Summary: Harlan’s got a thick skull.
The Catalina standing in front of him was a far older, more mature woman than the one Harlan had lost when she’d been blasted into another dimension. “Finally!” she cried out, throwing her hands up in the air and making a face that Harlan was very familiar with. He’d been exposed to it on a nearly hourly basis for years. “I didn’t think I’d ever get through your thick skull!”
“How can you be here?” Harlan demanded to know. “Wait. This is a dream, isn’t it.”
“Mental temporal shift while you’re unconscious,” Catalina corrected. “The you in the time I’m in told me that I needed to get in touch with you in your time to tell you what to- are you even listening to me?”
“Any second now,” Harlan murmured, “I’m gonna wake up. Or the dancing Radus are gonna come high stepping through that door.” He gestured vaguely towards the door that suddenly appeared. Catalina stared at him as if he had grown a second head.
“Dancing R- I don’t want to know. I just want you to listen!”
