Also, in most timelines you’re dead or never existed.
That's the best part, you have way more timelines where you aren't the MC so there's basically a 0% chance you're in one now.

I'd personally like to believe that I'm preparing to be the wise mentor for a younger hero.
Aww man, that means you're basically guaranteed to be killed by the villain, giving the hero an impetus to fight.
At least you'll give them a final nugget of wisdom with your last breath that will help the hero in a moment of crisis.
I'll continue to guide them from the spirit realm 👻

Too bad my life is a horror story.
Empirically, I'm immortal.
