Sage nodded along, their words rather amusing. Their situation didn't come about very often, he supposed. Though, he looked down at the wolf with a smile when he flopped against him. "I can deal with that," he noted lightly

Sage just settled down happily as they say there, chatting about whatever came to mind. He'd started to open up with her a bit, he supposed....he trusted her not to attack or do anything along those lines. She'd care for him and Liz as much as he'd care for her. They were close, exactly....but they were companions. Partners in whatever adventure they'd find themselves in. They'd grow together, he had no doubt about that.

Sage glanced over at the princess and nodded, offering her a small smile. "Get some rest," he noted lightly, waving her off. They'd had a long day, and the next few days wouldn't be any easier, so they'd need all the rest they could get. There wasn't much to worry about since they were safely in a cage ...but still. Keeping watch was a good idea.

Sage watched her body relax, and he let out a quiet sigh after a while, just glancing around him. It was scary to hope for anything....that's how you got disappointed. And he always had gotten disappointed. Or hurt....very hurt. He couldn't do that again. It was foolish..but he couldn't help but hope this time maybe something would work out.

Sage glanced over at her when she jolted awake, recognizing the nightmare reaction. "Wanna talk about it,* he asked quietly. Asking if she was alright wasn't what she'd want to hear, he knew. But if she wanted to talk, he was there.
