Quantum Physics 123: Wednesday 19 October

[The Doctor looks great, until one looks him in the eye. He has to sit down, 'cause he's tired.]

Today you're going to continue working on Monday's group assignment: taking a particular event that happened recently at Fandom High and theorising as to different possible outcomes.

Take the information that you both (or you three) came up with, and speculate as to what would have occurred were you to travel back before that event. What would you have tried to prevent or start? And what would that have changed regarding how Fandom High is today?

thank god you're not doing this for real, as I cannot cope with more twisted timelines. Hopefully this will show the danger of even the smallest historical change. I'll be here if you have questions.

No, I haven't tried it yet. I don't know if anyone has done anything with him, other than get him a collar which looks really nice on him when it's the only thing he's wearing when he does his three-seconds-in-human-form thing.

::shrugs:: Can't hurt, right?

And I so am not going to picture Anders like that, nope. Not at all. Not thinking about Anders with only a collar on now.

Yeah, couldn't hurt. Thanks, I feel better with some plan of action. C'mon, try it out. Maybe a little brass bell and all?

Okay, assignment. Um... if we'd time traveled back to before the zombie attack we could have warned someone? With all the magical-type people at this school, maybe we could have come up with a zombie-repellant so they would go away.

Well... given that it actually turned out perfectly fine... I mean, sure it was gross, and people got hurt, but nobody died, right? So, would we need to change it? Wouldn't we be better off not meddling, cause inevitably meddling would make it all worse?

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

Not... meddle? *is frankly puzzled*

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

Yep. Cause frankly, changing the way Zombie weekend went would change things how they are now... and while I'm sorry about your whole cat boyfriend thing... things are really good for me right now, and I wouldn't want that to change. ::nods::

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

Well, that's good, and I'm happy for you. But you're saying if you had a time machine and the ability to make a change... you wouldn't?

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

Sure, I'd like to poke my head around, see things... but I wouldn't want to change anything. Cause I'm sure that'd end up screwing things up real weird for the universal balance thingy.
