Oof, that first day must have been such a disappointment for Sofia. Poor Miguel.



Author's Response:

Why do you say that about Sofia? The fact that Liam called her a roommate? Or that she couldn't exercise justice in her first day as an agent? Anyway, karma is starting to catch up with Sofia. And Miguel is gonna get the help he needs soon!

It must have been a majestic sight when Sofia took a picture of the Lilliputian Lakes, and the little ones were watching her. The dynamic between the pair in this chapter is wonderful, Sofia is so cruel.



Author's Response:

You're so right! I really need to describe more scenes to and from Lilliputian Lakes. Would be a wild to see one of the giantesses inside the city ... huh? ;)

Amazing chapter, really showed just how crazy Sofia is becoming. 
Shes basically the personification of "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned" 



Author's Response:

I like Sofia a lot, despite her flaws. Maybe because she reminds me of my wife so much, haha.

Okay, I'll say this; you're always one of the rare ones to convince me with couples stuff ever since a long time ago and still do to this day, damn lol.


Another awesome chapter!

Wow! There's a lot of depth to this chapter. So much going on!

I found it interesting how casual Tricia was when talking about the downsizers she has eaten. I don't think this, or demanding to taste Kamila, was a taunt by Tricia; she thinks Kamila understands that she's safe with the giantess, and also, as I mentioned above, Tricia doesn't really have anybody to talk to about what's truly on her mind. So Kamila gets to hear those thoughts, while Tricia dismisses the downsizer's concerns until they begin to eat at her.

I think that's what led to Tricia putting Kamila in that jar. To Tricia, putting Kamila in her mouth was no big deal; she even offered the tiny a sweet dessert afterward! Seeing how genuinely terrified Kamila was bothered her, and anger is the only outlet Tricia knows. That's why Tricia gradually worked her way up to making the issue about downsizers being spoiled. She used her prejudice to mask her hurt.

And when Kamila asked to go home, that rejection was too much for Tricia in that moment. That's why Kamila ended up in the jar, and that's why Tricia said that she thought Kamila was different. I don't even think she meant different from other downsizers; I think she meant different from all the people who have "rejected" her in her life, even if some of those, like Steve and Mateo, never actually did so. In Tricia's mind, them downsizing was a rejection.

Despite that harshness, Tricia's wordless apology was really sweet. Then when she said, "Don't be mad at me" my heart melted despite everything. As terrible as Tricia has been, I find myself feeling so bad for her. I also love that Tricia is learning Polish for Kamila, and that she understood Kamila's "Fucking hell" and only countered it with a "Don't be afraid" and a playful wiggle of her fingers was a really nice moment, one of the few times Tricia didn't let her anger get the better of her, which I think is significant in terms of how Tricia feels about Kamila.

But we see the real tragedy of Tricia's character in her last segment ending the chapter.

First, we see her infuriated over her jealousy of Beth and Mateo. Rather than being upset simply at them being a mixed-sized couple, however, her jealousy causes her to imagine what things would be like if she had stayed with Mateo after downsizing. This shows her cards and was pretty eye-opening for me. She wants what Beth and Mateo have.

Her first thought in imagining sticking with Mateo wasn't about how good he'd feel in her pussy or tormenting him for having the audacity to downsize when she didn't want him to, but it was about enjoying a heartfelt lunch with him. She thought about introducing him to her dad and how much he would enjoy her company.

Tricia clearly wants a real, loving mix-sized relationship.

But she won't admit that to herself. The way she was raised and the sizist opinions of her clique won't allow her to truly entertain the idea. And if you think about it, Tricia really has nobody as close to her as Beth is to Mateo in her life, so all of this pressure and societal brainwashing has cost her a chance at true happiness and left her miserable, much to the Steve's detriment.

Lin unwittingly offered her a loophole, though. Hearing Lin's explanation of her "relationship" with Brian opened up the possibility of such a relationship to Tricia. I don't think Tricia totally bought into Lin's belief that Beth was using Mateo the same way that Lin was using Brian, as Tricia paid attention to the couple and saw how happy the both were, but what Lin told her lined up with Tricia's beliefs more.

And that leads us to poor Kamila and that heartbreaking ending to the chapter. That first half of Tricia's conversation with the downsized nurse, to me, was her giving one last ditch effort to see if a real mix-sized relationship was possible. I think her soft, almost nervous approach was a clear sign of that. And while I know there was no way Kamila could say yes to that (and I'm certainly not victim-blaming here), but I can't help but wonder how this would have played out if the Polish woman would have agreed to be Tricia's girlfriend right away.

Would Tricia have still been so forceful in shoving Kamila inside her? Would Tricia have not raped her at all? Maybe they would have ended up snuggling instead, with Tricia trying to work Kamila up to the point of consent. Or perhaps things would have turned out exactly the same. It's really tough to say for sure.

That being said, I do Tricia would have handled things differently in that case. Because I feel like that flash of anger that she suppressed was her hope for that relationship that she wanted, the one matching Beth and Mateo's, died in that moment. Rather than listening to Kamila and understanding that, like most of Tricia's other problems, this was an issue of her own making, Tricia instead decided that Lin was right and that using a downsizer as a sex slave is the only way a mix-sized relationship can work. And we saw the results that came with her reaching that conclusion.

The worst part of all this, at least in my view, is that Tricia really does care deeply for Kamila. From preparing that lovely bath for Kamila as a silent apology for sticking her in that jar to Tricia wanting to rush home and comfort Kamila after hearing her story to trying to learn Polish to how nervous then angry Tricia got when asking Kamila out (in a roundabout way), it's clear that Tricia's feelings for Kamila run deep. But now she thinks that this is the only way forward for them and has fully embraced it. I could also see this turning out like Tricia's vore habit, with her doing it because of Lin's influence but becoming addicted to it of her own accord.

The real test for Tricia is how she feels about Kamila going forward (no, I haven't jumped off that redemption train for Tricia yet!). Kamila is likely going to start acting differently now, as it looks like this has traumatized her. Will Tricia notice this (I think she will), and, if so, will she feel regret/try to change the way she treats Kamila (this one I'm not so sure on, but I think we've seen some evidence to suspect that she might)?

I found the Sofia and Miguel stuff in this chapter pretty interesting as well.

As much as I hope Miguel's moving speech at the end of that segment gets through to Sofia, I'm not so sure that it will. It seemed like Sofia understood that she had taken things too far and started to take him seriously when he started that story (another one of those signs I keep blabbering about, I think), and I feel like Miguel's words will carry weight with her. The problem is that they don't address his cheating (obviously, neither of them know that it actually wasn't his fault) at all. I feel like having Sofia recall such a powerful memory might cause her to contrast it with what her husband "did" and make her even more upset, making her feel more justified to stay on the course she has currently set.

Again, I'd love it if this woke Sofia up, but I just don't see it. Of course, when Sofia inevitably learns about pheromones and what they do to downsizers, I could see her looking back on this conversation and Miguel's words hitting her differently.

As for the divorce, I'm curious to see how this plays out. Every time I read Sofia, I feel more and more confident that she's going to have that moment of realization and finally understand the gravity of everything that she's done. Because she really doesn't right now. Hell, it was noted in this chapter that she still doesn't understand the proper way to handle downsizers, let alone the psychological issues that come with being tiny in a giant world, something I believe is covered in that training that she still hasn't received yet. Just how temporary is that permit, anyway?

The big question in my mind now, however, is how Sofia will react once she makes that realization I mentioned above. Personally, I think she'll regret the way she treated the men in her life, even if she still strongly believes in her reasoning that led to that treatment (i.e. she'll still think she was right to try to separate Mateo from other humans but feel like shit once she realizes how much her "spankings" actually hurt him and how grueling the beads punishment really was for him, if that makes sense). She could go the other way, though, and bury her head in the sand. She could refuse to let Miguel leave her yet try to treat him nicer in an effort to win him back (it might be neat to see her try this and how far she gets before she finds herself going back to how she was before).

I could speculate on what's going to happen next here all day, but I've probably done too much of that already, so I'll just move on.

I love that Liam, even in the middle of getting pleasured by Sofia, still tried to make sure Miguel was cool with him fucking Sofia not once but twice! He's such a good dude, and I feel a little bad that I suspected him of shady shit in some of the earlier chapters. Yeah, he could stand to be a little less oblivious, but I can't fault him for assuming the best in people.

I feel bad for Luna. Sofia finally found a way to get to her, and Sofia might not even fully understand what that way is. Yes, Luna is sad that she's being cast aside as Sofia takes Liam on alone (I have a feeling Liam is going to be more vocal about getting Luna involved going forward, which will make it interesting to see how Sofia reacts to that), but there's more bothering her than that. Luna feels terrible that Sofia hates her. It turns out the worst thing Sofia could do to get revenge on Luna was just be honest about her feelings about the downsized girl. I found it adorable that Luna cared that much about Sofia's opinion of her and that Luna blames herself for how Sofia views her (I mean, she's not wrong, either).

I don't know if we'll ever get there, but I'm pulling for a nice, healthy four-way relationship to come out of this eventually. Liam is already starting to be that voice that Miguel used to be to rein Sofia's hot feelings in, and both Luna and Liam want to fuck everybody. And despite everything, I think Sofia and Luna still love each other. Oddly enough, I think the biggest obstacle to this outcome isn't the Latino couple's rocky marriage but Miguel's aversion to Liam's cock!

I could just be pipe-dreaming it, but I've always been a happy endings guy, and this seems like the best outcome to me!

I also love that, throughout this dark, dramatic chapter, you managed to sneak in a little bit of Mateo and Beth goodness. I really appreciated that!

My heart melted when Haze hugged Beth. Beth finally has friends! I like how she tried to play it off, but we got to see just how moving this was for her.

Also, I love Hazel! She didn't do much in the chapter, but I just wanted to get that out there.

Lastly, that "I'm gonna wear my socks even harder" line got me! I loved the banter between Mateo and Beth there as a whole, but that line was so fucking funny! Emma going around stealing the bigs' food was a hilarious visual as well!

Thanks for another great chapter! See you at the next one!

First of all - super compelling story, it really sucked me in, especially Mateo & Beth's arc. On the face of it, a lot of things in this should really switch me off e.g. M/f, vore, extreme cruelty, watersports, overbearing parent(s) etc, but I found myself overlooking these due to the excellent job you've done making the world feel real, and getting me invested in what happens to the nicer characters.

Taking the bones of the insanely disappointing 'Downsizing' and tweaking its world to make it a lot more macro-centric works really well - there are a LOT of horror elements here but they are regularly offset with wholesome moments that land that bit harder because of the cruelty and dysfunction elsewhere. You've mentioned your passion for cruel narratives, and it shows, but know that there are hesitant gentle folk like myself who cling to the little threads of loveliness within this tale quite fervently now.

My main observation from the story so far is that a huge many of the key authority figures are selfish or broken in some fundamental way, whereas the younger characters (bar Tricia and Lin) are infinitely more well-adjusted and compassionate. Sofia is a harrowing example of this - she began as a well-meaning, if overprotective maternal figure... by Ch. 16 she's turned into a power-addicted adultress desperate to twist her loved ones to suit her own ends. Liam's job involves sexually abusing and eating criminal downsizers, Principal Sullivan blackmails and belittles downsized students and parents alike.. even Miguel openly expresses how he'd kill anyone Sofia touched if only he wasn't a 2-inch-tall cuckold. 

By contrast, the core friend group of Hazel, Emma, Jack, Mateo and eventually Beth isn't exactly lovey-dovey, but they're all emotionally articulate, smart, clean, fundamentally decent people. Beth in particular is presented as this incredibly desirable tsundere with a heart of gold - she's super fanservicey, sure, but boy does it make for an unmatchable high when she reveals herself to be Mateo's perfect giant girl and he her perfect tiny boy. Hazel and Emma are understanding and fun, and even though Jack is under-utilised he's a nice foil and fall-guy.

The most complex character by far is Tricia, who in many ways is the twisted mirror image of Beth - starting off as Mateo's perfect girlfriend but rapidly outing herself as a cruel and tormented soul capable of truly horrid acts, whose deeper motivations are a mystery even to herself. Her love-hate relationship with her tormented father, and subsequently Kamila, paired with her mood swings and her jealousy and rage at downsizing make her a pitiable villain with a palpable, albeit fragile, pathway to redemption that could easily disintegrate if she panders to her more selfish desires.

I suspect this story will get a lot darker before (or even if) it gets lighter - with Mateo and Beth tracking down Kamila's whereabouts, Tricia scheming plans to make Mateo hers, and Sofia emasculating Miguel out of perverse vengeance, there's a lot still to unfold and I'm really looking forward to reading it - mostly through my fingers, very occasionally with a warm feeling in my heart.




Author's Response:

Your review means a great deal to me. I can’t believe with all the unlikeable kinks, besides the theme and cruelty, that you still read it. I’m still astounded that you read it with all the landmines strewn about the chapters. When I say I appreciate your comment, I really, really mean it.

Yes, this is a fetish story. Yes, I’m indulging in my kinks and fantasies. But honestly, I was shooting for a gritty and realistic “what-if” scenario if downsizing was real. With the help of my wife and life experiences, I crafted each character and just let them run amok in the story.

I love your observation of Sofia. You’re 100% right that she went from an overbearing mother to a power-addicted adulteress. I couldn’t have said it better myself. And then, yes, the Principal, Liam … they all have their flaws and I won’t defend them. They are who they are.

I found what you said about the core group of friends being more emotionally stable than the adults. Wow! That’s right! I didn’t think about that—I’m being genuine here. I never realized they were more mature than the older people in the story. Funny how that worked. I wasn’t trying to serve the fanbase with them. Honestly, I just create the characters and situations, and let them have at it. I wish Jack had more airtime, but I really don’t have the bandwidth with all these characters, haha.

You mentioned Tricia as being the most complex character. Did you know I was super close to not having Tricia in the story? She was like an afterthought. Man, I’m glad I changed my mind about her, because she’s currently my favorite character in this story. She’s that ‘coming-to-age’ person, still learning about life and still figuring out who she is. Her past and present shaped her into who she currently is. And probably some undiagnosed mental stuff. As you said about her path of redemption, I think Tricia needs that nudge or to meet someone that could set her right. I’m really rooting for her.

Will this story get darker before it gets brighter? Maybe. But in a more accurate way, yes. What’s the saying? It’s always darkest before it gets brighter? Or something. I have hope for Sofia and Tricia.

Again, thank you, thank you for sticking to this story. Thank you for all the comments on discord and here. It means a lot to me that you’re reading this story. And I think you’ll like the payoff in the later chapters!

@ jfgts2022 Jesus Christ I would hatif they became Tricia's slaves,if anything I hope Tricia shrinks and gets placed in Beth's custody.

Because I know despite everything Beth probably won't kill her so it would make a Very  interesting dyanmic(Especially if what she does to Camila and her dad get's uncovered) 

Beth would hate her very being but wouldn't kill or even maim or torture her but could still hold her life in her hands and excercise control over every facet of her pathetic worthless life. 

Beth would be in the position to excercise her contorl over Tricia, being the better person that holds dominion over her entire little existance,while fighting the urge not the snuff it out like a tiny glimmering flame on a candle...

Man I would read the shit out of that.

I'm really disapointed with Tricia man, after learning that she had a shrunken dad that she actually took care of, it allowed us to see a  different side of her, one that was capable of compassion, the person she could be under different circumstances, 

Unfourtanetely, she has negative influences in the forms of her friends that make sizest beliefs spread like a tumour,

however discovering that she had a shrunken dad and how troubled she is, I was hoping for a Zuko tier character redemptiona arc where she cuts out the toxic influences and becomes that good person that it is buried deep inside of her.

However, after swallowing and killing all those people she's can never turn back. 

That hope I had  is gone, now my only wish is that Camila and her dad are rescued and that somehow she is shrunken so that she may suffer similarly to those she has mistreated.

That being said I would think it would intresting if she was remanded to the care of someone who wouldn't tortue her (at least not exclusvely,and with some rules and dicipline about it)but moreso control her very life,so that she can feel helpless and a lack agency similarly to how she makes Camila feel,



Author's Response:

It's true that she's killed those people and there's no way to bring them back. But Tricia can change and be a force for good -- if she chooses that path. I don't think it's too late for Tricia. Things will get dark and a lot worse, but there's still hope for her. Don't give up on her!

You're right that her friends and mom are a bad influence and like a tumor that are clouding her judgement. If only she got away from that shit, and learned to be the person she truly is. Remember those sincere moments with Kamila? That's the kind of person Tricia could be.

Thank you for your comment and reading!

10/10 - this story, particularly this chapter, is the GOAT. Bravo. Excellent writing coupled with a story arc seemingly tailored to my highly specific fantasies. I long for the launch of each chapter. Please don’t stop!

Also, if you have a minute, could you briefly describe Tricia? You’ve alluded to the fact that she is a knockout, but a bit more color would remove the pixelation her face unfortunately adorns in my imagination. No pressure if not.

Thanks for this amazing tale!



Author's Response:

Awesome! Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm curious, what's your highly specific fantasy? This story pretty much mixes all my favorite kinks and my wife has been enjoying everything between Sofia and Miguel.

So ... Tricia ... I purposefully haven't explained what she looks like, because I don't know what she looks like, haha. On my Discord, I have a channel where people suggest how'd they cast the characters in my story. Some suggest the part of Tricia be cast as either Jenna Ortega or Chloe Bennet. I think both are great. But yeah, I didn't detail her looks, so that the reader can imagine whatever they want.

Date: September 10 2024 2:17 AM Title: Detention and a Date

Despite Carol sneaking in at the end of the last chapter, I figured the date was happening in this one. So I had some pretty high expectations going into it.

And you completely and totally smashed them!

Before I get too deep into all that, though, I wanted to call attention to something really small that you did that I think really set the tone for most of the chapter. That little line about Mateo pulling down Beth's finger when they were walking back to the apartment was the epitome of what makes gentle great, I think. Not only was the fact that she let him control her finger for his comfort and sense of security a really, really sweet moment but that this was following up him acknowledging that those fingers could crush him with almost no effort just one paragraph back was brilliantly done. Those two paragraphs conveyed the power she has over Mateo and that she cared about him so much as to relinquish that power and control to him when he needs her to (yeah, need is a strong word in this example, but metaphorically, I think it fits). 

That little moment, to me at least, helped frame everything that came after and made it all feel that much more special.

And holy fuck was pretty much all of that special! There were so many great moments between Beth and Mateo from the moment they reached the apartment to that last line of the chapter.

That moment she made Mateo come in her whey by teasing him about eating him? Fuck! That was incredible, so hot and she didn't even touch him! Also, I love that line about her not realizing that she could like him even more, as I felt like she hinted at being into vore, too, way back in chapter one when she taunted Emma about ending up in her stomach, I believe. It almost felt like a nice little callback to that.

We've been building to the date for quite some time now, and the payoff for it was spectacular. From the moment Beth's earthshaking steps brought her in front of Mateo to see her in her "little" black dress and heels to that emotional conversation at the restaurant, everything felt just right. Seeing Beth be vulnerable around Mateo, showing how self-conscious she actually is when everybody stares at her, judging her, was a nice moment. She doesn't just like and love Mateo, but she truly trusts him, and that's huge!

I knew there was some trouble at home for Beth (I've been calling it since chapter one or two), but damn, being abandoned by her irresponsible parents who just wanted to downsize and avoid being her mom and dad was a kind of fucked up I wasn't expecting. That Beth was willing to downsize with them surprised me a little bit, given how much she loves the feeling of being big, but it makes sense given that she wanted to be with her parents. It's a miracle that she came out of that still loving downsizers! But yeah, this certainly fits that sense of loneliness she always has and helps explain why Mateo paying attention to her drew her to him in the first place, even if she wasn't the best at expressing herself at the time.

I do wonder if Beth will get to confront her parents at some point in this story. I could see this just being a thing that has affected her and not being a plot point that's revisited, but part of me hopes she gets that closure before the story ends.

Also Mateo was such a good boyfriend her. He knew just what to say (because it was the truth!), and he made her feel like she truly wasn't alone for the first time in a long time. The biggest person in her world, indeed!

Also, I kind of glossed over it, but I love that it looks like you're moving forward with the unregistered downsized shelter idea. There's a lot of potential with that idea ...

And then there's the fucking! Good lord, did it really take me this long to get to the fucking?! (Not the first time I've said that!) Everything about this was perfect! Reminding us that this has been Beth's exact fantasy since he first offered to do her homework (not exactly what you said, but close enough and probably also true!) for her helped highlight how big a moment this was for her. You also captured Mateo's timidness at this being his first time having sex at any size wonderfully.

Mateo deciding to ignore Beth in the same way he had ignored most of the downsizer rules and go "too deep" inside her like that? God damn! Also, him using her clit as a sort of joystick for her was a nice visual. I just picture him testing it by putting pressure on different spots and watching her reactions. It's as hilarious as it is intoxicating to picture.

That mouthplay scene was (fuck, I'm already running out of adjectives) ... hot as fuck! Yeah, that works. It was hot as fuck! The way she teases him about eating him is absolutely perfect (yeah, I used it again, so what?). She intimidates him enough for his fear instincts to kick in but he trusts her enough to know that he's safe on a conscious level. That's really tricky to balance, but you did it well with the whey (after Beth found out about his new kink), and you did so even better here at the end. And the rest of that scene, from the way she tossed Mateo in to the laundry drier simile to the climax itself, was phenomenal (there we go, found another one!).

But you hit on a couple of things in that sex scene beyond the sex itself that I loved. First, the way Beth stopped and asked for consent despite being so into it that she literally ripped her dress off (poor dress, it was so pretty in my head!) was great! It shows how much she respects and values Mateo, as did her determination to get him to make decisions for himself throughout the sex itself.

Which leads me to the other thing that really stood out to me here: Mateo's trauma. You had a nice moment with the whey were you brought it up fairly blatantly, with him being afraid of being punished by Beth for getting off in her whey, much like how Sofia would punish him for lesser shit. I liked that you called attention to his experience with Sofia there. It as a nice reminder of what he had to go through to get to the paradise he's in now.

But I thought it was much more subtle and clever to have Mateo be so indecisive and focused on what Beth wants rather than his own desires at times. That's how Sofia was with him regarding everything, so it makes sense that he would struggle with some decision-making for some time after that nightmare. And again, I love how Beth gently pushed him to make those decisions anyway. She was patient and wanted to make him happy just as much he did for her.

Backtracking quite a bit, Tricia's segment was small but meaningful. I suspected that it was Tricia's mom who had done that to Steve's leg and that Tricia had found him after her mom had left him for dead somewhere. To read that Tricia did that to him herself was incredibly sad. I also don't fully blame her for this.

I think trusting a 14-year-old (she amputated his leg at 15, a year after finding and keeping him, right?) with the kind of power a human has over a downsizer, especially without any of the safeguards in place, is extremely dangerous. It sounds like Tricia had anger issues before all this, so of course a young, immature girl is going to flip out at some point and hurt her tiny father. That she was so nice to him for months afterwards shows how shitty she felt about the whole thing.

And I've said it before, but between the way she was raised (most likely by her mom) to think about downsizers and having Steve right there at her disposal, it only makes sense that she torments him the way she does. She gets so frustrated so easily, and it's easy to blame Steve for her problems. If only he hadn't downsized, right? Of course, if she wasn't raised to think of downsizers as pests and mom were more accepting (I know I'm speculating a lot here, but this seems to be what's being hinted at), they could all be happy together without any of this shit. But Tricia is trapped in this cycle because of the hate that was passed down to her and all the difficulties in her life because her dad is a downsizer in a household that hates downsizers. It's really, really sad.

And Kamila sees none of that because how could she? I completely understand where she's coming from in her thinking on Tricia, but I'm glad that Tricia still treats her well. Even after that shitty day at school, she still thought to bring Kamila her coffee and wasn't a jerk about giving it to her, either. That has to count for something, right? RIGHT?

Oh, and hearing Steve explain that Tricia's bad moods became more frequent after she broke up with Mateo sure was interesting. She really did/does care about our main character. But again, her social programming won't let her acknowledge it. I speculated back in chapter two that the way she ditched Mateo didn't necessarily mean that she didn't care about him anymore. Maybe she was too mad at the situation to stick around. Or maybe she left in tears. We don't really know, because we didn't see it. We were just left to guess that she didn't care about him and abandoned him when he needed her most. It's kind of nice to see that this wasn't exactly the case and that something more complex was going on in her heart.

Finally, those Principal Sullivan segments were awesome! The way she sat back and basked in Mateo's begging fits how I pictured her personality perfectly, as did the way she put those downsized parents in their place! But I was a little surprised to see Carol take Mateo's feelings into consideration a little bit here. I get that she didn't just do what she planned because he "killed the mood," but that she went through the trouble of finding a way to have her fun without Mateo feeling like a cheater was a more considerate than I had given her credit for. Maybe I judged her character a little too harshly before (she was always super hot, though!).

I mean, she could have easily just put him in the detention box after she decided not to put him in her tits. And that she called him her favorite downsizer wasn't insignificant, I would think.

I already mentioned the downsized parents stuff was great, especially that part where she walked up to them when they were halfway up the ladders. Holy fuck! They were 40 feet up and only at her knees? What a power move by her. Also, you're use of the word "splatter" here got me both times, especially the second time. That she barely thought to look and make sure she didn't splatter those downsizers under her heels? Jesus fuck!

I do still wonder if there will come a time when Mateo's parents will want to have a chat with the good principal. I'd love to see her face when she tells her secretary to send them in, ready to put them in their place, only for a full-sized Sofia to stomp in super pissed about something. And if she's a DPS agent at that point? Oh man, that could be fun.

Then again, maybe Mateo will keep being her favorite and it won't come to that. Who knows?

So, summing all those words above up, this chapter was pretty okay, I guess.

Aww, you liked the finger blanket scene? I was so happy when I wrote that! That blend of comfort and strength with Beth’s mere finger was so fun to visualize. I’m stoked that you picked up on what I was trying to convey. Her hand has the power to end him with little effort, but she allowed her little love to pull on her finger and use it as a seatbelt, was such an endearing mental image for me.

The vore thing. In my mind, vore isn’t something Beth yearns for or even thought about. Like, it’s more of a tease … something you’d see in cartoons and movies, and never think about it real life. Her teasing Emma and then Mateo was just harmless fun. But you can see in this chapter, the gears are turning in her head. I don’t know if she’s made the connection between vore and power, but she can obviously see Mateo enjoying it, so she’ll lean into it. I’m glad you found that exchange between Beth and Mateo hot, haha.

As for Beth and her parents. I her appeal to downsizers and her enjoy being big came after her parents abandoned her. She wants to take care of tiny people, the way she wants her parents to take care of her. That void her parents left manifested in this obsession with downsizers. It’s tragic really.

Thanks for all the kudos on the smut! Haha. I won’t get into details, but I’m ecstatic that you said it was ‘perfect’ because I was nervous writing it. I wanted to show how excited Beth was to have her way with Mateo, while also making sure he was cool with sex. Also, it was funny to imagine Beth storming into her apartment like a tornado, causing all this destruction because she was eager to have sex with her two-inch boyfriend, haha.

I love Tricia and Kamila’s arc so much. Yes, Trish was responsible for her father’s injury because of her anger. And it looks like she hasn’t really learned from that.

Principal Sullivan! Yes, I loved writing that part about the parents being so high up, and only being halfway up the length of her legs. Really illustrates the size difference!

Thanks again ‘It Was Me’ for your in-depth review. I hope I hit all your major points!

Love Mateo's relationship with both Beth and Sofia. It seems like both those women have come close to downsizing, and since they remained human, really value their size.

Intrigued by the Tricia story and interested in how the 3 storylines will intersect.

Quality writing with frequent updates for a good story? You're in the trifecta - keep it up!



Author's Response:

Thank you, thank you for your comment and review! I try my best, and this beast of a story has been challenging, but fun to write. I'm so happy to hear others are enjoying it!

Yeah, the three arcs will eventually intersect. I love the drama that's going on between everyone, and how everyone interacts with downsizers differently.

Again, thanks for the kind words. I hope you enjoy what I got set for the future!

just when I thought you're already going all out with Beth and Mateo, you did it again! Love the intense last part. Hell, even the little Tricia moment is such a nice tease for what's next, I could only wonder what's gonna happen.

Damn, you read that fast, haha! Thank you for your review!

Thank you for writing this chapter! It was such a nice interaction with Beth.

But at the end, it seemed like Beth simply wasn’t big and strong enough to protect Mateo. Principal Sullivan still isn’t phased by Beth and thinks she can do as she pleases.



Author's Response:

You'll see in the next chapter. Beth and Mateo don't want to piss off the Principal, unless they want her to ruin their lives.
