The house on Naboo [Monday afternoon]

It wasn't that Ben and Ender didn't trust Fandom, but for the first weekend of their daughter's life, they weren't wild about being on an island with a history of weird weekends.

They'd just met her. They didn't want to re-meet her as a pony or a 20 year old or during a rain of tuna. After Ender's class, they'd headed to Naboo and then called Ben's father, who'd had much better Portalocity luck then they'd had (or, as Ben privately suspected, the name "Grand Master Skywalker" had a little more pull than regular old Ben Skywalker did).

He was arriving in a few minutes, and Ben was looking down at his tiny daughter in her portable crib and smiling. "He's going to love you," he murmured.

"Thank you," Ender agreed. "It's been an amazing few days, but..."

"A little bit," Ender said wryly. "I know, we're newbies."

Luke's smile at them both was fond. "Yes, you are. It looks good on you."

Ender smiled. "I'd make a quip about how I should've known that being exhausted would actually make me happy," he said, "But that doesn't quite fit."

"Don't worry about being witty just yet," Luke said, laughing. "We love you anyway."

"I love all of you, too," Ender said, with a wry chuckle, "But you double for letting me have some naptime."

Luke made shooing motions with his free hand. "Go, nap. Come back in a few hours."

"Okay, okay," Ender said.

He snagged Ben's hand and tugged him down the hall.

"Beautiful sleep," Ender agreed, crawling under the blankets and curling up against Ben.
endsthegame: (is sleeping)

Ender followed suit not long after, exhausting overriding his usual difficulties sleeping quite handily.
