The universe had reset, mostly. But some things had changed. His left thumb now glowed faintly purple when he lied. His neighbor’s cat spoke fluent French but only on Tuesdays. And Harold had developed an unexpected talent: he could hear echoes of conversations that hadn’t happened yet.
Maybe that was enough.
