“Yes, you get points for that” Isi answered. He’d started to grow on her now, he was the kind of person who never backed down from a challenge. She liked that. “So is this it? This machine looks like a torture chamber. Are you sure you’re qualified to do this?”

Lou got up from his chair, smiling: “We’re desensitised! We lived together for too long, calling each other names across the house for everything and anything. Rule was: if you’re not in the room, it’s not important.”

“How are you doing?” She whispered above her head as Isi’s fingers played the last notes. “Have all the boxes Seki sent arrived now?”
“They have, you’ll have to remind me to get him something in thanks.”

She couldn’t help looking up at her, imagining a life full of mornings like those, with hair still slightly wet, sun coming through the windows, music playing…

“Does it work fine?” She asked, tone eager. “I had it checked but I wasn’t sure if the dude was good or not…”
Isi didn’t answer, just started playing the first song she’d made for Rory and smiled when she gasped.

The house was slowly changing, becoming inhabitable. They now had a bed, were moving their things into the space.
One morning, Isi found a piano in the room that had been transformed into a conservatory. It drew her in immediately.

Rory chuckled: “Well that came out of nowhere?”
“Ade and Jake are going, they need a ride.” Isi explained. “And I want to spend the day with you.”
“Anything you want, dove.”

“I love this song” Rory finally said as the radio station transitioned out of a BB King song and into one she’d never heard before. “Dance with me?”
Laughing but unable to refuse, Isi let herself be twirled around.

“Maybe… I guess we’ll see.”
It was both harsh and understandable. Lux wasn’t here anymore. It simply left the both of them to know what exactly had happened down in those tunnels. The bond was there, whether they liked it or not.

“Celene said she didn’t want to see me. And wouldn’t let me meet the kid either.”
Something inside Isi twisted. That was a low blow.

“Feel like you own yourself again?”
“Yeah!” The teen smiled, running her right hand through her now green hair. “Thank you! And for the talk too. I needed to talk to someone who didn’t raise Jake and I.”
