[He pets Five's hair softly to avoid not waking him, checking his dreams to ensure they aren't full of fire and death before addressing Lahabrea quietly.]
He's worried about you. I'm worried about you. And yes, I know you don't want to hear it, but that doesn't make it any less true.
[He keeps his arm draped over them both, fingers curling against Emet's side, voice soft.]
It is not that I do not want to hear it. I am deeply endeared by how much consideration you both want to show me. I worry for both of you, after all. I do understand.
But what concerns me and keeps my heart heavy is not you two. I've told you both that it brings me joy to see you share such happiness.
Then we will discuss is soon. And while Five is a gift I never thought possible, you are also incredibly precious to me. Such joy you bring to my life as well.
[He leans over to kiss his cheek.]
Cast off your worries for this one night. We could all use some peace.

[He strokes Hades's cheek with his fingertips. Kissing the tip of his nose.]
I do intend not to worry. So settle in, holding you both for the night shall be quite pleasant enough.

[He wraps his arms around both of his very small but deeply important men in his life.]
Rest well, my dearest friend.
