This is incredible! My love for this can not be textually rendered! ♥!!! \o/

What I think is the most genius about this pastiche is the way that you have cleverly combined the formal language of the original with Ray's slangy speech - and also combined serious imagery and playful humor, which is really much like the show. The particular plays on the original (like malingers/lingers!! grow old/cold!!) are inspired.

This is the most fabulous thing ever and I love it to tiny bits.
