CONFUSION! Just How Many Lookalikes ARE There?! [Video]

[The video flicks on to a very perplexed-looking Lina with folded arms and a crossed leg, relaxing in her chair.]

So...uh.

People in charge, or people who've been here a while, I guess - is this some kind of person-copy-making place? 'Cause I keep seeing a bunch of guys that look like Link, and either I keep runnin' into the same blue-eyed and fuzzy-headed kid in different clothes, or there's more than one of him runnin' around.

[She pauses, then leans forward, giving the camera the stinkeye.]

So whoever's in charge - if you are makin' copies of people, don't copy me! Someone already tried that at home, twice, and it didn't go very well either time!

[The fact that her and the others kind of violently tampered with the equipment causing the copies to fail and the building to collapse goes unmentioned - nor the fact that the other was a polar opposite weepy pacifist made by a magic mirror.]

They're not copies.

They're people from similar timelines who were also taken here. Same person, but their life is likely entirely different. So, if they 'did' take another version of you from somewhere, she might be someone entirely different from you. There's no real copying involved.

[ Trust him, Lina. He knows. ]

...

That's weird.

[Understatement of the year, Miss Inverse.]

Well, then, think of it this way: they're people who happen to share your name and look similar. ... I know someone from a different universe to mine that's supposedly my 'double,' but we're very different, and we were both kidnapped to this place.

If we hand been copied, I'd think that would have happened IN the Tower.

...huh. So it's like having a whole world made by the Shadow Reflector, then. [She rubs her chin, making a face of concentration.]
