Assuage is a useful verb with good connotations. It can signify that someone has been absolved of guilt or that someone’s temper tantrum has been diffused. These are generally good things to do.
It’s also fun to say. Go ahead, say it.

I always pronounced this word like “massage,” and it did not help that the meaning of assuage fit the general feel of a back rub, no pun intended.
