Subject: It does help if the characters' ages are a bit vague, heh.

Gall is quite a bit younger than Derik, but since both of them are badfic characters living in HQ, their ages are "20-something" and "idk, 37? 42?" respectively.

IF I wanted to pin it down and IF they'd aged at a normal rate since their respective recruitments, that would make them about 31 and 48 wait what *cough, wheeze* I'm sorry. I got about ten years stuck in my throat. Dammit I'm old.

ANYWAY, SO, turns out they'd be roughly 17 years apart by rational reckoning, which is a lot. But I think this is mitigated by other factors, such as how Gall is the one pursuing Derik, she's undoubtedly considered a mature adult in her own culture (Berkian Viking), and Derik is still considered in his prime in his (Pernese). They are, in fact, both in the same life stage.

Plus, they're badfic characters living in HQ, so I don't give a toss what rational reckoning says. {= )

ETA: minus a plus.
