Lift off your arms and I'll get the coffee
She’s not overly startled when he speaks, voice too clear to convince her he’s awoken at her voice alone. Though she does affect a wry expression of loving exasperation at his impeccable deceit. Though imagining him on a stage or in a production is humorous, his acting would put everyone to shame if he ever felt inclined to join their ranks. Even years at his side haven’t granted her all the insight just yet.
As he maneuvers sideways she turns yo sit on the sliver of couch next to his hip instead of the coffee table, arm resting over the back to peer down at both man and babe. “I can’t accomplish some of the wild ideas you came up with,” she teases, though surely with their magic combined it wouldn’t be completely out of the question. “It’s nice, though. Doing it. I thought the nesting urge would fade after he was born but…” Evie’s eyes trail to Erebos’ sleeping face and her expression softens further, besotted. “I don’t know. There’s something about keeping the world out there and my family safe in here that felt good to do alone. Like defending Halo but…more.” She shrugs her elevated arm awkwardly, the soft lighting and the picture on the table behind her wrapping her up in its spell. “But I’m sure we can find more for you to do, or help me finish.”

There's sleep in your eyes, I'll pull the curtains back gently
