Evie
There is time aplenty for planning and preparation, gods knew she’d been torn between contending with her emotions and with trying to plot out a to-do list just on the journey home. That’s simply who they are. But for now the revelry is foremost in their minds. Evie can scarcely stop smiling.
“Leafchange, she said. Mid to late - the first break in the chain of Ignatius winter births,” she laughs, wondering idly - in the same way as meaningless fortunes and horoscopes - if it means anything for the child to be. She’d never put any weight on their child, but perhaps if anything it would be a good omen of individuality.
Pressing eager and preening into each kiss across her face, Evie’s grin gentles into a sentimental smile. “We’ve always deserved it. But perhaps more some times than others.” Amusement writes itself in the pink of her cheeks and the glitter of blue eyes. “Amhran will be easy enough to tell. I’m not really sure about Erebos - he’s old enough to understand the idea at least. Hopefully he’ll take it well given he knows what a sibling is, and doesn’t hate it.” She snorts a laugh, grateful for the fact there’d been no bumps in that particular road. That may mean they’re in for a few now though.

I see you when you chase the dreams inside your head
and when you laugh and love until the bitter end
and when you laugh and love until the bitter end
