[The video turns on to reveal Alexia sleeping in bed, is the worst possible condition you are likely to ever see her. Her hair is loose and a tangled mess at that. Her dress is ruined from being torn, covered with dirt and other unmentionable mess.

And oh yes, she's holding a new born baby in her arms. The baby girl is properly swaddled and sleeping peacefully in her mother's arms.

After a moment, Alexia opens her eyes and takes notice of the recording. She sighs slightly and carefully shifts to a sitting position. She must look as dignified as possible despite her current state. Meanwhile the child sleeps on.]

Of course. I should have known you would want an update sooner, rather than later.

My dear community, may I introduce you to my daughter? Prudence Alessandra. [She lifts the crook of her elbow so that the camera might catch a better view of the sleeping baby.]

I cannot tell if all of you sincerely mean what you say or if you are only being kind.

[glimmerous_fop]

Of course I mean it. I've never seen a baby that wasn't cute before...well naked mole rats are the exception, but it's hard to look at an infant and think anything else.

[carriesparasol]

I do not know if cute was a word I would use to describe her currently. Though I have been informed that a child's appearance improves with age.

[glimmerous_fop]

Really? Well, I've been told that my tastes are a bit unique, she's pretty cute to me.

[carriesparasol]

No. You are not the only one who has said such things about her.

[glimmerous_fop]

Then there must be something to it.

[carriesparasol]

Perhaps.

So far I find her to be a rather adaptable child; a trait that will be most advantageous for her.

[glimmerous_fop]

At that age kids are pretty adaptable, it's the colicky ones you worry about.

[carriesparasol]

I cannot imagine we shall have to worry about that from Prudence. [She has much stranger problems to deal with after all.]
