[The voice that comes from the comm is probably relatively familiar. Maybe. It's young. And it's not at all hoarse like listeners are probably expecting. And there's the faintest hint of a slightly off accent. But the profanity? Oh yeah. All that's the same.]

What the fuck?!

[Oh my. Did his voice crack on that last word? Yes. Yes, it

[...Oh.

Wait, that's Tan's ID. What the-- so it isn't just him that's suddenly... you know, not thirteen? Not that Tan was thirteen though, and-- and maybe some kid just accidentally picked it up somewhere?]

Are you okay?

[youngvirus]

[Oh, hi, Link. He's got no idea your age has changed, too! But he knows that ID and that way of texting and...hey, he thought Link wasn't talking to him.

...Whatever.]

I'm fucking weedy! What the hell is going on?!

[unamvirtus]

[Well, he still isn't very pleased-- but a bit of a more mature look at things tells him he should at least try and be civil.

Except that language is making him a little uncomfortable.]

What? I don't know what you mean.

[youngvirus]

[Sorry, Link. Tan's language was worse when he was a kid and going through that whole rebellious phase. Also before he got his mental "don't curse around kids" filter.]

Nothing fits!

This sucks.

[WHAT EVEN.]

i somehow cannot resist this. [audio]

[ntjstapwn]

Tch. You can say that again.

Who could? [audio]

[youngvirus]

Sure.

What the fuck.

[Little bit of a literalist, what?]

[audio]

[ntjstapwn]

*He laughs*

You have any ideas yet?

[youngvirus]

I dunno, I figured you'd have a better idea than me?

[Isn't it nice how he sees and recognizes Marco's ID and automatically assumes it's the same for the other guy?]

[lilstndrdpckge]

What?

[youngvirus]

What?

oh goodness...

[lilstndrdpckge]

What?

how could this possibly go wrong?

[youngvirus]

What.

[Tan's isn't the only voice that sounds strained. Herz's sounds like it's on the verge of cracking the entire reply.]

I--I understand you can't really, uh--

You--

You can't--can't really help him wanting to huhh--to--to help you, but please don't do anything dumb. He's, you know, he's--he's having a bad time.

[youngvirus]

[Wait, who--

Hang on, hang on, he knows that stutter, he really does.

He flips the comm over to video, will Herz respond in kind?]

Herz?!

[halfa_heart]

[...OKAY. NOT FAIR. This body is significantly less capable of ignoring the hormones your very pretty self is stirring up.]

...Y--

Yes.

[Crack.

He coughs, clears his throat.

...attempts to drop his voice to it's previous decimal. And fails.]

Hi.

[youngvirus]

[Do you see this grin, Herz? Do you? Oh god, look at him, Herz. He is so happy to hear from you. Look how happy he is. His younger self is apparently much more willing to admit he missed Herz than his older self is.]

Hi!

[He didn't miss that crack.]

You got younger, too? Lemme see!

[audio]

[thursdayevents]

[Okay, that's a familiar ID, but that voice...geez, is everyone younger?

The voice may be a little familiar, but Castiel's voice is nowhere near as deep as it usually is.]

Tanvir?

[youngvirus]

[He feels like he should know this ID, but it's not sticking in his head for some reason. The voice is only barely familiar.]

Yeah? Who's this?

[thursdayevents]

It's Castiel. I'm assuming you are younger-looking as well?
