The Time Travel Meme


Have you ever wanted your characters to go see the dinosaurs, or be part of the Time Patrol, or go find their True Love in a different era? Or maybe play out the Back To The Future scenario, and have to go and save their parent's marriage?Here is your chance!



[How To]

1. Post as your character. (Please write down the name and canon/fandom of the character in the subject line, and also if they're canon, AU, crossover or OC, etc. Please also write down preferences, scenarios, etc in the comment box)

2. Another character tags yours. Congrats, now your character is either time traveling, or dealing with a time traveler! (Having both characters be time travelers is fine, too.)

3. Thread, tag and have fun!

[How The Multiverse Works]

1. Time Paradox What Time Paradox? : It's impossible to change history, the only thing that would happen if you went and killed your grandfather is that a new Timeline in which your grandfather was killed would branch off from the original one. The good thing - You can't mess your own Timeline's history up, while you can try to create new Timelines in which things go more to your liking. On the other hand, you can't fix your own history,either.

2. Yes, You Can Change History : And if you mess things up, things wouldn't be pretty.

3. Something Else

[Sample Scenarios]

1. To Make Right What Once Went Wrong - At a certain point in their past, things went really wrong for them. Can they make things better, this time around?

2. The Road Not Traveled - Now they have a chance to do something different, and steer their lives, and maybe the world, along a different path...

3. Saving The World - The world was heading toward hell in a handbasket in their 'previous life'. Can they make things better, this time around?

4. We Just Wanna Get Rich, Man - They just want to use their 'future knowledge' to make a ton of money, and/or get popular and famous, etc, etc.

5. We Are The Time Tourists - So you want to go see the dinosaurs, or the mammoths, or any other historical event? The choices are endless...

6. We Are The Time Patrol - And we don't want unauthorized people muckling around with the timelines, either!

7. On To The Future - Never mind going to the past, we want to go to the future. Those descendants of ours had better not mucked everything up...

8. Honey, I Think I Broke History - You went back into the past, and history changed - and not in the ways you'd consider good. What do you do now?

9. Time Travel Romance - Finding True Love, via Time Travel.

10. We Just Invented A Time Machine - And now we want to try it out. Please forgive us if we break the universe by mistake, OK?
