Three options for you. 1.) We test the timelines based on the ideas of people who went backwards and checked into things. You know who you are. Like I said before, we have three tries to check to try and improve the situation. 2.) We just charge straight ahead and hope for the best. 3.) We actually come up with a plan with volunteer basis, split you guys into groups, and proceed from there. As I've mentioned, Mr. Murdock raised a proposition of having volunteers for the Retrospec project to prove themselves to Vanderweele and get him to back off the project. Mr. Togusa changed the contract in the past that Retrospec will go public, more or less, when the first world has reached full completion. Ms...Anna (Anna it's too weird to call you by something proper) has volunteered herself to jump forward to a degree where she's regained her abilities, powers, and strength. So if you see double, don't be alarmed. Here's the thing. No matter what path we take, it's always been the same. The end has always been about stopping Vanderweele's influence over the city and shutting down his power. While there are a lot of ways we can do that, it's always been that ultimate goal to get the city back to what it was. Release people memories. Adjust everything. All that. The pieces of the puzzle finally fell into place to give us a clue of what we're supposed to do here. Under the ocean there's a base in a trench hidden away. The further you go, the less the water appears. It's displaced, but the pressure of the ocean itself might kill you before you get down there unless we loosen the binds. We have two objectives here: destroy the eye that's feeding his defenses in the city, and destroy the base in the ocean to siphon his power out and stop what's been started. Pick a side. Once you know your strengths and weaknesses, we'll have a better sense of how to attack and take him by surprise. Got it? Fixing the city? That's "finishing" its regrowth. And taking away his power means sending memories and energy back to where it belongs. This is going to be the last thing I'll ask of you guys. So...think on that.

*SPOILERS FOR CURSED CHILD!*

[blondferret]

Sooooo.... this is awkward.

I know I was like "hell no" about volunteering to deal with Vanderweele and like...be one of those seed things. But...

I just got a memory of my other self, Draco, going back in time to save his son and to prevent a daughter of an evil wizard from bringing her father back to life and screwing up time for the whole wizarding world.

So... perspective I guess?

So what I'm saying is... I'm willing to help out and volunteer and like put my life on the line.

[Oh my gosh Derek, can you be more awkward???]

[psykick]

HUH. So it DID end up involving that evil wizard.

[blondferret]

Told you it would happen.

So, if you had to choose one of Zee's options, which one? I would say #2 is the worst option.

[psykick]

I'm still not really sure what we need to change with the whole 'testing the timelines' thing, but I'm not that game on #2 either. #3 is still kind of vague, but I'd prefer some sort of plan and organization so we're not all just running around doing things that might contradict each other.

[blondferret]

Right? Zee keeps telling us we have three chances, but... when are we suppose to go? So much speculation, but no decisions are being made. We need to create a dang plan!

[psykick]

My guess is before we go after the giant eye and the underwater base. Though with the whole time travel thing, 'when' is sort of anytime.

[blondferret]

That is the general order I am thinking also. Though concerning time travel and "when", yeah, we need to decide that soon.

[psykick]

I think I'll leave the time travelling to those of us who have something in mind they want to change. I'm more than happy to focus on destroying this underwater base.

[blondferret]

Can you phase through water and thus sort of breath under water?

[psykick]

I can phase through water, yes. But I can't breath under water. Don't ask me how that works, I don't know.

[blondferret]

I feel that kind of defeats the purpose of phasing if you can't breath as you are going through water.

[psykick]

I can pass through things, not turn myself into a fish!

[blondferret]

So when you go through walls you just hold your breath?

[maidofmistakes]

You guys had time travel?

[blondferret]

It was highly regulated by the government, but yes. The wizarding world had devices called Time Turners. I don't know about forward in time, but you could go back in time. Time Turners are like small hour glasses, which depending on how many times you turn it determined how many hour or years you go back in time.

[maidofmistakes]

Whoa. That sounds like it might be really cool, but probably just cause a bunch of problems.

[blondferret]

Well... yeah. Somehow my other self's son got stuck in the past somehow, so he had to go save his son.

[maidofmistakes]

I wonder how many of us had to time travel once. It's starting to look like a lot.

[blondferret]

You mean in our other lives? As far as I know, I'm the only one? Who else has?

[maidofmistakes]

I had to go back in time for a school trip, then we ended up travelling through all different points of an alternate timeline my classmate created when she tried to take a dinosaur egg home and keep it as a pet.

[blondferret]

Oh my gosh your classmates was like this big oaf of a teacher I had who tried to raises a dragon in his wooden hut.

[maidofmistakes]

She was a little weird, but a good person, really. Did you really hate your teachers that bad?

[blondferret]

In his very first class (which consisted on 13 year-olds btw) I was attacked by a hippogriff. About lost my arm. A hippogriff is a very dangerous animal and 13 year-olds with no experience should not be near them. And may I also point out that this oaf did not know how to handle them either.

[maidofmistakes]

Uh... that's a lot. I mean, I guess I can't talk, since we were fighting crime for our school.

[blondferret]

You other life's school had you fighting crime? What kind of school was this?
