Time. A weird kind of concept, isn't it? I've been thinking about it a lot lately…this whole "time" thing, the way the map's been laid out, and how this project came into fruition. I've been able to get a read on some stuff, and I've been transcribing notes from the company. Your app should have some new upgrades now thanks to a handful of factors none of which were my own ideas. I did the legwork, but the groundwork was provided. Thanks, you know who you are. We're rerouting for higher security, anonymity and the chance to overlap. Which means…what…? Here's a question for you. Where have you wanted to go more than anywhere in the worlds? A time, a place, anything like that. There's a theory about alternate timelines I might be looking into based on company research. What've we got to lose at this rate? Strip the defenses in the past, unveil the man behind the curtain in the present, secure the future. Someone told me this kind of thing was a lot of power to trust on you guys…but isn't that all we can do now? Trust each other and test the waters. No missions this month. I checked out everything in Respatrum and Bosuma and it seems that the people there are more self-sufficient than I anticipated which was nice. The subway's still up and running though. Coordinates will be incoming in a few days. I'm testing them out myself to make sure they're stabilized. Stay sharp.

As cool as time travel sounds, I'm gonna have to pass

Bit of a buzzkill when you're dead in that other world


Besides, I got my medical practical exam coming up. Goodbye sleep

[usurpers]

When you stop to think about it, we’re all dead in our other worlds anyway.

[jurai]

Look at you, Mr. Philosophical

Granted my time was a little...fast forwarded than everyone else's


Guess that's why I'm wondering why we should all care. We're dead back in those worlds. It's eone

[usurpers]

I wish we didn’t have so much in common.

[dereban]

F

i'm paying my respects to your sleep

[jurai]

Tell me about it

Eren and I are in crunch mode and I think even HE'S feeling the finals burnout

[dereban]

oof
must suck tbh

never had problematic finals myself so can't relate
but hopefully you can make it through

[motiv8]

Not that I'd actually have the guts to go through with it, but I can't help but wonder

at least I know what happened to you that took you out

What if we could go back and avoid it? What if we could save that other you?

I guess it's useless in the end anyway since Eren's right, but...

[Oh Rean. Crow's incredibly flattered by that question, all things considered. So it's almost hard to reply at first...even if he immediately knows the answer.

It might not be the answer Rean wants, but it's the answer Rean needs.]

He told you to keep facing forward, didn't he?

He'd want you to honor that

[And then, after a few seconds.]

I would want you to, too

[motiv8]

[. . .]

Yeah

You're right.

[And normally, he'd end this by saying something about how it was a stupid question and he's sorry, but...

Well, he's checking this just as he's sitting down on the couch. He could just have this conversation in person like a normal fucking person, so he's going to do that.]

[hauntedsavior]

If you go back far enough, you can sleep AND study.

[jurai]

We get jetlagged from just hopping timezones

Imagine ACTUAL time

[hauntedsavior]

Then go back even further to compensate for the magic future tech time machine lag? This really isn't complicated.

Well, we are here so, we all died in the other world.

Worse when you know for a fact that your world has people that can planet hop and use magic to destroy worlds(bonus points, if they actually did pull it off at least once before.)

[jurai]

Point, but I doubt you guys left the stage in Act 1 like I did. So there's no point in going back even then

Sad that I've technically outlived myself already

...

Great, and they could be running around this town for all we know

[flametheif40]

No idea, the closet I got to what might be an "end" was flying above an army and fighting some Dark Djinns(Magical giant dark genies...human sacrifices were needed to make them), I had to completely incinerate them in one blow or else they regenerate.

Well, I would actually say that is great that you outlived yourself! This life must be treating you better than the last, so you could get stronger.

yeah, that's one of the things that keep me up at night actually. Still don't completely understand how they work, they might use economics as a weapon to spread chaos.

[blondferret]

What about if you could meet your other self before he died? Would you want to meet him?

[jurai]

Heh

Good question...I'm not sure if I'd want to. He did a lot of things I'm still atoning for in this life.

[blondferret]

What, you scared his bad habits might rub off on you if you meet him?

[fiddlestick]

Please remember to sleep!
I don't want either of you collapsing or making bad decisions from being sleep deprived.

[He'll respond to the dead part in a bit, but that takes precedence]

[jurai]

I'm trying!

Not that you're one to talk, Mr. Composes-at-3AM

[fiddlestick]

I stand by 3am being a great time to compose.
I got sleep later, so it's fine!

[sleepingknight]

:c

We can both die in this life from finals!

[jurai]

[Don't be too sad, Yuuki. He's living the good life as we speak.]

RIP US, RIGHT?

What's your major?

I think our final project's pretty solid so far, but fingers crossed there's no glitches when we have to present
