"That's fine." he chirped "Cya soon buddy" he said happily before he hung up the phone. Max gave a nod "Perfect." she said happily, she wasn't worried about what to wear or anything but she did have Charlie pick out an outfit to change into and did up her hair in some quite adorable braids were they super long? no... but they looked adorable on Charlie. Max braided her own hair as well after running a brush through before she went back out to Sage leaning over the back of the couch a little and kissing his cheek "I admit i'm gonna miss your long hair... but it'll be good to have a trim." she smiled.

Sage hung up the phone happily and then nodded when Max said that was perfect. He sort of just sat there while Max did Charlie's hair and got her dressed...two of them helping with that would be a lot. Besides, he was pretty awful at braiding Charlie's hair...Max was much better at it. He tilted his head back when he felt her kiss his cheek, so he could see her, and grinned up at her. "I have no idea what I'm gonna do with it," he admitted. "I have a couple ideas but honestly don't care as long as it's not uncomfortable," he admitted with a chuckle. "I used to just cut it with my dagger, but I think you'd rather me not look like some kind of mad scientist because I cut my hair with a knife," he joked lightly. In all honesty, he'd probably leave it long but keep it a comfortable length...or maybe not. Like he'd said, he wasn't really sure what he wanted. But keeping it long did seem to be a good idea, especially if Max liked it.

Maxine laughed "Well the good thing about hair is that if you don't like how its styled you can style it or you can wait for it to grow out and do a whole different hairstyle." she pointed out with a smile before laughing "I kinda figure you'd never gotten a professional haircut before..." she teased playfully ruflling his hair "Look for different ideas... if there's something you like I say go for it its your hair." she shrugged giving a smile. Max spent the next hour cleaning up some... she'd been in really decent cleaning mode lately... she'd purged a lot of just filthy clothes and things from their closets... cleaned up all the rooms pretty good for the most part... part of it was distracting herself when Sage was gone but now it was definitely nesting... she knew that for sure. When they were ready they headed over to Hailey and Travis's place Hailey and Travis greeting their friends warmly "Oh look at you!" Hailey chirped "You look gorgeous!" she squeaked happily "Oh please..." Max pouted "No no you do!" Travis assured her with a smile.

Sage chuckled and nodded. "Yeah, i know," he mused. Then he snorted out a sort of amused laugh at her tease before shrugging. "I'll figure it out," he mused happily. He could change the length of his hair with his powers....just not so much the style. If he wanted the style changed, he'd have to style it himself unless it was something simple like where his part was or whatever. It always seemed like a waste of energy though, so he'd just used his dagger. He offered to help clean, though Max wanted things done a particular way, so he focused on getting them some lunch before they headed out. He greeted his friend and his wife with a wave and then chuckled lightly when she protested their compliments. "You always look gorgeous," he told her with an eye roll. "now go find whatever you were needing. Well be back soon, I'd imagine," he mused, waving the girls off before grinning over at Travis. "Let's get in and out before the kids wreck your house," he joked lightly.

Max blushed heavily giving a small laugh before she headed inside with Hailey the kiddos running off to go play. "Agreed." Travis chuckled "Cya soon Babe!" Travis called "Cya! love you!" Hailey called Max calling a goodbye to Sage as well before Travis shut the door "Nice to have you back." Travis said bumping him playfully.

Sage couldn't help but snicker when he noticed Max blush, but waved at the girl's as they went inside. He chuckled lightly at Travis's comment and nodded happily. 'its good to be back," he admitted. "I don't like leaving Max that long, especially when she's pregnant, but that's where our insurance comes from so we put up with it," he informed his friend as they walked down to the car. It was a short ride down to the barber's shop, and once they got there and walked in, sage grinned over at Travis. "You gonna get one too? Act like women for the day and do everything together," he joked/teased lightly, bumping his friend lightly.

"I know what you mean..." he admitted "I hated leaving Hailey... I mean for you its way worse cause of everything that happened last time obviously but hey you're back now." he smiled "You don't plan on missing out on too much more if any." he chuckled playfully. "Just be prepped because she's likely going to drive you nuts..." he admitted "Then again you've probably got experience with that." he chuckled "You were there for the last bit when she was carrying Charlie." he pointed out of course not knowing the circumstances. When they arrived he laughed at him "Wanna get mani petties too?" he joked before he gave a nod "I am gonna get a trim myself today too." he nodded happily. "Hey Joe!" he chirped waving an older gentlemen over "Hey Travis, hows the wife and kiddos?" he asked "They're great..." he chirped happily "This is my friend Sage... We're both here for a trim if you can squeeze us in?" he asked "Sure thing." he smiled "get the two chairs at the back and i'll be with you soon..." he said as he went back to the customer he'd been working on before.

Sage hummed lightly and nodded in agreement. "Well, hopefully I'll be here for a while," he he mused. Then he gave Travis a grin and nodded. "she's already been doing more than I can keep up with...I think she's cleaned every inch of the house ten times over in the amount of time I've been back," he joked lightly. Travis knew of the things that happened, so he could joke around...he knew he was exaggerating, though he wasn't too far off either, which was amusing. He gave his friend a grin at his joke and nodded. "Oh absolutely, it's been on my bucket list to give someone a heart attack my showing them my hands," he snorted in amusement, still joking around. He shook hands with the barber when he introduced them, and then he and Travis settled down to wait. It wasn't long before they were both in a chair with someone cutting away at them. Sage had decided to keep the top long...really long, actually....almost down to his waist. But he trimmed the underside super short, with a sort of skull and dragon design trimmed into the almost buzzed part of it. That part was just because it looked cool. But this way it was off his neck enough, and still long the way Max liked it. It was longer than she'd realize, but that was fine. Once he was done, he fashioned a stick to hold his hair up in a sort of man bun...but of course, the stick looked like a really cool dagger, because, well, it was cool. It was warm out, so he'd keep it up for now.

Travis went with a simple cut... the top was kept pretty long with some hair hanging in his face while the sides and back were pretty well buzzed, it was different from his typical shaggy hairstyle but like Sage he factored the summer into it as well so he decided to go with something fairly short. Travis chuckled at Sage "Did you even get your hair cut?" he teased as the loose hair was dusted off him. "Travis..." Joe chuckled "He can get his hair cut to whatever length he wants just like you can." he said simply with a shrug as he brushed off the loose hair from Sage and removed the little "hair cloak" (as he called it) from his shoulders.

Sage glanced over at Travis and gave him a lopsided grin as he put the long hair up. He snickered when joe chuckled at Travis and once he'd stopped speaking sage just grinned again and gave Travis a mischievous look. "oh, he's just jealous I'm prettier than he is," he snickered lightly, teasing Travis and making a joke to Joe all in the same sentence. He patted him on the shoulder lightly and nodded towards the door. "ready," he asked lightly, and when Travis nodded they waved bye to Joe and paid and thanked him before heading back to the house. Max and Hailey were talking in the yard watching the kids, and he couldn't help but sneak up to Max, wrap his arms around her, and blow a raspberry on her neck with a giggle.
