[ Curiosity piqued by this potential 'ridiculous' question, Yuta doesn't even hesitate nodding. ]
Sure.
[ He's all ears and attentive interest. Even cautious about tipping his hand too much as he is, he can't help being intrigued. The question she ends up asking is certainly unusual, but not something he would consider that ridiculous. Then again, his definition of normal might be a bit skewed after the kind of life he's been living. He doesn't appear too fazed now that they've settled on this subject. She stays so calm too, making it seem all the more normal. (For all he knows about speed dating, this kind of discussion just might be. He could be easily convinced of it.) ]
Another me, huh? [ Give him a second, alternate universes aren't actually in his wheelhouse of experiences and he's giving this due consideration, hand raising to his chin as he leans back in his seat. ] Hmm... I would think we have different souls. After all, a person is shaped by their experiences so if this other me made different choices possibly in entirely different circumstances too, it would make sense that their soul would be different from mine. Maybe our souls started out the same or similarly, but they wouldn't be shared, I don't think.
[ Knowing how malleable a soul is from information back home, that's the conclusion he arrives at by the end of his pondering. Who knows, maybe he's completely wrong. ]
