[image description: two-shot of the time machine orb and the man in black facing each other, both shown in profile. for the time machine does resemble a robotic person, with a row of five circular eyes on its spherical face, glowing bright green as if in expectation. it even has what appear to be a pair of hydraulic arms on either side of its body. the man in black on the other hand is ostensibly human. under his grey mop of hair he wears a pair of sporty black sunglasses, and his long leather overcoat is reminiscent of the one famously worn by neo in the matrix. “and now i know that it is i who will build that same time machine in the past once i’ve used this one to travel back there,” he exposits, “that my younger self may find and use it to meet selena!”]
He has to remind himself why he did that.
