Yes, Sue, please don't worry about the other stories. I think it's fun to see how different minds take the same problems in different directions. Now I'll have to go find those other stories you mentioned. I'll have to wait till the kids are in bed tonight to check the nfic archives though 
This *is* my happily ever after.

Feel free to confuse me everytime you want with another good story.  It is the time travel that is so complicated. I'm looking froward to part 10

Sue, I haven't had time to read and follow much on the boards lately, but I'm coming out of my recent lurkdom to show my support for your story. I have been anxiously awaiting the final chapter. I check back every day or so hoping you've posted it. Regardless of what other stories out there may resemble yours, I'm currently hooked. So please take some hints from us and get 10 posted!  I have to say, I don't remember being so confused when I read part 9. Reading the comments, I wonder if maybe my mind glossed over the intricacies of time travel in order to more fully enjoy the basics of the story. Once its finished, I might have to reread it all to see if I actually understand what's happening. And I fully agree with the "Really Freaking Interesting Award." Did not see that coming and I'm surprised after so many years it has not been even close to being brought up. Sue, you have such an imaginative mind! I love it! Can't wait for the last part! And hello to everyone, its been quite awhile!  ~Kristen

Joey: Yeah, it's like a cow's opinion, you know, it just doesn't matter. It's "moo."
Rachel: Have I been living with him for too long, or did that all just make sense?

Sue, you know there aren't any truly original storylines any more, don't you? Humanity has been around too long for that, and we are obsessed with telling stories. All the really good ideas have been used already. That doesn't mean that all the stories with much the same plotline are the same stories. Think of it like this. There are millions of chairs out there which serve basically the same function. That doesn't mean they are all the same chair. ![[Linked Image]](http://www.ecodesignz.com/Merchant2/graphics/00000001/ED_02SideChair_F.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://www.yankodesign.com/images/design_news/2007/11/28/cardboard_chair.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://www.bornrich.org/images/neber-computer-chair_12.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://www.yankodesign.com/images/design_news/2007/04/11/mosquito_chair.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://www.geekologie.com/2007/11/01/cool-chair.jpg) (Well, yes, this last thing is supposedly a chair, although I think we've crossed the line into weirdness now...) Anyway, Sue. Who cares if the plotline of your story seems mildly familiar? Your story is uniquely your own. We need your story! Pleast post it soon! The idea may not be new, but the snowflake is unique! Please put us out of our misery, Sue! ![[Linked Image]](http://www.cosmicastronomy.com/snowflake-1.jpg) Ann Haven't convinced you yet? Well, remember they say that even Shakespeare stole the plot of Hamlet! ![[Linked Image]](http://images.broadwayworld.com/upload/43336/shakespeare.jpg)

Can't say this image fits the bill, but it's cute, so... ![[Linked Image]](http://images.icanhascheezburger.com/completestore/2008/8/25/knockknockh128641791682943799.jpg) Yes, haz you heard bout ceiling cat, or haz you seen Sue?

Hi Sue! I love HG.Wells/Tempus/time traveling fics so when (today in the morning) I read Ricochet was this kind of fic on the Outtakes' post I ran to read it. It's still today at night :rolleyes: and I'm looking for the 10th part - because as you know the last part was posted on April 28th - and I can't find it!!!!

Sue is likely lost in the timeloop started when they tried to reset the timeline.
As a side point I always enjoyed the POV wherein Tempus turned out to be right, the so-called Utopia was destroyed when the Khunds invaded and destroyed Earth, and only the timelines where Tempus won survived.
Also I figure utopeans were clearly POD people. if Lois had lived then she'd have been a Rebel trying to bring down the whole thing.
So maybe Sue can just let H.G. Wells get lost in Time/Space and not reset anything and move on to telling about the Non-Utopia Earth repulsing the Khund invasion.
