This is my head canon, that older Lalafell smell different. Â Not in like a corpse-y way but just different, like cedar maybe. Â It might be so subtle that only Miqo'te can smell the difference but maybe anyone can if they knew there was a difference.
Personally, I don't mind that Miqo'te don't discernibly age. Â Not that the Miqo'te are "cat people" more so than "people who just happen to look a bit like cats" but looking at pictures of my cats from 10 years ago, the only difference I can see is that they are all fatter.
(In my own head, I do tend to RP Miqo'te as significantly more tethered to actual cat behaviors. Â It's just more fun for me that way. )
I think it would be fun if the Miqo'te got fatter as they aged.
