"After all the tenseness of the opening portion of this section I am so fucking glad for the most part everyone is back together...there's still whole Becca possibly having deeper feelings for Scarlett and vice versa but we can cross that bridge when we come to it."

Yeah, it was a pretty tense stretch, only for everyone to finally fall back in line with one another. Still, a few truths definitely surfaced that can’t be ignored, so it’ll be interesting to see how they move forward from here!

"I admit Amber's childhood trauma had slipped my mind because Naomi/Anna's were so fresh in it but it was deep to see her lay herself bare for them both and to hopefully begin to grow into a better person for herself and them both."

I think that’s a common reaction… Amber’s so dominant and commanding that it’s easy to forget how damaged she is underneath. Her past really shaped her volatility, and when that emotional armor slips, it adds a raw edge to her character that makes her unpredictable. It’s fun to write and super hot at times!

"If everything gets laid out in the open I could really see those three having a happy, poly relationship and being great leaning/sound boards for each other as they grow through college into the rest of their lives."

Haha, that’s definitely a popular hope! And I agree… it would be nice. But Amber made it clear by the end of this segment that she’s not open to sharing. Still, it’ll be fascinating to see how they rebuild as friends now that they’ve made it through their first real fracture.

"Seems like those three had a fun time in the old town tonight and Anna is officially -officially- back in the fold and seemingly weidling some power in the bedroom as was shown off tonight with her command of both Trevor and Domica."

Fun times indeed! I really enjoyed writing that scene, it’s always satisfying watching Annabel channel that mastery of giant/tiny pleasure into her relationship with Trevor and Donnica. It’s been too long since we saw the three of them together like that; it was definitely overdue.

"1. Trevor getting dunked on about his performance must have been pretty deflating for him, good thing he already suffers from shrinkage."

Haha, that’s just Annabel’s teasing! That’s the push-and-pull they thrive on. And to be fair, Trevor can give as good as he gets.

"2. He bragged about other girls AND MOCKED WOMEN...two of which were the size of skyscrapers before him and did not die. He's living every tinies dream right now it seems."

Yeah, that’s Trevor being Trevor… playful, cocky, testing limits. It’s never really malicious, more him poking the bear because he likes living on that razor’s edge. Brave or stupid, depending on who you ask!

"3. He didn't give up Celine in the Seed Code discussion so I wonder if he is lowkey protecting her from Domica/Anna atm."

Good catch! Could be he didn’t think it was relevant to tell them about her… or maybe he knows his girls too well and figures they wouldn’t react kindly to hearing about another woman who caught his attention. Probably safer to keep that one under wraps ;)

"4. Anna's interest in the Kingdom is a little unnerving given how their society is structured, I mean it takes a lot to make Helena look like the safer option but here we are. Though I would be open to seeing her dealing with Juliette...a battle of dragons."

Now that’s an idea I love: Annabel versus Juliette, Donnica’s right hand against Helena’s. A battle of wills between two apex predators. Who knows, maybe we’ll get to see that play out soon…

"6. Call me crazy buuuuuuuut them discussing finding Trevor a tiny mate/slave really has me thinking now is the time they discover Becca and find her the ideal candidate. I could see them finding her about and possibly taking her to the workshop...and right into Naomi's hands without Amber or Scarlett knowing.
7. I would also not be surprised if they went the aforementioned Celine route with Helena's likely uneasy agreement but if there WAS one person he would fall for outright I think it'd be somebody who not only matches him in sass but outmatches him in his own field."

I see where you’re coming from with Rebecca or Celine, but I don’t think Trevor would ever buy into that scenario… he’s too sharp. If either of those girls suddenly appeared in Donnica and Annabel’s hands, acting cozy, he’d smell manipulation instantly. He’d start asking questions fast, and they’d have some explaining to do!

"If anyone truly buys into this whole Goddess thing it would be Helena, I'm not sure how she would've gotten her fix if the shrinking pandemic never hit but it certainly played right into her Godhood fantasies."

Oh, absolutely. Helena lives for the pageantry of divinity. Donnica’s confidence feels innate, but Helena performs her power… she adores the ceremony, the worship, the entire theater of her role. That’s what makes her so captivating to write.

"Speaking of Trevor I have that sinking feeling HE'S the one Helena and/or Kass might settle on which would open a whole new can of worms. Domica would want a submissive bangmaid for her little guy but him and even Helena would know Kass deserved better plus the chance he -really- falls for her over the biggos and then there's gonna be a storm..."

Trevor, huh? You’re right to sense something there… Kassandra’s shown definite affection toward him. But Helena? She’s another story. I see her as that fiercely protective mother figure who thinks no man is good enough for her ‘daughter’. Especially not Trevor who she views as below contempt! That clash of views could make for some serious fireworks.

"I was so ready for Helena to either kill all three of the tinies offered or at least Estelle once Charity had gotten the ok to end the marriage. I realized they were from The Kingdom via the foot worship ceremony and such but it being Helena and the cruelty shown so far in this tale gave me pause for the chances of Estelle's safety."

I don’t think Helena or Charity would ever crush Estelle. The goddesses actually love their Kingdom subjects… it’s the outsiders who reject submission that they despise. Within the Kingdom, devotion equals belonging, and Helena treasures that loyalty. She’d never destroy one of her worshippers without cause… at least I don’t think!

"For the most part Scarlett handled herself quite well in the Dragons Den especially with the Great Domica herself. I'm not a hundred percent sure how Domica truly felt about it but she hid it well for the sake of stability."

Scarlett really did hold her ground, especially impressive against forces like Donnica and Annabel. I think Donnica, in particular, was focused on making the evening about Amber, which softened her harsher instincts. Still, I’m curious what she really thought of Scarlett’s moral backbone…

"I'm not really stunned she went after Becca, after all she was going to find out what effect Scarlett was having on Amber if it killed her. I fully expected her to actually -take- Becca but that might have lead her down a road she would never be allowed back from."

That’s a great observation you close with… Annabel’s nothing if not calculating. I think she wanted to take Rebecca but knew the fallout would be catastrophic. She’s nothing else if VERY calculating, and she knows when the risk outweighs the reward.

"I also have to say I envy that dinner as it sounds both delicious and awesome."

Haha, right? I was starving writing it! Italian food just has that vivid sensory punch that works so well on the page.

Maybe I should go make some spaghetti…

"I could see Becca imprinting on Scarlett, they are both the same person in respects to how they view the world and people in it. Sure Becca loves Amber as she found her first and has guided her to become a better person but Scarlett legit WAS a kinder person to her kind without needing to be guided by Becca."

Good point! The more Rebecca and Scarlett interact, the clearer it becomes how much they share: compassion, empathy, and a devoted sense of justice. There’s definitely a spark there, and I’m really curious how they’ll navigate that growing attraction between them…

"Again the marriage angle is something I'm shocked hasn't been tackled in stories before hand given how much the power dynamic is always touched upon. I'm just shocked once again that it didn't end with Helena squishing Estelle underfoot or at least Charity doing it."

Yeah, I’ve always loved the arranged-marriage concept in this world… it amplifies the power imbalance perfectly. There’s something so inherently charged about a giantess deciding the fate of a tiny couple, like a goddess arranging her playthings. It really leans into that “girls playing with dolls” energy that defines part of the fetish, and I can’t wait to explore that deeper when we return to the Kingdom.

"The Dinner scene was wonderful as it hit all the notes it needed to, Anna grilling the tiny rights activist while Trevor and oddly enough Domica played peacekeeper. Not sure how Domica would react if Anna BROUGHT Becca to her but that's a whole separate kettle of fish."

Thank you! I was nervous about that scene since there wasn’t much direct size play early on, but I wanted the tension to carry through dialogue and subtext instead. It was a great chance to reveal more of Scarlett’s backstory and give Annabel a mini-investigation moment in the middle of dinner. I’m so glad that landed!

"The Anna -hunting- Becca scene was incredible.
You really felt the terror in Becca's mind/body as the predator came looking for her. I truly expected Anna to take her back to Workshop and feign ignorance at her disappearance but I think terrifying her worked well enough."

Awesome to hear that! That passage went through a ton of rewrites because I really wanted to capture that raw, animal fear from Rebecca’s perspective. I’m thrilled it came across. And yeah, the poor girl was petrified. The real question is… what happens next? She’s bound to tell Amber, right?

"Though she could have also asked Naomi about it since she did almost kill her at the resort, but then again I don't know/remember if Anna had privy to the knowledge of that vacation."

It’s funny to think about that shared link between Naomi and Rebecca… even if it started with a near-death stomp under Naomi’s pale sole. But you’re right though, I wonder if she even DOES remember Rebecca.

"As for what's next I either see her offering Becca up as Trevor's -slave- girl or doing something insane like either offering Becca too or leaving for The Kingdom herself. Helena would relish in having a bargaining chip like her only daughters lover underfoot so to speak in her quest to curry and seemingly corral Domica into her favor and The Sisterhood."

Ha, yeah that’d be a bold move! But honestly, I think Trevor would see through that ploy immediately. He’s too sharp (and too familiar with Rebecca) to buy her as some sudden “slave offering.” Even Donnica and Annabel seem to realize they’ll have to tread carefully there, which is why they’re vetting other candidates who can use intellect and charm to slip past his skepticism. Even if she wanted to Rebecca’s far too distinct for that role… she’s Rebecca, after all.

Still, I’m really looking forward to seeing how all that tension unfolds. Donnica is such a glorious mess whenever Trevor’s involved and watching her try to control that chaos is half the fun.

Thanks again for such a detailed review, man. They just keep getting sharper and more layered every time… absolutely love reading them!

Much love!

You know, I remember when Amber and Rebecca first 'reconciled', you left a comment saying that while you were glad they'd moved past their rocky beginnings, you were a little dismayed that we wouldn’t get to see them in a more openly cruel dynamic, and honestly, I kind of felt the same way at the time. But I’m actually really happy with how their relationship has evolved. There’s still that underlying dominance, even moments of cruelty, but it’s wrapped in something more emotionally layered now. Especially with Scarlett added into the mix!

That’s not to say the story’s lacking in true cruel energy... far from it. In fact, I’ve got some really brutal slave/master material coming up with a few of the other characters that I cannot wait to write. So definitely keep an eye out for that.

Also, I love that line you used: Trevor as “a man in an insect’s body.” That’s perfect. And yeah, his worldview is definitely... complicated haha. Maybe even contradictory. He’s deeply independent and passionate about protecting what he believes in, but at the same time, he’s drawn to the very power structures he’s supposed to be resisting at times. There's something magnetic to him about that hierarchy between the rulers and the ruled. I love writing that kind of inner conflict. 

Thank you, too, for the kind words on the sex scenes! I honestly put a ton of effort into them because, let’s be real, they’re a big part of why we’re all here ;)

And finally, I loved getting a review like this, from a reader who has already seen more of the story unfold. It’s so cool seeing those reflections come in with the benefit of hindsight. Can’t wait to hear your thoughts on the following chapters with the same hindsight.

Thanks again, man!

"Okay, first and foremost with S3, that vore scene? Holy fuck, man! You've been nailing those in this story, but this last one was so fucking good! Better than the one in the previous chapter, and that one was fantastic in its own right!"

Haha man, I was waiting for your reaction! I put a ton of work into that one… honestly, it might’ve gone through more revisions than any other SMUT scene I’ve written so far. I always want these scenes to land, maybe even more than the stuff I’m naturally drawn to, because I love the challenge of making them great!

So yeah, I’m thrilled it landed for you… and just for the record, there’s definitely more vore on the horizon ;)

"I also appreciated how you emphasized the different approaches each giantess took to their meal, and I think that gave us some insight into who each one is."

YES! I’m so glad that came across. I really wanted to make their eating styles extensions of their personalities… to show rather than tell, as it were. Four powerful women, all equals, but each expressing their dominance in her own distinct way. It took a lot of planning to make it feel organic rather than gimmicky, so hearing you caught all that detail (especially Helena’s stress eating) made my day.

Can’t wait to see what kind of fallout that meeting leaves behind...

"To be clear, I'm not saying that Helena has a problem with eating tinies. I just don't think she's into it. Or maybe she does and just buries it deep, right next to her feelings for Celine."

Oh, for sure… Helena doesn’t have issues with it. She sees it as part of the Sisterhood’s order, something ritualistic that she upholds without hesitation. But that little jab about her repressed feelings? Perfect. Absolutely perfect. I was grinning reading that line.

"The Kelly angle in this segment was so much fun! Getting a ground-level perspective of those "descending fingers' was really ... fuck, man! That shit alone was prime "field testing" material! And that line about the gods absently choosing their meals? Fanfuckingtastic!"

Yes, my dude! That’s the best compliment anyone can give a SMUT writer… that the material was properly ‘field tested’ haha! Kelly’s POV was essential for that scene. It made it way more complicated (and way longer) to write, but it was the only way to capture the terror, awe, and twisted intimacy of what was happening above her. Totally worth it.

"But Kelly's "journey" was great, too. The fact that she put so much faith in Donnica despite how unlikely it seemed like Donnica would help her. That helped sell her desperation; despite how little Donnica cared about her, tormented her in the nail salon even, Kelly still convinced herself that Donnica would save her. And the way she pushed that dude into Marion's elegant fingers was shitty of her, of course, but fuck was it sexy as hell thinking about Marion gently trying to shake him off her sticky fingers and "resigning" herself to eating him instead of the curiosity she'd been eyeing all meal."

I was really worried that Kelly’s belief in Donnica would feel too far-fetched, so I’m glad it worked for you. I went back and forth on that section countless times, trying to frame her hope as pure desperation… because when you’re facing certain death, you’ll cling to any illusion of rescue.

And yeah, that bit with the guy stuck to Marion’s fingers? I almost cut it during revisions to save time, but I’m so glad I didn’t. It really made the climax of Kelly’s journey all the sweeter.

"Then Donnica recognized her and ate her anyway! The perfect end to Kelly's journey! That "Oh, it's you" line cracked me up, because I knew exactly what was coming! Fuck that whole thing was good!"

Haha, yeah… that “Oh, it’s you” moment was basically Kelly’s whole arc boiled into one cold shrug. That split second where all her hope dies before she does. It was simple, cruel, and exactly how I wanted to punctuate the scene.

"And while I'm still on the vore stuff, the Lover's Delight was a lovely way to end the meal. To back married couples into the dough like that and intentionally separate them before eating each one is a special kind of casual cruelty, so of course Yuriko is the one to show Donnica the proper way to do it! Yurilo talking over the screaming husband, paying him no attention as she excitedly talks about the desert with Donnica was amazing! Also, the fact that they would (allegedly) go out of their way to make sure these are actual couples they're serving is even more delightfully evil. The Sisterhood is really particular about the role each tiny plays in their system."

I've gotten so much great feedback on the Lovers’ Delight (through reviews, messages, everything) that it’s honestly making me want to sit down and dream up another specialty dish! My favorite bit of “casual cruelty” in that whole sequence was definitely when Donnica teases Yuriko about indulging in an “impure” dessert, and Yuriko just laughs it off with, “Even the Japanese love dessert.” I don’t know why, but that exchange made me grin so much while writing it.

"And this was really driven home when Donnica's main thought at seeing the elegant setup was about the dinner she had planned with Amber, Annabel, and Trevor, rather than power structures or ways to take her "rightful place' among these elites. I think that says more about Donnica than anything!"

Yeah, I’m always trying to find ways to draw that line between Helena and Donnica, and I thought the contrast in how they each entered and experienced the restaurant was the perfect opportunity to do it. I’m so glad you noticed that (and even wrote three paragraphs on it!) it’s one of those details I poured way too much time into and assumed would just quietly pass under the radar, so seeing it picked up was FIRE!

"And confirmation that Helena's Kingdom is the only one in the Sisterhood was interesting, by the way. That seems to reinforce my theory that breaking into the Seed Code is about expanding the Kingdom to other Sisterhood communities rather than increasing the size of Helena's own Kingdom. Helena should really thank Celine for that gift!"

Ahhh yes… the Seed Code! What could that mystery be all about?

We’ll be heading back to the Kingdom soon, and I’m honestly so excited to revisit that part of the world. My writing pace is glacial though… when I released that first Kingdom chapter a few months back, I thought I’d be returning to it right away, but these other storylines just keep growing on me. One day, I will finish this story… I swear!

And yes, Helena really should be grateful for Celine… shouldn’t she?

"Instead, Donnica laid down the law! And she did it in a way that they had to respect. She didn't give them the "he's special" line, trying to convince them that she's in the right. She isn't beholden to anyone, and she made that perfectly clear! There's no reason to justify herself to them. She's the ruler, and she decides who will rule with her. If other people find the fact that her partner is tiny to be contradictory or hypocritical, that's their problem, and she has no time for it! I fucking loved this moment!"

This was such a fun moment to write! I’d been waiting for a chance to really test Donnica against equals, and this was it. She spent most of the scene playing it cool, carefully navigating the table, but the second Trevor came up, her restraint was gone. That’s her line in the sand.

At first, I wasn’t sure how I was going to resolve that conflict, but it came together naturally: Donnica gets to have Trevor because she decides it. No justification, no defense… just authority. And of course, that made sense within the Sisterhood’s logic too. Power respects power, and Donnica simply commanded it. It ended up clarifying a lot about how the Sisterhood truly works.

"But we also saw Donnica softening up to the Sisterhood a bit by the end of things. She's starting to think of Helena on slightly friendlier terms, and she seemed to really enjoy the comradery she was sharing with the other three women, equals in her mind. That's potentially a scary prospect, especially with Yuriko's comment about Donnica maybe "unlearning" some stuff, but I'm really not concerned. I do think you're going to make us sweat a bit at some point, but I have no doubt that Donnica will always choose Trevor in the end (even if loses herself for a minute and chooses something else in the short term). And I still say that the bond these women seem to share, as well as the bond the Sisterhood shares with their subjects, is empty (The Hollow was a great name for the restaurant in that regard). Helena and company think what they have is better only because they don't have what Donnica has with Trevor."

Ah yes, Donnica did start to warm up a bit, didn’t she? For all her suspicion and pride, the allure of that kind of power is hard to resist. I’m really curious to see how the people closest to her react to this new opportunity, maybe we’ll get some answers next chapter ;)

And I love how fiercely you champion her bond with Trevor. That connection really is the heart of the story… it’s weathered everything so far, but I wonder how much more it can take…

"Oh, and it looks like my way-to-soon prediction that Marion is Penelope's mom was wrong, since she's from the U.S. But it seems like both Marion and Yuriko received their "training" in England just like Helena did, so I'm thinking that Penelope's mom was the one who trained them. That would make her pretty high up in the organization, I'd think, especially since Marion and Yuriko are pretty advanced within its ranks on their own."

Yeah, one thing’s for sure… something big happened in England. Between Helena’s mentions last chapter of the old castles that she did her fellowship in and her shared “training” history with the other women in this chapter, it’s clear there’s a deep connection there. And of course, we know she’s still bound to Penelope’s mother in some way, who just so happens to live there too.

Will DAW be going international soon? Maybe ;)

"This was a great way to cap off the chapter overall! The dinner conversation was tense at times, fun at others, and greatly enjoyable overall. And the vore, again, was awesome!"

You know me, man… I’m always pumped to hear your take on the vore scenes! I’m so glad it landed the way it did. And yeah, I can’t resist layering in a bit of lore and worldbuilding beneath the chaos (even if it’s stuff that’s been implied for ages, it’s nice to finally confirm it outright).

Thanks as always for the review, brother… your breakdowns are always a highlight to read!

"But another reason Rebecca might be able to sometimes tell an angry Amber off (or at least she was able to up until this point; we'll see if Amber follows through on cracking down on Rebecca in the chapters ahead) might have a lot to do with Amber herself. We know that the personal feelings between giant and tiny can play a serious role in imprinting because of Vivara's explanation to Donnica regarding why Trevor hasn't been subject to the full effects of imprinting (this might also have something to do with Juliette and Clara's unique dynamic as well). So it could be that Amber's love and admiration for Rebecca has given the tiny a bit more free will in the process than the average imprinted tiny."

Yeah, I think the fascinating thing about imprinting when it comes to Rebecca and Amber (at least based on what we’ve learned so far) is how much of it is tied to their emotional connection as well as their ‘biology’. On the surface, it looks like imprinting is what’s pulling them together, but it could just as easily be pushing them apart by the way it shapes their behavior… especially Amber’s.

We’ll be diving back into The Kingdom soon, and the meaning behind imprinting will start to expand a little. I love that you’re drawing these connections from this storyline (Amber and Rebecca), even though it isn’t directly about (or directly referencing) imprinting, it still reveals a lot about how it really works beneath the surface.

"And Amber's behavior here is no less interesting than Rebecca's. Or rather, what's behind the giant blonde's behavior. All of the factor's leading into Amber "snapping' were laid out a couple times in the segment: sexual frustration from honoring Rebecca's decline for morning sex, annoyance at the drill not going well/Rebecca pushing them so hard, Rebecca's near-death experience, seeing Rebecca held by a nude Scarlett, and months of noticing the signs of Scarlett's feelings for Rebecca. That all makes sense, and all of them surely played a major role in Amber's attitude here, but there are two potential factors that aren't mentioned: the scars of Amber's abused past and the imprinting process itself."

Oh man… great catch on both counts! Amber’s trauma definitely bleeds into how she handles intimacy and conflict. It’s an open question whether she’s aware of it in her quieter moments (she’s had no therapy, no real self-work) but she’s not completely blind to her damage either. Sometimes awareness alone is enough to spark those small, painful moments of reflection that lead to growth. What will it lead to when it comes to Amber…

"The other factor here could be the effect that imprinting is having on Amber herself. Granted, some of the things I've noticed and believe might be attributed to this could also fit into that cycle of abuse I mentioned above, but I'm still suspicious imprinting doesn't just affect tinies."

I love this point! It’s such a sharp observation… and one that might become increasingly relevant later on. Imprinting is more complicated than it seems, and the idea that it might be a two-way street is absolutely a good guess! Your suspicions might be spot-on ;)

…though the type of effect it has in reverse might surprise people.

"So is this primal desire something biological and beyond her control? Because Amber trying to talk herself out of punishing Rebecca, telling herself that she was overreacting, is what makes this whole thing so tragic to me. Amber is a good person. We've seen several examples of this, as both Rebecca and now Trevor can attest. She's innocent and has a big heart. But she's being pulled away from all that by these all-consuming emotions that lead her to do terrible things, things that leave her feeling guilty and ashamed of herself once she's thinking rationally again."

Yeah, I’m really glad Amber’s coming across as tragic more than simply cruel. She’s done terrible things, but there’s a sadness in how she repeats what she’s endured. Between her trauma and the primal pull of imprinting, she’s caught in something much bigger than she understands.

"Oh, and it probably doesn't help that her "role model" for most of her life, Donnica, isn't exactly what I would call emotionally healthy herself! I imagine that probably has something to do with the way Amber processes stress too!"

Great point! Maxime made a similar observation in his review about the parallels between Amber and Donnica in this segment. The controlling behavior, the jealousy, the emotional volatility… the resemblance is undeniable. Makes you wonder just how deep those similarities really go, or what else they have in common.

"And, of course, the irony of Rebecca being on the receiving end of so much ire from Amber after being the actual victim of both incidents isn't lost on me, either. She was almost crushed and was nearly suffocated by Scarlett's clothes, and now Amber is "punishing" her. It's hard not to be frustrated for poor Rebecca, who, like a good little domestic violence victim and/or cult member, accepts the blame for her own suffering (and being held in the hand of a naked giant, something she had no actual control over). To be fair, Rebecca did brush off both incidents, so it was likely easy for a frustrated Amber to not think about that and focus more on herself, but, while understandable and even relatable, that doesn't really make it any better."

Another day in DAW, another terrible thing for poor Rebecca to survive! Business as usual in this world of beautiful cruelty.

"I have a question! As I've mentioned before, I'm not well-versed in soccer, so while I could clearly visualize what Amber and Scarlett were doing in that scene on the practice field, there's a lot about the significance of what they're doing that I don' understand. As a sports fan in general, however, the language "resigned to the failed play" stood out to me. Scarlett took the blame for the soccer ball incident and clearly felt guilty about it, but was it really her fault?"

OH MY GOD, dude! I can’t believe you noticed that, yes! It was totally more Amber’s fault than Scarlett’s. Scarlett was trying to salvage a broken play, but Amber had already checked out, deflecting the ball instead of engaging. If she’d stayed alert, she probably would’ve been ready for the pass. You could technically blame both, but Amber absolutely was more in the wrong here!

I’m honestly impressed that you noticed this haha. It’s why I love these reviews man.

"I love how both Scarlett and Amber have clocked each other regarding Rebecca in this segment. Amber is piecing together that Scarlett has a thing for Rebecca and might be a "threat" to take Rebecca from her, and Scarlett has recognized clear signs that Amber is abusive to Rebecca at times. While it wasn't stated explicitly, the way Scarlett asked Rebecca if she was okay and talked to Amber after the backpack incident seemed to indicate that Scarlett has noticed Amber's "less-than-kind" treatment of Rebecca for a while now."

Yes, exactly! This was the moment where both giantesses really saw each other for the first time… what they wanted, what they feared, what they’d do to protect or possess Rebecca. It was all instinct and emotion, spiraling fast before either of them could think. Their next meeting (spoiler: it opens the next chapter) is where we see the fallout of all that! Because tempers do calm, and realizations dawn… it’ll be interesting to see how they both react after things have settled.

"Speaking of which, I loved how Scarlett acted around Amber at that point: talking slowly, trying to keep her calm, and keeping her eye on Amber. That behavior makes it pretty clear that Scarlett believes that Amber is capable of actually hurting Rebecca. It also makes me wonder if she has some experience with situations like this. I don't think Scarlett was abused, but maybe she knows somebody who has been and has tried to help them through it (maybe an old tiny girlfriend?). Or maybe she wants to get into a career that involves helping abuse victims. In any case, I got the impression that Scarlett is more familiar with this sort of thing than the average teenager."

As always… amazing catch. Scarlett absolutely has a deeper understanding of tiny/giant relationship dynamics than most people her age. You’re right to suspect there’s history there. We’ll be delving into her personal life soon, and I’m really excited to show what shaped her empathy and the way she carries herself.

"And Amber refusing to see what's obvious, too worked up and afraid of Scarlett coming after Rebecca to register that Scarlett has good reason to be so concerned. If their roles were reversed, I imagine that scene would have ended with Amber punching Scarlett in the face in an effort to save Rebecca (which might not have ended so well). But Amber just can't see it, which, again, just makes the whole thing so much sadder."

Yeah, that’s such a sharp read. It really comes down to upbringing… Amber and Scarlett are two products of entirely different worlds. Amber grew up in chaos: an absent father, a somewhat distant mother, and layers of abuse. Scarlett, on the other hand, seems to come from a home filled with love and stability. When those two worlds collide, you can feel the difference immediately in how they respond to the same situation.

"And the way you guided us through Rebecca dealing with the situation, the smell, the lack of fresh air, and even the way Scarlett's sweat and dirty clothes made it so easy to feel everything. I'm not a smells guy by any means, but I can still appreciate the artistry of conveying Rebecca's struggle to survive (and not get turned on) so vividly. Well done!"

I love hearing that… even from readers who aren’t into a particular part of the fetish I am exploring! For me, the SMUT scenes are like the action sequences in an action story… they’re where emotion, tension, and theme all collide in physical form. So it’s always satisfying when those scenes still work as storytelling moments, even for people who aren’t reading them (mostly) for the erotic angle.

"Man, I can't wait to see where things go with these three from here. I have no idea if Scarlett and Amber will be able to salvage their friendship after this, if for no other reason than Rebecca herself. I think they can get past being upset with each other in the moment, but can Scarlett move past the apparently nagging concern that Amber is abusing Rebecca? And how can Amber possibly allow Scarlett to see Rebeca again now that she's certain that Scarlett wants the tiny for herself? Not to mention that I'm sure there's a sense of betrayal lingering somewhere in Amber's mind, even if she realizes that Scarlett didn't actually make a move."

That’s the big question, isn’t it? Once you see someone’s true nature, it’s impossible to unsee it. They might move on, but that awareness lingers. Whether they can rebuild anything after this (or what it’ll look like if they do) is going to be really interesting to explore. Their next encounter is… interesting!

"Anyway, awesome segment! Again, the blend of smut and drama hit the sweet spot, keeping me engaged with both the narrative and the more fetish-y end of things (that shower scene, though!)."

Haha, you know how it is… always trying to hit that perfect sweet spot between story and SMUT! I really loved how that scene came together, especially how the fight bled straight into the sex, making it raw and emotional. Those charged, possessive emotions always make for the most explosive (hot) moments.

"And that brief mention of the registration forms, the thing she wanted so badly, being folded neatly on her desk drove the point home more than paragraph after paragraph of simply explaining Naomi's transition ever could. Show, don't tell at its absolute best!"

Wow! Talk about a detail I never expected anyone to pick up on! I really wanted to draw a clear sense of distance between who Naomi is now and who she used to be, but the segment was already pushing its limits length-wise, so I had to rely on small, deliberate choices in the prose to make that contrast land. It’s amazing to see it worked!

And yeah… that scene sure didn’t do any favors for Victoria’s “FUCK VICTORIA” reputation, haha.

"I also absolutely loved the gaping contrast between Annabel's structured world and Naomi's clusterfuck of a life as illustrated throughout the first half of the segment. Even at the beginning, when Annabel is alone, she's so organized that she took the stairs to her apartment to make up for not being able to fit her workout into her busy schedule. Her suffering screamed efficiency every literal step of the way!"

Yes! That contrast really was the engine driving so much of the tension and reflection in this part. Taking two people who are complete opposites and just letting them exist in the same space naturally generates friction… and growth. I loved opening with the stair crawl for that exact reason. Every scene should bleed the theme, and having Annabel take the stairs instead of the elevator immediately set her apart from Naomi in how they live and think.

"Given who Annie is, I can't blame her for finally hitting her breaking point with the contents of the bag and falling into the same kind of rant Naomi always shut herself off from. But she realized what she had done after the fact, and it really hurt her to be like all those other authority figures who just endlessly criticized Naomi but never once made an effort to help her. It was gratifying to see Annabel recognize this, as I feel as though all the others had already dismissed Naomi by the time they were done ranting and lecturing. That self-awareness was so great to see in her."

What did you think of that whole sequence with Annabel taking the contents out of the bag? One of the most ‘traumatic experiences’ Annabel had ever gone through… it made me laugh while writing it just because of how much of her unraveling you could feel in that moment. But yes, it was all meant to lead up to her finally snapping, to show how easily she fell into the same patterns Naomi’s always endured. I wanted that realization afterward (the self-awareness) to really feel earned.

"Thinking about the larger story, I honestly don't think the Annie we saw in the earlier chapters would have been capable of anything close to the level of understanding she displayed up to that point, let alone after it. I believe she has Trevor to thank for this, that lesson on empathy teaching her that people doing things to upset her have their own problems, troubling issues driving their behavior that Annie had never considered before. Sure, Naomi wasn't a bully like the ones she thought of when everything clicked for Annie, but the same logic applies here."

That’s such great insight, and I’m thrilled it came across! I’ve been trying to make sure every major character evolves through their interactions, and Annabel’s definitely been changed by her time with Trevor. He forced her to see the humanity beneath behavior she’d once written off. And now, with Naomi, she’s being pushed even further… into something almost maternal. Watching how that dynamic reshapes both of them is going to be really fun to write. (and read I hope!)

"But the highlight of this whole segment was Annie discovering Naomi's artistic talents. There was so much wrapped into that moment, but it was seeing the reality of who Naomi is, why she acts so aloof and disconnected from the world around her, that hit me the hardest. Because even though Annie cared about Naomi before that moment, as shown through her restraint, Annie still thought less of her in a way. She still thought of Naomi as lazy, kind of dumb, and needlessly defiant, but seeing what Naomi could do with a pencil, seeing her full talent hidden within the chaos of her bookbag, completely changed Annie's perception of her. Annie recognized that a lot of Naomi's issue was that Naomi had so much talent, so much latent ability, that she didn't know what to do with it. That Naomi was bored with the world around her, so intensely focused on her art, even if no one was supposed to see it, even if it was only for her."

So happy to hear you call that the highlight! It really is the emotional centerpiece of the segment (even if the SMUT has its own “centerpiece,” later on in the segment haha). That scene went through so many rewrites just to get the rhythm of realization right… the shift from judgment to recognition to genuine understanding. Seeing both of them finally see each other for who they really are was incredibly rewarding to craft.

"The warmth that followed for the rest of that half-segment was so touching, so rewarding! Getting to see Naomi finally crawl out of her shell and just be happy, comfortable with herself was one of the more heartwarming moments of the story so far. And the way they both laughed when she said "I dunno" after Annie had been so frustrated and even scolded her over that earlier in the workshop was one of those absolutely perfect full-circle moments that give moments like this so much impact, even if the circle itself all took place within the same segment (actually, that left me even more impressed with it)."

So glad that “I dunno” moment landed! That was one of those small, satisfying callbacks that tie everything together emotionally. I had so much fun sneaking that in.

"It also makes sense to me that Annie's parents didn't approve of that lifestyle and seemingly tried to pull her out of that "phase" with structure and rules. It was still sad to read, though. It's nowhere near what Naomi is going through (at least as far as we know so far), but it does make me wonder how differently Annie might have turned out if her parents hadn't discouraged her from expressing herself, from being herself."

Actually, it wasn’t that Annie’s parents disapproved… she admitted she was simply too shy, too timid to go full goth when she was Naomi’s age.

"I also can't say enough how much I loved seeing Naomi relate to Annie's feelings just as much as Annie was relating to hers. Annabel showed some vulnerability here too, talking about how she felt like she couldn't be herself because she was mocked at school for wearing that cloak. Naomi has been through so much worse than that, but she didn't judge Annie through that lens; she understood the pain of ridicule in a broader sense and empathized."

Yes! I really loved writing that part. Relationships feel more authentic when empathy flows both ways, and this was my chance to show Naomi returning that care. Up to this point in the segment, Annabel’s been the one drawing Naomi out, but this was Naomi’s turn to reach back… to comfort, to understand. It made the whole exchange feel complete.

"Also, of course Annie has a fuckton of goth stuff she just never wears! That's so very her, purchasing things that make her happy, even knowing she could never wear them, giving them their proper place in her closet. She never half-asses anything!"

Yesss! This was such a fun little detail to include! It’s so Annabel to collect all that high-quality goth gear and keep it perfectly organized even if no one ever sees it. Having Naomi stumble upon it and see that hidden side of her was a treat to write. I love how perspective can shift meaning and really make a moment feel alive!

"Having this continue to play out in the story's background as you keep moving things forward with the plot and characters in the foreground has been executed so masterfully so far. Those little mentions in passing since Helena first brought the case up in trash town have been sprinkled in just enough to make sure we don't forget that it's happening in real time."

Thank you so much for saying that! The GRSP case is obviously a huge pillar of the larger story, but I’ve intentionally kept it simmering in the background until the right moments to really dig in. I wanted it to feel like a living thread quietly influencing everything else… so I’m thrilled to hear it feels balanced and natural rather than forgotten or forced.

"And you didn't disappoint! Naomi's casual stroll through tiny government housing was phenomenal. Setting the tone with Craig was the perfect way to start it, too. We even got some ... worldbuilding in there, learning that giants routinely get too close to the tiny housing and fuck up their world without knowing or caring. The deliveries had to be particularly devastating, but hearing that a surveyor would get so close just for convenience sake was hot to read, and it didn't even actually happen in this scene!"

Ahh, I love hearing this! I’ll admit I’m way more comfortable writing tiny people size-play rather than straight up giantess stuff, so this scene went through a lot of revisions. I wanted to capture that tension and danger without losing the grounded tone.

And the casual, incidental cruelty of scale, like the surveyor getting too close and causing chaos was something I didn’t notice as being overly erotic. I hadn’t fully thought of it as hot before you put it that way, but now that you’ve said it, I completely see it. That detached indifference, that ability to devastate entire lives just by existing… it’s something I’m absolutely going to lean into when I write one of these scenes again.

"But man, Craig's story really backed up what the non-working towers had already implied: that GRSP living was already hell. The boarded up windows and "penny-colored water" (ew!) are clear signs that the program is severely underfunded. And even though the story about his girlfriend taking everything after the "breakup" fits what we heard before, that didn't make it any less devastating to read. I mean, I suppose you can't blame the girlfriend for not wanting to date him anymore, but to see how the system so thoroughly skewed in her favor just because she was a giant was painful!"

Yeah, I was really glad to finally step into the perspective of a tiny outside the main cast… someone who isn’t Trevor or Rebecca, who both have very specific situations. Getting to explore what daily life looks like for the average smallfolk gave the world a bit more weight. And there’s more of that coming; I have a whole storyline coming that dives deeper into the GRSP system itself, FROM the tiny perspective. Should be fun!

"Because, fuck, the way Naomi did him in was nothing short of incredible. The tremors, the way Craig gradually went from being annoyed to becoming terrified, his desperation to get out of the building, to live despite how horrible his existence had become: All of it was perfect! And the way he described Naomi and her trek to his apartment was so fucking hot! The boot just standing where his apartment building had once been, not moving because it didn't have to ... Holy fuck, man! Naomi felt fucking massive! I loved every second of this!"

I’ve got to admit… I thought about you a little while writing that scene! You’d been asking for some proper crushing with footwear, and, well… here it is. Big boots and everything. I’m so happy it landed the way it did for you!

"Have I mentioned that I liked it yet?"

Haha, I love hearing that! I had so much fun writing it. And yes, there are definitely going to be more giantess-style moments like this coming soon… maybe even very soon :o

"Annie sitting back, arms behind her back, and merely taking out the few escapees to evade Naomi's surprising efficient decimation of the tiny world below her ankles (great fucking line, by the way!), was oddly cute, too. Annie admiring how thorough Naomi was fits her personality perfectly, too. And the way Naomi looked over to Annie for permission, for encouragement, built off that last scene so well! Not to mention how all of that bonding and lightheartedness fed into such delicious evilness in a tone clash that beautifully enhanced the latter scene rather than distracted from it."

That’s exactly what I was hoping would come through. I really wanted all that earlier character work to make the destruction feel richer… almost justified in its weird emotional logic. I wasn’t sure if it would land or just clash tonally, especially because we seeing things differently as a fetish audience, but I trusted my gut. So hearing that it worked for you means a ton.

"But Annie doesn't know how to help her. She's offered refuge, now love and a kindred spirit in which Naomi can confide her love of all things goth, and even a mentor to guide Naomi in the ways of training and destroying tinies. But Annie can't help her deal with the mental trauma that has so deeply scarred Naomi, let alone stop the still ongoing source of that trauma. The powerlessness of Annie in the final few sentences of this segment made my heart ache!"

Beautifully said. Even though Naomi’s in a safer place now, that doesn’t mean the ghosts stop following her. Sometimes no amount of comfort (or even love) can completely protect someone from what they’ve lived through. That’s the space I really want to explore between them going forward.

"Awesome segment! The balance between emotional depth and smut was seriously impressive!"

Thank you, man! You always manage to pinpoint exactly what’s working beneath the surface. And I can tell you’re just as happy as I am to finally have Annie and Naomi back in the story more prominently :D

"I have to say it's truly heartwarming to see such a tender bonding moment end with the bonding parties gleeful desire to go murder an entire horde of defenseless people. Hallmark really doesn't offer that kind of resolution."

A real feel-good moment, right? Nothing like a bit of death and destruction to bring people together!

"At first I really was almost lowkey wanting to see Anna switch her allegiance to following Naomi, the raw unbridle teen foot funk breaking down tinies the way few if any had before her. The way she molded the two wild soon to be stains into a dedicated hardworking team really shows that while her methods are not polished she has more than enough skill to set the breaking world on fire."

Great catch! Naomi really does have a natural talent for breaking tinies… maybe that’s what caught Annabel’s eye about her in the first place. She’s rough around the edges, but there’s definitely some real skill there. I can’t wait to see how the “business” partnership between her and Annabel grows and what chaos they unleash together.

"We're really getting a whole new Naomi here, Becca would be proud if not for the impending mass murder they were about to unless."

Yeah, Naomi’s been so much fun to develop lately… from the training and failed tests scenes with Annabel to her going absolutely wild on the tiny people compound. But yeah… Rebecca might not be as proud of the direction the goth girl is headed haha… though it definitely makes for a hell of a story!

"Poor Craig really almost had it all didn't he but alas it was not meant to be."

It just wasn’t meant to be for poor tiny Craig.

"All these heartfelt moments between Anna and Naomi punctuated by the mass murder of thousands, at first I figured Domica trying to dismantle the org was for her own selfish reasons and whilst still true they really are fairly inept at their jobs."

Maybe Annabel was right… Donnica might actually be doing everyone a favor by dismantling the GRSP! Then again, Anna and Naomi probably could’ve found a slightly less murderous way to expose just how bad it is LOL

"The more Anna brings out of Naomi however does lead me to believe that if her and Amber could eventually come to terms that they'd have one more ally against Helena when/if the time came for Domica to make a move on The Kingdom."

I love this line of thinking! Amber getting pulled into whatever Annabel and Naomi are building would be wild, and as we know from the last chapter, Annabel is already starting to dig into Amber’s life. Who knows, maybe they’ll all end up on the same side of things at some point.

Ya never know…

"Shame she was whipping those young ladies into well formed athletes worthy of Team USA before that near death experience. But Amber Giveth and it seems now Amber has Taketh Away."

Yeah, deep down, Amber is still that possessive, hot-tempered girl we saw at the very start… she just can’t fully bury it, no matter how much she’s grown. But honestly, everything that could go wrong for her in that scene did go wrong: denied in bed, struggling with the drill, Rebecca’s near-death, then walking in on Scarlett holding her naked. Sometimes it all just explodes at once.

"I understand her being possessive over Amber and you letting the cat out of the bag about her noticing Scarlett's love for her but seeing Amber back in pre-GF mode with Becca certainly is a sight but then again she is Domica's daughter."

That’s such a good point… she really is Donnica’s kid, after all! It’ll be interesting to see how the possessiveness and fire carry forward, especially now that she’s been pushed over the edge. Can she walk it back? Does she even want to?

"Scarlett's alone time with Becca was quite wonderful and maybe in a world where she'd found her first instead of the all encompassing force that is Amber things might have worked out for them."

Yeah, I actually think Scarlett and Rebecca might have more in common than Rebecca and Amber do, and something is definitely blossoming there. In another world, who knows what could have happened between them…

…but also, maybe it’s not out of reach in this world either….

"Though I get Amber's newfound rage over things given the pressure she is always under and her brattiness always seems to bubble to the top. It's just finding its way towards people she cares about versus the usual unfortunate tiny who comes across her any given day."

You nailed it, sometimes we take out our anger on the people closest to us, and Amber definitely unloads all of that on Scarlett and Rebecca here. That pressure cooker finally burst.

"Being stuffed in her ass notwithstanding I -still- foresee the three of them somehow ending up together in some sort of poly relationship, Amber as the hot headed force of nature and Scarlett as the level headed loving soul who both fiercely protect and look after Becca."

Very interesting prediction! Amber made her stance on sharing her tiny girlfriend pretty clear in this moment, but all of that was said in the heat of anger. You never know what could happen when these three are all together again…

"I must say the entire Kelly arc was wonderful especially Donnica's response to finally recognizing her, just wonderful dismissive cruelty by a woman of her stature."

Thank you! I really wanted to bring that “table level” perspective, where the horror and eroticism blend right at the ground level. That sense of scale (and the sheer, offhanded cruelty) really comes alive that way. It’s something I tried to do with Craig back in S1 as well. Makes for longer, more immersive scenes, but I think it works especially well in a fetish context.

"The Lovers Delight was also a stroke of cruelty I am shocked nobody has ever consider creating before in all the years I've been reading giantess related content."

Appreciate it! I had a blast coming up with that one.

"I picked up on the line about -unlearning- things during the end of the dinner which leads me to believe the Sisterhood does -not- want Trevor around for long now that Donnica has joined them. It definitely seems like a dangerous game they are playing if they attempt to get rid of him on their own or worse yet force her hand...or foot."

Yeah, that line was absolutely aimed at Trevor! The Sisterhood would much rather he wasn’t in the picture now that Donnica has shown interested, but making a move against him would definitely put them at odds with her. And yet, Donnica seemed pretty taken by the Sisterhood too… Watching her navigate those loyalties, between her heart and her desire for power, will be very interesting.

"I honestly have a weird feeling somebody at that table tonight will end up shrunken in the final wave if/when it comes. It would not surprise me honestly if Donnica was the only one left standing after the dust settled. She's a force unlike any other and having her merely be a -part- of The Sisterhood feels a little beneath her in the grand scheme of things."

Donnica being the only one left standing does feel oddly fitting… she really does embody that “one true goddess” energy. If there’s anyone who could outlast everyone else, it’s her.

"I just hope The Sisterhood is ready for what they've gotten themselves into, The Kingdom too by proxy."

Oh, they have no idea! The Sisterhood is trying to claim Donnica, but Donnica has her own ideas about claiming power for herself. And with The Kingdom still in play, everything’s about to get a lot more chaotic. Things are definitely heating up from here!

"1. As for Anna and Naomi I am happy for them both given how much crap both ended up taking during the earlier chapters. Granted their murdering people but at least their finally finding happiness in their lives whilst doing so...half the battle and all that jazz."

Yeah, those two just click together so naturally! For all the chaos and horror they leave in their wake, I genuinely love writing them finally finding something like happiness… even if it’s drenched in blood.

"3. Craig's section was just fine as it really set forth the truly bleak and dejected world the tinies have to live in. The fact they are actively hunted for food or squished for fun just adding to that misery."

Exactly! Showing that ground-level, hopeless perspective is crucial for capturing just how marginalized tinies really are in this world… and, let’s be honest, it definitely amps up the hotness of the scene too ;)

"4. The GRSP REALLY needs an overhaul especially if the final wave is coming as is predicted by The Sisterhood."

It really does, doesn’t it?

"6. I think Amber eventually calms down before Becca is fully lost to her slave role and losses her autonomy as a mother/big sister type guiding light to both the girls."

Yeah, Amber isn’t just one thing or the other… she’s this deeply damaged teenager, wielding godlike power over someone she desperately loves, and who also is incredibly tiny. Watching her struggle to balance those instincts is going to be a wild ride.

"8. Yes, The Sisterhood was clearly mapped out and laid mostly bare for the reader to understand but maybe not -everything- for Donnica to -just- yet."

Glad it came across that way! There’s still a lot the reader can pick up on, but Donnica’s still left with plenty of questions and uncertainties. Her descent into the Sisterhood is only just beginning…

"9. I really wanted...but knew it couldn't happen but to see Donnica kick her shoes off and prop those dogs right up on the table. I appreciate The Sisterhood and the new ladies played their parts perfectly but I still have the gut feeling Donnica will be the last one standing if/when the final wave hits."

Haha, what a scene that would’ve been! I think Donnica was too fascinated by the Sisterhood to do something quite that brazen… this time. But don’t worry, you haven’t seen the last of Donnica’s feet ;)

Thanks as always for the review! I always love reading your thoughts.

That vore scene has been getting a ton of positive feedback... so glad it landed the way I hoped! Already got plans brewing for the next one ;)

Yeah, the tinies definitely live in rough conditions... at least outside The Kingdom.

That point about them all disappearing is really interesting though. Makes me wonder what their fate is going to be.

"It starts with a Cinderella-like setup, but instead of a fairy godmother, we have five tiny women supervised by Lorelei, tasked with making Celine absolutely flawless for the dinner. She has to be pristine from head to toe, and they ensure no detail is overlooked, Lorelei won’t let anything slip. When Lorelei is satisfied with the result, Celine is placed inside the globe."

I absolutely love you calling it an inverse Cinderella setup! Instead of a fairy godmother and her helpers, it’s five tiny slaves doing the prep… such a great comparison, and it really captures the strange, twisted magic of that scene. It was so much fun to write it that way!

"This part is so much fun; I love the military vibe, with Lorelei’s cold, calm demeanor, a mix of an army general and a surgeon. Another small detail I enjoy is Celine recognizing Lorelei’s origin just by her accent, showcasing her vast knowledge. This preparation scene reminds me of Rebecca’s for the princess pageant, with Lorelei acting like Scarlett but without our favorite redhead’s warmth."

I was hoping people would catch that! Celine is so sharp, she picks out exactly where in Germany Lorelei is from just by her English accent… she misses nothing. And I love that you caught the callback to the princess pageant prep with Scarlett and Rebecca, except now it’s this dark, inverted version. Celine isn’t getting dressed up for fun or glory, she’s being made perfect for Helena’s pleasure.

"Before the guest of honor appears, we get an intriguing and chilling description of the dinner bowl. Though we don’t yet know its contents, we can guess it’s tiny people, offered as sacrifice for the perfect body of Helena. And then she arrives. Everything around Helena feels so staged, so artificial she’s playing the role she was born to embody: a queen."

Yeah, preparing Celine was just one side of the setup… the other was Helena’s arrival, her grand entrance that shifts the whole mood. It wouldn’t have landed right if I hadn’t focused on both sides of the scene. From your description, I think the contrast between Celine’s meticulous prep and Helena’s effortless dominance worked just the way I wanted.

"Even at dinner, she isn’t hungry; she eats the tiny people because protocol demands it, not out of desire. The dinner scene is fascinating because every Vore moment in this story is unique. If Victoria’s was about revenge and Annie’s was to prove something to Trevor, this one is cold and detached, it’s just food to Helena, a meal she doesn’t even consider. I love how you kept it minimal, giving just enough detail for us to savor it. But this dinner isn’t about the “food”; it’s about Helena’s guest, the perfect Celine."

I honestly hadn’t noticed that pattern until you pointed it out, but you’re absolutely right! Every vore scene so far has had its own distinct flavor… revenge for Victoria, a lashing out for Annie, and here with Helena it’s just cold, clinical ritual. She doesn’t even care about the act; it’s just something she’s expected to do. I’m glad you appreciated the more restrained detail, letting the atmosphere and the focus on Celine take center stage. Vore isn’t usually my main thing, but I’m having more and more fun with it as the story goes on, especially when it lets me dig into these shifting dynamics. Thanks so much for noticing!

"No matter how hard Helena tries, she can control Celine’s body but not her soul, Celine is far from broken, and Helena can’t accept that. She tries to dominate her by demanding a dance performance, but Celine’s perfection backfires on her. Celine’s flawless dance stirs Helena’s insecurities, reminding her that Celine has always been better. Helena, meant to be a goddess, is reduced to a mere spectator. I loved the moment where Helena eats the tiny people with her wine, lacking any class, it’s a rare glimpse of her natural self, unpolished by the act she puts on for everyone."

That’s exactly what I wanted! I needed a moment where Celine, forced to submit, could actually flip the power dynamic. The idea of her dancing and entrancing Helena (making the goddess lose her composure) was the perfect pivot. And Helena eating the tiny “just to chew on something” really drove home how unpolished and rattled she became. I’m so glad that resonated.

"You can feel the shift in their dynamic: Helena, introduced as an unstoppable goddess, becomes the insecure little girl again, while Celine emerges as the stronger one. It reminds me of the early chapters’ dynamic between Amber and Rebecca, where Rebecca’s experience as an adult gave her an edge despite the size difference. Here, though, both are grown women, and Helena is outwardly successful, but deep down, she’s still a lonely, scared little girl Who don’t know what love is (maybe she should spend time with Annie listening to Foreigner!)."

That Foreigner line killed me haha! You’re right… maybe she should listen to ‘I Want To Know What Love is’! And you’re dead-on with the comparison to Amber and Rebecca’s early dynamic. There’s that same subversion of who really holds the power, except Celine and Helena have a much longer, sharper history as rivals and, maybe, something more. The “hate” here is deeply lived-in and complicated. And as you said, there’s that sense Helena still doesn’t know what love really is, for all her power.

"Celine knows this and expertly targets Helena’s imposter syndrome. Despite her outward success, Helena feels inadequate, and Celine exposes that. At this moment, Celine wins. Helena isn’t the goddess, she pretends to be, she’s the sad, lonely girl, who need to be shielded by Celine’s strength like before. Finally, Helena drops the act, revealing her true self, and I loved that so much. I really like Helena and hope she’ll find happiness in the future, stop pretending, and discover real love. Her confession, “That’s because I’m all alone…” the trembling colossus whimpered, almost inaudibly, broke my heart."

That was such a big moment for Helena… seeing her let the mask drop, even just for a second. Up to now she’s mostly been this force of nature, but here you see the heartbreak, the isolation underneath. I really wanted to write her as someone deeply vulnerable, and I’m glad it came through so strongly.

"Celine’s reaction reminds me of Rebecca’s refusal to deliver the final blow to Amber. Instead of destroying Helena, Celine sees the young, vulnerable friend she once knew and shows kindness. But Helena, true to form, puts her mask back on, too late, though, because Celine has already won. In true Helena fashion, she resorts to what she can control: the weak, the tiny people meant to be eaten. I loved how the poor lady becomes collateral damage in the tension between these two women,it’s perfect, and that moment is hot, lol."

I love that you remember those earlier moments… like Rebecca refusing to twist the knife into Amber when she could have. It’s different here, but the principle is the same: Celine sees through the hate and dominance, finds the scared girl she used to care about, and offers real empathy. But Helena can’t accept it, not for long anyway, so she lashes out at the only thing she can still control. Her eating the tiny at the end was her desperate attempt to reassert her power. I’m glad it came off as both brutal and hot!

"What a phenomenal chapter, and this final segment completes it perfectly. I love the parallels with Amber and Rebecca, and as I said in my review of the second segment, Amber and Helena are so similar. I hope Amber chooses Rebecca over Donnica and doesn’t end up like Helena, forced to live a lie her whole life. Celine remains an incredible character, I’d love for her to meet Rebecca, though I’m not sure if it’d end in a bloodbath or a fast friendship. Finally, I adore Helena in this chapter. Seeing her true face behind the mask and armor she always wears is amazing."

Celine and Rebecca meeting would be incredible… and it could go any way! They’d probably get along until Celine started teasing Trevor, and then all bets are off.

I’m also thrilled with how Helena came out in this chapter. So thanks for pointing that out! She started monstrous in the second segment, but by the end of the third we saw something vulnerable, complicated, almost relatable. It’s a fetish piece at the end of the day, so cruelty rules, but it’s those flashes of something real underneath that make it all so much more satisfying to write.

Thanks so much for the review, as always… I loved this one!
