She enters the room cautiously and takes a deep breath as every eye immediately turns upon her. She wasn't at all sure as to what she'd find, but she sees they're all anxious. She's still more than a bit scared herself, and well she should be. This was, after all, her first time, but they both did find. She greets the Dwarves with a nervous smile as she announces, "It's a boy."
A chorus of cheers ring out around the small cabin. Tankards of ale are thrust up into the air and then downed. Snow smiles, feeling a little bit better, and leaves again.
When their Princess returns again, the Dwarfs are still waiting, eager and anxious over her return. "It's a girl," she announces, beaming. Again, a chorus of "AYE!"s rings through the cabin, and once more they make a toast to the news.
On her third trip back in, Snow doesn't hesitate, "It's another boy."
"AYE!" They drink again; she leaves once more.
"It's a girl."
"AYE!" *Clink, clink*
"It's a boy."
"AYE!"
"It's two girls! Twins! We actually have twins!"
"AYE!" *Clink, clink*
She almost drags herself through their door. The Dwarfs take one look at her and begin chorusing before she can speak. "AYE!" The toast and down their tankards again. Snow White shakes her head. The Dwarfs will drink to anything, but what the heck? She reaches out and downs the tankard she hasn't touched all night until now.
Only afterward does she make the announcement, "We need more hay," and grins at the drunkard disgruntlement with which she's met. They're all for the drinking and celebrating, but none of them wants to be bothered. Typical, but that's her brothers. She leads the way back to the stables and the waiting horses, glad that Spring time only comes once a year.
The End
