What do you do next?

You experiment more with your powers

Beside the bathroom sink's faucet is a small, glass cup for water. You pick it up in your new meaty grip with an idea.

You toss the glass into the trash bin beside the toilet, watching it shatter in the metal basket. After a second, you think to yourself, “I wish the glass wasn’t broken.”

As if magnetized, the tiny shards of broken glass come together, snapping back into place. You reach into the waste bin and take out the glass, now made whole and set it on top of the toilet tank.

“I wish I never dropped the glass.”

The glass vanishes in a blink. You look over to the sink to find it safe and sound next to the faucet, exactly where you picked it up from.

You pick up the glass once again and toss it under handed into the bathtub, hearing it shatter inside. Tip-toeing to be careful of any glass, you stand beside the wash tub and turn back to the sink, holding your palm open in the path of the glass' arc from when you threw it.

“I wish that I am standing here, right as the glass was being thrown.”

In a blink, you’re standing in front of yourself, tossing the glass under handed at you. By reflex, you manage to grab the glass before it falls.

“So it worked?” the you from before asks the current you.

“Kinda,” you reply to yourself, “I don’t remember another me catching the glass though.”

“So, we're not working under terminator time logic then.”

“we're not but I-we can still go back in time and change things. I tossed the glass into the bathtub and it shattered.”

“So branching timeliness then?”

“It would appear so.”

“Cool.” The both of you say at the same time.

“Have fun, me.” You tell the other vision of you, “You too, me.” He replies.

“I wish I was back in my timeline, right where I left off" you wish to yourself. The other you disappears in a blink, leaving a brief haze of blue light in his wake. In your hand is the glass, behind you is the same glass, shattered in the bathtub.

You make the shattered glass disappear with a wish and set the glass from the other timeline by the kitchen faucet.

What's next?
