Julia seems like a megalomaniac with a good dose of narcissism.
Author's Response:
I'd say that's more than accurate.

Poor Charlie, he deserves whatever happens to him. I hope she fucking swallows the bastard whole :-)
Author's Response:
She's probably thinking something similar. Thanks for reading!

Great new chapter here, and it's great to see you getting the updates out so quickly. Sorry to not really have reviewed this one yet, though I have been reading it since the beginning, just not one to usually write the reviews and such. Getting really good though. The pace you're going at it strong, and I may be wrong here, but I'm guessing you have a pretty big story idea on the horizon, but want to try to get this one finished before you start commiting to a new story? Maybe not, but it feels like that's the case.
I do hope to see Charlie swallowed alive haha, though whatever happens to him shall be interesting. Great little way Jack baited him at the end. Also wondering as to where things go with the baby, whether it will be kept there, or if Julia will maybe grow it to normal size and take it to an orphanage or something, because the care and raising of it might be too much. Lots of interesting little threads here, and it feels like we're getting closer and closer to an endgame
Author's Response:
Thanks for reading/reviewing! You're actually pretty spot-on about my plan for this thing. There's a decent-sized turning point coming up in the next couple of chapters that I wanted to reach before beginning any new stories (probably Mommy's Time-out 6). It seemed best to reach a logical story break before taking an actual break again from it.
The endgame set-up, however, is still getting closer here. Charlie's in for some retribution, but the way I've got planned is a little different than anything I've done in this story yet. I won't spoil about the baby either, but I will say Julia's more than a little attached to her after holding her for the first time.

She gone hurt him real bad...

Count on it...

Julias gentleness in this chapter surprised me, and she went up my book because of it...But given all the crap shes done so far I wouldn't say the newborn is safe.
My only hope is that she at least doesnt kill the baby, shes completely innocent in all this!
Author's Response:
Julia's got no desire to kill the baby at the moment, though she's going to be pushed to a more extreme place than ever before very soon, so nobody's exactly "safe."

The way the chapter ended is just above comments - at least mine; I'll just say www.reddit.com/r/fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuu/.
While she may still be... well, herself with the child (count her as a new toy, leave her dad out of the game - you name it), now at least we can hope that whatever nasty thing she was supposed to do will not be against an infant ^^
The one thing that makes me worry is that the child still lacks a name - the smart thing to do would be to tell Julia, suggest a few candidates and ask her opinion, but given they had no time to think about it, Anna's death and about a zillion other reasons...
Author's Response:
Hmm, I suppose I've convinced you to come back for the next chapter, then?
You're correct about the baby. Julia's still Julia, but she's got a slightly different side to her that will eventually become more obvious now that the baby's here.
The baby's name will come into things a little later on, and you are right, there are a few more pressing matters at hand.

I'm just praying Julia has the decency to enlarge the child and send her to an adoption agency. Geez, if that baby was nearly 1/3 Anna's size, it's no fucking wonder she died.
Author's Response:
Ah, good catch there. That would certainly have contributed to it. I meant to say less than an inch, not an inch.
Date: May 16 2014 2:36 PM Title: Chapter 61: Everything Happens at Once
I cannot wait for Charlie to die. He's fucking delusional if he thinks rape is hot, that he has ANY chance with Julia, and that he has even a shred of "power" over her. Asshole, comparatively she's like 100+ feet tall, you ain't got SHIT on her. What a fucking pervert. Dude's like 30 and he wants to fuck a 16 year old.
Author's Response:
What a coincidence, this is the exact same attitude Julia's going to have next chapter...
Date: May 16 2014 2:03 PM Title: Chapter 61: Everything Happens at Once
I think Julia's new favorite dish is going to be...ground Chuck.
Author's Response:
Probably not terribly far off.
Date: May 16 2014 12:04 PM Title: Chapter 61: Everything Happens at Once
I only read this chapter because of Ancient Relic's review. I'm too afraid to read the others.
I'm hoping that the baby flips a permanent switch in Julia's mind. Maybe Julia will regain a sliver of humanity.
Author's Response:
Understandable; this story isn't exactly for the squeamish. Thanks for checking it out all the same!
Date: May 16 2014 11:52 AM Title: Chapter 61: Everything Happens at Once
Look at that, our villain does something likeable.
And next chapter will be interesting.
Author's Response:
I certainly hope it will be. Thanks for reading!

True, true, true. Thanks for reviewing.

It seems like Anna's death took most of us by surprise somehow - possibly because we assumed that anything bad would start from Julia somehow? You hinted she would be doing something to make her look bad in the next few chapters, I hope she'll take Anna's corpse and throw it away like garbage. Ok, maybe "I hope" isn't the best choice of words here, but since she spoke of the baby as a (bug? rodent?), just about anything that doesn't involve hurting Anna jr. looks suddenly better in comparison - a lot better.
On the bright side, carrying a baby is much easier than carrying a pregnant/weak Anna. That this is the only "bright" side I see tells a lot :(
Author's Response:
You're probably right on the reactions to it; up to now, it's been Julia snuffing people out directly. Still, I didn't want to just happily gloss over the fact that Anna's been going through a pregnancy in gulag conditions. Julia's reaction to the baby may surprise a few people as well, given her attitude to tiny people up to this point, though it's still not going to be an easy getaway.
You are definitely correct there: having to carry along Anna on the way out would probably have guaranteed failure. I guess we'll just have to wait and see now.

Haha, I came here to post almost exactly the same thing that Ancient Relic already did. Excellent chapter.
Author's Response:
Thanks for reviewing!

Damn, that hit hard. RIP Anna.
Author's Response:
Thanks for reading/reviewing!

I didn't see that coming...I should have given common sense but I didn't.
Fuck me that was a gut wrencher, I'm now rooting for them harder than before and just as hard as I am for Rixie's recovery.
God speed little ones!
Author's Response:
Glad to hear it had impact. Thanks for reading!

I bet she's happier dead, morbid but realistic.
Author's Response:
Morbid but realistic indeed.

Sensory overload...
I'm hoping you keep up the speed of the chapters after this one, kind of hard to sit on this one for six months. ;)
Author's Response:
Thanks for reviewing! We're coming up on the end of the third act here, and I intend to keep up the pace until at least that point.
Date: May 11 2014 10:07 PM Title: Chapter 59: Snitches Get Stitches
On the edge of my seat here. This story is so great! I don't know what happened that got you pumping out chapters but it's awesome.
Author's Response:
Thanks! As for what got me pumping out the chapters, I'd say guilt over my laziness?
Date: May 11 2014 10:00 PM Title: Chapter 59: Snitches Get Stitches
I think all Brian can see is red. And is probably not the only one that feels that way, besides Brian.
Things are getting interesting, plus with the regular update once again.
Thank you :)
Author's Response:
Sure! Thanks for reading/reviewing.
