Teaching about Agatha Heterodyne’s life in future Europan classrooms is going to be a trip, and let me tell you why.

It’s going to be like the first lesson, and the teacher’s going to be saying some bullshit like, “Agatha Heterodyne lived between 1872-1964 and died at 90 years of age.”

And someone in class will do some quick math and be like “teacher, don’t you mean 92 years of age?”

And the teacher’s going to be like “no, no, we’re not counting the two years she was in the timestop”

And I know what you’re thinking, how young are these kids? Wouldn’t the timestop be, like, general historical knowledge? It was kind of a big deal at the time.

But I will bet you cash money that, since then, at least 15 to 20 other wacky, improbable major scale events have taken place in Mechanicsburg, and the timestop just… kinda got lost in that shuffle. Like yes, one or two kids in class are going to know about the timestop before hand, but most likely someone’s going to be like,

“But wait, I thought that lasted six months, not two years?”

And the teacher’s going to sigh and be like, “no, you’re thinking of the time loop of 1929, we’re studying that one next semester”

And everybody, including the teacher, is going to be thinking “fucking Mechanicsburg.”
