"I'm secretly a shape-changer."
It went like this until the actual moment, when all banter flew out the window and the room crowded with nurses. All in all, however, it was an easy delivery that brought only one surprise--
"Twins?"
Padme now held two, a son and daughter, and she couldn't stop smiling, even though she was sure her face would freeze that way.
"One of each. That works, too."

"Of course it works," he beamed.
His grin stretched from ear to ear, and his eyes lit up with fatherly adoration as he reached out to hold his children. Of course, a portion of his happiness was due in part to the fact that Padme had not suffered, least of all died, in childbirth as his dream had foretold. But he wouldn't ever tell her that. He wouldn't dare. For now, there was this...and it was enough.

"Well...I guess we get to use both the names we thought of." She said with a small smile.

"That's right," he nodded, swaddling his newborn infants in his arms. "Luke and Leia, right?"

She glanced at the twins--the girl dark-haired like herself, the boy lighter, like his father--and smiled.
"Luke and Leia."

"They look like you. They're beautiful."

"I think he'll be more like you," she said thoughtful, then glanced up at her husband.
"I wish this could have been on Naboo, but...I'm just happy to have you here."

"Whether it's Naboo, Coruscant, or even the fires of Mustafar, as long as I'm with you," he responded in a tone of voice that was supposed to be romantic but instead came off as incredibly cheesy, "I'm happy."
He grinned after a considerable length of silence.
"They're strong in the Force. I can feel it."

"Well...there's a precedent in the family, after all." She says, smiling.
"And when they're old enough, they can learn from both of us."
The rest of the time spent in the hospital--for it was far more that than a mere infirmary--was a bit of a learning experience: for Padme, adjusting to the new change in her life, and the babies to the world. Eventually, she was allowed to go home, which was a great relief to her: whenever she had to recuperate from something, she always felt like she should be somewhere doing something. Carrying one child while her husband carried the other, she was all too glad to return to Le Rouge.
((I figure we could fast-forward, unless there was something else you wanted to do here?))
