In royal protector, can I ask for Bail and Breha as godparents of that precious newborn please? They could be rulers of an ally kingdom ?
Humming lightly,
Obi-Wan looked up from his makeshift desk in Qui-Gon’s office under
the window to wave the letter a the Emperor. “Breha and Bail just
responded, they’ll be delighted to be Poppy’s godparents and are
looking forward to her naming ceremony.” He smiled warmly at his
husband.
The Emperor stood,
moving over to read the letter over Obi-Wan’s shoulder while
reaching down to gently pet Poppy’s head as she slept in a deep
blue sling with black embroideries shaped like vines tied to
Obi-Wan’s body over a shoulder. The sound of her bearers heartbeat,
the heat and the smell was doing wonders for her nap time and it
allowed both parents to spend time with their little one as they
switched the sling between them.
And it made feeding
easier too for Obi-Wan when that time arrived.
Rumbling happily at
the friendly tone in the letter, Qui-Gon nodded and pressed a tender
kiss to Obi-Wan’s temple. “Just two more weeks and its time my
love, we get to show off our little one to the public.” He murmured
lovingly.
“Hopefully by
then I’ll be able to walk properly instead of looking like I’m
bow legged.” Obi-Wan sighed a bit while sitting back in his chair.
“To be fair to
you love, you did press a baby out of you and in the last nine months
you’ve been walking around with added weight to your body because
of said baby,” Qui-Gon said fondly, stroking Poppy’s head again.
“Though I don’t think either of us regret this option.”
Throwing his love
an exasperated look, Obi-Wan smirked. “Of course I don’t regret
it but I’d rather be able to walk normally once more and hopefully
get back in the sparring ring. I know I lost muscle mass while
carrying Poppy and though I don’t mind some flab, I do want that
strength back.” He frowned a bit.
Humming softly,
Qui-Gon nodded before taking the letter and setting it back on the
desk, offering Obi-Wan his hands to boost the other up on his feet.
“Indeed love but the clock shows its three pm, its time for some
food for both of us and I imagine Ahsoka is on her way to retrieve
us.” He smirked.
Right on cue there
was a knock on the door and both exchanged amused looks even as the
knock startled Poppy awake and had her grizzling in unhappiness
before she hid into Obi-Wan’s warm chest as Ahsoka popped her head
in to announce it was indeed time for brunch.
Taking Qui-Gon’s
arm, Obi-Wan settled into his husband side with a pleased little
sigh, wondering how he got so lucky.
There was still
problems, he was not about to forget the murder attempt that had lead
to discovering he was pregnant after all.
And then there was
the poisoning attempt on Obi-Wan himself.
But Obi-Wan had the
leads, he wasn’t far from discovering the culprit and he knew it.
‘And when I am
sure… when I know irreversibly who targeted my Emperor and
family… they will pay.’ Obi-Wan thought to himself,
squeezing down on the others arm carefully with Poppy sleeping
against his breast.
