[anon, locked from Lina and Gourry]

How many people here have run into other members who are from their world, but in the past? I know I'm not the only one it's happened to.

Has anyone ever felt the urge to tell them about what's going to happen? Or to try to get to their timeline and prevent something that happened there?

((OOC: Feel free to call him out should he decide to fail at anon, since I've decided to be nice for once and let this actually lock :P))

Well...since I've just arrived I can't say that I have any personal experience to share with you.

Are you thinking about returning to your past?

... Maybe. Or at least trying to change it.

Fate carries a heavy burden...but you know, I don't think there are any rules that say you can't give her a hand sometimes! If changing the past means something to you, then you should go for it!

You really think so? Everyone else seems to think it would do more harm than good.

[identity profile] mercurialbreeze.livejournal.com 2010-07-23 03:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Well I guess it could, but the sword cuts both ways doesn't it? Changing the future could just as well be a good thing, forewarned is forearmed, and all that good stuff! As long as it's something you want to do.

It's a pretty difficult decision to make. How much time do you have to think it over?

[identity profile] unluckychimera.livejournal.com 2010-07-23 10:37 pm (UTC)(link)
A few days, probably. Though knowing the way things seem to be dilated between worlds, it could be longer.

I see why you're juggling this with the community...that's not a lot of time. From what you said most people are advising you against it and maybe they have experience. This probably isn't much help, but whatever you think is right you should do without hesitating.

I don't know what's right, though. That's the problem...

[identity profile] mercurialbreeze.livejournal.com 2010-07-24 12:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmmmm...what's right...that's always a tough one. I guess you've already taken a look at all of the possible outcomes...what's the best thing that could happen?

[identity profile] unluckychimera.livejournal.com 2010-07-24 05:48 pm (UTC)(link)
The best thing would be quite a lot of people - including a couple close friends of mine and an entire city but for one girl - wouldn't die, the world wouldn't risk being destroyed - at least three times - and possibly a very evil man would be exposed for what he is.

Well...trying to prevent the destruction of a city and the death of your friends sounds right to me! And what would be the downside...changing history?

[identity profile] unluckychimera.livejournal.com 2010-07-24 11:13 pm (UTC)(link)
In theory, things could go even worse. Despite everything, our world's survived, and several powerful forces for evil have been eliminated.

And in theory things could turn out even better. It certainly sounds like the benefits could outweigh the risks.
