Kotake: “Hey, Koume, what is that above your head?” 
Koume: “I don’t know, but you have one over your head too, Kotake!” 
Kotake: “But I’m only 400 years old!” 
Koume: “And I’m just 380 years old!” 
Kotake: “We’re twins! Don’t try to lie about your age!” 
Koume: “You must have gone senile!”

~ Resident of Rauru, Adventure of Link

Err…Okay, then. I’m done here.
