Answering the old age question [video]

[likeits1999]

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?

I'm nineteen. But I think it may also be worth considering what our cultures are defining as adulthood, too? [ Since Tenten's answer has already made it clear that they're not all on the same page there. ] For perspective, you can legally enlist in the military at fifteen in Crossbell.

Oh dude, that's a good thought.

For the record, seventeen is not an age where you're allowed to do pretty much anything except drive.

It's also a really not normal vampire age anymore.

[cspd]

You can drive before you do other things, really?

[ Well how about that. ] Cars are still new enough in Zemuria that we don't have a lot of the legal infrastructure set to deal with them, so I guess I don't have a lot to compare to...

[ But man, it's a huge and easily lethal hunk of metal! Weird to think that's the first thing they let people do. ]

- sorry. Anyway, how is it not a normal vampire age? I...uh, I'm not sure how to phrase this without sounding super awkward. Is there...etiquette about biting adults over kids?
