Sage chuckled lightly at her little joke and tugged her blanket over so they were wrapped up in it together, and he could wrap his arms around her so they could cuddle up closer. "Luther's a fun guy," he murmured. "Not the best at sneaking around, but he's fun to annoy people with," he giggled. "Though, he does seem to think I'm a bit crazy, which is probably spot-on," he mused, remembering Luther's quick reaction to hide when he burst in on the queen's secret war meeting or whatever the heck that was. She hadn't given him a time limit on that, so he could take his time, though he knew hed have to get it done somewhat soon.

The girl hummed for a moment as he pulled her in and cuddled up under the blanket with her, a slight blush growing on her face and she grinned. "Yeah, he's right, you are a bit mad. But that's fun, I suppose." She noted with a slight smirk, gently tickling his side in a slightly more playful manner. She had definitely woken up a bit more... but she didn't have the motivation to face the day just yet. She was comfy here, with Sage, even if they weren't doing anything other than cuddling up. He was warm and safe, and she didn't want to pull away. "It's good that the two of you are friends... Luther gets lonely, I think. It's good that he gets to mess about." She murmured quietly, a small smile on her face as she kind of melted into him, one leg loosely entwined with his and her head resting on his chest now.

Sage squirmed with a giggle when she tickled him, then quickly settled down again when she wrapped herself around him. He found himself running his fingers through her hair gently, without thinking about it. He chuckled and nodded "you royal people have to follow so many rules," he laughed. "Ya gotta be stupid and mess around sometimes. Even Luthers still gotta act like a dumb teenager sometimes." He smiled softly up at her. "He's a good guy. The two of you will make good leaders."

Anya nodded slightly and closed her eyes for a moment when he started playing with her hair. "Ugh I know," she groaned quietly with a small chuckle, "but since I met you I've gotten better at the whole messing around loosening up thing. And from the sounds of it Luther has too. He's never really relaxed around me." She shrugged with a slight smile. Sage really had been good for them... the both of them, really. She had gotten Anya to break down her walls for him without trying, and she'd quite literally do anything for him now. And he'd be good for Luther too. To give him a friend, someone to really cause trouble. Anya sat still for a little while as she thought before sitting up a little and leaning on her forearms before pressing a kiss to his lips. "God, I love you, Sage." She giggled out of the blue. She had just kind of been thinking about everything she'd done with him over the past few months... hell, she would have met him about a year ago in a few weeks. Every moment she had spent with him had been bliss, even the slightly... messier times. He made the bad things not seem so bad, and the good even better. And there was nothing she could say or do to tell him how much that meant to her.

Sage was admittedly a bit surprised at her sudden response, though he couldn't say he didn't like it. He closed his eyes briefly when she kissed him and smiled at her once she pulled away ....not far, but their lips no longer pressed together. "I love you more," he chirped with a slight giggle. He knew she'd probably argue, but it'd be a playful argument, about their love for eachother, so really it wasn't even an argument at all. He could feel his heart leap when she said that...he knew she loved him, her actions showed that. But hearing it come from her mouth seemed to just be ... Well, quite frankly it was just amazing

Anya grinned brightly, her heart skipping a beat when he said it back. She didn't think he'd ever actually told her that he loved her before, and while she knew he did, it was even better to hear it directly from him. She shook her head slightly, "No, you really don't," she giggled childishly. Man, this was going to turn into one of those little 'I love you more' arguments, wasn't it? The idea of those had always made her cringe a little... but she could mess with the idea when she was with Sage. Just like how she wasn't normally cuddly, she just turned into a limpet when she was with him, wanting to be with him the most she could. Most likely some deep seated affection issue form growing up in the castle, but whatever. If Sage was willing to put up with it, then what reason did she have to stop?

Sage chuckled and kissed the tip of her nose lightly. "Hmmm, I don't know about that," he giggled. Though, she was the only one he'd ever loved like this, so maybe he was just a clueless, touch starved kid who was grasping for any type of positive feelings he could find. But he didn't think that was the case...this had come about pretty slowly.

(It's short I'm out and about today lol)

(Dw! I've gotta make dinner so this is kinda short too.)

Anya hummed slightly, closing her eyes when he went to kiss her nose. "Oh, really?" She purred mockingly, fiddling with his hair for a moment before smirking. "I don't believe you," she cooed gently, a teasing glint in her eye as she flopped on her back again, pulling the blanket off him and in a joking fashion before rolling away. She was purely messing about with him a little, trying to get a bit of a laugh going.

Sage cackled and crawled after her. "you can't get away from me that easily," he purred. That led them on a little bit of a tag game, sage eventually grabbing Anya and carrying her back to the bed with a giggle and flopping down almost so that he was pinning her down on the bed, just without physically pinning her ....he was just over her, propping himself up eith his firearms. He gave her a wide smirk. "How much do you love me," he purred, in a teasingly flirty manner. He so hoped she would blush ...she'd probably roast him, like she always, did, but he was more than ok with that.

Anya squeaked out a laugh when he picked her up and chucked her back on the bed, the biggest grin growing on her face as she gazed up at him. A light blush slowly started spreading across her face as she tried to conceal her giggles, which eventually died down, but her blush only got heavier the longer she peered up to him. He'd probably tease her about that later on. She hummed softly as she pretended to think of her answer. "Hmm... maybe more than I should... more than words could say." She purred, her voice becoming slightly more flirty as she sat up slightly, gently slipping a hand around the back of his neck with a slight smirk before pressing another kiss to him before letting herself flop back again. She found that her heart was speeding up, most likely from the way she was under him. She wasn't used to it really... they were only messing around. but she didn't hate it, far from it, actually.
