"Then let's make a plan." Mick grunted as he pulled April in close and started to rock her lightly. "Now go sit down, eat your grilled cheese and watch cartoons while I change my kid. Then I'll put her down for a nap and we can arrange a time to talk." A time without kids, hopefully. If they could find a way to wrangle that sort of thing.
"Life's an adventure, isn't it?" Leonard rolled his eyes and sat down as he'd been told, eating the grilled cheese while looking at the television and not actually paying attention. Once his plate was cleared off, he leaned back and on the whole it really wasn't surprising that he actually fell asleep on the couch like that, curled in on himself.
"Lisa! Leonard fell asleep!" Axel tugged on Lisa's sleeve to get her attention away from the cartoon and eyed Leonard's sleeping form like it was somehow dangerous and bad. Leonard was asleep and he was the adult and they needed him. He shuffled closer to Lisa as Mick came back in, unsure what to do.
Mick looked at Leonard and rolled his eyes. "Figures."
"It's okay, Lenny sleeps like that sometimes." By which she meant uncomfortably, mostly. Lisa was at ease, given she felt at home anywhere Mick was and so she wrapped an arm around Axel. "We can wake him up if you want to. Lenny!"
Leonard stirred, reaching up to rub his face. Damn.
"Lis." Mick hissed lightly, giving her a look and throwing his arms out. He should have had a proper sleep, he probably only got like fifteen. "Never do that to April." Mick warned before he looked down at Leonard and sighed. "Come on, you, go crash in my bed for an hour or so."
"No, don't." Axel tugged at Lisa, as if she could somehow defeat Mick's influence.
"April is a baby, Baby need to sleep a lot." Lenny's evidently didn't. Leonard gave his sister a look and slowly sat up straight, stretching. Sleeping like this wasn't exactly the way to avoid cramping up.
"It's fine, I'll sleep tonight."
"Yes! Axel wants him awake." Lisa was clearly prepared to fight for this against Mick if need be. Leonard just snorted and shook his head.

It seemed like the best way to go with this.
