let it all flow out like a river running

[maidofmistakes]

So, uh... anybody have any idea how wormholes in space work? I mean, I'm trying to look it up, but all these theories are kind of contradicting each other. One page said you could only go back, and I'm pretty sure I remember going forward. Wait, am I getting ahead of myself?

Scrap that. New question. Sorry. Uh, does physics work the same in all your other versions' worlds or is that different too?

why are you asking

[matchbreaker]

What?

I don't get this at all, sorry?

Though I suppose mine does, I don't think a bat tornado would work normally.

[maidofmistakes]

Just kind of wondering. I mean, we're putting together our memories in our heads with what we know about this world, right?

[maidofmistakes]

Well, uh... it's kind of a long story. I was looking up wormhole physics theories because I remembered something.

[matchbreaker]

Oh, okay.

Those do pretty much everything in various movies.

[maidofmistakes]

I guess after my planet blew up, I was going through space to somewhere safe and got caught in one of those. I ended up on Earth super late. Like, my baby cousin was there too somehow, but he was already an adult.

[matchbreaker]

[ . . . Oh.

she's open enough to say that in public. But. Whoa. ]

That had to have been confusing. Wow.

[maidofmistakes]

Yeah... It's freaking me out. So I wanted to know if anyone else knew if things worked differently in their worlds, besides the whole superpowers thing.

[matchbreaker]

Well I can't answer for something like that, but I can tell you vampires exist and a lot about them. So do ghosts? (but then ghosts exist here too)

[maidofmistakes]

I guess those ghosts in the subway count, yeah... but that's sort of a Retrospec thing, too, isn't it?

[matchbreaker]

I meant the ghosts in my house and around town.

... There's ghosts in the subway too?

[maidofmistakes]

There were a couple months ago. Maybe they're gone or something.

[matchbreaker]

I mean the subway's still not running.

But no, there's ghosts all over the place. I'm still not clear if they were always there and I'm able to see them now or if they got put there later.

[maidofmistakes]

That is weird. So vampires can see ghosts? Is it because they're both dead? Sorry, that sounds weird.

[matchbreaker]

Vampires aren't dead.

I don't know though, I know that was the case in the other world. Her granddaughter was particularly good at working with them!

[maidofmistakes]

Okay, uh, not dead. Undead. Sorry, I don't know too much about this stuff. Working how?

[matchbreaker]

Not undead.

Vampires (at least the ones from that world) are living creatures: they're born and they die.

But she could shove ghosts into dolls.

[maidofmistakes]

Sorry. It sounds kind of creepy, but you probably got that a lot.

[matchbreaker]

Hope you mean the dolls there!

[maidofmistakes]

Yeah? I don't know what else I would mean.

[matchbreaker]

Living vampires?

The context was a little weird that's all.

Anyway, time traveling through space?

[maidofmistakes]

Yeah, I guess so. So I looked it up when I remembered it and the internet said you could only go backward, which is weird because I'm pretty sure I went forward.

[matchbreaker]

Maybe it's more like time stopped for you for a while? Is that possible?

[maidofmistakes]

Maybe? But space working differently seems to make more sense.

[matchbreaker]

I guess? Has anyone even been through a wormhole though? Physics isn't perfect.
