Before CapeCon
She makes it a habit to rise and greet the sunrise as the day begins every morning. More than one person has looked at her askance preferring no doubt to sleep in instead of be up while it is still dark outside.
But when you grow up in a society where there is no electricity and you are more dependant on the natural light it's easier to move with the rythyms of the planet.
So it is she moves carefully out from under John's arm just before sunrise and sits up in bed. It's the same bed they slept in together before...just under very different circumstances. Pausing for a moment she watches him in his sleep, the cares and worries of the day are smoothed out in slumber and there's a slight smile on his face.
Diana resists the urge to trace the smile so she doesn't wake him and slips into a chiton she brought with her before standing at the window watching the sky change from the deepest blue to hints of yellows and pinks that herald the coming of the sun.
So many things have happened, some of them sad like the disappearance of Themyscira, some of them good and her lips curve in a smile as she thinks about the night before. But it's all still a little overwhelming.
In a fiery display of golds and blues Apollo brings the sun chariot into the world, it will be a good day today.
