On deciding on a canon point

[luckyseven]

You had me worried there for a while - I was starting to think you'd never pick one. You're absolutely sure about this though, right? Depending on where you send me, you might not get to change your mind.

And if we ever do see Alicia... there'll be so much she and I won't have experienced together. Just keep that in mind, alright?

For both of us.

And what point in time have they chosen to take you from?

[luckyseven]

Assuming they stick to it, it'll be from right after we take back the Great Vasel Bridge. It's early in the war, but they're concerned about using a later point.

[He hesitates]

They're... not exactly optimistic I'll see Alicia, wherever I go. So the thought is earlier might be better.

[avid_historian]

I see. These possible time differences can be problematic.

[luckyseven]

Yeah, no kidding. All it takes is for anyone I know to show up from farther along, and suddenly I've lost a lot of my history with them.

It's... a lot to wrap my head around.

[avid_historian]

As troublesome as it might be, there are some possible advantages as well.

[Well, there is one day in their history that he wishes could be taken back. The prospect of their relationship as it once was...]

... yeah, that's true too.

Still, if it were up to me, I'd take the later point and everything that goes with it. The good and the bad.

[avid_historian]

It figures you'd say that, but I can't really disagree. It seems wrong to have those memories taken away. [Or escape responsibility for your actions in his case.]

[luckyseven]

Exactly. Everything we've been through helps make us who we are - I don't want to lose a single thing.
