Replicollission: somehow rip a hole that pulls the Present Party back into the timeline proper.

why can't we have a paradox in the temporal mesh? there would be so many shenanigans![]()
>Fred: Fall through the time stream and end up in some random place.
But it would kill everyone everywhere! See, if you take out a power grid or whatever it is that gets power to places, you also take out all of the electronic devices that depend on the power grid for energy, and the spacetime continuum is like the powergrid for the worlds.
(Also, clearing up an incredibly confusing point: The SPACETIME CONTINUUM is the purple place where you can access the worlds. The TIME STREAM is a world's path through the CONTINUUM. And the TEMPORAL MESH is the breathable purple stuff that makes up the SPACETIME CONTINUUM.)
Anyway,

FRED looks down into the SPACETIME CONTINUUM. "So," he finally says, "what happened to Past Me? Or Past Bob?"
Party: solemnly swear never to fuck with time travel again unless you have a plan.

Both GEORGE and JENNY get up and begin talking, only to realize they were saying the same thing: "Let's stop fucking around with time travel, just to be safe." Everyone agrees, except for PAST FRED (who is elsewhere), PAST BOB (who is dead), and the TIMS, who are noticeably absent.
The TIMS return with four other versions of the PARTY.
GEORGE addresses the FOUR NEW PARTIES:

Except the Tims. The Tims can stay.
>Habba: Appear and blow up all 4 parties in one shot.

Huh. This is sure a lot of TIMS.
HABBA'S SHIP suddenly swoops in and drops a BOMB on the extra GEORGES, FREDS, BOBS, and JENNIES.
> Awkward silence.
> Fred: break said silence by suggesting that everyone pick a spot to reenter the normal timeline so you can stop fucking with this paradox shit.

>4 Tims: Find a center point. Each run away in a cardinal direction for ten seconds, turn around, and run towards eachother at TOP FUCKING speed.
>Everyone: Board Habba's ship.
George: Grimly realise that since the destruction of all the other hims, he hasn't disappeared. "Damnit Tim! That is not how I wanted to die!"
-Proceed with shooting random Tims in the head.
Jennie: Stop George before he finishes off the last, and present, Tim.
Everyone pauses when the OTHER PARTIES die, and the silence is broken by FRED. "We should probably all get back to our normal spots on the timeline now. If we keep doing this all banded together in a group, sooner or later we're just gonna make another paradox. And another, and another, et cetera."
The PARTIES organize.
The PRESENT PARTY heads back to the abandoned DELOREAN. "So," TIM says, "what were we doing again?"
Other partys: show up every so often, even in the background doing unrelated things, possibly waveing to/waved at party members with no specified action.
"Err... saving Jenny's dad, I think?"

wait, is that a hole filled with dead versions of the party?
