I've been thinking and ( Offscreen there's a voice that just calls back you're always thinking, but Nautica continues on undaunted! No one asked you, Chromia. ) and I've been wondering about why we're here. Not about our purpose for being here - I've decided that for the moment to assume that all information regarding that is accurate because there just isn't a good way to quantitatively account for it when creating this particular dataset. Categorical variables, you know?
I mean I could account for it, but I'll be the first to admit that I'm making a large number of assumptions as it is and I'd like to minimize any further skewing of results.
( Someone hasn't actually gotten around to her point yet, and it's with another helpful cough from offscreen that Nautica snaps back to it. )
Oh! Right, sorry. Anyway, I was wondering if there's any correlation between arrivals and existing relationships. Take me, for example - Chromia and I are close friends, and there's any number of people that I know here. Although they might not know me yet - I suppose I could factor in timelines differences somehow-- ( She looks pensive for a moment, one finger tapping against her chin as she considers this. That shouldn't be too hard. ) But my hypothesis is that by arriving here, you increase the chance that others from your universe will eventually follow, and the closer the relationship the more likely that individual will show.
There's an attached survey. If you'd like to fill that out and respond to this post with it, I'd appreciate it. So, um, thank you? Preemptively.
( And flicking the video feed off, because she can hear her roommate groaning already. )

Pilouette, having been pulled into another world the previous year, is currently talking to a robot about the theory of multiple alternate universes. It takes Pilouette just a second to get over hearing the idea of being replaced by an alterate version of oneself (as silly as it is) being called improbable given the current situation. ...Though, she supposes it really is. Besides, from what Pilouette can gather, Nautica knows more about this kind of thing than she ever could, and is probably right.]
Hmm...like, I think I'm starting to get it now. [Kind of. A little bit. Maybe?] Even though you were asking people to answer stuff, I think I'm the one who ended up asking all kinds of questions. [She laughs, a little sheepishly.] Um, s-sorry...!

I don't mind at all. And if you have any more questions you can always ask and I'll do my best to answer them.
