HMMMMMMMMMM I always go back and forth on how I want to interpret the Climber's age djkshfskjdhj. On one hand, he's mostly likely MEANT to be like, magically a similar age maybe a year or two younger than Clarice (I hope). But on the other hand, while he does read as autistic, his lack of knowledge on how things work that we see in Endzone doesn't strike me as JUST him being autistic. He lacks knowledge because he hasn't been around for very long in addition to not picking up on things others might. Not a baby, but certainly young. Humans have a whole 16-18 years where they're meant to be just learning things and he didn't. Buuuuuuut the relationship with Clarice would have to be a bit different, more one-sided on Climber's part. It might also give more weight to Karl's... concerns? "Hey she might be taking advantage of you" (he completely jumps the gun on this and chooses violence, despite her not actually being interested in anything more than friends).
