Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: on the SS Blameless!
When: like two days ago, probably.

[ action. ]

[ Ritsuka arrives on the SS Blameless in a confusing fanfare of confetti. Apparently he'd arrived once the Shuffle actually began, because he looks incredibly disoriented. It had been a very quick jump from the Marsiva to the Blameless, and he's trying to get his bearings.

He doesn't even care that he has confetti all over him, not when he's noticing his clothes are suddenly very dry, and none of the aches and pains he'd been feeling after his mother's freak-out are there.

His tail twitches apprehensively, ears swiveling at every sounds as he calls out: ] Hello...?

[ video ]

[ okay, so he's in space.

because why the hell not, at this point in his weird life?

but that means there's questions to be asked. how it's possible, where they're going, what the heck does a communications officer do-- ]

How are you supposed to tell adults from kids if they don't have their ears?

[ ...or that.

it must be the cat ears atop his head he's talking about, because he does have a visible set of totally normal, human ears.

clearly y'all are the weird ones here. ]

[That's... one hell of a question. It takes Khadgar a moment to even try to think of a way to answer.]

For humans on Azeroth, is mostly just how mature you look. Older teens to adults grow facial hair, their features aren't as rounded. [He has to think.] Taller, of course, and changes in voice but that starts at puberty.

There's also the matter of age. I'm eighteen so I'm an adult by most standards.
