((I...could care less who actually enters this thread as long as Trucido's eventually here XD Let's make this as weird as we want)) "RUUUBBBYYYYYYYYY!!!!" The Alberisato queen continued to shriek loudly, calling for Ruby, Trucido, Lamuria--anyone at the moment, really. She was already in pain and had the servants worried or upset, many of them followed and attempted in vain to get her to settle down. "Milady, being stressed won't help the birthing process any," one of them cried, trying to take Lilith by the hand and lead her to her room. Lilith responded first by swatting at them but then reluctantly took a servant's hand, squeezing it everytime the contractions got worse. "Where is Trucido? I don't want to do any of this right now!" Lilith cried as she was brought to her room. "He's been sent for but you need to relax, my queen. It'll be better for both you and the baby!" Everyone around Lilith tried to remain optimistic. She gave them a worried look, despite being reassured of everything. There was once a time when a younger Lilith looked longingly at the idea of being married and having children...and now that it was happening she wasn't so sure it was a good idea anymore.

Trucido rushed in as soon as he heard that is wife was going into labor. He was still covered in dirt, and the shovel was in his hand as he walked to his lovely wife. "Darling, I am here, how are you doing?" he asked her in a loving tone, and grabbed her hand.

Lilith's heart flipped when she saw Trucido. The sight of him was a comforting one, and yet at the same it boiled her blood to see him coming in so...uh....late. But not...
"I'd be doing better if you were here earlier when I needed you!!" Lilith snapped, breaking her hand free from his and slapping him. Servants were by her side again trying to calm her down.
"You need to go get ready, milady. The baby will be here soon," they told her. She pursed her lips and gave Trucido a glare. Really, she had no real reason to be angry at him but she...couldn't help it?
"I don't want this.." she mumbled, scared out of her mind.

"Don't be scared. I am here, dear." He said. He could feel her fear, and he was there to take it. "Just think, you are going to have a little child to hold in your arms."

Lilith bit her lip and took a deep breath. She let herself be lead away and relaxed on the bed as she was told to, the whole time she was afraid of what was going to happen. What if the baby died? It was alive earlier...what if something went horribly wrong?
But she did look forward to having a little baby to hold in her arms like Trucido said. That thought alone made her smile.
"That's what we want to see, milady. A good smile on your face. I'll take good care of you," the palace midwife spoke up to her, a gentle smile on her face. She sent for an assistant to help Lilith get ready as she turned herself to face Trucido.
"Lord Damnedblood, are you comfortable staying here or would you rather wait outside? We need her to stay as calm as possible so if you can't handle yourself during the process, you'll have to wait outside."

"I can handle myself. I have seen some disgusting things that I have... caused." He said as he looked at his wife. "You are glowing, my dear."

Lilith smiled faintly before she was struck with pain again and the midwife was by her side, calming her down and walking her through everything. As the time got near, Lilith's focus left Trucido entirely as she was carefully urged through the long, painful process.
She sweated, she cried, she yelled in pain, and the whole time the nurse was right there to pat her head and help her along and coach her to those very last seconds when a small body appeared into the world. Lilith was happy to have it done with, she smiled and breathed heavily, almost ready to get up when the midwife suddenly laid her back and said, "Wait, milady, we need to get the other one out now."
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE OTHER ONE?!"
And...here we go again.

"Another one?!" Trucido said, "Darling, This is wonderful. Come on I know you can make through it. I have faith in you." He grabbed her hand, and he had a tear of joy.

"If this is so wonderful then WHY AREN'T YOU GIVING BIRTH TO THEM!?!" Lilith shrieked and the nurse waved her hands at both her and Trucido.
"Both of you settle down, we can't lose focus!" she said with as much respect as possible, yet firmly to further prove the situation's importance. She tended back to Lilith, whom of which was all too reluctant to go along with the rest of the birthing procedure, and in another few long-waiting moments there came the cries of a second child in the room.
Lilith laid back and rested, thankful that it was finally over with. She wanted to cry, it had all felt so horrible to her. Her eyes widened as the two children were brought to her and Trucido however, upon looking over them and holding the tiny figures in her arms she felt an odd sensation of happiness.
"Look at them..." she mumbled, running a gentle finger over the tiniest hands she'd ever seen in her life.

"They are so beautiful..." He said as he rubbed Lilith's face, "Well, what are they? Boy boy? Girl Girl?"

Lilith blinked, about to comment confusedly but then remembered that Trucido was a man...and men were generally a little lost, especially when it came to children.
"A boy and a girl, darling," Lilith answered patiently, "see? He's the boy, he has your eyes...we need to give them good names."

"...Do you have any name in mind, dear?" He asked as he lightly touched his daughter's face. "I have one for our son."

"Oh really?" Lilith asked, "what name would this be?"
She looked down at her children again, running her fingers over the little girl's head then and saying, "this little one I insist must be Ayla. Doesn't she look like an Ayla to you?"

"Yea, she does." He said as he rubbed under her chin. He looked over at the boy with his dark red eyes, and the boy blinked. "...Waldron."

"W-Waldron?" Lilith thought that was an odd name for a boy, but a unique one nonetheless. Both names were unique and that was probably the way she wanted it to be. She smiled and held her babies close to her.
"Waldron and Ayla. This is so wonderful, they'll grow up to be a wonderful prince and princess and make us happy."
