Michelle

Seconded.

Chief

Absolutely not.

Bree

Motion passed. There’s always room for being fanciful in this messy world.

Michelle

We can dub mine Four. He says that number so often, it’s burned into my brain. I swear, if this baby is a girl, we should name her Ivy. Like, IV. The Roman numerals I+V=4.

Michelle

You get it?

Michelle

Right?

Bree

That’s actually super cute!! I hope you go with that name.

Michelle

Wait… did you just accidentally confirm mybaby is a girl???

Michelle

I wasn’t ready to know yet! Troy will be heartbroken!

Bree

Calm down, Princess Not-So-Perfect. I’ve confirmed nothing. IF she’s a girl, call her Ivy. If he’s a boy, name him Big Fat Whiny Head, Just Like His Daddy.

Bree

BFWHJLHD for short. Sounds kinda like Bwefald. It works.

Ace

Please don’t name my nephew Bwefald. I wouldn’t be able to take him seriously. Ever. And when he’s an adult, I might punch him in the face every single day until “Bwefald” becomes a normal name. Like, Beau or Barnaby or Buccaneer Bob.

Ace

Dubbing mine John Doe Hamilton. JDH for short. His name is easy, since he’s already lived with an alias for years. Bree, you wanna name yours? Or shall we go with Taco Bell and call it a day?

I choke out a noisy snort and pray the sound doesn’t wake Archer.

Bree

I’m good with Taco Bell, but only if we add ‘the third’ to the end. It’s distinguished and fancy.
