She'd thought about it before, but she hadn't had the opportunity to talk to Eric about it. Having spent the majority of the pregnancy apart, they didn't have much time to talk of things. 

She had an idea in mind, but she wasn't going to say it first. 

"I haven't thought of much about it." She told him truthfully. A thousand hands felt like they were still on her, and she released the child to Eric.

He held the little bundle in his hands, staring the cooing child. Never feeling anything quite this intensily before, Eric didn't know what to do and was silent to Angelica's response for a minute or two. He looked at her and a smile tugged at the corner of his lips. 

"Marcus?" 

Eric was unsure how Angelica would respond. Eric didn't know his wife's relationship with the late-commander very well, she didn't talk about it much. But Eric knew his loss devastated her just by the tone in her voice. It might mean the world to her, and hopefully give her some sort of closure.

It was the name she'd toyed with, the one she'd wanted to suggest but didn't know how to bring up without sparking an uncomfortable conversation between them. 

"It's perfect." The woman smiled, doing her best not to let herself cry as he held the infant.

Eric offered the baby back to Angelica. "Would you like to hold little Marcus Stafford?" He asked, proud of the name. Proud of the small family the two started. "I have a few things to really quick, the city should probably be informed who their new heir is."

Eric was brimming with an excitement he hadn't felt since he was knighted.
