Sage chuckled softly at her first comment, wrinkling his nose when she poked him, though obviously not upset. "I'm plenty fit for my age," he huffed softly, eyes glittering. In all reality, he probably wasn't as healthy as he should be....but he'd gotten better. Getting sick was still dangerous, but not like it was before. He hummed happily in response to her next comment, nodding along. "And you're a great mom," he noted softly, before grunting. "Long as I don't go bald I'll be fine," he noted after a moment or so.

Mari rolled her eyes at him with an amused hum. "You are very fit, all considering," she agreed. She looked cross the room after a moment, a small hum escaping her as she thought about it. A few years back they would have thought he wouldn't make it through the day. But he had, and he was still here, running around and keeping their family afloat. It was crazy to see how the roles had reversed, and how far they had all come since. She smiled at his next comment, nodding. "I'd like to think so," she mused lightly. "Yeah... but I think you have to much hair to lose," she mused like. "You would look good all white though. Bald not so much," she teased gently.

Sage hummed lightly in response to her comment, just pondering how far they'd all come in the past few years. It was a little crazy to think about. Though, when she mentioned having too much hair to loose, he chuckled and nodded. "I certainly hope so," he mused lightly. "White I can deal with. Bald would be a bit odd," he admitted with a sort of snicker. "White I could look like a wizard and wander around in a robe and scare people at the market," he couldn't help but add with a cackle after a moment or so.

Mari grinned at him when he mentioned the hair. "But you already scare people at the market?" She teased lightly before moving to peck his nose. "Maybe I'll buy you a jacket for Christmas. See how we handle that? Then we can move onto a cloak," she mocked, sort of hovering over him the way an annoying fly might. "You'd be an awfully interesting wizard," she chuckled. "I do hope you go white rather than bald. I'd hate to see what you're hiding under all that hair," she hummed, obviously messing around. She'd seen what was under all that hair, and she had to say she rather liked it.

Sage rolled his eyes with a chuckle when she teased him, grinning over at her lightly. "Only sometimes," he protested with a grin, humming when she mentioned buying him a jacket first. "Maybe," he noted with a grin. "Though I would like to see Anya's face when I show up looking like a wizard," he snickered after a moment or so. He rolled his eyes when she said she'd rather see him white, rather amused they were talking about this. "Let's just hope that never happens," he mused lightly after a moment or so.

Maris eyes widened when he rolled his eyes at him, almost taken aback by the movment, though the gesture was clearly just a tease. "Most of the time," she corrected with a bit of a laugh. "The townsfolk hate to see you coming," she stated almost factually. It was sort of a fact. As much as she loved the man, he still held a sort of air about him. Especially when he was in a mood. Though, when he was talking about going all grey, growing out a beard and trying to wander around on a cloak - turning into a wizard, really, you wouldn't think it. The whole concept was amusing to her. "Anya would have a heart attack," she laughed. "You'd barely see the woman's face before she passed out. Atticus, on the other hand, would love it," she thought he would, anyway. Though, the teen would probably just be embarrassed to be seen with him. She then raised a brow at him, her head slightly cocked. "Hm. Im sort of fancying it," she noted as though thinking incredibly hard about something. She then held her hands up and shook them playfully. "Wizard Sage," she giggled.

Sage chuckled softly in response to her comment, shrugging when she mentioned most of the townspeople still didn't like him. "That doesn't surprise me," he noted, not entirely upset about it. "She might," he agreed. "Which is exactly why I'm going to do it one of these days," he chirped lightly. He should go visit soon....it had been a while since he'd last checked in. "Although I can't decide if att would hide from the public with me or become one himself," he admitted with a laugh. Though, he gave her a grin and a peck on the forehead when she said she fancied it, chuckling softly. "I think you'll fancy anything I do. Besides going bald, anyway," he noted lightly.

Mari bobbed her head from side to side, contemplating. "You could do it. Although, I'm not sure how the doctor would feel about you giving the future queen a heart attack." Mari looked acrossed the room for a moment, glancing out the window where she could still somehow see a turret from the castle. "At least give her a chance to become queen before you kill the woman," she noted, an amused twinge lacing her voice. To be honest, it would be rather amusing... although, she wasn't sure the guards would let a crazy wizard man through the gates. She looked back at him when she heard his laugh, an instinctive grin grossing her face. "He's a teenager. It could go either way," she hummed. "He'd either embrace the wizard or not dare be seen talking to you," she added with a bit of a laugh. Her grin widened when he pecked hee forehead and sort of shrugged at him. "I wouldn't have married you if I didn't fancy you," she assured, though her grin slowly turned into a more sly smirk. "You wouldn't have been able to keep me entertained if you didn't manage to somehow seduce me into staying with you," she noted in amusement .

Sage chuckled softly and shook his head. "The old man would grumbled but join in," he mused. "He'd make a pretty good wizard himself," he mused lightly. Though, when she mentioned Anya he chuckled softly. "Oh, don't worry, it'll take longer than that for all of this to turn white," he pointed out, gesturing to the rats nest he'd simply tied into a bun. "I'd be more worried about the horses seeing the robe and freaking out," he admitted before grinning in response to her comment about seducing her. "Ah yes, I seduced you with my terrible health and even worse personality," he snickered, shaking his head slightly.

Mari chuckled in response, but sort of shrugged and nodded. "He doesn't give super wizard. I think he's past that stage now," the woman couldn't help her amusement at the idea. The old man was a bit... strange, but she had a feeling he'd gone over the wizard look long ago. She huffed out a breath when he said it could take a while for him to go grey. "What a shame," she complained, wrapping a loose strand of hair around her finger and giving it a soft tug before letting it go again. Well, in truth, the whole conversation was just amusing to her. A meaningless conversation, but one that kept hee attention for sure. She waved her hand at him dismissively before shaking her head. "They need to be desensitised somehow. You're going to have the most bombproof horses for miles around." The horses were already pretty good. Sage had done an incredible job with them, and he managed to make a small name for himself because of it. She felt a somber smile cross her face, and shook her head at his snicker. "Your health is pretty bad," she mused in a teasing manner. "But your personality is alright. For the most part, anyway," a grin split her face as she brushed a few strands of his hair to the side. She caught herself staring at him, for just a moment before she spoke up. "But you're incredibly strong Sage, in more ways than one. And I'm so proud of us -of you- for what you've done here," she hummed, her grin turning into a small smirk. "And you know how gorgeous I think you are. That helps too," she cackled.
