Micola Maximoff has posed:
Micola's favorite holiday is approaching. Because lets face it, of course Halloween is the womans favorite. The house has been decorated and there are two twelve foot skeletons gaurding the driveway up to the main house. Currently Micola has been chased inside by a thunderstorm. She'd shaken her coat out on the porch and hung it to dry once she was inside. She made a beeline to go check on the children and to see where Pietro might be. The door too the nursery is opened and she peeks her head in to see who all is in there...

Pietro Maximoff has posed:
Pietro is home, of course - seeing as she was out, he was more than happy to watch the girls. He has one on each arm, rocking in the rocking chair within the nursery. A slow, steady rock - the man humming a bit as the rain pattered against the window pane. The girls are drowsy, dozing in and out depending on the rumbling thrunder. He was in his element, it would seem - two tiny girls to be doted on.

Micola Maximoff has posed:
Mic gives a soft smile when she sees Pietro seated and rocking the girls, she was almost sad to disturb him. She opens the door and moves quietly over to them. "You look like you've got your handsful." she teases her husband gently. "They're always so peaceful. I hope this doesn't mean that their twos are going to be very terrible." she chuckles as she leans over to plant a kiss on the top of the mans head. "How are you? I can relieve you of one of them if you'd like to move about." she tells him.

Pietro Maximoff has posed:
The man looks over to her when she speaks, grinning. "I think they like the rain. The thunder, is something else." A chuckle to his wife. "I am sure one would love to be in your arms." He comments, still not tired of holding them - he could do this forever. "I am good - watching the storm in the sky. Listening to their tiny snores." Pietro looks to his daughters with a sigh. "They will be perfect, even in the terrible twos."

Micola Maximoff has posed:
Micola moves to take Sorina up from Pietro's arm to give him a rest. She doesn't sit down with her, she instead settles her against her chest an lets her head rest on her shoulder as she moves slowly, "They're going to get away with so much." she chuckles to that. "Are you hungry? I think my finishing decorations are done for the evening." she muses to that.

Pietro Maximoff has posed:
The speedster smiles when Sorina is collected and held. "Indeed. I am excited and terrifed to see what gifts they might have." A chuckle from Pietro, the man stroking along the back of the child in his arms. "I could eat, yes. They already had a bottle each, so they are just drifting off to sleep." A smile.

Micola Maximoff has posed:
Micola moves towards Sorina's crib and lowers the baby into it gently. Making sure that she is settled and covered up. "If you want we can go ahead and settle them in for sleep and then we'll head down and make dinner and see if the storm wakes them. They generally sleep through things. Which is a small blessing." she sighs softly to that. "How has work been?" she asks him.

Pietro Maximoff has posed:
Luminata is carried to her crib as well, laid down with delicate care. A soft blanket is tucked in around her. "That sounds perfect." He reaches over to turn on the monitor, just in case they are too bothered by the storm. "I think the sound of the rain is calming to them." The man admits, stepping to Micola's side. "Work has been work... always something to juggle and people to help." He admits, giving her a soft kiss. "How has the shop been?"
