Ok I was gonna make a long post about Mav's age in comparison to his compatriots and how he seems at some times the same age and sometimes younger but really it just boils down to this
Tom Cruise had a baby face until he was, like, 45. This is not normal
The writing for Charlie and the dynamic between her and Mav tends to make Mav seem younger. She respects his flying, but she thinks his antics are juvenile. (I personally disagree but whatever, that's not relevant). We don't really see her interact as much with the other guys, just Mav, so we don't know how she treats them. She could be also painting them as juvenile kids, but we don't get that perspective.
The previous point is exacerbated by the RL age difference between Tom Cruise and Kelly McGillis. She's five years older than him, so at the time of filming TC was 23/24 and KM was 28/29. Add TC's baby face and voila, he looks nineteen.

There is no mercy for you. Only me.
@velidewrites dropped this in my askbox unprompted as a little treat to combat the horrors of life. Who can resist vansnake? Not me- and maybe not you, either.
You can find him in So It's Going To Be Forever, being a general menace (and monster).

God Eclipse
I went feral and designed something for the alternate dimension’s Eclipse in The Sun and Moon Show. It seems SAMS brainrot always stomps out my art block. I like to draw the show’s canon designs for their characters, but this God Eclipse may be an exception. Alternate version below:

Propaganda to convince everyone to read Yotsuba&!
Yotsuba&! (also called Yotsubato or Yotsuba and) is a very cute slice of life manga about Yotsuba, a five year old girl, and all the little adventures she goes on. It's still ongoing, but doesn't get new chapters very often. That doesn't stop me from checking MangaDex every few days.
There are seven characters who appear in most chapters, three who are in some, and several other side characters who show up every once in a while. They have pretty simple designs, but all feel so unique in terms of appearance and personality. They're all introduced super well in my opinion! You'll know their whole deal by the end of the first chapter they're in.
A lot of chapters are actually part of the same storyline, even if they aren't titled Part 1 & Part 2. One of my favorites is the four chapter story starting with Ch. 94, "Yotsuba & The Day Before" (it's so hard to only pick one favorite!!)
It's filled with a ton of cute and silly moments, but also a decent amount of heartwarming and emotional moments. Ch. 104, "Yotsuba & Backpacks" is the perfect example of both.
Anyways, here are some random pages and panels that I really like! (All from MangaDex)
(Chapter sources: Ch. 12 "Yotsuba & the Pool," Ch. 31 "Yotsuba & the Stars," Ch. 48 "Yotsuba & the Ranch," Ch. 71 "Yotsuba & Pizza," Ch. 79 "Yotsuba & V")

(@ask-a-staravia) "My clan has legends about eggs that resemble the one you have," Akihiko tells Chime. "They're supposedly very rare, descendants of a Diety who has the ability to befriend anyone. What makes you think you can take care of it- or why you should?"
Chime is startled by the new visitor, not sure where he came from, nor why his appearance looked so vastly different from other Pokémon.
He pulls out his notepad and starts to write his explanation.
"It may seem like I might be doing this out of pride or vanity, but my reasons are valid nonetheless.
While the Guardian Guild, who is the main law enforcement and protector of citizens of the towns of this region, is strong and willing to protect those seeking help...
There have been multiple occasions where stolen eggs like this were placed in their care... and were carelessly broken, killing the infant inside.
The guardian guild focuses on strength and speed for getting tasks done. Not careful thought and caution. While strength is important to protect the eggs, a lack of care can result in horrid occurrences like those.
I do have experience with eggs, as I often assisted with them back in my home town before I–"
Chime's expression falls, but he shakes his head and continues writing.
"I know if I can get the egg to Oceania and find for certain where it's from, I can get it home safely to its family."
It seems Chime might have bad memories of his old home. Perhaps it's something someone can ask about?
Featuring Akihiko from @ask-a-staravia ! (Thank you for the ask!)
