[the house itself is sparsely decorated, but it's welcoming, the entrance one long corridor painted a pale yellow. The first room immediately to the right has two comfy white couches in an L pointed at a slightly stolen television. The walls, though, are sky blue and covered with painted murals of different movies - mostly action flicks from the 80s like Star Wars and Ghostbusters, with a dragon breathing fire just over the windows behind the TV.]
