[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

...Hope?

nope, voice here. :X

[escapedpandora]

[There's a startled, strangled noise.]

--Hi, Ahiru.

[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!

[hybrid_prodigy]

Actually, she did make some people older, too. My friend Soul was one of those. He was back to normal after about a week, though.

[escapedpandora]

...At least I'm not the only one.

A week. [There's an altogether still too teenaged sigh of despondence.] I guess I'll have to get new clothes.

[hybrid_prodigy]

Do you have anyone you could just borrow them from?

[escapedpandora]

Um.

[Awkward, awkward.]

That's kind of-- [He makes a strangled noise.] Not really? I don't know?

[yamatopetals]

Turning... people into children? S-Something like that is possible?

[newbie still getting used to weird stuff happening...]

[escapedpandora]

Umm...

[He's not sure he should be the one explaining this, especially since she sounds confused enough to be pretty new to this place.]

Pretty much, yeah? At least, there's a person here who can do it. But she's wanted by the police, and I guess she doesn't take very well to being told that when she's following you.

[yamatopetals]

I-I see... [asdghasd pheeew, this place]

It really is amazing what the people here can do.

[escapedpandora]

You just-- have to remember that most people here can do something? I think it makes it easier when you remember that, 'cause then you can deal with people like they all have hidden powers, which they kind of do.

But. Um. She's on the news, and if you do see her-- just walk away. Really.

[all_sweetheart]

I know some people that were turned into kids. Maybe she got bored with that and decided to not turn this place into a daycare center. Unless you'd have rather been made younger.

voice. no way he's doing video right now. o_o

[escapedpandora]

...I'd rather have been left alone by her, actually.

But I guess it's better than people trying to take me seriously if I've been... I don't know, de-aged or something.

[all_sweetheart]

Exactly. Plus you mentioned something about being taller? See, there's a plus.

[escapedpandora]

[His tone does brighten considerably at the mention of being taller.]

Yeah, I guess so.

Guess I'll just-- have to get new clothes. It shouldn't be that long, right?

Video

[sergeantperks]

[Faintly amused by this.] How tall are you now?

voice.

[escapedpandora]

Uhh.

A lot taller than I'm used to! I'll have to--

[Look for a pen, mark it in the doorframe, and then figure out how tall that was.]

Um. Figure it out, I guess.

Video

[sergeantperks]

[Chuckles] You sound different too. It took me a moment to work out it was you. I suppose you'll get used to it? Probably just before you change back.

voice.

[escapedpandora]

Then I'd have to get used to being 'normal' again. Great.

[Still, the tone is more exasperated than irritated.]

I kind of wish the police would just catch her already.
