Nightmare attempted to get comfortable in the foreign bed beneath him, too exhausted to wrinkle his nasal cavity at the scent of sterile chemicals in the air. His tendrils laid limp on either side of the stiff white-sheeted furnishing, forcing his arms to cradle the tiny infant skeleton peacefully sleeping against his chest.

He didn't notice Sci approach his bedside until the scientist began speaking. "Alright, Nightmare. Everything is in order, and you'll be released from the maternity ward in a few days after you are confirmed to be in good health after that... process."

Sci nervously glanced down at his clipboard, adding, "But- Uh... A- are you sure you want to name your son 'I Am Murder?'"

The dark lord's brows furrowed, and a frown tugged down his weary smile.

"What," He swiftly yet carefully shifted his son to one arm and snatched the object.

His cyan eyelight examined the document, specifically the part bearing his son's registered birth name.

"Killer!"

The lethal Sans in question sat in an uncomfortable-looking chair several inches away.

At Nightmare's growl, he looked up from his phone (no doubt having been using the camera function to obtain a plethora of baby photos) and shrugged with a playful smirk. "What? It's a good name!"

"No, it isn't. Our son would have to introduce himself as 'I am I Am Murder!'"

"Yeah! That's exactly why it's perfect!" The target-souled skeleton insisted.

Nightmare narrowed his eye socket at the other. Thus, causing him to pout and slump back in his seat while saying, "...Fine. We'll name him something else- but 'I Am Murder' will always be his name in spirit."
