How many other kids are here, nanoka? I wanna know, nanoda! Sound off if you're a kid, nanoda!

[She progressively gets her face closer to the camera as she talks excitedly. She seems to realize that she's getting too close because she does back off to a normal distance after a moment.]

I have questions, nanoda!

Where do you all hang out, nanoka?

Can we meet sometime, nanoka? I want to spend time with other kids, nanoda!

Also, also! What jobs do you do, nanoka? Trying to find a job at a maid cafe hasn't been working because of my age, nanoda. I'll probably go back to my street performances, but I'm curious about everyone else, nanoda.

[She knows that she gets a stipend, but she's still a bit worried. She also refuses to ask about school in this world.]

[ A dark-colored macaque looks discerningly through the feed. ]

Are you really a monkey?

[mewpudding]

[Bu-Ling hesitates for just a moment before remembering that everyone here has powers.]

Sort of, nanoda! My...my DNA? has been fused with a golden lion tamarin, nanoda!

[This has been explained to her enough times that she can recite it, but she doesn't fully get it.]

I sometimes have monkey ears and tail, nanoda! Not right now though, nanoda. Are you a monkey all the time, nanoka?

[castaside]

[ He knows about DNA thanks to all his reading. ]

So you're a human who is a monkey sometimes. [ That's disappointing. ]

I'm a monkey all the time, yes. Unless I'm shape-shifting, but then I'm a monkey who happens to look different at that moment.

[mewpudding]

[Bu-Ling nods excitedly, unaware of his disappointment.]

That's right, nanoda! It must be cool to be a monkey all the time, nanoda! I wonder if I can be a monkey all the time, nanoda.

You can shapeshift, nanoka!? Wait, is it from the Seasonal powers, nanoka? Can I shape-shift, nanoka?

[castaside]

[ He grins. ] I recommend it. The tail is useful in everyday life, and so is the agility. I don't know how humans manage without them.

Yes, I can do a lot of things. I've been alive for many centuries. My specialty is shadows. [ And glamours but that's a tricky subject. ]

I think kids mostly go to school, and they get money from the government so they don't have to work. You can still quest, though! Some kids are pretty strong, but I think most basically just do the easy ones in the city, like Mary-chan.

[mewpudding]

I just worry it won't be enough, nanoda.

[She perks up at the mention of quests though.]

Quests, nanoda! Like an adventure, nanoda! I'm super strong, so I'll go on a bunch of quests, nanoda!

Do you think I can go on quests instead of going to school, nanoka?

[roundandaround]

Eh? You don't wanna go to school at all? I mean, I sucked at school, but at least it was fun sometimes! Like health and sports day! And performances! And tournaments!

If ya really wanna work at a cafe, why not take a look at Moondrop?
The folks there're really nice, 'n it sells flowers, too.

And I wanna open up a shop that sells art sometime soon... do you do art?

[He's clearly not a kid, of course, but look... Chipp worries so much about the Otherworlder kids running around, okay.
If this kid's gonna insist on getting a job, he wants to give options for safe jobs, if he can.

(... His "art shop" is also going to be part car garage/junkyard, of course, but it's probably fine.)]

Does sixteen count? I guess it does? But um. I'm not as sure about where people hang out or whatever. Kacchan mentioned an arcade, I think? I only recently got here, so I'm still figuring out options, with work or school or whatever, yet.

[.....wait.]

...Ah, street performances? Like um, busking? People who sing or play instruments or juggle or that sort of thing?
