"Up his butt," he goes on, looking Ford straight in the eyes with the most earnest expression and tone of voice he can manage. "It's going straight up his asshole, Ford. Right up there." Once he's done he cracks a grin, rubbing a few little circles over Ford's back because, fuck, who's gonna' call him on it?
"And unless The Actual Devil is a whole lot kinkier than I wanna' know about, it's not gonna' be fun for him. Look, I've dealt with ambitious guys before, okay?
