Throw some ideas at me

But I love happy endings.. Does that mean Felix is screwed?

Depends on how you define "screwed." lol

I can see the use of the guy going into elaborate "dreams" that spark with say, a sudden flickering of the light, and then waking up not knowing whether it truly happened or not. It feels too real not to have this nagging fear and anxiety, but the room remains just as it has always been. Wait, I think I was just describing surrealism.

Sounds very similar to something I planned to do. Thus far, I've established the light fixture is a lamp passed down to him from his dead mother. Lives alone in a terrible part of town. Currently setting the mood and building the character/setting. Opening paragraph involved a near-dead puppy.

Always love to hear from you. Back to work.
