Well the stuff we know its already breaking down badly when we get really really close to big bang, so I think its a reasonable assumption to think that on a different universe things might be different, and its not breaking the laws if the laws are innate to our conditions of universe, it would only apply to other universes if those also had all conditions of our universe, and they might not do so.

It makes no more sense to think things would be different than to think that they would be the same. Matter of fact, it makes more sense to think they would be the same. Regardless, they would have to be different in a special way. Capable of doing magical things, and capable of doing those magical things inside our space. That's a pretty specific set of 'different'.
