Seph: | So have you thought of a name yet? |
Feyn: | *raises an eyebrow* I thought you were the one who was going to give him one. |
Seph: | I thought that you might have been inclined to help. |
Feyn: | Me? Not at all. I'm not good with names. |
Seph: | Gee. I suppose it's a good thing your parents named you. =P |
Feyn: | *grin* I've always been grateful. ____ and I have good names. |
Silren: | Why don't you ask the boy if he has a name? |
Seph: | . . . |
Feyn: | . . . |
Seph: | *laughs* You know, I'd never thought of that. |
Feyn: | Excellent idea, Silren. |
Seph: | Hey, how come you've never asked him his name?! |
Feyn: | . . . well, it didn't seem to matter... |
Seph: | Good gods. Never mind. Go ask him. |
Feyn: | What's your name, boy? |
*Everyone waits*
|
Boy: | I don't have one. |
Feyn: | He says he doesn't have one. |
Seph: | We heard. *sigh* |
Feyn: | Just give him a name that doesn't sound so bad and it'll do. |
Seph: | Names are important, damn it. |
Feyn: | *raises an eyebrow* |
Seph: | *sigh* We need to pick something that suits him, and something he'll like. Your name is something someone identifies you with; without it, you're just a...a something that has no shape, so to speak. |
Feyn: | We knew Razkil just fine, even when he didn't have a name. |
Seph: | I know, I know. But names help to give you a more...solid existence... |
Feyn: | I suppose that has a ring of truth to it. |
Silren: | I agree with Seph. I prefer being a 'Silren' now. |
Errand: | I like being 'Errand'! =^_^= |
Ferrahn: | 'Ferrahn' has a nice sound to it. *purrs* |
Razkil: | I like being called 'Razkil'. |
Feyn: | Well, then, good job so far, Seph. I'm sure the boy will be happy with whatever you can come up for him. |
Seph: | What if I name him after you? |
Feyn: | No! That is _not_ a good idea. A long time ago, I'd helped someone name...something...and I've always wished I never did. |
Seph: | Oh. Erm... |
Errand: | Call him Toy! =^_^= |
Ferrahn: | *purrs* I like that. |
Feyn: | *grin* |
Seph: | No. =P |
Errand: | Fish! |
Ferrahn: | *chuckles* I like that too. |
Seph: | Stop making fun of him! |
*after throwing around some more names*
|
Seph: | What about Variq? |
Feyn: | That's an unusual name. |
Ferrahn: | I'd prefer a name that flows like mine. |
Errand: | Variq... |
Razkil: | Variq... |
Feyn: | Variq, eh? It'll do. Variq, what do you think? |
Boy: | *after a long pause* I'm...Variq. |
Feyn: | Good boy. |
Seph: | . . . We can still come up with something else. |
Feyn: | Why bother? He's Variq now. |
Errand: | Okay, he's named now! Tell Variq to play cards with us, Feyn. |
Feyn: | Look, Errand, I'm sure he'll be happy to play with you if you'd just ask him. |
Razkil: | But Variq never wants to do anything until you tell him to. |
Feyn: | Really? I've never really noticed... |
Seph: | *mutters* You never notice anything about him. |
Feyn: | *murmurs* Now be nice. |
Silren: | Come here, Variq. Feyn wants you to play with us. |
Feyn: | Yes, listen to Silren, boy. |
Errand: | His name is Variq now. |
Feyn: | Yes, of course. I'll have to get used to that. *grin* |
Seph: | You know...sometimes, I'm sure you're a real jerk. |
Feyn: | Don't hurt my feelings like that, sweet. |
Seph: | =P |
Errand: | Feyn's always a jerk. =^_^= |
Feyn: | The dear rat does like to get his word in. |
Errand: | =P |
Errand: | Run along and play and leave the adults alone. |
Errand: | *snorts* Come on, Variq! |
Seph: | *grin* |
Feyn: | I told you they'd get on fine with him. *grin* |
