Present: Stop me if you've heard this one before... past, present and future walked into a bar...
Future: ...and it was tense. Heard it before, Present.
Present: You're kidding me right? Really? You had to steal my shine?
Past: I thought it was nice.
Future: Of course you did. Everything is novel to you.
Present: Don't bully our past self.
Future: You're right, you're the one to bully. You know the hardships I must endure because of you?
Present: Me?
Future: Yes, you. Remember? Oh, haha I have time, I have time! No need to worry myself now, that's for a future me!
Present: First of all, I do not sound like that at all, ever and--
Past: I think it was a head on mimic.
Present: --Excuse me, when did the middle of my sentence start yours? Hey, and you're guilty of the very same thing, well, no not exactly. Sometimes I really marvel at your planning.
Past: Really? How so?
Present: Okay, so sometimes I fret and worry about an assignment. All the what if's, but you reassure me every time I look back. Sometimes I completely forget, but you remembered so I don't have to worry about it.
Past: Wow, I forgot about those...
Future: Yes, what a great relationship you two have. If only I was included in that joy of reassurance.
Present: Hey, don't forget, Past is just as guilty with the procrastination.
Past: Eh... don't blame me. I'm done and over with.
Future: And I'm destined to change, so maybe do a few things yourself and I wont be so mad all the time and overloaded.
Present: Are you guys placing our faults as a person all on me?
Future/Past: yeah.
Present: I'll have you know I have high expectations for you, Future.
Past: You don't really mirror mine, Present.
--silence --
Present: And I remember myself being a little nicer.
Future: Ouch!
Past: Hey! I'm great, remember when I wrote that story? That great story and novel?
Future: Wait, what? Great story, no when?
Present: Shh, quiet Past!
Past: Oh, oh, she doesn't know? Yeah, I wrote a story, why? Wait, why doesn't she know?
Present: Shut up...!
Future: Because I've been tasked with writing something.
Past: Present? What is this? What about my story?
Present: Well, it wasn't working for me...
Past: So you discarded it? What!
Future: Hey, you already wrote it! I still must bear the hardship!
Present: I'm sorry. I should really get back to that right now.
Past: Hey, what about my story?
Future: I'll get right on that. Right, Present?
Present: Shut up.
Future: ...and it was tense. Heard it before, Present.
