Like were his parents drunk when they named him or something? Well, knowing Cid I wouldn't be surprized, but here's a different possible explanation.
Disclaimer: I do not own ffx, ffx-2 or any of the characters, names or places in this fanfiction.
So don't sue me! And Cid has awful grammer so don't get mad at me for that either.
P.S. Rikku's mom didn't have a name so i decided her name was Havara. P.P.S. This whole thing would take place in Al Bhed, but writing it like that would not only take me forever it would also bore you to death so for the good of everyone it's in English.
Oh Brother!
"Congradluations! It's a boy!" The midwife beamed handing over the struggling infant. "You should
be very proud"
Cid looked at his wife holding his first son and scowled. "Well I sure as hell ain't proud of the
fact that this little tyke hasn't even got a name yet." He tried his hardest to conceal his glee as his
son grabbed hold of it's mother's finger.
"I've always liked the name Bartholomew," Havara suggested questioningly.
"No that ain't right." Cid barked. "I want him to have a more Powerful name. Like hm.
Thorad"
"What kind of a nam is Thorad?" Havara said with disgust. "It sounds like a kind of sausage, or
maybe part of an insect"
"It sounds like the best salvager of all time." Cid huffed angrily.
The midwife sensed this would soon become a fight if she didn't act quickly. "I have an idea!"
she said. "What if we let him decide? The first thing he says that sounds even remotly like a name
should become his name." Cid and Havara looked as though this sounded suspect, but both slowly nodded
in agreement.
"Brrrrr" the child hummed. "Burrrrrrr Ther." He looked pleased with himself for having made this
sound.
"You see? He said Ther. He must mean Thorad," Cid stated.
"Isn't it obvious he was Trying to say Bartholomew?" Havara returned.
The midwife meekly muttered, "It sounded to me like he said Brother"
"Brother?" Cid pondered.
"Brother." Havara echoed. "Yes, I like it"
"Then his name is Brother!" Cid shouted so loudly it made Brother flinch. "Now lemme hold him"
Havara grinned and handed over the child.
A/N: really short, I know. But this one is better written than my Leblanc fic, don't you think? (heehee now you have to go read it to compare ) Now hit that little review button!
