	» I ship it. » Except I think if there was something with Gale, Walt would have been killed no matter what. Jesse too. » Fucking box cutter. » I wonder if I'm going to be stuck here for a long time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	» That... is a fair point. Maybe he was playing the long game. Going to kill Walt and his whole family years later at some sort of hugely depressing pool party. » (Presumably minus Walt Jr, whose fondness for breakfast made him too adorable to poison.) » Somewhere else you'd rather be?

	» Walt jr. had a big breakfast so he skipped the poison pool bbq. » If we go back home when we leave here. I die. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

» Sounds legit.
» I mean, I also don't want Skylar to die. Or Holly. Or Marie. Or Hank. Or Gomez. Or Jesse. And I didn't want Mike to die. Or Gale. Or Gus. And I really didn't want Max to die, even though his death was... really all we saw of him.
» Basically, I really didn't want anyone to die except the Salamancas. Even then it was more like, no opinion.
» In that respect, this has not been my show.

» Maybe. If we go back home to exactly the same point we left, and don't remember anything that took place, then yes. But... I don't know that we do.
» Do you want to go back?

» I don't think Breaking Bad is anyone's show. It's painful to watch.
» But basically we all want Walter to die. But all the flash-forwards are.... ageing me. I think they actually are. Not even soul-purchased portrait magic can protect against Breaking Bad's stress.

» No, no I don't think I do. It was a very unhappy time in my life. It was also the end of it.
» I think I'd like a few more years.

» It really is.
» Walter and Tuco are/were pretty much the only two I have actively wanted to die.
» Don't spoil me. Unless Jesse says, "bitch." He hasn't done it yet, and I'm really not doing well on "Betting Bad."

» You never know. Maybe you came from some sort of Dorian Gray AU fanfic universe where you get your soul back and everything turns out okay?
» I'd like you to have a few more years, too.

» Is it horrible that I don't really want to go home, either?
» There's already another Tony Stark at home who has to deal with the constant apocalypses. It's not like they need me.
» This place isn't home, and it isn't ideal
» But if a few more of my friends showed up, I don't know what the point of going back would be.
» The sense of purpose is nice, I admit. But it feels like all we're ever doing is running around looking for shoestrings and bubblegum to hold a broken universe together.
» Anyway.

» I found -
» Actually this is sort of strange.
» I found a podcast like that, where Dorian Gray is a person who knew Oscar Wilde and who inspired his book.
» Maybe I'm the character from the book, but maybe there is another me out there with a better chance.
» Who doesn't have to teach his readership a lesson.

» But then the podcast goes off the rails and apparently I'm nearly Sherlock Holmes' assassin.
» Well, I think this place has been good for you. You have the chance to live at a different pace. Who would you like to see?

» There aren't many people from my life I'd want. But then, I burn bridges.

» Really.
» That's pretty weird.
» I'm sure there is, you know. I mean, having some personal experience with meeting other versions of myself, I can only assume that there are also an infinite number of Dorian Grays in this infinite number of universes. Some of whom are not fictional, and some of whom... maybe didn't have to teach their readership a lesson.
» Maybe some of whom even got to live the life they set out to live.
» I'm not sure if it helps or hurts, knowing that other versions of you don't have the problems you have. In my experience, the answer is "both."

» ... sure, of course. Killing Sherlock Holmes. Why not?

» It's been tough to get used to, but I think I've gotten into the swing.
» I'd like for Rhodey to show up. He's taking his time. A few other old friends, maybe.
» And sometimes, I think I would like to see Happy again. But I don't know if I could... do it.

» Yeah, little bit. Of course, some of your bridges showed up anyway.
» Is there anyone? Someone you'd like to see, or meet?
