i'm ruled by rule of funny

[Leslie bites her lip. She doesn't like to think of the definition she's used to as the normal definition of monster when she's in a world where monsters are just normal people, and many of the Mirrorbound monsters are her friends. But it's also the normal definition to her and it's the definition that people have used to describe "the Monster Duchess" and her family.]

They're just strong, is all.

[And big, apparently, since a four year old from that family is about the size of Leslie.

As for the reaction to the overestimation of age, Leslie ducks her head in embarrassment.]


I'm sorry. I don't know a lot of people who are twenty. Or...I don't think I do....

[She knows she didn't know a lot of 20-year-olds to base her guess on back in her world. Here, she doesn't actually know the ages of a lot of the Mirrorbound.]
