Voxophone 4/?? - Voice
[A strange experiment, Robert thinks, but he's grateful for it. It allowed for a demonstration of the capabilities of the world to Rosalind without providing an experience that might have injured her. Better, certainly, than his own first encounter with such things.
Now that it is is passed, though, they can resume their work.
It's the middle of the afternoon when he opens the Journal again. He's used it as a sort of voxophone before -- storing his thoughts and sharing them with others. There is no reason not to do it now.]
It remains my theory that this world we reside in does not exist parallel to other worlds but is, in fact, a tangent world, crossing many universes with many timelines at a metaphorical angle. [If it ran parallel, in his experience, there might be accounting for the variations on one particular world -- and it was still possible that everyone here was merely from extreme variations of the same world -- but not inconsistencies in timeline. A Booker DeWitt who stepped out of July 12th, 1912 would arrive in the world of Columbia on July 12th, 1912.
A tangent line, however, could take, for this example, a DeWitt from July 12th, 1912; an Elizabeth from February, 1909; a Rosalind from October 19th, 1899. It had not, but it answered for how such things -- as had been observed in their own case in a small way and in others' in much more noticeable strides -- happened.]
It is even possible that, rather than in a particular time or place, this "Luceti" occupies some stable portion of the possibility space. [If the possibility space was an infinite as he and Rosalind believed, then it, like worlds, contained infinite possibilities. A pocket of it might well house them now.] This would account for the variable nature of the world -- the ability to alter time, perception, and even the permanency of death.
There is no way to test this theory save to attempt to recreate our machine and access the Lutece Tear, so we are resolved.

And I always heard that the world's what's bringing us here, but I guess no one knows if it's 'cause of the world or something that was done to the world?

[He pauses, considering it.]
The problem is that, in my experience, crossing between worlds has a very taxing physical and mental kickback. The lack of it makes me think we are not in an actual world unto itself but a kind of stable zone of the possibility space.
Our minds and bodies do not have to adapt to a new reality because we have not actually entered one.

[ She's trying to figure this out. ]
An inbetween place?

THAT'S EVEN BETTER THAN DRAGONS. Ikki spins around, although through the voice function, there's only a squeal as she turns, happily. ]
In the sky? A whole city? Were there castles there? Can I see it someday? Did people know how to fly?

I wanna go there someday! And fly in the city!

It's quite marvellous to see.

But we don't have those at home...so, I haven't gone to one yet. I was gonna build one, though.
