He does get quite big- but is still very small for a dragon :P and thank you, I think Scizwig is definatly a battle mage and can channle alot of not only his but Ovi's raw power in to combat. <3 The pickles is my fave too xD I may make it into a bigger thing at some point. And with the apology... I am inclined to agree with you- it does sound a little odd. And when I wrote it I really did consider if i wanted to change it slightly to 'you have a good heart kid.' only a slight change... which may seem odd still but Ovi is based off of me and his apology to me is to say sorry for taking my old life from me. I know he did it knowingly because he cast the spell and knew of its implications. But if I had a kid in front of me of whom I've only just met but has cause me grate distress, but is also gravely sorry for doing so. I would likely crumple up and say something stupid... xD; and then for the rest of my life ask myself why the fuck i said it and not 100 other things that would have been better.

So what exactly happened between these two characters? I'm guessing the mage turned the other into a dragon and can't turn him back?

Nevermind, I'm a derp. Somehow missed the "Familiar in training" pic that came before this one.

Nice concepts you drew there, shows some interesting steps in their life / relationship.
