[He's looked for Flora for a while now, but he hasn't seen any sign of her. No way to contact her, she's not in her room, in fact it's like she was never here at all.

He hopes that she was sent back. He was never her Luke to begin with - the real one was back home with the Professor. He would always be the copy of Luke that Mayfield made. But it hurt at lot more then he was expecting. He wanted to pretend a little while longer...

And then there was that part of him that didn't trust this place to actually send her home.]

Do we know for sure if you get sent back home once you "leave" this place? My friend went missing, and while I'd like to believe they sent her off back home, I can't really be sure if that's what they really did or if they're keeping her somewhere.

I mean, I hope that's what they did. She'd be happier there. But I just want to be sure...

[He's quiet for a little while before speaking again. He decides to ask a question that's been on his mind for a while.]

I also had another question - a hypothetical one, if you will. Say that you met someone who was like you in every way, from appearance to personality, except that they aren't actually the real you, but just a copy. How would you treat them, knowing that they aren't actually you?

['But we've no choice but to try'. Is what she'd like to say, but not over the open network.]

Well, the version of me specifically was just an asshat. I was dumb when I was a kid. As for the other guy... well, he and his duplicate basically did the same thing, so not much animosity between them there...

Goodness, that sounds really complicated. [And he thought he had it rough being just one clone.] So um, how did you get so many duplicates?

[agelostdoll]

This place drags people in even from alternate timelines by the sounds of it. Duplicates were the alternative versions of us.

[Alternate timelines...it made sense, but it still makes his blood run cold. What if the real Luke actually does show up? The thought makes him feel sick to his stomach.]

You'd think once is good enough.
