    You are too drunk and flipped out to care about restrictions on commands.

    As it turns out, flipping the fuck out and doing a flip and being drunk isn't the best idea. You're doing it anyway.

    And here we go OH FUCK

    You are now the other guy. Oh god your head. You think you'd prefer to stay down for now and pretend that they is not a full scale excavation squad attempting to escape through your forehead, only briefly set back by you closing your eyes.

    What will you do?
    Your chumhandle is tracedSparks and you have no idea why you even have a chumhandle, as you have no chums who use Pesterchum.
    You also have a text adventure that is always open to commands, LandLost.

    Ok, you can't put off getting up any longer. When you open your eyes, you're on a couch, apparently thrown awkwardly onto it. You take a look around, and you see your shield leaning against a wall. You guess you're still in Martin's house. So apparently the exploding thing didn't happen. That's nice to know.

    What will you do now?

    You drag yourself off the sofa and head over to your shield, tapping it with your keyring which is apparently still with you and putting it in your inventory. Other than your headache and your ribs not wanting to expand quite as well today, you seem to be economically stable, since your gear and money is still with you, even that mystery booze. You guess Martin lasted two minutes then, which is about a minute and fifty seconds longer than you did. Where is he, anyway?

    "Halt, past dweller!"

    You turn around and see Martin, who appears to be wearing bright white pants, shirt and coat. He's also waving his hands dramatically at you. You have no idea what the hell he's doing. You decide to ask.

    "What are you doing?"

    "I came to deliver a warning! From the future!"

    "You're always from the future."

    "Yes, but this time, I'm from the super future!"

    This is accompanied by much more dramatic hand waving. You agree with the waving of hands and attempt to imitate him, but your face gets in the way of your palm somehow.

    "Again, what are you doing?"

    "I've come to tell you that your quest is futile, and that you'll never find my past self in time to-"

    "I already found you."

    "What? When?"

    "Just now. You're from the future, you should already know this. How is present you not hearing this? Are you deaf as well as chronologically confused?"

    He looks visibly disappointed.

    "Do you know how hard it is get perfectly white pants in the middle of freaking nowhere and back without getting them dirty? And I got my timing wrong, so now I can't try again without creating a time paradox?"

    "I'm sure you're very hurt by this turn of events. But why the hell did you do it in the first place?"

    "Wanted to see the calibrations on my device were right. Apparently not."

    "What device?"

    "Present me will explain it at some point. I think. It's been a while. Anyway, I've got to go!"

    "Back to where, again?"

    "Back to the present! My present! Your future! The super future!

    He then promptly runs downstairs and the sound of his footsteps abruptly stop. That was incredibly pointless. How did regular Martin not hear that? You look through the door, and he appears to have fallen asleep on his desk face first into his coat. Hmm.

    What will you do now?

    You go walk up to him, and address him.

    "Alright, wake up."

    He doesn't wake up. You try again. He still doesn't wake up. You try physical methods. This is stress-relieving, but he still doesn't wake up. That explains why he didn't react to your exchange with the other Martin.

    You inspect his coat and discover to your general shock and amazement that his coat is not connected to his ears. Whatever shall you do.

    You pick up his coat. Nothing happens, obviously. Connecting a piece of clothing to time travel would be extremely silly. Besides, it's old and not a particularly nice coat.

    SHIT WHAT DID YOU DO WHAT DID YOU DO OK YOU'RE PUTTING THE COAT BACK HAHAHA WAS THIS SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN WHY DID HE DISAPPEAR WHILE UNCONSCIOUS WHY IS THAT A THING THAT HAPPENS OH GOD THE PARADOXES WHAT HAVE YOU DONE

    Right, you'll just go do that then, he can time travel, he'd probably just come back when he wakes up and

    "Who were you yelling at? If it was me, this is my house, you can't tell me to get out. It would make you a very ungracious guest."

    "I was... Nothing. Where'd you go, anyway?"

    "Aaaand this is why I don't sleep much. Subconscious time travel. Last time I went to sleep and time traveled I ended up right in the middle of the democracy years."

    He looks visibly pained at the thought.

    "I haven't slept in a while since then. Well, until now. Anyway, did you take my coat? Why would you do that? Would you take someone's spatula? Of course you wouldn't. So don't take my coat. I like my coat."

    You just let him keep talking.

    You take a look around the house. It's fairly basic. A few rooms, bathroom, toilet, lab with random bits of metal and gears and miscellaneous tools lying around. You can't see the crate anywhere, so you guess it's still outside.

    What will you do now?

    You ask him the first half of that sentence.

    "Sorry man, I've been having some issues with my Magicnet connection recently, and I'm slow as fuck out here running on dial-up. You're on your own if you need to look something up."

    Well, that at least puts that out of the way. What will you do now?

    You ask him to do, and a future you looking beaten up and tired appears.

    "'Sup?"

    "'Sup. So, what's happening in the future?"

    "Ten hour sparring session with yourself. It gets really confusing and you almost start a time paradox at some point, and there ends up being about twenty of us by the end of it. And then it's another ten hours just making sure the time loops close properly. But you level up and you spend most of the time hanging out with yourself. As it turns out, I'm great company."

    "Aren't I?"

    "Obviously. So much intelligent conversation."

    "I'll get the drinks then."

    Suddenly, twenty of you appear in various stages of exhaustion.

    "We're just going to go hang out in the living room. We were thinking of using numbers to keep track of ourselves, but we all agree that it just won't work out. One of you guys start."

    One of you steps out from the crowd and most of the rest head into the living room, some staying to watch the fight, which you decide to take outside. You follow them and try to keep track of yourself in this time paradox waiting to happen. Martin walks in from the other room holding a large tray of drinks.

    "Ok, I made lemonai- ok, I didn't mean to bring back that many of you. I'm going to need more drinks. Who's up for tea?"

    There's a chorus of yeses as you close the door and prepare to engage in fisticuffs. This could take a while.

    Over the course of the ten plus some hour period, what will you do?
