I always like the premise of the movie Back to the future... as well as everything. else about it. But the idea of being forced back in time and, in addition to trying to find a way back home, to have to help your parents get together to save your future hide always appealed to my inner 'shipper.
So... I just got the first chapter of a new fanfic up. It's been forming in my head for years but other projects (including ones that are going or went nowhere) distracted me from it. It's basically set in a possible future of the underGRADS canon, where one of the kids gets sent back in time by a government/university experiment gone wonk... and, as well as trying to get back (and getting their own parents together), decides that they have to be the ones who get together the parents of two of her best friends and try not to reveal too much to her only confidant... her future godmother. Because (it is written that) to know the future is to be trapped by it... but to know that there IS a trap is the first step in evading it.
And this kid likes being trapped.
Of course, it may also be a very detailed dream.
