Remy was fast asleep in his quarters but as a telepathic soul he was still open to sense desires and other emotions from the crew.
His subconscious received a strong desire in a dream state of a fellow crew member and therefore took control and allowed the dream to merge with his mind and create a joint dream. This allowed the caged emotions of Remy to be released and acted out with the desires of the other dreamer.
This in turn happened to be the dream of Lamia Arderne. He had mananged to keep the love he felt for her stored deep in his soul but his subconscious was letting it out to play in this dream realm created by the desires of Arderne. After all a dream is a wish the heart makes when you are fast asleep.
[Insert the post "It's Just A Dream" here.]
Remy acted upon the directions from the dream. Thus in this dream Mia and Remy made passionate love and acted out their unbridled carnal desire upon one another. Then as the dream waned, Remy had the desire to perform a song,
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight
I keep lookin' for somethin' I can't get
Broken hearts lie all around me
And I don't see an easy way to get out of this
Her diary, it sits by the bedside table
The curtains are closed, the cats in the cradle
Who would've thought that a boy like me could come to this
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been some kind of kiss
I should've walked away
I should've walked away
Is there any just cause for feelin' like this?
On the surface, I'm a name on a list
I try to be discreet, but then blow it again
I've lost and found, it's my final mistake
She's loving by proxy, no give and all take
'Cause I've been thrilled to fantasy one too many times
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been some kind of kiss
I should've walked away
I should've walked away
It was a long hot night
She made it easy, she made it feel right
But now it's over, the moment has gone
I followed my hands not my head, I know I was wrong
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight
I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been some kind of kiss
I should've walked away
I should've walked away
Then Remy's mind allowed the caged desires he held for Mia to be contained once more and this would allow him to carry on with the duties he had as the executive officer and a crew member on the Tomcat.
The dream shifted to him sitting alone in a beach bungalow on Risa and he started to sing another song:
I wanted your love but look what it's done to me
All my dreams have come to nothing
Who would have believed?
All the laughter that we shared would be a memory
I cannot count the tears you've cost me
If I could have seen
And do you ever think of me
And how we used to be?
Oh I know you're somewhere else right now
And loving someone else no doubt
Well I'm one for sorrow
And it too too bad
Are you breaking someone else's heart?
Cause your taking my love where you are
Well I'm one for sorrow
Ain't it too too bad about us
I wanted your love, but I got uncertainty
I tried so hard to understand you
All the good it did me
Now the places that we knew remind me of how we were
Everything is just the same
But all I feel is hurt
And do you ever think of me
And how we used to be?
Remington would sleep the rest of the night in peace and wake up the next morning relaxed and full of life knowing he dreamt a wonderful experience but not knowing the link between him and Mia was anything more than a dream.
