tetronians walk amongst us

[monaroman]

techniquely tetronians could walk amongst us. take trionians for example. they can be 3d in flatspace, its just that dionians could only see the *normal* two dimensional being. therefore tetronian can walk in our world and seem normal, because we have not comprehension of the fourth dimension

If they walked among us, I would think that their body would intersect with our universe, and we would see whatever slice was intersecting. They could on the other hand be "out there" ("up" or "down" in the fourth dimension from our universe), in which case I'm not sure that saying they walk among us is quite accurate. I think they just trod on us, compressing our universe down, but of course we don't notice, because we can't perceive our 4 dimensional squish

only when they "squish" us from the fourth dimension will we not feel anything
that's just because we aren't "there"
so they would be essentially squishing nothing
however, if they had squeezed in a 3D direction with us being there, then yes, we would be squished.
and what we would see would just be a 3D blob of mass. that's is what intersects into our dimension for us to preceive.
