Ah, you are right, but I feel like they still skipped a lot in that plot. Leaving it vague. He’s a traveler and then later an officer again and then a traveler that must be reborn to be a traveler in the future. Like Jean Luke married his mom at one time and was later portrayed in the future as never being married because he had mommy issues. I say this because supposedly, they had a child and she just simply left the ship when she found out she was pregnant and they do not mention a divorce. She just moved on and they were just friends in the more recent story when he finds out he has a son.
