*mad and ferocious barking greets the doorbell* *after a few moments, Jack opens the door, looking suspicious* Oh! Hi there. *grins and opens the door wide* Come on in!

Glyndwr: *is a corgi* *sniffs around suspiciously but settles down soon enough, wagging his tail and trying to stand up to reach her hands*

[history_woman]

*a bit surprised by the dog* Oh! Dear me, he's an excited one. *smiles and pets Glyndwr briefly before walking inside*

[cjharkness]

Yeah. He's a good boy though. What can I do for you today, Miz Smythe? *gestures to a seat* Want something to drink?

[history_woman]

*sits down and smiles* A lemonade would be lovely, thank you. I've just come to see how your dessert projects are coming along, and I brought you a little gift.

[cjharkness]

*wanders into the kitchen and returns with a lemonade* Well, I haven't been doing much baking recently in favor of decorating a nursery. *grins* I figure if I do it, I can manage to avoid any religious undertones that might creep in by accident. *smiles* A gift?

[history_woman]

*thanks him for the lemonade and laughs* I see. I've had a lot of free time recently and thought I could do something useful, so I made these. *pulls out a pair of green knitted baby boots from her handbag*

[cjharkness]

*takes them and laughs, sticking his fingers in them and wiggling them* They're so tiny! *looks very pleased and leans over to give her a quick kiss* Thank you!

[history_woman]

*blushes a little* Oh, you're welcome! I tried to pick a neutral color so they could be for a boy or girl.

[cjharkness]

*chuckles* Green's good. I'm doing the nursery in green. *shifts to get into a more comfortable position* It's a boy, we've found out. He's always moving. He's gonna be like me.

[history_woman]

*smiles* He's going to be lovely then. Have you thought of a name yet?

[cjharkness]

Yeah. *smiles a bit sadly* David Ianto. After Ianto's father.

[history_woman]

That's a good name. Preserves the memory of the namesake in a way.

[cjharkness]

*nods* That's what I was thinking. He lost his father so recently.

[history_woman]

Oh, I'm so sorry. Did he know about the baby?

[cjharkness]

*shakes his head* No, we hadn't told Ianto's parents yet. Something about pregnancy in men freaking them out.

[history_woman]

Well it is rather rare in this century. But it doesn't matter where the baby comes from, as long as it's born into a good family. *smiles*
