Sage wasn't aware of Max's voice, or Roxie showing up at all. He could only the things his mind....and he definitely didn't want to see that. Of course, he didn't think he could stop it. The visions seemed to flicker after a few moments, as a result of whatever Roxie had given him, though he didn't know why they were flickering like that. After another few minutes went by, and they completely went away. Unknown to him, his eyes rolled back in his head completely and he sort of just....collapsed. He didn't know whether he was collapsing onto max or Roxie or the hard floor, but he was out cold as of then. But at least the visions had stopped. He was still wheezing for breath, and his pulse was still pounding a mile a minute, but he could calm down eventually. And hopefully, somehow, he could figure out what was wrong with him and maybe he could control these visions.

Max was hesitant but in the end she decided to take Charlie out to the store she needed to pick up some stuff anyways.

After they'd left Roxie sat on the couch with Sage waiting for him to wake up, she couldn't do anything if they didn't talk first.

Sage stayed that way for a while before he woke up. He woke up slowly, but then as soon as he was aware, his eyes snapped open and he jerked upwards, taking an almost crazed glance around the room. When he didn't see Max or Charlie, his heart climbed in his throat and he lunged at Roxie without thinking. "Where are they? What did you do," he practically screamed at her, shaking her shoulders. He didn't really know what he was doing....he taught himself everything, his parents never paying much attention to him. Yes, he was technically an adult, but he was barely 18....still really a kid. A kid way in over his head. But he was also a father. A husband. He had responsibilities he couldn't ignore. And he was quite honestly terrified about it all as of right then. He didn't know Roxie all that well...they'd grown closer over the years yes, but they still didn't see her often. But she was much, much older than he was ...and probably wiser, too. Maybe she knew something that could help. Though, he wasn't sure she knew his parents had never taught him to deal with these things, like they were supposed to.

"Relax..." Roxie said sternly "They're at the store so you and I could talk... I thought you might open up to me in an effort to spare Max..." she explained "You wanna tell me what's going on?" she asked raising a curious brow.

Sage huffed out a breath when Roxie told him to relax but plopped down on the couch again anyway. He shrugged slightly at Roxies inquiry and groaned slightly. "I don't know what's going on, or I'd have figured something out by now rather than freaking out," he snorted in a rather snappy manner. Then he gave Roxie a sort of apologetic look once he realized he wasn't being helpful. "At first it was just nightmares, but those are normal," he mused. "Then they got worse, and I figured I was just having some bad nights, which is also fairly normal," he admitted. He frowned then, trying his best to think. "But they didn't go away, and have just kept getting worse. I haven't slept more than a couple hours in the past week because I'm up puking my guts out in the bathroom," he growled, quite clearly annoyed at it all. "I never woke Max up...she needed to sleep," he sighed. "Then they started coming through the day...which I figured were just more flashbacks, but....they weren't, were they?" He was grasping for something to understand, because he had no clue what was going on and it was terrible. Terrifying.

Roxie listened and gave a nod "I saw inside your head... your most recent one anyways... you were overwhelmed by all the visions and not knowing what they mean... perhaps you should speak to Fate about this?" she suggested "She knows prophecies and visions better then anyone... Which I believe is what your visions are." she said "Putting it all on your shoulders doesn't help you either but I believe if Fate can maybe help you understand what you're seeing perhaps you'll feel better?" she offered.

Sage frowned slightly and cocked his head slightly. "Fate? Isn't she busy," he asked curiously. "I mean...I can try but I don't even know what to ask about. And we have more important things to worry about now, with Hades coming and all...and we still have to make a decision about what to do..." He trailed off and huffed out a heavy breath, closing his eyes against the blinding headache that was surfacing again. But if fate could help, then maybe he should talk to her.

"She might be but she might also already know what's going on..." She pointed out "She's the only one I can think of who is well versed in visions..." She told him "For now though if you like I can block the visions...?" She offered "Temporarily at least until you get through Hades...?" She offered "Unless you want to summon fate now?"

Sage sort of just sat there for a moment, staring a Roxie before shrugging. "I don't know, Roxie," he groaned. "I didn't even know I was one who could have visions....my parents didn't teach me this stuff. Heck they're the cause of half of my nightmares and flashbacks to begin with," he practically spat. He rubbed his temples tiredly and sighed, shaking his head. "What do you think I should do? What we should do?" Roxie was an elder demon...and Death now...and he did trust her judgement.

Roxie chuckled "Well your parents were humans... just like the rest of us... so of course they wouldn't know... you weren't born a demon you were made a demon because you went to hell for your sins..." She reminded him "You became a demon over time... why do you have visions? I don't know... I didn't know you could or would have them... I've never seen or heard of a demon having visions." She shrugged "As far as you... I'd summon Fate and hear what she has to say... As far as your family... if it were me... I'd age Charlie... 2 years old should be old enough for her to pass Hades tests if her dad trains her..." She pointed out thinking for a moment "You know... you haven't been a demon as long as a lot of the others have..." She pointed out "Perhaps that's why you can do the things you can do... like have kids... I've never met another demon who still has the ability aside from you... Then again no demon has done half the things you have." She chuckled.
