Life on Earth started in the ocean. Every palaeontologist knows that. As a teenager, Connor loved the idea that the origins of life were the result of alien experiments. These days, his theories are a lot less fun.

            Now he wonders if life was started by a random organism from the past, present or future straying through an anomaly into the sterile Precambrian ocean. What if life from Earth created life on Earth? Then life would be the universe’s biggest ever perpetual time-loop paradox; a freakish, fragile accident.

            Sometimes, in the dark of night, Connor finds these thoughts rather frightening.

Actually, I find those thoughts rather frightening! Not to mention they give me a headache! *g*

Very cool take on the prompt.

Super-scary, as Connor might say! But very good :-)

This is an awesome take on the prompt. Poor Connor - those thoughts are frightening me too!

nice idea, Connor.

anybody can get nightmares from other people; it takes intelligence (ie Connor) to give one'sself nightmares.

excellent drabble.

I missed this!
This is very much a Connor thought. He may not be his own grandfather he may be *everybody's* grandfather!

Oh, Connor, little soul. *hugs him* This was fab, and I don't know how I missed it before... :)

Very Connor, he does think too much at times for his own peace of mind.

[rodlox.livejournal.com]

that would make it very fragile...or reinforcing, buffering(?).

very nice thoughts you've brought up.

and a good Connor.

brava!
