D'aww... oh, Neal *hugs him* I love it how Moz is trying to get their new life on the move but Neal's heart just isn't in it, no matter how much he is trying to hide it, the longing for the life that was lost is seeping through everything he does *pets him*

Wonderful start of the second round ♥

Thanks so much ♥

This was a great excuse to rewatch 4x01 and see Neal making his little New York sand sculptures ♥

Awwww!! I second everything K said ^^!! He just can't help wanting what he wants, even when it's not what he used to think he wanted! *huggles Neal and runs back to NY with him* ;-)

This is just wonderfully, brilliantly done. <3
