::Static buzzes and the statement "I saw the angel in the marble and will carve it until I set her free." is heard.::

Welcome to the inaugural episode of the podcast, "The Thirteenth Hour"! I'm your host, Abraxia Marjorie Desiree Paradisia Rosencrantz! And with me are my co-hosts, the witches, "Aeon the Blinding Eternity" and "Ultima the Farthest Shore"!

This week's subject is Age. What is it. Is it the same as Maturity. And what are these things in the Age of Youwa.

And to start us off, Aeon. What is Age, in your opinon.

Comments

[lunaseafuture]

The number of years lived, it is not the same thing as maturity.

[redderthanred]

I see, and Ultima?

[itkananbe]

I would agree with Aeon, but I would note, in my opinion, humans never exit childhood. They're a neotany species.

[lunaseafuture]

Compared to the 12 Dimensions? Definitely.

[redderthanred]

And why are the two not connected. Maturity and Age?

[itkananbe]

Bluntly? Age manipulating magic can reverse or accelerate one's physical appearance and as magic becomes more prominent, Abraxia. We're going to need a new system of scoring who is and isn't an adult.

[redderthanred]

I mean, it's not like their minds are playthings of their bodies.

[lunaseafuture]

They absolutely are. We're going to be dealing with captains of industries with the bodies of hormonal teenagers, and a population of the elderly who are never going away with their opinions, unless something is done.

[redderthanred]

Oh we'll do something about it.

Probably.

::Laugh Track.::

And now for this episode's special guest!

[morethaneverauburn]

I dunno why you invited me on, but like.

Why am I here again?

[redderthanred]

What are your thoughts on age and maturity, Hiroko?

[morethaneverauburn]

Ugh! Gag me with a spoon, I never wanna grow up.

[itkananbe]

And do you think the two are related?

[morethaneverauburn]

Nah!

I've known plenty of girls here who are totes more mature than actual adults.

Maturity's like. A vibe.

[lunaseafuture]

So with magic increasingly flowing into the world, would you say adulthood is a meritocracy? Or it at least should be?

[morethaneverauburn]

Uh, I guess! But I'm definitely not cut out for it, girls.

[morethaneverauburn]

Though, the weirdest thing, and I know this isn't really related to why you brought me on and stuff...

I got the letter of challenge pointing me to the lake?

Something about a Duel in a castle?

[lunaseafuture]

... Would you mind if I came with you or took the challenge for you?

[morethaneverauburn]

Uh. Please.

I'm not good at Dueling. At like. All.

[redderthanred]

Huh! Weird!

Next up, after these commercials we'll be discussing how to fake being an adult until you make it! With our special guest, Hiroko, explaining how to maximize your maturity with make-up as well as plush and push up bras!
