Hypothetically Speaking

Silly one shot, R/J. Prompt hypothetical.

"Rodney! It's not stupid. It's proven…"
"Proven?! Are you insane? It's hypothetical at best. And it's stupid." Rodney leaned back in his chair.
Adjusting the headphones that stretched the width of her round belly, Jennifer glared at the scientist through the dim light of the bedroom. "Well, this will just have to be our 'scientific' study on the subject then, won't it? And be quiet, it's two am."
Rodney shook his head and good naturedly grinned back through the soft glow. "Okay, lets say, just for arguments sake, that it does work…why exactly does the baby need to know Spanish? I mean I doubt it will be terribly useful here in Pegasus"
With an exasperated sigh, Jennifer rolled her eyes expressively. "It's not Spanish, Rodney. It's Satedan."
Coughing violently, Rodney set his coffee to the side and swallowed his laughter. "Haha, Jennifer."
"What's so funny about that?" Jennifer whispered indignantly as the bed's other occupant shifted to burrow his head under his pillow.
"And where am I supposed to believe you found a recording of spoken Satedan, hm?"
"I didn't find it, Ronon made it for me and the baby, for when he's off world." Jennifer smiled at the disbelieving scientist and patted the large lump of warm flesh snoring softly beside her.
Unable to stop his laughter this time, Rodney doubled over and howled his mirth. "But…but, I…ohmygod…that's…he was…I heard…that was singing!"
Suddenly Ronon rose from the bed and giving the laughing duo a hard glare, yanked on his pillow, pulling fiercely until it popped free and stumbling slightly, headed out the door.
"Ronon, where are you going?" Jennifer called after her husband from where she was propped up against the headboard.
"Sheppard's."
"You know, laughing at him may not be the best way of convincing him that Rodney's a good name for the baby."
Rodney considered this for a moment. "Yeah, but I've been thinking, do I really want a little Ronon running around here with my na…ompff."
THE END
