Summary:
As a safety precaution, Fiddleford McGucket builds a time travel device that lets him reset back to a fixed point and try again. And again. And again. He's going to get it exactly right one of these loops. It'll just take one more loop.

Submitter's notes:
It's a fic that basically asks "what if Fiddleford built a time looping device instead of the memory gun?" This goes about exactly as well as you'd expect. It feels so plausible, I love the premise, I love this author, I love the way he writes Fiddleford's thought process. There are so many fantastic scenes in this. Parts where you're on the edge of your seat, funny parts, sweet parts. Once you start it, you're not going to be able to put it down.
It's also the fic shown in this viral tweet:
