Where things go from here: speculation and musing

In their post-season-finale interviews, the showrunners have been very consistent about not wanting to speculate about what happens to any of the characters after the events of the finale, and have repeatedly said that it's now up to audience members to decide those things for themselves. Of course, to be consistent with both the nature and the tone of the show, any future imagined developments should probably be a) realistic (both in the sense of "consistent with reality" and in the sense of "psychologically viable for that person at that time"), and b) a mixture of melancholic and hopeful. But even within those parameters there are an awful lot of possible outcomes, and there are an awful lot of characters who those possible outcomes could happen to, as well.

So what do you think happens next? For any of the characters, and at any point in time after when the finale ends?

The problem is, if she changes why she grew up in such a family, she won't exist at all

Pfffft since when does time travel need to make sense :P

"Paige takes part in an experiment she never imagined would work. She wakes up in her bed in 1981, and wonders at the possibilities - and dangers." :P

so difficult... she can spare past-Paige a few years of not knowing. Or give her a few more years of not-knowing. It would be more of a shock at the end, but at least she and Henry would be on the same level.
