"So, you think the 'hammerspace' ability is just reaching back into your personal timeline, grabbing, and pulling what you've grabbed to the present?"
"That's an oversimplification, but it's possible," Washuu-chan replied. "I don't like spreading that hypothesis around because of how badly it can be abused."
"Hang on," Rob said. "If you're worried about duplicating rare items, I've never seen anybody pull anything out of hammerspace twice at the same time."
Washuu thought for a moment. "I don't recall any cases like that, either. But we both know about one case where somebody's personal timeline goes through closely-parallel universes -- and she can already manipulate time. If I'm right, it's just a minor matter of extending her powers for her to be able to grab from multiple timelines."
Rob suddenly realized exactly what Washuu-chan was worried about. "Oh! Yeah, let's not tell her. She might not want to put them back."
