What would you do if you found a younger version of one of your parents here?

Do you stay away from them in order to reduce the chances of causing a time paradox?

Do you team up with them and risk everything to make sure they stay safe?

Do you just sit them down and tell them you're their kid from the future?

What if something happens to them? Will you stop existing since it would mean you weren't ever born in the first place?

Has this happened to anyone before??

That does make a lot of sense. I'm not too clear on how things work around here yet, but it's a possibility we have to consider. I don't know what that would mean if we ever did escape and return home either, but...maybe that's getting a little ahead of things.

Tell me about it. Especially when it's someone you've lost before. If it were me, though, I think I'd rather be honest. It's too much to hold something like that in. Uh, though it probably goes without saying to avoid mentioning any major stuff that happens in his future? Just in case.

Anytime, man. I hope things work out okay for you and your dad.

I mean...I guess I can see the point behind staying quiet about the future. But, hypothetically speaking, what do you do if something bad happened in the future that you want to change? Something that's really, really easy to prevent? Hypothetically speaking.

And I don't know if I can just explain everything so easily. It's tough enough being in a place like this. The last thing I want to do is give them one more thing to worry about just because it was too hard to keep things inside.

Thanks. Me too.
