Thank you, anon! I love all the details in Walt's dream, especially (perhaps oddly) the way Walt remembers how he smells, because that sense is so tightly tied to memory. And the way Walt can only get untangled with Ray's help. Of course. Beautifully done!

I'm so happy you liked it! This started out one way in my head and then turned out completely differently when I wrote it down. :-) I loved the idea of Walt not being able to sort himself out without Ray around, albeit in a different way than I think most people would imagine.

This is so sweet. I was anticipating an angsty recurring dream about Walt at the roadblock, same as he was, but this is a refreshing, healthier alternative. HAPPY FEELINGS. SO MANY HAPPY FEELINGS.

I LOVE THAT YOU HAD HAPPY FEELINGS ABOUT IT. I HAD HAPPY FEELINGS TOO. :-D

I think we've all had those kinds of wacky random dreams that make no sense if you think about them logically, but might fit into whatever emotional situation we're in at the time. And of course Walt can't get sorted out without Ray!

I'm glad you enjoyed it, and thank you for commenting!

Thank you so much for your lovely words!

Oh, this is lovely! And I was so so glad that Walt woke up and still had his Ray-Ray. :)

Of course he did. This had to have a happy ending, you see. ;-) Thank you so much for reading!
