there's nothing in here about one-armed orcs or shrew meeting wizards oh hello previously on miscellanea I'm still not sure how I ended up with a temporarily reverse duplicate of myself let me remember what if an ebony lose that poor fellow can't understand a word I say my clothes are coming apart at the seams well that mold wine was quite tasty and it did warm me up a bit I still don't know where this thread came from perhaps it's a missing plot thread vegan yeah enough us in nothing oh that's it yeah missing episode it felt through a wormhole how am I supposed to find it are you in LA and now the story continues and now the story continues I don't know I felt sure that would work I've been waiting for him to come back for what seems like ages I don't know how to mend the fabric of space-time I thought he would just show up MacGuffin in hand if i said something like and now the story continues Hail Marys sorry I'm late I'm running out of time more ways than one is that why this episode has taken so long to make no that's procrastination that's all you I did manage to find that missing episode it's in bad shape but it's there I remember now I remember the night we made maraschino cherries to start with you'll need cherries preferably some kind of dark cherry but any kind will do you'll also need cherry liqueur ideally you'll want to use luxardo maraschino liqueur but if you can't find it or find it a bit pricey any other kind of natural cherry liqueur will do fine you'll need something to put them in ideally a jar but you can use any kind of clean food safe container place the cherries in a colander first you'll want to sort the cherries remove any that seemed too soft have obvious bad spots or are infested in some way most if not all of the cherries you remove you should be able to use for some other purpose such as pie making for this you want only fresh cherries of good quality with no obvious bad spots gently but thoroughly rinse the cherries with cold water let them drain afterwards but there's no need to dry them pitting the cherries for this is optional if you're going to remove the pits I suggest investing in a cherry pitter it will make the job much faster if you leave them in they will impart a slight almond like flavor to the finished product if you're worried about cyanide leaching out of the pits go ahead and remove them but the amounts would be negligible pit it or not put the cherries into the jar or whatever container you're using for this fill the jar as full as you like but don't pack it you don't with the cherries to be smashing each other once you have the cherries in the jar add the cherry liqueur just keep pouring till the cherries are covered screw on the lid shake them up a little put them in the fridge and two weeks or one clock wipe later they'll be ready for cocktails Sunday's cupcakes or whatever you fancy well that's all well and good but how is this supposed to help the cherries are good but they're not enough I don't belong in this universe you see at any given moment there are practically infinite possibilities myriad paths branching out from the same point in space-time normally there's remained separate you and I are two paths in the same forest when you stepped into the tachyon beam the matter transporter had already been activated but instead of sending you through time or through space it tore you into you walked away unscathed for the time being but look but look at you you're dishevelled you don't know what day it is falling apart at the seams were two ends of the same candle same candle both burning at once two strings twisted together unraveling from both ends you are the left mustache and I am the right wait so we're a candle and a forest I'm sorry there are just so many metaphors flying around are you following this you're right you're right I'll make this very simple I need to find a way into my universe certain things like those cherries contain stored temporal energy anything with time as the primary ingredient the time took to make that liqueur to grow those cherries on the tree to soak them in the jar but it's not enough I need more I need that energy to open doorway between universes and only then and only then when I step through that doorway into my rightful timeline will both universes and both men heal oh yes simple well now wait a minute there was a reason I made these cherries and it wasn't as a topper for delicious frozen treats that episode had a second half so you gonna go get it oh I guess so tune in next time for information on something else they say that time heals all wounds but what if time itself is wounded next time on miscellanea a stitch in time saves time I will be so glad once I'm in my own universe what time is it when the universe is falling apart of the seams time to time a time time time and time time for time on time time
