Her manner seems different and Finn, ever the empath, picks up on her change in mood. However he doesn't question it, himself prone to needing random bursts of solitude, an introvert if ever there was one. "Why don't you let me change him? Head on to bed, I can handle it." He gets up, hovering aroudn her, ready to take the baby should she offer him the opportunity. He didn't want to be one of those dads who left the gross stuff to the mother, not if he could help it. "Don't worry, that McDonalds will be long gone by the time you wake up. Won't it, Ollie? Won't you and daddy have a great time eating burgers and drinking beer?" he babbled, doing an exaggerated baby voice. He scooped Ollie out of her arms, he was awake now, smiling like he understood the joke. "I'm serious, get some rest. I got it."

Jada is suddenly out of energy and feeling lost with words. It's as though she pulls at a plug and is rushing into the sewer. It's best to abandon ship and swim towards shore instead of completely drowning. "It's okay," she hogs Ollie closer, glancing down protectively at the boy in his alligator patterned onesie. She relents after a moment, shimmying the baby from her arms to Finn's, "keep the hard stuff for the weekend." She smiles apologetically, "I'm sorry, I'll only be a little while. Then I'll be rested enough to entertain."

He feels the faintest flicker of irritation at her not handing the baby over, the idea that perhaps she doesn't trust him to do as good a job as her entering his mind for not the first time. He banishes it though, knowing this to be a universal response from first time mothers, something hardwired into women after nine months of carrying round a baby inside them. Of course she relents, and he feels bad for ever feeling any annoyance at all. Bouncing Ollie, he nodded towards the bedroom, shooing her. "Go on. Don't be sorry, you don't owe me anything. Take your time."

Jada hovers over Ollie and plants a kiss on his fat cheek. "Just give me five minutes of alone time. I'll leave the door open, come in if you want," she feels the need to make the offer, offering them both a loving smile as she backs inside and leaving her drink sit half full on the table. Jada pulls the duvet and a couple of pillows from the couch and back to her bed, lays down on top of her messy sheets and pops her Spotify on shuffle.

He places Oliver against his shoulder, waving her away before rubbing the baby's back in small little circles. "I'll keep him occupied, hopefully he won't start screaming the place down. Go, if you don't close the door I'll close it behind you," he chides, following her up to the door to keep his promise. Once closed, he settled back down on the couch, flicking the TV to the Defenders and settling in with the baby.
