Crash
Kalypso was tired enough that she had to sleep. Normally she could just choose not to waste time sleeping, but today she needed to sleep. She had spent the better part of the past two weeks traveling and for her traveling meant between Olympia and Titan. The Eternals of both Earth and Titan needed to be warned of the threat the deviants posed and her cousin’s dream of Thanos.

Interplanetary travel was quite taxing and her stores of cosmic energy were depleted.

She landed on Jack’s fire escape and barely managed to use telekinesis to open the latch and open the window. Jack would be in class right now and wouldn’t be home for a few hours. Kal would use that time to sleep and recharge.

She crawled inside and fell facedown on the bed.

	Kal put a tk bubble around them as the higher they went. Jack needed oxygen and not so cold temperatures. She kept going up until they were in the upper atmosphere. She broke the kiss and smiled. "Look down." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He smiled back and did as she asked. His grip on her tightened a little. Not that he was afraid she'd drop him, just .... wow, they were really high. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It looks so calm and peaceful from up here," she said with a note of sadness in her voice. "One could almost forget all the bad things." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jack kissed her temple. "Don't think about the bad things before you have to." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Easier said than done, my love," she said and kissed him. They slowly started to descend. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I know, but it's no reason not to try." He stroked her back as they descended. "I'm going to try my hardest to help, but don't let that stop you from talking about it with me. I can't help if you don't share, sweetheart." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I know," she said. "It's just...thank you. You're absolutely wonderful and more than understanding. My crazy family...." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He chuckled. "You love your crazy family, but I know what you mean. Everybody needs a hideout, even if it's another person." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kal kissed his cheek and hugged him. "Will you be my hideout?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jackmurdock 2010-01-21 08:29 am UTC (link)
	"You know I will." He squeezed her tight. "I kinda like coming home and finding you there." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Don't let my mother hear you say that. Or think it. She'll have all my stuff moved over again." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jackmurdock 2010-01-21 08:59 am UTC (link)
	"Which is why I said it out here and nowhere we could be overheard. When and if we decide to move in, it'll be better if it's our decision." He kissed her ear. "And sometimes it's fun to tweak her a very little bit." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2010-01-21 09:02 am UTC (link)
	"Yes, but remember not to think it anywhere near her," Kal said. She knew her mother wouldn't invade private thoughts, but there was the occasion where a stray surface thought could be picked up. Kal smiled. "It is. She needs to be tweaked once and awhile." Kal paused their descent and kissed him. Then they teleported into Jack's apartment. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He was getting used to teleporting. His superb balance kept him from stepping back when they appeared in his living area. He held her for a long moment before whispering in her ear. "Hot shower, movie, back rub?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2010-01-21 11:46 pm UTC (link)
	Kal held on to him for support for a few moments. Teleporting always took a lot out of her and left her weak for a few moments. "Sounds wonderful," she said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jackmurdock 2010-01-22 06:23 pm UTC (link)
	"How water coming up." He picked her up and carried her into the small bathroom. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	notinplainsight 2010-01-23 12:47 am UTC (link)
	"I love you, Mr. Murdock," she said and kissed him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	jackmurdock 2010-01-27 05:51 pm UTC (link)
	He put her hand over his heart and held it there. "I love you, Ms. Sersi. Don't you forget it." (Reply to this)(Parent)
