Julia, I — [ Too many fractures, too many cracks. His mind feels like it's tearing apart, but Julia is anchoring him through the chaos, the doubts, the questioning of what's actually real anymore. When he feels himself losing his grip, like he might slide off the edge into unknown darkness, Julia steadies him, holds him close.
She's crying, and that edges him more immediately to reality, to finding his way back to himself. His hearts ache at the sight, wanting to soothe, wanting to believe, wanting to feel everything she feels.
When she kisses him, he loses all tension from his limbs, holding onto her in return, kissing her just as deeply and sinking into her. He comes back to her then — that kiss, and the moment she says she needs him to wake up. He reaches out now, stroking her hair back from her eyes, stroking her cheek, touching her in every way that he can. His own eyes glisten with unshed tears, but then he kisses her forehead before pressing close to her again.
It's disorienting, remembering everything — like he can't catch his breath, but he holds her tighter as a thousand years of memories come flooding back all at once and he closes his eyes again. ]

I remember. All of it, Julia. I'm — I'm here.
