\u201cStop acting the fool and I\u2019ll stop treating you as one.\u201d One hand seized his elbow, and then it was as if she was falling, or the world went away; there was an unpleasant roiling in her gut.<\/p>\n

Summer blinked, shaking her head hard. \u201cWhat the fuck. Just happened.\u201d She could see Tony, hand still clutched close to his chest, and the reactor seeming to flicker in and out of view. And nothing else. All around stretched greyness, filled with dim and sourceless light. She turned, slowly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Tony went rigid at her touch, and then in surprise as he looked around quickly.\u00a0 His grip on the knife tightened further, and he clicked it open slightly, enough that he would be able to flip it the rest of the way open with a flick of his wrist.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat did you do?\u201d he demanded, forgoing looking around this new scenery (or lack thereof) in favor of keeping his eyes on her.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cI\u2014 I think we\u2019re in your mind,\u201d she whispered. Even that small sound carried in the space. \u201cSome kind of interaction between my gift and your time hosting the demon \u2026 \u201c<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cThen get us back out of here,\u201d he snapped, clicking the knife open and closed repeatedly, in a nervous gesture.\u00a0 True, it wasn\u2019t nearly as bright here\u2014why would the inside of his mind ever be bright?\u2014but why would he want her in here?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“I don’t know how we got \/in\/ here; I can’t get us out!” She frowned, folded her arms. “No, look, forget that for the moment. What is wrong with your hand, and what in the world is wrong with your mind?” Her eyes flared, and she slapped one hand over her mouth. Even then, her own voice said, “That’s not how I meant to say that.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
