THE TIME-TRAVEL MEME


Somehow, someway, you've mastered time travel! Well done, genius. Maybe it was accidental, maybe you knew exactly what you were doing all along, perhaps you've even been at it a while!

How to play
① Tag in with your name/series/date. The latter should be from your character's perspective! For example, Jane Doe/That Oldie Zombie Series/1945
② Go to RNG and roll 1-10. That's your scenario!
③ Tag around!
④ Have fun. :)


Scenarios

① Trapped. Something doesn't seem to be quite right with the machine anymore ...
② Long Lost Lovers. You're back in their arms and nothing can separate you, not even time and space itself.
③ War. You've arrived in the middle of a fight/battlefield. Unless you intended for it to happen, this isn't looking so good.
④ Sickness. Did that person mention the Black Death?! Better find your friend and get out of the Dark Ages before you start coughing.
⑤ Party. Lucky you! There's a hootnanny going down in the past/future and it looks like you're just in time to grab a drink.
⑥ Missing. They stole your first time machine, but now you've built another and the chase is on!
⑦ Date Night. Nothing says 'oh, Mr. Darcy, oh!' like a romantic blast into the past or a frolic into the future. Whichever historical event is going on around you now, however amazing, it's all foreplay in the grand scheme of things.
⑧ Lost. It's years ahead of the times for one of you, but things seem normal enough to the other person.
⑨ You Dun Fucked Up, Kid. Which year is it? Which world is this, for that matter? Shit. Looks like you didn't just build a time machine, you're in a whole other universe ... !
⑩ Roller's Choice. Pick your own.

Noes! I'm working hard, I swear!

"London? No, no, erm, quite further away, actually. 'm bit of a traveler, although I do like England. My actual home's gone, so I travel around a bit on my own... sometimes with friends." He shrugs and realize he was somewhat dumping on this stranger.

"Annnyway...!" He absentmindedly scratched the back of his head as he walked with her to the other side of the street.

TOO LATE! YOU GONNA GET IN SO MUCH TROUBLE!

"Oh." Amy frowned sympathetically. "I'm sorry to hear that."

She didn't have anything planned for this early afternoon, and she was a bit hungry. "I might just join you, actually."

*cries in corner*

[nevermindtherunning]

"Yeah?" He glances over to her and his smile widens. "Brilliant! Let's go!"

And without thinking about it, it takes a hold of her free hand, tugs forward, and quickly weaves in and out of the crowd. "Down around this corner, yeah?"

*Stares at* Meh.

[wears_skirts]

Eyes wide, Amy tenses as he starts tugging along the somewhat crowded streets. There was an odd sense of familiarity that she couldn't quite put her finger on. "Em-" Amy pulls her hand out of his. "No, straight on."

Rude! (and lol, your icon is appropriate for that)

[nevermindtherunning]

"Right!" He's too caught up in his excitement that he doesn't even realize her pulling away from him, and once there, he throws the door open for her.

"After you..." And the he realizes he's going to eat lunch with a girl who's name he had yet to ask. "Sorry, what's your name?" It wasn't an uncommon occurance, as he was quite familiar with mingling with strangers.

It killed me to write Williams. IT FEELS WRONG.

Smiling tightly at the strange man, Amy walked through the doors. Already having a look around for something to eat. She missed the food from home quite a bit, a lot of things were different here but she had grown sued to the differences for the most part. Though she missed her shows and the internet, a lot.

She looked up from the selection of crisps at his question. "Amy. Amy Williams."

It does seem weird

[nevermindtherunning]

"Hello, Amy! I'm the Doctor." He smiles before taking a step inside, mouth slightly hung open in wonderment of the people around them.

"What do you recommend?" He finally glances back over to her.

[wears_skirts]

At the mention of his name, Amy immediately stiffens. Did he just say...? "What?" She managed to choke out, tears welling up in her eyes.

[nevermindtherunning]

He looks back, "Erm, 'what do you recommend'?" He sees her looking a little emotional, and his brows furrow slightly. "You alright?" Glancing around them, he tugs her off to the side to a table where no one was sitting. "Amy? You alright?"

[wears_skirts]

She doesn't answer him because she couldn't. She had come to terms with the fact that she would never see him again and here he was. Though clearly he had no idea who she was, and he looked completely different so she could only assume this was a past version of him. That left her with mixed emotions to be quite honest.

"...It's really you?" She asked after a minute, not fully aware of the people staring at the pair or the fact that tears are falling down her face.

[nevermindtherunning]

The realization struck. She knows him, and he either had met her briefly or she's from his future. Blimey, how often is that going to keep happening? It wasn't long ago that he was in the library with Professor Song and that ripped open a bag of mixed emotions for him.

"So you know me? I... don't think you're from my current timeline." Although he did happen to meet other people out of order, such as Sally Sparrow on the street outside that shop.

And without thinking, he leans forward and wipes away a stray tear. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, I had no idea."

FUCK YOU FOR THESE FEELS. D: also you should go on aim. mmyep

[wears_skirts]

He looked older than what she was used to, which threw her off a bit. It wasn't until he was reaching forward to wipe away the tears on her face that she realised she was crying and became aware of everyone staring at them. But especially her. "How old are you?"

;_; sowwie! And sorry again, I went to bed after that tag.But I'll be around tonight some after work

[nevermindtherunning]

Now that was a question he wasn't expecting, and a hint of confusion was displayed on his face. "...903? Or is it 904 now?" So he must've talked about his age with her in the future?

"I'm not who you're familiar with..." And he finally pulls away looking a bit conflicted himself. The prophecy was out there, and he was trying to avoid it and not think about it, but little things such as this were making it all too real.
