Considering how bright it was outside, there would be a good amount of light inside the igloo, since there were a few 'windows' placed near the bottom of the igloo, as well as the slim cracks between the ice. There was also the fact that the roof was still somewhat open as Mas made the last few blocks he needed.
"Hmm...... well my bed's not that big...... he can't have gone far," was all Than said. After he took a moment to be quiet, it didn't take long for him to hear some small tail flicks hitting his bedspread, which was Eecheb's tail. He chuckled. "I rest my case." It didn't sound like Eecheb was awake yet, so Than just started stretching.

Hmm, blankets and mats won't do... Well I could use a mat or two on the table I suppose.
*Nana was speaking to herself as she summed up the inner area of the igloo and the table. The mats could at least provide a slight cushion between the ice table and the table sheet Nana would need. The plates that would be used, would also have something to cushion them that way. But what about the seats? Mastema could make some, or else some folding chairs could be used. If Mastema did make chairs, something would need to be placed over them too, and seat cushions added for softness. Since the igloo wasn't yet sealed up, Nana would attempt to contact Zio*
>.>
Zio?
*Eecheb's wings would flex a little, the talking in the room was disturbing his beauty sleep. Along with his wings, the boy's limbs would draw in a little closer to him. All of the children had a slight case of bed head to deal with, otherwise they would be ready to face the day as soon as they could find their shoes*

"Zio has trouble communicating in this area, dear," Mastema would respond from outside, having to raise his voice a bit for Nana to hear him outside. "What do you need?" Nana would have to talk to Mastema instead, who was in constant contact with Zio via his telepathy. It seemed in recent months that Zio's holographic capabilities had been more difficult to maintain recently.

<.<
Oh...?!
*Nana would place what she had brought, onto the table and then moved back outside and wandered back to Mastema's side. Nana didn't tend to use Zio much at all outside of the tower, so it was less noticed by her than perhaps to others who constantly used Zio while away from the tower*
<.<
Well, we'll need a table cloth to fit the table you've made, plates, napkins, cutlery, seating. I got Zio to prepare a cake earlier, which will need to be brought here after the table is set. So there are a few things yet to do.
*If Thanatos moved around too much his sheets would become slack, and Eecheb would slide off the bed to the floor. It was uncertain if he would wake up however, after the fall. With a head that thick he might just continue to sleep. By this time Trilla had moved to the floor and was looking for her other shoe which was on the other side of the bed, Micha was on*
Trilla: >.>

A small grunt would be heard from Mastema after each item, as he recited it without opening his mouth. After she finished, he nodded. "I'll get someone to bring the cake. Zio will start transporting the items one by one to the table inside now." Sure enough, when Nana got back, she would find the items she wanted starting to appear.
Fortunately, Than's later movement would be in Eecheb's favor. Leaning back, he rolled back a bit before turning to stand off the bed by his sister. The pressure down on the middle of the bed might cause Eecheb to roll toward the center of the bed, away from the edge. A few more stretches and Than would be ready to do whatever.

All right. I'll head back in a moment.
*Mastema never used to grunt like that when in contact with Zio before. Perhaps he was trying a new interface she didn't know about? What ever the case, it worried Nana slightly and Mastema could probably see it in her face. Hopefully it really was nothing to be worried about, what ever it was*
Trilla: 4laugh There...!
*Trilla would find her shoe after a brief search, she had kicked it off in her sleep. Now over by Micha, Trilla would try to get her twin to get up to play. Eecheb moved slightly, perhaps an inch and a half more onto the bed. Again the chattering of Trilla made him move about slightly, as it bothered him. He wanted to sleep but constant noise said otherwise*

Than chuckled lightly at his sister, but also knew Eecheb was still asleep and probably wanted to stay that way, so he said quietly, "Trilla, Eecheb's still trying to sleep. Don't talk so loud." He smiled and started to get his own boots on.
Really the only thing that might need worrying about was the change in Mastema's character. Perhaps his change in demeanor was appreciated by some people more than others, but it was still unlike his old self. Still, if anything bugged him, he likely wouldn't consult someone else to try and assist him. He usually solved his own problems.

Yuri would blink as no response came to his communication. He was surprised, honestly. Though it was true he had been seperated from Tyrsais for a period of months, he still recalled their mental link, and knew there had never been trouble contacting his master before. He wondered vaguely if perhaps his master was too busy to respond, in which case he should be a bit more cautious and perhaps respectful with his tone.
Ah, Tyrsais, if you're busy I apologize for interrupting you. I'm just checking to make sure you got my former message and assure your own health. I can sense your presence, so I want to be sure you are all right... The second message would come, courteous but much more intense than the previous one. If his master was indeed in trouble, he would waste no time in catching up with the other and providing assistance.
As he waited for a response, Yuri found himself wondering at the condition of the boy he had met the other day, and wondered if he should check up on him to ensure his safety. The boy seemed a tad bit reckless, something to be watched in the near future...

Trilla: >.> | Hnn~ Ok...
*Even without talk, the sound of life, motion was still something that could wake the boy at any time. Eecheb's wings would flex again, and his tail would slap the bed a little louder, and with more vigar. One way or another Eecheb's blissful rest was going to come to a quick end*
>_>
Well it looks like its almost done. I'll set up then. See you in a few minutes.
*With that Nana would snug Mastema quickly and head back to the interior of the igloo to start setting things up. It would take a few minutes, and hopefully by then Mastema would be finished with his 'masterpiece' igloo. Then he and Nana would have a little while to do what ever else was needed or to rest before collecting up the children and guests for the party. It had been a while since they had been together in the Peace, perhaps a brief walk would do*

Mastema was a tad puzzled by Nana's obvious concern, but he returned her embrace naturally and let her go. It was doubtful he would decline Nana's wish to spend some time with him before the gathering. It was the children's birthday, as well as a special day in itself. There were more than enough things to talk about.
Putting his boots on, Than could hear Eecheb banging his tail on the bed. The boy wanted sleep, but was still restless. It seemed the only way the child would get sleep was to return to his own room.

*After about ten minutes of setting things up inside the dome of snow, Nana would re-appear again. She'd huff lightly, a job well done. She liked to be useful, its all she really wanted. Slowly wandering back towards Mastema, Nana would look over the walls of the igloo and look at all the bumps, clumps, and shapes made to keep it together. Upon reaching Mastema again, Nana would snug the man around the middle again. His embrace was always warm, and comforting*
~___~
*It didn't matter too much if the boy slept an extra hour or not. He'd be in the same place in the end, as his other siblings. An igloo, something they'd never seen before, let alone the scale of which they would see one soon enough. Now on his feet, Micha would be led around the room by Trilla*
Micha: . . .
Trilla: whee
Eecheb: ~_~;

Trilla: whee Eecheb: ~_~; As Trilla led her brother about the room, when they got close enough to him, Than would squat down and wrap his arm around both of them and embrace them lightly. He smiled, not wanting to take any fun out of it, even if Eecheb was still sleeping. "So.... today's the big day huh?" Mastema blinked as Nana latched herself to him, noting she was appreciably more comfortable now than a few minutes ago. Mastema wrapped one arm around her, while the other moved to help him concentrate on the remaining half dozen or so blocks. "If I didn't know better, I would think you were tired, but I think your expression is more one of satisfation."

Trilla: o.o | Huh?
*It seemed the children were not keeping track of the days. One day was generally the same as the next, so special occassions such as their birthdays hadn't factored in. They'd need a visual reminder like a calendar to help them remember when special days and events were. Since they seemed to be few and far between it was easy to tell just why they may not have known. Today.... they all turned two*
~___~
Hnn~ I agree... I'm satisfied right now. Things are falling into place, and all appears to be well, about our home. Our children are happy, healthy and continuing to grow and flourish, expanding their horizons. I couldn't be happier for them right now. Hnn~ ...and I can't wait to see their beaming little faces. heart
*So.... more or less... Nana was feeling pretty good right about now. Save for being a bit worried for Mas earlier on, she was in a good emotional and mental place. Her health was also more or less recovered as well; Nana had it good*

Than chuckled and gave his sister a little squeeze-hug. It would be best to just lead her to the answer. "Well, let's see. Today's the 14th of February... so, that means 2 years ago, 1 year ago you turned 1, and so that means this year you must be--" Than rested his finger on Trilla's head, letting the gears in her head turn to figure out the answer.
Mastema nodded, and soon enough moved his other arm behind Nana as well; it wasn't necessary for him to finish this oversized igloo. "I suppose you do have a lot to be satisfied about. So that would be...... 2 years now, apparently. Although it is a few months more than that for just the two of us." One of his hands came up to brush along the rim of Nana's hairline while they spoke.

Trilla: o.o |!!| Trilla's two today!!?
Micha: . . .
Eecheb: =.= | ?
*Trilla's excitable outburst was enough to wake Eecheb. He was staring out at a wall across from the bed, and had no idea what all the hype was about just yet. Surely he'd get into the swing of things as well soon enough. Trilla's wings would flap slightly in her excitement, and her feathers would flex. It was good to be alive, and today they all turned two. Given the volitile nature of the area at times, it was a pleasant achievement*
--___--
Mmhmm, a little longer than that. Hnn~ ...and still so much left to see and explore. heart
*Nana would likely remain where she was for now unless something diverted her attention away. Still satisfied to simply, be... it would take more than the average mishap to ruin this day, but things seemed pretty tight and well under wraps. In a short time, Nana would contact Thanatos, then gather up the children and bring them to the igloo. The snow wasn't letting up just yet, but that seemed to be ok today, somehow...*
