I don't know all their reasons. All of us getting out is the most recent timeline for them, but... I dunno if we got out of the Underground multiple times. Hell, maybe this was the first time they managed it. All I know is that...
[He stops and sighs for a second, because talking about this is hard. Even if it's not what happened this timeline, even if technically it didn't happen to him, it's really, really hard.]
That... there's been at least one timeline where... a whole lot of monsters ended up dead. And I mean... a lot. [He doesn't name anyone. But he probably doesn't need to. The way he looks away from Tempus for a moment basically gives away at least one person in that list, anyway.] ...I dunno how things would've ended up if they hadn't given up. Only reason they reset everything is 'cause apparently they, uh... couldn't manage to kill me. Heh.
...'S that timeline I've been getting the most dreams of.
[He supposes it's good he managed to make them quit, but mainly he just hates the whole situation.]
I know there's another time traveler because they pretty much came out and told me. That, uh, jerk that was writing to me that one night? That's the one. I dunno their name, but they've definitely been messing around with timelines. Say they're an old friend, because I guess they think they're funny.
[He's got sympathy for Grit. Not so much for his pen pal.]
