Moya looked up and smiled, nodding as she turned her attention back to the tv. "These little creatures are really cute, but I didn't know that they lived like this. Casting family members out just because they have babies." She pulled her knees up onto the couch and looked back up at Nik. "I went into the basement and saw that you still have toys from when you were little. Do you think we can go through them later and see which ones are still good enough to be played with?"

He smiled at that and flopped down next to her, lounging back against the arm of the couch. "Sure. Once I shower I'll go down and bring them up. They could use some real daylight after all these years." Sitting up again he kissed her gently, messing her hair up and going back into the kitchen, drinking down a cup of milk before taking the stairs to at a time to shower.

She giggled softly and thought about a shower for herself. Then she thought of all the dust and decided that once they were done with looking at the toys she would take a shower. She stood up from the couch and went into the kitchen, finding orange juice. She drank a cup of that before heading downstairs again to see how many toy boxes were really there.

Thirty minutes later he came back downstairs whistling, his hair still dripping when he moved. "Alright, off we go." Going down to the basement he started singing. "Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to work we go..." Switching to whistling he smiled at Moya, grabbing one of the boxes and hauling it up.

She laughed and grabbed a light box, knowing he would complain if it was heavy to her. She carried it up and set it next to the box Nik brought up. She decided to stay up in the living room and to go through the boxes. She got on her knees and opened one of the boxes, having that one filled with toys that made noise, some of them were broken so she put them to the side.

Grabbing the last two boxes he brought them up, closing the basement door behind him and setting them down, opening another. This one was figurines and building blocks, letter blocks, making him smile even more. He remembered these, his father had made them. And even after all these years they were in perfect condition as he set them out one by one.

She smiled and watched him for a few minutes. This made him happy and she liked seeing him happy. After a little bit she opened another box. This box didn't have much in it, it had a few rattles and small children books. "Where will we put the toys we want the baby to use? Right now they can't stay in the living room, we'd trip over them."

He was about to answer when one of the books caught his eye. Lifting it up he held it carefully. Unbelievable. He'd been alive for over four hundred years, and the book had been made long before that. He couldn't believe it was still in perfect condition, no fading, no yellow pages. No brittleness. Swallowing back the lump in his throat he opened it, leafing through it until he got to the back, seeing his mother's name. "There's more rooms in this house. I'll set up a nursery once we know what we want to keep."

Moya saw how emotional Nik was when he saw the book. She moved over and looked over his shoulder, looking at the name. "We will keep this one in our room." She kissed his cheek and rested her head on his shoulder and smiled softly.

Nik nodded and looked at it a moment more before setting the book down, looking through the rest of the box. Stroking her head lightly he moved away from her, standing up and stretching. "Anything you like?"

Moya stayed on the floor and looked through the stuff once again before looking up at Nik. "I like the blocks and rattles, and some toys that are soft." She looked in a box and found a stuffy. She pulled it out and it was a white wolf, about the size of a pillow. She smiled softly and stood up with it in her hands. "You can pick some things for the baby too."

Nik blushed at the stuffy, remembering when he had said he wanted to look exactly like that when he was old enough to turn into a wolf. Now it just looked ridiculous to him. "We can always bring these back up closer to the arrival."

"Yeah we can. I just wanted to see what you grew up with really." She put the wolf on the couch and looked at the toys scattered about. "Lets put what we want in some boxes, and what we don't want in different boxes." She got back down on her knees and stacked the blocks in a box neatly, having enough room for the books as well.

He smiled as he watched her, taking the dud box down to the basement when it was full and locking the door behind him, flopping on the couch with a sigh. Some of those boxes had held a lot of memories, plenty of them involving him getting grabbed by the scruff. So many infact that he smiled.

Moya had grabbed the stuffy and the book that had his mother's name in the back and took them upstairs. She put the book on a shelf up there and put the wolf on the bed for now. When Nik came out of the basement she was walking down the stairs. She sat down next to him and pulled her knees up, looking at him. "Thank you for letting me look at all your old toys."
