What's worse is that it isn't limited to non-humans. Lysithea from 3 Houses is 20 after the timeskip but still looks young and acts like a child even though she is extremely insistent on telling people not to treat her like one. Clearly she hasn't heard of the phrase "the lady doth protest too much" because otherwise she would have long silenced anyone who thinks she's childish by simply acting her age. It's even stranger when you remember that she isn't even the only female who is 20 after the timeskip. Petra is surprisingly just as young and no one doubts her level of maturity.OH GOD I FORGOT ABOUT THAT TROPE. i swear it'd be a way better trope if it was used more often as a gag character archetype where the thing was she still acted like an old lady despite looking young, but NYOPE they just use it for fanservice and it's gross.(and yeah i am 90% sure fire emblem codified that trope, it's a shame since myrrh is one of my fav characters from that series (though she's arguably one of the most... nyormal? examples of the trope in the series) and i have to Contend with the fact she's part of the same character archetype that brought us nowi)
