Hello it is I, the Popcorn enjoyer anon, no longer anon because like.. I'm not really hiding anything and I have no reason to be anxious on tumblr of all places. I've got a question about the wholeness of Dancing. Since she doesn't splinter off into multiple timelines and is a Whole Being, what happens if she dies from something? Would she still get the information from the future she technically hadn't lived through yet?

Hello there #1 Popcorn fan!!! No need to hide we all chill here

[Small spoiler warning to the Watcher DLC? AU sillytalk based on in-game mechanics, NOT canon lore]

What I was thinking is that instead of all of Dancing's memories traveling through time, time literally fully rewinds in the case of her dying. For normal creatures, dying would go like this, for reference:

Both of those realities and timelines exist, it depends who's perspective we're watching them through right now. That's why Ringing's children are dead - we are watching the one branch where that was the case from her perspective.

I imagined Dancing to be kind of a "representant" or "ambassador of the world" itself, she's somewhat of a higher point of reference, a guardian of said spacetime (which she'd become during the equivalent of her in-game plotline in RoF) working alongside it. Spacetime which she doesn't really want to meddle with if it's not needed and there isn't anything endangering the Cycle (put a pin in that :-) ).

Time would also probably rewind to the last time she slept, for the sake of consistency with the hibernation respawn mechanic and the whole "sleep is like a demo version of death" type of deal.

So any realities that managed to branch off during that period of time (a short one as well, a Slugcat can't go long without some rest once in a while) would also be erased and turned back to the time of Dancing's last nap she took somewhere in time, somewhere in space, but with no memories being sent back in time, rather seamlessly. Events in all those realities would also go how they did the first time, unless Dancing was one involved with them and chose to do something differently this time. But that's something she doesn't really want to do (get it? She's the Watcher. The one who watches [absolute cinema]).

[FIRST DLC ENDING SPOILERS BELOW - Bonus doodle and additional Dancing lore]

Bonus doodle for that train of thought, because after all her fun adventures with the mischevious Echo child, she found a place to call home in Ancient Urban, where there's not much to worry about in the department of "things that could kill me". Honestly after years of wandering dozens of dimensions - she deserves that break.

A friend of mine (@squiggl3) sent me a video (check the comments for it) and then I spent the night making this! Volume warning for the end.
