Great story. Love that it's her point of view.

An interesting little tale. I appreciated the detail of the world we received without needing unnatural amounts of exposition. Your protagonist's casual and almost autopilot handling of tinies while interacting with other humans is a subtle and oft-overlooked bit of action in stories, so kudos. Good stuff here.
Author's Response:
Thank you! I was writing with a 2000-word limit, so the challenge was to be economical with the exposition. You put your finger on the germ of this story's inspiration: a bound tiny exposed for examination, while a bored giant researcher goes about their routine and is then distracted. The indifference to the tiny's plight and their supreme vulnerability highlights the power differential. No teasing or threatening required.

The world that you've created is certainly a fascinating one, and I wonder if the narrator's intentions will continue to be benevolent. A thought-provoking story indeed.

Rose had a placeholder name before the final draft: I initially called her "Melissa."
