I love that twist.

You ever play Transistor, by chance? You should at least watch YouTube clips, if only for its awesome soundtrack. Minus time travel, the vibe feels similar.

While less similar, I sometimes think about a similar scenario in a transcendent future, specifically Orion's Arm. There's no time travel there either (general relatively rules), but basically, two deep soulmates diverge. One transcends to higher levels of consciousness where, eventually, their substrate spans and encloses multiple stars, while the other person stubbornly stays the same. And I think out little vignettes, like conflicts of trust when one parter can literally simulate reality for the other, despair, worry, scenarios where even the transcendent human turns to their partner in a crisis.

I have! It lives on my cell phone and I play through it once in a while.
