@PrivatePublic: On one hand, I can understand what you're saying, at least in the first paragraph. The problem is that, just by virtue of his and Marie's being there, the timeline has shifted and its events altered dramatically, even to accommodate their presences. If he doesn't have total control over time and reality themselves, then it'd be some serious arrogance on his part to think that he can alter reality to return it to the way he thinks it ought to be--not to speak of without Marie's cooperation.
It might be a world heavily based on a game, but if reality was so strictly following the story of the game, he'd not only have failed to meet and acquire Luxion as a partner, he'd have died early on as a result of time/space maintaining their state by eradicating anomalies. Marie wouldn't have fared any better. He just needs to accept that he's a part of the world, now--not some all-knowing, disconnected observer--and realize that whatever he does will affect the timeline he's now a part of like everyone else, just as his attempts at distance will affect the erstwhile heroine and villainess (who are now friends, unlike in the game, BTW--yet I see no attempts on his part to break them up).
The only difference between him and everyone else (that isn't Marie) is that he knows what future events are supposed--and most likely--to happen.
