>>18062057
Let's go try to talk to Ursula once she breaks off from Erica and Past-Susan in the hallway before class. We'll talk to her, maybe try to get her prepared for the video in a way that won't cause a paradox but at least won't cause her too much stress. Something like that.

>>18062057
Go to our room and take a nap till just before lunch.

We've had a full day already and will need our energy come nighttime with Erica.

>>18062083

this.

>>18062079
Yeah, let's try to do something interesting with our new gift of time shenanigans at the very least.

>>18062079
still say talking to Ursula at any point today during the duplicate timeline is dumb.

Not least cause it could interfere with our original timeline causing paradox

>>18062079
Agreed. Subtle and cool.

>>18062079
Let's not. We can deal with that later.
>>18062083
Past-Us is still there, serving Erica and Ursula breakfast in bed.

I suggest camping out in R&D or the Library until morning classes, THEN getting some naptime.

First, See if we can talk to Mike, like office hours before the classes start.

Get permission to go home and grab a few things, or at least set up that in the future.

Also, tell him not to talk to us about this conversation until tomorrow, and not to freak out if he sees two or three of us running around.

Explain nothing.

>>18062113
>>18062115

Quick nap after we talk to Mike? Plan the rest of the day from there?

>>18062079
I liked this in the last thread and I still like it now. I really want Susan to use to "spoilers!" redirect.

>>18062057
There was so much arguing in the last thread, I would really rather you just pick whichever idea we had that you think is coolest. Otherwise, this is about to turn into another massive argument thread. Trust me.

>>18062126
Fine with that course of action.

>>18062127
Heh, yeah, I would love to see him do that.

>>18062127
>>18062079

We shouldn't tell her much, see that she's doing ok and all that.

Then apologize for the inevitable awkward later and vaguely mention time-travel in passing.

Make it look like you're doing something really important and secretive, and then go take a nap.

Though it doesn't matter what else we do, we still need to make sure we go to town and buy massage oil for tonight with Erica.

>>18062057
We chill till the coast should be clear, head back to our room, and spend the morning resting. We DO NOT seek out Ursula, but if we run into her, we apologize for what's going to happen, and ask her to not say we ran into each other while we were supposed to be in class.

>>18062153
Agreed. Since we're bound to run into her anyway on the way back to our room after Erica and Past-Susan and Ursula leave, we'll have to talk to her in the hallway regardless. Nap is a good idea, though.

Safe bet for some rest would be this morning, and the afternoon classes.

Lunch time will be hard with our classmates running around. ERICA and ursula most dangerous.

After classes we must avoid running into ourselves again. so we have to stay clear of the library, grounds and the medical wing until were sure our PAST SELF is in the box wiht the doctor.


I suggest 2 things.
Try and find ursula this morning.
Talk to her about the whole 'liking us' part.
DONT SAY ANYTHING about the tape. its a predestined event.

We can then use the afternoon to hide in our room.

OR we can do the opposite, hide this morning. [library?] then find ursula right after our elevator encounter with her in the afternoon

Alright, let's outline this:

-Talk to Mike.
-See if we can talk to Ursula before the lunch fiasco.
-Nap.

And we'll go from there. Let's keep it moving.

>>18062160
This sounds about right.

>>18062159
This sounds great also.

>>18062153
Yeah, if we're where I think we are, we'll definitely run into Urusla on the way back to our room if we want to avoid running into ourselves. Let's keep it cool and vague, and only try to brace her for what's to come a little.

Still saying no to actively seeking Ursula out, doing that is like juggling, tossing a ball into the mix, and then tossing another one before seeing if you can catch the first.

Goal #1 is stay the fuck away from elevators.

Goal #2 is don't confuse anyone too much or fuck with causation.

I think we should talk to Ursula immediately after the elevator scene; wait around the corner in R&D for her.
We can do this in addition to the forewarning bit.

>>18062189
I don't think that we can avoid her if we're also avoiding our past self. Our path will inevitably cross with hers at least once.

>>18062159

Buy enough for two, 'accidentally'.

Claim we actually had no idea how much oil it would take, so we just grabbed a bit more to be safe.

The potential for shenanigans is high with the extra oil, so I'm just going to set the loaded gun there and see what happens.

>>18062171
This sounds good.
Gotta get some points from Ursula.

And if we can do that without fucking up the timeline too much, then lets go for it.

>>18062204
Oh man she'll jump like no other.

Then we explain it as weird time shit and share some laffs

>>18062212
hell, we can just say we might like doing it from time to time, so bought extra so it'd take longer before we had to take another trip to buy it.

>>18062213
Agreed. Our temporal paths will have to intersect at least once, so let's give her JUST enough information, and that's ALL.

>>18062212
You would be surprised just how little you actually need.

Any decently sized bottle probably holds enough for a dozen or more massages.

>>18062190

>Don't confuse anyone too much.

But SHENANIGANS!

>>18062174
>>18062153
>>18062115

Proposed course of action:

-Speak to Mike before class.
-Avoid Paradox, maybe talk to Ursula.
-Nap while morning classes are on.

We go from there.

Sound good for a base?

>>18062208
Why? she'll be in R&D and we don't leave the classroom till evening, we just go to our room, then to town then back to our room after we left for our alchemy teacher.

Bam, dodged till after our interaction with Ursula was done for our duplicate.

For anyone looking at the archive, yesterday took exactly two threads.

>>18062257
Because the TARDIS is down the same way as R&D, we have to wait for past-Susan to leave the room, which means Ursula will be mobile and headed our way.

>>18062230
She'll be going down an elevator, we'll be going up, they won't necessarily cross, the only chance of them crossing would be at the bottom or the top of the elevator and those are the periods of time you spend the least at.

>>18062228
>>18062230
DONT give her any information.
If she knows about the tape before hand she will not react as she did at lunch, and if she doesnt react as she did, then erica will NOT barge in on us with mike.
Who knows what ripples that will put in motion.

If we do meet Ursula some time before lunch, try and confirm her interest in us. NOTHING MORE.

iif she is interested and things go from there, then said conversation will be nothing more than a small setup for the lunch tape scene AND the elevator scene.
Cementing the past, while giving us a shot at a future.

PREDESTINATION. DONT GOOF IT.

>>18062272
It is a big place yo.

>>18062280

We could always use Bunny Mode to sprint past them in a blur, right?

>>18062237

>You would be surprised just how little you actually need.

Oh god. So if we bought multiple bottles, we have a hilarious oversupply?

Guess what we're doing?

>>18062251

Sounds good for the plan.

Gives us a solid base, and we can plan for whatever else better in the moment.

Guys remember we have 60-second timestop now.
If we just stick a knife or spoon around corners for a quick looksee, we should be able dodge just about anyone.

>>18062287
Sounds like a good application for the Stop Watch.

okay. im sure everyone will agree with me on this one.
WE FUCK WITH SHIROU.
WE HAVE TIME STOP.
WE CAN DO THIS.

And no one will believe shirou.

>>18062288
>"Why did you buy so much?"

"Well they were on sale and I have all this gold and as a butler it seems like something under my purview and your sister and -"

>>18062295
>>18062287

Yeah, if things look too bad, we can time-stop and get out.

>>18062295
Seriously we should easily be able to do a 50 meter dash in 15 seconds.

That's 1/4th of our time stop before recharging and we're out of any sort of danger.

>>18062312
>your sister and - "
>*punch*

>>18062304
I like the way you think. We have an airtight alibi and a whole day to burn.

>>18062304

Stick him in a tree.

>>18062304
Goddamnit, we have more important things to do, like twincest.

>>18062345
Agreed.

>50 posts
>One from OP

Wow it is like I am really in SWQ

>>18062352
We're never going to agree. LG is just going to have to pick for us.

>>18062312

>"Why did you buy so much?"

"I have no idea! The Arabian guy selling them was amazingly convincing, I'm just glad I didn't end up with a bunch of Camels or something."

>>18062304

Tempting, but I think e need to learn more about the power before we start doing shit like that.

I'd hate to waste it on trolling and then fuck up something important.

>>18062363
Yup.

>>18062363
We agreed on nap and massage oil, it's the other stuff we're arguing about

Remember that Gear, nap for energy and massage oil for tonight!

>>18062304
>FUCK WITH SHIROU
I agree, but only AFTER past-Susan is in the TARDIS.
>"He was here, with me, the entire time."
>"Never let him out of my sight, not even for a second."
>"I have better things to do at this hour."
>>18062352
Well, OP did go get lunch.

>>18062363
We seem to have the baseline down.

Talk to Mike, get massage oil, talk to Ursula if we see her but be careful and don't say too much, nap, fuck with Shirou if we get the chance.

Order isn't a huge deal.

>>18062382
No, we didn't. I'm still saying we should run into Ursula. There has been no agreement.

>>18062388
No, I think the massage oil idea is stupid. Talking to Mike too.

>>18062400
>>18062396
>>18062388
>>18062383
>>18062382
It's the end of last thread all over again. LG, just pick for us.

>>18062410
Looks like one guy saying every idea but his is garbage to me.

>>18062396
That appears to be outside of the two items I mentioned as agreed on meaning it is still up in the air. So no anon, you are the retard.

>>18062419
As in run into her, then go to bed. No massage oil, no Mike. By our perspective, it's night time now. We need sleep.

>>18062388
I don't think we should talk to Mike until after past-Susan is already done with regular classes for the day. Less chance of even Mike slipping up.

I'm okay with the massage oil.

I think we should avoid Ursula until AFTER past-Susan meets her in the elevator, instead of before, like some people want.

>>18062400

You are the only one.

>>18062396

The Nap and Oil would both come after the Theoretical Ursula encounter.

And like he said, THOSE are the bits we agreed to, with other stuff up in the air.

I'm all for talking to Ursula in the morning, IF we run into her, but not actively seeking her out

>>18062436
There are at least two people other than me disagreeing with the massage oil thing by my count, bro.

>>18062429

Mike would be eaiest to do now, and Both Ursula and Mike are on the ay to the Dorms.

The Oil was post-nap territory.

>BAWWWWW WE'RE ARGUING AGAIN
Oh for fuck's sake. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF WE HAVE CONSENSUS OR NOT OP WILL JUST PICK WHATEVER'S FUNNY/AWESOME/HUE

>>18062429
We have all day bro. We can sleep a solid 8 hours in there and still have time for everything else.

>>18062454
Seriously. I just want to get on with this so that the bickering will end. It's fucking annoying.

>little concensus
>picking one of the safer routes for now.

Since you have the whole day ahead of you, you decide to tie up some ends you might have left loose.

First you head to Mike's office.
You take note of the time as you walk through a hallway in Admin, [08:07]

'Okay, I think i just about woke up by now.' You take out Kraus.
"Hey man, is there anyway you can keep track of my past self?" you ask him.
"FUCKER, THE MOMENT WE STEPPED OUT O THAT BLUE BOX, MY HEAD HAS BEEN RINGING LIKE FUCK. IM EXISTING IN TWO PLACES AT ONCE, IM A FUCKING NUERAL DEVICE. FUCKING FEEDBACK IS DRIVING ME NUTS. I WONT EVEN TRY REACHING OUT TO THE OTHER YOU, I DONT WANT TO FRY YOUR BRAIN, NOR DO I WANT TO FRY MY FUCKING CIRCUITS." you put Kraus back in your pocket without another word.

You arrive at Mike's office, the door is wide open.
He's wearing sunglasses and has a cup in his left arm.
"-EEEEAAAH" you hear him say.
"Err, Good morning Susan," he says as he hastily takes off the sunglasses "What brings you to my office this morning?"

>>18062400
>>18062429
>>18062446
I have now quoted every post that dislikes the massage oil idea and two of them look like a samefag.

The only other posts that mention it at all were in support.

>>18062470
"Oh, I just time traveled back here from this evening. I'll be having lunch with you this afternoon. When Erica comes in, though, make yourself scarce. Trust me, you don't want to be here for that. She is going to be MAD."

>>18062470
Shenanigans, just don't mention me to myself.

So, do we get one of those cool power comparison graphs at any point?

>>18062488
PARADOX.

>>18062494
Not really?

>>18062494
Actually, that should perfectly avoid any paradox by making sure things happen as they happened.

>>18062494
Actually that looks like it'll create the exact situation were had at lunch.

>>18062470
Shenanigans and whatnot. No really just wanted to warn you, time travelly shit, I'm seeing the doctor later, or I just saw him. I'll have lunch with you later, make yourself scarce when Erica pops in. Also I was wondering what I should do if I wanted to improve at CQC, if you being an expert at that had any pointers, lessons or nuggets of wisdom to drop on me.

>>18062505
YES. you're dropping way too much info.
Mike knowing ab out Erica mad at us could also have some ripples.

Trust me. im a scientist

rolled 77 = 77

>>18062470
I laughed so hard that im in tears LG. Thanks.

>>18062470
Explain how the Doctor sent us back in time, and we need to crash for a while. Maybe mention going home for stuff.
>>18062488
Then do that.

>>18062522
The knowledge isn't what's important, it's the actions and it's only the actions that have impact on the time traveler before he time travels that are important.

>>18062488
>>18062470

"Be a good idea not to let on that you were expecting that, or that I was here. Main reason though was to see if I could go home some time in the near future. I didn't really get a chance to pack before coming here."

>>18062508
even if you didnt make sure they'd happen.
But by now interferring, they might NOT happen as they happened

>>18062470
"Hey Mike. The Doctor sent me back from later this evening; I assume you've experienced his temporal shenanigans before.
"Anyway, can I arrange to have my bike picked up from my home dimension? It's...personal."

>>18062540
That isn't how paradox works. All of the events we do now are events that will have already happened. That's how time travel works. The idea of paradox is a theoretical construct designed to show that you can't change the past, you can only reveal aspects of it you didn't already know about. So we're fine.

>>18062470
>>18062488
>>18062539

This is the best way to go about it, methinks.

Also, kudos to >>18062539

FOR REMEMBERING WHY WE CAME TO TALK TO HIM.

>>18062556
>So we're fine.
Unless OP decides otherwise.
HUE

>>18062574
In which case he'll hue hue hue and then reset to non-paradox.

>>18062556

The problem is that a little change won't affect anything.

We could run to where or past self is and kill him, thus destroying the universe via paradox.

Paradox can happen, but if we're careful to cover up our tracks or have it known that we're "Temporally Displaced" in advance we dodge 99.9% of the risk.

>>18062570

This, give a hint, reveal little, avoid paradox, AND ACTUALLY ASK ABOUT THE BIKE.

>>18062614
Except we can't. That's not how paradox works. What will happen if we try to find and kill ourselves is that events will align in such a way that we fail without meeting ourselves, since we already failed to get killed by our future selves. "Back To The Future" paradox is a hollywood invention, actual paradox is used to illustrate that you'll fail any attempts to actually alter the past, you can only do things that future your had already done without your knowledge.

>>18062539
>>18062570
>>18062630

Oh god, the bike.

I totally fucking forgot that's what we wanted to talk about.

>>18062488
>>18062516
>>18062529
"Well, I just got back from meeting with the Doctor and" Mike cuts you off.
"NOPE. SHUT IT. No spoilers." He says with a wave of his hand. "Last time he got someone to spoil something for me, I ended up duct-taped to the cafeteria roof."

"Tell me anything else except spoilers." he finishes.
"Well then Mike, I was wondering If i could have the chance to go home and pick up a few stuff." You explain as your thoughts wander back on your bike, "I never did get the chance to pack before going here."

"Well kid, as luck would have it there will be an extended rest period by next week, the trainees will be allowed to access the Stargate so they can go home or anything. Can you wait till then?"

>fucking captcha, I'M TYPING IT CORRECTLY. WHY WONT YOU ACCEPT IT.

>>18062662
Yeah that sounds alright.

>>18062662
"Yeah, sure. Thanks, Mike. Anyway, trust your instincts later today. Bye."

>>18062662
"Yeah, sure. So, uh, I'm gonna go take a nap for the rest of the morning, see you class, sorta."

Not spoilers, telling him our morning plan, as he is our handler.

>>18062662
"Yeah, thanks Mike."

Okay, he doesn't want spoilers of any kind. So I think that's all for our meeting with Mike. Let's go do some shopping for that massage oil, then when our past self is in class, we can get some sleep.

>>18062662
Yes that is fine, I just didn't know anything about it and thought I might need special permission or something, otherwise I'm just here to hang out till my other self is out of the room.

>>18062638

>Hollywood Invention.

We are in a fictional story with so much magic bullshit running around it'd make a pixy shit.

Remember: The Doctor, probably the greatest expert on time travel ever, told us that paradox is bad, can happen, and we should avoid it.

>>18062662
Yeah, not really that huge a deal to wait a week. Since I'm here and you're here and I have some free time would you mind giving me some pointers in CQC. We don't need a nap too badly and filling in our lack of actual combat experience is useful. We aren't a frontliner but we will want to be able to use bunnymode and time stop to their fullest and knowing more melee combat would help with that.

>>18062057
Landing Gear,
Your inclusion of Erica Hartmann in this quest is the reason I decided to watch Strike Witches. I just finished the series and that scene right after the giant core was defeated, where Sakamoto and Miyafuji are falling. Miyafuji says "It's Okay. There are eleven of us, after all"...
I cried manly tears of joy. I would just like to thank you for that.

Also, great quest, I haven't liked a quest this much since Zeon Quest (However, I never got past the first episode of Red Dwarf or MSG,they were not to my liking)

Thank you for everything you do, and know that you've made at least a small impact in someones life for the better

- Anon

>>18062688
"see you in class" fuck me.

>>18062693
So we have to cleave to the Doctor's "wibbly wobbly, timey-wimey" version of Paradox? That's even easier. We can do basically anything short of meeting our past self in that case.

>>18062662

"Hopefully, yeah. Best not to talk about this until tommorow, we'll be well clear of any paradox by then."

Not spoiler, just letting him know.

>>18062662
"That's cool."
Let's chill here until morning class starts. Then we can go nap.
>captcha
Yeah it is being SUCH a bitch lately.

Before we do anything, we should remember what already occurred.

Ursula does not know about the movie, nor has any clue judging by her reaction.

Erica doesn't know about it either.

We can't alter these things, or else we create paradox. Paradox is bad. All we have to do is not involve ourselves with the twins and we'll be good, for the most part.

Let's do this as if the "future" is already set, but we have to act in a way to keep it set.

>>18062708
>He actually watched Strike Witches

>>18062711

I'm saying WE NEED TO TREAD LIGHTLY AND ASSUME NOTHING.

We shouldn't be running around with nary a care, since that's the road that leads to PARADOX.

And PARADOX = BAD.

>>18062732
No fuck that let's tell Kamen Rider not to let us put Shinku on the team and see what happens

>>18062746

PARADOX. NO.

And we've been over this. Can we just accept the team list and not continue arguing over it?

>>18062746
How about we don't do something that the Doctor warned us not to do?

"Yeah Mike, I can wait till then."
'Soon we'll be back together,' you think as you visualize your bike in your mind's eye.

"So yeah Mike, I'll see you in class or something. I'll be trying to lay low."

Before you finally head out of the door, you turn to Mike to say "Oh yeah, Make sure the window is open before lunch."

"Goddammit kid. Get out of here." He tells you as he pulls out another magnificent cigar.

You walk out of his office.

'Okay, I should be taking the twins to their room by now. I have a few more minutes till classes start and Im in the clear. Maybe i should take to Ursula about that whole 'liking me' thing.'

WAT DO?

>>18062746

On the one hand, Paradox Bad.

On the other, I fucking hate Shinku oh my god.

On the third hand, do we really want to start that shit storm again?

On the fourth hand, I apparently now have four hands. This is probably not good.

>>18062746
What? No. Let's NOT actively try to change events, and screw over everything.
Which is why we lay low by resting in the morning, and going to town in the afternoon. Once Susan1 is packed away for the evening at Ryuu's, we should be safe to come back to campus.

>>18062769
[x] wait for Ursula in R&D

>>18062769
Hide in our room and get our nap on for a while.

Wake up with enough time to talk to Ursula or go to town or whatever.

>>18062769

Lets go to the R&D.

Also LG, since the timeline for this is EXTREMELY limited, I'd actually you railroad our interactiong with Ursula to fit with how she reacts to us in the lift.

>>18062769
Bed. We are fukken tired. No need to talk to Ursula at this very moment.

>>18062769
Hide out in the Library.
With everyone going to class, it's unlikely anyone will be there, and we can wait until our past-self is safely in class before we move out.

>>18062769
[x] Wait for Ursula in R&D.

Put this up to the dice gods, and cut this shit off at the pass.

>>18062790

I think we want to interact with her AFTER the lift bit to keep our relative timelines mostly sane.

>>18062769
Go nap.

>>18062771
I have also been following the SW quest, I like it also, but I didn't catch it till after I was halfway through the first season

>>18062769
Library, find a nice comfy chair and read up on alchemy, get some studying in, I know Ryuu says that experience over information but having a strong base of information is helpful. I'd rather not interact with her before we interacted earlier just due to the potential of fucking that up. However I'm fine with seeing her while we're doing alchemy with Ryuu.

>>18062804
Ok, supposed we talk.

When do we talk?

>>18062804
THE DICE GODS HAVE SPOKEN.

>>18062827
>>18062804
Oh SHUT UP. 90% of the 'drama' is people bitching that we're bitching.

>>18062804
He did flip a coin, I'm not against that

Though I still hate the very idea of purposefully messing with something like that when we already have no idea what the results of our previous prank will be.

Bull. China shop. This is what we're being right now.

>>18062790
I wont railroad, the scenario for this morning is relative mild.
YOu managed to avoid 1 paradoxical moment.
YOu have to clear another just another more.

Lunch is another story al together though. huehuehuheu

>>18062826

Well, now.

Because that was the choice: Do we dodge this shit in the immedate future, or talk now?

>>18062827
Dammit dice gods, stop trying to rend apart time and space.

Anyway, voting to explore campus, we've only been here a few days, would be nice to get an idea of how large this place is. Also lowers paradox chance.

>>18062852
Hide and nap.

>>18062859
It also increases 'shouldn't you be in class' chance.

Guys we've had a full length day already, if we want to be any good at all to erica tonight we really need to sleep.

Talking with someone for a bit is still fine, but we really really need to take a nap, and the sooner the better.

>>18062852
Either Ryuu or hide and read, we need to step up our game on this alchemy and I doubt we'll fuck everything up by learning more from Ryuu, we can to a wink wink nudge nudge about the doctor and he'll understand and it'll be just fine.

>>18062852
My opinion is we head to our room and sleep for the morning. A little before lunch, we GTFO to town for some afternoon shopping. If we should HAPPEN to run into Ursula on our way to town, well, we can see what happens.

You decide to head down to R&D to wait for Ursula for a little talk.
You hide yourself behind a column inside the dome and wait.

A few minutes later you see her approaching.
Carrying a stack of papers, and Victor projecting some graphs and text in front of her, Ursula enters the dome.

You step out of the shadows and meet her.
"Uhm Hello, Ursula."
"Hello," She says as Victor shuts down his holodisplay. "Shoudn't you be in class?"

>>18062852
Hide, and get some sleep. Then we can head to town during the events of lunch.

>>18062911
"I'm here from the future. I can't tell you much because of spoilers. I just thought we could chat for a little while."

>>18062911
Goddamnit.

>>18062911
"I am. Don't worry about it."

Well, Ursalanons, you're up I'm not going to try to think up conversation for this trainwreck of an idea.

>>18062919
Sorry guys, but by going down the OTHER route [talking to mike] you cant get back to the hide/nap choice for now.

>>18062911
Well this is going to end poorly.

>>18062933
Sounds like a good start.

>>18062911
>Shoudn't you be in class?
Aw fuck, I knew this would come up.

"It's not a problem."

Alright, what the fuck do we say? What the fuck CAN we say, that won't fuck up the future?

>>18062852

I enjoy how half the chart for the 'time travel' is covered in 'spoilers' and 'paradox'.

>>18062804

Welp, dice gods have spoken, and since we won't reach a consensus otherwise...

What's the best way to approach her?

>>18062937
May as well be up front with it I guess. Maybe she'll enjoy the intrigue.

>>18062911
"Oh I will be."
Then we try and talk to her about Erica cluing us in on her feelings.

this might end up in a train wreck but dear god, the ride is too much fun

>>18062911
"Long story; don't worry about it. Got time to chat?"

rolled 53 = 53

>>18062911
"I am."

Let's experiment with Kraus, seeing how different potions affect his combat abilities.

We're support, I really want to diversify our abilities. Healing, buffing, debuffing, defense and offense, etc.

>>18062771
If I'm not mistaken, isn't OP also running SW quest?

>>18062968
Kraus is currently suffering MAJOR FEEDBACK due to time travel. Doubt he's going to be much use for a while.

>>18062951
Dear god. you should see the LUNCH route i have planned.
Its too convoluted. then there's the fucking hypotheticals i had to work in.

>>18062942
What.

>>18062971
Different people.

>>18062911

"I am. It's... complicated. The Doctor knows more about time travel than I do, and he said mums the word."

>>18062971
not even close.

for one planefag is eastern standard and Landing Gear is litterally on the other side of the world, in the Philippines.

>>18062971
... No. That's Planefag. Or Planefaggin, when he trips over the "[possessive noun] engine" banfilter.

>>18062982
Which we can easily skip by waking up before lunch and going to town.

Which is one of the reasons I suggested it (the other still being Erica covered in oil).

SPOILERS much guys?

We shouldn't even mention anything about timetravel.

Shes not going to respond like Mike and save us from ourselves.

Just make some excuse about a break.

>>18063009
Same reason I did, as well.

And we made contact with a critical person. Fantastic.

Just please, please don't tell her anything about future events.

>>18062982

I think that about lunch time, we need to be gone.

IDEA!

We get to be below the window Mike's going to come out of.

"Technically I didn't lie. I didn't need for you to cover for me yet, from my point of view. I think given how the rest of the day's going to go I should be somewhere other than here."

>>18063013
I agree.
We shouldn't even MENTION time travel. Just say we're going to class now, or we're on a little break.

>>18063009
you think i didnt factor the town in?
2 words GODDAMMIT SHIROU.

>im spoiling too much. fucking time travel.

>>18063030
Oh, I really like that!

>>18063013

"Doing the Doctor a favor. Can we talk?"

Best I can do.

>>18062911
Well if we don't tell her about the time travel we might fuck things up given our interaction in the elevator earlier/later. But if we do tell her it might have complications later/earlier. We need new tenses for this shit. So tell her Magic which should make her nod and go OK without having to go into time stuff.

So chat with her a bit, make sure everything is cool between us, her and Erica. Ask what she's working on. Apologize for what happened, seek to make some amends.

>>18063065
Start using terms like 'will have had.' Future pluperfect is your friend when doing time shenanigans.

>>18063065
It hasn't happened yet from her perspective, that's dumb.

>>18063046
Ah, yes, of course. Fuck.

"Oh I will be," you answer her. "I just came by for a little chat."
"Oh." You see her fidget a little. "Well I guess i have time to spare."

She follows you to one of the sofas scattered around the foyer, and sits down.
"What do you want to talk about?" she asks you.

>>18063092
Oh god we can't get away.

Shit shit shit someone say something

>>18063092
"I just want to clear the air."

rolled 6 = 6

>>18063092
Jesus fuck this is YOUR IDEA guys, not mine. This is an awkward trainwreck of a conversation, so I'm going to roll for BUTLER CHARISMA to fix this.

Watch me roll a one.

>>18063092
"I want to talk about us, if that's okay with you."

>>18063082
My question is how he'll make it all the way out to town during lunch.

Maybe we should use him to pass awkward notes, where his stupidity will ensure it arrives at the absolute worst possible time for the receiver.

>>18063092
I'm out, good luck Ursulafags.

>>18063110
Well, at least it's not a one.

>>18063092
Hrm. We need to go over our relationship with Erica, and mention that we've both agreed that it isn't hugely serious yet.
And ask her how she feels about it.

>>18063111
NO NO NO NO goddamn.

Tell her we are getting the feeling that she might be uncomfortable about the situation with us and her sister and we wanted to explain things.

rolled 35 = 35

>>18063092

>>18063104

"Just wanted to make sure things weren't... awkward between me, you, and Erica. Because I know you two are close, and I tend to screw up relationship stuff quite badly. Never a foot in the mouth when I can get the whole leg. I just wanted to try and make sure that whatever happens, things don't get weird."

I have way too much practice with time-travel shenanigans.

>>18063092
"You do science, right? What would happen if someone, say, created a temporal paradox?"

>>18063092
Goddammit, I was against this from the beginning but I'll still do my best at damage control. Fuck you guys.

"I wanted to talk about, if you're comfortable with the way things are right now."

>>18063092
Safe topic, safe topic, safe topic.

This is why I didn't want to talk to her, if we don't apologize now it is rude, and confusing when we apologize in the elevator as why wouldn't we have done it then, and if we do apologize now it's plain weird when we shove ourselves into an elevator in order to apologize. Fuck.

How about we say that we have a normal conversation about say her teaching us about the more technical aspects of magic and at the end look at our watch, go my lord look at the time, give a short apology for the disk incident and say we will make up for our lack of proper apologies by giving her a proper butlery one later!

>>18063092
Let's just make casual conversation. Get to know her better. Show off our winning charm. That sort of thing. No need to get into any serious topics unless she brings it there herself.

>>18063151

Fucking perfect, right tone, right intent, and just the right amount of foreshadowing.

Let's go with this one guys.

>>18063152
This might work.

>>18063155
Disk incident hasn't happened yet for her.

>>18063157
This is good.

>>18063157
I like this. Only take it the relationship direction if that's where she goes.

>>18063152
forgot: "And how would it cause a gorilla to be duct-taped to the cafeteria roof?"

>>18063152
I like this one. I like it a lot.

>>18063172

Guys, spoilers.

We need to be CAREFUL.

>>18063151

THIS. Word for Word.

>>18063172
>>18063176
>>18063178
>>18063190

Avoid all mentions of Time Travel.

We only talk about that shit when we know it's safe.

>>18063151
Okay, this sounds safe, but afterwards, after lunch when she's seen the video, won't it make us look even more stupid?

Morning: we tell her we sometimes stick our entire leg in our mouth, we're trying to be better about it.
Lunch: have her watch sex tape with us and her sister
Afternoon: apologize for previous stupidity

I guess it could work, but I have my doubts.

>>18063151
Throwing more support for this.

>>18063231
Sounds like about the best we can do for now. She said she forgave us after we apologized.

"Just wanted to make sure things weren't... awkward between me, you, and Erica. Because I know you two are close, and I tend to screw up relationship stuff quite badly. Never a foot in the mouth when I can get the whole leg. I just wanted to try and make sure that whatever happens, things don't get weird."

"I mean, you've woken up in my bed twice now. It's not that im complaining, but i dont know, maybe it's weird for you?"

***ROLL FOR EFFECT***

>>18063231
It's the best suggestion we've had so far.

So things went well?

"No, it's nothing." She says slightly blushing. "I-i like being close to you."
"And you even served us breakfast in bed. No one's gone so far for us before."

"I aim to please milady." You tell her with a bow.

An elevator arrives at the lobby, you hear the DING as the doors open. She stands up and begins to go to it.
"I better go down now, I dont want to keep mister Rood waiting."

You accompany her to the elevator, but don't step inside. You remember the slight trauma the lunch incident might cause her.

Before the doors close though, she leans over and gives you a quick peck on the cheek.
"I like you Hayate." she says as she hides her face behind the stack of papers she was holding.
The doors close and the elevator begins its descent.

You are left in the lobby touching the cheek she kissed and wondering what to do next.

WAT DO OH MASTER BUTLERS?!

>>18063436
I think he did. I think.
He has been reading the discussion form the last thread.

ROOM. NAP. PREPARE FOR LUNCH SHENANIGANS

We've been awake for more than 24 hours right? oh wait, the tests with the doctor took more time too. Maybe 36+hours no sleep?

Suddenly consensus.

Also protip: if we do get massage oil later, get two bottles and keep them on our person separately in case of FUCKING SHIROU

rolled 100 = 100

>>18063453

Nooope. Paradox since he sees us later and that will affect his interactions with us.

Go nap.

I'm curious to see what the advanced class is like. And a flustered Nanoha is always welcome, bring her a bento or something.

rolled 78 = 78

>>18063453

>>18063453

We shit in this bed. Now we have to sleep in it.

>>18063453
I don't see how avoiding lunch will hurt us too badly, unless we're unable to get to R&D after the elevator thing.
If we nap later, we might oversleep it.
Besides, we've clearly been given Keimatime. We'll just have to do out best to avoid FUCKING SHIROU.

rolled 87 = 87

>>18063482
Keima? who was in class with us the whole time?

>>18063414
Go to our room, and catch some sleep.

At lunch, dummy.

>>18063506
My only concern is that Shirou might return to eat more of his room fudge while we're napping. But I do support plan 'Get some fucking sleep'

>>18063545
That's what the locks on our door are for.

Suddenly feeling very tired, what with the extra long day the doctor has given you, you head to your room to nap.

You do your best to avoid the windows of your class, using trees and other obstructions for cover.

You arrive at the dorm. You pass Shirou's room, the door still taken off it's hinges, and find that he has now been able to carve out a cave of about 3x3 meters in the fudge.
There's a fudge desk and a fudge bed.
'Fucking shirou.' you think with a chuckle.

You get to your room and take a nap, setting an alarm for five minutes before lunch.

Lunch will be a challenge. but im sure you guys will get through it it very few huehuehues

>>18063568
Lock the door, close the blinds, we don't want anyone stumbling in on us napping and seeing us elsewhere, might upset things.

>>18063414

>Hayate

Huh....

Did we ever mention our real name to Ursula?

Or did Erica tell Ursula our sob story?

>>18063568
We should probably avoid the classroom altogether; people will have seen us preparing a salad for Mike, and it might raise some questions if they see us about.

But it's been implied that we might get Shiroued if we go to town.

>>18063591
No and probably not.

I, for one, thought our past was too over-the-top.

>>18063592
It is worth it for well oiled german twins.

Wait outside Mikes window for when he gets out. We can chill with Mike, get some CQC training, stay out of the way, hopefully, and avoid paradox, again hopefully.

>>18063592
>implying we won't get Shirou'd whatever we do.
I suggest we harass Keima on the roof. Timestopped skirtflipping anyone?

>>18063611
I think it is canon for the character.

>>18063592
Which is why we sleep till after lunch when Shirou will need to be back in class.

Then we're foot loose and fancy free.

>>18063611
That's his canon past. Also, we didn't tell Erica our past, just our name.

>>18063568

Alright, we accomplished our main goals for the morning with no headaches.

We need to lay down a game-plan for phase two. My suggestion:

-Find Gai and/or Kamia, see if they'd be interested in a trip to town over lunch. Shopping alone's boring, and we can provide food.
>If they ask, we say it's for the inevitable screw-up with Erica because Genre Savvy. In fact, all Meta/Temporal hints will know be hand-waved as 'genre savvy' to avoid questions.
-Lunch, shop, etc.
-Ask them not to talk about this trip until tomorrow, because time-travel.
-Lay loose plans to go home, get bike.
-Ask Kemia for dating advice, because we all know that's going to be fucking hilarious.

>>18063631
Yep it was cannon.
We even had a magical loli teach us butlery in a possessed castle.
>see the pics OP has been posting
A-tan just might be the key to our crashing

>>18063645
Talking to critical people is always a bad idea when time traveling, even when the idea of paradox is as weak as it apparently is in this universe.

Critical people being ones that your past self had contact with during that time frame.

>>18063668

When I mentioned her in connection with our crashing, LG responded it was possible.

>>18063643
we told her our backstory of almost getting sold by the yakuza for our organs

>>18063678
Agreed.

Unfortunately this pretty much leaves us with Shirou.

Also Lily but she'd probably be upset when she found out we skipped her for the team after spending time with her.

>>18063711
lily still doesnt know about the team expansion. that happens at the end of class.

LILY WILL KNOW that theres two of us running around though.
And talking to her now jsut might fuck it up

>>18063645

I think we can trust Gai to keep a secret.

>Ask Kemia for dating advice, because we all know that's going to be fucking hilarious.

OH GOD! HOW DID I NOT SEE THAT?!?

"Wait, the video games you're always playing are dating sims? Wait, how applicable is that knowledge to real life?"

>Lay loose plans to go home, get bike.

We need to start revealing small details of our past until somebody asks for the whole accounting. Then we win the 'worst childhood contest'. Hard to top Santa telling you to your face that poor kids whose parents didn't love them don't deserve a merry christmas.

>>18063643

No, she got a vague gist that our life sucked. She just doesn't know any of the horrifying details.

>>18063711
Or we avoid people entirely.

Running into people when we're supposed to be elsewhere is the issue in the first place, why are we looking to hang out with people who knew where we were?

>>18063732
She is blind. Maybe she won't be sure.

>>18063747

At least real Santa is here and we can talk to him about it if we want to resolve some of our barely contained emotional issues.

>>18063753
Enhanced majaikal spatial awareness, however.

>>18063752
I agree that we should avoid most people until after classes end for the day, when past-Susan will have gone down to Ryuu and leaving us with less possible Time Paradoxes.

Guys, how about heading off to the advanced classes?

Go check out who is there, say hi to Nanoha and watch her go into a panic.

Do not talk to any important student who we interact with later today. We will color their actions and might ruin EVERYTHING. Either strangers, people who our past self doesn't talk to or teachers who are understanding. Avoid interaction with those directly involved in "the lunch incident". Until we go to learn alchemy from Ryuu time itself is in danger. I posit hanging with Mike or studying/reading our alchemy book in a very quiet corner of the school.

>>18063711
I doubt that, she would probably be disappointed to not be on our team but I dare say she would like spending time with us after the ball.

She seemed to enjoy the dance quite a bit

Also we could troll shinku a bit with our spare time since we didn't seem to do much with her yesterday after getting her on our team.

Also prepare for dinner with the twins while we are out shopping, make sure we have all the nice little bits to really make it a good night

>>18063777
Sakura might be there at lunch.
Too risky.
And we're sure sakura cant keep her mouth shut.
>"SohecamedowntoNANOHA'SclassandgaveheraBENTO,iwishhegaveMEaBENTO. *pout*"

I think it's safe to say that there are a couple of people we can 'trust' with time travel.

Kemia is smart enough that if we gave him a vague idea of the implications, he wouldn't have a problem coping.

Gai dosen't strike me as genius, but he's reasonably smart and he trusts/likes us. I think if we asked he would keep a secret and/or help us.

The Doctor If we showed up and told him we needed a place to hide for a couple of hours to avoid a prime taradox he'd help just because he knows how big a deal that is.

River, same deal.

Mike prefers 'hands off' but if we REALLY needed it, I think he'd help.

Not saying we SHOULD go around yelling 'IMMA TIME TRAVELER' but It's not instant lose territory if we talk to certain people.

>>18063795
>Also we could troll shinku a bit with our spare time since we didn't seem to do much with her yesterday after getting her on our team.
It's not YESTERDAY. it's LATER.

>>18063812

Actually, that sounds highly amusing and if we only dropped it off, it won't take too long and is plausible. hehe.

>>18063815
>Not saying we SHOULD go around yelling 'IMMA TIME TRAVELER' but It's not instant lose territory if we talk to certain people.
Im sure the instructors would be cool with time travel, THEY WORK WITH THE DOCTOR afterall.
But they might be like mike that's handsoff on the subject

what we need to avoid are the students.
And kenji.
SPECIALLY KENJI

>>18063764

Yeah, we should if we have the chance.

Like, we're stuck in an elevator with him.

"So, are you like actually THE Santa? I mean, I met one, but I'm not sure he was you."

Then tell him the story.

>>18063834

Oh god no, Kenji is perfect. Feed those paranoid delusions.

"Oh, I'm not him. He's having lunch with Mike. I'm the robot built to replace him, though I'd appreciate you not mentioning that."

Test the entire group's pokerface.

Okay, im back.
Finalize your plans for lunch.
and let's get the ball rolling again.

<revealing now defunk morning scenario.
<Some elements have been carried over to lunch

>>18063862
Well that was pretty fucking close then.

>>18063862

>Mfw we just barely avoided disaster.

Guys, this is absolutely the last time we do time travel.

>>18063862
Go into town to buy some stuff. Avoid Shirou, talk to people we see that aren't predestined to interact with past us to avoid paradox chances.

>>18063862

I like this plan OP: >>18063645

Not sure how everybody else feels.

>>18063878
>>18063881
don't you mean

"This is the last time we try to contact critical existences in our timestream"?

wait a minute, if our Kraus is having problems due to multiple minds to neural link to, how come he didn't have that problem making... everybody... lunch...

Oh fuck.

>>18063862
Holy shit, and the Lunch Scenario is even more complex, with even more possibility of absolute failure.

Voting to hide out in our room until after lunch and everyone is back in class, then go into town and get some of our shopping done.
We know we won't meet Shirou because he'll be in class at the time.

>>18063891

We can do all that tomorrow or some other day.

Doesn't have to be today where a single mistake will fuck us all up.

>>18063881
>>18063878

What we need to do afterwards is let some people know we accidentally time traveled. NOT WHILE WE'RE IN THE DANGER ZONE, AFTER WE'RE CLEAR.

Let people know that time-travel happens sometimes.

>>18063862

Right.

I'm suggesting we avoid all contact.

Can Krus create a disguise? Lets just spend the whole day in town, checking out whats available and all.

>>18063903
Easy! He didn't know there were two minds to link to, so he didn't even try!

>>18063903
idk.. time travel Majaik, i guess.

The kraus with FUTURE you is basically have a hugeass dejavu

>>18063903

Because that was Yesterday?

Dude, the only guys we cooked for today was us and Mike.

We're cool.

>>18063862
Contact no one important and don't go to town, I'm sure people we know go to lunch in town and given our luck we'll run into Shirou. We either hide under a rock with a book, or wait outside Mikes window and chill with him. I want some CQC training from a gorilla damn it.

rolled 3 = 3

>barely any consencus

1 go to town
2 hide in room further
3 wait for Mike under window

>>18063862
Continue sleeping till classes start back up so nobody who talked to us is still out and about?

You guys are all pussies.

>>18063891

I'm with you bro, accept no substitutes.

>>18063961
Awesome, that was the one I wanted.

>>18063961

I love LG. Almost as much as I love PF.

>>18063961

TOO SOOOOON!

TOO SOOOOON!

We need more time to talk this out.

We'll start saying 'time to roll' if we give up on a consensus.

>>18063961
That's fine. The massage oil can wait for a day that DOESN'T require vast micromanagement to prevent the destruction of the world.

>>18063983

LG runs on a schedule as well. He can't just sit about waiting till we give up.

And this keeps the quest moving at a good pace.

>>18063983
Baah, he's been gone for quite some time, in the interests of moving the fuck on, I'm fine with rolling to the current big three.

>>18063961
Hopefully this leads into 'troll Keima on roof with stopwatch'
>>18063983
>telling OP how to run his quest
No fuck you.

>>18063991
We still have all afternoon bro, I'm not really sure why we need to go right /during/ the dangerous lunch hour where we don't know everyone's location.

rolled 54 = 54

How about lunch with Lilly

>>18064012
Critical existance! Paradox! Retards!

>>18064019
But it really isn't?

What is your deal?

>>18064019
She can probably already sense that there are two of us. Not that it matters.

>>18064027
Anyone who is in close contact with the time travellers past self during the timeframe is a critical existance. Lilly is our classmate, and therefore in close contact with us.

So, yes she is.

>>18064012
How about not?
Besides, since we're going to be with Mike for the lunch hour, it seems, he can help us get to a room where we can be safe from the other students.

The alarm you set wakes you up.
Opening your eyes and feeling a bit more refreshed you ponder what to do next.
'meeting anyone from class might be dangerous with time paradox and whatnot.'
'I need to avoid Erica going to R&D and back.'
And then you remember. MIKE DITCHED YOU when Erica stromed into the room.

'Time to stick it to him, or at the very least, screw with him'

rolled 79 = 79

>>18064047
Like she didn'tdo that when we thought we were only one of ourselves.

>>18064019
As long as we don't meet us or fuck up causation we are fine. We didn't spend any time with Lily last time around, once she leaves class we are safe with her.

>>18064057
Hell yeah, hanging around with BroMike!

>>18064053
Yes totally because the whole thing is running on your dipshit rules you made up. We already talked to Mike and Ursula and didn't get sucked into a timehole.

>>18064057

At this rate we'll need three threads to get through today. Again. This time.
I hate timetravel.

>>18064073
Except meeting her during lunch could cause her reactions to change, altering our past timeline in ways we cannot predict.

For example coming straight to us and ffering to join our group, so we end up not visiting ryuu, meeting Ursula and apologizing, or visiting the doctor.

Critical existance isn't just about interaction it's also about proximity.

rolled 90 = 90

Yeah, I'm suggesting that after meeting and talking with Mike we go and talk with Lilly

>>18063992
>>18063995

We were still debating relevant points, not screaming 'YOU'RE WRONG!' at each other.

That's not a good time to fast forward, because then we're avoiding talking things out.

>>18064001

>No fuck you.

Go fuck yourself. I was the one who suggesting rolling for when we couldn't decide in the first place, very much as a time and place thing.

This was neither the time or the place.

It's like if you wanted to go out to dinner, and you were stuck between picking two restaurants: flip a coin.

We were at about "So what restaurants are on the list of options?" and "How do you guys feel about Italian?"

Besides, quests are interactive. Limiting the interaction harms the quest, and roll out option should only be when there's no real hope.

Undoubtably people are going to say unpleasant things about me for bothering to elucidate my position, but I always respond badly to unwarranted hostility.

Even if it's not directed at me.

>>18064097
I agree. TWINS THEY WERE is enough of a minefield without this shit going on around it.

>>18064086
Mike knows how to deal with it, and we bloody skirted the edge with Ursula which you would know if you had read the chart.

>>18064101
We aren't playing by your rules here and we can resolve that by occupying her attention to the point when past us goes to the Doctor and then we are free and clear.

rolled 5 = 5

>>18064101
OR we could have done that already and it had no effect.

>>18064104
Go run your own quest if it means that fucking much to you.

>>18064095
Supporting this

>>18064114
I read it you condescending douchefuck.

WE HAVE NO PREDESTINED SHIT WITH LILY. WE DID NOT INTERACT WITH HER AT ALL LAST TIME.

>>18064057
You stealthily make your way under the window of your classroom and wait there covered by the well tailored shrubbery.

A few moments later you hear from from above you ".....GET THIS DISK?!"
'Yep, Erica's just on time.'

Looking up you spot Mike jumping out the window like a bat out of hell, the beer mug still in his hand.

He lands in the bushes, the beer surprisingly not spilling.

"Sup Mike," You tell him as you stand up from your hiding place, "Thanks for DITCHING ME man."

>>18064121
>>18064122
Did none of you actually read the morning chart we were given where it basically said talking to ursula was going to end in paradox unless we managed to come up with a way to avoid it?

>>18064134
Which is why causing that interaction would cause some fucking paradox.

>>18064135
We better be grinning like mad here.

>>18064136
Yes, and we did. We can do it again if we have to.

This wibbly-wobbly mishmash really isn't that hard to deal with.

rolled 29 = 29

>>18064136
Because we directly interracted with her while not yet travelled, which we haven't done with Lilly

/tg/ - You Faggots Will Argue About Anything

>>18064127

Re-read the post, I'm not the guy who freaked out.

I just don't think being upset at thinking you're having choice ripped out of your hands in an interactive game warrants a 'fuck you'.

Ignoring the hostile idiot...

>>18064095

Not sure pissing off our combination teacher/handler/friend is the best idea here.

Since he probably has the authority to chuck our ass back into the shitty life we came from.

>>18064148
You are worried that she will run away from us to go see other us somewhere else and bother us and change the past?

Do you understand how unlikely that is? Hell maybe we offset the timing of the elevator by a few seconds earlier in the thread and past us won't catch it in time to apologize to Ursula. You can't get hung up on the minute possibilities here.

>>18064168
Oh sorry were we having the wrong kind of fun?

>>18064135
Can't really blame the gorilla, though.
Would YOU get between a German ace Witch and someone she was annoyed at?

Anyway, there's no more spoilers he'll have to worry about, so let's ask him about Bureau regulations concerning time travel and such.

>>18064182
This is a good idea.

>>18064178
not "run away from us" but "have lunch with us and decide to chat with us after class/during decision on the team time afterwards"

Is it so hard to believe that she'd be friendly back when we were friendly first?

Okay, im gonna step in and ask what would interacting with lily bring into the quest at this point in time?

She's already out of the team, you're just trying to add another route to a full clusterfuck we are just barely avoiding.

Anyway, you still have the whole afternoon left.

Mike route fits in with mike dissapearing for the remainder of lunch.

>>18064182

Since we have him, might as well.

>>18064188
So we keep her occupied until that is no longer an issue. It isn't rocket surgery.

>>18064191
Because KS waifufags

>>18064197
Cause she totally doesn't need to separate and go back to class at any point, right?

>>18064218
I don't remember us specifically noticing her there.

So no not necessarily.

>>18064191

Yeah, we need to set some ground-rules where this is concerned.

IDEA: We buy a 'Time Traveling' hat. Which we wear when we're 'Temporally Displaced' so they know that we're not the one we're looking for.

Plus, we could abuse the shit out of that for fun.

>>18064226
You mean like the top hat where we store Jacob?

"Hey man, you of all people should know how scary that girl could be." He tells you as he finishes the beer in the mug.
You can only reply with a shrug.
"And goddammit, Susan. Do you really want to risk paradoxes that badly?" the mug disappears into thin air.
"Come with me to my office, you can hide out in there for lunch."

Mike guides you through some maintenance corridors and emergency exits way out of sight of people and manages to deposit you in his office.

He takes a cigar out and lights up.
again you are facing the impressive rack of weapons on his wall.

[ ] talk about weapons

>IDEA: We buy a 'Time Traveling' hat. Which we wear when we're 'Temporally Displaced' so they know that we're not the one we're looking for.

I actually like the hell out of that.

A basic visual warning like that would circumvent any need for us to FREAK OUT CRAWL THROUGH VENTS AVOID THE PARADOX.

Shit, we see us across the room with the hat on, we'll know not to get involved.

Let's be honest, this time traveling was pretty spur of the moment. I think that if we actually thought it out, time travel wouldn't be that big a deal.

>>18064244
OTHER: Bureau operational procedures and regulations concerning time travel, and what we're supposed to do about it.

>>18064244
Talk about time travel.

Also weapons.

Let's serve some whiskey too.

>>18064232

No, something simple but distinct. Something people would immediately recognize it for what it is and it's purpose.

I would deliberately avoid Top-hats for that reason.

>>18064244

"I'm really just winging it here."

Ask for advice and/or Bureau policies vis a vis 'Time Travel'.

>>18064244
weapons and cigars

>>18064263
I like this.

just bro it up and casually slip that we're now one step closer to a german witch sandwich

A Hartburger if you will

>>18064280
This.

ask him where he gets his cigars with the two headed eagles on them that look like they'd make you a tactical genius or something

>>18064280
>>18064258
>>18064256
>>18064248

Whenever we go to town, we need to buy a time-traveling hat.

Also, we're REALLY out of our depth with this time travel thing. We should ask for advice.

"The Doctor mentioned that a 'you broke causality high-five' is neither funny or appropriate."

>>18064285

I think we should save the dating advice/convos for Kamina for now, mostly because that's going to be fucking hilarious.

>>18064317
>>18064307
>>18064280

Ask for advice.

Get his opinion on the "Time Traveling Hat".

>>18064317
>Kamina
Oh god I wish. It's Keima.

>>18064280
how bout we add a cape and fake mustache to our time travel outfit? That'd definitely let people know we're having temporal shenanigans

I don't like timetravelling. We should not use it much

>>18064280
>>18064256
You decide to clarify some Bureau protocols about time travel with Mike, to avoid trouble further down the line.

"Well, the Bureau tries to avoid using time travel. Infact, we're about 70% sure that the Bureau was created in response to some paradoxical event, the records are hazy though, and the Doctor wont explain it much."

"We may have access to the technology but we rarely use it since it tends to fuck up things in the long run. Even you just sitting here in my office while past you is in class is too much of a risk."

"It's just that that fucking Doctor wasn't really one for the rules. So we're almost powerless to stop him from messing with time like this."

"he could have sent you back to trigger some sequence of events, OR he could have sent you back jsut to fuck with you."

he then notices you eyeing the weapons on the wall. "anyway, enough of that time travel bullshit."

He says as he stand up from behind his desk, "Grab a weapon. I'll give you a quick lesson in combat."
