[windeity]

why?
what's going on?

[Besides a nightmare, obviously.]

[parodeity]

[ hahaha IF ONLY ]

i broke my time travel ban

[windeity]

...oh.
what.
ok start over.
what happened?

[parodeity]

so i was going to help tel garden
only like
waiting sounded boring so i was supposed to go back in time to plant it
so wed have like
potatoes that taste like potatoes
so we could have french fries
potato chips
potato based products in general
you know

[windeity]

right...how far back did you go?

[parodeity]

it didnt
i didnt quite
look
i think i need to try it again

[windeity]

why.
you are still not explaining what happened.

[parodeity]

its easier if i show you

[ is it really ]

[windeity]

so what you're saying is you want to try again.
and you want me to come with.

[parodeity]

im saying i wont try again if you say no
i dont know if i can "bring" someone
i dont know if it was a one off
i didnt experiment with that after
i just moved the time on the plants instead and took myself back here

[windeity]

you said show so i was just guessing.
you still aren't telling me what happened exactly that got messed up.
so i cannot really say yes or no to trying again.
but that means if we look at the plants it maybe should have worked.
right?

[parodeity]

ok let me try this again
hey john i need to see you alive right now
so can you stop being a stubborn little shit and accept my flimsy excuses
also dont you dare time travel

[windeity]

i don't even know how to time travel!
i mean not really.
but yeah.
got it.
you're still in the same house right?

[parodeity]

you know what i mean you pedantic asshole

[ friendship... ]

it probably qualifies and it dangerous anyway
so two reasons not to risk it

im in the same place

[windeity]

those are definitely good reasons.
ok. i will be there in ten minutes.
you can time it.

[parodeity]

see you in ten






thanks

[windeity]

[No answer because these laptops are shit.

But almost exactly 10 minutes later there's a knock.]

[parodeity]

[ there's no response but someone throws a sort of pathetic pillow off the roof aimed for the front door. ]

[windeity]

[He squints up at the roof before he grabs the pillow and flies upward toward the roof. He doesn't even have to land before he speaks.]

Does your laptop work up here?

[parodeity]

It's part of the house. [ so. if he sits.........in the right place it does............

he's staring at john and his hand twitches but dave does not actually move from where he is sprawled on his back. ]

[windeity]

Oh. [...yeah, okay. He's not sure how to feel about that but he does approach before taking a seat on the rooftop next to him while holding the pillow in his lap.] Do you want to keep staying up here?

[parodeity]

Uh, dunno? If you want. Either way. I just wanted...air.

[ helpful. ]

I saw you die.

[ maybe more helpful but also probably what. ]

[windeity]

[Oh.]

...nightmare? [Guessing here.]

[parodeity]

[ that is a terrible guess and his expression twists because he hopes? maybe? ]

Time travel. [ dave corrects. ] Or what - should have been. I saw a lot of people die. It wasn't...I couldn't quite...I don't know what happened and I think I need to try it again?

[windeity]

...I wasn't sure you were serious about time travel being connected to that. [There's an uncertain look.] Why do you need to try again if that is a thing you're seeing?
