I completely forgot about Vesper. Brooklyn has been controlling this story in terms of who is luring me on. Then it's Sersei, followed by Vesper. I would love to see Vesper step her game up.
Just to clarify, some of the power drained from a normal person becomes trapped in the stone and when someone accesses this stone, they can use the power from the stone to locate any tiny guy.
So now we know why Edith Frost is so confident in finding Oliver. Due to the natural flow of the story, I don't see Oliver at all getting in the hands of Edith Frost so I felt that Sersei was going to get him eventually or Oliver gets normal. Now this stone will add another option with Vesper.
Now the choice is Sersei or Vesper. Who would I like to see have Oliver? I pick Vesper. I enjoy seeing Sersei struggle and get outwitted by Oliver. She felt so confident about getting Oliver that I couldn't help but enjoy her desperation for him.
Vesper on the other hand has this charm to her that intrigues me. She seduced him before at the shop and she has those tiny glass human dildos with her. Imagine the kinky stuff she comes up with. Definately Vesper.
Random stuff:
Duggernaut, you left us with quite the cliffhanger last time. Will Oliver reveal Cam's position. Will Cery's trick Oliver to tell the truth.
Also, can we just acknowledge that the beautiful, lustful, horny Brooklyn has lost her sex toy. She will know that Cam is gone and I'm sure she is smart enough to know that Cam couldn't have don't it alone. If she doesn't find or get Cam back soon, I think Deacon would be a great replacement. He even admires her. I wonder how he would react to a close up.
I can't wait for the next chapter!

During Sersei’s visit to Grandma Eleanor Crawford, the topic shifts away from locating Oliver to Grandma Crawford’s early days at the university. Sersei begins, “so Grandma, tell me about your days at Omega Pi and what it was like”. “Oh, my dear, things were a little different in those days fifty years ago. We weren’t as forward as you girls are now with your pink wrist bands and asking boys for dates”. “Really Grandma, how sweet. Tell me about Grandpa and how you met him”. “Well honey, I saw your Grandfather on campus and he approached me one day. He was such a handsome young man, I was really taken with him. He was both funny and smart. A really caring person. He had such great aspirations for his life after college. We went on a few dates and soon enough, I just knew that he was the one. He was a very passionate young man”. “What happened next Grandma?” “Well, the girls were having a get together at the sorority house, and I thought that this would be the perfect time to Introduce him to my Omega sisters. Everyone just loved your Grandfather and I was so happy”. “What a great story Grandma. Is there more?” “Well, just one other thing my dear. That night we drugged your Grandfather, held the Reaping ritual and shrank him down. You should have seen the look on his face when he woke up in that shoe box, absolutely priceless! He lasted four days before he suffocated inside me. Those were wonderful times.” “Thanks for sharing Grandma, what a great story. I hope I meet my Mr. Right one day too.”

That is a very good question @Shrinkmeister. It does seem like a confirmation of Cerys’ pitch, but I’m guessing she’s using bits of conversation Oliver may or may not have heard and weaving her story around them....so he’s heard about slimy Samantha, but not about the missing stone.
Remember how good these creatures are at pretending to be humans....I’m sure at some point, when she was young and digusting, a bunch of her peers got together and put young Cerys in her place. She stopped saying "I want to be a chef and bake you all in a pie." and stated saying "when I grow up I wanna be a nurse and help people." So, naturally she has nightmares about someone doing that to the whole lot of them. She can imaging that any ethically normal person would expect such an organization to rise up. She imagines a bunch of her own turning on her. She weaves that dread into her tale.
I can also imagine her sucking up to Alley or Vesper at some point when the other is around and hearing about the missing stone.
Lets face it, it’s still a sorority house, something weird happens like Oliver gets away and gossip and speculation are going to run wild....”did you hear about Oliver’s mother?” “Could it have something to do with the missing stone?” She knows Oliver could overhear any of this. Being something other than morally retarded he can’t imagine a resistance movement not arising. He’s going to be a sucker again.

Is it possibe that Cerys' story to Oliver may have actually been true? The missing weeping stone she described has been verified by Gramma "I wanna live forever" Crawford... Could Cerys really be an ally to Cam and Oliver?

Hmmmm! If Oliver and Cam _were_ to give Cerys the benefit of the doubt, and they were down her cleavage at the same time Sersei started her dowsing, would the latter dare frisk the former?

Pix... My thoughts exactly. Where was... "Oh... How has your brother adjusted to his new life?". Cam has been completely written off as a person. He is now only a possession of the sisters. As Sersei stated to Harmony... a cigarette butt. Something else stands out. The last name Crawford is maternal. The father's last name was never taken which leads me to believe there was no marriage. The father does his part to produce offspring and he quietly disappears. Great chapter... Please Sir may I have more?

Notice how they know the bloodlines of their victims? That's kinda sick. "I'm consuming so and so's son." The term ick springs to mind.
Gee, she must've forgotten to ask how Cam was doing...
Great explanation of some of the power of the weeping stones. It appeals to the trekkie in me. It sounds like a warp siganture.... It also sounds like Sersei is going to be owing more flavors. Hmmm...whatever could she use as currency??? If she winds up with no Oliver, will it cost her something painful...I hope so.
I have to wonder, is Frosty's interest in the situation more about testing Sersei than about finding Samantha's son? It seems unlikely that she's that interested in Oliver.
This is fascinating Duggernaut. Thanks for a cool chapter.
