Sages ears flicked slightly when Celeste sat down by then again, tail thumping on the ground as he leaned into her touch, eventually flopping over to rest his head in her lap. It wasn't long after that the pains started up again, though, and a few hours later he had finished and collapsed against Celeste, breathless but glad to see the sun starting to rise.

Att morphed along with his father. Celeste cried through it all, she hated seeing the love of her life and her baby in so much pain. When it was over, Celeste wiped all the blood off of her baby, dressing him, and giving him back his little purple hippo before settling him down in his car carrier, where he fell asleep immediately. Celeste made sure her babies were okay before going back to Sage. She pet his head, scratching behind his ears gently, just how he liked. "How are ya doing wolfie?" She asked softly, wiping some of the blood away, gently, while petting his head.

Sage had just gone limp on the floor once it was all over, though when Celeste came to him after getting att settled, he opened his eyes to smile up at her tiredly. "Ok," he whispered. He'd be sore for a while ...and he felt bad about Celeste having to do more work with three new babies. But he'd do what he could. For now, though, he'd let her clean him up, get dressed, and get a good night's sleep. They all needed that.

Celeste got him cleaned up and dressed. They all slept in the morph house, all too exhausted to move back to their home. So Celeste curled up with Sage, under some new, clean blankets, gently petting his head and scratching inbetween his ears until he was sound asleep. Only then did she allow herself to dose off.

Sage let her wipe him down, settling down pretty quickly once he was dressed and comfortable, the pain medicine he took slowly taking a hold of his weary body. He passed out pretty quickly, just very thankful to have Celeste there with him.

Celeste slept peacefully with Sage.

Sage slept deeply, well into the next morning, only waking around noon and shifting with a sort of tired groan.

Celeste was already awake. She'd been up ever since early that morning. She was currently nursing Atticus who was still exhaused, though he was able to slowly suckle away.

Sage glanced over at celeste, smiling softly when he saw atticus could nurse. Good, he was faring pretty well then. Hopefully he felt better than he did.

Celeste noticed that Sage was awake and smiled, not getting up and moving from her spot in the middle of the babies, so as to not disturb Atticus' slow suckling. "Hey, baby," she hummed. "How are you feeling?"
