I love their dynamic and all, but are we forgetting that Lapis and Diana is probably 15-16 years old and Natori is 25?

So what. It's a story in a fantasy setting in a medieval style kingdom. Keep in mind that just like 75 - 100 years ago (and even nowadays in some 3rd world countries), nobody batted an eye over age gaps like this. Around 1885, classical music composer, virtuoso pianist, and child prodigy Amy Beech was married off to a prominent doctor like 25 years older than she was , and this was in Boston, MA. She was like 17 or so, then. The upper class of socity has more or less always been like this. Also, they're 15/16, not 5 or 6. Please stop thinking with your "modern sensibilities" over age and things like that in fantasy stories.....


p.s. BTW, just a fun fact: Amy Beech said she was actually quite happy during the time of her life she was married, so please don't think she suffered and was horribly miserable.
