Sage chuckled softly when she spoke up again, throwing her a slightly amused glance when she mentioned him. "I'm glad you think so," he noted with a grin. "You're not too shabby yourself," he added, nudging her gently. As she mentioned dliz though he chuckled and glanced over at the younger girl. "I'm certainly not complaining," he noted. He loved her, a lot, but getting to just relax in the morning was ...quite nice.

Sage chuckled softly when she went quiet, shaking his head in amusement. "Hopefully she'll stay down a bit longer," he murmured. "I like it when we have some time just the two of us," he admitted, though he kept his voice quiet. He loved Liz and the time he had with her, of course, but this was nice too.

Sage shifted to wrap an arm around her as she curled back into his side, humming softly in agreement. "When she does wake she'll have enough energy to wear us both down though," he noted with a chuckle. Then, after a moment, " I'm glad we met ...even if it was a bad situation at first," he murmured, tightening his grip on her slightly.

Sage winced softly, though mostly in play. Ouch," he noted with a chuckle. "Then why on earth did you pick me to protect you instead of noticing me and having me drug off somewhere," he mused, mostly just teasing her. Though, he gave her a quizitive look when she mentioned she wanted him to stay. "Do you normally find yourself attracted to thieves who come into your room in the middle of the night," he asked, still teasing her a bit.

Sage just shook his head with a soft hum when she mentioned giving people second chances. "You're nicer than most people, then," he noted. He was thinking about how that all worked out, but then she'd spoken up again and he couldn't help but laugh. "I think you're biased," he teased gently. "But I suppose I'll take the compliment," he added with a grin and moving to peck her head lightly.
