I Could Walk Through That Tunnel Of Light And Meet The Rest Of You There

[The day was treacherously cold...]The day was treacherously cold, the sky barren and bleak and slate-coloured, the wind bursting forth in sharp coughs. Howard picked at the loose stitching at the hem of his trousers, winding it slowly around his finger and then unwinding it again. His fingers were numb, his hair falling into his eyes.

Oh. Oh. OH. I... I'm having a lot of thoughts and suspicions right now, and you might have broken my brain in a very good way! I'm trying not to think overmuch about the fact that this might easily explain the contradictory, constantly shifting backstories from canon, but it's hard not to wonder! Especially given the absence of the watch from Vince's wrist (!!!), and the fact that he seems to have genuinely have as little concept of their history as Howard does (which Naboo did warn him might happen)... and, you know, the fact that Vince SAID that if Howard wants to stay, then he's determined to stay with him, which is a sentiment that is at once heartbreaking and beautiful--and scary, because are they really lost in there for good?!? (Have they always been lost in there? Is this them coming full-circle? So many possibilities ( ... )

Just caught up on this story! Best early Christmas present the internet has given me.
I'm rubbish at leaving decent comments but I really want to know what happens next. It's exciting.
Ta-ra.

Oh Christy. It's everything I never wanted to happen and yet I'm happy they're together again and equally oblivious.

What a brilliant chapter - I'm finally catching up with my Christmas reading... Oh, Vince. I'm so worried about him. He seems almost to have given up and accepted that he might be stuck here forever because that's where Howard is. You can't leave them like this, you just can't... *rushes off to next chapter*
