Spike whistled while he finished collecting the last batch for the day. Nothing was more satisfying than getting a chance to look at a hard day’s worth of work. It surprised the purple dragon with how much admiration he had for labor. If anything, he was originally skeptical with how working at the farm was going to benefit him. Yes, more money was quite nice to have when you were typically living on an allowance budget like Spike was. Especially when allowances from Twilight Sparkle never exactly met his financial goals. Mostly because he wanted to invest said money in whatever matter he wanted, without turning to Twilight. That and buying gems was expensive.
I could use a break, Spike decided.
The purple dragon moved around the wagon and looked over the pile of apples he gathered today. “…” He finally spotted his water bottle and reached for it with the desire to quench his thirst. He didn’t realize that being dehydrated was a thing for dragons, until he started working for the Apple family. In fact, he wondered just what the exact limitations of being a dragon in his age were, as even his high sex-drive vanished within the first three months. Now, his enjoyment of the sun’s rays was causing more than just sweat from his body. Even flapping his wings to cool himself wasn’t doing justice for him, as Celestia’s influence with daytime was apparently having an effect with him. Was this her doing, or was it because he never spent this long out in the sun? Summer time was never this much of an issue for him, so why was this happening to him?
“Wish Celestia would take it easy, you know?” shouted Spike.
“Eyupp!” shouted Big Macintosh. He was sitting against a tree while drinking out of his own water bottle. Shoot, I should’ve brought more, he realized, looking at his two empty ones that rested by his feet. He licked his lips and continued to drink out of his third.
Spike wiped his forehead with his arm as he walked over to where Big Mac rested. “So how are things with Cheerilee? You went on that date with her, right?” he asked, before taking a sip out of his bottle.
Big Mac nodded as he took a big gulp of water. Sighing in relief, he answered, “Yeah, it was quite nice and all spendin’ more time with Cheerilee. But I do wish that I could see her more often. In fact,” Big Mac started to stand up and continued with, “I don’t think that she likes how often I have to work…”
Spike sighed as he finished with taking a big sip. He licked his lips and swallowed, feeling his throat completely rejuvenated before stating, “At least you’re doing better than me…”
“Somethin’ going on between you and Rarity?” asked Big Mac.
“Yeah, I don’t want to talk about it,” Spike said honestly. He took another sip and offered his bottle to Big Mac, noticing that his was empty. As he took it with gratitude, Spike then said, “Maybe I just need- BURP!”
Big Macintosh paused as Spike suddenly released green fire without warning, indicating a message via magic. “Twilight?” he asked.
“No- I think it’s from Celestia,” Spike said, catching the letter and recognizing Celestia’s personal stamp. “But I’ll read it once we get back…”
After another minute of rest, both Spike and Big Mac got back to work, intending to get back to the house within the next hour or so. There was no disappointment for the hard workers, as the fruits of their labor was perhaps their best hull in recent memory. Applejack and her little sister agreed as Spike and Big Mac presented what they had gathered in front of the barn. After a few minutes of storing and estimating, they all went inside to rest and look back on the day itself.
“Well you two did a mighty fine job today!” Granny Smith said happily. “I haven’t seen so many apples in one spot since last family reunion!” she added.
“Granny, maybe we can start sellin' some of your famous pies at ma school?” Apple Bloom suggested happily. “Be really nice to make a few extra bits that we could spend on ourselves!”
Granny only laughed as she brought the matter of subject to the table, gently cutting a few pieces as Spike followed with plates and spoons. As she placed one slice onto a plate, she gently pushed it towards Apple Bloom and said, “Gee, well I don’t know about that. See, ol’ Granny Smith here prefers makin’ her pies as fresh as possible! And I am afraid I can’t just get up and early to make a bunch of pies for yer class dearly! I wouldn’t mind if they came here however; wouldn’t be too hard when I have more time to make so many pies at once!”
Apple bloom considered what Granny Smith said, pondering with her thoughts. “…I guess that makes sense…”
“Hey, you could always sell pie to the fellas that we play soccer with,” Spike suggested. “They’re always talking about grabbing something to chow on after each game, and I am pretty sure that they’ll love to buy some conveniently close food.”
Apple bloom actually liked that idea as she nodded repeatedly. “Yeah! There’s an idea! They could take them to go to enjoy later if they wanted!” she pointed out with excitement.
“Well I suppose so…maybe like a weekend bake sale or somethin’?” Big Macintosh suggested. More money into this family would do them some good and also influence more players to visit their farm on a regular basis. “Granny, think that you can whip up somethin’ before they get here later today?” asked Big Mac.
“What do you think I am, one of those fancy machines?!” Granny Smith asked, obviously offended with Big Mac’s question. “Makin' a pie takes time, and I don’t have enough ingredients to do more than two at the moment,” she added.
“Well then I’ll have to go into town to go buy more groceries then,” Applejack remarked, washing down her food with milk. As she licked her lips, she then said, “I’ll head into town in a little bit since I want to see if Rainbow Dash wanted to do anything today.”
“I’ll walk with you,” offered Spike.
*Ten minutes later*
“You sure that you don’t want to stay and play with your friends, Spike?” Applejack asked.
Spike shook his head. “I am kinda tried to be honest; I barely got any sleep last night,” he explained. These last few nights have been a disappointment as a matter of fact…
“Well then you’re gonna need to tell them that,” commented Applejack.
“Hmm?” Spike looked ahead to see that the familiar faces of his soccer friends. It took another minute before they came across one another.
“Spike, you’re not going to stay?”
“Sorry, really tired!”
“That bad huh?”
“Yeah, insomnia is a bitch!”
A few laughs were shared as they all nodded and waved at him while walking by. He waved at them and continued to walk for a few seconds before asking, “Why didn’t you say hello AJ?”
Applejack blinked as she looked at him and said, “I did; I waved at them!”
“But I at least expected you to say something. I mean, Ramos did walk by and-”
“What’s your point?” Applejack asked, doing her best to hide a blush.
“Well I assumed that you two were close and-”
“Spike,” Applejack said, ceasing movement and looked directly at him. “Just what is it that makes you think that Ramos and I are ‘close’??” she asked, not liking where he was going with this.
“Well…” Spike scratched his cheek as he avoided eye contact with Applejack. “…Apple Bloom told me that she saw the two of you walking into your bathroom together…naked.”
“EH?!” Applejack’s face turned completely red. It hasn't even been three days and already Apple Bloom told Spike? Gosh darn it! she thought angrily. She didn’t want any gossip about what went on that day! Especially when it was purely spontaneous and didn't really mean anything! Although she did like the fact that she got to know Ramos a little better. “Wait, did she tell anypony else?” she quickly asked, fearing the worst.
“Well, she told me that she only felt comfortable speaking to me since I wasn’t ‘blood’ related, yet still a trustful friend,” Spike explained. Wow, she really doesn’t want anyone knowing about that. “And she told me that she wasn’t sure if she should ask you about it. I at least told her to make sure that she asked you about it before telling anyone else,” Spike explained.
While there was some relief to what Applejack was hearing, the thought of her little sister knowing was stressful enough. Especially when Apple Bloom was still young and innocent, not understanding these types of things. “B-But it doesn’t make me happy knowin’ that ma sis saw me and him naked together! Gosh, she must be confused about all of this…”
Spike frowned as they began to walk again. “Hey, I mean is it a bad thing if you told her about the birds and the bees? I mean, she already has her cutie mark so-”
“She’s still young!” shouted Applejack angrily. “Would you listen to yerself?!” she added, completely offended by what Spike was implying.
“H-Hey, I am just saying that she’s matured to a point, OKAY? She could be going through some difficulties with herself and not realize it! I mean, it makes sense that you should do it, right? Explain to her about how life goes once you reach a certain age?” Spike asked. He didn’t want to offend Applejack or anything like that, but he did want to make his point with her.
Applejack began to cool down after hearing Spike’s explanation. “…” She closed her eyes and sighed before saying, “Yer right…I shouldn’t ignore the fact that little ol’ Apple Bloom is growing up…”
Spike smiled as he then said, “Yeah, and besides, it wouldn’t be a bad thing if you were with Ramos on a serious relationship; Apple Bloom likes him a lot.”
Applejack looked at Spike with confusion. “What do you mean?”
“Well Apple Bloom said that she likes his ‘pretty hair’ and his ‘pretty language’. She also likes the fact that it makes it easier for her to talk to other Zebras besides him and Zecora.”
“What? What do you mean ‘easier’???”
“Well Apple Bloom apparently is shy around her new Zebra classmates; she can’t explain it, but she’s worried that they’re not going to like her,” Spike explained. “I guess she’s somewhat intimidated by non-ponies disliking her or something,” he added.
“What- Apple Bloom gets along quite well with Zecora! How-”
“I guess because these Zebras are around her age?” Spike asked. At least, that’s what he wanted to believe since Zecora was an adult and it was only last year that a steady flow of non-ponies began to move to Ponyville. Zebras were no different, as their children began to attend the same school as Apple Bloom just two months ago when the new semester started.
Applejack was not happy hearing that at all. Hell she didn’t even know about this until Spike told her. Spike and not her sister! “I can’t take it anymore!” Applejack said suddenly. She stopped and looked at Spike before saying, “Sorry Spike, but I need to be with ma sister now,”
Spike gave a soft smile as he nodded and said, “Don’t be; go to her now.”
Applejack smiled and began to run back to her farm, with the intent to have a sister to sister talk with Apple Bloom.
Spike watched as Applejack went to bond with Apple Bloom, now realizing that he no longer needed to walk. After all, he wasn’t flying because he did not want Applejack to be walking by herself. Thus, he easily lifted himself up and began to fly towards Ponyville within minutes. After he reached said destination, Spike landed in front of Sugar Cube corner and smiled as he walked inside.
“Afternoon Spike!”
“Afternoon Mrs. Cake!”
Spike walked over to the counter with a friendly wave. “Can I have a sapphire milkshake please?” he requested.
“Again Spike? Oh my, you’re going to get fat at this rate!” Mrs. Cake giggled, accepting his money and tending to the cashier.
“Well lucky for me, we dragons have high metabolisms,” Spike explained with a laugh. After the friendly exchange, he walked over to an empty table and sat with a gentle sigh. “Now for that letter…” He reached into his pocket and found what he was looking for. After carefully opening it, he began to read the following contents:
Dear Spike,
I hope that all is well within Ponyville, as I’ve been busy as of late with various tasks requiring my attention. However, thanks to a small opening in my schedule, I am happy to say that I can now officially invite you to visit me in Canterlot without a moment’s delay.
I intend to assist you with the changes that occurred within you on your birthday, as dragon puberty is far more volatile than you may think. As such, your transformation may yet to have ceased completely, as previous records have shown that delays occur inconsistently during a dragon’s natural grown; particularly within their puberty cycle. For the sake of your health, I must tend to this now that I have the opportunity to do so. My personal guard will arrive within the next two days to safety escort you to my castle without issue. I also grant you permission to spend a night within the city, should you wish to visit Princess Twilight’s parents before attending our meeting while I return the following day from a trip.
Oh and please do pack lightly~
Best Regards,
Princess Celestia
“…” Spike’s expression softened as he finished reading the letter that Celestia wrote to him. He glazed his attention elsewhere before he placed the letter down on the table. “…” Spike then closed his eyes and rubbed his temple before letting out a loud sigh.
“Something the matter Spike?”
Spike opened one eye to see that Pinkie Pie had brought over his order. She was basically the same, maintaining a familiar smile that was impossible not to admire. “What’s on your mind Spike?” she asked cheerfully, placing his shake on the table.
“Hey Pinkie,” said Spike, showcasing a smile of his own. “Just got a letter from Celestia, and she wants to me visit her this week,” he explained.
“Wow really?! That’s so cool!” Pinkie Pie said with excitement. “Why would that keep you down?” she then asked.
Spike’s smile began to vanish as he looked at the blue milkshake in front of him. “…” He grabbed it and slowly began to sip without saying another word.
“…” Pinkie Pie maintained the same smile for at least ten seconds before she became impatient with her dragon friend. “Spike…tell me…what’s…up….”
“…” Spike started to get annoyed as Pinkie Pie was moving closer and closer towards his cheek, intending to get something out of him. “Let it go Pinkie…”
“Like hell I will!” protested Pinkie. Okie dokie lokie! she thought.
“…?!”
Spike turned immediately red as Pinkie Pie began to seductive him with a nuzzle. “Spiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiike…I wanna know what’s on your mind-”
“Mrs. Cake, help! I am being sexually harassed!” Spike called out.
“PINKIE!”
“TRADIOR!”
*Five minutes later*
“Celestia why doesn’t Pinkie Pie just ever just let things go?” Spike wondered aloud, not expecting Pinkie to go that far. Then again, Pinkie Pie was not one to underestimate on a regular basis. Regardless, he flew back to his home where he walked inside searching for Twilight. “Twilight?” he called out. “Twiiiiiiliiiiiiiight!”
“Yes Spike?”
Spike looked forward to see that Twilight was walking towards him with scroll in hand. She was wearing a large white sweater that was long enough to reach her knees and almost cover her hands. Her hair was a bit messy and she was wearing her reading glasses while a pencil was between her lips “What’s up Spike?” she asked, stopping in front of him with a smile after removing her writing tool.
“Hey Twilight, Celestia wants me to go to Canterlot,” said Spike.
“She does?” Twilight asked, raising an eyebrow. “What for?”
Spike chuckled as he held up the letter he recently received. “Well, she said that dragon puberty isn’t as straight forward as we thought; she said that I am likely going to experience another change inside of me eventually. So, she wants me to meet with her so that she can ‘help’ me deal with them.” Spike explained.
“Wait, so something is still going to happen to you? I mean, you look like a young adult dragon!” Twilight argued. If anything, Spike did possess the traits that one would see in a young adult dragon: tall stature, wings, thicker scales, etc. Even his flames were improved to a certain extent, which could melt nearly anything that he came across. There was also the high sex drive that Spike carried for quite some time before he learned to control himself. “I mean, the only think that I could think of is…oh.”
“Twilight? What’s wrong?” asked Spike. Twilight’s expression told him that she just realize something that could be troublesome.
“Well…the only think I can think of is…” Twilight paused as she looked at Spike from his feet, all the way to the ceiling passed his head. “…is your size from what you are now, to one of the dragons we’ve ran into. And I mean the ones who lived in caves,” she explained.
Spike’s expression changed, realizing what Twilight was getting at. “What- Come on Twilight; I am not going to grow into the size of our house! I mean, that would take years before I reach prime adulthood!” Spike explained.
Twilight rolled her eyes as she said, “But still, your growth spurt could start up again at any time. Hell, some ponies I know didn’t get to their current sizes until a little later than most. And others, a little sooner. So maybe that concept applies to dragons as well?”
“Well…I guess you have a point,” Spike admitted. While he wanted to deny the very idea that he was going to change again anytime soon, he did have very little knowledge when it came to his own race. And Celestia was pretty knowledgeable when it came to providing knowledge, knowledge one would never expect to gain when they needed it the most. “Well I guess I’ll start packing my things,” suggested Spike.
“I’ll help you,” offered Twilight.
After making it to Spike’s room, both he and Twilight spent a few minutes gathering his things into a small duffel bag. Despite Twilight’s protests, Spike insisted to pack very little as by Princess Celestia’s instructions. He paused when there was a quarter of space left to use.
“I think that’s good,” Spike said, placing the bag by the side of his bed. “I am going to tell Applejack tomorrow about my trip. Then maybe I’ll get a chance to say good bye to everyone else?”
“If you want,” said Twilight. “But I do wish that I could go with you since you’ll be seeing my parents,” Twilight confessed. While her desire to see her parents made her envious, she knew that she still had responsibilities while living in Ponyville. That and traveling to wherever she was needed the most.
It was not difficult for Spike to understand how much Twilight wanted to go with him. Humbly, he said, “I am just lucky that Princess Celestia is giving me a chance to see them before I stay in the castle. From what it sounds like, I’ll be spending a lot of time within the castle itself focusing on my dragon anatomy…or something like that.”
Twilight shrugged before saying, “Well whatever it is, I hope that you can figure it out.” She smiled as she came closer and said, “Just say hi to my parents for me, okay?”
Spike smiled, giving a nod before answering with, “Okay.” With that, the two of them shared a hug that lasted for a good minute.
*Two days later*
“Well have a good trip okay?”
“I will.”
“Don’t forget to write Spike!”
“Like I would forget!”
“Say hi to my parents when you see them okay?”
“For the 100th time, I KNOW.”
Spike laughed as he waved goodbye to his friends who came to see him off. Pretty much everyone that he knew and cared for was present. It was a beautiful day as the blue sky and large clouds made Spike feel optimistic towards this trip. He waved and waved as the chariot lifted off the ground and headed into the sky. He felt the wind rushing through him as Celestia’s royal guard wasted no time getting Spike to where he needed to get to. It was quite surprising to Spike that these Pegasus guards were able to maintain consistent flight for long periods of time, indicating their impressive stamina. In fact, Spike expected them to agree to his suggestion of resting after a few hours in the air, only to be naturally rejected said offer.
Wonder what kind of training they have for the royal guard. I mean, Shining Armor is in good shape but I had no idea that a Pegasus would be able to go this far without rest, Spike thought. At least the last time he was escorted, they didn’t mind taking a few breaks every now and then before he first arrived in Ponyville with Twilight. Goodness, how things changed ever since they moved to Ponyville.
What would life be like if we never left? wondered Spike.
*Four hours later*
Spike smiled as the familiar grand city known as Canterlot had finally came into view, arousing Spike’s curiosity and wonder. Despite all the years of living in Canterlot, it was never tiring to witness its beauty from afar. Watching it silhouetted with the sun setting down brought a sense of pleasantness within Spike, as he was looking forward to tonight. Being away from Ponyville after receiving consistent stress in recent weeks, was exactly what he needed. It took only a few minutes before they landed within Canterlot itself, thus ending the long journey that was endured between the three of them. Spike happily stepped down from the chariot with a bag over his shoulder, thankful to have the opportunity to stretch his legs on solid ground. He gave a nodded gesture towards the two guards before making his way down the steps.
Wonder if Twilight’s parents even know if I am arriving, thought Spike. He would naturally have assumed since Celestia herself insisted; she or Twilight would have likely informed them. If that was the case, however, then where were they? Spike frowned as he reached the end of the stairwell and found himself completely alone. Not even a single guard was around, as the ones who escorted him flew away to report their successful trip. “…” Spike lowered his head, reconsidering if he should even take this to be a personal night or not. Then again, perhaps he could surprise them?
“SPIKE!”
Spike’s ears perked up as he suddenly turned his head to see a familiar face. “Mr. Night Light,” he said softly. He smiled happily as he waved at him, feeling relieved that somepony was here to pick him up. Night Light did not change at all in the last few months, as he still had a familiar face that brought warmth to Spike's heart. This father figure in his life wore a dark blue coat over a white buttoned shirt, while also wearing black pants and brown shoes that looked expensive.
Night Light smiled as he hurried his movement towards the familiar purple dragon. Embracing him, he said, “Spike! My, have you grown since the last time I saw you!” While he recalled the letters that his daughter sent to him and his wife, she was always vague with the exact height that Spike now stood. "And you have wings too!" he added.
“Yeah, I had a growth spurt during my last birthday,” Spike explained. As they pulled apart, Night Light wrapped an arm around him.
“Well Twilight did tell us that you would be different…I just wasn’t expecting you to be taller than me!” Night Light said with a laugh. “Honestly, seeing you with wings is surprising enough! Nice to know that we have another flier in the family!”
Family… Spike thought. “Y-Yeah, quite something isn’t it? Where is Twilight’s mother by the way?” Spike asked. If anything, he was expecting to see her as well.
“Oh she’s preparing dinner for us as we speak. I did insist that we have a nice fancy meal since we don’t get to see you nor our children that often. It’s a shame that Twilight couldn’t come,” he explained with a small sigh. He and Spike continued to walk out of the castle property itself, knowing that they couldn’t keep Velvet waiting longer than she needed to.
“Hey that’s great!” Spike exclaimed happily. It's been a while since I've had a homecooked meal by Twilight's mom!
“But tell me Spike, I was surprised to learn that Princess Celestia invited you regarding your recent changes. Could you maybe tell me a little more about that? From what Twilight told us, it sounded quite important,” said Night Light. While he knew that dragons were a special case within the country that he lived in, he did not expect her majesty to take personal interest. Perhaps because she was close to Spike as Spike was to his own family?
Spike was skeptical about going into greater detail, but he knew that this was going to be a pressing topic. After all, it was the only reason why he was even here in Canterlot. “Well maybe when we get home? I don’t want to have to explain everything again to your wife after telling you,” Spike explained. “After all, the night is still young, right?”
Night Light chuckled as he nodded. “True Spike, very true.”
It took them almost half an hour before they found themselves within the area that Night Light and Velvet lived in. It was a nice area, nicer than what Spike remembered when he and Twilight lived in Canterlot. Then again, improvements were seemingly made and having children such as Twilight and Shinning Armor likely came with some perks. Regardless, it didn’t help the fact that some ponies were focusing their attention on a tall purple dragon making his way into the Sparkle home. He did his best to ignore them as some of the children began to point and whisper about him.
Celestia do I wish for more dragons to live around here…
“Here we are! Home sweet home,” Night Light said cheerfully. He pulled out some keys out of his coat and began to unlock the door. After a few seconds, it clicked and opened completely, allowing the two of them to walk inside without issue. “Velvet honey, we’re home!”
Spike glanced around his surroundings and smiled; everything was just as he remembered. While there was a few added home decorations that he never saw before, everything else brought nostalgia that Spike appreciated to an extent. Home sweet home…
“Honey? Where are you?” Night Light called out.
“Oh sorry!” said a voice from the kitchen. “I’ll be out in a few seconds!”
“Come on honey! Spike is here!” Night Light insisted.
“Oh that’s right!”
Spike smiled as he heard a few things in the kitchen being dropped, indicating that Velvet wanted to waste not another second. Thus, she immediately popped out of the kitchen and smiled brightly as she came over to them. “Spike! My have you grown! It’s so good to see you!”
“Same Mrs. Velvet!” Spike said, smiling widely as they immediately hugged each other for a good ten seconds. It was funny that she was shorter than him now, as he always remembered her having to kneel down in order to hug him. She still had that familiar fragrance that made him smile, knowing that if Twilight wasn’t around to make him feel better, she would take over that role. Once they broke away, he said, “Really happy that I get to see you two again after so long. Wish Twilight was here with us though.”
Velvet nodded as she showed a sad smile. “Oh so do I sweetie, but I am sure that Celestia has her reasons for not inviting her. Although I am confused why she didn’t?” Velvet had barely changed in appearance, as it was only months since Spike last saw her. She was wearing a red blouse and a black skirt, black pantyhose leggings and a white apron. She may have recently become a grandmother, but she was still beautiful nonetheless, which would make anypony envious of Night Light.
“I’ll tell you about at dinner honey,” said Night Light, casually placing a hand on Spike’s shoulder. “Speaking of which, is it ready? Because it smells delicious honey!”
Velvet smiled as she moved closer to him. “In about five minutes,” she said sweetly, kissing him on the cheek.
*One hour later*
“So you really became the dominate dragon in all of Equestria Spike? That’s pretty impressive!” praised Velvet.
“And it was pretty mature of you to pass along that title to someone who you thought would do a better job!” added Night Light.
“Well I just thought that she was trustworthy, and figured that she was in a better position than me to lead our kind. And I have to be honest: I am glad that I don’t have to be the Dragon Lord in order to make sure that things stay peaceful,” Spike confessed happily, taking another sip of wine. “AH… Also, Ember has become Twilight’s newest pen pal. So it’s also improving relations between Celestia’s kingdom and the dragons themselves!”
Night Light was excited after hearing those words. He immediately dropped the bread that he was holding and reached for his wife’s hand. “Can you believe that?? Our daughter is also making history here!”
The feeling was mutual with Velvet as she nodded with excitement. “Y-Yes! Yes, she is! Oh my, I couldn’t be any prouder of my little Twilight…well she’s not so ‘little’ anymore- but it’s still amazing!” she exclaimed.
“I always knew that she was destined for great things,” Night Light admitted with pride. His own daughter was actually becoming friends with the dragon leader herself! “Such an accomplishment…I wonder why she never told us?”
“Oh now honey; she’s likely too busy to give us frequent updates of what goes on in her life!” Velvet pointed out.
Spike smirked as he finished his glass of wine and continued to listen to the praising from Twilight’s parents. Dinner was just so wonderful and satisfying, as they both knew exactly how to make a meal that himself could enjoy. It was funny considering that normally he would be with Twilight, enjoying the evening together with him and her parents. Hell this was the first time that he was having dinner with only the Sparkles and without one of their children present. The thought reminded Spike of how independent he became following the anniversary of his birth. He did not need to be by Twilight’s side for everything that occurred in his life anymore. He was his own free dragon, not requiring the presence of another as if he were a child. Was his recent growth spurt really a bad thing after everything he experienced since? Only time would tell.
