"A lot.  She had another room like this, but it’s smaller and all full of fabrics and stuff.  Not nearly as magical," He grinned as he watched Diana look around.  Moving to a wall of shelves and drawers, he ran his finger along it before letting it stop on one drawer, pulling it open and holding up the box of clothes pins inside of it.  "Aha!" He declared triumphantly.

[plsdiana]

Diana grinned when he held up the clothes pins, "Treasure!" She exclaimed happily, turning away from a bucket of various glitter glues to the door, "Time to build the best fort ever!" She was practically skipping as she ran down the stairs and back to the living room.

There was a new, buzzing excitement about her. It was funny, considering she hadn't felt any difference between her and Isaac besides the lessening of a considerable amount of tension. Diana herself felt like she was full of electricity that replaced the butterflies from before. Apparently, Isaac could make something as simple as blanket forts a new and exciting thing for her. She figured they could watch paint dry and she'd have fun.

Diana scoped out the living room, arms crossed and brow furrowed in concentration, "If we put some string up and hang stuff on either side like a tent, that would work, right?"

[plsisaac]

Isaac smiled, grabbing one of the hands she dropped away from his face.  "Follow me," he instructed, guiding her up the stairs and in the direction of the craft room.

[plsdiana]

Diana's eyes widened as they entered the craft room. It wasn't a grand room, but it definitely wasn't a closet.

"How many different kinds of glitter does your mom have? Damn," she remarked, looking decently impressed, a smile crossing her face, "This is magical."

[plsisaac]

"Don’t pout at me," He warned furrowing his eyebrows and reflecting her pout back at her, laughing immediately after he tried.  "Okay, well, I’m sure I can manage to make some popcorn for the Dianas.  Wouldn’t want her sad."

[plsdiana]

Diana giggled and nodded her approval, "Good. We've got to get the circus tents up first, though." She dropped her hands, not before kissing him quickly, "Clothes pins, yeah?"

[plsisaac]

"It is.  The fanciest of all living room circuses," Isaac nodded, letting out a chuckle. “Well, I know there’ll be popcorn for the elephants, but I don’t know about popcorn for the Diana’s."

[plsdiana]

Diana turned around, placing her hands on either side of Isaac's face and giving him the most profoundly exaggerated pout the world had ever seen. "Isaac Hastings," she said, "There has to be popcorn for the Dianas. Or the Dianas will be really sad. Really, really sad."

[plsisaac]

"The best fort in the history of people?" Isaac chucked, turning her around so she was standing in front of him, wrapping his arms around his waist and resting his chin in her shoulder.  "Just picture it.  In a short while, you’ll be standing the middle of Cirque de Hastings."

[plsdiana]

"I wanted to include everyone," Diana laughed, leaning back into Isaac's arms and smiling, "Cirque de Hastings," she repeated, "That sounds fancy. Will there be popcorn? You know, for the elephants... and the Dianas."

"Thanks," Isaac whispered with a smile, placing a kiss on her cheek.  Upon hearing Isaiah’s words, he turned his head sharply to look over at him.  "You do?"  He repeated, raising an eyebrow. 

"We’ll split up," He instructed, seeing as he was the Ring Master, and he was in charge.  "Di and I will go look for mom’s sewing kit, and you can go find the Christmas decorations and get the lights."

[plsdiana]

"Mostly lights, though, Isaiah!" Diana called back to him over her shoulder, "All the lights!" She giggled, turning back to Isaac and squeezing his hand, "Even Isaiah wants to help!" She said, overjoyed, "It's going to be the best fort in the history of man. And woman. In the history of people."

[isaiahfck-blog]

Isaiah nodded, somewhat amused by her good judgement.  Personally, he had thought they put up a convincing act.  "Oi, but I’m cuter, right?" He teased, pushing the sleeves of his sweater up his forearms and pushing the part of his hair back to its normal side.  "Hey, I want to be a part of this!" He exclaimed, surprising both himself and his brother.

[plsdiana]

"No, not in the slightest," Diana replied, taking Isaac's hand.

"You do?" Diana asked, glancing between the two brothers, "Well, okay. We're looking for clothes pins and christmas lights!" She started up the stairs, past Isaiah, "It's going to be beautiful. The best blanket fort ever. Ring Master, Trapeze Artist... And you liked Lion Tamer, Isaiah? Yeah, and the Lion Tamer."

[plsisaac]

"This is one of the many reasons I like you," He nodded, confirming her exclamation with a grin.  Stepping forward her wrapped his arm around her shoulders.  "Good job."

[plsdiana]

Diana jumped up and down in excitement, laughing, "Yes!" She exclaimed, grinning at Isaac. She looked back to Isaiah with a shrug, "Hey, you both look very dashing in your sweaters, though."

Still smiling, she glanced up at Isaac, "Blanket fort time?"

[plsisaac]

"What?" The twins both asked in sync, starting to get confused by the amount of times Isaac’s name was used in the conversation.

"You get one question to figure it out," Isaiah decided, looking over at Isaac to make sure it was a good idea.  When Isaac nodded, he made sure to look at Diana’s eyes to make her question her previous statement.  "Ask wisely," He instructed solemnly.

[plsdiana]

"It's you!" Diana said to Isaac, who she'd been addressing as Isaac 2, "It's you. You're Isaac." She was grinning, "Right? Oh god, please tell me I'm right."

[plsisaac]

"No questions," Isaiah confirmed, Isaac nodding in agreement.  Even their smiles were identical, and the boys both knew that.  But they still kept on a serious face, glancing over at each other to admire their own handiwork.  "We’ve been doing this for ages, Diana," Issac replied, not cracking a smile.  

"Alright, jokes up," Isaiah said, flashing her a grin, “I’m the real Isaac."  As he reached forward to grab for Diana’s hand, Isaac caught the hint and stepped forward as well.  "Unless I’m the real Isaac," He added, flashing her and identical grin.

[plsdiana]

"One Isaac keeps looking at the other Isaac for cues, and Isaac 1 will look me in the eye, but Isaac 2 won't," Diana looked at Isaac 1, who had stepped forward first, and who she assumed to be Isaiah, and shrugged.

"I can't guess!" She said, with a laugh, "Either I guess right out of pure luck, or I guess wrong and real Isaac will not hear the end of it for days from real Isaiah, am I right?"

"I didn’t mean I actually wanted to do this!" Isaac complained as Isaiah pulled him upstairs, knowing he shouldn’t have said anything like that around his brother.  "Yeah," He nodded, waiting for Isaiah to get done changing before they went directly to Isaac’s room, finding his sweater and pulling it on.  They both messed up their hair quickly, giving each other a once-over to make sure there’d be no dead giveaways.  "Be dead serious," He reminded Isaiah as they headed down the stairs.

[plsdiana]

Diana waited, leaning against the railing of the staircase with crossed arms and an amused smirk. The boys reappeared and her eyes widened. She laughed, shaking her head and throwing her hands up.

"Am I allowed to ask questions?!" She asked, "No, I suppose not..."

Diana looked back and forth between one and the other, finding absolutely zero clues, "You guys are too good at this."

[plsisaac]

Isaac gave her hand a small squeeze before pulling her a little closer, flashing his brother a little glare.  More than anything he was just hoping that Isaiah would behave, be polite.  "So, if Isaiah and I were to go back upstairs and put on the same outfit, would you be able to tell us apart?" He asked, teasingly.

[plsdiana]

"Well, maybe," Diana chuckled, "because of the tattoos. You push your hair to different sides, but you can't really tell when you face him because they seem as if they're to the same side, so," Diana shrugged, "Maybe. But now I'm a bit scared that you're Isaiah and he's Isaac, and then this would be really awkward."
