This is micman4202 latest commission. This one has a bit more of a back story to it than the original. I had fun making this simply because I had this little story playing out in my head as I was drawing it. I particularly like the shadows on the wall. It gives it a bit more depth I think.
Fankyooo for commissioning me. It really means a lot.
******************
Saffy sulked as her mom insisted that before she could go outside and play, her mom wanted to measure Saffy's height on the door frame just like she had done the first time Saffy had been a kid growing up. The rejuvenated skunk girl trudged to the door frame looking up from her new, shorter height, to see the different ages she had been marked off at over the years. Her gaze travelled to the top, where she had scribbled over the final time in a bratty act of defiance, believing it to be far to childish for her mature age of 12 to be measuring her height.. Saffy sighed. She was 25 now and well...she looked down at her chubby paws. The paws of a two year old. How did it come to this?
“Come on sweetie, up against the wall, the sooner we get this done the sooner you can play. Can you show mommy how much you've grown”
Her mom said in a cheerful manner.
Something about her mom's tone made Saffy's heart leap in her chest, she was determined to be tall, to prove to her mommy that she was growing up good and strong. She stood on tiptoes.
“Ah ah! No cheating, you little minx” Instantly Saffy's heels touched the carpet she tried to move her head round to see where her mom was marking the wall and her mom chuckled.
“Head straight silly, or I can't mark it properly”
Ever so slowly Saffy slowly stood on tiptoes again. What had started off as a stupid chore to the regressed skunk had now become quite childishly important.
Saffy's mom smiled, seeing what her adult, turned toddler, daughter was playing at. It was so cute, Saffy's bratty manner when she had been 25 had been almost unbearable, but as a toddler it was simply endearing. Saffy's mom intentionally added an extra centimetre to the mark on the wall. She didn't want to let Saffy see that she had, in fact not grown any taller at all.
“My look how you've grown!” She said proudly to Saffy who swivelled round in excitement to see the mark on the wall and puffed out her chest proudly, feeling childish elation wash over her, making her forget momentarily that she was infact a 25 year old grown skunk and not some little cub. She giggled and clapped her paws as her Mommy let her into the front garden to play.

heheh that too cute there. who says growing down is a bad thing? ^^
so adorable. great pic and the little story makes it even cuter^^
This is the best Saffy picture yet... I always love the height measurement AR theme ... Makes me wonder why I haven't used it with Kammy yet... Hmmmmm...
Fankyoo. I really had fun frawing this one. Its nice having little stories and suchlike going on
I wanna know what happened to her. How did it happen and I kinda wish it could happen in real life
hehe she actually has her own user page http://www.furaffinity.net/user/saffyskunk but theres a number of little saffy stories through my gallery. Saffy was the first furry i properly drew
Kinda makes me feel sorry for that Saffy. She must be exasperated she can't reach door handles and stuff of the shelf like she used to. But her mother's here to help her.
