time travel texting.

THE BIG FAT TIME TRAVEL TEXTING MEME.

How does it work?
- You post your top-level as usual.
- People reply, but the catch is, magical shenanigans intervene and poof! You're getting a text from someone you know, but it's 3 years too early or 10 years too late! What spoilers will you learn? Will you accidentally reveal some of your own?
- You can use this to explore forward-dated scenarios or have characters interact before they "met," or at least before one of them knows they met.
- When you reply, notate in the header when your character's tagging from.

youre getting married tomorrow.

did i get the date wrong? i stayed up so late finishing up decorations with dash... no, its definitely tomorrow

[incendiaring]

okay, no

i'd most definitely not forget if we were getting married tomorrow. ten and i, we've only talked about it, in a 'some day' kind of way. not unlike you and i have talked about it. there's been no proposal and definitely no date set.

is someone else getting married, maybe?

[braced]

no, its you...

we made you a banner. with your names on it

[incendiaring]

i wouldn't have forgotten that, baby. something's going on. last i checked, i talked with both of you about commitment, but we didn't go further than that.

[braced]

oh

so you must be... from the past?

[incendiaring]

must be, right? which is really strange, but. i don't know what else would make sense.

but from what you're saying, i'm getting married? and not to the two of you at the same time?

[braced]

not at the same time

but we... we've talked about it. we're going to

[incendiaring]

yeah?

that. i like knowing that, about my future. that i get to have you both, forever.

[braced]

me too. and ten, too. we're all pretty happy about this

[incendiaring]

and hojoon, too? i don't mean that he and i have fixed whatever's currently going on, but. you and him, it's still good, right?

[braced]

yes, its still good. really good. you and him are really close too

[incendiaring]

huh. well that's surprising. not that you're good, but that he and i are close. but, i'm glad. for you, and your sake, but... for us, too.

[braced]

im happy for you the most

youre really good friends. its nice to see

[incendiaring]

ah, baby, you're so good. we're both so lucky to have you.

i'll be glad when we get to that point. it's a relief, actually.

[braced]

yeah? it is? you worry about it?

[incendiaring]

yeah, i do. i worry it hurts you

[braced]

dont worry about me. youre both entitled to feeling what you do!

[incendiaring]

i'll always worry about you. it's part of what i do!
