Warnings. Awkward. And sexy. Sexy and awkward. It'll all make sense soon. >>
Stepping consciously into a dream wasn't technically speaking in the realm of weird for a reincarnate of Morgaine Le Fay. Considering her own abilities and all the things she went through, this almost passed as normal, but it still always took Daniel by surprise. Before he'd met Mallory Reynolds, otherwise known as Frost, nothing surprised him. And he couldn't say he knew much about the Inception story, he'd never seen the movie and was only vaguely familiar with the jokes, but nothing at all compared to actually stepping into it. Actually stepping into Frost's world? It took his breath away every time, and so did she.
These nights with Frost in his room had become a semi-regular thing ever since she'd agreed to join them. It was much more comfortable than an empty warehouse and infinitely more secure, something that they'd both seen the benefits of. It was only Laura that had disagreed with it violently, and her mood had only worsened over the coming weeks. Daniel was at his wits end, he wasn't sure what to do with her and with everything else that he had to take care of, it was hard for him to find a time when they both weren't too busy to talk. He rarely saw her at night now, especially on the nights he had a session with Frost. Daniel was a smart man, he knew exactly why Laura was making herself scare on purpose, but Frost was helping him. She had to see that, didn't she?
What Daniel wasn't being completely honest with himself, or anyone else about was just how much Frost was helping him. It wasn't just the sessions. They talked a great deal, and in some ways he was very much aware of the growing connection between the two of them. He couldn't help it, but he wasn't trying to make anything of it either. Frost was off limits and he was with Laura, a fact he never needed to remind himself of no matter how close he was feeling to one woman over the other these days. The brave Jedi he'd fallen in love with all those months ago might as well have been a stranger to him now with the way she even avoided making eye contact with him these days. It was a problem he had to fix, but not right now. Selfishly, he looked forward to his sessions with Frost now and didn't so easily put them off. Which is how he found himself yet again alone in his room with her after receiving another round of silent treatment from his girlfriend.
They talked for a few minutes before they went in. Frost was a steel trap, one of the first things that Daniel had noticed about her and for whatever reason, he'd made it his personal goal to get her to open up a little during their sessions. As if they weren't just for him, he wanted her to get something out of them too. Then all too soon they were slipping into yet another dream, going through the range of exercises that Frost's perky architect had designed. It usually went well. Daniel was a fast learner, but you couldn't avoid your projections forever.
"Does it always feel this... clean?" Daniel squinted up at the sky of his subconscious before looking back at Frost, careful not to notice how nice her hair looked in the sun light. "I always feel so clean down here. Purged. It's no wonder people get sucked into this place."
