“The moment you stand on the Platform after Transition, the interpretation of your presence will be completely subjective to witnesses at Materialisation Point,” tersely stated H Team Director Gutts at Pre-Briefing.
The physiological and psychological side effects of time displacement in chrononauts were well documented and contingencies could be planned for by this point. After all, “Future Selves Solve ‘Meta’ Contingencies Ahead of Schedule” was the unofficial slogan of the APF’s Project: HORLOGE team.
The vaguer conjectural considerations now at hand were that of how onlookers at the chronological destination would perceive the agent in situ. 4-D Meta-Scope projections remain debatable regarding this specifically (Quantum Blur). Furley subjects such as young Stoddard himself are usually of no great concern because each mission is tailored to his Context Prep, but for others, extra caution should be exercised in subsequent missions.
Past missions have a positive track record, so the HORLOGE team remains optimistic yet prudent on future endeavours.
Previous CHRONO missions:
Stratum K, Stratum V, Reid Hall, “Black Boomerang” Incident, Attica.
Planned CHRONO missions (as of Stratum XLVI):
a. Crique de Yanick Drowning Prevention (Stratum VII)
b. Batterie CCXXIII ‘Hand-Up’ (“How did they scale the pilings?”)
c. ‘Montego Irradiation’ — Mann under Palmes brings the aloe balm
d. ‘Elysian Pool Irradiation’ — Essiccosi e Malattia del Sole plus Odyssey decadence wilts the carnations during uni prelims. (Intercession plan pending)
