Another "cub" joins the pride!

[Adofo]

Adofo: You think the rest of the pride can meet their new princess first? They are really excited!

[Iri]

Christen looked at him, arching an eyebrow pointedly. She was tired and didn't feel like having the rest of the pride fawn over her newborn child, but she made her expression blank and unreadable and didn't say anything.

[Adofo]

Adofo: I mean....I could do it while you sleep but....if you really don't want too, the don't have too.

[Iri]

Christen shook her head at that. "No," she replied flatly, "because Ekanem needs sleep and I don't think she'd be happy being displayed when she's tired. How about later?" she suggested, "when both she and I aren't feeling sleep deprived? The pride can wait."

[Adofo]

Adofo: .....Yes dear.
He noticed how harsh she was starting to sound again. But he didn't show it because he knew it was just her hormones.
He got up and went outside to the rest of the pride.
Adofo: It's a girl! Her name is Ekanem! .....But.....Christen really doesn't want to be disturbed. She's really tired.....sorry everyone....we'll have to wait a bit.

[Iri]

The pride looked accepting of that. "We understand," Nala replied, "and it's fine. We can wait. It's no big deal." She smiled. "Oh, and congratulations, too!"

[Adofo]

Adofo: Thanks!
Sam: Dad.....does that mean we can't see them either?!
Adofo: I'm sorry kids...your mother is very tired. Later....okay?

[Iri]

[Should I play Shannon? Or however her name is spelled?]

[Adofo]

(Sure. And it's Shanon. Only 1 N. That's what separates her from her grandmother)

[Iri]

[Oh. Whoopsies. Sorreh. Cx]

Shanon looked a little disappointed, but nodded reluctantly. "All right."
