[ Akira follows in step right behind her. She can think what she wants, for now. As long as he can keep an eye on her and her reactions, he'll be as polite and congenial as he needs to be. The fact that he hasn't seen any of his current family in his memories leads him to believe that his other self has no relation to them at all. In fact, if Retrospec is to be believed, their souls could have been from entirely different universes or realities. So finding someone who could possibly be from the same place is very important.
Especially due to the...questionable implications of a few of those memories. (Very questionable.) And if she really is as closely involved as he thinks she is, he'll need to make sure she doesn't divulge anything he has worked so hard to keep to himself.
Which is why he offers a small, amused smile to her comment.
Yes. Something like that. ]
We definitely have some similarities.
[ Which, to the point... ]
I know it's only been a few days for you, but have you received any visions or memories yet? For some people it's almost instantaneous.
[ She gives out a hum at the question, looking up and away in thought. ]
Oh, not really. Is it just some sudden thing that happens out of nowhere? If so, I haven't felt anything like that yet. [ In her perspective, she's expecting some super dramatic recollection of events, and there's definitely nothing like that going on. For a second, she fiddles with her fringe, wrinkling her nose at the thought of all this past memory stuff. ]
To be honest, I'm probably just gonna ignore whatever I remember anyway. I mean, it's not like it will make that big of a difference on the way I live my life now.
It varies. Some people experience it at the moment of a catalyst and others it can be weeks later.
[ Which means its only a matter of time before she inevitably sees something. He'll be curious to learn what it is. She can say that she'll ignore it, but no one remains unaffected by their visions. ]
You think so?
[ She's either that optimistic or that stupid if she thinks otherwise. ]
Well, I hope that works out for your sake. I'll be frank--not everyone's visions are pleasant.
I don't think that's a bad idea. My current theory is that all of this does have a basis in technology, even if the technology is far beyond our current understanding to the point that it would seem like magic. But if they supposedly have an engineering department and programmers working on the changes, it makes sense, doesn't it?
Although it's understandable that some of the changes that people have been experiencing on an individual level seem more magical than practical.

[ At least in her uninformed and naive opinion. ]
