[ he knows it's a rhetorical question, but he shrugs. ]
My sister's twenty-four, so I can't say my comparison's that useful. But that probably makes more sense if you've been doing this sort of thing your entire life.
[ ...ah. ] Is that why you asked what my mental age was, too? I wasn't entirely sure how Relivers functioned once cloned. I don't know if that would make it easier or harder. [ being alive and reliving repeatedly but still being the "same." ]
Unfortunately I get the feeling we're about to have a lot of free time. So it's worth a thought if you really have nothing else to experiment with.
In general, plenty of people have a mental age that doesn't reflect their physical age. It also has to do with the society that they're in—how their age relates to their social position to other long-lived individuals. The so-called wizards and the fish man are evident enough of that.
But you're not wrong. I don't have all of my research materials, but I remember enough to be able to work out some ideas. Supposedly there will eventually be a library to access as well.
[ there's a quizzical look like "what wizards" because somehow he just hasn't talked to bradley or nero at all yet. though sidon he at least knows, so he can understand that much. sure. some people just age slowly in general because of their species. it's not always a genetic fuckup. ]
...this is obviously the first time I've ever left my world, so seeing instances outside of what I know has been different. [ but the point's been made and he's moving on. ]
Did the crew tell you that? [ he does not have strong hope the library will contain a lot of useful things, but it's a thought. ]
It is mine as well. [though you wouldn't guess based on how scien's taken everything so in stride]
They did. They said they perform their own research with the books supplied by the company, so there is that. At the very least, it should allow for idea generation for you.
[ he sort of guessed based on the circumstances of the island, but he also does sort of raise an eyebrow because yeah. the man's been pretty steady about this whole thing this whole time.
the promise of a library does seem to intrigue him though. ]
It's a start, as long as the materials provided are on subjects I can work with. Usually I'd just use the internet and work from there, but that'll have to do. Any idea when "eventually" might even be?
