WHAT Last chance for timefuck except not really
WHERE Wherever
WHEN Day 127, whenever

[So, you've been messing around with time.]

[Okay, we've actually been doing that, yeah. Quiet Mounds is still a bit unpredictable, with the seasons and the clocks a little haywire. Today, there's another little pulse of magic. Maybe some of you find yourself back to normal? Or maybe more people are suddenly the wrong age or timeline. Maybe Deadpool shows up. I don't know.]

[Last post for deage/age-up/etc event, though obviously you can continue to backthread or play at your leisure after this.]

[rumbles a laugh] I'd hoped it wouldn't be.

[shortcircuits]

You know me.

[rideordie]

I think I do. [brushes knuckles against his cheek, through all that hair] Yeah.

[shortcircuits]

[leans into that touch, expression positively blissful]

[rideordie]

[now that's a good sight. Brushes hair away from his face]

[shortcircuits]

[smiles up at him]

Mm . . .

[rideordie]

Mmm.

[agreeing]

[shortcircuits]

[sighs . . .]

How long do you think you'll be like this?

[rideordie]

Am I supposed to be able to tell?

[shortcircuits]

No. I just mean . . . to talk about the possibility.

[rideordie]

Mmh... I could change at any time. Or not at all, but I don't think that one's likely...

[shortcircuits]

I don't . . . I don't mind either way. I just want you to know that.

[rideordie]

Is that so...?

[shortcircuits]

[tch!]

No matter what version of ourselves . . .

[rideordie]

We've decided, yeah?

[shortcircuits]

Decided?

[rideordie]

Hmm, to see each other's futures?

[shortcircuits]

[his breath hitches]

It gets kind of messy when you're dealing with the past, too.

[rideordie]

Mmm, it's hard for me to think of it as really either past or future. Certainly, a 'past self', but... hmm...

[shortcircuits]

Right. Exactly. Fuck.

[rideordie]

Well, how do you feel about it?

[humor in his voice]

[shortcircuits]

. . . being around a younger Alexander makes me happy too. It's different. But . . .

[rideordie]

Hm, but?

[shortcircuits]

Different but fine. Still valuable. Still . . . time we can spend together, making each other better.

[rideordie]

I feel that way, when I'm that one. Well, I'm eager for it.
