Right! And in Out Here, the walking away is actually a very marked scene, because for Fraser, the problem was that he could have seriously done it, could have run away from all that emotion and angst and drama. Because it's so much easier for him to be alone. I mean, he certainly clings to his relationships, but doing that has brought him nothing but grief, and he's never been sure he wants to compromise his independence (be real partners with Ray, trust Ray implicitly, give up his lone-wolfness). But for Ray, for Ray sticking close has never been the problem. Ray is CLING WRAP, baby, and running away is the last thing he wants to do.
