Sage chuckled softly as she spoke, nodding along as he slid down to the floor. "I know," he sighed. "I just wish we lived in a world where we didn't have to," he noted simply, shrugging after a moment. "We'll get through it. We always do," he added, just letting his head tilt back and rest on her lap gently as she moved to tug his hair loose, a faint smile forming on his face. "Well good, because you might need to help me get up off the floor after this," he joked lightly. Really, he was glad to just close his eyes and rest there like this.

Mari furrowed her brows slightly at his comment, and sort of reached forwards to run her finger up the bridge of his nose and between his eyebrows. "Try not to think about it," she hummed softly, her fingers running into his hair as she started to figure out different plaits and such. "You know we'll all be okay - You, me, and the kids. They're smart enough not to let things get to them," she added, continuing just to mess around with his hair. She hoped it was the. She hoped they'd all be okay for a little while longer. She smiled softly at his joking, though. "I'll do you one better. I'll get you some blankets and pillows and we can camp out down here for the night," she mused.
