[This would be where Quentin was stuck, looping, and where Eliot was forced to see. He'd wanted to know what happened, while he was busy recovering when he should have been here, with Q. This is some fucked up monkey paw of wish fulfillment.
Eliot arrives just in time to see the brutal flash of light that rips Quentin apart, and he cries out, watching helplessly. And then it just resets, Alice screaming as Penny pulls her and the same cycle, starting again. The exact same scene, Eliot about to lose Quentin, Quentin about to lose everything. He knows this is a dream, but that doesn't make it any easier to watch.
It's probably fruitless, because it usually is in dreams like this, but Eliot flings himself toward Quentin, between him and the light rushing for him.
As soon as he does, it all stops - everything freezes. Eliot's breath caught and he closed his hands around each of Quentin's biceps, voice urgent when he spoke.]
Q? Quentin, can you wake up for me? C'mon, baby, let's not do this part again.
