A Quick Disclaimer (Superhero Black Hole, part 108)

OK, dear Reader: before you start criticising us for the increase in bonkersishness that has gone on the up as _Superhero Black Hole_ (a title that Zoe still detests, even though she's a Muse fan, too) has continued, I want to make some things perfectly clear about the world of time-travellers (who shall henceforth in this chapter be referred to as "Us").

Parallel universes _do_ exist.

Time travel _is_ nonsensical, and privvy to very few rules, as it turns out.

J.J. Abrams is _not_ like Us, but happens to be extremely adept at guessing things.

There really really really _is_ no highly convenient deus ex machina.

The Bermuda Triangle has nothing to do with Us.

Those times when you're trying to find a thing (car keys, credit card, etc) and it's nowhere to be found, and then a few minutes later you find it in a place you swore you looked in before _may_ have something to do with Us.

But the point is this: It's all pretty gorram ridiculous in our world, but your world is pretty gorram ridiculous too...
