Once again, he produced his stack of playing cards and began to shuffle them as he thought. "Well, for one thing, it's not so much the multiverse as alternate versions of the same universe. There's a lot of different versions of the same people here, some more different than others..." His eyes narrowed when he thought about 1412 again, and the dead Shinichi, who was a nice guy, but still something he hoped wasn't very common.

"I haven't met very many other people yet, but so far there's one other version of me, one of Aoko-chan, one of Hakuba and... another you, who's Kudo Shinichi, and a ghost." Well it needed to be said, he was bound to meet that one eventually.

"Oh and then there's 1412, who I haven't met, but have heard plenty about."
