[Hope mentioning that reminds her of a couple of things she'd wondered about the gods but never bothered asking about.]

Are the forms you chose for interacting with us intended to be an indication of your ages?

[Given that they were able to delve into memories and Hope's grasp of anatomy, it's not out of the realm of possibility to think that their forms were chosen deliberately based on their hosts' perceptions of age.]

Also...pardon me if this is a rude question, but how does your kind reproduce? I imagine it's a rather different process than the human way.

[That's about the best way she can be direct and still somewhat polite about asking Hope where baby glowclouds come from.]

Not exactly. We chose forms that were around the same size and appearance as the majority of you.

[He didn't really know the difference between children and adults until a few months in. They were just smaller humans and larger humans.]

We reproduce by taking part of ourselves and making another being out of it.
