The ability to restart parts of my life from a save file, starting from like 16.
The first time you activate your power, you are unknowingly stuck in a time loop. Each time you reactivate the power, the loop gets shorter from the point in time you restarted. Basically the movie Groundhog Day but the time loop partially depends on you:
The image made me think of this one weird "song" I used to listen to somewhat when I used to do nitrous oxide, years ago.
Preview doesn't seem to be working, but it's the same illustration.
So long as I'm aware of this, I have no problem with it. If I get to learn and advance.
You become aware of your ability the first time you reach the end of the time loop.
Read Peter F Hamilton's Void saga.
Literally would not have the time for that on an average day. Will see if I can get Vuzix glasses 2 so I can covertly read it at work.
Get the audiobooks. Listen to it in the car. But yeah, one of the plot points is basically exactly this, where people can effectively have a "save point" in life. I won't spoil it, but it's great.
16? Why limit yourself? Why not go back to like two years old and shock everyone with your maturity?
To avoid unpleasant things. Such as being stuck being a teen, my parents freaking out and being worried for my mental health, my brain undeveloping too much, having some snotlings as my peers, so on.
I figured 16 was the last best time I could have changed things, and there was so much Nostalgia from then. I'd get my hands on certain consoles when they mattered...and create the life experiences I always wanted.
Except having a 30 year old brain would mean I'd try to bang the teachers instead of well, my peers. Obviously, even time travel can't fix certain things you didn't do. But I don't care about that.
I would 100% enjoy Pokemom Platinum though. Knowing this is when it was actually relevant.
My early 20's are where the good and most epic stuff was at. Combined with the most awful. But that's the age I would like to be at I guess. Being stuck at 26 or 28 I would be at my peak in some ways if I had time travel, and I like that. But early twenties like 22-23 means more options and flexibility. So I would stop there, and keep looping till perfection I guess. Learning everything there is to know.
