I have a sick habit of getting into giantess stories involving a fairly depressing main character who is mercilessly abused over the course of the story. Because I always have the naive optimism that maybe, just maybe, this story will focus on the character overcoming these obstacles using the powers of persuasion or trickery. Or maybe they go too far and guilt will overcome the people torturing him. Or even the bullies actually have a crush on the main guy. Just anything to change this kid's luck before he reaches the point of utter anguish and perpetual misery.

My point is, in a GOOD story where humiliation is a common theme, I put myself into his shoes, and my emotions tend to run high. In a GOOD story, I do NOT want the character driven to the point that I am seriously suggesting suicide is a good way to end his torment (or at least faking his death). I don't like being depressed.

Your story is REALLY GOOD so far. I'm afraid of what's coming! In a good way. I hope...

THANK you! 

I also have that same habit of putting myself into the shoes of the main character, not necessarily in the humiliation stories but it is a general thing, especially if the main character is a guy. I can't tell you what Alvin does or what happens to him but I can tell you that you won't have to wait long, the answer( or part of it) is just around the corner.

Yay! I get a cookie for watching too many Disney movies!

No but I'm glad you won't go along with what I say. I enjoy being surprised in stories and I really am looking forward to what you have instore for this one, I can tell it'll be great. You have some well set up characters here. Katharine seems like a nice enough girl even if she and Alvin aren't very close. And Cassie has peaked my interest. Is she really as bad as Alvin claims? Or is that only a school rumor and she's instead extremely nice and gentle?

And of couse I respect Alvin, this chapter only enforced that. He takes shit from his sister and her friends but digs deep and endures through it all. I don't expect him to fight back, they're Amazon's, how can you fight against them? He tries his best to survive and escape and, when he can't, he takes his beatings and moves on (at least that's what it sounded like when he talked about that bruise on his arm in the first chapter).

My only issue is Katharine cassually picking him up. If they were close friends then I would be fine with it. But you described them as friendly with each other but not close friends. I just feel that she should show a little respect and consideration for his smaller size and ask him if he would mind being picked up. I mean, if she's going to be in a group for Women's Rights then she would have to practice what she preaches and treat him as more of an equal. But that's just nitpicking.

All in all it's only been two chapters and I'm already hooked. Great work.

Author's Response:

Rumours are well....a mixture of fact and fiction in unequal volumes so it's very difficult to sift out the truth from the hearsay. 

He can't fight back, he lacks specialised training to do so and even if he did, anything more than one Amazon would be near impossible. Lets not even bring Titans in, can you defeat a being so large you're the size of her finger? I wouldn't say he takes the beating rather than Wendy simply giving it to him.

Katharine well....she's young. Her journey has yet to begin and I'll let vgiv deal with that. 

Glad to see you're hooked. Hope the rest of the story is as good!

I really hope Katharine and Cassie are featured more... I wonder if Cassie and Alvan will finally meet up ?

Author's Response:

Hmmm.....you'll have to....wait and see? :)
