Summary
“Jax. I know that this may be quite a difficult way to have woken up.”
Her voice is level. Not soft. Not sharp. Measured, practiced, like it does not need to negotiate its place in the room.
Jax does not respond right away.
The heart monitor beeps beside him, elevated and insistent, a reminder he’s still tethered to something. its rhythm syncing unpleasantly with the migraine still pulsing behind his eyes.
He swallows. His jaw tightens.
“…Just me?” he asks.
The question comes out quieter than he expects. Not hopeful. Not afraid. Braced.
The woman follows his line of sight briefly, her eyes passing over the cords, the headset on the floor, the mess he made. When she looks back at him, her expression has not changed.
“No,” she says. “You are not my only patient.”
That lands.

Summary
After tireless tuning, Jax has perfected his sneering mask. The cost? Endless thinking, day in and day out, determining how to perform, when to push someone's buttons, and who to throw in front of moving trucks. The calculation is near-constant, but his fortress? Impenetrable.
Until Pomni quite literally (and accidentally) brings him to his knees.
After experimenting with her silly cartoon body, Pomni discovers she can do something pretty neat with her eyes that can stop Jax in his tracks, and he cannot stop thinking about how to make her do it again. What follows are shenanigans, a ridiculous situationship, and about a thousand excuses for why Jax definitely needs Pomni to do the spinny thing with her eyes one more time.

This is a multi-chapter romantic comedy revision of my one-shot "The Soft Parts," which takes place after where Pomni discovers she has a secret hypnosis power and Jax discovers he really likes being controlled.
