[Voice] - 3 out of 6 of my chars are talking to Robert right now xD curiousgenius June 7 2011, 19:56:38 UTC
I see... I suppose that then if for you the technology there is from the twenty first century, the technology level you would expect from my world would be minimal, then. It's a bit amusing.

[She giggles.]

We don't use teleporters in my world, but I know they can be done. Though I agree that they defy physics. But so do time machines or watches that reduce your size down to the same size of a toy.

[Bulma hums as he continues. She is noticing that he seems to have problems with talking, but she can't know why. She could ask but it seems rude, normally she doesn't have many problems with being rude but she's still settling down and doesn't want to create a negative image. So for now she lets it slip, though she will inquiry if she feels it's getting too noticeable to be ignored.]

When you say "where most of us come from", do you refer to a planet with human habitants? I've noticed that most of the people here have the same appearance as humans, but from experience I know it doesn't mean we all come from similar planets or even alternative versions of the same planet.

[Voice] - oh pfft I actually had to look that up to realize semper_cogitans June 8 2011, 04:57:53 UTC
W-Well, at this point I have... abandoned my p-prior misconceptions of how the t-time of d-different multiversions relates to my own...

M-most places are very different from Terra. For e-example, there are p-paranormal elements in L-Luceti - and many other worlds - that d-do not exist in my own multiverse at all.

... Time machines...? Size manipulation devices...? [Now those are things Terra does not have - again, because of the fact they defy conventional physics.

And Robert will explain if asked, though he'll be embarrassed and sad most likely... that won't stop him from giving a coherent explanation, though. Not much would, really.]

Well, m-most Lucetians seem to be Homo sapiens of a s-sort, and many are from the s-same general cluster of pre-Terran multiversions - "Earth", they c-call it, usually...

... But you are r-right, there are people who c-come from outside of those p-parameters as well. Even a few h-hominid sapients... though I kn-know very little about that.

That's a logical stance, actually one can't even really think that time of different planets in the same universe relates from one planet to another. Specially seeing how some civilizations may have several calendars over the course of their history.

[She doubts the Namekians are counting years now continuing from the count of their old planet. But it may be possible, then again they are so pacific and rural that it's wouldn't be strange to be told that they are in their first century yet or whatever.]

Paranormal elements, you mean like ghosts and the like, right? There's none of those at your world then? Or is it just that their existence hasn't been proved nor denied yet?

[It's logical enough to Robert, anyway. Though in his current state - fretting constantly about the safety of his drafted friends - logic is harder to come by.]

Th-there are... none, as far as a-anybody is aware.

Though one cannot... prove a n-negative. [Still, he's strongly inclined to say that there isn't any, especially given the evidence of Luceti itself.]

So their existence hasn't been proved or denied. And there aren't even stories of anything like that happening? Even if they can't be proved true or not?

[Robert shakes his head.] There have... not been a-any such stories since the general adoption of w-widespread science and reason...

[Which, to him, seems to indicate a possible correlation.]

Th-that, and my physics have been... demonstrated to differ, h-here in Luceti.

General adoption? What do you mean, science and reason weren't used before?

[The idea that science may not be accepted somewhere is mind blowing for her. Sure there are always rural areas but those are different, it's not denial it's ignorance. On the other hand she also can't imagine how science would immediately negate any magic or such from existing. Come on, she has built machines to track down magical devices, it's pretty obvious for her there's no need for both concepts to fight each other.]

Seeing what the base of Luceti's existence seems to be I'm not surprised about anyone's physics differing in here from everyone else's.

Oh, they w-were, of course. But... not as ubiquitously. S-Simply put, much of the ignorance of pre-Terran humans was... discarded.

[For Robert, the idea that magic and science are somehow compatible is only one that he developed after being in Luceti, and seeing other worlds' magic as some form of physics-variation.

... His own world simply can't support magic.]

W-Well... I have some d-direct evidence, albeit I... should probably repeat that experiment before... drawing conclusions.
