Liking this so-far. Are you planning on returning soon?

“Is it because I’m overwhelming?”

This is an incredible line of dialogue. Without any description of her tone or inflection, I can almost literally hear the playful brattiness with which it's being delivered. It's a confidence bordering on condescension but with an inviting love at the same time. It's hard to describe exactly what I hear in my mind as I read that line, but I can absolutely hear it!

And while Quinn's actions immediately after saying this fall in line with that tone in my head, I feel like they're more an affirmation than something necessary to understand the intention of her words. Those words just jumped off the page as I read them, hence two whole paragraphs of me harping on them!

You also did an amazing job of having the reader feel Bailey's new size. In particular, the way you described how Quinn's torso was like a table for him (and the sensual yet casual way she shifted him around up there a couple paragraphs later) and how he felt like he was a schoolbag for her during the piggyback ride really provided a good mental image of the size difference (and, again, the graphic at the end of the chapter is always nice as well).

I really like how, despite our budding couple just beginning to explore what this new relationship means for them, there was still plenty of that sibling dynamic sprinkled in throughout this chapter. The banter between them, like the way she teases him about being unfit or the back-and-forth about him being jockey-sized, feels like it's between a brother and sister, very different from the way you would expect a new couple to address each other. There's just a familiarity and comfort between them that just isn't there with normal couples.

But then, there are those flirty moments as well, like Quinn asking Bailey if she makes him feel small, only to say that she thinks he's cute. Or the way she breaks down his defenses at the end of the chapter (which, again, incredibly well done!). This stuff is well blended with that sense of familiarity mentioned above, giving the them a unique presence together.

So Bailey's need to take things nice and slow is clearly driven by the lingering doubts he has about the change in his relationship with Quinn. It's obvious from the start of the chapter how desperate he is for her, but, even after letting her know how he feels (well, mostly, but it might take a bit coaxing before Quinn can pry those deep, dark fantasies out of him) I still think he's a little unsure of how to proceed. And I think that the way he got excited over reliving that memory of piggybacking on Quinn's back shows that a part of him still wants to keep things how they were before, or at least is afraid of losing that if things move forward between them.

I know he said midway through the chapter that he had no fear of taking this next, sexual step, but I feel like if you have to tell yourself something like that, then it can't be completely true. Also, almost in the same thought, he notes how he's "on the verge of having a sexual relationship with my stepsister," with that language still conveying, at least in my mind, that this is still a big deal for him. Not to mention that he said that his "walls were getting thinner and thinner" the more time he spent with Quinn, and that she was breaking holes through them. The fact that there were walls and that she was able to make opening in them with her gradually elevated teasing throughout the day makes clear that there was some hold up in the first place.

And I love Quinn's response to that hold up. She backs off, "abiding by your rules." Again, like last chapter, she doesn't come at Bailey too hard with the size-related teasing, although she does pepper some in here and there early on, only to ramp it up when she finally makes her move. Instead, for most of the chapter, she's sweet and uses her much larger body to love on him rather than tease him (even though you can tell she really wants to let all of that sexual mischievousness out). The way she took him into her body when he was struggling in the water is a good example of this.

However, after a while, she decided to chip away at his willpower with a soft, gentle aggression, I think due in equal parts to her own waning willpower and her frustration at the nice and slow approach.

But holy shit, for him not lasting very long, that hand job scene was intense! It was so satisfying to see her break him down and even use his own words, "Nice and slow, right?" against him like that. And, like I said above, the way she laid on this size teasing so thick as she was working him (especially when she realized how close he was) was just perfect. And the implication of what's coming at the end of the chapter ... I just hope Bailey can keep her properly fed.

Not only that, but I enjoyed how you emphasized his perspective of Quinn as she stood up in that last paragraph. I'm not sure how small you plan on the virus making Bailey, but perhaps this was a bit of foreshadowing as well? I know it's not in the size tag for this story, but I, for one, would welcome a pocket-sized Bailey, and I think that Quinn would as well (and maybe even Bailey himself, if those dreams of his are anything to go by)!

Lastly, I love the small payoff from the conversation Quinn and Bailey had in their childhood days back in chapter 1, with his whole hand now actually only being as big as her palm alone. It wasn't a huge thing, but I enjoy little touches like that.

This has been excellent so far! While I know this is a fetish site, but I appreciate stories on here that put a lot of thought into their characters as well, and this one certainly does that.

As someone who usually prefers a shorter, choppier style of writing, I'm actually enjoying those long introspective paragraphs here. Your narrative style is really engaging and takes full advantage of the first person perspective. As a result, I feel like I know a lot about how Bailey's mind works. I think it's easy to get wrapped up in what a character sees or what they may be feeling in a given moment when writing in first person, but it's a lot harder to actually convey said character's inner workings (from any perspective, really). This makes him seem more "real' and relatable, and I appreciate the effort you've put into him.

Quinn's speech at the end of chapter three was just beautiful, and it was full of things that needed to be said at this point of the story while still being loaded with personality at the same time. But while her words were touching, I do think there was one thing she said that wasn't sincere: I think it's pretty clear that she does care that he has SIVID and that she's excited by the thought of Bailey going "the whole way."

I mean, there are the obvious things that she has done to take advantage of her size and dominate him since he came home, but we can see where her brain is at when the first thought she has about him shrinking is him ending up on the bottom of her foot (even if she didn't mean it in an erotic way) or when she suggested that she might have to carry him around in her pocket (not to mention the time she playfully threatened to eat him, even though, admittedly, he wasn't actually anywhere near that small). We know she likes being big and that she loves him being small, so I don't think it's so much of a leap to think that she might be into the prospect of him shrinking.

At the same time, however, I think she's worried about it. Or more particularly, what he'll think of her as he gets smaller. While she enjoys lording her size over him, she obviously cares deeply about him as well, so him fearing her size makes her feel guilty for enjoying it. Of course, I think she also feels guilty for that part of her that wants him smaller, given that this is something that is bothering him for obvious (and some not-so-obvious) reasons. Her research into the condition (probably done out of a mixture of concern and excitement) probably didn't help alleviate this guilt.

But we all process guilt a little differently, and Quinn seems to rely on deflecting as a defense mechanism against those feelings. While she feels bad that Baily is afraid of her and hates her (at least in her mind this is how he feels), she finds a way to get upset at him. Yeah, she pushed him around a bit, but he should know that she wouldn't do anything to hurt him or anything worthy of fearing her, right? And from there, she focused on questioning him about his fear, going so far as to intimidate him slightly (just by getting close to him) and give him the silent treatment. In other words, instead of dwelling on her guilt, she put the onus on him, almost blaming him for being afraid of her. That's a lot easier to do than to deal with the complexity of both wanting and feeling bad about the person she loves shrinking.

And I do think that even at this early stage of the story she loves him in a way that isn't platonic. Chapter one gave off this vibe with Quinn asking Bailey if he wanted her to be his first kiss and pointing out that it "doesn't feel like" he's her brother. Bailey followed that up in the narrative by noting that they were brother and sister and couldn't love each other that way, so he didn't. I think those feelings never went away for Quinn, and that's also part of the reason she enjoys messing with him so much. It's as close as she can come to showing those feelings without crossing that line, which Bailey has been going out of his way not to cross up to this point.

I also think it's telling that his erection over her isn't even something that she seems to be worried about at this point. She's more worried about what he thinks of her than the thought of him perving on her. I think he was right when he thought he saw her start to smile while feeling him up with her thigh. Still, she seems aware that getting hard isn't the same thing as being legitimately attracted to someone, which explains why she's concerned instead of acting smug around him.

But overall, Quinn has felt like Bailey was never going to be a real option for her, so it is what it is. However, with the way this story is going, what it is is about to change dramatically, I think.

Anyway, to wrap up on Quinn, I think it was because she feels like Bailey fears and hates her that she was compelled to "out" him to their parents. She knew he needed someone to lean on, and if it couldn't be her, surely their parents would fill that void. When that didn't ... pan out, she pushed down her guilt and frustration, apologized for what she thought the problem was, and opened up to him a bit in the hope that he would feel like he could do the same with her if he needed to. It just so happens that those words were exactly what he needed to hear in that moment.

As for Bailey's fear of her, oh, if only Quinn knew. While she thinks he just fears her for pushing him around, he's actually struggling to find our where his fear ends and his lust begins. Not only that, but what turns him on about her and what he wants in his relationship with her (even a platonic one) are two very different things. I think all of this is a pretty accurate portrayal of a masochist, and part of his awkwardness around Quinn is him trying to sort out those feelings, as well as his romantic feelings for her (which, given their familial relationship, is a whole other can of worms, of course).

It seems like Quinn coming clean on some of her feelings for him has motivated him to open up to her as well, but not in the way that she might expect (but, as I said above, in a way that I believe she'll like).

I also think having the parents be distant to Quinn and Bailey is a nice way to dance around the taboo line, as between that and them not being biological, it makes them feel somehow less brother-and-sister-like, yet they still are, so people who are into that are still getting it, too.

Speaking of the parents, I thought Helen's reaction to Bailey's unofficial diagnosis was pretty interesting. I think she cares more about him shrinking than she lets on but is ultimately a selfish woman who refuses to change her plans now. Like Quinn, I believe she deflects to deal with the guilt that comes with this decision, in her case by dismissing how serious the situation might be and suggesting that he might be done shrinking altogether just because he's no longer sick (it was made clear that she wasn't really paying too much attention to this stuff, so that's purely a guess on her part). Then, when Bailey gets upset at his dad and her for seeming to not care, that guilt defense kicks into overdrive and she accuses him of being childish instead of acknowledging his feelings or even just letting him go.

His dad telling her to stop shows just how far out of line it was for her to do that, as he's obviously a push over for her generally. He kind of gave off the vibe here, at least to me, that he was just playing off of Helen's reaction up until that point. That mostly neutral "That's no good" seemed like a testing the waters kind of answer to me.

As for the smut, we haven't really gotten into all that as of yet, but I'm loving the teasing and casual dominance Quinn has displayed so far. Now that she's made it known how much she cares for Bailey and we've seen him start to accept that he likes being treated that way (or at least a part of him does), I feel like we're closing in on some fun stuff ahead, and it should have a more personal feel to it given the tremendous job you've done setting things up in these first three chapters.

Oh, and I love the comparison chart at the end of each chapter!

Really enjoying this story so far. I really hope he gets small enough so she has to carry him in her pocket. I like the attention to detail and the descriptions of her body everytime he sees her. I hope she continues to have a caring personality with bailey and is oblivious to his perversions.

Great, I hope to see a growing Milf Mom too, mature giantesses are hot too!

Awesome story!
