OMG. Yes, your parents will come save you! And you know, FWR, turnabout is fair play!

So, that's four sets of Shaorans and Sakuras by my count: originals, clones, CCS characters, and the parents of Watanuki and Shaoran Jr. I'm referring to this last set as "Lord Shaoran" and "Lady Sakura" to distinguish them from the CCS characters. The clones are dead, and the originals I refer to as "Princess Sakura" and "Jr."

CLAMP have totally psyched us out. I love it.

Yes, but also, in this scenario, Lady Sakura has to give it back to high-school Sakura so that high school Sakura can give it to Yuuko when she's grown up into Lady Sakura.

Is your brain broken yet? ^_^

HAHA~~ then that wouldn't be good then LOL it will be a neverending cycle of misery ^^;;; we don't need the journey event to happen over and over again for her son.
It is sort of like since HS|Sakura represent the past self and Lady|Sakura represent the present self... and through the dream... a person of its own self is able to meet with each other [in such way calling it as "a different world"]. Then the star staff in the same way also somehow will be "1 existence become 2" like the EGG ^__^ So, HS|Sakura sort of gave HER past Star Staff while Yuuko still own the "present" star staff from Lady|Sakura

Does that make sense?? XD

No, not a neverending cycle of misery--I meant that if they're the same person at different times, then in the original timestream Lady Sakura kept the staff until she gave it to Yuuko (and let's call this point D), and from points D to Z expected to have no staff. But her past self, at point A, gave her future self (Lady Sakura) the staff in a dream at point F. So now, from point B onward, Sakura would have no staff, unless Lady Sakura, at point H of her own timeline, gives her past self the staff back at point C, so that she has the staff to give to Yuuko at point D again: the present is always "now"," even if time has moved on.

Although, I do think the star staff could also be/have been quantum twinned as you describe, like Shaoran Jr. and the egg were.

JAJAJAJAJ me mata como se van pasando el baculo entre las 2 xDDD que onda yo crei q era un baculo magico no una dinamita a punto de explotar! dios mio.. este manga cada vez tiene menos sentido =P

*dies of intense brain pain* XD But... I can conclude FWR wants to resurrect the STAFF! ;D

tiljaunique.livejournal.com

I like that idea! But the thing is, the staff is in Clow's room. So, instead of resurrecting the staff, maybe he wants it back to resurrect... LOGIC! Because it's been dead for a very loooong time now, even from before the manga began xD

THAT IS THE MOST 'LOGIC' THING I'VE READ SINCE TRC STARTED!!!!! ;D
