There's a new story at FFN by EmmettMcFly55. I just started reading it, and it's very interesting. I have to figure out the family relations of each character>

The four of them in front of Jules Brown’s temporal lab were Emmett Marty Brown, son of Jules Eratosthenes Brown and Marlene Sarah McFly, Josh McFly, son of Scott Seamus McFly and Suzy May Lee, Martin Seamus McFly Jr., son of Martin Seamus McFly Sr. and Jennifer Jane Parker, and his brand new girlfriend Annie Brown, the daughter of Verne Brown and Jane McFly. In fact, only Josh was really from 2045. The others came from different time periods: Emmett’s grandfather had lived in the present till 1985 when he was struck by lightning and ended up in the Old West where he met Clara Clayton. Emmett’s father Jules was born shortly afterwards, and in 1903 Jules and his brother Verne decided to travel to the 2100s. There they had started to build a shop, and in 2125 Jules and Verne travelled back in time to the 2020s where Jules had first met Marty McFly Sr’s daughter, Marlene. They had fell in love, married and came back to the 22nd Century together. There was Emmett born, and had Verne fall in love with Marty’s great-great-great-granddaughter Jane McFly (who was Josh’s great-granddaughter) and married her, so they got little Annie. In 2144 they actually stranded on November 2nd 2015 where Marty Jr and Annie had fell in love. But Annie had to got back to the future with her parents, but had came back on November 12th, this time from the year 2145, and had taken him to November 5th 2045, where they were spending a week in the forties.

Jules Brown and Marlene McFly = parents of Emmett Brown
Scott McFly and Suzy Lee = parents of Josh McFly
Marty McFly and Jennifer Parker = parents of Marty McFly Jr
Verne Brown and Jane McFly = parents of Annie Brown

Jules and Verne moved from 1903 to the 2100s.
Jules and Verne moved from 2125 to the 2020s.
Jules falls in love and marries Marlene.
The trio move back to the 2100s.
Verne falls in love with Jane McFly (Marty’s great-great-great-granddaughter).
Verne, Jane, and Annie go back to November 2 of 2015.
Marty Jr and Annie falls in love.
The trio goes back to 2144.
Annie goes back to November 5 of 2045.

Whoa! :blink: I'm going to be up all night thinking about those. That is wild.

I finally figured out this was a continuation of Mike Nichols' scripts! They're very intriguing - but probably about the most confusing fics I've read. I means, these kids are just taking a cruise throughout the space-time continuum - and creating mayhem everywhere, including quite a few near-paradoxes. At one point, Josh had even let it leak to George '55 that Darth Vader wasn't real.

And I though things were confusing enough after Part II. :)

INCEST!! Between Marty Jr. and Annie.

Well, it is certainly interbreeding - but "incest" is kind of subjective. I know such relationships with immediate family members is always "incest" - and so would such relationships with your grandparents, great-grandparents, and other direct ancestors. I think such relationships with aunts and uncles (siblings of your direct ancestors) is usually consideed incest, but not as much. First-cousin relationships are a bit iffy - and, if I'm not mistaken, are disallowed in certain US states. Anything after that, I think, is generally considered okay.

I see what you mean, though. If I remember correctly, I think Jane is a direct descendant of Scott - which would make Marty Jr her great-great...granduncle. So, yeah, I guess many would consider that incest. Not if she was a descendant of Dave or Linda, though - in which case, I guess that would make them first cousins several times removed.

I'll have to check into this a little more.
