Sage hummed softly in agreement to her comment, nodding slightly, though admittedly lazily since he was drifting off already. "I know," he mumbled, a yawn breaking his words. They'd settled down after that though, and he'd passed out pretty quickly. It had been a long day, and he was definitely ready for sleep.

Mari curled up after a while, and soon enough drifted off to sleep. It was quiet, peaceful... she really never felt more safe than when she was with him. God, she loved him so much. Nothing would ever change that, and hell, just like she'd said she'd never hurt him. She didn't think she'd ever forgive herself if she somehow managed to.

Sage slept rather well that night. He'd fallen into a deep sleep pretty quickly....no doubt since he'd been up since like four in the morning. He was glad to help Anya but sleep was definitely welcomed. He woke up later in the morning the next day, though stayed curled up with Mari, not quite willing to get up.

Mari woke up a little after Sage... maybe about eight the next morning, when the sun started to shine into her face. She hadn't been up as early as Sage had been, but even being woken up for that hour had set her off schedule a little. So, having a bit of time to relax before the kids stormed in was aways nice.

Sage felt Mari shift and hummed softly in a greeting, but didn't move other than tightening his hold around her waist slightly. It was nice to just lay around for a while and wake up a bit more though, before the day took a hold of them completely. They didn't often get time to spend together like this...it was a bit more common now that the kids were getting older and more independent, but even so they didn't get much time. So it was nice to lay around in the mornings a little bit.

Mari rested there for maybe another half an hour before moving to sit up a little, albeit very tierdly and groggily. She watched Sage as he rested for a while before letting out a slow breath. "Come make breakfast with me," she whispered softly. It was weekend... well, not really. The whole kingdom had two days to mourn the death of their monarchs. Not really much loved, but it was a day or two to get some peace and quiet.

Sage had sort of groaned when Mari moved to sit up, and sort of just rolled onto his back, laying there with an arm flopped over his eyes. At her comment though, he sort of grunted and patted her leg, agreeing to get up with her whenever she moved to actually get out of bed. She was still sitting there, so he'd take advantage of every possible second. He didn't especially mind getting up, but he was comfortable here too. She did get up soon enough though, and he moved to roll out of bed and follow her after tossing on a sort of comfortable jacket size the morning air was cooler than the air under the covers.

Mari wandered down the stairs quietly, going to turn the stove on to heat up a plan as she made some batter for some crepes. She had Sage help crack the eggs and things, although soon enough gave up making anything and wrapped her arms around his sides with her head on his shoulder. She stifled a yawn before giving him a little squeeze, eventually grabbing the bowl to pour into the pan.

Sage wandered downstairs after her, padding along groggily. He still wasn't really fully awake, but he was happy to mindlessly crack eggs and such while she stirred things together. When she moved to hug him, he obliged with a sort of chuckle before releasing her again and plopping down on a chair while she put the crepes in to cook.

Mari made a plate happily, issuing all the batter she could. She put them all on the plates, and set the table up with some melted chocolate, fruit and things. She popped a little plate down infront of Sage, the rest of it being for her children when they woke up... she'd let them lay in today. She sat down once she'd tidied up, and rested her head on the table with a heavy sigh, sort of half drifting off again.
