[ There's a clatter, the device turning on. A narrow chest is visible, what looks like arms reaching out to the feed. Apparently it's on the floor, underneath its new owner. ]

Seimei..

[ Heavy breathing, and then an upside-down figure sits back on its heels. A young boy, black hair, and...cat ears? Sits there. Looks around. ]What-- What is this

Cat ears?

[ Voice ]

[dreadedlethe]

What-- There's nothing "with" my ears! They're-- I was born with them.

[ Voice ]

[harassmentgirl]

Born with them?

...Are you a cat?

[ Voice ]

[dreadedlethe]

Wh-- No, I'm not a cat! I'm a human, dammit!

[ Voice ]

[harassmentgirl]

But you have ears! Humans don't have ears!

[ Voice ]

[dreadedlethe]

I-- What, do you mean you don't have ears?! But..you sound like you're not much older than me!

[ Voice ]

[harassmentgirl]

I-

Well of course I have ears, stupid! But I don't have cat ears!

[ Voice ]

[dreadedlethe]

You're-- an adult, then? My mom would freak out...

[ Voice ]

[harassmentgirl]

...I don't know how old I am.

But what does that have to do with anything?

[ Voice ]

[dreadedlethe]

If your ears are gone, you're an adult! I thought that would be obvious...

[ Voice ]

[harassmentgirl]

B-but I never had ears to begin with! Does that mean I've always been an adult?

[ Voice ]

[dreadedlethe]

If you--

..you weren't born with them?

[ Voice ]

[harassmentgirl]

Of course not!! I'm not a cat-human like you!!

[ Voice ]

[dreadedlethe]

Well, we're all born like this where I'm from!

[ Voice ]

[harassmentgirl]

Well, that's just stupid! Why do you need ears?! And why don't adults have them?!

[ Voice ]

[dreadedlethe]

I don't know, we just are!! And-- And they go away when you become an adult!
