Haru.

Am I a beefcake?

( He begins to flex, but he ends up sighing. )

The beef part is relevant.

I could be a metaphor. I am "an old man trapped in a boy's body".

[sleepygunsman]

That's an interesting one...How old are you?

[mooimacow]

How old do you think I am?

[sleepygunsman]

You're not going to hit me for telling you what I think right?

[Because Lace has fallen for these traps before. ]

[mooimacow]

That would be stupid.

[sleepygunsman]

You'd be surprised how many idiots there are.

[Lace sighed softly before examining the other closely.]

I'd say you're sixteen...maybe seventeen.

[mooimacow]

Right on the dot. ( He gives Lace a thumbs up. )

[sleepygunsman]

[Lace perked up a bit when he received a thumbs up. Haru would be surprised how little praise he got for giving correct answers.]

How old do I look?

[He normally would never ask since his age was meaningless to most but that didn't mean he was never curious about it. ]

[mooimacow]

( He observes Lace closely before answering: )

Younger than me. Older than a baby turtle.

[sleepygunsman]

......

[He gives Haru a thumbs up.]

Depends though...How old is the baby turtle?

[mooimacow]

( For some reason, this too requires thought. )

The big turtles can live to be over one hundred, so they'd still be babies when they were...10?

[sleepygunsman]

Then yes I am older than a baby turtle.

[mooimacow]

Thirteen? Fourteen?
