Hey Laura. Yeah, she told me a bit about the reality that you come from.

How have Tommy and I gone from having one soul!mom to three? That's a new record, right?

I guess it must have been weird for you to find out?

Tommy- FYI, Laura comes from a place where like... two souls get squished together. One of the souls squished into her was Wanda's. Neither of them are as old as the Wanda we know either.

So far I'm the only one from there. I don't know that many people but I have teammates and my sister. She's not a twin though, she's younger.

Everything here is weird. America seems weird to me anyway but the only people who are familiar seem... incomplete. I never really thought about there being a Wanda old enough to have children either though I guess there's people like James and Morgan who are from everyone else's future.

	I don't think most people spend a lot of time thinking about alternate reality versions of themselves. Must suck for people to be here but not be the people that you know. ~~We know a bit about that.~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Probably not. It would probably be easier if they were just different versions but I think the soul thing makes some of them uncomfortable or like it's not really the same thing. It's okay though. I've been practicing making friends with people from other worlds. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So, part Wanda soul, part something else, but not our mom!Wanda? I mean if you go around advertising it then sure I can see how that would be a thing. I gotta ask 'cause curiosity killed the cat but does it have a huge impact on your day to day or is it like something you can ignore? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

It was mostly when I got here and everything was so confusing. It doesn't really come up much anymore. I told Pietro but we haven't really talked much otherwise and apart from that I think it's been a while, there's been a lot of people come from that world recently who probably don't know about it and I can't remember if any of my other friends do either. Usually it's more important to explain how I grew up really isolated because otherwise there's things people expect me to know that I don't and it's pretty obvious.

I don't think so? I don't know what it's like to only have one soul. I like being around Wanda though. It's comfortable and it's easier to understand things when she explains them.

So, focus on what's most important and let everything else fall into place. Might not run into the difficulties you've faced. Nobody would know you had two souls because it's not like it's a physical thing.

Not gonna lie I have no idea what it's like to have any sort of soul 'cause there's that whole argument that it exists but you don't know you have one until you lose 21 grams which people say is your soul leaving your body. How'd you find out you have two and how'd you pin it down to particular people? And does that mean you have two memories? Do you share the feelings that they do? And how'd you pick which one affects who you as a person and whether or not you wanna define yourself by the two souls or map out your own path?

I mean if one soul is only 21 grams then two would be 42 grams which if you think about it is NOT a huge amount of weight in comparison to the rest of the body.

~~I'm trying.~~

How did they come up with 21 grams?

Stephen figured it out first, I don't know exactly how. But then we all found out anyway when Requiem came in from outside our world with a big spider demon that eats souls and makes new realities out of them. A bunch of people followed her trying to stop her and we found out she used Infinity Stones to fold the universe in half. They were going to split us all in half but Stephen wouldn't let them so they duplicated everything first. Then later he showed me with the Eye of Agamodin. I can only figure out who people are from the similarities so I don't know who the other one is, I think it must be someone the people from Wanda's world don't know. But it's not like being two people. I have my own memories so I'm not going to do the same things as them.

Think somebody did some sort of study on the weight of a body after death and in every single case there was a loss of 21 grams which they speculated was the weight of the soul given that it was the same across a wide variety of people.

Sooo... that means we ought to get to know you as you and not just because you share a soul with a woman who in our world happens to be our mom.

Or am I missing the point?

	Weird. I don't know when people are going to think it matters. Wanda and Tony do but some I think don't and others I'm not sure about. It feels like it would be awkward not to at least bring it up. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, it's brought up, we got it and thanks for the heads up. Let's all move forward and agree we get to know each other without the whole two soul thing, yeah? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
