I actually did the math back in the days of the old forum: -If Kayto and Ava only meet again 12 Ceran years after their highschool days and Cerans finish highschool when they are 18 Ceran years old, they are 46 and 47, respectively. -If they only meet again after 12 Ceran years after their highschool days and Cerans finish highschool when they are 18 Solarian (Terran) years old, they are 36 and 37, respectively. -If they only meet again after 12 Solarian years after their highschool days and Cerans finish highschool when they are 18 Ceran years old, they are 39 and 41, respectively. -If they only meet again after 12 Solarian years after their highschool days and Cerans finish highschool when they are 18 Solarian years old, they are 29 and 31, respectively. That is, however, assuming that Ceran seconds last as long as Terran seconds, which is not true according to Samu-kun, making the entire exercise pointless. However, if both indeed last for the same ammount of time, then Kayto noting that 8 years have passed between the last time he saw Ava on Cera and meeting her aboard the Sunrider and the narrator saying that 12 years have passed would be both true, for 8 Ceran years are roughly 12 Terran years (12,68391679350583 years, to be exact). EDIT: Oh, and the information on the Ceran calendar and measures of time is taken from Sunrider Academy. I usually go by Academy time since it was generally the most consistent for Cera and or Cera City. 10 hours = 1 day 10 days = 1 week 5 weeks = 1 month 10 months = 1 year. This then means that their days are 2.4 times shorter than ours, making their weeks 100 hours while hours are 168 hours, their months are 500 hours while our months are 744 hours if we use the 31st as our general month length. Their years are 5,000 hours while our years are 8,760. Academy showed their schools operate similar to the American school system. In which that would then mean it would take twelve years to graduate primary school. Which takes them 60,000 hours. This then leaves the room of six years before someone attends a primary school. which would be 30,000 hours. Making them 90,000 hours of age in their time. Assuming Ava and Kayto go by their native time scale, they would use Cerean Time. Which means 12 years would be another 60,000 hours. Making them 150,000 hours of age. Making them respectively 30 and 31 Cerean years old. IIRC, each minute in Cera has 100 seconds and each hour has 100 minutes, making Ceran years, after considering the numbers you already mentioned, last for 50.000.000 seconds; roughly one and a half Terran years.

While we're on the subject of Cosette, how old is she actually? Unknown, same for pretty much every other cast member. I was hoping when the LD artbook came out this would be clarified in it but sadly it was not. I actually did the math back in the days of the old forum: -If Kayto and Ava only meet again 12 Ceran years after their highschool days and Cerans finish highschool when they are 18 Ceran years old, they are 46 and 47, respectively. -If they only meet again after 12 Ceran years after their highschool days and Cerans finish highschool when they are 18 Solarian (Terran) years old, they are 36 and 37, respectively. -If they only meet again after 12 Solarian years after their highschool days and Cerans finish highschool when they are 18 Ceran years old, they are 39 and 41, respectively. -If they only meet again after 12 Solarian years after their highschool days and Cerans finish highschool when they are 18 Solarian years old, they are 29 and 31, respectively.

Guys, please don't forget that, in the game's universe, warp does not (should not, at least) work when the ship is under strong influence from a planet's gravity well. That's probably the reason the Sunrider's warp drive breaks down after the short range jump to Machiavelli Actual, and I would assume that it wouldn't be able to make a long range warp at all, or that, should that be attempted, it would be an incredibly innaccurate jump just like the short range jump that would break the warp drive and probably leave the Sunrider stuck in the middle of deep space; an effective death sentence. That means two things:
1-There's no way out for the Sunrider 2-The Alliance can't fire the Paradox Warhead right away without sinking the Combined Fleet alongside the PACT Fleet
So yeah, Kayto has three choices in the end: going out on a blaze of glory, attempting a long range jump that's basically a death sentence or trying to push through the PACT and Alliance fleets and then jumping away. And seeing as the Sunrider didn't manage to survive it's approach to Machiavelli Actual after the short range warp, option 3 is suicidal.
