Knight of Time

[has-a-blog.livejournal.com]

[Dave went ahead and spent the anemoi he got from the turtle king, but didn't share what he remembered. Whatever it was, it's left him awfully busy, as you swear you're seeing Dave everywhere. It seems like there would have to be at least four or five of him around to do everything he's doing. Shirou, Rin and Vriska may actually remember seeing a second Dave briefly appear to cover the main Dave while they were out anemoi hunting.

Regardless, Dave just ran into you and is looking confused.]

Shit, is this the first time I've run into you today?

With your -- did you hit your head since the last time I saw you or something?! You're talking crazy!

Did you ever get a new toy when you were a kid, and suddenly you were all "holy shit dude I HAVE to play with this thing and the hell with the consequences!"?

What, seriously? So you could, like, go back in time and meet your own grandparents or something?

[has-a-blog.livejournal.com]

Well sure, if I knew who my grandparents were. And if I didn't mind creating a splinter time line in which everyone died.

[thekoistiger.livejournal.com]

What?! How the hell would THAT happen?!

[has-a-blog.livejournal.com]

Because time travel is dangerous. If you create offshoots from this timeline, terrible things start happening. Which is why it's vitally important that I make sure I account for any past versions of myself that people ran into.

*And now he's... sort of looking at you blankly.*

Is this one of those things I'd be better off not knowing?

[has-a-blog.livejournal.com]

Yeah probably.

[thekoistiger.livejournal.com]

*sigh* Geez, take all the fun out of time travel why don't you...

Okay, so are you going to be zipping around like this a lot? I just want to know if I'm going to have to expect greetings like this more often.

[has-a-blog.livejournal.com]

Now that I've had my fun I'm probably going to cool it before dead Daves start piling up.

Because no one wants that.

[thekoistiger.livejournal.com]

...yeah, I'd imagine that'd make things kinda messy, yeah.

*Just... seriously not going to attempt to think about this. At all.*
