Dark was preparing to go to the shops later, and was in the kitchen going through the pantries checking to make sure he had on his list everything they needed. At first during this, Daizi had Ivy, but when the desire to join Alec struck, she brought her to her husband, who simply strapped her to his back with the baby sling and talked her through what he was doing to her amusement.
After joining Alec in the music room, Daizi played with him until Dark traded Ivy back off so he could go to the store. Not long after he left it was naptime, and after Ivy was asleep in her crib, Daizi went back downstairs to sit on the couch and take some time by herself. Her plan originally was to just listen to an audiobook, but ended up falling asleep right there on the couch. There was just so much which always needed doing, and with the house quiet and everyone occupied and okay, her body just couldn't keep up.
It wasn't like she had been sleeping well, anyway. Ever since the incident with Xander, she kept waking up in the middle of the night, dreams of what had happened plaguing her. Distorted versions of events, anyway. Even then, in the middle of the day, her dreams went straight to cold, still air, a voice in the dark, pain, the smell of her flowers, and trying to run, but she couldn't escape. She tried to fight, but couldn't, she wasn't strong enough to, and in her dream she was screaming, but nobody came.
