A/N This is a collection of drabbles, oneshots, scenes and short stories surrounding the family of Pirates' Swoop. This won't be one of my regular stories with regular updates, I'll be doing these on the side of working on whatever full-length I am doing. (Go check out my profile and other works!) Most of the collection will be K+ but some may be T. I'll make sure to mark which ones do have a higher rating. I hope you enjoy! Don't forget to review.

New Born Troubles

The very newborn baby nestled sweetly in his mother's arms, eyes closed a relaxed expression on his face. Alanna of Pirates' Swoop and Olau cradled the baby she had given birth to only an hour before. Her husband sat on the bed beside her, a look of wonder on his face. He gazed at his wife and new born child with such reverence.

The infant had a patch of brown hair a few shades darker then his father. When his eyes had been open they had been amethyst like his mother. His skin was soft and pink, his small hand were curled into fists. The baby was sucking on his lower lip as he slept.

The other occupants of the room watched in silence. The grandparents Myles of Olau and his lady Eleni; the godparents King Jonathon and Queen Thayet; family friends Raoul, Gary, Buri, Coram and Rispah. The baby had long since stopped nursing and Alanna's nightgown was hanging open, but no one really cared. Everyone had eyes only for the baby.

"I can't believe we made something so beautiful." Alanna whispered, eyes tearing over. She stroked the cheek of her newborn son, trying to keep from crying. George chuckled slightly at her; it had only been a few hours ago that she had been cursing the baby(and George for putting him there)... then again she had been in labor.

George leaned down and kissed Alanna's forehead, smoothing back her sweat soaked hair. "I can, lass." He told her, putting a hand on the baby gently. He smiled down at them, love filling his eyes.

"What shall we name him, George?" Alanna looked away from her son's face for maybe the first time since he had been diapered, bundled and placed in her arms by Maude. Her eyes met George's as he considered her words.

"Let's name him after your brother." George said cautiously, after a long pause.

One of the tears that had been threatening to fall trickled down Alanna's cheek. Her smile was watery, sad, yet blissful at the same time. "Thom." Her eyes returned to the newly christened Thom. "Our baby."

"Our baby." George echoed, kissing the baby's forehead and then kissing Alanna's lips. Thayet gave a sigh of contentment, leaning her head against Jon's shoulder. The new parents smiled down upon their child. Thom chose that moment to wake up and start wailing. A very distinctive scent assaulted the onlookers' senses.

"George, take your baby." Alanna's eyes were panicked as she handed the crying infant over to it's father.

George hugged the balling newborn to his chest, supporting his head. "Thom just needs changing. I'll be back."

A few moments after George left Buri, resisting the urge to laugh, asked "So Thom is your son when he's asleep and sweet, but when he needs changing or is crying he's George's son?" Alanna's scowl made even the best efforts to stay serious fail. George returned with Thom to find his wife scowling and everyone else laughing.

A/N This one is a little shorter then I thought. I intend to make the rest of the collection to have a more humorous aspect. ~Dawnfire
