A Home for Boblynn

by Morgan West

“Welcomes to our news home, Celia,” Boblynn the Goblin says to her beautiful little spotted potted mushroom. “There is the shades and the moistures for doin’ the spore babies. It has the sturdy roofs keepin’ our nogginses dry and, mosts importance of alls—potentials!” She holds her mushroom up as she gleefully spins around.

“You knows I always wanted to becomin’ the designers. Velvety fabrics, fancy furniture, softs rugs. The warms of ‘Golden Sunbeams’ or the deeps of ‘Charcoal Nightshade’ splashed across the accents walls. The smells of the wallpapers paste and the tinkle of the tiny screws falling all over the floors.” She hugs her potted mushroom tight. “And nows the minin’ is alls ours!”

“Don’t be the means, it’s time to do the cleans!” Boblynn hums, while clearing out the mine.

“You are welcomes in our homes, Beryl and little bumbles friends. Whens these flowers do the bloomin’, you’ll loves it. I sorry abouts the wasp sprays. I wasn’t sure if you was friends or foes. I won’t do the touch of your nest, if you agrees to stays out of my way, and steer clears of Celia. Her pot is off the limits!”

“I wants the living area to be the inviting, but peacefuls. It needs to evoke the warms, but not be the scaries. It needs to be the cheerfuls, but not the brights. I don’t thinks the lightings will do ‘Golden Sunbeam’ the justice. Withouts the naturals light, it not the sames.”

“The new plans; I needs to plays off the naturals color of the stones, and bring in the highlights. I thinks ‘Coolers Gray’ with ‘Siam Sunsets’ as accent on that walls will really brings out the naturals beauty of the floor rocks.” Boblynn paces the room.

“Maybes.”

“Definitely. Or not. Shits, I goings back to the stores.”

“The what do you thinks, Celia? I glads I wents with ‘Not-Cools Gray’. It really does the warms in the space. Now to gets the accents wall painted. Maybes I should do the subtle archin’ design. Really smash the Bohos-Chic style.”

“This is the perfect. The ‘Fish Lady Tail’ archin’ adds the dimensions, which Better Gnomes and Gardens said is the keys to defining the living spaces. Now to finds the curtains in the right shade of the teals. Oh! The mails is here.”

“Whats I doin’ now? That lawyers from the minin’ never did the mentions of the zonin’ issues. This my dreams home. Maybe I do the sleepin’ on it and gets the solution tomorrows.”

“I gots the ideas! Anyone can sends a meanie old letters but it’s the much harder to do the denyin’ in the faces. I go seein’ the town councils.”

“Well shits. Okay, Universes. I needs you to do the signs!”

“My, Celia! I founds the place for the stayin’. The lovely womans named Twilla said we can do the sleepin’ thing at her studios. Well, she didn’t says it. She is the deafs. But she did the writin’ and we figures it out. She does the potterys! Guess you don’t need the hearin’ for that. She even writes you comes too!”

“Ahh. The sweet, sweets onlines order dopamines. I knows, Celia! I no moves into the minin’ rights now, but I needs to be the prepareds for when I cans. I will figures the somethin’ out. Mayhaps Twilla will have the somes ideas. Now for the teas.”

“Not the propers impacts? Gardens are the beautifuls and they provides the foods for everyone! What elses could he wants? Don’t listens to him, Celia. The gardens of your family has the impacts. You have the impacts on me, my love.”

“The hardwares S? I no see the Hardwares S. Sons of a b...”

“Theres we are. Nows, we have the somewheres to do the displayin’ of the arts.”

“All the dones, my Celia. Now we is the readys.”

“Here we’s goin’, Cels. Todays is the biggin’ days. I hopin’ the peoples of the Fallhaven will comes out. This for thems too. I haves so much the nervous. Twilla did the tellin’ that we’s the talks around the towns. I do the straightin’ of the stools and checkin’ the mushroom gardens casserole one lasts time. Twilla on her ways with her luck of pots too.” Boblynn hurries toward the kitchen excitedly.
