Time travel




time travel meme
To take a trip in time - down memory lane, revisit past regrets, or somewhen entirely different. Whether it's a time loop, a science experiment gone wrong, or a wish...

If you had the chance to time travel, would you take it?

Luka -OC- OtA

[personal profile] forrestertailor 2023-12-01 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[Very fruitful meme for this OC. Luka has been dead and kickin' since approx. 5000 BCE, and he has no expiration date. He remembers most of recorded history, and has been a warrior, gossip and slut the entire time. Time travel for him is a very literal ride down memory lane. Throw a dart at a history book and he'll have something to say about the period it hits!]

Hi! I feel these two randy immortals seem like they ought to be destined to meet at *some* point in history - what do you think? Any preference?

Sounds fun on a bun! I only know a little about Dr. Who or Torchwood but I always like Jack, I can def see these two being perfunctory friends in the age of space travel. Luka is an old man so he’ll definitely think the starship runs on prayers and that a ray gun could only be used by guys named Ray.

Ha! How about we have Jack in a spaceship with a ray gun from the future but having time travelled to some point in history? I'm better at historical periods than trying to make up future stuff (plus it makes to start further back just in case we want them to ever meet again in the right order). Pompeii? Victorian Britain? World War I? 1941 just before Jack meets the Doctor and Rose in his first episode, "The Empty Child"? Or if you have any other favourite period of history, I can almost certainly make a case for Jack having been there! :-)

Captain Jack Harkness - Doctor Who/Torchwood - OTA

[personal profile] forever_jack 2023-12-01 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Jack can be in virtually any time you fancy, either as a young Time Agent, a slightly older (but still very young) conman, or as a much older post-Doctor time-traveller. If your character isn't a time-traveller or a historic character, he can also facilitate the time-travel by inadvertently bringing them with him on his travels...

[it's been three thousand years since I watched Torchwood, but I enjoyed it a lot, and does Jack want to meet in a bar or something and unload about all the shit he's been through?

I admit to shamelessly shipping it and am fine with it going further lol]

[personal profile] forever_jack 2023-12-02 01:18 pm (UTC)(link)
(Sounds great! I have to admit, I have a hard time getting my head around Jack/Ten these days, since I feel Jack has finally got over the hopeless longing for the Doctor that kind of characterised their relationship. However, he obviously still feels a lot for the Doctor and I'm very happy to fling them together and see what happens! :-D

I'm unfortunately off out now for quite a while but happy to set something up later, or to tag in if you want to start something off?)

[It's the strangest thing...

[He's at the pier. "Nothing out of the ordinary" except for there is something extraordinary about that...man.

[Armin is both positive that he's seen him before, and positive that he hasn't. He doesn't realize how rude he must look, staring at him like that. He's seated on a bench with a book open in his lap, but his eyes are on--]

Eren...?

[The sound of his own voice surprises him. Who's "Eren"? Why did he say that...?]
dreamsofwings: (21)

[personal profile] dreamsofwings 2023-12-03 03:04 am (UTC)(link)
[ Eren doesn't have a concrete grasp of how he got here. It's just time, which means so little to him, the way the world changes and he doesn't. Can't, maybe. His tie to the Paths keeps him from moving on to whatever is supposed to happen when you die. Maybe that thing that caused titans in the first place continuing to exist keeps him tethered.

Maybe this is the hell that Armin spoke of so long ago. It could have been yesterday. It could be right now.

No.

This is…different. There are tall buildings looming somewhere behind them, back away from the shore. Eren is vaguely aware of technology as it changes, though he has no need for it himself.

It took a lot to even have a body, to stand here. He doesn't have Ymir's power and doesn't want it.

But hell wasn't supposed to be alone, right? Armin said they'd be together forever there, didn't he? Is that how Eren can be here now? He's not entirely sure, but he finally managed to do it, to stand here real and solid.

He's been staring out at the oceans, hair loose, hands in his pockets. The breeze blows his hair across his face at first as he turns.

[This guy...

[How...?]

I'm sorry. I don't think-- Have we met? How...do you know my name?

[Not sure if she'd necessarily agree to time travelling--probably have to be some sort of random Quirk/something accident thing---but could see it end up being a nightmare scenario with past regrets tbh.

Would she do what she did knowing what she does now or do go a different way about it if it could make things not as bad? Or if it's someone else's past regrets would she leave it alone?]

[Wanting to refresh after his latest trip to Gallifrey, the Doctor set a course for the museum planet Rastor, hoping that taking in the sights would help take his mind off of the whole "presidential assassination" incident.

Unfortunately (or fortunately - it did help to liven up the tour), this happened to be the point in time where the giant alien ants known as Zarbi attacked the planet. Thanks to the planet-wide intercom system, a large quantity of snacks, and a rather clever (in his opinion, anyway) use of a large glass sculpture, he was able to get them to leave this world.

Having had his fill of museums for one day, the Doctor heads back to the TARDIS, only to discover...]


It's gone!

[He pats the space where it had been, but his hand passes through the air.]

I swear, that's the last time I activate the HADS...

[Sure, the Hostile Action Displacement System was useful in theory - it kept him from materializing in the middle of a war zone - but it wasn't much use if it activated while he wasn't in the TARDIS.

Just when he resigns himself to waiting for it to return, he spots it on the other side of the room.]


Ah, there you are, old girl! Don't know what makes one side of the room safer than another, but I suppose you have your reasons.

[Little does the Doctor know that this isn't his TARDIS. ...Okay, technically it is, give or take a few centuries, but he hasn't gotten to that point in his life yet.]

((OoC: hope this is okay; I haven't seen Wild Blue Yonder yet, but I'm fine with either 10 or 14))
