[IT HAD BETTER. Because hunting for two is a lot of work, especially as they both continue to grow. In another couple years, the rest of Vanitas' adult scales come in, and his hide goes from a duller black to a shiny, iridescent obsidian.
The two horns that curve away from the back of his skull lengthen, too, curling upwards until they resemble an antelope's. His muscles too become more pronounced as he goes from a relatively slender frame to something more robust and powerful.
And their shared den grows a bit, too. Vanitas allows the smaller dragon to build his own nest inside, in an adjacent limb of the natural cavern. In colder seasons though, it becomes routine to wake up with the goldscale half-curled against his side with his head resting against his back. At first it's annoying, but as it goes on Vanitas just accepts that the shared warmth isn't that bad on his end, either.]
let me know if this timeskip's okay o7
