"Oh, they're all in flux, I'll admit, but they're measurable and workable. Most of the concrete physical laws are just the averages of all the connected worlds, like gravity and magnetism and so on, but the more esoteric ones... in simple terms, everyone carries their own physics field which contains their own personal laws of physics that lets them keep their powers. When you use those powers on other people, the fields interact, which is why an empath from one universe and a telepath from a completely different one who work on completely different principles can still have a mental battle. For example."

"Now you're gettin' over my head. The laws of physics apply... individually? That's nuts. That's wacko," Tina blinks a few times. "It makes magic seem a little more... I dunno, sensible, I guess. But why? Why do they apply to an individual? I mean, what does your average joe have in relevance to the laws of the universe?"
