Wow, wasn't expecting Felarya or those elf empire stories to be referenced.  Anyway, this story is more fun that I thought it would be.  Valeria is adorable in her own way and Candy's fate seems to have worked out nicely.  Eleanor was scary at first but she's quite the sweet mom isn't she?



Author's Response:

Glad you liked it, it was a rather silly tale but I had fun writing it. I thought it would be funny for Hotep to threaten to toss them into a darker giantess story, I've actually referenced the evil elves stories a few times, can't trust those knife ears!

I just imagine how Brendan could service her at a smaller size. Small domme is such an underrated scenario.



Author's Response:

I don't know a ton of stories like that, I'll have to try one one of these days

The professor who wanted to get big ends up enjoying being small. Awesome twist. No tiny Valeria tho.



Author's Response:

I just like Valeria as always being the bigger one lol, the one in charge of things.

Alex suggested to switch sizes with Candy on a weekly basis, Stain and West are having fun seeing the other side of things. If Alex feeds Brendan I wonder if she and Candy could have fun exploring the big world at tiny size together... That should be fun.



Author's Response: When exactly Brendan will become a vampire is up in the air, it might be tomorrow or it might be decades, but when he does Alex would probably be one of his (and Valeria's) first choices. Candy probably doesn't want to be big too often given she's wanted by the law, but she would probably want a few days now and then to go enjoy the world outside Alex's room.

More a fan of reversal type of situations when small and cute girl shrinks someone so that they are smaller and cuter than her rather than some tall and strong bully gets more power. Is there any chance that girl bullied them not phisically but by some other means like popularity? Also, what kind of therapy? Medical or psychological one? Could the girl be a psychiatrist?



Author's Response: The idea I've got is that it's medical, like shrinking heals your body in the story and the couple needs a lengthy slow shrinking treatment.

Have you thought about writing an Isekai hero story parody?

I RPed with a guy recently about a guy Isekai'ed to another world as a "toy hero"  with "toy hero system" that let's him easily get played with. The main skill "toy's stature" ofcourse reduces his size.  I just noticed that you watched anime and wrote fantasy world stuff and I have never seen this type of plot so... I figured I'd ask. If you want I can give some notes for inspiration.



Author's Response:

I haven't really considered an Isekai type story, though Welcome to Hell started with a parody of one lol. I actually am already planning out my next long story so I'm going to be busy with that one when Familiar is over. My next story is going to be about a couple who have to undergo shrinking therapy for medical reasons, and the person applying the shrinking is none other than the girl who used to bully them in high school. It's going to be a little more serious than some of my other ones, like think a couple slowly getting shrunk by someone they don't 100% trust, constantly wondering if she's shrinking them more because it's necessary or because she just thinks it's fun, etc.

Here to say Brandon is coming along nicely and there are a lot of pros about being a vampire though as for hetap I think it funny that she still angry about getting beat up by the goddess of death as for hetap traveling to other earths is hetap like the doctor that travel to different timelines but instead to different dimensions.



Author's Response:

Hotep is basically a gender flipped giantess themed version of HP Lovecraft's character Nyarlathotep, like the namesake she's an extremely powerful being who is the messenger and main servant of the Outer Gods, so moving between worlds is a fairly easy thing for her to do. Also like her namesake she holds grudges, and yeah she's still pissed about the events of Welcome to Hell, but obviously there's not a lot she can do to get back that them at this point.

Is the last chapter planned for Halloween?



Author's Response:

My intent is to finish the story before or on Halloween, so the last chapter might come before then but either way we will go into November with this one having completed.

The world with Hell and Heaven is rarely populated by ghosts and undead. Maybe Hotep can traverse to another universe?



Author's Response:

Yeah multiple dimensions is very much a lovecraft thing so I figured she could, Hell as it is in Welcome to Hell isn't around in this one.

Idk about mixing this world with 'Welcome to Hell' one. It just has a different vibe for me. That was a divine-hell theme and this is some kind of Halloween one. 



Author's Response:

I figured the only one from there we'd see is Hotep, we already know what happens when you die in Welcome to Hell lol

Just realized that the crawling chaos is Nyarlathotep is that the same hetap lady from welcome to hell as a reference if so does that mean we get to see our favorite succubus Cydea in this series to🤔



Author's Response:

Yes it's going to be the very same Miss Hotep, not sure we'll see Cydea running around though

Ah, I was wondering when the long-term implications of being a vampire’s servant were going to come up. Very curious about this Crawling Chaos. I hope while Brendan is taking some time away from Valeria, he might become a bit more familiar with Eleanor’s feet. Maybe she could give him more perspective on the vampire/familiar relationship. Can’t wait for more! 



Author's Response:

Eleanor will have some other words of wisdom for Brendan before the end, among other things lol.

“Brendan,” Valeria said, looking up and meeting his yellow eyes with hers, “do you… love me?”

This feels like it might be a reference to the recent vampire anime where new vampires are created when a vampire feeds on someone who loves them. With vampires being rather static and resistant to change this normally resulting in enduring or possibly even permanent loyalty of the spawn to their sire.

Regardless it will be interesting to see if the gang can recover the book before her mom gets there, and if not what her reaction to that little issue might be.



Author's Response:

I am unfamiliar with any such anime so rather than a reference we might call it a happy coincidence. Anyways Brendan hasn't realized what the endgame of this all might be, although I think you probably have lol. As for Valeria's mother, well finding out that your daughter has lost a powerful magical artifact to a pair of buffoons is unlikely to be received well

Top 5 things I'm eager to see in the future:

1. Tiny Valeria.

2. Candy refusing to get to her previous life.

3. Confused Horward not knowing what to do when he's the bigger one.

4. Ghost doing tricks on Candy.

5. Candy getting into NEET culture and becoming friends with Alex



Author's Response:

Can't promise everything here will happen but some of it will

Hope for Alex-Candy bond where Alex gives Candy some thrill or whatever she lives for and Candy doesn't want to leave her Creepy NEET girl's pet life.



Author's Response: We'll see a little more of Candy's fate as the story goes, she's kind of put herself in deep shit obviously, luckily Alex is, if a gross NEET girl, not particularly cruel.

Cool. Dan can fight Candy as some Chips controling superhero by using storm of chips as a weapon. 

And if she doesn't want to wear cosplay costumes, just tickle her until she agrees. 

Still waiting for Valeria getting tiny after some exhausting fight. Tiny Lupe is not that interesting interesting, same with doctors, unless they are given to Howard. Will he get his revenge? I don't have any Idea of what Howard will do if he's the big one. Will they just ask him to shrink, with him simply following the command? That sounds unrealistic but for Howard? Who knows.



Author's Response:

Like most of my stories there's a big fight coming towards the end, that might be the one that makes Valeria tiny if anything does. As for the Doctors and Howard, I could imagine him getting some lighthearted revenge but for all of his complaining he still keeps hanging out with them doesn't he?

The story is starting to get tense! I'd love if in the future one of the times Brendan shrinks he gets smaller then normal and Val decides to mess with him by having him get trapped in her thong.



Author's Response:

Glad you're enjoying it so far! I'll definitely see what I can do for you on the thong lol

I mean Valeria did say she intended Brendan to be her eternal slave, most normal humans would croak after eighty to ninety years so he can't stay one forever if she intends to keep him that long.

Looking forward to this epic struggle between the forces of darkness over the book stolen by some random scientists who haven't the faintest clue what they've taken and insist on fucking around with it anyway.



Author's Response:

Indeed, there were many things Brendan has agreed to with Valeria that maybe he didn't quite understand. That said Valeria is hardly the worst person to be bound to for eternity, we will see some of her mom later in the story though...

Gotta say I cracked up when I read your apt description of our scientists. They're basically gender flipped versions of Herbert West from Reanimator and Victor Frankenstein from Frankenstein, neither of whom knew when to quit when dealing with supernatural forces they didn't understand. Both of them ended up paying a pretty high price for it in the end of their respective tales.

I imagine some 2500 year old philosopher who discovered the round earth and was killed because noone belived him. Now he tries to keep up to date with everything and help outstanding people with new inventions by haunting their dreams and giving hints. He helped with electricity, relativity theory, first computer, first phone, Internet, etc.


He even haunted a guy into making a gaming platform so that he could gather energy with Halloween game events and make new ghosts out of gamers. He also helped in creating Discord to have a special communication server for his fellow ghosts. He also likes playing chess pretending to be highest difficulty AI.


Something like this would be world class, they have enough influence to start world event. Like strong Warewolf pack leaders and vampire progenitors. Valeria is a class below. Not sure about her parents.



Author's Response:

Such a ghost would be on the level of a world class vampire, but I don't see Valeria getting to angry about ghost-boy unless she's worried he's going to start hurting people or something, overall I think she'd be happy to have him in her corner given all the other messed up stuff going on in this town haha
