Dr. Costigan leaned closer to Devan. “There is a problem.”
“A problem?”
“Yes. Evidently nobody’s thought about who is to go through the Needle’s Eye first. Have you?”
It looked innocent, that area just within the lips of the Eye. As Devan approached it, he had a fleeting impulse to jump into it... As he observed the curious, tense faces of those about the Eye, he wondered if any of them was controlling an urge to fall into the Eye.
Orcutt moved closer than the rest. “No pushing, boys,” he said. There was a laugh and tension lowered. He thrust his hand into the Eye. It disappeared. He moved his invisible hand down.
“Pretty chilly,” he said.
Suddenly he withdrew his hand, stood up. “This is ridiculous. I’m going through the Eye—all of me.”
