The sleepy murmur is also one of commiseration. Yes, it's a tough one. Yes, it sounds cold. Darras lets his eyes slip shut again as he thinks, half-asleep, still enjoying the feeling of being in their bed in their house, together, just the two of them.
He's quiet long enough that it might seem he's fallen back to sleep until, somewhat abruptly (and still quite drowsily), he says, "Maybe don't speak of the replacing. That's the part that sounds cold. And there's some things that can't be replaced, y'know. But there can be newness that comes. That's all right."
