In the old stories, humans who dare come too close to the Gods never do so without price. Lin awoke from her nap on the back of the sled to darkness; and Rex's gentle but firm hold around her shoulders when the medic informed her that her eyes had sustained too much damage to repair. There was a chance, the medic said, that her eyes would heal enough for surgery, if she was lucky.
After the medic left the room, Rex sat on the bed next to her and took her hand in his. She felt a weight on her other side, and a callused hand picked up her free one. “Max,” she said.
“That'd be me,” he said. “I'm sorry about your eyes.”
She shook her head. “No. It's right, I think. We're not meant to look upon the Gods, and something had to be traded.” She lowered her head and squeezed their hands. “But if I stumbled on Diana in the polar dome, and Apollo spends his spare time managing solar energy…” she trailed off. “Just who else is doing what?”
It was a question for another time. She reached out for the touch of her two lovers, finding comfort in the warmth of human touch as it seeped into her, filling her even at the cold center where Diana's pull had once lodged. Replacing it with the warmth of connection.
