The sun was already solidly in the sky when Jesse dragged himself home. He stepped into the bathroom, and took a good look in the mirror. Right eye swollen shut, broken nose. Bloody and swollen. He set and bandaged his nose as well as he can. Clean the blood off. He starts taking off his clothes for a quick shower when a wave of pain crests up from his feet, into his head. Every muscle cinched, and he collapses to the floor. Tooth on tooth, grinding out powdered enamel, and suddenly he couldn't breathe. Throat closed and inhale impossible. 

Time to go to sleep, Jesse,  Firx pulled hard on the hooks in its host's brain. Jesse's eyes rolled back, his tongue swelled piebald, and he passed out. Seconds later, his eyes snap open-- the sclera inky black. The shadows around him put out tendrils, lift him to standing. His movements more like a marionette suspended from the deep shadows surrounding him. He looked into the mirror. Firx grinned, and so Jesse grinned. Firx turned to head out the door, and Jesse turned. He headed out the door.

Firx has an appearance to make.
