Echo was absolutely still as she felt their son reacting inside her. She could feel happy tears welling up, knowing just how thrilled Bastian was by the way he was moving around. Resting on hand on her stomach, near his, and the other on his shoulder for a moment, she allowed herself to give in to how right this felt. She was so overcome that it took a moment for his words to filter through to her. She blinked, trying to comprehend what he was really saying. "Namely, Himeros?" She had known he didn't want Himeros involved, but what did he mean about making this about her, him, and Bastian?
She nodded at his first question, the baby definitely could hear them. "Who I am..." She leaned back for a moment, letting him talk to their child without her interrupting. Still, she couldn't stop herself from repeating him. "Your daddy." Speaking in a soft but sure tone Echo lightly squeezed Narcissus' shoulder before going for the notebook. She wrote quickly. 'He can hear us, he likes being here with his daddy.'
