I've worked with such technology before. Dimensional travel is just teleportation on a grander scale, so it's hardly outside of my capabilities. [whether that's overconfidence or not is still up for debate, but at least he's determined to try.]

Japan... never heard of it. Give me more details. History, architecture—this world copies things, are there any locations here that are familiar to you? A name alone is useless to me.

[forethinking]

(That is actually cool? He pictured that Add knew of technology he couldn't even imagine, but this confirms his suspicions either way.

History and architecture... He spent a lot of time in class making Molotovs, so it's fair to say he isn't the most reliable source. The other part, though, he can answer.)

Many. Part of the school, the bathhouse, part of this cafe and the subway. (He omits Mementos, because that's not exactly Japan, it's the Metaverse itself.)

[psychokinesia]

Interesting. So there's a fair bit of representation here... [more than he can say for his own world, anyway. Yeah, let's just not talk about the monstrosity that is meatmentos.]

Let's start with this cafe, then. "Heavenly Blanc" doesn't appear to be the original name for this place, and it's obvious that the decorations clash with each other. What parts are the ones that are familiar to you? Also, do you know of any others here from Japan?

[forethinking]

No. It's LeBlanc.

(It's probably the tenth time Ren has had this conversation, but this was mostly at the beginning, when the concept was a mystery and the feeling was new. It does occur to him that he never spoke to Add about these things though, and perhaps the other has information Ren may have overlooked.

The boy takes his cup of coffee and his probation notebook that rests inside the jacket hanged on the wall to sit next to the other. It's easier that way. He writes everything down.)

Everything that looks more like a cafe and the attic, (Read: His room.) There are more Japanese people here than not, although from different realities, I suppose.

[Ah, notes—he can appreciate someone who bothers to keep notes. He nods along to Ren's answer as he stirs his sugary coffee.]

So that leaves the "Heavenly" part. Different realities... hmm, yes, that matches what I've heard as well. Different points in time, either from the same timeline or with minor differences between. I haven't encountered anyone else from Elrios, but it does seem like there are a few "groups" here from similar worlds.

Have you discovered anything on your own that's worth noting? [since he knows now that Ren's already been keeping track of this sort of stuff—better to just skip the formalities and go straight for the Good Shit™]

[forethinking]

Nothing that you haven't, I believe.

(On the page, there's the respective world of each monument that he has the answer to. Perhaps, if Add is observant to the contents of the notebook, he will notice Mementos being under his own category.)

I don't think there's a pattern or logic on what shows.
