Bart is back in bar. He's lookign slightly bewildered, something was weird about that transit. Deja vu, huh? First thing he does is zips away, then to an empty table, a book now in his hands. Ahhh, his spoilers. Lessee what i missed....

"Bart, do not talk about the future with ANYONE. Avoid Snow White. Violet is upset with us, not our fault, it was all Kon. Wallys daughter is in the bar, she might not be what she seems."

Bart shakes his head.

"Weird stuff."

And there is a chocolate shake in front of him, as he looks around for someone to speak with.

*Snow is now quite thouroughly confused*

Now, this is what I find confusing . . . you're nothing like you were the other day. From the conversation I had, I doubt I'd recive an apology . . . maybe you should keep an eye out for people with mind control potions. Or evil alternates from another world, considering this is Milliways.

*mun is now claiming that Snow caught an episode of classic Trek at some point, has some degree of evidence to back her up*

Bart shrugs.

"I don't always come here consecutively miss White. In fact, i just walked into the door after a week at home. So, it was probably a future me."

Still. The difference is noticable. I'm having trouble figuring out what would happen to cause you to act this way, even in the future.

"Bad stuff happens?"

Bart shrugs

"I could've had something really bad happen to me. I don't say."

Still. It really wasn't like you.

He nibbles his lip

"Maybe an older me? Like when I'm five or six?"

. . . five or six?

Bart blushes.

"Er... you didn't know? My growth was accelerated thanks to my speed. I've lived through the equivalent of 16 years, but I've only actually exsisted real time for four."

Oh.

. . . I suppose that explains a lot, really. All things considered, you're quite mature.

Bart nods.

"I spent the first 2 years, 12 equivalent, ina virtual reality machine. Life still doesn't always feel real to me. S'why i was called Impulse, because I didn't see the need to think about things, i always had another Life, like a game."

That does explain quite a lot. I'd say this enforces my initial thought on your relationship with Violet; I'm not saying there's no chance, moreso that you should wait; develop a friendship, first and foremost, and be certain of where you stand before you decide to make any sort of commitment.

On the other hand, if the you that was here a couple days ago turns out to be from this bar's timeline, I'll have serious objections.

Bart nods eagerly

"Oh yeh, i don't plan on doing anything major til shes at least eighteen. That way we'll have had at least four years together, to make sure our love is truly true."

Oh, the optimism of youth.

Sometimes it takes longer than that to be certain . . . . still, it's good to know you're putting some time into it.

*as he's willing to wait the entire length of his lifetime over again, Snow takes the factor into consideration*

Bart smiles

"Is there anythign i can do to help reassue you? You're acceptance means a lot to me, you're like a second mother to Vi...."

He is NOT going to get into Barry being her second father, cause, eww?

*Snow gives a small smile*

Have the other you be from an entirely different timeline is a good start . . . I'm giving you a chance; all we can do is wait and see.

I've seen firsthand just how certain things seem in hindsight . . . I hope things don't end badly, but the only thing that can make me certain is to wait and see how things turn out.

Bart nods.

"Er...is violet in her room, do you know? I hven't seen her for a week...."

The other-you was being . . . odd. She's gone to visit a friend's dimension for the time being, but she'll be back soon enough.

Bart nods.

"Okay. Thank you Miss White."

No problem. Just . . . be careful.

Bart nods.

"I will be miss white."

And he dashes off.
