I make no guarantees on my father's behalf.

@whizzball1

Mm; I would be more concerned with immediate developments. What did you discover?

@Fractured

Nothing! Except that the largest scale on which things in Existence was affected by whatever problem Singularity came back to prevent was groups like us, not like universes or anything.

@whizzball1

No progress without drastically altering the future? How unfortunate.
*Turns to Singularity*
Will you continue your individual conferences?

@whizzball1

More than your group was impacted, but you certainly felt direct repercussions.

@Fractured

No, I'll postpone those until it becomes more feasible.

@Techspert

But nothing of objectively larger importance than superhero groups was impacted, right?

@whizzball1

...
*Shakes my head*
There is much more that was impacted.

@Techspert

That's exactly what I asked!

@whizzball1

I'm sorry? I must have misunderstood.

@Techspert

Maybe my objective is subjective! The more people there are in an organised group like a city, country, or planet, the more important I consider it, with some but not much weight given to the largest scale they've saved people on. So yeah, superhero groups are pretty important because they deal with Existence-level threats, but even a city is still pretty important!

@whizzball1

It is not a world full of destruction, if that is any help.

@Techspert

That's a lot of help! So whatever threat didn't totally devastate Existence?

*Nods*
But its influence does reach out across all of Existence.

@Techspert

Affecting what scale of laymen?

[Techspert]

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

Affecting what scale of laymen?

@whizzball1

Indeterminate.

[whizzball1]

<Snipped quote by whizzball1>

Indeterminate.

@Techspert

In a bad way or in a neutral way?

[Techspert]

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

In a bad way or in a neutral way?

@whizzball1

Neutral with negative potential.

[whizzball1]

<Snipped quote by whizzball1>

Neutral with negative potential.

@Techspert

Current and active—as of your time—negative potential? Or negative in that the indeterminacy tends toward more than less of any given estimate?
