    Summary

    Ever since Carlos was little, he and his daemon have been fans of Dr. Lyra Belacqua. Both as the most groundbreaking experimental theologian of the 20th century, and as the heroine of dozens of fantasy-adventure children's stories (based very loosely on her own mysterious childhood).

    But Lyra's true legacy is still bigger than Carlos ever imagined...until he took a team of scholars to study Rusakov particles in the most theologically interesting community in Hispania Nova. Now his own day-to-day life is full of things like angels, witches, hooded spectres, portals between worlds, vague yet menacing branches of the Magisterium, and a man who walks around without his daemon and can read an alethiometer as easily as a stop sign.

    Summary

    He suddenly saw all the tiny things in a new light, as if understanding something about himself that he’d never thought to question before. The brief thrill in his stomach when Chip slapped a hand on his shoulder or back, or when Jay fixed his hair for him, running her finger over his scalp, moving between his corals to tame stray strands of hair that were standing up. The easy joy of having Pretzel attach herself to his hand, using suction to defy gravity and stay seated on him for hours. The lingering feeling of warmth that stayed with him hours after he was hugged, and the startling vulnerability he felt when a stranger touched him beyond a handshake. Sometimes, women would drape themselves over him in bars, hoping to find a new customer in him, and even if Gillion didn’t know what exactly they were offering, he always thought their bare skin against his felt—strange.

    “Jay,” he said, only a few days later, having mulled it over again and again. “I am hungry for skin.”

    "What."

    /////

    Or: Gillion learns what touch starvation is, and realises with horror that the definition fits him to a T.
