I didn't say it wasn't. I've just gotten follow ups on it via "talked about it with a guy named John", although one of 'em had to guess a few J names before I went "must've been John". I've also heard about your ability to fly through various sources? Which, like. I knew. But.
Yeah okay that's. Probably my fault, but whatever. A couple of people asked me to prove the flying thing, a couple of people asked about unreality. Whatever.
It's not really "fault" if it's nothin' to be blamed for. [ he was just listing off things he's heard about john doing...PEOPLE DO MENTION JOHN TO HIM OFTEN ENOUGH and he's like "haha ok" ] People are constantly makin' me prove the time travel shit. And then forcing me to do stupid things like return to parking lot garages to carefully replace bananas in order not to break the timeline.
Someone wanted to see a banana age but then they picked it up when we were done and walked off and in order not to cause a paradox that'd doom me and other people I had to get a banana and put it back.
I mostly saved me? I mean...I can't...split things like that. And it's kind of why it's a pain to tell people things or show them things, because not everyone...sticks to the rules, you know?
[Like John, but John doesn't quite know that yet.]
No, I get it. Paradoxes and stuff. You have explained this to me before...and also I remember enough about Davesprite to know that, so. Maybe cut back on show and tell.
[And so he sends the check away to be put on his card.]
People like believing in stuff or thinking of easy fixes. Movies and shit have made time travel to be a fix. I don't doubt they think the same about your aspect.
Yeah, pretty much. I suck as an advance warnin' thing because if you do anything different then I'm fucked? I mean, that is the entire point of time players, really, but I would prefer to avoid killing myself so some other dave and everyone else can do a little better. Especially because I am not entirely sure that aspect of my power is intact.
I would also prefer to avoid you killing yourself so maybe let's not do that? [But he looks curious.] You think you're still missing pieces of your aspect even after all this time?
Yeah. You and me both. [The check comes back and he signs the receipt, taking his card to go back into his wallet before moving to catch Dave's hand.] Just...don't test shit that means you won't come back. You and me both. Okay?
If it's the same one I am thinking of, I'm not sure I could let you. So...let's hope it doesn't come to that. [But there's a smile.] Come on. No more talking about this dumb shit. Ready to go home? I have a song waiting for you.

That is probably the weirdest use of your aspect I've heard of. But thanks for saving us from banana death.

Right. I think that sounds perfect, actually. [And away they go to do this.]
