🕦 "you suck at this by the way. just thought you should know."

(Timeloop ask game)

“You suck at this, by the way. Just thought you should know.”

William winced, hearing the Ashe’s words cut through his thoughts.

He’d come to his realm to sulk after fucking up another timeline.

…Well. “the Ashe” is probably not what he should be using anymore, considering this is the one he’ll be stuck with through however many more timelines there’ll be. Just “Ashe” now, he guesses.

“I am well aware I suck at this, thank you.” William said, turning to face Ashe. Ashe had switched to an outfit more like their hero costume from the first timeline, with the book by their side and the clock necklace around their neck. “...I see you figured out the appearance thing already.”

“...Is that important?” Ashe fidgeted with their sleeve.

“N… No, I just…” William trailed off into muttered gibberish.

“W-Whatever, uh… So, have you tried things other than murder?”

“Wh— Of course I fucking tried things other than murder; it took me a good few timelines to resort to that! Shouldn't you know that??”

“Oh, well sorry my cross-timeline memory recall isn’t perfect!” Ashe crossed their arms.

“Well I don’t know what it’s like for other people!” William’s eyes landed on the clock necklace as he glanced around. The hour hand was moving way faster than an hour per hour.

...Shit, we don’t have much time here, do we, he thought.

“...What??”

“Uh… Just, as a warning, uh… When the necklace hits twelve, it fucking hurts.”

“It already hurts, the fucking ticking—”

“Yeah, yeah, that sucks, but dude it’s like absolutely worse, okay, we can’t stay here much longer.” William shuffled his hands nervously. “Also there should be like, an impending sense of doom and that you have to do something to change the time when it gets near twelve.”

“I already have that.”

“Yeah that’s ‘cause it’s ticking REAL fast!”

“Why do you care!? What does it matter to you if I get hurt??”

“Wh—” William took a step back. “‘Cuz that’d be— Completely antithetical to my whole goal!”

“...What?!”

“I—!...” I’m doing this to save you. “...I need to get going.”

“Wait, no the fuck you don’t—” Ashe reached out to grab William—

And it all disappeared in a flash of red light, as the clock ticked back to 0.
