I thought you'd left us. Another great chapter! I hope he doesn't miss the opportunity to be under his mom's feet though!

Thanks! Lol I am just in the process of moving house soon, and work has been crazy busy, so I haven't gotten to write as regularly.

This chapter was probably the hottest and saddest for me.
I mean I knew that brett was fucking over the other students for his own gains but the way ada worded it really hit hard.
Coupled with the bits of Brett's past with unknowingly manipulating and belittling Ada really hit hard especially when Brett resorted to humor when he lost credibility really shined a light on other bits of Bretts character for me.
AAAAAnd on top of Nancy my god I'm having a hard time believing she cares about Brett with all the abuse she's been sending his way, I get that she wants to teach him a lesson but it makes me wonder what would happen if Brett got seriously hurt. Like, fuck me man I get that sometimes you need to give some tough love but maybe cool your jets a bit Nancy.
Overall this chapter kind of opened my eyes to how much Brett isn't an adult yet, no matter how much he might think otherwise or even if he is one year off of 18.
On a side note, Lee-Reilly both simultaneously turns me on and terrifies me beyond belief and I can't help but feel that she is the big bad and the end of the story and I pray that she doesn't get her way.
some of this was me just venting frustrations sorry bout that. Overall 10/10

Thanks for the feedback. I am really glad that you enjoyed that bit because it was personal for me. Our protagonist Brett is not blameless, he has hurt other people before, very often without knowing it. But he's not really unlike other teenagers in that regard. Ada is someone he took for granted, in a sense, and didn't realize how he was affecting her. They are all growing at this age.
Nancy would do well to realize that same lesson- that her son is still growing and she is affecting him for the worse in ways she doesn't understand; he no longer responds to one-dimensional, heavy-handed moralizing as he maybe did when he was younger.

I'm not a foot fan like him, but I do miss FTFeet's writing.
That being said, the principal promised one 24h "creative" detention for every day he's late, and Nancy promised she was going to make his day with her much worse than any threat by Lee Reilly, so I can't wait to see what else she has in store! That it all started 15 seconds after waking up definitely sets the tone for it...
Kudos to Ayla for pointing out that he's screwed if any teacher fails to certify - I'm waiting to see if that happens, or if there's any delay for any reason.
Btw, maybe I'm forgetting something - what's the problem with the principal finding another volunteer?
Author's Response:
Not all of those worst-case scenarios will be explored in this story, FYI - but may be done so in spin-offs.
The problem is that Lee-Reilly has been forbidden by her bosses from doing any more shrinkee recruiting. This was an attempt by school district administrators to limit damage in case the program fails and they are accused of rushing out sloppy unsafe shrinking programs, but permitting them to take credit if this program succeeded against the odds. You may assume that after the initial call for volunteers that there were some angry calls from parents about the entire program, and some whispers from the state capitol about whether this is actually legal under existing precedent. It all comes down to politics, and the school district is afraid both of retribution from state-level officials and by potentially litigious parents. The fact that Brett volunteered as the son of an employee of the school (Nancy) and the brother of another employee (Don) gives them extra leverage over him, so Lee-Reilly was not explicitly told to discontinue her work with him - that's why she has pinned all her hopes on him and tried to use coercion to get the certifications done.

Good lord, without a doubt my favorite chapter thus far and I'm already sure next chapter will be even better! Love all the details here, especially to how Nancy seems to be creating a long list of people for Brett to "help" in case he isn't desuaded after today. I'm eager to see how far Brett is pushed, after all, she seems intent on breaking his desire on being a full-time shrinkee once and for all now. Here's hoping he is up for the task, even if it seems sisyphean in nature. Hope you are doing well too!

Thanks for the kind words! I'm doing very well, hope the same for you!

Nancy.....*sighs*.....still think she's being a bitch, I just struggle to like her with her freaking attitude.
Brett certainly went through a marathon.....(he he) of feet in this chapter. I knew Amber was going to be trouble!!
She has a seemingly giant sized ego even without needing any shrinkees around, 'the amazing amber'.....seriously.
But Feet wise, Brett had a lot of different soles and toes he got to taste, and seemingly will taste, so feet and kink wise, some nice choices.
The mouth scene was ok too, and I love that Loren is still checking in. ( I still ship her and Brett so hard!)
I am excited to see Mr's Gu's sister. Yuan seems like she'll be a treat, a dominant asian woman with some powerful feet (smelly and rough and athletic, combined with her attitude, ooh that is going to be a good one) Combine that with the language barrier, that is a tantalizing tease you've left us with.
