Now, I certainly don't mean to offend, but man!
Was that short or what?

Don't get me wrong, some short stories can get away with it by providing interesting twists, such as unique backgrounds, characters, or themes. While these stories are worth questioning more about, we're left to ponder deep into them.

It's just that this story is far too short to pull off anything. You haven't given even the smallest chance for development. Again, unique situations are worth asking these questions, but Sean and his Absol just aren't that interesting to begin with.

If anything, the Absol from what is written certainly doesn't sound fit to be in the wild. Yes, children and adults can both make mistakes, but while children have no experience with this as such they tend to learn in difficult ways, adults have experienced much of the world. Now I certainly don't know if 13 in Absol years means he's showing youth or age, but taking on more than you can chew doesn't seem very smart independent of age. Regardless, the intelligence of the Absol isn't really a valid arguing point for such a quick tale.

The resounding problem is that it's really just too short. These stories don't need to be on a grand scale, but they certainly shouldn't be limited to be around 1000 words. What can you hope to accomplish in so little space, you know?

I don't doubt this was effortless: I'm just saying it needs more effort.

I read this story on Fanfiction! It's so cute! I love this story and I hope you keep writing!

Now for a little critique. The flow of the story is pretty nice, but I think it would be a lot better if you added a bit more built-up of feelings and showed a little more interaction between the two. Besides that, I really love this! :3
