Trying to visualize a five dimensional hypercube makes my head hurt. Chances are it's not though. Trying to manage a five dimensional location would be more than just moving millions of uncatalogued books around. By all intents, it would look like two things are occupying the same space to a 3 Dimensional observation. (Imagine sticking two books in one spot. Yet not. Just visualizing how that works makes one's head throb a little.)
EDIT: On an unrelated note, a snippet of the most recent chapter work, finally broke past a wall here...
Spoiler for Small teaser.:
Anything else the General might have said was cut off at this Point. Crash made his way up to the double doors of the Difac and gave them a push inwards. The pilot only made it about two steps into the cafeteria before he was nearly blown off his feet by an earth shaking cheer.
Nanoha and Fate came to a dead stop as Crash litterally jumped in surprise. Something they hadn't seen him do. Only a few seconds later, they were swarmed with a number of support staffers and engineers.
"That was totally awesome!" one of them managed to say.
"You went like this, she went like that, and then you were just GONE!" another interrupted.
"And then you brought out that huge sword!" must have been directed at Fate.
"The top of the sky with that jet!" yet another of the many engineers, directed at Nanoha.
Nanoha and Fate were used to a little fame from their work. But they'd never gotten swarmed like this before. Crash seemed nearly freaked out however. He always seemed more imfamous than famous, even among people he knew so well like all the Engineers here. But now they were up in his face like they'd never been, talking faster than he could catch, and asking questions he couldn't answer.
"How fast were you going?"
"How did you escape those binds?"
"What went through your mind when you were trying that long range shot?"
"Which one are you going to sleep with tonight?"
If Crash could figure out who asked the last question, he'd have someone to punch in the nose and make himself an opening. Judging by the way hairs started standing up on the back of his neck, he absentmindely guessed the girls heard it too. They were only a foot away after all.
The rest of the group managed to make their way into the door and could hardly belive how the three were the center of one big, as Roland called it, 'gaggle.' The word was actually a composite, but the General thought the extra explicative that went on the end wasn't needed in the company of ladies.
"What the hell is going on?" he squinted in confusion. Hayate glanced around, trying to see over people's shoulders, then pointed discreetly at the far wall.
The large screen that sat in the center showed a rather high quality detail replay of the fight. It showed Crash and Nanoha in a steep dive... obviously in the last few minutes of the replay.
"Lime." the General nodded in understanding.
