Cooper barked a laugh at Maika’s joke about aging like fine wine, shaking his head with a grin.
He chuckled as Maika played along with the idea of redecorating, waving a hand as if he could picture the scene she painted.
When Maika mentioned Mina, Cooper’s expression softened, a hint of pride gleaming in his eyes.

Wrinkles or not, it’s good to see you back in one piece,he said, his tone softening.
Can’t say that about everyone who’s walked out of this place. Seems like the ones who manage to make it always bring a little more wisdom with ‘em, even if they don’t admit it.

Yeah, last thing we need is Orlesians crowding in, sniffing around for “the latest rustic charm.” Might just ruin our cozy little hideaway.He shook his head, but there was warmth in his voice.
And no, don’t worry about the roof. I’d hate to see you take a spill. Besides, I’ll get to it eventually—Mina won’t let me rest until I do, anyhow.

You’ll hardly recognize her. She’s grown alright, and yeah, stubborn as a mule. Got a knack for questions that’d make a mage nervous. Keeps me on my toes, but… well, she’s the best thing that ever happened to me, if I’m honest.
