Episode notes

Billy Three Star said, I loved the love story aspect of it but there was some big picture world building that either completely went over my head or was missing. Eliza here said, interesting premise, original idea, beautiful writing, felt like it was a little dull despite its melodic writing and raw characters spilling their emotions. It seemed like there was a lot of emotion but it wasn't coming through.

This is a twist on a time travel story where the relationship between two enemies-turned-frenemies-turned-lovers takes center stage, leaving the actual mechanics of the time travel and all the world-building mostly unexplained. The dual authorship—each author wrote the chapters for one of the two characters—adds another interesting wrinkle.
