The TVTropes Trope Finder is where you can come to ask questions like "Do we have this one?" and "What's the trope about...?" Trying to rediscover a long lost show or other medium but need a little help? Head to Media Finder and try your luck there. Want to propose a new trope? You should be over at the Trope Launch Pad.

The conversation with Atton in KotOR II is Schrödinger's Question. "If you eat the apple then x, if you eat the orange then y" would be a form of Schrödinger's Gun.

Is there a trope for where your actions in a video game will directly change what happened in the past? Like in Knights Of The Old Republic 2, you have a conversation with Atton Rand early on that determines what the game will consider to be the actions and character of the player character from the original game. Basically, a situation where it's like, if you eat the apple, then Alice destroyed the town in the backstory, but if you eat the orange it was Bob.
