[ gently puts the "last baby standing" crown on anise. ]
Same age as Mizuki. [ hence...why mizuki was in that memory, he does not say. ] But yeah. The director didn't completely stop the aging process in me, but it's slowed down almost entirely. So...this is it for the rest of my long, long life.
...until recently, I didn't think there was ever an option to fix it. I hated that. I hated that I was going to be like this forever and all of the things that meant. But since coming here and talking to a few people, it feels like maybe I have options I can try to take.
I don't know. Maybe hate is a strong word, but I wish it wasn't like this when I didn't ask for it in the first place.
Not many. [ he'll admit that. ] The director who did this back home was killed six years ago, so any attempts at finding out how this was done are gone. But after talking to people like Scien and Dahut, I figure I could start looking into gene editing myself. See if there's something I can discover or a path I can take to try and...even if I don't undo it all, at least consider rewriting it again.
[ he sounds hesitant about it because that's still. intense. but he's trying. ]
Being here meant meeting people from other worlds who could point me in a different direction. So I guess I'd call that a plus. [ ... ] Until then, not a lot of people on the ship really know the truth either.

I think if it were me, I'd feel pretty conflicted about the whole thing...
What kind of options do you have now?

I know you're probably not planning on being reckless about this, but... be careful, all the same. Okay?

[ all of that being said... ]
Enough about that though. It doesn't change what I said about you and being glad other people saw your skills and not your age.
