[OOC][PLOT] The Sixth Thread of Planning for Arc 1 - Arrivals
RE: [OOC][PLOT] The Sixth Thread of Planning for Arc 1 - Arrivals
Well, it's not so much glitches in the displacee delivery system, it's a slightly more general problem:



"Okay, I know the answer is probably one of those 'beyond the ken of mortal men' things, but I have to ask anyway..."

Urd blurted, "I don't mind telling you my three sizes."

Brent ignored it, "Why are we still getting new universes being merged into the Metacontinuity?"

"Oh, that one's easy.  That's how it's supposed to work."

"Huh?"

"Have you ever learned something new, like a family name that sounds weird to you -- and then you keep seeing that name in the next month or so in different places?"

"Yeah..." Brent feared that the point of this conversation was how dense he was.

"And then you just write it off as something you just never noticed before.  Or say you hear about some video game that everyone else has been playing for years, and you start to wonder why you're the last to know.  Well, there's a reason you feel that way.  Those feelings are what you experience when universes merge back together."

"Whoa," Brent keanued.

That's how it's supposed to work, where compatible timelines are woven back together.  Probabilities multiply, but they often converge, and it makes it easier to handle this way."

"So is it like a universe garbage collector or something?  Closing the dangling pointers?"

She shrugged, "If that's what your mortal mind can handle, sure."

"So why does it seem so strange here?  Too many universes?"

"Too many universes, and not all the right ones.  Other universes are still destabilizing, so they get dumped here, the most stable place for now.  But the integration of transfictional worlds means we can't smooth all the paradoxes."

"So we can expect more weirdos showing up.  Great?"  Some of the weirdos had been more fun than others, prompting his ambiguous response.

She smiled, "You got it!  Please excuse our mess as we fix the multiverse."

"Oh well, at least I don't feel so bad about not noticing things now, if it can't be helped."

Urd accused, "Are you sure about that?"

"I think?"

"So you didn't even notice what day it is?" Urd accused.

"Um, Thursday?"

"Our one-month anniversary!"

"Are we doing that?!"
