The adults move about and talk. They check the water pressure, make sure lights go okay.

BORING things

Are there secret passages?

..Narnia?

She looks, seeking out a wardrobe, but alas, there are no coats or fauns within it.

Still, it could be a good place for hide and go seek

Good enough!

Felicity says "There's a lota plants in this room"

Sadly, some of the plants are not in the best shape

"Aw. nessa could fix you."

"She could" A nod from Felcity "Maybe she'd even like one as a gift? Bet your mom wouldn't mind"

Elsewhere, the Realtor is having trouble with a Gwydion wh ocan tell when she's lying, and well, Irene's mom, who works too hard to get flim flammed. There is talk of price reduction for EVERY problem this house has

"Ohhh, I bet!"

Indeed, her mom comes in "Well, girls, too soon to say if we get it, but we're putting in a bid and... oh.. these plants are a bit much"

"Well, this house could use a makeover, but not toooo much of one?"

"This one isn't boring" Felicity nods firmly "We cannot let it suffer in uncaring hands"

Irene's mom looks amused at both of them, and fond, Irene most of all, but yes, Felicity has grown on her "Maybe, just maybe, I'll ask your opinions on any make overs? Favorite colors and the like?"

"PURPLE!"

"Oh, oh, oh, could I have a purple bedroom?"

"Purple.. mmm" Her mom says pondering this "You like Purple you say?" As if this is new

"it's her favorite color in the world" Felicity explains

"Mo-om!"

Her mother laughs, then bends down to give Irene a kiss and hug "You can make your room purple. More than one shade if you like. Yes"

"Yay!"

"It's gonna be SO purple" Felicity says

"I don't doubt" Mrs. Donaldson nods "What color would you like yours, Felicity?"

Felicity ponders "Well, black and silver are my official colors but that might be a bit much for my room"

"Well, we have time to think about it" Irene's mother assures

"Didn't you say that white is also silver, with, um.. her-oldies?"

"Heraldries but yes..ooo black and white maybe" SHe ponders "More white than black but maybe in a pattern?"

"You want it mod style?" Irene's mother arches a brow then considers "Could work"

"Ohhh, with glow-in-the-dark stars!"

At that Feliciity's eyes light up with HOPE

"I think we can arrange that" Mrs. Donaldson says "Now, we're about to head out of here. So where do you guys want lunch?"

"McBurger Queen!"

"Captain Hook's!" Felicity says at the same time

Ohhh, there's a nose-wrinkle.

"What, captain hooks has the hushed puppies and Fishy Fries" Felicity says "And a hat"

Morthwyl has joined into hear this and exchanges a look with Irene's mom

A little fidget. "Okay..."

"Why don't we go to both places thorugh the drive through" Morthyl says "And make a picnick out of it? It's a nice day. Would that be okay?"

"That would be all right" Felicity says "Can I get a hat and she get a crown?"

"I think that can be arranged" Irene's mother MIGHT Have whispered something to Morthyl before he made that call "You okay with a fast food picnic, Irene?"

"I like picnics." Irene says tentatively.

"But you don't like Captain Hook's?" Felicty has to ask. She always has to know

"Umm."

"Irene finds it greasy and she isn't crazy about the smell of the place" Irene's mother says

Somewhere, chimerical beans spill

"OH" Felicity says "Well. .I can sit on the other side of the table or we make sure the breeze favors us?"

She looks embarrassed as Morthyl gives his squire an approving nod. For Irene's sake, Felicity is willing to do the honor thing though it's not the top of her seelie list
