The Do’s and Irritating Don’t’s of Time Travel

Do / DontEveryone has heard the don’t’s that threaten time travel disasters: “Don’t meet your past self!” “Don’t so much as even sneeze on the timeline,” “Don’t date your great-great grandmother no matter how hot she is!” Don’t, Don’t, Don’t! But time travelers are “Do-ers” not “Don’t-ers” and all that can’t-do talk can really get a time traveler down. Hey, you didn’t companion-up, wait all those years for time travel to be invented, or actually invent time travel to then get all negative about it.

Still, there are hard and fast rules established by the Time Authority that every traveler needs to know. The Time Authority is a multi-century, multi-timeline regulatory agency in charge of keeping the timeline consistent, linear, and like a high-fiber diet for the timestream — regular. A recently “found” guidebook to time travel provides user-friendly tips to understanding the Authority’s laws and how to stay safely on the right side of them. Here we’ll slowly dole out the list of top time-traveling “No-No’s” to keep the traveler on the straight and narrow — non-linearly, of course — slowly in case the TA finds this information harmful to the timeline.

    1. Let your Time Authority assess your reliability as a historic citizen and possible traveler through time.

  1. I have a good suggestion. Since I am in 2015 now, I will travel to the future learn everything about time travel spend few years there then come back to 2015 and help my friends/people in this generation to time travel since there’s not enough traveller in this generation.

    The weird thing is I am 24 years old in 2015 but after the years spend in the future if I were to returned back to 2015 will I still be 24 or older? Time travel only allow us to travel and experience, it doesn’t stop our ageing while travelling I assume.
