Sounds as if it could be a fun premise: Si gets stuck in a timeloop where they try to Fix the timeline. Only for the stations of cannon to keep repeating no matter what they do.
I've seen that before.
It's really, really not fun.
Since the meta-effect is outside the "story" the rules are completely arbitrary and out-of-context.
That means they can't figure out any rule or overcome it, it's just inflicted on them randomly.
The end result is just a person standing around whining about how everything is hopeless until something randomly changes and they can finally fix things for no discernible reason.
