It's August already? That means I'm twenty-two...

Out of curiosity, if the castle let you grow normally, how much taller bigger should you be?

Like,

The castle gave me photos of my parents. I should be a foot taller than I am right now.

Do you mean normal for ourselves or normal for everyone? I don't think I'd be any bigger either way, but if I grew like everyone else, I'd probably be really, really old!

forever :U

[heliotroping]

Normal for yourself. I know some species take longer to age than most.

[pastina]

But it could take forever and ever if I grew up normal for me! Or I might not grow at all...it's all very confusing.

[heliotroping]

I know some people like that.

[pastina]

Really? You do?

[heliotroping]

Yes. Even back home we have "immortals".

[pastina]

But I'm not really immortal! I could die. It's just based on something different.

[heliotroping]

The Immortals weren't really immortal, but seemed like they were due to their long lives. Is it the same for you?

No idea! I'm fifteen, and I've been here for about seven months. I might've been done growing, though, I'm not sure.

he's still writing because he wants that extra foot in height

[heliotroping]

People generally don't, here.

ahaha and she just keeps talking

[nukeoleptic]

That's what I've been told. It kind of sucks - I want to finish growing up!

[heliotroping]

I know how you feel. I can't reach some of the shelves in the kitchen.

[nukeoleptic]

-- oh! I haven't had that problem for a while.

[ It's not.. usually an issue.. when you can fly. :') ]

[heliotroping]

[there's a slight delay]

Lucky.

[nukeoleptic]

[ She sounds a little sheepish. ]

Ehehe. Powers are nice.

[heliotroping]

Oh, I see. [that's a little better] Flight? The only physical boost I ever get is speed, which isn't as useful as flight.

One day, I may be able to though.

What, does it eat our growth too?

[heliotroping]

It stops it.

Except for hair and nails.

[nottallerordead]

That is so creepy in so many ways.

[heliotroping]

Only in hindsight.

[nottallerordead]

I'm pretty creeped out by it in foresight.

Where did you get the picture?

[heliotroping]

I got it on Christmas one year.

[nottallerordead]

And it just magically appeared under the tree?

[kindnessing]

There was once a castle change that grew me up a few years, equivalent to the time I've been here. I was about five centimeters taller. Adding all the time I've spent here and back home... I suppose I should be almost 170 centimeters.

[heliotroping]

That's a lot of growing held back.
