Oh, oh, this was really spectacular. Really nice. I loved how real the scifi setting felt, anchored in Ray's spot-on POV. Your descriptions were just fantastic, wow. I loved how cleverly you interwove the plot from the series with your AU setting, and loved the way you didn't give too much exposition on either the plot or the setting, just enough for us to settle in for the ride. Ray Vecchio was also particularly nice. Fantastic read. Thank you!
