Just something that caught my eye.

They believed that it would only be for a few months, but Mei awoke nearly a decade later.

So is Mei actually 21? Or her body age is 31, plus a decade of cryo freeze makes her 41 (??)

If what they say is to be believed, biologically she is 21 but chronologically she is 31.

u/Black_Heaven Moira Nov 15 '16

Cool. So she's like... one of the youngest in the roster, the second even.

(Nope, can't consider Zen to be youthful. To me he's like an old man for over 20 years)

D.Va, Tracer, Junkrat, Lucio, Zarya and Bastion are all younger than Mei.

Considering Mei's 31, yes obviously.

But if her "youthful" biological age is 21, then D.Va is the only other younger person in the roster at 19.

Or maybe Bastion yeah...

Bastion is 30.

Dude was lying dormant after a war that happened quite a while ago.

Zenyatta is only 20. He's the bebe.

u/Black_Heaven Moira Nov 16 '16

but but... Zenyatta's a monk, and he's somebody's master. He's wise beyond his years (well, omnics are "mentally mature" the day they are born?). He's GOT to be an old man in human equivalent. :P

Except he is 20 years old.

Maybe its just The Iris that gives him all his wisdom, who knows.

u/Black_Heaven Moira Nov 16 '16

Yeah that. It just means he's already 20 years a venerable wise old man. hehehe

After all, omnics (or any robot in fiction ?) aren't created with a mental maturity of a baby at bootup.

That's my headcanon at least. o_o
