No, seriously, stay out Tobias. Timeline integrity bullshit going on here. With that out of the way, I just found out, via bullshit, that Maria (our Witch) and Jen (our Bard) are gonna start showing each other their stabs pretty soon. Much as I'd like to just sit back and watch the catfight, I'm getting the feeling I might want to do something about it. Particularly since it ends with Maria taking a dirtnap, and I'm kind of fond of the musclebound freak. Normally I'd go ask our resident veteran for advice, but Tobias and Jen do not get along well. I'm a bit worried that he might leap to conclusions and just assume she's gone PK or something. Don't want to make this a threeway.

Well, you're the Time player. Find out what led to the two fighting and try to stop it. Point out your dead timeselves and say that they not getting along caused it.
Frankly, though, we need more information on the why to give you any specific assistance.

Also, does it end with Maria dead-dead, or just experiencing a death? Because if you can use the situation to get her 'tiered...well, silver lining in every cloud, right?
Dead...well. Figure out what started this whole sequence of events. Tossing doomed selves at people worked for some kid, so maybe it'll work for you too?

One blindingly obvious thing I forgot, possibly because I am a moron, is to try and keep those two apart. Can't kill each other if they can't reach each other.

Wow, seriously? This much time has passed for you folks since I posted? How the hell does Tobias post so much to this thing?
No, wait, he has that stupid implant in his neck. He's probably connected 24/7. Whatever.
Done some digging. Apparently, things are already in motion. Specifically, they started at this incredibly dorky little get together that Tobias threw for no apparent reason. Jen and Maria had this big fight, though neither of them is saying what started it, and Tobias had to Hope-push them both into different oceans. Jen's planning something in order to, and I quote, "make things even". She's... kind of hard to talk to when she gets like that. I told her that Maria's already down a life (Note to Maria: You're a Witch now, punching things in the face should not be your first method of conflict resolution) but I'm no sure if she even noticed.
Hmm... Tiering. I think I can work with that. In fact, yeah, definitely got a workable plan. Thanks.

So.
Some asshole (I'm talking about you, wizenedLuminance) decided they'd drop Tobias a link to this thread in the chat.
You've got three guesses what happened, and the first two don't count.
For the sake of all the idiots out there (again, talking about you here, wizenedLuminance), I'll spell it out.
Tobias, who didn't have exactly the best opinion of Jen in the first place, decided he was going to leap to conclusions, assume that she'd gone PK and beat down Jen's shapely ass before she could off Maria. I suspect the Strife might have been egging him on.
Maria, who he'd been UU'ing with lately, got all curious and followed.
And Jen? Apparently she's been grinding or some other shit that gave her one hell of a boost to her ARC. Because she managed to make it a tie. Of the 'everyone loses' sort. (Note to self: investigate the fuck out of that, she should not have been that strong - I've seen what Tobias can do.)
So by basically doubling the number of timeloops I have going in this shithole session (and again, fuck you wizenedLuminance) I managed to accelerate the plans I had in place anyway and expand them to accommodate Tobias' wrinkly old man ass to boot. End result is, we now have three godtiers instead of three corpses. Or will do, once I'm done running around making everything happen.
Still, I have a literal mountain of dead mes piled up here. Because, you know, there were so fucking many way for this go horribly, horribly wrong.
Also, if any of wizenedLuminance's (again, fuck that asshole) co-players ever read this? Kick his ass for me. Thanks
EDIT Also, sorry if I'm a little more abrasive than usual here. Kind of a a little ticked off here, and I think it's kind of justifiable.

No need to apologize. It's hard 13eing time when no one listens to you or tells you what's going on. Even more so when you care about the other people in your session and can't just let them kill one another.
Nice to hear you and your friends are safe for now.

If it makes you feel any better, everybody continued to yell at him after you left.
