A 6-year-old girl with light brown hair tied with a big yellow bow, round face and freckles, mischievous smile, wearing red-and-white striped pajamas and brandishing a wooden sword as a pirate captain; a 3-year-old blond boy with tousled hair and a dreamy, amazed expression in blue moon pajamas holding a small teddy, sitting beside her and looking toward a pile of cushions; a bedside lamp on the right casts warm light and a few plush toys are scattered around; the room is turned into a pirate ship and cloud castle with a beige sheet as a sail and stacked white cushions as clouds, a colorful rug with blocks and scribbled cards; they play pirates and cloud castle—she laughs as captain, he hugs his teddy against the cushion cloud—joyful atmosphere, warm colors and visible pencil textures.
