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.

[Ralph knows that Felix will worry about the matter until it's solved, but he thinks that that worry will be less than when Felix finds out what's really going on with Ralph.

But there's a much more pleasant topic and Ralph absolutely beams when he replies. He thinks of Vanellope as a younger sister and he can't hide the pride in his voice.]

That's right, she's a great President! Everybody's been happier than ever and there's not been many problems at all! And if something does go wrong, she finds the best solution for everyone.

Even a couple of the other Nicelanders decided to pick up Sugar Rush as their new game. It's so big and they can watch the races or stay out of the way if they want to. It's pretty great, really.

Good! I know she was doing well when I... [Left isn't the right word, but he can't think of something nicer than that that isn't 'was suddenly forced to disconnect into darkness'] left, but that was a while ago.

I want to see the Nicelanders if... [A little shift, frowning.] Even if they blame me for what happened. I know it's not my fault but because of both of us they almost lost their home one time then... then for good.

[The likelihood of them ever finding their home again is almost non-existent so they have to figure out a future all together or... alone.]

[Ralph nods, still smiling.] Yeah, she's been able to keep everything going smoothly.

[He grows more serious and gently places a giant hand on Felix's shoulder.] Nobody blames you, Felix, I promise.

[Everybody knew that it wasn't Felix's fault that Hero's Duty had suddenly gotten unplugged. The removal of the game had been sudden and traumatic for all the characters in the arcade. Besides, the Nicelanders had liked Felix too much to even think about holding a grudge. They'd probably be more glad than anything to see him back, especially since they thought he had died.

Ralph nods slightly, looking thoughtful.] Let's see, I know there's a couple in Sugar Rush, and I think there's a few in Street Fighter that like watching the fights, but I'm not sure on everyone else...

[He snaps his fingers when a sudden thought comes to him.] Hey! Tapper might know, some of the people from the other games must have seen them.
