Detective O'Reilly

Tyrone had trusted the policewoman, Tandy had wanted to see for herself. And now-

She was in the police station, recognisable even with the darkness creeping around the corners, and it was filled with the usual cops. And right in the middle of all of them was O'Reilly, stark naked in her nightmare, trembling with her feet planted, too shocked to move.

She was desperately trying to cover herself, one arm in a V over her chest, her other hand between her legs, her eyes darting from side to side.

Every single one of her colleagues had their eyes fixed on her, none offering to help, some pointing, most laughing.

Naked at work. Almost a cliche nightmare. Tandy would've snorted, if she hadn't immediately realised that she was in the same boat.

She was sharing O'Reilly's nightmare! Tandy gave a sudden, shocked scream, finding herself completely naked in the police station.

Oh god, no, no, this wasn't what she wanted. Tandy screwed her eyes shut, trying to focus-

Nothing. No, no, let her out of the detective's mind. She focused again, hands momentarily shining with light; nothing happened.

And then she realised that the cops had turned to face her. Oh god, they could actually see her! Tandy yelped again, hurriedly crossing an arm over her chest.

Figments or not, she did _not _want those people to see her naked! She panicked, only succeeding in making her body shine with a soft light, illuminating her nudity even more in the dim environment.

"No, no," she muttered.

Wait, think Tandy, think; Hess had a whole world in his mind, so O'Reilly's had to be more than this room. She just had to get out and find somewhere to hide. Maybe find clothes, assuming this world would let her get dressed.

Tyrone would be able to help, surely? He'd gotten her into Hess's mind, maybe he could help get her out. He'd visit O'Reilly sooner or later, and-

Oh god, but time was weird when it came to these visions. Like dreams, what could take minutes or hours might only be seconds out in the real world. She couldn't be naked for that long!

Flushing, Tandy backed away. She just had to get out of this office, away from the staring officers. She backed away; as if reacting to her presence, O'Reilly noticed her. For the first time she moved, tearing her feet from where they'd been stuck on the floor, coming to Tandy's side.

"You too?" O'Reilly said, voice shaking. "I can't believe this is happening to me!"

"Y-yeah," Tandy said.
