[The more that Sherlock rattles off the differences between them, the more disquieted Yujin appears. (He's never heard of this Lupin character, either: who on Earth could that be?)

I cannot pretend that I understand this, but the orbs are capable of strange, magnificent things. They pull us from any number of worlds and timelines with ease. Why not worlds and timelines that are nearer than most?

And you aren't what I remember of a younger Sholmes, either. [Maybe levity will help? This whole situation is so bizarre, it's all Yujin can think of to cope with it. He goes on, slightly wry:] He's blonde, for one.
