"No kidding?" Her smile hints at indulgence, but the look in her eyes is all appreciation. "I love you, too."
It would seem the baby's pretty damn fond of him, too.
She doesn't think they've seen eye to eye on how tight-lipped she's stayed about him with the others, or at least with Hero. But he's not telling her what to do, and she's glad about that.
They're probably spending even more time together than ever before, even considering that they've been shacking up for years, and yet she misses him.
It's stupid, she knows, but they have to steal moments. He gets to see her all the time, and she gets to see him... sometimes. Things can be so unpredictable that they can't even always arrange to sneak around and get some time together.
And it must be a real pain in the ass to have to wear that cloak all the time.
He does it for her, but she wishes he didn't have to.
