Daphne is not in the relatively safe areas of her hometown or college campus, so it isn't really all that surprising when she suddenly is in a random forest instead of walking back to her car.
It's a little surprising; normally she is permitted to enter random forests of her own will. But not that much.
She starts walking, looking for whatever inane plot she will be required to participate in/thwart this time.
Eventually she sees a cottage. She makes for that--random houses in the woods are prime weird shit locales.
She knocks on the door. "Excuse me! I don't know what's going on here but I'd rather get it over with sooner rather than later so I can go home!"

"It takes a while, though, and there's no way of being sure of becoming a ghost instead of just dying."

Nod. "Where do they all live, if there are more places than just Fairyland and here?"
"Fey Realm fairies live in the Fey Realm, obviously, demons live in Hell, angels if they exist live in Heaven if it exists, and ghosts live in the mortal realm."
"Again, I can't confirm how angels and/or Heaven work, but demons...no. Generally people summon them and dismiss them."
"If you mean why does it work that way I have no idea. If you mean why do people do it, well, they have lots of reasons."
"Well, a lot of people are evil, and want the demons to be bad news at someone else. There are also succubi and incubi, which are sex demons, and people summon those because they want to get laid."
"The sex demons need sex energy to...well, not to live, exactly, but it's food to them. For them, sleeping with someone has about the same emotional meaning that...wait, food envassals you. Well, it has the emotional meaning that having someone make you a sandwich has for mortals. A really good sandwich, if it's really good sex."
"The problem with sex demons is that the nastier ones don't care if people want to feed them," Little Bird says quietly. "They don't...hold someone down and force themselves on them, but they have this mojo thing that makes them so attractive it inhibits your ability to say no."

"Oh. ...Are these common? Should I ask you to order me not to have sex with any sex demons?"
"Not very common, no. If you wanted me to do that it wouldn't be a terrible idea since I doubt you're likely to want to anyway."

"Probably not, no. Is it ever going to be a really good idea to have sex with a sex demon?"
"For you, no, probably not."
"Vampires have to drink blood--gross, I know--so sometimes they'll summon a succubus or an incubus to--make an exchange, if you will."
"I personally have never done that," Overbite volunteers.

"Oh. Okay, if that's the best reason. Are they pretty easy to tell apart from other people?"
"They have wings, but they can sort of...dematerialize them? I'm not totally sure how it works, but it's totally possible for them to pass as human."

"Then I'm not sure the order would work very selectively unless you told me not to have sex at all, and then I'd have to find you or give someone else mastery over me to get it reversed, down the line when I'm feeling better."
"And at that point we're back to you can let me know if someone propositions you so I can tell them it's not okay. They're not going to mojo you off the street, anyway--in all the cases I've heard of it happening, the victim was lured into a position where no one else would notice the incubus or succubus being supernaturally sexy."
