The Door opens onto the terrain at the base of Olympus, as always, but this second visit is slightly different than the first. They won't be hiking up the sacred mountain, not unless Clark wants to see it again, and the landscape is ordinary. Aside from being gorgeous and Mediterranean, anyway.

"Come on, my house isn't too far from here."

Eirene's smile isn't quite as blissful now, and the totally euphoric feeling has -- actually not disappeared, just lessened slightly.

Well, after a shifting around to adjust herself better against him, and smother a yawn that goddesses aren't supposed to let slip.

"Mmmkay." Yep, that's a drowsy tone. "Tomorrow we go find furniture."

"Yep." Clark snuggles down further, starting to drift off himself. "And a puppy, since the yard's too small for an elephant."

"I want an elephant for the yard." Or, at least, that's what she was supposed to have said, but Clark's arms are just too cozy, and he's warm, and Eirene is asleep halfway through that sentence, one hand settled just above his heart.

Clark gets the gist of it and just smiles, kisses the top of her head, and then shifts around one last time before falling asleep himself.
