Diary of the Lutece Twins

by Imaginator9

Columbia has fallen, the girl is free, and our job is finally done. My brother has presented me with an ultimatum: if we do not share with the universe our grim tale, he and I must part. Where he sees a story of redemption, I see King Lear. But he is my brother, so I shall play my part, knowing it shall all end in tears... - Rosalind Lutece, 1913

Entry #13

October 5th 1893

Mr. Comstock has been in my laboratory a lot lately, going in and out of tears. He always brings a journal with him, and I see him through the tear writing who knows what down. To date he has filled two journals now.

I have noticed that each time Mr. Comstock returns from a tear his appearance changes slightly. His more distinct facial features seem to deteriorate and he also seems to age much more rapidly. After a little under a months time he has grown a beard and aged almost 10 years. His eyes have also changed from green to blue.

I have a theory: Just as sexual reproduction can de-emphasize the traits of each parent, so goes the effect of multiple realities on our own. Your traits dissipate, until they become unrecognizable, or, cease to exist.
