Answer for question 4532.
Oct. 21st, 2015 05:37 am[Error: unknown template qotd]I find it utter and complete nonsense. That said, I did have fun playing with parallel universes in the past, usually in RPs but sometimes in blurbs. For some reason, though, even though I was perfectly fine having parallel versions of YGO characters or Sephiroth or Cloud or even the fictional Rockapella from the Carmen Sandiego canon, I have never quite been able to make myself imagine parallel versions of other characters, such as Ginger and Lou. And meanwhile, I absolutely adore the parallel universe Pony and human counterparts, particularly Twilight Sparkle. Two Twilights is twice the fun and the adorableness!
Trying to imagine parallel versions of real people is all at once amusing, unsettling, and bittersweet. Maybe some things would have gone better for them than here. Maybe other things would have gone worse. Maybe some people would still be alive, whereas here they're dead. Or vice versa.
If I met a parallel universe version of myself, my instant reaction would probably be WTH. What would happen after that would really depend on what the other me was like, so there are infinite possibilities. If she was personable, I suppose we'd sit down and discuss our worlds and what was different in each. If she wasn't personable, I'd get the heck out of there.
