[goddammit, suga.]

Suga was...doing as he usually does. Discussing plans for the future, wanting all of us to see one another again after all of this is over. It was at a bad time for me.

[He doesn't regret having said it, exactly, but then he doesn't regret much.]

Raven also seemed... [how the fuck do you even word this] ...rather bothered, to put it lightly, about the notion that we would all return to the varying times that we came from. He discussed it with me a few times; I told him that since I'm the furthest out, I would certainly remember either of you behaving strangely if we all returned to the same timeline, and since I remember nothing of the sort I found it highly unlikely that we all come from the same world.

[Are you following him so far, because he hates this divergent timeline bullshit, it gives him a fucking headache.]

That's how I believe this works, yes.

[...So do you want to hear the crazy thought, because you're about to hear the crazy thought.]

The cleanest way I can think of to resolve all of this with all three of us having intact memories would be to return to the earliest possible divergence - that is, where Raven came from - and ensure that things run favorably from there.

Granted, that might create some sort of unfortunate incident where there are multiple iterations of the same person present in that timeline, but in that case eliminating the other should prove simple enough.

I was wondering if you would find that acceptable.

[...This is why we need Raven here. He keeps us from plotting things like this.]

Again, this assumes that any number of unpredictable things happen to fall in our favor, and we don't all die horribly tomorrow.

But it's a solution I'm willing to consider for the issue at hand once we've resolved all of that.

I admit that I don't know. Though obviously the understanding we've come to recently here will continue to stand, regardless.

[It would be, but let's be honest, upon first arriving here would you have put something like that past him...]

I doubt any of the others would appreciate me having the audacity to discuss murder in front of them. But this is the most thorough way I can think of to resolve everything on our end and not have as many unfortunate ramifications.

Something of a morbid way of looking at it, really. But I don't entirely disagree with you, either.

[...]

This won't solve all of our problems. But it will be a decent start, if nothing else.

I don't think enough of my plans have been put into action yet that they can't be stopped; I imagine I'm going to confuse a few people, but it shouldn't be too terrible of an upheaval.

...I admit I'm wondering how Raven would take this.

[personal profile] ideismo 2021-07-09 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, good. We're likewise in agreement on that.
ideismo: (05. My purpose is set; my will defined)

[personal profile] ideismo 2021-07-09 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
Of course.

[Well, now that that's out of the way.]

I'm willing to live with the plan not being terribly sane otherwise. Apparently not many of my plans are.
