9/26/22: Time Loop Powered by Love

Margo and Jack had been happy together for many years, before they fell into the time loop.

They had a strong foundation to their relationship. They communicated. Both put in more than 50%. It was easy, being with each other. Each found it hard to imagine a life without the either.

From the start, they knew that the time loop ran on the potential energy of their love. It said so, right on the machine, which had apparated into Margo’s garage at the start of the first loop.

This was enough for them, for a while. They lived a lifetime and a half within the timeloop. Escaping wound up being tougher than expected.

“What if we just pretend to not like each other anymore?” Margo said, looking at the machine.

“Shhh! It’ll hear!” said Jack.
