A big flaming stink posted:seems like the prime powers method works well here: Nah, this also only works for countable numbers. This argument breaks apart for real numbers since there are numbers x and y, such that 3^x = 5^y. In that case you would need to put them into the same room. I.e. steal the same Annie. Specifically, that happens on the line y = x*log(3)/log(5). Bongo Bill posted:Looks like Loup knows more about countable infinities than you do! Can't argue with that. Maybe Loup just knows how to count "uncountable" infinities.

Couldn't you just steal them from the subset of the Reals that corresponds to the integers? You don't need to steal from every universe.

Otherwise universes corresponding to nonrepeating nonterminating numbers will have 3 Annies. I bet the Loups in those universes would be very ... irrational

Robo-Slap posted:You do. Otherwise universes corresponding to nonrepeating nonterminating numbers will have 3 Annies. I guess the point I'm making is that if there are infinite universes, why would all of them have a Loup? So you don't need to steal from every universe. Or an Annie for that matter. And if that's the case, to don't need to steal from the non-Loup ones. You just need an infinite number of Annie's. If only the integer universes steal from each other, it's not a problem? In concision, Kat is right.

Not quite.... there's a subset of countably infinite universes that Coyote never gave his strength to Ysengrin in... but there's also a subset of countably infinite universes where Loup formed. Within that, you have a countably infinite subset where Loup stole an Annie. We are in that last subset.

For every universe without a Loup, there's another one with two of them.

If Loup did not exist we would have had to create him.

I really do like that the Annies have a different style with their make up and their choice of clothing. It would be really annoying if you couldn't keep them apart.

The most rash thing I can see Kat doing is banishing them both from this timeline, but I doubt she has the tech, so who knows what's about to happen.cant cook creole bream posted:I really do like that the Annies have a different style with their make up and their choice of clothing.

I feel like I'm getting a different read on this conversation than the rest of the thread. To me it just seems like Kat is struggling with this whole situation and is tired of suppressing it, and Annie and Annie operating in total synthesis to tell her how much they care about her is the opposite of what she wanted to hear. Every time they both share the same thought with her like this it reinforces that it is real, it is possible, and it's totally inexplicable right now and possibly will be forever.

Every time they both share the same thought with her like this it reinforces that it is real, it is possible, and it's totally inexplicable right now and possibly will be forever. Yeah this is my read too. Up until know I don't think Kat ever really believed all of the stuff Coyote did, assuming Annie even told her the details. Everything that Coyote did that made it to the Court - like his tooth, or knocking over a building - is normal, laws-of-physics stuff; the fact that he is an actual literal god isn't something she ever had to confront. Her first interactions with Shadow involved studying him to see how he worked. She's met ghosts and psychopomps but all that meant is that souls exist, and probably have material properties. She's surrounded by weirdness, but nothing so weird that you can't reasonably believe there's laws underpinning it. Until suddenly she has two best friends. Now she has to reconcile her physicalist worldview with the fact that a god who can just ignore inconvenient physical laws lives down the road. All of the stories she's heard about Coyote's bizarre incorporeality are no longer just legends and colourful language, they're actual things that happened that have no possible physical explanation. It's not about the problem of having multiple Annies, it's the problem of Loup - and Coyote and any of the others - existing.

I imagine their response to what Kat said is extremely overwhelming in these circumstances. The problem is there are two Annies, and now both these Annies are literally surrounding Kat telling her how great she is while that is far from Kat's issue. Annie: continuing to not "get it" socially.

I thought she was crying about the fact that one of the Annies was taken from another timeline and will have to either be banished from this world or leave the other timeline with a very sad Kat who's friend got killed at age 17 as far as she knows.
