“Are there any other downsides?”
Avery cocked his head to the side and studied them. “Really, the only other thing is that you, Blake, will have to learn additional skills to navigate the spirit plane. You’ll be even more drawn to Derek, and there are things you need to learn in order to ghostwalk safely. I can teach you, of course. If you so choose.”
Blake nodded, and Derek relaxed. Blake’s reaction so far was fairly positive, and he hadn’t jumped up and left yet, which was a good sign. He kissed the side of Blake’s head and heard a happy little hum issue from Blake’s throat.
Avery gave them the briefest of smiles. “So the downsides are huge, it’s true. But so are the benefits. Maybe we should talk about them for a little bit. I want you to be as informed as possible, so you know what you’re getting into.”
