I read this story with some nervous anticipation, a little worried that I would find it all too freaky. But no, I should have had more confidence in my own kinky side!
This story surprisingly sucked me right in - weird but totally intriguing. But as much as I tried, my imagination just failed me when I tried to visualise Inna and all those tentacles!
"I don't see what the problem is with different," he murmured, catching a handful of hair. He shrugged a shoulder at him. "I kind of like it."....so very true!
The downside? It was over too soon!

Psys and syncs and Commanders with hair color that changes like a octopi, is there something to be wary of here? Or something to celebrate - because science fiction with aliens and military and space is one of my favorite things when done well - and it was done well here, and good science fiction/story makes you at ease even if you began suspicious. Hope there is more of these two soon!

There is some elegant, evocative writing here and I loved the connection and sizzling tentacle sex between Jack and his commander, Inna.
The story is brief, a little too tame, and felt a little rushed. Just a few more details about the world these two very different men inhabited, some description of Jack’s Psy abilities and Inna’s unusual anatomy would have made this story a little more satisfying for me.
Overall, it’s fun and imaginative and I’m happy I read it.

This was a delicious little nugget which I hope, will one day turn into a novel. It was hot, sexy, and there were tentacles.... yum.
Great writing. The world building was fantastic for this vignette.
Definitely a tease, and I would ask Alex Mar to write more *begging eyes*

This is my gracious loser face.
Not only did Alex Mar snag my desired LHNB prompt because I was all slow and talky-talky instead of quick and grabby-grabby—she friggin' nailed it.
I AM SO ANNOYED.
This is a terrific erotic vignette. Deft and sparing with the details—where they are, what they're doing, who does what to whom—the deliberate holes in the setting invite all kinds of marvelous conjecture.
Great lines and lovely imagery—ach, I wanted to Break All the Things for jealousy.
And then hot sex?
With really lovely characterization and subtle tension and—
—AND an extra-clever bit of cephalopod biology thrown in for erotic effect?
Motherfucker!
Annoyed. SO ANNOYED.
Highly recommended.
