[- Jiro can't help sputtering a bit with that question, and - much like a dog that's been caught doing something it shouldn't - ends up looking away with her ears still pinned against her hair.]

W-well, I mean... I keep thinking about how there are different timelines and universes and stuff, you know. I can't say I really understand it as deep as you probably do? Since I really only know this stuff from sci-fi movies and whatever.
But like, when people show up here, there's no guarantee they're from the same version of your world that you are.

And because me'n Iida went through that other world together, that means we're really different from any other Iida or Jiro this world could've grabbed, right?
So we're more like... we're the Iida and Jiro here instead of the Iida and Jiro back home.

[She is absolutely not gonna admit that this could actually be a clone situation thanks to how that other world worked.
That's more like, third date material.

But now she's gonna pause for a moment, just to play with her straw.]

... I don't mean to make this all depressing or anything, though; I didn't really mean to say that out loud.
