The primary source of consternation plucked from that Q&A was the “revelation” that Gamzee is short.

Which was obviously a 4 THE LAFFS answer.

The real answer is

drumroll

I don’t give a shit about how tall anybody is.

How tall do you want them to be?

That’s the right answer!

This is generally true of physical traits. The basic element of abstraction in HS disallows clear cut answers on a number of things.

They can vary in height if your imagination demands it. And they can vary in weight. Want them to be a bunch of chubby kids? You got it!

They could be any race too. Note that I am caucasian, and I draw myself orange. I don’t see no orange kids there! Can’t really pin them down as definitively white, though this is likely the widespread presumption. They are canonically a-racial, and elude concrete bodily proportions through diversity of stylistic representation. You decide what they are! The thing you decide is right.
