I decided to surprise Dad and walk both my real body and the android of adult me back to the Status Room. It was slower than normal walking, and I had a little trouble going around corners, but I managed it. The two of me walked in side by side.
"Hey, Dad," adult me said.
"How's it going?" I asked with my eight-year-old self.
He got a puzzled look on his face at the second voice. He had been reading some information on the display wall and didn't see us walk in. His brow was furrowed when he turned to me/us. He looked from one to the other, blinked a couple of times, then back to the other. Both of me smiled. "I'm teaching myself how to be in two places at once," little me said.
"Pretty cool, huh?" My adult form continued.
"It is pretty cool," Dad agreed, "but kind of weird, too. How does it work?"
