A Person Your Past Self Would Loathe

Joel struggles with the ennui of a life that didn’t go the direction he wanted, desperate for the meager satisfaction of taking a small vacation. When his cringe-inducing teenage OC punches through to our world from hers in hopes of saving Joel from a villain that would eat them both, he finds himself playing babysitter to a pre-teen with more power than he’s ever had. But her naive enthusiasm is bringing him down, especially since Fatigue seems like an unstoppable foe. He’s not sure she has what it takes to survive in his world for very long.
