Summary
The little ticks on their watches glow green in the dark. He hadn’t noticed that before. He can just see the glint off Helly’s eyes with the light of them, his hand between the two of them on the floor under the bed in Kier Eagan’s replica bedroom.

Summary
What happens next is not in any handbook Seth’s walked her through.
Mark gasps and his hips jerk underneath her and his eyes roll back, and for a moment she thinks she’s somehow hurt him, but when she breathes in there’s something brand new running over her tongue, sweet and intoxicating and certainly not fear.
She’s never tasted it before from a human but she immediately knows what it must be: lust.
***
Helena is the worst sleep paralysis demon in Hell. When she's assigned to Mark, things go off the rails.

Summary
His blood’s humming under her ear as she presses the side of her face into his shoulder. And then something else is humming, like the noise the turntable makes in between songs but louder, staticky and strange, making her hair stand on end.
“D’you feel that?”
Mark just nods and holds her closer, his arms going stiff.
Helly peers over his shoulder at the silk-shaded lamp by the chair as it starts to sputter, making a sound like a trapped moth, then goes dark. And so does she.
***

***

Summary
He takes the glasses from her hand gingerly, slides them onto his face. Wow. Wow. She’s immediately steering him by the shoulders to the milky old mirror above Kier Eagan’s washbasin so he can see himself.
“Mark,” she breathes. “You look so good.”
***
Mark lets Helly have almost everything she wants. Kinktober day 20 (glasses)

Summary
She’s a little tipsy and has only been conscious for a few months. He’s kind of her hostage and actively hallucinating. It's a wash, maybe?

Summary
No outie he’s ever kissed has warped his sense of space, time, and identity, but that really doesn’t have anything to do with her technique. No use making her self conscious about it.
***
They kiss.

Summary
“Hey,” he says. “I’ve never come so hard I changed consciousnesses before. So you must have been really nailing it.”
“Oh my god,” says Helly into her knees.
