[Hope might sound a bit... strange. Not sick, but just a bit more mature. And are the cracks in his voice gone? Either way, the tone is clearly disgruntled.]

I thought that person in the news turned people into kids.

[There's a pause, the embarrassment thick enough in the silence that it's hard to miss.]Kind of glad that I was pretty much home

[quackery]

...Hope?

nope, voice here. :X

[escapedpandora]

[There's a startled, strangled noise.]

--Hi, Ahiru.

video gdi X(

[quackery]

That's, um...

Are you alright?

no, voice. =(

[escapedpandora]

Fine, fine--

[There's a crashing noise. Nope, not used to longer limbs.]

I'm fine!

video is cooler, hope....... :C

[quackery]

T-T-T-Then what was that?

Not when he doesn't have clothes that fit anymore. =X

[escapedpandora]

I'm just-- getting used to it, I guess.

Someone said it'll only last for a week, so I guess I should--

[Crashing noises. Should get used to them.]

--Just get through it.

.........oh yeah that NEVER MIND

[quackery]

But you're not hurting yourself or anything, right? How old are you?

[escapedpandora]

I don't know-- how do you tell how old you are?

[There's a pause while he rubs his knee where he banged it against the desk. The second statement sounds a bit more upbeat, though.]

...I'm taller!

[quackery]

How old do you look, though?

Lucky.

[escapedpandora]

Um.

[Mirror, mirror. You can't see it, but he has to actually look for a moment.]

O-older? Twenty? Twenty-three? [There's a pause.] ...Twenty-five? I don't know?

[And this is also why he knows guys should never ask the ages of girls.]

[quackery]

...How old were you before?

[escapedpandora]

Fourteen.

[The answer came easily enough, but then came the hesitation.]

....Fifteen?

[quackery]

You don't know?

[escapedpandora]

We kind of had a different calendar system going on back home.

How long have I been here--? Probably about fifteen, yeah. Um. Maybe.

[quackery]

Different like how?

[escapedpandora]

Months? Seasons?

It didn't get this hot or cold, that's for sure. So, um. Yeah, should be fifteen now. [Fifteen and half a month, probably.]

Well. Not now, actually. I don't know how old I'm supposed to be now.
