Dude, he already threatened to commit suicide, and Aurora stopped him. He knows better now.

Also, having FJ commit suicide would be a totally lame ending. Have some faith in me, Em! >.<

Unless DJ secretly wants to see Pansy Jimmy die... DUN DUN DUNNNNNN

I think that would be counter productive. That would be eliminating his chances of ever coming back, unless he's moved his consciousness into an artificial container (DJ Robot anyone?).

Looking back, the attitudes I had last time I was at IDOJ demonstrate how immature I was back then. Even if I never said it, I always thought of Neutron At War as being better than TOSOT, but in retrospect, NAW was just a bunch of cliches mixed together at random, while TOSOT actually has a coherent idea it's trying to express, and might even rise above its source material.

Wait...TOSOT has a coherent idea it's trying to express? That's news to me. ;)

Well, technically, Aurora threatened to kill herself if he committed suicide. Not sure if that counts as "smexy". Probably something more along the lines of "well-played" and "dysfunctional".

Also smexy

Very clever Aurora, as always. Have I told you that I love the name Aurora? :) So I find it cool that you choose it for future Cindy, I mean it only makes sense since she's pure awesome and a little crazy.

Okay, stopping the ramble. But, lovely work as always dear Mara. *If I haven't said so all ready which I'm sure I have*

Ok, here are my guesses,
A: Aurora will die, it's going to happen or DJ will die, you know it will work like that, the surviver will probably lose it and start becoming or re-becoming "Destroyer of worlds."
B: Kids go back, so that it plays into canon, somehow everyone except Jimmy and Cindy forget about it, or just forget.
C: We find out why Qunlin was at the party when it all started, what changed the time stream?
Feel free to erase my post if I get it right and you don't want it ruined. ;)

Actually, what I meant is that Libby, sheen and Carl lose their memory of it, however; Jimmy and Cindy do not, thus lstn makes sense. Only they know, and they are far too afraid to let anything like it to happen, thus the hate side of the relationship drops.

Why would it be necessary for the former three to lose their memories? Also, what would account for Jimmy and Cindy remembering, and Libby, Sheen and Carl not? This sounds like a plot hole waiting to happen.

~*Mara*~ = ^.^ =

Well, what do carl, sheen and libby benifet from the story:
Carl: Jimmy and Cindy are bad people, I should hate them. (possilby something about being goth?)
Libby: Jimmy and Cindy are bad people, I should hate them. (tea and eastern clothing is good?)
Sheen:Jimmy and Cindy are people, I should hate them; however, (Prepare sheen voice) FUTURE LIBBY IS HOT!! <3

The other three don't seem to have any real benefit of knowing what happened. other than being mentally scared by the things they saw.
Also, I think Libby knowing of TOSOT would ruin LSTN...
Maybe they could ask jimmy to get rid of the the memories, maybe in a(greatly lengthened) scene like this:

Carl: Jimmy, I saw some things I didn't want to see
Jimmy: I know what you mean. (Jimmy's mom? lol)
Libby: Yeah, I'm with Carl too, that whole "(Place scary plot point here)" thing just haunts me.
Sheen: Maybe you can make a mind eraser thing.
Jimmy: Thats a good idea, With a phase transducer and a flux capacitor I .....
*day later
Jimmy: I give you the TOSOT mind drain 4200!
Group :yay!
*Sheen, Carl and Libby go though the portal thing and fall right on their face in a sleep on the other size.
*Cindy walks up to it(fearful), turns to jimmy.
*Insert epic J/C monologue here, end with hug
Cindy: I don't think I can do it....
Jimmy:To be honest, I don't think I can either.
Both: I WANT TO BELIEVE!
*Insert X-files theme or Chemical Brothers- Believe, here.
At this point you could place an ending scene, in the library, hehe.
See what I mean? Don't forget these are 12-13 year old kids, not adults, they still can get fears.
