"It's only linear because I know the path. If I didn't know the path, who knows how technology could develop? Although, the answer is not very far considering in 3700 years, they hadn't progressed much." He was already messing with world history in his own way, but it was organic enough.
"I suppose that's true, although what is a measure of reality is apparently subject to recalculation considering I hadn't thought I'd be alive this long." Senku commented wryly. "By all rights, I should've lived a natural life, but here I am."
It wasn't so much as doubling down, but Senku was truly and honestly fascinated by the world around him. He found every aspect of science, math and engineering endlessly fascinating. What he had been doing wasn't a challenge, exactly, except he was coming up with alternate ways to get to the end result. It was a constant puzzle. He loved it.
"Selfishly missing my dad is no reason to mess with time anyway. I don't know what I'd even say to him. There's nothing I could say, that I didn't say when we knew each other." It was less of an issue and more that he was still in mourning, as someone who'd actually lost his family permanently. There was no waking up Byakuya in the future. "Seeing him wouldn't bring him back to life, since he died some 3700 years ago, give or take."
"I suppose it's alright. Knowing it's possible is enough, I could shift my focus to figuring out time travel. I have a good mental resource on what the latest theories were when the world ended. Maybe that's something I can do in a decade or so when we're done bringing everyone back and defeating the threat that petrified us in the first place." He wasn't offended she didn't want to part with the knowledge, exactly, but he was disappointed.
