retrospec | (no subject)

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.

I mean, take out the evil wizards and it's not that bad. There's Quidditch (sport played on flying broomsticks). There's even a wizarding government. Which is headed by the smartest girl that he knew in school, so there is hope. Albeit she is married to an idiot. But it's not like I'm asking for a perfect world or anything.

I'm not entirely sure what else is going to be asked of whoever ends up being chosen as the anchor point. But, I know there could be a risk. Not a risk to that world you're seeing.

I'm trying real hard to make sure that no one has to make a choice. Between themselves or the world that they're seeing. Zee was hinting that I might not be the best candidate for this, though, because I want to stay here, but also make sure Togusa's world gets completed.

I can't promise that you wouldn't have to make that choice, if you do this.

A choice? Are you saying that I might get stuck there?

There's the problem. I don't entirely know. Zee has grabbed a page from Retrospec's playbook and started being frustratingly vague. So whoever does offer themselves up for this? I just want them to be mentally prepared for any possibility.

I don't think you'll be in too much harm, honestly. I'm just not a good choice because I am the one trying to go against what Retrospec initially intended.

OK, Zee really needs to stop being so vague. Time travel is a tricky business. If he knows something he should tell us! Especially when he is suggesting we risk our lives.
