[Yeah, Philip, some people haven't gotten to that part of history yet, jeez, tag for spoilers, you jerk. Or don't, Magoichi would happy to tell future generations of the Saika to stay on the Tokugawa's good side for about 250 years.]
I can't imagine it would change anything in my personal timeline. Sekigahara was well under way when I was brought here, and my faction was allied with Ieyasu for some time beforehand. I can't imagine Motochika would be assumed dead, though. Not only does he cause trouble wherever he goes, Ieyasu is a merciful man, and they were friends since he was young.
[Although it does make her worry that Motochika might have ended up an accidental casualty. There's not much Ieyasu could have done if he was hit by cannon fire or a soldier that lost his sense of judgment in the heat of battle got to him first.]
The very one. I don't doubt that the two of them made different decisions, but I think that there is more to it than just that. I was familiar with Mitsuhide of my home, and he was truly a fool, intoxicated on bloodshed and his lord. If what Motochika tells me is true, the one traveling with his counterpart is a fool in a different manner, one that is gentle of nature but incapable of recognizing that Nobunaga Oda was anything but until he'd nearly brought the country to his heel.
That is a possibility, and it would not surprise me were it true. It would explain why the nature of this teleportation seems to be at random. However, there is very little information available to us, and it would be dangerous to draw conclusions at this point. I do appreciate having someone to speak to on the matter, though. You are quite insightful.
