Finished the available chapters and i have to say that this story definitely has my favorite cast of characters on this site I absolutely love Hilda’s family despite how dysfunctional they are.
Rose seemingly being cold to those around her but actually not meaning to do so is cute. Funny seeing riley say she thinks they’re trash while actually knowing how she feels. I hope she makes some friends here despite the situation.

Amazing story so far. Hope you continue this! Your works actually inspired me to try and write a story myself

How in the hell is Elliot still a virgin if he doesn't want to be? In the first story most MAJORS were wildly horny, aggressive, and desperate for a chance at a bond. Regardless of how awkward he is, he shouldn't have any problem getting laid.

New chapters of this are always worth the wait.
I'm rooting for Hilda and Elliot to go the distance and make their relationship stick, but I think Hilda is going to have to rip that band-aid off sooner rather than later if she wants to keep this going, or risk having Elliot drift away from her. He has the perception that she doesn't see him as a serious relationship candidate, despite how hard she was trying in this chapter to get a moment with him to explain the situation. Him seeing Basil attempt to move on her twice now isn't helping her cause, neither is Riley and Minnie being around him more often and in his ear to steer him toward thinking that way, since they disapprove of her. She's (understandably) trying to be discreet around Basil, worried that her jealous and petty MAJOR ex-husband that still hasn't gotten over her, will attack her defenseless new minor boyfriend, but Basil will find out anyway, as will everyone else eventually, if she keeps seeing Elliot. She probably wouldn't be too concerned about what the rest of her family thinks, because she would just tell them to "deal with it" if they didn't approve. Perhaps mama Rose will help her prevent Basil from fucking around with Elliot, but that means Rose will have to approve their relationship, which isn't guaranteed. And that can backfire if it alarms Rose enough to keep her son from being around Hilda and her family, out of concern for his safety. I don't think Elliot's father would object too much to the relationship, and more likely be amused and impressed that his mild mannered minor son managed to attract a woman like Hilda.
That leaves the other major obstacle in Hilda's path, Riley. I wouldn't be surprised if those two end up fighting again before the end of the story, to settle what they stared in that alleyway. Riley still clearly has a grudge against Hilda for taking advantage of her friend, and Hilda will get tired of her standing in the way from speaking to Elliot. They are both MAJORS, and Riley is shown to be the type to settle things with her fists. Hilda would accept her challenge to prove that she is serious about Elliot and that she can protect him. Minnie needs some come uppance though. Riley gives her too much leeway in giving Elliot undeserved shit, which makes her read like a grumpy bully that is unpleasant to be around. Hilda probably would have smacked her by now for insulting her man too much, or Rose for insulting her son.
It's a tricky situation, and by the end of this Hilda may decide to let Elliot go to spare him from dealing with her family drama, or Elliot may decide to break it off on his own not wanting to deal with that, but I don't think that's what either of them really wants as of now. Hilda in particular would probably come to regret losing Elliot. It was her that went out of her way to peruse a relationship with him after all. Considering that she is a wealthily, and still very attractive MAJOR woman, who was previously used to having potential suitors come to her, I doubt she would be putting in all this work to get Elliot if she really wasn't that interested in him. If she just wanted him as a minor plaything, she could have a rotation of those at her beck and call if she really wanted to, for much less effort.

Well, this is different. I haven't read all of the MAJOR/minor stories but enough to get the feel of them and I have to say, this is different -- surprises every chapter. I can't wait for more.
At first, I was thinking Moonie and Elliot were going to get together but the more I read the more I'm pulling for Hilda and Elliot. A nineteen and and ninety nine year old: sho'd a thunk it?
Anyway, keep up the good work and thanks.

“In a few years it will be very easy for the both of you to take advantage of your mother and brother. I hope by then you’ll both learn enough to know how to practice restraint.”
Says Hilda, who first introduced herself to her now minor boyfriend by technically raping him awake when she noticed him in her bed. Even if Elliot wanted to, she had to have known there was no way he could actually stop her from doing what she wanted with him. Wonder if someone will call her out on that (like Riley) in the next chapter, which would an already interesting clash of characters it's sounding like it will be, even more interesting.

Nice chapter things are getting even more interesting and do enjoy that Rose is so huge and is trying her best to be a better mom (hope she does and they get closer)
Cant wait for the next chapter since expecting big mama Rose to meet the neighbors.
Date: March 13 2022 8:24 PM Title: Chapter 8: SIZE/disparity
Ok this a bit random but I ship Rose and Celina I feel like Rose would put her ego in place and can dominate Celina(Or maybe i'm wrong it was never specified exactly how tall she is)
Date: January 31 2022 9:53 PM Title: Chapter 8: SIZE/disparity
It's comforting to see the vulnerabilities in Rose's monologue. Without it I fear I'd likely be afraid of her in the context of how she'd alter Elliots life with a stony demeanor. I enjoy the 'walking on eggshells' type of dialogue from Rose and Charles.
I'm excited for the meeting between Hilda and Elliots family, as well as what sounds like a property? Perhaps for Rose and Charles to be closer to their son, or perhaps for their son himself? Either way, I'm happy to see another chapter.
The interaction between Moonie and the Major children is entertaining and sad. They really are behaving like demons, and without the bond I'd get them kicked out. If they're like this to Moonie, how are they to their minor mother?
Again, thanks for writing this NotSirk.
Date: January 31 2022 4:31 PM Title: Chapter 8: SIZE/disparity
Stellar chapter. I feel bad for Rose. magnolia ? Magnolia Rose ? The big giantess, Elliot's mom. I hope that at some point, she'll be able to break and armor and really show her son how much she loves him and she wouldn't trade him for the world. Hopefully it wouldn't necessitate him being in danger, it'd be great for Mom to do so in a more subdued way (perhaps sharing an evening watching something Elliot wants to see and opening up at that moment?).
Can't wait to read more.
Also, is Hilda the only decent member of her family ?
Date: January 31 2022 8:40 AM Title: Chapter 8: SIZE/disparity
Interesting twist with Rose's personality. This does explain though why she puts so much trust and responsibility on Riley. With how confident and outgoing Riley is, acting as a genuine friend giving Elliot all the independence and freedom he needs, I would've figured someone as seemly domineering as Rose would simply hire a special assistant to chaperone Elliot everywhere and keep anyone Rose hasn't meet and approved of at arms length from him while making Elliot walk whatever path Rose would pick for him. It's unfortunate that Rose has already highlighted what the problems are preventing what connect her with Elliot but has yet to address them. She's terrified of her own strength and how fragile he is to the point she wouldn't even pick him up and comfort him when he fell off a swing as a young toddler. So Elliot probably grew up with few and far between hugs and comforting interactions with his mom and now whenever she does interact with him it feels stiff and frigid. And worst of all, she's never tried to turn off her biggest of the big Cyclopean personality and demeanor. It seems like she only ever acts in two moods, intentionally intimidating or un-intentionally intimidating. Just about every other sentence she said to Elliot left him flinching and her internally grimacing because it came across as disappointed, threatening, or demanding. It's a shame that by her own admission "she was beyond caring too much if she intimidated other MAJORS by this point in her life" because it's all Elliot ever sees in her and only helps build up his fear and hesitation around her. Her intruding on his mind without asking and saying he couldn't keep secrets from her is probably the biggest offense for me, even though in her mind she thought she was being a responsible parent but at least she noticed her intrusion left him trembling and felt some guilt.
I'm waiting to see who in Hilda's family is going to be the one to screw up and piss off the secretly over-protective Cyclopean. Basil's a strong contender since with his temper he might lash out and severely hurt Elliot even if Rose is there by attacking before she notices the danger. 2nd contender for a bully hurting Elliot is probably Richie Jr. I have a feeling the halfsie is a bit bitter about being one and will be more then happy to taunt and pick on a minor, managing to goad Elliot into hitting him only for him to hit back harder. Finally Richie, Lionel, Lionel's wife, the twins, or most importantly Moonie are likely to run their mouths and say something Elliot and Hilda wanted to keep a secret from Rose because they know it'll send her into a rage. Like how Hilda technically raped him on their first meeting. Hilda might catch Rose's ire before even someone like Basil in that case. I was actually wondering if a minor side character shows up in the story because of how convinced Hilda is about Basil eventually showing up unannounced to get violent about her seeing Elliot. I figured eventually a Cyclopean who works as the security director for her company/plantations would be brought in. Now with how big Rose is, maybe the security director brings in a younger guy or girl in their family whose part of this younger generation of even bigger Cyclopeans. Someone as big or within that last foot of height to Rose. Because if Rose snatches him away and refuses to let him see Hilda, she's going to need someone at the door who can turn Rose away if Elliot runs back to Hilda. If the hint about a property is Elliot's parents buying a house near Elliot's college so that he can live under Rose's roof again, they'll probably be in the same neighborhood as the Maldera's since Rose needs to buy the biggest of renovated mansions to accommodate her.
I'm also really curious to see what happens with the bonding developments. I'm a bit shaky about the nature of bonding. I remember in Izzy's story some Major's belong to a tier that allows them to completely overwhelm a minor's mind even if they are trying to guard it. But now apparently some minors like Moonie are learning how to be the one's overwhelming MAJORs. I think there was something about how in the distant past minors had much stronger bonding power. That old MAJOR from Alejandro's story made a comment about how MAJORs had to nearly wipe out minors because of something to do with their bond powers. Moonie brought it up in her little pool ceremony and had fawning MAJORs around her desperate for her to bond them to hint about it. And behind the scenes she just did something to upstage her bullying niece. Then there's Minnie whose not a halfsie but still a rather short MAJOR and seems to be on the cusp of awakening the ability to be the first MAJORs who can bond with MAJORs in the series. I'm curious what the nature of Rose's bonding with Elliot was like when he was a kid. I'm wondering if she somehow managed to mess even that up by injecting her own fears and trepidation over him. Because if it was the only time she could calm his nerves and let him feel her love and concern for him, I'd imagine they would keep doing it over the years and she'd bond with him now to calm him down. I'm wondering if Moonie would ever be arrogant enough to try a forceful control bonding on Rose because a very threatening response as she plucked the little girl up if it failed and Moonie's terrified face would be hilarious to see.
Is Elliot not only Rose's only son, but her only child? From her initial cold and authoritative introduction and the line that Elliot is Rose's only son in CH 7, I started wondering why a gigantic and wealthy Cyclopean wouldn't have more kids. I started thinking what if the reason Elliot's an only child is because of how embarrassed Rose was for her first child to be a minor. Also possibly what if after she learned her first child was a minor and angrily went to a doctor for how she could possibly have such an insignificant child, she would learn an unfortunate truth like she had a rare genetic mutation where every child she had would always be a minor? If she ended up being a demanding perfectionist Cyclopean, it would explain why she'd be cold and distant from Elliot. He'd be a disappointment she'd have to live with and she'd never have a proper MAJOR/Cyclopean child that could live up to her standards. Now that it's revealed she is actually loving and concerned for Elliot, just unable to express it, I'm wondering if why she hasn't had more children might still be similar in a way. Terrified not because she's worried of the shame of having a 2nd minor child, but from the terror of having another fragile and vulnerable. For poor Elliot, she only knows how to try and buy his affection rather then interact with him to earn it. When she hesitantly asks her husband if she's failing as a parent, probably the only self-doubt she ever openly expresses as a Cyclopean, I'm wondering if it's an indicator she fears having another minor child and failing all over again.
Date: January 29 2022 3:53 PM Title: Chapter 7: Mother's Duty
Oh, are Cyclopean MAJORs starting to pop up that have surpassed Shannon Matthewson and some of her kids? She was the biggest Cyclopean yet during her younger adulthood and I think three or so of her kids passed her up with the tallest daughter being something like 23.5 ft tall
Author's Response:
It's been awhile in the timeline since MAJOR/minor. I feel like Kurogane set the precedent for this by making some of Shannon's children even taller than she was, but even with that said Rose is a pretty rare being and the fact that Elliot is a minor might be nature putting a cap on how big a MAJOR can really get. At least if you were asking me anyway.
Date: January 29 2022 9:24 AM Title: Chapter 7: Mother's Duty
Bloody hell !
Rose's almost twice as tall as Shannon... TWICE !? That's a CYCLO among CYCLOS XD
Greta to have one more chapter of this story by the way ^^
Author's Response:
Thank you! Rose is pretty tall but I also think CYCLOS may appear taller than they seem in this regard.
Date: January 29 2022 7:15 AM Title: Chapter 7: Mother's Duty
I was wondering if the Cyclos were even canon so I'm glad they are lol. She seems less doting than Remy's mom and a Lil more cold and manipulative. So far anyway. I'm assuming she's manipulative cause she's used to using her size to impose on her others and Elliot is her only son making her more protective. Also, by Elliot meekly answering his own mother I'm assuming she's probably not around him much. Maybe she's a model and her husband is her manager?
Author's Response:
You've made some pretty good observations here. Elliot and Magnolia have a very drastic size disparity, the largest we've ever seen. I wonder how that effects the parent and child relationship?
Date: January 29 2022 4:22 AM Title: Chapter 7: Mother's Duty
Wow, a Cyclopean mother, I didn't expect that Rileys' relationship with Elliot was caused because he had a domineering mother.
Author's Response:
One could say Riley was handpicked to be Elliot's friend. Whether that is accurate or not is up for debate, but one could say it!
Date: January 28 2022 10:54 PM Title: Chapter 7: Mother's Duty
God damn, I was wondering where the CYCLOS went, fuck me man she seems so god damn imposing I love it. I can't wait to see how she interacts with the rest of the cast.
Date: December 09 2021 3:21 AM Title: Chapter 6: Fleeting Connections
I'm so invested in this latest development.
Date: December 09 2021 2:23 AM Title: Chapter 6: Fleeting Connections
Oh man, so many new plot developments so much foreshadowing who knows what's going to happen next. Stop trying to humanize Minnie, I don't want to feel bad for her or empathize with her, I want to hate her and you made it a smidge difficult to do that now. Another wonderful chapter five stars 10/10 will recommend to friends and family.
Date: December 08 2021 9:53 AM Title: Chapter 5: Developing Tension
Great story so far. What makes the romance stuff so interesting is that Hilda is so far beyond Elliot's league physically, financially, socially, etc., and yet Hilda herself gives zero fucks about all that because she's totally smitten with him! Of course we'll find out if this leads to a lasting happy relationship, or if she gets bored of him eventually and they move on. I would bet on the former from what we know about her. She's been with plenty of brawny, wealthy, MAJOR guys of status and power, comparable to her, including her ex-husband, and they all eventually left her bitter and unsatisfied. She seems to be so attracted to Elliot precisely because of how not all of those things he is.
Elliot meanwhile, is struggling with feelings of perceived inadequacy and emasculation. He has an inferiority complex (though, I image all minors would have one to certain degrees compared to their larger peers, since they actually are inferior). As bitchy as Minnie was, she clearly just trying to get under his skin, and it was fairly easy for her to do so from exploiting this about him. Perhaps he'll realize that ultimately, people like him, and his sexy new giantess girlfriend adores him, just from being himself, and not this take charge, stereotypical alpha male someone put in his head he had to be like in order for people to take him seriously.

See you when we see you, thanks for the chapter.
