I know, I know... As my niece says it: THE *FEELS* of the whole thing just just sorta mind-blowing, really, b/c there's just so *much* to feel about!!
To me, that whole "do it properly this time" thing is what is a large part of the reason why he so *needs* Peter and El in his life. They let him see, close-up and personal (so to speak) what it's like to be in a *real* family where people take care of each other, etc. He didn't get to grow up in one, really, but that doesn't mean he can't be an adopted sibling, if nothing else ;-) (Since Peter insists he's more like a big brother ;-))
I realllly hope you get to write some soon. That's selfish on my part, but it's also just a way to process things, too. I wrote up a scene between Peter and Neal (post-finale) that just was eating my brain. It's not anything close to complete, but I just had to get it "outside" instead of "only" inside my brain. I'm hoping maybe my brain will be able to take a break after I finish this school stuff this week and just unwind with it all for a while!
