I've got a friend here who came here from a few months into my future. And then there's another one who hasn't met me yet. I haven't talked to them enough to figure out what the time difference is, exactly. Oh, and another guy who's from an alternate dimension. He's kind of like the person I knew, but a bunch of stuff in his past happened differently, and I know people in my dimension who apparently don't exist in his, or at least he hasn't met them, even though he knows them really well in my dimension. He didn't know me either, even though we're related. Whatever's going on here, it's pretty freaky.

There are people being brainwashed?
