Summary:

When Khun wakes up from his multi-day nightmare, Mama is sitting next to his bed.  She is wearing her white floral Thakoon day dress, but her manicure doesn't match the little roses and her hair is still plaited back, like she wears it to sleep and to sleep only.  In Tankhun’s dehydrated hallucinations, she was always perfectly coiffed and wearing her vintage burgundy silk midi dress, Khun’s favourite because of the way the silk is shot through with gold thread, and it never occurred to him she’d skip a manicure. Mama’s here, and she’s real this time.  Tankhun is safe now.  He pushes himself up on his elbow, still shaky and achy, and reaches for her. - Tankhun, before and after canon, decides what his limits are.
