I love your turning this into something meaningful, I really hope you let Scott resist
Author's Response:
Thanks. We'll see Scott being a little less passive in TO7.

Interesting story/series. The number of enemies this guy has is off the charts. Reviewer Jimbob makes a good point. Scott can get out of this if he finds the mental strenght and determination to play it smart. It's hard to decide what the best course or satisfying course of action will be for Scott. But the end result must be that he never have to deal with his family and other enemies again. Only than will he truly be free. Should he just try to escape to another state/country or take his revenge on everyone first? In both cases it will hit the family hard. If there is no more Scott to punish, guess who will be next in line to be the victims of a frustrating selfdestructive Judy. If Scott dies in the process he'll also be free. Away from his crazy mother and his weak-minded siblings.
Love your worlds full of peril, where someone must fight for his freedom against a super hostile environment. Your character development, etc is also excellent.
Author's Response:
Scott definitely has a lot of people working against him in this story. There is a way out of all this for him (supposedly) as long as he can put up with it for now and push through. Scott's not quite the revenge taking type, but you never know. Thanks for reviewing.

Btw (and this is my last comment, I swear), I used to think that Mr Stevens was either the real object of Judy's, ehm, bad feelings, or a bad thought she wanted to remove - he might spoil her public image after all.
After a bit of reflection I'm starting to think she left the tv on on purpose, so that Scott knows that refusing will not accomplish anything, she'll just make the same proposal to Mr Stevens after shrinking him.
All the above assuming that she cannot be linked in any way to his scam of course!
Author's Response:
Hehe. Well, I don't want to say anything that will spoil something from the 7th story. But you're on track to think that just about everything Judy does to Scott is very calculated in order to send a message.

That was unexpected, I almost thought his dad had been forgotten many chapters ago!
I have too many things in my head to write them properly, so I hope you'll forgive me for a bullet list...
- I second Jimbob's comment entirely.
- eleven month? Just curious - he know exactly how long he's supposed to serve, or was he really daydreaming when the judge told him?
- "I think you'll surprise yourself" - weird how Ella might have said the exact same words; I hope he does.
- I can't stop thinking about the alternative of Judy acting like she said she might and threatening to go back to her old ways if he doesn't do as told. That would have taken a few more chapters, but I swear it's a coincidence...
- I can finally read Julia's new chapters! BWAHAHAHA!
Author's Response:
The eleven months is for his first disciplinary board review - he's not necessarily going to be freed at that point. Scott certainly will be surprising himself (and probably others) in the future.
Thanks for all your reviews on this. Hope you like the new Julia!

Holy shit, Scott's dad is not only alive but a criminal!! Can't wait to see where you take that little tidbit of information.
As for Judy and Scott's powwow, that happened exactly liked I'd hoped. She was so cold and calloused but yet in her mind had his best interests at heart. But then when she gave him the ultimatum, I felt like his description was accurate. She just wants him to be a mascot or poster child for this Shrink Act phenomenon and she will either use him for that or use him for her own enjoyment(of course that's my favorite choice for him). Since he doesn't want to let her win, he may be spending a lot more time at an inch tall under or around her giant sized 12s. I especially liked it when she playfully bounced her foot knowing full well the ramifications of such a small action from her to tiny Scott between her toes.
But Scott may have a little light because Maggie most likely will be less inclined to torment him now but if Scott doesn't take Judy's offer then she could employ someone else's help to blatantly humiliate her son.(which that could include Nancy or somebody else from her book club)
Overall I'm extremely satisfied with how Judy dropped the hammer on Scott. She's an awesome character and hope she's still the main focal point of the next story.

PS would it be out of the realm of possibilities to suggest Scott be forced to give his mother a pedicure? Like with lotion and the whole nine yards? At her(and my) preferred height of course.
Author's Response:
Thanks for reading/reviewing, man. Good points about Judy and Scott, and even if he doesn't decide for a little while, he's still going to be spending some time down at that height regardless.
Things will definitely appear different with Maggie in the next story, even if things aren't completely fixed with Scott yet. I won't spoil, but there will be others besides Judy tormenting Scott in the next story. And considering what I'm titling the next one, Judy will indeed be a focal point.
That pedicure image may indeed be something you see in a future story. ;)

Amazing story, can't wait to see part 7, hopefully won't have to wait too long...

Oh man I need to refresh my memory! What Maggie's blackmail are you talking about?
Author's Response:
"Blackmail" was probably not the right term, but he's talking about when she put him in her mouth in exchange for calling Ella.

What a great end. Ang how will both Judy and Scott behave after learning about his dad? I also feel the fight between Scot and Judy is not over yet. And to reply to your previous comment I thought Scott would blow up at Maggie for feeling that she was blackmailing him and using his phone privilages to get her way. I thought He might be Mad at that. As for critiquing the writing there is one that does not make sense to me. The first is where Judy is explaining to Scott about living a normal life and part of it is "You can leave the house with us..." and goes on about eating normal and stuff. I believe that "You can live in the house with us..." is better than "You can leave the house with us." The way you use leave means if something is changing. For instance if you re-wrote the chapter but you wanted to leave a previous chapter in. I believe that you used the verb wrong and that it should be changed. Spelling wise I found no mistakes. This was a great chapter and a great ending to a great story. I hope that the next story in the series is already in your head. There are so many ways to look take this story, especially with his dad being found and arrested. Will Judy be in charge of his dad now too? If so will this take away some of the "tprture: Scott will endure or will Judy take the frustration out on Scott for his dad appearing out of nowhere? These are just a few Ideas I can think of with these two. I cannot even imagine what Maggie will do or say when she finds out about her dad; that is if she even remembers him. I cannot wait for the next installment. Keep up the great work.
Author's Response: Ah, I see what you meant; Scott still isn't happy about Maggie's blackmail, though compared to some of the newer problems he has to deal with now, that is less at the front of his mind. Glad you're paying attention to spelling; however, in this case, "leave" is the right word, because she's talking about him being allowed to go out to restaurants or even on vacations sometimes with the family, once the court decides to alter the conditions of his arrest. Thanks for reviewing!

Didn't see that revelation coming, always wondered where Scott's dad was.
Another great story in the Time-Out saga. I look forward to part 7. Maybe with one of Scott's siblings getting a shrink punishment too?
Speaking of, i look forward to see how Scott's and Maggie's relationship improves, that seriously is my favorite development so far, especially since Scott's relationship with his brother has soured.
Author's Response:
Thanks! I won't spoil names, but I will say various other people besides Scott will be shrinking too in part 7.
Scott and Maggie still have a ways to go, but it can certainly only improve after some of what happened in this story.

Bravo my good man, you've taken her from slightly overbearing to down right dark overlord.
Also I'm happy to read whatever comes next but quietly hoping for the finish of Julia or Blackmail 5 lol
Author's Response:
Thanks very much. Judy's definitely got a new image going for her after this story.
And actually, there will be some Julia coming in the not-too-distant future.

GREAT END ! I agree with jimbob about Judy's hanging threat to let Nancy abuse of scott is very sick n twisted. i bet that his dad is framed by techlogic too Looking foward the part 7 n yours new stories!
Ps: I missed the part where judy ban scott from eating normal meats! Can you tell what scott eat then? Table scraps? Which part of TO this ban is implanted?
Author's Response:
Thanks man; I've appreciated all your feedback on this story.
Judy never actually "banned" Scott from eating normal meals, and he sometimes does, like with the pancakes in an early chapter. Most of the time he doesn't get to eat at the table though or have the same food as them.

If Maggie told Judy about Nancy raping Scott, and Judy isn't going to do anything about it, that's going to really undermine her daughter's trust. All of what Maggie has been doing to Scott was mostly from the belief that he needed to be punished for his crime. Watching her mother give a friend a free pass on what is widely considered to be one of the worst crimes is going to make her realize that her mother doesn't really care at all about the justice system and is just using it AND her son as tools for her political career. What's going to happen when Kyle finds out? Or Ella? Or when it gets out to the public that her campaign manager raped her son and she knew and didn't report it? Because I don't think Maggie, Kyle, or Ella will stay quiet forever about it. I really hope this is what comes back to bite her in the ass.
Author's Response:
That's a good thought about Maggie - her views of her mother, as well as Scott, may be in a different place in the next story as a result, and force her to confront some of her mother's drivel about justice. I won't spoil, but I will say there will certainly be ramifications of Nancy's actions felt later on.
