Sister! *hugs carefully* Oh, can I hold him? And I know we can't name him quite yet but have you thought of any names and you better not be naming him in Elvish because even if you are going to insist on raising him in Gondor he's still Haradric and isn't he going to get any darker than that? *takes breath*
Oh, and I brought presents for him: this and this.
You have exquisite taste in gifts. What, nothing for ME? *bats eyelashes* Yes you can hold him and no he doesn't have a name yet and he might get darker with sunlight and it will probably be partially Elvish and don't give me that Look.
*wanders in with food, food, and more food, and several hungry wolves doing their best to trip him and steal all of it* There are worse things than being named after a tree, you know--for instance, being saddled with a name no one can translate without giving themselves a headache, or having so many different names not even your own family is quite sure what to call you.
*glare* What's wrong with a good solid Haradric name? *goes for the soft underbelly* When you do decide, Nadiyah, I think any of our brothers would be honored if you decided to name your son in their memory.

*sets the food on a table and lures the wolves out into the hall with some ham* *locks them out except for Mith*
There's nothing wrong with a good, solid Haradric name. *watches his son fondly, even if he is being held by Annoying Brother-In-Law* *is still in too much of a happy-new-father daze to be effectively baited*
*gives Nadiyah her babe back when he starts to squirm* It's more complicated than that. *switches to their mothertongue* You surely must believe, 'diyah, that I came back as soon as I was able.
*does the same* I didn't mean to be callous, Hana. It's just getting hard to take death seriously around here. Then again, I guess it's better to take it seriously and be wrong than to make fun of it and be wrong. e.e I'm very very very very very glad you're back. And I believe you. I do.
...please hand me a rag. Baby spit-up is not something I'm liking.
*looks around for rag* *shrugs and gives her item of clothing that looks as if it might be Halbarad's* He is a very beautiful babe. I am thankful, I think he takes after you in looks.
Oh, and I brought presents for him: this and this.

*stubborn* I will not call him by anything but his proper name. I'm not having my nephew named after a tree or something.
