New Rooms

Monday, June 10, 2013

Idiot, he’s an idiot. It amazes me sometimes how brilliant Sephiroth can be and still be the world’s biggest idiot. So during our walk though the woods yesterday, my dear husband not only got a tick on his chest because he couldn’t be bothered with bug spray, but he walked though poison ivy… so I ended up walking back to the ship. Other than that it was surreal. Knowing I was standing near where my granddad died. My mom found a part of the ship while we were out, which was kind of nice. I mean it’s some closer ya know?

After that we headed back to the room for our last night. Sephy spent most of it in the tub, but it didn’t stop the poison ivy. Needless to say I made him sleep on the couch in the main room while I slept on the bed.

During the flight home I watched some of the goings on at E3. So far, not buying an Xbox One. Just forget it, it’s over for them. EA made a comeback, proud of them. And I really don’t care about Ubisoft enough. Didn’t matter, by the time theirs came on we were home. I couldn’t wait to see what Isdela and crew had done.

“Your home,” Isdela chimed. She ran over to me and grabbed my hand. “Come on come see. No worries, Loz’s knows nothing. The boys camped out in the living room all weekend and the dinning room is fixed.” She dragged me up the stairs. Sephy followed behind scratching at his arms.

“Knock that off,” I demanded. “It’ll spread.”

“It’s already spread,” he protested.

“Kadaj’s room first,” Izzy said stopping in front of the boys old room. “It’s all Game of Thrones.”

I look around. The walls are painted to look like bricks from on old castle. The bunk beds have been fixed up to match the time period of the show. The bottom is Khal Drogo’s while the top has House Lannister sheets. Built into the walls above each bed are small TVs. On the top bunk sits a lion pluchie. On the wall opposite is he’s own Iron Throne with bookcases on either side. Sitting in the middle of the chair is a crown. The walls are covered with the house banners and under the window are five chests with a lock pick set setting on the middle one.

“Okay the chest are Skyrim, but I thought it was fitting,” Isdela said.

“Any weapons,” I asked. She pointed to the wall behind us.

“Bow and Arrow.”

I sighed; I didn’t even want to think what Loz’s weapon would be.

“Okay now Loz’s room,” Izzy took my arm again and led me down the hall to the old guest room. It now looked like the bridge of the USS Enterprise. One wall was made up to look like he was looking out into space complete with stars. The console stuck out from the wall a bit and had a built in keyboard.

“Check this out.” She pressed a button on the keyboard and part of the wall changed into a computer screen.

“Giant TV in the wall doubles as computer.” Clever Izzy, but that wasn’t all. Next to the keyboard was a round display case with seven spaces in it.

“What’s with this,” I asked.

“Oh, hidden within the room are the seven dragon balls. Loz finds ‘em, puts them in this baby and the dragon shows up on the screen.”

“Nice,” I remarked.

“So the bed is a heated water bed that looks like a cryopod,” Izzy informed me. The sheets were blue and white. Simple, but it works for Loz. On the far side of the room was a fighting ring with a punching bag in one corner. On the wall by the door were two bookcases lined with books on fighting, war, and destruction.

“Very nice Izzy,” I said taking another look around the room. Yep, just as I thought. Hanging above the bed was a Klingon Blade.

“The weapons were Aranel’s idea,” Izzy whispered.

“Of course they were,” I moaned.

“Okay, now for the best part,” Isdela grabbed my arm one last time and dragged me across the hall to my old office. I held my breath as she opened the door. The walls where painted to match the sky, water and sand. The carpet was spilt. The half near the door looked like water, the other half looked like the sands of a beach. The crib was held up by two Paupu Trees to give off a hammock effect. The changing station was by the wall on the right. Next to the crib was a bookcase; both it and the changing station were painted black. On top of the bookcase was a small CD player. By the window on the left was a rocking chair. And on in the middle of the floor was a medium sized rug that looked like a sea turtle.

“Destiny Island,” I sighed looking around.

“And no weapons,” Isdela added. I smiled, wiping away the tears from my eyes. It’s perfect.

“I could have done this,” Sephiroth grumped.

“You and your poison ivy get out of here,” I demanded.

“For real,” Isdela said backing into the room away from Sephy. He grumbled some more and then turned away heading down the hall. We stood there until we heard his footfall on the stairs.

“Oh and check this out,” Isdela went over to the light switch and turned the lights off. When she did the little Paupu Fruits in the trees lit up. Not too bright, but it would be the perfect nightlight.

“And Vinny said that could be fixed when she gets a little older and doesn’t need a nightlight any more. He’s amazing… my Vinny.”

“You really did think of everything didn’t you?”

She smiled, “Does this mean I can be Yaz’s godmom now?”

I shock my head, “Yeah sure.”

Isdela yelled at the top of her lungs and started jumping around like a crazy woman. Now I was going to have to choose godparents for the kids. Oh well, I could always make Cloud and Zack Loz’s godparents. At least then I would know he would be getting distinct fight training. Don’t know about Kadaj, but I could always make Lizzy Kairi’s godmom. In my dreams Kairi seemed to be the artsy one.

“Thanks for everything,” I said.

“Any time,” Izzy said. “No really when can I start on the kitchen?”

I shook my head, “How about dinner first, the little one and me are starving.”

Isdela rushed out of the room. I gave the new nursery another look over. I was beyond happy that Izzy had taken over this project. She really did do an amazing job on all three rooms.

“Hey mom,” I heard. I rushed back over and closed the door to Loz’s new room. He stared down the hall at me. “Can I sleep in there tonight?”

“No Loz,” I said walking over to him. “You’ll take the bottom buck in Kadaj’s room till your birthday. Then you can have your room.” I kissed him on the head and led him back downstairs. He was going to love it. Speaking of…

“AHHHHHHHHHHH! Aunt Isdela I love my room it’s so amazing I love you so much,” Kadaj rambled hugging onto Isdela’s leg.

“Glad you like it,” she smiled.

“Like it? I love it!” He let go and rushed back upstairs. We’re never getting him out of there now. I can’t decide if that’s a good thing or a bad thing. I guess time will tell.

                                                                                                                                                                    

A/N: Once again I owe all the work to Isdela. She came up with the ideas for all three rooms. I didn’t help much with them other to tell her how amazing she is. I wish we could pull of our plans for mine and my sister’s rooms. Well back to E3! Oh the lag…
