Benefits

On the other hand, being with the girl gave her a lot of connections

I could call in the team whenever he needed. Spoil the ending – Call Jack

Need a good spiritual perspective – call the undercover angel for a Bible Study.

Tired of the same old, same old – order out for Pizza.

It was just roleplaying of course, but it really seemed to lighten her mood.

In any case she would have great dreams to tell everyone the next morning, and her writing got even better.

I was her enabler and his other self didn't seem to mind. In fact, he was the instigator.

He'd push it more than I dared to. I hadn't tripped over the loose corners of the universe twice, so it took me a bit longer to get on board.

At any rate he seemed to have a better story worked out. One that involved a third party doing the rescue rather than me. That would leave a way out. Some way to let her down a bit easier.

I could say it was the other him that did the rescue and that the paradox of the event made him forget -if she kept insisting I was there. Other him wasn't sure if that was the truth or not, but it made a bit more sense than some of her dreams.

Again, it seemed that she was ahead of me. She had been talking to this other him alone and had deduced that her mind was just wrapping up the narrative in the way that made the most emotional satisfaction.

She had found the clue on her iPhone. An account set up for her and a picture of himself, myself looking dead. An empty account for Romeo and a picture of Paul Mcgann.

I had been playing with her iPhone the other day and didn't see any of it. Then there was a study they had with a man that looked a lot like she described the angel in her dream....

She immediately went to the internet and found a story she remembered from a dream. She said his other self had said the 8^th Doctor wrote it for her. At any rate it was there, exactly as she described it.

This lonely self seemed to be 'Film Guy' and I was the one with the cheap trick.
