FaerieQueen
What do you mean I’m going to die??
FaerieQueen
How? Are you sure it’s me?
DragonSlayer42
I don’t know. I’m looking at the story now. I just saw the name and asked. I shouldn’t have.
FaerieQueen
You shouldn’t have?? If I’m going to die, you don’t think you should warn me??
DragonSlayer42
I’m sorry, I don’t know what the right thing to do is.
FaerieQueen
You don’t know what the right thing is? The right thing is to tell me, so maybe I can do something to stop it!
DragonSlayer42
But, what about all that stuff that we talked about before? Changing the timeline. Back to the Future type stuff. Aren’t we supposed to let things play out like they’re supposed to?
FaerieQueen
NOT when it’s my life! I need to know! If it was you about to die, wouldn’t you want to know??
FaerieQueen
So, what’s the difference? It’s okay for you to know, but not for me?
DragonSlayer42
I already told you.
FaerieQueen
You only told me that it’s going to happen, not how. I need to prevent it from happening at all.
DragonSlayer42
What if it changes things in the future?
FaerieQueen
Like what? Nothing catastrophic is going to happen if I live. I’m nobody.
DragonSlayer42
That’s not true. And you know about the Butterfly Effect. Even a little tiny thing can alter events.
FaerieQueen
I don’t care. Now tell me.
DragonSlayer42
I’m looking. All I see so far is when the funeral is and when you died. Not from what.
DragonSlayer42
But, I’m still looking.
DragonSlayer42
In the meantime, talk about something else. What kind of writing do you do?
FaerieQueen
We’re going to talk about work now?
DragonSlayer42
I just figure that if I’m going to break all the laws of time, and maybe the universe for you, that maybe I should get to know you a little better? 😊
FaerieQueen
Fair point. I work in the city.
DragonSlayer42
But what do you do exactly?
FaerieQueen
I work in TV. I write for Fallon.
DragonSlayer42
Get out! That’s awesome! I’m REALLY impressed. You write sketches?
FaerieQueen
Sketches, monologues. Don’t be so impressed, I’m part of a team of writers. And believe me, I’m waaaay down the line.
FaerieQueen
I think I even report to the janitor. My stuff barely gets used.
DragonSlayer42
Who cares who you have to report to?? Your stuff gets used on TV!
DragonSlayer42
That is freaking awesome! I’m so jealous.
FaerieQueen
Again, don’t be. I thought I’d be a lot farther along than this. I guess the only time I’m ever really fully happy is playing this game.
FaerieQueen
In this game I know I’m good, so it feels like I matter. What about you?
DragonSlayer42
Nothing nearly as exciting as you. I work from home.
FaerieQueen
I would soooo love to work from home! Write for myself. What do you do exactly?
DragonSlayer42
Actually, lots of companies hire me to run their websites.
FaerieQueen
That’s really cool. So, if you’re so good with the internet, find out what happened to me.
DragonSlayer42
I’m looking. Honest. As far as I can tell, they’re not giving any specific cause.
FaerieQueen
How is that possible? I just didn’t keel over and die.
DragonSlayer42
Maybe. I don’t know. Like I said, there’s not much here. It just says that you died and were found dead. Not from what, which is pretty weird.
DragonSlayer42
There’s something strange about it.
FaerieQueen
I just die?? You have to find out from what!
DragonSlayer42
How are you feeling now? Anything bothering you?
FaerieQueen
Do you think that’s it? You think I have a heart attack or something like that?
DragonSlayer42
I don’t know. I guess anything is possible. Maybe you want to check it out?
FaerieQueen
Brandon, my hands are literally trembling.
DragonSlayer42
Don’t be scared. We’re finding it out early enough.
FaerieQueen
We don’t know that. We don’t even know what it is, so there’s no way of knowing that it’s early enough or not.
DragonSlayer42
You should run to a doctor and check it out.
FaerieQueen
That’s exactly what I’m going to do. Are you going to be around after?
DragonSlayer42
Yes, of course. I’m waiting for you. Go!
DragonSlayer42
OMG, been waiting for you. What happened??
DragonSlayer42
What do you mean nothing? You didn’t go?
FaerieQueen
No, I went. I mean they didn’t see anything. They did all sorts of tests and found nothing.
FaerieQueen
They must’ve thought I was nuts, since I was demanding all the tests to begin with, and I said I was feeling okay.
DragonSlayer42
Do you feel better now?
FaerieQueen
No, how could I feel better? Can you check if the news still says the same thing? And I want the truth.
DragonSlayer42
Yes, it still says the same thing.
FaerieQueen
What should I do?
DragonSlayer42
What did your fiancé say?
FaerieQueen
I didn’t say anything to him.
FaerieQueen
What would I say? This guy I’m talking to from the future, when I’m not spending time with you, told me I’m going to die, so I want to check it out?
DragonSlayer42
Well, I wouldn’t use those words exactly. 😊
FaerieQueen
Very funny. You have no idea how terrified I am. Something’s going to happen to me, and I have no idea what and even worse, I have no idea how to stop it.
DragonSlayer42
Listen, maybe I already changed the future by telling you?
FaerieQueen
No, because then the article you read would’ve changed.
DragonSlayer42
Jessica, I think it’s a good idea that you stay home from work that day.
FaerieQueen
Just call in sick because I think I’m going to die?
DragonSlayer42
It’s just one day. Why take a chance?
FaerieQueen
I guess. What will I tell Michael?
DragonSlayer42
Oh, maybe you should tell him everything?
FaerieQueen
No, I’m not telling him.
DragonSlayer42
He’s there and might be able to calm you.
FaerieQueen
Are you sure about the date?
DragonSlayer42
Yes. That’s what it says.
FaerieQueen
Brandon, will you hang with me that day? At least like this. I don’t want to be alone.
DragonSlayer42
Yeah, of course. Don’t worry. I’ll be there with you. And I’ll make sure that nothing happens.
