The six months of pregnancy passed quickly. Now, yes normally it would be nine, correct? But think, a skeletal child does not have organs, skin, eyes, ext. So pregnancy would be shorter for the species. Considering the body only has to create a soul and a weak skeletal frame.

One day Encre and Fallacy were in a meeting, working out some issues with the mortal/vampire marriage. Another kingdom had issues with their marriage and Fallacy promised Encre he wouldn't kill them. But in the meeting pain shot through Encre, he tugged on Fallacy's shirt, his hand at his stomach as he sunk down slightly. "Encre!? Dear what is it!?" Fallacy blurted worry evident in his voice, "T-The baby-" was all Encre managed to get out before another wave of pain washed over him, a small scream escaping his mouth.

Fallacy quickly called Suave and they got Encre into the clinic, Fallacy took Encres hand as he went through labor
God Fallacy hated labor, especially with what happened to Calamimi, he watched his own wife turn to dust so long ago. He didnt dare say anything about the fact Encre had slightly fractured his hand. He just comforted Encre anyway he could, then, a baby's crying arose, relief washed over Encres face, he reached for infant which Suave hen handed him, "Je peux enfin the, rencontrer Mon enfant précieux." (I can finally meet you, my precious child. At least according to Google correct me if its wrong.) He cradled the baby like if he moved slightly it would turn to dust, he had slipped into French which was his first language, he looked at Fallacy, "Amour, allez chercher Jasper, sîl vous plaît." (Love, go fetch Jasper please) Encre said, Fallacy looked over at Suave, "He asked you to get Jasper." he stated. Fallacy nodded and walked out of the room, Jasper and Plume sat just outside both had worried expressions, "Jasper, come meet your brother." Fallacy said smiling down at the two, Jasper jumoed up, "Is Encre okay!?" He asked panicked, "He's fine, he requested to see you." Fallacy said, Jasper nodded and followed Fallacy inside, Encre sat looking lovingly down at his newborn. Jasper walked over and sat down next to the mortal who proceeded to gently hand him the sleeping vampire. Jasper held him like he as delicate as silence. Fallacy chuckled at Jaspers cautiousness, he'd never seen his son so careful with anything, not even glass. Fallacy turned to Encre, "Have you thought of a name yet Love?" Fallacy asked, "Oui, Pente." Encre stated, "Pente it is then." Fallacy said sitting down next to Encre. Encre leaned against his lover and quickly fell asleep. Fallacy chuckled again. "Jasper may I have Pente?" Fallacy asked, Jasper nodded and slowly handed Fallacy the sleeping child, Fallacy cradled the baby in the crock of his arm, supporting his head with his forearm. "He's so small, well it does make since looking at Encre." Fallacy stated, looking at the petite skeleton sleeping under his arm. He smirked and kissed Encre's forehead. Pente awoke and made eye contact with Fallacy. "Aw, he has Encre's eyes." Fallacy cooed, Jasper giggled, "He also has got markings." Jasper stated pointing to the flame like texture on his cheeks, "So do you, huh, you have the same eyes as Encre as well, how strange. Considering neither your mother nor I have such strange eyes." Fallacy stated, "Oh? Hm, strange indead." Jasper stated.
