Mari nodded to him before chuckling, her hand running to his cheek as she pecked his lips once again. "We still need to get you some friends, you know," she mused lightly. "You need more people than just me," she added to him lightly, a snicker escaping her. "Then maybe you can go out and have fun again," she told him softly. She did think it'd be good for him... she did love having him about, but to be fair, he needed to do more than just her and Silas. He'd get himself bored. She furrowed her brows at him before snorting a laugh at him. "Well, I might never find out, because I refuse to beat you up," she mused, rolling her eyes. "Though, if you do ever drive me to the point where I have to hit you, then I might not be opposed to some make-up sex if you don't have a bloody nose," she then told him with a bit of a laugh. She then wrinkled his nose at his comment. "Undrunk," she repeated with a chuckle before shaking her head.

Sage grinned up at the girl in response to her kiss and then hummed lightly in thought. "I'll find someone eventually," he hummed. In all truth, he was more than happy to have her and Silas, and the doctor and Anya, and of course little Att and Maris family...her mom and Xander, and sort of even Anthony now, too. He was a bit weary of trying to make a new friend....and while he wasn't all completely opposed to making one, he wasn't going to go searching for someone either. He had to find someone he could trust. And who would put up with him doubting sometimes. Though, he chuckled lightly at her other comments, shrugging slightly. "Well, I'll just have to make sure I don't get a bloody nose then," he giggled. "Though, I must say I prefer it when you want that just because you think I'm hot to make up intimacy," he noted with amusement. Then he chuckled at her comment about his word. "What? Is that not what it is," he asked, eyes glittering.

Mari hummed thoughtfully to him before chuckling. "Soon," she told him lightly. "If we're going to have two whole children soon, then I'd like to think you'd have some sort of escape, Sage," she then added lightly. She had the maids around the castle she got along with... a few guards she liked, too. She hummed stiffly to him after a moment or two, wrapping her legs tighter around his waist and gently letting go of his neck before resting back a little bit so that she was leaning back in the water. She was comfortable... it was nice. She soon sat up once again, though. "I always think you're hot, though," she complained. She then pecked his nose "Like right now. You look absolutely gorgeous," she told him with a giggle. She then rolled her eyes. "Well, most people would just say sober rather than undrunk," she mused to him, her eyes bright as she spoke to him.

Sage hummed lightly and nodded. "I'll find someone soon then," he promised the girl. It was a big step, and he knew it...his stomach admittedly twisted at the thought of trying to learn to trust a stranger. He let go of the girl when she lay back, though wrapped them back around her when she came back up and chuckled. "Oh good," he chirped. "glad to hear that," he teased her lightly. It always did make him feel nice though, when she said things like that. He shrugged with a chuckle when she brought up his wording again, grinning down at the girl. "well, I couldn't think of that word so I used the next best thing," he noted with amusement. "Besides, I think it sounds cool, don't you," he joked.

Mari smiled in a very girly manner at him. "I always do!" She chirped to him. "And I'm sure I tell you that all the time, do I not?" She asked with a bit of an amused chuckle. "I feel like you should sound more enthusiastic about it, though," she teased him lightly. She then wrinkled her nose at him again, unable to help her laugh. "I refuse to believe that. I wouldn't have thought of undrunk as he first word," she then added with a bit of a chuckle. It really did amuse her, though... "or that was the next best thing to sober," she added with a very amused chortle.

Sage hummed lightly and leaned forward to peck the girl on the tip of her nose. "You mention it occasionally," he hummed lightly. "Maybe I'm just used to it by now," he teased her lightly. "Perhaps you should come up with some new compliments to express your undying love for me, hmm," he hummed, teasing the girl lightly. Then he grinned and shrugged lightly. "Well, my brain is weird," he chirped.

Mari hummed in agreement to him, her face lighting up when he pecked her on the nose. "Hmm," she huffed thoughtfully, cocking her head as she tried to think of what else she could possibly say. "I don't know," she complained to him. "What else do you possibly want me to say? I've called you hot, gorgeous, sexy, handsome, and probably more... what else could there possibly be?!" She asked with a bit of an amused laugh. "What do you want me to call you?" She asked in a bit of a squeak before shaking her head. "I think you need to get creative, too," she added lightly

Sage chuckled lightly in response to the girls complaint. "I don't know either," he chirped. "Maybe we'll both have to get creative then," he mused lightly. "But right now we're shoulder deep in water so there's not much I can do to you," he added mischievously, eyes glittering as he looked down at the girl happily. They were really just joking around, yes, but if their conversation could lead to something later, he certainly would say no to it. This was their honeymoon....they could be a little bit extra.

The girl cocked her head at him. "Creative, hm?" she asked curiously, her usual curious pout crossing her face. "Not much you can do to me?" She asked with a bit of a chuckle. "Say, now I'm curious as to how we're gonna get creative," she giggled childishly. She pouted at him again, tightening her grip around him. "I'm comfortable here, though," she complained to him with a bit of a laugh. She was simply teasing... and she certainly was interested to see what would happen if this led to something. There were loads they could try... and even more they could use during such, especially considering where they were and what was in the house.

Sage hummed lightly and nodded, though broke off with a chuckle when she said she was comfortable. "I didn't say we had to leave right this second," he laughed with a small head shake. "We can get creative later." Then he grinned. "besides, that gives me time to think about how I might get creative because so far I have absolutely no idea," he chirped happily.
