In this world, one in five people will shrink.
A genetic disruption that strikes without warning between the ages of one and twenty-one, compressing a human body over three to five weeks to a terminal height of two to ten inches. There is no cure, no reversal, only the after.
Society has adapted, there are heated bus stops at ankle height, adaptive housing companies, tiny furniture and tinier phones. There are laws, fines for accidental crushing, registries, county caseworkers with clipboards and pamphlets featuring sunrises.
There are also shot glasses with people inside them, stores that sell them by the inch. A world that has built infrastructure for the small and cruelty for the small in equal measure, and that sees no contradiction between the two.
Liam Banister is twenty-seven years oldm he is shy, kind, and shorter than he'd like to be, as well he is in love with Agnes, a literature PhD student who is brilliant, possessive, and tender in ways she'd never admit. They've been together four years, sharing everything, from a bed, to meals, as well for a silence, the practiced silence of a man who knows what his girlfriend does with shrunken people and has chosen, every day, for four years, not to look.
But what happens when the person you love becomes the size of the things you consumes?
Whole and Alive is a story about love at a different scale. About the distance between care and control, between holding someone and caging them, between the world as it is and the world as it should be. It is explicit, unflinching, and tender in the places you least expect. It is about two people who were the same height when they fell in love and who will never be the same height again, and the question of whether the love survives the measurement.
Content note: This work contains graphic sexual content, extreme size-difference dynamics, vore, casual cruelty toward shrunken people, and depictions of a society that has normalized violence against a vulnerable population.
