How Time Travel Works (And Why You Shouldn't Do It At Home)
Welcome to the official operating manual for the world's first retro-causal displacement engine, invented by Prof. Nong at the top-secret Wheal Paradox Research Bunker—a secret facility hidden inside an old tin mine on the Cornish coast, deep beneath the cliffs where the Atlantic crashes overhead. Time travel is remarkably simple: you compress real-space tensor matrices using negative tachyon density... until something goes delightfully wrong.

CAUSALLY SOUND TIMELINE GRAPH
MODE: GRANDFATHER PARADOXPROFESSOR NONG (Cat)
Chief Inventor @ Wheal Paradox
"A feline genius of unprecedented intellect. Aloof, easily distracted by dangling string, and 100% certain he is the smartest being in any century."
GRIP (Boy)
Chief Engineer
Keeps the tachyon engine running and chews on copper cables when nervous.
OTTO (Boy)
Head of Security
Guards the portal entrance, barks at paradoxes, and has never once caught one.
BAN (Girl)
Temporal Navigator
Plots every timeline jump with precision—navigating strictly by nose.
FRINKYFRONK (Girl)
Lab Safety Officer
In charge of safety. Responsible for pressing the 'DO NOT PRESS' button more than anyone else.
PROF. NONG'S UNIFIED TEMPORAL DISPLACEMENT PROOF
By accelerating imaginary mass tachyons past light speed beneath Cornish granite, the metric signature $g_{\mu\nu}$ flips, permitting backward geodesics without violating local thermodynamics.
The mathematical proof showing how Professor Nong collapses divergent timeline branches with zero loss in total local nap entropy.
