Link local addresses are not designed for this use - suggest you use static addressing (you have very few hosts), or put a DHCPv6 server or route advertiser into your little network and use DNS with global unicast addresses. The route advertiser would be simplest. As long as your network is truly isolated you can use whatever prefix you like, or if you wantto play safe go to sixxs and get a ULA prefix.
