Teen: HA HA HA! Look OUT, world! Why does everyone have such TROUBLE with everything? I know EVERYTHING I NEED and I'M only SEVENTEEN!

Super Future Teen: Greetings, PAST ME and PASTER me. I am you at THIRTY.
Super Future Teen: Don't freak out about not knowing everything. It turns out you only REALLY need to know about a few key things.
Future Teen: WHICH things?
Super Future Teen: I don't know. I got as far as learning that I didn't need to know everything, but not any specifics.
Super Future Teen: Maybe SUPER-OLD US will appear to refine matters further!
[[The three wait in anticipation.]]
[[The super-old version arrives.]]

I wrote a little reminiscence on Patreon (free/unlocked) — including a first-since-then reprint of the photocomics I made at the time, documenting the trip!
