Answering the old age question [video]

Oh, hey, guys, I thought of something.

[ The group has had some time to catch their collective breaths, this isn't the first night. Kevin's mirror is hovering while he seems to be working on... something to do with the bolts on his skateboard. He had his skateboard stuff on him upon arrival because of course Kevin did. Anyone who actually knows anything about skating, though, would know it's unnecessary maintenance. Kevin's doing it to have something to do. ]

It's not, like, important. But I was wondering. How old is everybody?

[ He almost lets it go, but he's nervous so then he has to elaborate: ]

I mean, I know that my situation is super weird and I guess some other people's is too, but I am kind of wondering who all is like. The adultest.

I'm, uh, I was seventeen when I died but I guess I'm actually twenty-eight?

When I was cloned they did stuff to my brain to make me a certain maturity level and have the knowledge to match. They even put pop culture stuff in there. They were originally going to age me all the way to adulthood, but I got busted out of my test tube early, so when I broke out, I was physically and mentally fifteen.

It only took them a week to age me to that age.

Then I've been around four years, so I'm mentally 19.

The physical age thing is because when I was sixteen, I stopped physically aging for a year due to some stuff that was done to screw up my genes. The fix that saved my life froze me at that age, but after a year of not aging, it got fixed, so I started aging again. But it meant my body had aged one year less than my mind.
