      It’s referencing a meme of a cute child who can barely put words together coherently. The child is trying to ask if you’ve ever had a dream in which you could do anything, or something like that.

        Oh gosh, I’ve never actually seen the original before, only the countless memes. That hurt my heart, to see him become increasingly stressed out as he stumbled over his words, bless him. I was incredibly relieved to eventually get the sentence out and for him to relax into a smile.

        You read the things pointed to by the arrows in order. It is an attempt to detangle the stuttering into coherent sentences. The reason it is difficult to read is because it was difficult to understand what the kid was saying.

          I think another detail is that you read the thing at the base of the arrow before the tip if you didn’t already say it or if what you just said isn’t pointed to by it.

            I think if you get to the end of a branch, you just look for the next number in the sequence and you warp there.
