Time Loop Meme


Something terrible has happened. Something terrible is happening. Something terrible will happen. You're caught in an eternal loop of the same sequence of events and you don't know how to make it stop.

» Post with your characters.
» Roll for a number.
» Play out the events of the thread. The timeline ends with your death.
» Repeat.

Cause of Loop

1. YOUR DEATH
It's all because someone doesn't want you to die. They can't accept it - you can't accept it.

2. THEIR DEATH
They're that one special person you can't live without. It's all your fault. You can fix it, you know you can. Just one more time, just one more time.

3. FAILURE
It's not an option. You're going to continue to do this until you succeed.

4. PURGATORY
There's something you need to come to terms with. You're not allowed to go until you have.

5. YOUR CHOICE
There are a billion reasons for time travelers.

Loop Number


FIRST
It's your first time dying and coming back. You don't know what happened, you're just in your bed again. Maybe it's a week before, maybe it's a year before. All of that must have been a dream. Time to go on with life as usual!

FIFTH
It wasn't a dream and it keeps happening. The same events, the same terrible sequence.

FIFTEEN
You know the drill now. You know the name of the song that's going to play, you know the order of the guy in front of you at the coffee shop, you know all your mistakes. You can fix it, you can make it better, you can't stand seeing someone die again.

ONE HUNDRED
You're apathetic. Maybe you've lost all hope. Everyone is going to die and you take solace in what little time you have with them. You know the exact moment when it's all hopeless.

FINAL
You know how to make it stop. It's over. Whatever was causing the loops has stopped and you can move on with your life. Maybe it's all left you a little reckless, maybe you simply can't adjust. Maybe you're now a very old soul trapped in a young body.

RANDOMIZE
At any point. Any respawn. Your choice.

Rory sighed. "All right, Missy. Take seventeen and we're entering the endgame again." He knocked on the door which slid open, and stepped into a TARDIS interior.

"You can't do this forever!" A furious woman's voice interrupted him, mixed with a lightning bolt and Rory screamed as it struck him.

"You said that last time. And as I said last time I don't need to. I only need to do this for two days. And you remember it as well as I do." He lunged forward and pressed two buttons on this TARDIS console that River had told him never ever to press together in the Doctor's TARDIS.



And opened his eyes in his own bed, and glanced to his left to see the clock read 7:03 for the eighteenth time. But it wasn't the sound of his alarm clock that had woken him this time; it was a very familiar sound and in the corner of his bedroom familiar a blue box was materialising, drawn by the time anomaly. Amy was of course in New York on a modelling gig so it was just him for now bat seemingly the cavalry had arrived.

[Pretty much canon with the hundreds of alternate takes on the same few historical events anyway let's be real.

Assumed CR, time travel shenanigans, modern AU, Gakuen version, being part of someone else's loop, etc - I'm down for anything!

[We all know who the Madoka is in this scenario, and it ain't Kojuro. Oh no. He's always accepted dying first, dying unhappily if he's lucky, but to have let Masamune down enough that he has to watch him die--

Well, that's unacceptable.

It's unacceptable. It's unacceptable! It's fucking unacceptable! This is the first time, and there is blood on Kojuro's face but it's neither of theirs, another man's, but he roars in anguish and pain when he sees Masamune fall because he knows that kind of fall, knows there won't be mercy shown here. He doesn't even see who did it, he's that fucking blind with pure wounded animal rage. He's running, feet pounding to the still-warm body blue and red, and--

Then he's not running.

Then he's sitting in camp, and his head still hurts from the race of blood, he's still panting, mildly clammy, but he's sitting in camp and Masamune is there in his peripheral vision, right beside him and moving. A vision, maybe. A dream. Ill omen? Whatever. He's reaching over with a vice grip onto whatever he can grab, still trying to catch his breath from that last bolt.
]

...Lord Masamune. Do not fight tomorrow. Please do not fight. [He knows it's a stupid request, but he's still panicking. It'd all been too real to push aside immediately, okay.]
