We're already in some magical land that makes our dreams come true - mostly the bad ones - so let's think about the impossible some more.

[Leonard may be calling it "impossible" mostly to heckle one specific Brit, given he's travelled through time himself, but maybe it will also flush out other time travellers. May be interesting.]

If you could travel to any point in history, where and when would you go, and why?

Also, if you could travel to any point in your own personal history, your lifetime... Same questions.

Would you try to change anything?

[He has experience with trying and the resulting failure too.]

Comments

[catchacold]

Yeah?

Who'd that be?

[cuteshit]

Think his name was Nate something?

[Some American name, he doesn't remember.]

He turned into metal when he got here.

[catchacold]

Nancy, yeah.

[Look, he's fairly sure it is Nate and not Nancy, but Mick has said Nancy more often and it's a hell of a lot funnier.]

He's on my team. Kinda.

[cuteshit]

Nancy, right.

[Hey, all those English names sound pretty much the same to him.]

So you're friends?

[catchacold]

Haven't really spent much time with him. Kinda associates?

Let's say, he got on the team after my time.

[cuteshit]

Huh. Coworkers then, but only kind of. Think you'll see much of each other here?

[catchacold]

It's possible, he's popping up every now and then.

Maybe I'll invite him to the next jam session.

[There has never been a jam session so far, but he doesn't see that stopping him.]

[cuteshit]

You guys have jam sessions? You're a band?

[He takes things very literally sometimes.]

[catchacold]

...close enough.

Y'know, we probably could be. I'm sure Rip would be down for it. Band tour through time. We could play Woodstock.

[cuteshit]

Sounds like a fun way to spend the summer.

[catchacold]

You play any instruments? What kinda music are you into, kid?

[cuteshit]

I like all kinds of stuff. I do play the drums,
I had to pick them up to help out a friend, but it was pretty fun. I'd do it again, maybe see if I can get a little better at it.
Ever heard of Rise Kujikawa or Kanami Mashita?

[catchacold]

I'd suggest you play with us, but you and Mick seem like oil and fire. Although that might help the beat, what do I know?

Nah, sorry. Who are they?

[cuteshit]

Probably not a good idea. I don't see us getting along anytime soon.

They're both idols. Rise's a good friend of mine, she's the one I picked up drums for.
She needed backup for a show. The kind of music they do is pretty catchy, too. Infectious.

[catchacold]

Idols... So, famous musicians? I'm guessing.

What style of music do they play?

[cuteshit]

Idols sing and dance and sometimes do commercials and movies and stuff. They do a little bit of everything.
I guess you'd probably call it pop music where you're from? Real upbeat stuff.
Not really 'manly' to like it, but I don't care.
Rise's my friend, so I like listening and supporting her.

[catchacold]

Good for you. Never care about what anyone else thinks you should like or do. Be yourself. Even if that means pop music.

Especially for your friend. I mean, I've listened to hours of Captain and Tennille for my partner.

[cuteshit]

Took me a long time to learn that lesson, but I'm real glad I finally did.

Who the hell are Captain and Tennille?

[catchacold]

...suffice to say you ain't missing out not knowing them.

[cuteshit]

Enough said.
