[This is one of those rare times where Walter appreciate being the shorter person in a hug. His eyes close - and he quickly blinks them open again, because instead of the usual dark-behind-eyelids he catches a glimpse of webspace.

Okay.

[First things first:]

Thank you, Ben.

[Walter does not move out of the hug.]
