Daddy! That's a horrible thing to say!

I met my daughter, isn't that exciting?

*runs his hand through his hair*

Well, Eru, kid, the last time Iooked at you two weeks ago you weren't half that size. What the hell happened?

*blinks* Fuck no, not Nerwen. *maybe actually looks scared?*

	From: telerinprincess	Date: 03/06/2007 16:37:25

I'm pregnant, Daddy! I'm supposed to get fat!

*frowns* No, not Nerwen. Finrod. Came back as a girl. *smiles a little dreamily* He always was a bit delicate, as heroes go.

	From: telerinking	Date: 03/06/2007 16:44:05

I know,kid, but, damn.

...

*busts out laughing* You're, right, baby, he always was a queen.

	From: telerinprincess	Date: 03/06/2007 16:46:38

*faintly* Don't be unkind. He knew how to stand up for himself.

*shakes her head* What was I saying? Daddy, did you see the cute dress I got?

	From: telerinking	Date: 03/06/2007 16:51:08

*under his breath* Puuuussssssssyyyyyy.

*plops down on your bed*

*feigning interest (he's good at that)!* No, Princess, I didn't. Show me. Can you still fit in it?

	From: telerinprincess	Date: 03/06/2007 16:56:13

*smiles brightly and shows you the very pretty, tent-like pink dress*

Clothes don't really fit properly anymore. *lipwobble*

	From: telerinking	Date: 03/06/2007 16:58:18

It's very moo-moo-ish pretty, honey.

*pats your shoulder delicately* Not to worry. The way you're moving there you shouldn't be fat much longer. *gives you a look* Unless you keep the weight on after the baby. Your mother would do that, you know, and it was never pleasant.

	From: telerinprincess	Date: 03/06/2007 17:30:03

*looks completely horrified by this suggestion*

Daddy, that's gross. I don't want to be fat forever.

	From: telerinking	Date: 03/06/2007 17:32:19

*wags a finger at you* You be sure not to be. Then not even Finarfin would love you and he loves all of Eru's creatures, great and small.

*chuckls* Don't worry, honey. Of course you won't be fat. You know how to watch your weight. Plus that kid's going to keep you up at all hours anyway. You won't have time to eat!

	From: telerinprincess	Date: 03/06/2007 17:39:39

Oh.

*looks at you, faintly worried* Finarfin doesn't love me, Daddy.

	From: telerinking	Date: 03/06/2007 17:45:20

Oh. *looks at you closely, as if he's going to say something tender to make you feel better* ...You're better off without him anyway. Who wants some whack-job religious nut as a relative. Pssh.

	From: telerinprincess	Date: 03/06/2007 17:54:03

*hopefully* Do you think so? He seemed different in the bookshop.

	From: telerinking	Date: 03/06/2007 17:55:51

I know so! *gives you a grin* Now pluck up, kid. Your face'll get stuck that way.

	From: telerinprincess	Date: 03/07/2007 03:03:29

*forces a smile*

Thank you, Daddy.
