this valid, it mainly sucks that he only took that form due to having zero guidance on what he is and the key knowledge that would’ve made him pick an older form first. like he fr picked it because it was the first human form he ever saw. hoping the author keeps it platonic + there’s distance + and then hyo starts his one sided pursuing. there’s no way taehyuk will start liking him right after he gets bigger it’d be so weird and inappropriate. not to mention we don’t know the forms he’ll change into since it’s not really “growing” just evolving. but also there’s no romantic/sexual context to their relationship, their love for each other can start out pure (no lust), it’s too early to assume taehyuk just raises him and also that hyo is childlike- because when they called him a child i was thinking they meant dragon child compared to other experienced worldly beings, not a human-like child
What is up with the massive cope in the comments section. He ACTS LIKE A CHILD because he's a young dragon, dude was born recently. He doesn't know who he is and doesn't have enough life experience to act like an adult, to have agency and be self reliant. He isn't mentally mature enough to take on the form of an adult and act like one. The fact that they met when he looks and acts like a child is unnerving in this romantic/sexual relationship context. Period. Anyone who doesn't feel grossed out by it is fine, there hasn't been anything damning yet. But those who DO dislike this dynamic are completely justified. No "mythical creature" excuse takes away the discomfort of watching a child and an adult in the context of them being in a relationship.
