Riot Force Reports: The Ties That Bind
 
#17
To expand a little on what Ops (accurately) said:

Sammy is pretty confident she's between 17 and 21, based on the 'typical' age of onset of puberty for a human girl. But there are a few confusing
factors, not the least of which is the fact that she's not human, at least not entirely. She's a mutant. She
also has only vague memories at best of her parents, and like Alice, her last name is fictional. At one point she needed a last name, so she picked
'Davis' for no particular reason other than it was easy to remember.

Regardless of actual age, she plans on celebrating her 21st 'officially' this year.

As for why she seems younger (to everyone!), well, Ops nailed it. Up until meeting up with Alice, she lived the feral life, and pretty much completely
subsumed her human personality into the feline one. Cats don't bother with what happened before or what happens tomorrow, they focus on the now, and
survival. If she had food in her stomach (from whatever source) and a dry place to sleep, she was content. So there wasn't much going on for mental
development -- instinct was all she needed, and it kept her alive.

All in all, it puts them in the unique position of being each other's big sisters. Alice is more mentally mature,
less so physically; Sammy is the opposite.

So, yeah. Sammy will quite honestly call Alice her "big sister", and Alice does the same to her, and neither of them is lying. Smile
