The experiment was a success.
in the Naruto universe, Namit drank 3 glasses of water. And he was capable of only one.
Namit found that focusing on their connection while drinking made it possible. It also helped that he overstuffed himself with water, so it was probably done instinctively.
"This.....do you guys realize the implications of this?" Amit wondered out loud.
'Yeah, we have a hive multi-dimensional body.' Namit rubbed his new name in.
"That's crazy. We are overthinkers. Right off the top of my head, I can think of at least ten ways this can be abused."
'Well, that also depends on how much this ability can do. Just because someone is a waterbender, doesn't mean he can control the entire ocean.' Mamit, the voice of reason spoke from the Marvel universe.
'What else can we share? Or is it really a hive body? Where we share everything inside our body? We gotta test more.' Amit thought to himself.
After all, Amit is currently stranded on an island with no idea where he is. If he could share anything with his other selves, that would solve so many problems and also provide many many extra abilities.
So, they spent the next few hours experimenting on how further this dimensional hive body went.
Experiment no. 1
Test: Water/food sharing capabilities inside the stomach.
Result: Success. The food and water was successfully transferred to the target recipient.
Extra information: The sender can send item without permission from the recipient.
Conclusion: Exciting. We can share the contents of an organ. For now stomach. More experiments are needed.
Experiment no. 2
Test: Wound sharing.
Method: Amit made a small scrape in his knee by scraping it on a rock. He then focused on Namit and tried to send that pain over.
Result: One minute of expletive swearing in the communication channel as Namit explained extensively using one particular word 'F*ck' multiple times that 3-year-olds are more sensitive to pain.
Conclusion: It was a success.
Experiment no. 3
Test: Foreign material transfer via methods unrelated to the stomach.
Method: Mamit seeing all the fun happening, decided to play and found a small pin in his father's room. He then inserted it into his skin in his forearm and focused on Namit again.
Result: One further minute of rapid 'Fuck you assholes' through the coms.
Conclusion: They can transfer anything across dimensions as long as it's inside their bodies.
So, there is a chance that their body is in a higher dimension and they are now mere three-dimensional reflections of their current 4-dimensional body.
'....', Amit.
'....', Namit.
'...Am I wrong guys?', Mamit.
"Where the fuck did that conclusion come from? Who are you? We aren't that smart.", Amit.
"Oh come on! We are that smart. We always were. You understood immediately what I meant." Mamit said with a scowl.
"We did, but man, that is an epic revelation. It's been a while since we last had one." Namit said.
'So, what's next? What does this mean?' Mamit wondered.
"We test more. If that is true, we are the same person. That means we can share our mental and physical fatigue and strengths. One can probably eat for all three of us, or sleep or maybe even shit." Amit thought aloud.
'Can we share our age?' Namit put his thoughts in.
"Maybe. But probably not death." Amit said.
"What does death mean for us then though? What happens when one of us dies? Does only that incarnation of us die? Do we all die? Do we even die? Are we even human? How do we test.." Namit was hyperventilating as he thought of just these possibilities.
"Calm yourself. No need to hurry. We have a lifetime to think about these issues. For now, let's keep that thought on the back." Amit said to Namit and to a certain extent, himself.
The main issue at the back of all three of their heads is the 'reflection of a 4-dimensional being' part.
That makes perfect sense for their current status. Yet what it means is that they are 3-dimensional brains stuck in a 4-dimensional body.
Their brains are incapable of comprehending the 4th dimension while their body is already at that stage.
Are they really all the same person? Or are they different souls, with just similar memories?
So many questions, with very few ways to verify.
"I think we should think of happier things at the moment. Let's not over think anymore. Let's all agree for now, Amit has a golden finger that allows him to connect with two more parallel versions of himself in two other universes.
Those two other universes: Marvel and Naruto.
We are both very young here.
Meanwhile, Amit is probably 20 there.
Are we clear? No more 4-dimensional-being thoughts for now.
From now on, we are dumb isekai protagonists who do not get existential dread. Since they are too stupid to realize the horrible implications of their existence.
Capiche?" Mamit, the brilliant concluded.
"Amen." Namit the cusser.
"Agreed." Amit the wannabe leader.
'...',Mamit.
'...', Namit.
The awkward silence went on for a few seconds.
"So..uhh, anyone has any plans for their universe?" Amit said in an attempt to remove the awkwardness.
"I wanna be an avenger." Mamit from marvel brilliantly answered.
"I wanna be inside the infinite tsukoyomi." Namit the stupid said.
'.....', Mamit.
"...Bro what's wrong with you?" Amit the homeless succinctly shared his opinion.
"What? It should be fun. Imagine yourself in a customizable universe. Like a matrix that you control. Don't you want to be in there?" Namit the delusional asked.
"Alright, I've had enough of myself. I'm gonna go explore the island." Amit the explorer ended.
"I'm gonna go watch cartoon American propaganda for the fifth time this week." Mamit the three-year-old ended.
'.......',Namit.
"Fuck you guys. I am right!", Namit the right.
And with that the day's session came to an end.
