percolating on the juicy dynamic of a future regen of the master having to bend the knee to a past regen of themselves b/c a past regen can kill a future regen w/out killing themselves but a future regen can't kill a past regen b/c that will also kill them. fascinated with how the past regen has less knowledge and experience and years but is the one in control. how the future regen has lived hundreds or thousands of years longer but still has to go along with their past self's plans. of course, the future regen has had hundreds/thousand/however-much-time to plan a way out of this. although, i would want it to be a little more brutal than that and want the past regen master to kill at least one future self of theirs. past regen master would want to find the furthest regen of themselves possible b/c they could kill that future regen and then find a slightly younger version / prev (but still future) regen of themselves to move onto with the threat of i've already killed myself once so don't think i won't kill you too. i'm so into the concept of the master having to be the master of their own fate which means even being the master of themselves, their future selves.
