Medusa and sleep are two things that often do not get along. Even if her dreams are free of nightmares now (and isn't she glad of that - even when she didn't wake up screaming, she'd be whimpering and moaning and causing a scene) it's still...
I walked beside the evening sea

Strange.
And dreamed a dream that could not be;

She mostly sleeps during the day, when it's safe. She sleeps with her arms curled around Sam's pillow when she can't get Sam himself, face buried and snakes lying this way and that. Tangled up in the sheets, wings out, and for such a small person, Medusa takes up a lot of room.

The waves that plunged along the shore

And she dreams. She dreams of the ocean that is her home, of the cliffs and clouds. She dreams of the waves giggling with the voices of her sisters and she dreams of her triplets in the new and empty world in which they'd been born. She dreams of babbling in their own language and trying to pull Stheno's hair as Euryale aims for her feet and-

Said only: "Dreamer, dream no more!"

And when she wakes up, blearily shoving the pillow onto the ground, she can't remember anything. Dreams are like that, sometimes.

D:

Sam does not approve. Sam does not approve a great deal.

But, on the other hand, food.

"I feel so, so used," he informs her mournfully.

Stealing curry!

(Sneaky Sam are sneaky.)

Sam despairs, he really does.

"Iiii think the floor. Picnic!"

He had noticed, yep.

Sam flaps a hand at the sheet, straightening it. Well, more or less straightening it, anyway.

"Where'd you pick that up, anyway?"

He means the slang, not the manners.

"I've not met her," Sam says, sitting down with legs curled. "Is she in the bar?"

"Eep."

Pause.

"Zeus isn't in the bar, is he?"

It's not Sam's Zeus, of course, but still.

He spoons some rice and curry onto his plate before reaching for a fork.

"Oh, good. I know it wouldn't be the same Zeus as mine, but your universe likes its doppelgängers. And he's liable to make me nervous."

Sam eats his own food delicately. "Afraid so. You get used to fitting in."

Sam laughs, a lot.

"He may have a point. But it does work better with some foods than with others."

Chocolate, for instance.

Solemnly, "Inventively."

"My tongue is very useful," Sam chirps.

...No, he would never try to make Medusa blush. Don't be silly.

In no way, shape or form.

That's why he's not smirking, of course.

Nom.

Sam doesn't need to say anything. That wicked look in his eyes as he eats pretty much says it all.
