"Well, yes. That's the most of it." Lots of clones of himself could be made. Upper limits to how many dupes he could have out at once had not yet been found, but he knew that around twenty or so he started having weird déjà vu problems upon re-absorbing, so he kept it well below that number whenever possible. And the dupes were different aspects of his personality so they could be quite a problem, but that was not anything he really needed to explain to Laura. Unless she really wanted to hear, which he doubted, she just seemed shell shocked by it all.
"My dupes tend to be a little more, uh. Random, or quirky, or just odd. They're all fragments of my personality, so if they're really strange, just smile and nod. They tend to entertain themselves." It was strange to explain, but he thought it better to give warning.
