T-Rex: Normal detective stories are bland! We're all tired of detectives who solve mysteries the hard way by being smart and logical and well-versed in crimes.
T-Rex: What we WANT are detectives with SIGNIFICANT and game-breaking advantages!!
T-Rex: Hence my new character: Thyme Flies, the detective who travels through time! When an impossible mystery happens and nobody can solve it, he simply travels back in time to see what actually happened, then comes back and tells people.
Dromiceiomimus: Aha - but what if they don't BELIEVE him? This Cassandra setup could lead to a FASCINATING series of stories where -
T-Rex: He records video too.
Utahraptor: Okay, but - what if his clients think the video is FAKED?
T-Rex: If they're stupid, sure!
T-Rex: If the hire a DETECTIVE who TRAVELS TIME and when he comes back with ACTUAL VIDEO FROM THE PAST showing the crime in full HD they say "nuh-uh", then there's nothing I can do about that. Probably at that point Thyme Flies just shrugs and goes back in time and tells himself not to take those clients.
T-Rex: And before you say "what if the crime takes place in the dark so the video doesn't show anything" he has an infrared camera too.
Off panel: Damn
