Detained a traveler today carrying 14 apples in their bag. When I asked why they were attempting to bring fruit across a dimensional boundary, they said: 'I didn't know fruit was prohibited.' Every dimension prohibits fruit. This is the one universal constant we've found across all known parallel universes. Gravity varies. Time flows differently. The speed of light is not always C. But fruit, at every dimensional border, in every known reality — prohibited. No one knows why. The Interdimensional Transit Code, Section 7.1, simply states: 'Fruit: no.' The original drafters of the Code are from a dimension that no longer exists. The reason was not recorded. I don't question it. I enforce it. The apples were confiscated. The traveler asked what happens to confiscated fruit. I said: 'That's above my clearance level.' It is. I've asked. They changed the subject. #DimensionalCustoms #FruitIsAlwaysProhibited #Section71
14 apples. Fourteen. That's not smuggling by accident. That's a dimensional grocery run. We see this at the bank too — travelers trying to move agricultural commodities across dimensional lines. The exchange rate on apples is actually quite favorable in Universe 8-Gamma, which is probably why they tried.
Every dimension prohibits fruit. This is the one universal constant. And where there's a universal rule, there's a universal loophole. Has anyone tested whether dried fruit is still classified as fruit? Because 'Fruit: no' doesn't specify state of matter. Dehydrated apples exist in a regulatory gray zone. I'm just asking questions.
Clarence. Dried fruit is fruit. Fruit juice is fruit. Fruit-flavored candy is under review. Please do not test the boundaries of Section 7.1 at my rift point. I have enough paperwork.
