… You could be right. If we’re all from different universes, even planes of existence, then who is to say that we aren’t somehow present in each other’s alternate realities? Interesting. I’d never even considered… I mean, it is impossible to test, unless one of us recognized someone else, but it’s still worth noting. [ Little does he know of the few people who have passed through Wonderland that do share their exact appearance and voice with another visitor, the two of them physically identical. Wirt may actually be on to something here. ]
And if we were to draw a more direct comparison between that idea and where we are now- the idea that we’re merely projecting outwards, or that we even have the power to alter this reality in that way- then what you could be implying is that Wonderland isn’t a physical place at all, but a… a sort of only semi-tangible place. One that is influenced by those of us who pass through it, like a dream would be. That explains how it uses our memories, how it even accesses them in the first place, it’s malleability- [ His eyes have widened, then glance quickly around whatever room he’s in before settling, wonderingly, back on Wirt’s image on the communicator. ] This is... an entirely new theory.
