[ peter thinks of the cell degradation that the clones had gone through, and he wonders, briefly, if the temporary doesn't allude to something not entirely unlike that. after everything they'd been through so far, after the so-called answers they'd managed to get, he'd always kind of assumed that the lanterns were some kind of vague magic thing he'd need doc strange to understand, but now? maybe not. maybe there's more science to it than he'd started to believe.
(which would be great, actually.) ]
—Right, but it was 2019 for me. Doc Ingram's from a future relative and adjacent to mine, right? You're— [ peter gestures loosely and vaguely at daylight. ] From somewhere and somewhen else entirely, right? I don't know if we should be too hung up on the when—. [ the comment hangs a little at the end, as if there's more to the thought that peter doesn't immediately vocalise. the when could be relevant, but probably only in direction relation to beacon.
—but then there's the question of the resets themselves. he sighs sharply, eyebrows knitting together before he looks back up at day. ] The calendar might be correct, but uh. [ he gestures towards a window. ] Beacon's been reset countless times, just because whatever occurred here occurred one hundred years ago, that doesn't mean we're in 2079. We could be— like a bubble?
