The woman had said, sadly-bitterly-laughingly, ale dripping out of her glass to the non-to-clean bar table.
"The moment that anything signifiantly changes is the moment that the timeline splits. There is no changing what happened in a timeline already set. None. None at all."
"So don't you worry about it, OK dearie? You wouldn't be erasing anything, for better or worse. ...Just...Making something new. Different."
Again, for better or worse. Considering the record up to now...possibly quite exceedingly worse.
But still. Still.
To be able to...do things again...
"It's set up so it wouldn't work at all if the---other side---doesn't have the same soul, so you don't have to worry about soul incarpability problems or anything. Personality...I'd suggest a loose merging, that should cause the least problems..."
The woman hiccups. Mutters.
"You'd want it set on a dead-man switch, I suppose? That's how it usually goes with your kind..."
It was rainig on and on and on, and the weariness was palpatible. That must have been why.
"So...You buying, dearie?"
That must have been. It's not like there had been even a smidgen of real belief in what the woman was babbling about, after all.
"I'll even set it on you for free..."
And than. Awakening into the light.
