*** Well to be fair, many people (including Riley, even before this fanfic) have had dreams that they could fly. And technically this experience was also a dream--just a very vivid one where she knows what's going on.
*** By the way, a lot of reviewers mentioned that they wished they could have an experience like that, which isn't really a surprise. What they don't seem to realize is that lucid dreaming is something people can actually learn to do, and while you won't actually meet your emotions or anything like that (well anything is possible in a dream, so I guess you sort of can, but they wouldn't ''actually'' be your emotions) you can in fact have very vivid experiences where literally anything you can imagine is possible. The catch is it takes a lot of practice, but it should go without saying that for many people the results are certainly worth the effort.

** The communication issues they had in the film seem to be solved as well: nowadays, Sadness notifies Joy when she feels the need to touch a memory to influence it and Joy is quick to acknowledge it and let Sadness operate, as evidenced with the memory of the trip to Pizza Planet. And they don't even have to exchange a word for that.

* Chapter 12, ''Wavering Focus''
** When Riley gets confronted by Tracy at Pizza Planet, Jordan doesn't know what's going on because he doesn't have Intro to Psych with them, but he still stands up for Riley anyway.
*** In the same chapter, we get more details about Jordan's inclusion in Riley's friend circle. He's apparently shy and unsure of himself, but Riley and Ann make him feel welcome.

* Chapter 13, ''Hidden Depths''
** When Riley lands back in the mind world, she tries to smile, but it's forced. But when she and Sadness lock gazes, Sadness knows exactly what Riley really needs now. And so she and the emotions give riley a hug of comfort after her...rough day before. One is reminded of when Sadness was there for Bing Bong, as Riley just let it out with Sadness, and then when she broke away, she was already doing better just like Bing Bong was.

* In general, the interactions between Joy and Sadness in this story. Remember a year ago, Joy could hardly stand Sadness and always tried to keep her from working. And now? Joy lets Sadness go first in describing what they look like, gives her big hugs for great ideas, calls her an "expert" in the mind manuals, and when discussing what to do about their DarkSecret, is clearly trying to be considerate about how to handle it with Sadness's help. It's pretty clear that Sadness and Joy are now the closest among the emotions.

** In a flashback, we discover how Riley and Ann became friends. It turns out that Ann's supposed coolness got exposed when one of her former posse discovered she read comic books, and decided that wasn't cool. Riley stood up for Ann, and they became friends from then. (It also turns out this is what generated a more advanced Friendship Island, making the event doubly important).
