Scary shit.
It's not common knowledge, but that's how God does it, too. Every time! Albeit - actual divine prophecy is pretty rare. There's no need for it! When you can fix anything and everything infinitely later on, the minutiae of whatever's about to happen next is kind of "small potatoes."
back @limom - turns out I was way off. The guy I thought was going to say it didn't even show up! He freakin' juked me, fate-wise.
But the party was much better for it, though.
