*Dantin shrugged again and smiled.* "Well, no, especially if it's empty... we have a backyard? Heck, I didn't know that." *Since when did they get a backyard? Not that he minded, of course.*

"It's not that large, it can't be half as big as the first floor... But it's there. You guys want to go see it?" Archon headed over to the door, which they had left open. "Or you could stay here and enjoy the room. I don't care."

*Dantin looked over at Kade, who in turn shrugged his shoulders and started following Archon towards the door.* "Lets go check out the backyard. I'll have plenty of time to look my room over when I start putting my stuff in it."
*Dantin just nodded and followed Kade.*

"Let's go, then... The door is through the dining room, did either of you notice it?" Archon quickly threaded through the hallways and down the stairs, stopping to let the other two mice catch up as he turned to look back up at them. "Hey, you guys..."

*Kade was pretty much keeping up with Archon right behind him and almost ran into him when he stopped.* "What?" *He was wondering why Archon had said that.*
*For Dantin, it took a little bit longer to catch up seeing as how he was behind Kade and a littler further back. He looked at Archon questioningly, also wondering what was up.*

"Well, I'm just waiting for you guys to catch up so we don't get separated. Yes," Archon continued with a smile, "this house is big enough for people to get separated in." The first floor made the sounds of the village road outside a bit more audible, but it was a quiet day and the house was reasonably soundproofed. This made the room dead silent.

*Kade grinned.* "Yeah, I can see that, quiet too." *Now both him and Dantin were just waiting for Archon to continue because neither of them knew where the back yard was.*

"Well... Follow me, guys." Archon beckoned for the pair to follow, then himself headed off to the dining room. The door to the backyard was visible from here– It only had the cylinder lock keeping it shut, unlike the front door, which wasn't protected by an iron-backed wooden fence around it.

"Right" *Kade started following Archon again and Dantin started following Kade again. As they entered the dining room, Kade looked around, still surprised at the size of everything.* "I guess everything in this house is awesome, huh?"

"Yeah... Table holds nine, you think you can satisfy that now?..." Archon walked around the table that occupied most of the room and unlocked the back door, opening it to reveal a well-kept grass lawn and a maple pole that looked about two years old. "That dirt around the tree, no grass... Bought the maple sapling... Pole... Thing, and put that in just three days ago."

*Dantin looked around the backyard, not too big, not too small.* "Not to bad back here, except for the lack of... stuff. Once that maple thing gets bigger it'll be pretty nice."
*Kade pretty much thought the same thing.* "Is there gonna be more stuff put out back here?" *He was mainly wondering about... just making it not look so bare.*

"Well, I don't really want to clutter it. It's not like we can fit an entire gazebo in here so I thought the maple tree would be nice... You think it could use, maybe, uh... A flower bed, sort of thing? Around the perimeter? And maybe some shrubs on the corners." It might make it look a bit less bare, at least. The backyard was completely barren save the grass and the maple pole at the moment.

*Kade nodded.* "Yeah, that would probably work. Just something so it doesn't look so bare. The tree... pole... whatever, helps some too."
*Dantin had an idea.* "What about some kind of table and chairs or something, like if we wanted to eat lunch outside during the summer or something, you know?" *-That would be pretty nice, actually...-*

"You know, that's a good idea. Use the first-floor storage room to hold it... One of those collapsible tables and sets of chairs... Two, perhaps, if we keep getting so many residents, actually." Archon looked around the yard again. There wasn't really room for a shed, at least, one large enough to hold anything they'd need, since it would be by far too substantial a dent in the yard configuration.

*Dantin looked at Archon with a raised eyebrow and a grin.* "What, are you expecting more beasts to be showing up?" *He didn't think there was anyother beasts that would count as able to, or wanting too, live there.*
