"A photo of my family...
that I always loved."

Med: Ther. Ther! Wake up. Oh.

Ther woke up in the evening in the park near his house. He saw 2 familiar faces waking him up.

Ther: Med? You are... And Cob too?
Cob: Good evening, bro. Med was just moved back today so I think you're definitely gonna get excited.
Med: But we've been waiting for you for quite long though so we came out to pick you up.
Cob: I didn't expect you to fallen asleep here though.
Ther: I'm just taking a quick nap. Don't worry too much okay? By the way, What about you, Med? Are you sure doing it though? Have you tell Kon yet?
Cob: Oh yeah. Was the other guy ok with you too?
Med: Hehe. It's all fine right now. He did understand it and did support me all the way. And I also have met Kon this morning too. Though. Ther, Cob... I am not the same anymore.
Ther: What do you mean? You're talking, acting, looking the same. Don't look down on yourself. Even if you are. We'll be here to protect you. Try smiling don't you?
Med: Ther...
Cob: *smiles* See? Everyone will understand no matter how much you've changed. Physically, mentally or whatever. Just 2 horns on your head won't change anything. We're still love you.
Ther: Horns? Have you actually growing horns all this time?
Med: I... Didn't know what actually happened inside me but when I finally know something. It started to pop up a day after.
Cob: A few months ago. He came to me really afraid of it, asking me for an advice. Back then it wasn't being this long though.
Ther: Mmm mmm. Can I take a look at it?
Med: P-please don't break it.
Cob: Hey. Don't think like that.
Ther: It's okay, Med. I'm just gonna look. Okay? We're not mad or upset at you.
Med: Okay...

Ther go to Med's back to take a look at his new growing horns. They're a bit small for a dragons but still.

Ther: Oh. Your horns looks amazing I love the curves it has. And ss I expected since I met you. You're actually a dragon!
Cob: Oh great! Now we have another dragon on our family.
Med: Is that so... I thought you might get disgusted at me for turning into an amalgamation like this...
Ther: ...
Med: I'm such a loser who doesn't even know his body or emotion... And now all the time I was being afraid of getting hated for not-

Ther and Cob are getting a bit worried and see that Med is gonna cry so he interrupt Med before he could say something worse.

Ther: Hey Med. Whatever happens in the past happened. Just don't care about it and move on to the better things. Now that you're finally here is all that matters.
Cob: The past is the past you know. We here all have some kind of a horrible past. That's why we're here for each other. Cheer up! Med.
Med: I... Thank you so much Cob, Ther. I think I owed you two for this again.
Cob: Aww come on, Med. You didn't owed us anything.
Ther: Or maybe... A happy hug together perhaps?
Cob: Heck yeah! Hahah... You two are so soft man.
Ther: Oh my god! so tight... dude.
Med: (...Thank you.)

And then both of them giggles a bit and stay hugging each other for a bit before sunset and went to Cob's house together. They meet Kon along the way too.

A bit of a sequel to the last art tho. also back to my usual artstyle again.

Btw. this... maybe the first time I draw the real Med in full. All Med in his real form I draw since February 2025 (I think) are all in Kon's mind tho. he's kinda look a bit different from the last time tho. I guess the seal is getting released from now?
