Is she wearing a time-transport-y wristwatch?
Flippers

So time travel *does* involve falling over!

Flying is easy:
One simply throws oneself at the ground, but misses.

42, Joseph. ;)

@Tober: Even if it's only for a few weeks, it's really great to get a new comic every day. Did you have a buffer or are you drawing a comic a day? Anyway, thanks so much, for the comic, it's really puzzling and catching.

Will they both get in the same place and time?
Chris

So, she's going to go back in time... and she looks like the boy who looks like a girl, only she's a girl.... hijinks ensue.

Not just speed, greater weight/mass needs greater velocity. Interesting.
Will he jump a mile high into the sky?

The stars are drawn beautifully.

@Faust sorry, but no. the only difference between speed and velocity is that velocity takes direction into account (i.e. forward>0, backward

This comic is the greatest! I'm going to go jump out a window with a watch on now.

Maybe he's really housed in a satellite, and the him there is a remote controlled drone or a solid light projection or something.

@Faust/jimothy:
So we're looking for a proportional velocity/mass ratio? It's not going off of pure momentum or kinetic energy since those are functions of mass and velocity. Arguably, they're translating kinetic energy (mv^2) into temporal shift, but since you're translating more mass you need more energy to "move" it, overcoming its inertia (normally momentum which is mv, but this could be a temporal inertia which is related to mass times the rate at which you proceed through time instead of space, and because spatial speed is related to temporal speed maybe m/v or mv/c or mc/v or something) so a higher mass therefore requires more velocity to achieve the same temporal effect.
This also brings up questions of whether you need to match speeds with the amount of time you want to travel.

Swords don't protect a person automatically. He might want to tell her that.

All of this "theoretical" rationalization blows up when you realize that for young Charlie to coexist at the same time as mature Charlie, you have to have two different timelines. At this point, you have to question whether or not there is such a thing as time travel, or merely alternate dimensions of time that explore the range of all possibility. That being said, every moment in time, every possible outcome, progressively prunes itself to the final ultimate choice leading to the end of the universe and time itself...
...or this is all just BS! :P

My theory has holes, but I thought I'd throw it into the mix :D
So definitely a "Many Worlds" thing, but also a "single outcome" scenario. The two Sam/Charlies existing together without one remembering the other past was because it's a loop and the younger Charlie dies, while older Sam doesn't. If the younger Charlie lived, the older Sam would have remembered it.
Maybe?

What kind of purgatory are these poor souls in that doesn't have chocolate ice cream? What nightmarish sins must they have committed to deserve such misery?
