Kaden snorted again at the mention of a tragedy that had nothing to do with never eating chocolate again. Yeah. Sure. He was human shaped again. Everything was fine now. Tragedy averted! Thank the gods and also wizards and witches, right!?
He could have easily gone down the well worn moody-and-bitter path. Partially he did. But then Merlin opened up the magical smoke ring path, and it stopped him saying anything bitchy for the moment (bitchy but fully true, because come on.) He leaned back against the planter box, and watched it disappear into the sky. The arrow held its shape for far longer than any smoke arrow had a right to.
"Thas pretty cool," he admitted, once it was fully gone, then dropped his eyes back over to Merlin, to see if he was going to do it again.
