Kent/Feldspar
"Just once more," they had said when Ellie's team petitioned for it. She was busy with Palmer, falling in love with science while he fell in love with God, and Kent was left to pick up the pieces. He wanted another damn go at it. The Machine had a pricetag in the billions; it was begging to be used again.
But they wouldn't let Ellie go. They wouldn't let just anyone go. They wanted someone who knew how it worked, who had been there from the beginning, but someone who isn't completely taken in by Ellie's words.
That leads them to a dozen people and they end up with Kent. He's blind, but that's not what decides it. They claim that he wouldn't hallucinate the way Ellie did. That he has a unique perspective.
And, he's already proven himself steady and loyal.
He experiences it all the way that Ellie does, but something goes wrong on the other end. Maybe another terrorist attack. Maybe not. All he knows is that he's in the sphere and then, suddenly, he's floating, unable to find his footing until a great crash and he slams into the bottom of the machine.
He groans, pulling his helmet on with a grunt and a wince.
"Fuck this," he mutters, finding the edge of the sphere with his hands. There was a door there somewhere. He just - has to find it.

Kent presses himself close, not intending on leaving. "Now you have to be quiet," he murmurs.

This might be harder than they thought. Why did they have to get out the bottle of wine?

They bite their own lip hard and sink back into Kent’s slender finger, just to prove that they can handle this no problem.

He kisses their neck, biting gently at their skin there.

They gasp as quietly as they can manage and grab at Kent’s arms, digging their fingers into his toned biceps. “If you’re gonna bite you better leave a mark,” they whisper.

"Fels told me why you're so desperate for me," he murmurs against his skin.

“Did they? How the hell would they know?” But as they say these exact words they realize - and honestly, it seems pretty stupid that they didn’t realize it was their mating cycle.

But when Kent pulls away they threaten to moan loudly in disappointment, but quickly bites their own lip to keep the noise in. They sit up instead and help tear away at Kent’s clothes.

He sits back, pulling the blankets off of the bed and onto the floor.
