Digital doodles featuring Arataka Reigen from Mob Psycho 100 and Kara Dox from Story Thieves by James Riley, drawn as a Blasian girl with curly hair in a bob and bright blue eyes wearing short overalls and an orange T-shirt.
Reigen sits in a chair smoking, thinking to himself, "Man, I'm bored. This time travel stuff isn't as exciting as I thought. The only problems people have for me are just phone issues or accidentally deleted files, nothing to do with paradoxes or anomalies. At this rate, I'm just tech support. Guess I should call it quits. It's not like there's all that much need for any time travel related business when the technology only became known to the public just a few years back. So what should I try next? I guess being a PI sounds fun, but I've heard they mostly do investigations on cheating spouses."
Off screen, someone says, "Um, excuse me? I saw your sign and I was hoping you could help me........"
Reigen puts out his cigarette in an ash tray and says with a smile, "Of course, come in! How may I–"
He frowns as he trails off, "...help you..."
Kara stands nervously at the door, a hand to her chest. Reigen thinks, "It's just a kid......"
Reigen goes up to her with an unamused look and asks, "All right, young lady, what do you want?"
Off screen, Kara says, "Well, you see, yesterday my future self showed up in my room and told me that I'm destined to destroy the world because I'm immune to paradoxes since my mom gave birth to me in a time bubble."
Reigen says with a very confused expression, "Huh?"
Kara continues, "She also said that I'm wanted by the Time Security Agency because of all that so she gave me a time bracelet so I can try to stop my future from happening in any way I can, but she also said that she and all my other future selves tried everything they could but nothing changes our future since we're immune to paradoxes and can't change our fate because of that."
Reigen says, "HUH???"
Kara continues, "And my dad just got arrested by the TSA this morning and I didn't know what else to do, but since you deal with paradoxes, I was hoping you could help me....."
Reigen sits on a coffee table in front of Kara, who sits on a chair. Reigen has a hand on his shoulder as she looks up at him in awe as he says, "Your immunity to paradoxes is just a trait of yours, just like people who are fast, can sing well, or have strong body odor. It doesn't define who you are. You get to decide your own destiny– not some TSA agent or anyone else for that matter. So if you don't wanna destroy the world, then you won't."
Rip high school me, you would've loved Mob Psycho 100
