The symmetry in this chapter was pretty cool! It reflected both the traits that our two main couples share and the things that separate them from each other.

I'm going to talk about both foot scenes together, as I took the same core message away from both scenes but in slightly different ways. Much like that scene at the end of the previous chapter, I really enjoyed the purity of both of these scenes. Neither one of them was simply a "I like feet. They are hot," kind of scene. Instead, you really cut to the core as to what the appeal of smelly feet is, as well as the significance of this to both leading giant ladies.

And I'm saying this as someone who isn't into smelly feet, so I thought it was kind of cool to feel like I gained a deeper understanding of what this is all about.

In that opening scene, I absolutely adored how into that little tradition both Trevor and Donnica are. It was so fucking cute! But it's Donnica's embracing of this that I want to focus on here. Why does the mere thought of Trevor worshipping her smelly feet, especially when she's gone out of her way to make them as stinky as possible, get her so excited?

I think that goes back to why she fell in love with Trevor in the first place. As I've mentioned before, he has seen the worst of her, but not only does he accept her, he loves her anyway. I think this foot worshipping is the ultimate extension of that. I mean, we're told straight up that Donnica has been embarrassed by the smell of her feet up until meeting Trevor. That means, more likely than not, some of those previous boyfriends (and we know what kind of assholes those guys were) probably made her self-conscious and maybe even a little self-loathing about it.

But Trevor, he isn't just okay with her feet, this part of her body that she had been ashamed of for so long; no, he wants to be near them. He fucking needs it! He lusts after those feet. So the part of Donnica that everyone runs away from, Trevor runs toward, not because he has to or just to make her happy, but because he wants to. Could there be a better metaphor for love and acceptance from a partner than that?

We see this same principle at work in the foot scene between Amber and Rebecca as well, only the connection is even more clearly stated here. Hell, if I'm remembering right (I'm too lazy to scroll up!), I'm pretty sure the word acceptance is used outright when Amber is watching Rebecca go work on her toes. And it's also directly stated in this scene that absolutely everybody, even that foot freak Trevor (What up, Trev?), didn't want to be around her feet. So Rebecca, the one who once hated them the most, now craving them fills Amber with a joy she's never felt before, which is actually kind of sad in a way, since that happiness is based on someone truly accepting and loving her for who she is, warts and all.

The reverse is true in both of those scenes as well. Trevor is so in love with Donnica that even her smelly feet are super hot to him, and because of this, he loves how she dominates him so easily with just her feet. And Rebecca not only finds Amber's feet attractive because of that shift in her body's chemistry but also because she sees how happy it makes Amber to have her licking her toes and enjoying her feet. In other words, for our giantesses, their feet being worshipped is the ultimate expression of being loved, and for our tinies, it's the ultimate expression of their love. I think those general concepts are at the heart of what drives those who have a foot fetish.

That or maybe they just like the shape of it?

Anyway, Donnica pretty much her whole have of the chapter melting my heart! Playful, sweet Donnica is my favorite Donnica! And fuck if she wasn't as sweet and playful as we've ever seen before! Given how much we've seen the menacing, all-powerful façade that she puts up to protect herself from the harshness of the world around her, it's always great to see her step away from that and show this side of herself with Trevor. That, more than anything, shows how much she loves and trusts him.

I thought it was pretty intriguing when she took a second to take in everything around her and just enjoy the fact that she owned it all, including Trevor. This seems to feed even more into the idea that Donnica had to struggle for some time to earn everything she has now. To me, it makes sense that having to work so hard for everything and sacrifice so much (maybe even a personal relationship with her own daughter) to get to this point that she would be so possessive and only see things through that materialistic lens.

One thing that caught my attention was that there seems to be trouble at the firm. Tighter budgets? Fewer cases? Inter-office drama? What could be causing all that, I wonder. Maybe getting rid of all the tiny employees was a bad idea, and the firm is struggling to recover? Perhaps they never filled those spots? Maybe John Turner wasn't as useless as Donnica thought he was? Or could it be that some of the employees at the firm are actually pro-tiny rights and hate what Donnica is trying to do? Perhaps some of those people quit as well? Or it could have nothing to do with any of that. I don't know, it just seems interesting (and relevant) to me that this came up here, albeit briefly and quietly.

Of course, maybe this was just a way to further tease the coming drama with Trevor starting work at Donnica's office. Which, yeah, like Trevor, I too have a hard time seeing that go well, but maybe those struggles will bring Donnica and Trevor together. You know, assuming one of her employees doesn't squish him first.

I also feel vindicated! I knew Donnica would catch on to Trevor being miserable after having that job taken from him and that this would eat away at her, even when it seems like she has everything she wants on the surface. What happened in the second segment is just about how I envisioned it playing out on her end. She even noted (to herself, not to Trevor, which maybe would have been helpful) that the real reason she's so against him working outside her home is because of how dangerous the world is for  a tiny like him and her desire to have him with her always, to love and protect him. And to have him up her butt at work, most likely.

Again, that façade can get in the way and send the wrong message about her true motivations, even to herself. She was so wrapped up in her beliefs and her anger that she literally took glee in tanking that job for Trevor. That's something that office Donnica would do. But real Donnica, after seeing what this did to her little man, is now devastated, and she hates what she did to him, even if she still doesn't want him taking a job like that. It's both disheartening and interesting to see Donnica get in her own way like that from time to time.

And the guilt that she felt after accidentally saying the word "job" was so heartbreaking. Yeah, she did this to herself, but I still feel for her here. She's legitimately remorseful, and that makes all the difference for me.

Trevor snapped a lot quicker than I thought he would, although, to be fair, this chapter does note that several weeks have passed since the got back from the island. It's interesting that it was Donnica being vulnerable that finally did it, but I get it. Donnica is a pretty selfish person (again, I think this goes back to how she got to where she is now, so I understand that, too), so I can understand how always being the one to concede the point or put Donnica's feelings before his own would be frustrating, especially when she hasn't really done that for him (honestly, I'm not sure if she even knows how to do that).

I think it was very telling that Trevor could kind of lose his shit like that and talk to her in a way that not even a fellow giant would dare to and her reaction was one of desperation rather than rage. She truly does want him to be happy, and that takes priority over even her need to dominate and be respected. Whatever it is that drives Donnica to be the controlling, monstrous woman we've all come to know and love, Trevor is more important to her.

This thing inside Trevor is pretty interesting. He submits to women, only to want to break away from them, huh? I actually think Donnica can be attracted to that side of him sometimes, too. Part of her loves it when he stands up to her when no one else would, like in that scene when he insisted on getting a new house. So she wants to do away with this part of him because she wants him to be hers, but she's also kind of into him telling her no sometimes. Or are these two different things and I've misunderstood?

Trevor coming to work with Donnica is a good compromise. Of course, it's inevitable that the girls in the office aren't going to go easy on him, likely taking advantage of him when Donnica isn't looking. Annabel has already been put in her place once about Trevor (off screen I believe, but it was noted), so I'm interested to see if she behaves around him or if that only makes her want to fuck with him more.

Also, I keep going back to those office troubles. Donnica being at the helm at this tumultuous time could encourage somebody beneath her to strategize a coup of their own. I mean, when there's blood in the water, the sharks come out. I wonder if there are any inch-tall vulnerable spots that might suddenly pop up at the office ...

Seeing Amber and Rebecca in a casual, less intense setting from the last time we saw them was really fun. It also cements the status of their relationship: The whole master/slave thing is just a framing of their relationship rather than what's really going on between them.

I thought the start of their segment was a perfect example of this. Rebecca was doing Amber's nails not because she was told or expected to; Amber didn't even think to ask Rebecca. Rebecca just happened to know how to solve a problem for her (because, again, these two have so much in common, which makes them such a great couple!) and it brought her legit happiness to do that for her. Rebecca wanted to serve, not because she's a slave (she's not actually a slave) but because she adores Amber and wants to help her.

Honestly, at this point, I don't think Amber is even capable of forcing Rebecca to do something. That whole thing where Amber found out Rebecca likes her feet because she teased Rebecca with them to "test Rebecca's limits"? Yeah, that's not a thought that goes through a master's head when deciding how to treat a slave. The mock orders were pretty cute, too, but again, this was something meant to be fun for of them, not real servitude. If Rebecca really did hate Amber's feet, she'd never make her lick them. Not now.

I also think saving the master/slave talk for sexy fun time puts their relationship into perspective. While Amber loves to dominate and Rebecca loves to serve, that master/slave stuff is for the bedroom, the ultimate expression of their love for one another. But it isn't for their relationship beyond that. Amber actually really respects Rebecca, and Rebecca wants to guide Amber, help her avoid some of those mistakes she made when she was younger herself. There are also times in this segment where Rebecca takes control of the conversation, and that's definitely not slave behavior. Rebecca loves to serve, but she needs to be herself, too, and Amber wouldn't have it any other way. She fell in love with Rebecca, not the things that she can make Rebecca do, after all.

I really, really loved Rebecca standing up for Trevor here, even when he's not in the room. He's really important to her, and now that Amber is actually listening to her, she's doing everything she can to get Amber to lay off him, which is great! And how serious she got about it was truly sweet, too. She cares about him to the point where she doesn't want to hear him be disparaged, even when he's not around.

This part made me think about Amber's relationship with Trevor, though. I kind of had this thought last chapter, too, when Amber was talking about being abused. Both of the abusers she mentioned were people dating her mom, and I think that's part of the reason she went so hard on Trevor from the get go. Yeah, he's an adult that she could dominate, but also, in her mind perhaps, he represents those fucking monsters that did those things to her, only this time she has the upper hand because of his size.

Of course, over time, I think at least part of her has realized that Trevor isn't like that, hence that big compromise she made with him when he demanded that she not stick Rebecca up her ass anymore. But those feelings about dudes her mom dates still linger, and that's why we see the conflict between how she talks about and occasionally still treats Trevor and how she reacts in moments like that time where Naomi almost killed him. She was seriously worried about him there.

I think between Rebecca defending him so fiercely and him helping Rebecca out when nobody else would, Amber might finally be able to get over that hump and actually get along with him and let herself respect him (which, again, I feel like part of her really wants to). That could be especially true now that Amber knows how some people treat the unregistered.

So yeah, that dude that choked and threw Rebecca down the stares is a piece of shit, and, if I'm being completely honest, I'm not going to lose any sleep if he ends up getting squished. My real concern with that ominous ending is what might happen to Amber after that.

But, on the other hand, and I'm completely speculating here, this could be a real chance for Amber and Trevor to bond. I mean, Amber isn't going to know who this dude is on her own, and Rebecca isn't going to point him out because she knows what Amber will do if she does. So I could see her going to Trevor about this. I'm curious if he knows that story about the stares and how he feels about it if he does. And if he doesn't, will his reaction be similar to Amber's? Would he want to go beat the dude to within an inch of his life? Or would he help Amber cover her tracks after she took care of it?

Again, these question might be moot. He could be too busy with the new job at Donnica's firm to be involved in any of that. But suddenly I'm really eager to see Trevor and Amber bond (in a platonic, familial way), and I kind of hope something like that comes of this.

But backtracking slightly, seeing how devastated Amber was to hear Rebecca's story was bittersweet. It broke my heart to see that poor girl in that state, but to know the depths of how much she cares about Rebecca was really moving. And when she tried to order Rebecca to not talk to her like that because "You're mine!" with that hint of vulnerability behind that anger? She went back to that master/save dynamic to try to cope with what happened to Rebecca.

It also wasn't lost on me that, after all this time, we now find out that it was because of Donnica and the policies lobbied by her firm that Rebecca lost her registration. Amber apologizing for it was pretty sad, and I'm glad Rebecca caught herself and made sure Amber knew that Rebecca didn't blame her.

Oh, and Ladybug is the cutest nickname for a tiny that I've every heard! I fucking love it!

Fantastic as always; damn, the nylons games part was so hot. It could be fun if she played this game, but with Tiny, who hates feet. 

Other than that, the development of the relationship between the two couples is so perfect. I really enjoy the fact you show the weak side of the giantess; it's really enjoyable to have a more human part. 

And the way we keep building this world is so great. I feel like I said the same thing every chapter, but you always make them better.

Also your answer to my question about donnica not knowing about Rebecca was not ominous at all and I am totally sure everything will be fine when she does find out about her.

So, first off its nice to see Trevor and Donnica having some actual discussion, and maybe some actual positive movement. Though only time will tell if its truly positive. I get both of them. Also well done, you have actually gotten me to care at least some what about Trevor. He can think with more than just his dick. I am impressed. Though if I were him, I would have definently put in some stipulations. I mean he knows how Donnica sees tiny people, it seems reasonable that her coworkers are probably pretty similar in their own views of tinies. And he wont have the protection of love of Donicca to protect him when she is inevitably not around. So yea, dude please get some protections for yourself.  But I give him props for actually sticking up for himself against Donnica. Also I give Donnica props for actually being willing to work with Trevor. She still wants to poses him, but she is at least willing to acknowledge his wants.  Still if this was a real world thing, I would tell Trevor to RUN. 

     So now I come to my favorite dysfunctional couple, Amber and her tiny Rebecca. This chapter answered a worry I had from the precious wonderful chapter. That worry is that Rebecca would be consumed by Amber. That in giving in to her feelings and love and desire of Amber, that she would cease to be the feisty little Rebecca that could still put Amber in her place. While she is far more loving and willing to be Ambers actual servant, she can still challenge Amber, and Amber is actually willing to reciprocate. They are defiantly in the honey moon portion of their relationship. Though I really am rooting for them to go the distance. Though I do wonder what Amber and Rebecca will do if Amber ever does find a partner.  

     That ending does raise some trepidation for those that have seemingly wronged Rebecca though. We have seen that Amber is willing to get physical in protecting Rebecca and that was against a peer, I do not think I would want to be that guy when Amber comes a calling. Also really dude grab her by the neck and push her down the stairs. WOW, I kind a of want Amber to get ahold of you.

     So I really enjoyed this chapter. Interested to see what happens next. 

So have you read by chance how to break in your pet. If you have not, I would highly recommend it. The reason I ask is casue both Donnica and Amber read like much nicer and more loving versions of teh four main antagonists of that story. Fair warning it is very long, and the updates are rare. But The author has vowed to finish it.
