I sit dumbly as I try to think of a diplomatic way to say that Ryann is just completely wrong. Either resisting Incubi is totally impossible OR Harry has way less control than she thinks.

“Ryann… Are you totally sure about Harry being controlled?” I ask quietly. She nods.

“Sure, he’s an expressive person, but I think that’s part of how he manages his emotions. He lets them out so he doesn’t let out his magic. It makes sense to me at least.” She hesitates a little, probably because she’s making a lot of assumptions there.

“I can sort of see that.” I agree. It’s starting to feel a little weird talking about Harry like this. Was it a mistake to basically go to his friends to get info on him? It’s starting to feel a little creepy. It was fine when I was asking about Incubi in general, but asking about Harry… I feel like this is something that I should be talking about with him. Still, maybe I’m just vulnerable

to Incubi magic because I’ve never been around it until him. Is that a thing?

I like to think of it as Harry manages to control like ninety five of the emotions he has around me so I just feel a little of his magic. Of course you’re going to feel way more, he HAS way more feelings around you and I suspect that he has less control around you because he’s

Like he refused to come see us last night because he didn’t want to make us ‘pissed off and miserable‘ to phrase it his way.” Ryann sighs and Megan pouts. Great, now I feel even worse. Harry is sitting around alone while I have all his best friend’s undivided attention as they try to make ME feel better. Actually, they’re not trying to make me feel better. They’re just trying to fix the situation as a whole. That’s the whole point of this conversation and I need to remember that. So, what have I learned?

But their magic does tend to stick to one person if that’s who they’re obsessing over. I mean, I’m sure if he worked on it, Harry could drag out some kind of feelings of attraction
