Hypothetically speaking, what would you do if the person you were in love with literally forgot you existed? Or, what if you remember having a life with this person except it technically never happened for them?

But thanks for listening, Dick. Again. I know I've been caught up in my own stuff, but this is a two-way street. You'll let me know when I can return the favor?

Always. [ He’d never doubted that for a moment, but it’s nice to hear anyway, and the warmth in his voice speaks to that. ]

And in case there’s ever any doubt, there’s never a time when I’m too busy to hear about the perils of a multiversal love life.
