More Dream Box thinking. 

I imagined the possibility of something like a dream box being a reflection of the person who opens it.  So if you open a box, it contains a copy of your mind. It knows and remembers what you do. And no one can use it to look into your mind, because when they open it, they see their own mind. 

So you have to open the box and invite someone to look inside. 

While the other box I drew was more mutual sharing just by being in contact with this, this one is a more deliberate action of sharing.

A parasitic louse that crawls into your mouth, vampirizes your tongue, then clamps itself onto the withered stub so it can ride around inside you and drink your mucus for the rest of your mutual lives? Why, yes. It’s called symbiosis and it’s beautiful.

What? Relax. It’s going to be fine. This isn’t going to hurt. You won’t even miss your tongue—once the louse is latched onto the muscle, you can simply use its body as a tongue instead. These are exactly the kind of details that evolution has worked out for you, because evolution loves you and it wants you to be all right.

“[on wrapping the DS9 series finale] I remember the end. We were all gathered together, they had shot the final shot, and the AD came up and she just started saying, ‘Okay, it’s time to say goodbye and goodnight to Nana Visitor.’ And everybody applauds. And that’s when it hit me, it was like, ‘Oh my God, this is it, we’re saying goodbye.’ ‘Goodbye and goodnight to Alexander Siddig. Goodbye and goodnight to Michael Dorn. Goodbye and goodnight to,’ and at every one, every single one, as she goes through the entire cast, there’s a surge of emotions that’s building, and we’re all in this confined place… and the applause is getting louder, and the cheers are getting louder, and we’re going through the cast one by one to Avery. ‘Goodbye and goodnight to Avery Brooks.’ And the place just explodes, and we’re hugging each other and crying, and I’m crying and I’m going up to cast members and I can’t even talk… there’s tears rolling down my face, and I turned and I looked, and I waved to the writers. I just walked out. I walked off the soundstage and got in my car, and that was it, that was it, that was the moment it was all over… it was such a moment, it just hit me so hard… how much I loved those people, how much I loved those characters, how much I loved Deep Space Nine.”

— Producer Ronald D. Moore, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

No, there’s patronization in that smile. You can practically hear “Fix You” by Coldplay playing in his head.
