Man, you have my utter admiration for the dedication you put in your writing. I am officialy a fan and I am sorry for not commenting on ch. 29, but I think it was for the best.

First, I never thought Poppy would give up on Molly, because I don’t see Poppy and Annabelle as entirelly separate individuals, and her imprint episodes with both Harper and now Molly are proof enough.

Annabelle interactions with Molly are, in my humble opinion, among the cutest in the series because, being who she is, Annabelle empowers Molly - she isn’t judgmental towards her and is capable of recognizing her good traits and efforts even after everything that happened (the shrinking, the torture and humiliation). I think this is a bit true to all 4 giantesses really.

And that’s exactly why Poppy’s comments about Anna not being an equal to Molly as well as Molly own remarks at the end leave a sour taste. Especially because Anna deserves her love and Molly really acted as a person in love with the shrinkee! You don’t say sorry to a bug, you don’t fight your sadistic freaking rich parents for a bug! You don’t endure chores for a bug! And you certainly don’t need a bug like Molly admitted needing Poppy!!

The giantess even says Anna should accept the feelings she secretly harbors for her... well talk about yourself. What would happen if one of the 4 actually admitted being in love with the shrinkee?   

God! This chapter and Molly got me so frustrated! Would she actually punish Anna after everything if she had continued? And just as I was  starting to shipp Anna with all female characters, even Anita. And the dream sequences were giving me hope... but not Mrs. Gates. Mrs. Gates can drop dead.

Molly is down to my least favorite character (I love her) and will remain there unless she confess her love for Annabelle... Now that I think about it, using her real name could be a sign of true closeness... Oh God... I am starting to doubt any of the four really love Anna again. TT_TT

What a great chapter, your effort really shone in every line.Can’t wait for the next one. And I know you said it wasn’t an invitation for predictions, but as we are entering what feels like a crucial part of the story, I have to look into ch. 2 again. I wouldn’t be myself if I didn’t at least tried LOL.

Already torturing poor Anna?

I can't really understand the need to drill this into her head though seeing she has a one in four chance of imprinting on Molly thus possibly making this a colossal waste of their time. Anita seems on of the nicer monsters who have come to interact with Anna during her trials with the Fearsome Foursome, a rather nice lady on the surface who just happens to work for outright monsters. I do always feel bad with the Anna self harm sections as she really worked hard to try to change for the positive only to get kicked right in the stomach via her kindness with a stranger(Harper).
----
Always nice to see Anna using her smarts even in her shitty circumstances, she's broken physically but her mind is still sharp at least beyond her interactions with Poppy during her daydreams/breakdowns. I imagine Poppy is hiding away since this has no bearings on her titanesses thus no reason to intervene with Anna's suffering.

---
Holy fuckballs, there is a lot to unpack in this chapter piece...

Anna standing up for Molly was incredible even with their checkered past, Molly does seem like she is the least shitty of the foursome if she had a better up bringing/more supportive parents etc. It doesn't excuse what happened but explains it tremendously. For Anna to actually seemingly bond with her depending on the rest of the chapter speaks volumes for her compassion for Molly and Molly's potential goodness bleeding through the further we move on in the story.
----
Another one of Anna's lucid dreams, it seems to be bringing her back to her senses somewhat after her sleep deprivation broke her mind enough to seemingly show bond like traits with Molly. Not sure if she can fend off giant Poppy so easily but the size difference makes me think this is more serious than previous attempts at taking over.
Molly once again seems the most human of the four and also I kept expecting her to remind Anna to "don't freak out" but still there seems to be a lot more in common between them than we thought.
---
Ah, Harps.
Always there to look after and slightly annoy our fair heroine. Though it was nice to see the solidarity of the foursome by showing her happiness at Molly standing up for herself. Now if we could just get Naomi to be nicer to her sister.
---
Go Anna, still trying to help Molly despite all the trauma she's brought upon her in the past few months. If she gets out of this mess one day she'll definitely deserve some sort of award for her dedication to helping others despite insurmountable odds and inhuman conditions.
The sins of the mother rear their ugly head allowing us to end on a cliffhanger as poor Anna's emotions tear her apart. She is right to stand up for Molly to her parents but all the same she still hasn't taken their values and beliefs out of her. It might take time to truly purge Molly if they end up on that road but Anna is truly fighting an unwinnable battle as we close up shop.

---
The dream sequence was top notch as always, you always craft them with such happiness before the foreboding terror sets in. As for who is next I will take a shot and say Leah gets her moment in the sun.

Hey Adam,

I would say each of the FF's families are probably at least 35% more confident about obtaining Annabelle than they should be. Also about Anita; I think that's the dangerous thing about the BSA. Most of its members seem like normal, nice people...at first

---

I love a smart Shrinkee. I've been working on other stories, and your comment made me realize that most, if not all, of the protagonists have noticeably above average intelligence. I gotta stop this though, because it forces me to do things like spending an hour researching the history of Poland's market economy. 

I love reading about your imprinting theories, the answers are coming up really soon.

---

I gotta say, I usually think of a specific scene when I think of how to hit certain plot points for my outline, and the scene where Molly and Annabelle defend each other was definitely one of the first things I thought of. 

--

I'm glad you're digging the dreams. They're usually the longest scenes to write, because sometimes they're so nonsensical that I worry you guys might get lost. 

I'm glad you caught the panic attack lingo slipping in there. I wanted to show their similarities, and despite Molly's insistence, maybe Shrinkees and people without HDD are more alike than not?

--

I think the hardest part of the cage scenes in these FF's background chapters has been deciding which giantess gets screen time. I think Harper made the most sense in this chapter, because I always imagine her always having the CCTV footage of Annabelle's cage on in the background--or at least checking on it more frequently than the other giantesses. 

--

Annabelle's morality is a huge part of this story. I don't think the story would even be still going if Annabelle wasn't as virtuous as she was. That's why I established her moral nature early with the whole Carrie and the cherry jar situation. 

The giantesses and their own indoctrination is probably Annabelle's biggest obstacle. 

--

I'm glad you liked the dream scene. And I guess you'll see if you were right about Leah being next  :-)

--

Thanks again for the comments, Adamx. As always, you have some great insights. 

Okay wow. The Abbots are model parents all of a sudden. I mean not really, I already had noticed how good they were to Harper, and loving of her and supportive, but yikes, they really are the only ones of the bunch that don't treat their daughter like shit?Leah's dad has a weird thing going on with her, and Naomi's parents are seemingly strict and poor Molly has...oh god, I feel so bad for her. They are shit to her, they are shit to Anabelle, like I can't believe they made even the Abbot's treatment of Annabelle to look sort of nice. I see Molly's mom stroke a chord in people and I do see why. She sucks in the most close to home way to people who had never dealt with shrunk people but probably with overbearing, strict parents.

I'm worried for Molly and Anabelle and their mental state if they are both pushed so damn hard. This chapter was more about the parents than Molly and I'm seeing a trend. I do like that. Actually if I may be so bold, I would LOVE a prequel story with the parents as youngsters in college themselves and some new shrinkie or them creating their murderous evil group. I don't know why but the more stories about the parents's pasts I heard the more I want a story focused on them when they were all young. It would be tons of fun. But then again is my imagination going crazy xDDD

I'm worried that Molly being too submissive to stand up for herself or for Anabelle will hurt her chances of imprinting. Is a pity, I do love her but she needs to man up. Woman up. Idk.

Looking forward to the next one!!

I'm afraid Molly was my least favorite of the four. With Harper, you have the crazy-obsessive fangirl, Naomi, the blunt punk, and Leah, the domineering ruler-to-be. Molly was simply there. 

Now, she's gotten far more interesting, although the previous two chapters also did Harper favors as well. We see that the harsh dominance these girls force upon not just shrinkees, but other people as well, is the same kind a bully establishes over a social pariah. Attempting to create control over their life which none exists. If Annabelle can successfully alienate the four from their parents, she wins. But, in order to do so, she'll have to open her heart to them, and leave Poppy to the crows.

And boy, what a fun bunch these parents are. Mr. Gates seems to be pretty fun, even when he's asserting control. I'd go as far to call him a henpecked husband. And what a hen, and what a peck she has. I still think the mayor is going to be Anna's biggest threat, but Mrs. Gates is going to run her through the roughshod. 

Plz do not take my last a review to heart, that woman (refuse to call her a mother) really pissed me off, your writing is superb as ever, and u made a very real character there, I just absolutely hate her and I think she may be the single most hated character in this story except for maybe leahs father depending on how he is presented.  

I love the story and I will continue to read and love it.  I just realized my last review may be a little to harsh.

So I have had more thoughts and my first is is that i love your long chapters.  At this point it would be wierd if they were short so plz continue making them long.  

     NOw then, like i said I love what u did with Harper, u turned her from a nympho airhead bitch to an actual human being (whos still a bitch to any one she doesn't actually care about), She is intelligent , if not school smart, i do think she might be real world smart, she is cunning,  and she can be very sweet when she wants to be, that date she had with Annebell at the end was very sweet and caring.  So yea you did an amazing job with Harper and i cant wait to see the others. 

     So now about the imprinting i have reread that scene alot and the bear scene from the previous chapter and i am still not completely sure what the trigger is but i am not convicnced its the smell, or at least not the smell by itself.  There is something else going on there i am trying to figure it out, cause like she said she has dealt with there smells from pretty much the start. I did like that Annebell was still herself for the most part, but damn if all she can think is to plz her owner, than damn, thats why i am rooting for Annebell staying herself but still with one of the girls.

     Now the next girl will prob be Molly, and that should be interesting and fun,  Molly was the one who had the least interest in Annebell except as a pet ( her ideas were fun though, i loved the ice water dunking) but she has come around, but like Harper she has insecurites but unlike Harper Annebell already is aware of at least some of them, so she wont be surpised by them and there for she wont be as vulnerable to Molly i think as she ended up being to Harper. THis should be interesting.

     I am looking forward to both Naomi and Leah, I can't decide between the two who will be last, I agree with Mr suit that Leah likes the last word but so does Naomi, and while i am rooting for LEah, I have noticed that Naomi i think will suprise us, she has had in my opinion simultaneously the most important scene as far as imprinting goes and the least amount of screen time with Annebell, we have never had a real alone time with annebell and Naomi except for chapter 20 when Annebell made out with her after Bennet. I also think that she may be no where near as much a hardass nor a bitch as she acts.  I think she be very vulnerable when we get to her. She wont have really interacted with Annebell for weeks by that point and i think she will be very cleangy, and very affectionate.  She will also be fighting for Annebells attention from her sister, ( weather she wonts to admit it or not),  I like Nell but i am far more interested in the 4.  I also really want to see another vore scene by you, seriously u prob did the best vore scene i have ever read, it also helps that it was survivable by our protagonist.  So yea i am really looking forward to Naomis chapters.

     I am still very much a Leah fan and i cant wait for her chapter, she is going to be so freaking threatened by that point since she wont have really interacted with Annebell for weeks that yea she will be very dominating and in charge, and i cant wait to see those scenes. I really like when she put Annebell in the vase and shook it around, i liked how she said she likes to just stand above the shrunked and just totally dominate the poor bugs, ( sorry people).  I look forward to her chapter as well. 

     So yea see u in the next chapter.

I know someone said it already and I agree: the dream sequences in this chapter are amazing, and that is because they are ambiguous. They do not convey just a sense of fear and dread.

On one side, we have a portray of how Annabelle is seeing herself more and more like property of the F4 – and in doing so it makes sense she will start to feel attract for things as well – Harper’s feet and boobs – instead of the person - she can barely understand Harper is a person due to how big she becomes during her nightmare.

But then, we have the other side – the side of self-discovery – Annabelle apparently finding out she might like... feet... or boobs... but more feet kkkkkk. Anyway, it became a trigger for pleasure, it “felt right”, but also strange... different, something I can definitely relate to.

Harper is very secure about her sexuality and how others see her, so she is perfect to make Anna take a first step towards finding a sexuality of her own. On the other side, she is very insecure about how Poppy sees her – thinking of herself as dumb and less loved when compared to Nell.

Annabelle is surprised, since she never thought anyone was really paying attention to her – the complete opposite of the F4.

This two chapters with Harper are all about one side and the other, slowly giving glimpses of both – the psychological scars of Anna and her goddess, ultil they reach a climax where the captive wants her captor inside of her.

But, one question remains – for all the giantesses in Annabelle’s life: is it love? Would They just kill her if she wasn’t a type 0? Judging by Harper and Zoey obsessions even before shrinking, I’d say yes, Anna has charisma, she draws people, and they start loving her (even if in a very warped and messy way).

But for the tiny, it’s a question without answer, she will never be sure and she doesn’t see herself as worth, much less special. I am guessing this carisma is the base for her type 0 imprinting unique power.

Psychologically twisted, complicated and deep? Yes, and that is why I love this story in so many levels. Changes are happening, revelations on all sides, and, as I stated in other comments, I believe Nell and Leah will be very important in this process.

About Zoey... I can think of a couple of ways she might reappear, even as a pawn to Leah’s father,  after all Annabelle can “never hope to fight against Zoey”. But I don’t want to think too much.

Right now the spotlight is elsewhere. I stick with Nell on top, Leah and Naomi together in second place... But I don’t want to be unfair with Harper and Molly, They are both interesting and amazing characters. Obviously I want Naomi and Nell arc to begin, but I think Molly is the next one.

I am also curious to see how each giantess will react when it’s time to say goodbye to Anna. 

About Patreon, I never paid too much attention as I don’t have a lot of money, but I will try to help as I can and I am sure others would too.

Also, stop worring. It’s too late to change – if you start making shorter chapters now it will be too strange kkkkkkkkkkkk

As Always, thanks for sharing your writing and sorry for any misspelling. And sorry for taking so long to comment - work keeps getting in the way of everything and I end up writting late at night or in a hurry TT_TT

So you were right. This was amazing, truly amazing, really, I loved every second of it, I'm SO happy that my girl Harper got time to shine!!I'm so excited about this I could cry lol

Anabelle having an imprinting episode that wasn't an imprinting episode was amazing. Like, all the other times it was because Poppy possessed her, but this time it was Anabelle, being herself and utterly adoring Harper. It was a pity that the revelation took off from the fact that Harper was trying on her own way to build Anabelle's self esteem up. Harper has the capacity to being a loving woman, caring, thoughtful. She clearly cares about Anabelle and even enjoys talking to her more than she enjoys having sex with her! She also has insecurities, fears, she is a human being.

Anabelle is clearly struggling. She keeps reminding herself of the shrinkees Harper has killed, how she treats those she considers lower than herself, she is constantly reminding herself of those facts, because if she doesn't all she will be able to see are Harper's good traits and that would be terrible for her because then she would fall for Harper and her own values make her feel that is a bad thing to do, not to mention her not feeling deserving of love. Is a constant struggle and it was wonderfully represented.

My scales changed indeed. Now Anabelle and Leah are tight for spot 1, like, side to side. I do legit think Harper is the one Poppy would be the happiest with considering not only her but also her parents and home environment. But then again Goddess Leah is still strong in my heart.

I think next will be...Molly, probably. Step up the difficulty on emotional problems and whatnot I guess?I don't think it will be Leah because she is supreme and will most likely be last to have the last word as she usually likes to do. Naomi would be nicee too, though I'm not a Nell enthusiast like most others. She is nice and cute but not particularly unique to me.

Keep up the good work, I love it!!

Zoey will have her day, mousie hasn't gotten permission to escape just yet. Harper's athleticism does add a level of hotness too her beyond the lusty blonde tropes, her being able to fuck you up legit is pretty great.
-----
Harper is definitely a monster but I kind of agree with Anna here, there is really no need to be rude on Twitter or whatever it is. It does make me route for her more though knowing she's still keeping her morales despite all she's going through with the Fearsome Four. Seeing Harper's human side is warming much like seeing Molly's at times, still definite monsters but you can see there might be SOME good there if the upbringings were not so horrific.
-----
I'm actually shocked Harper given being the blonde rich girl Goddess HASN'T made Anna kiss her feet more often, it really seems like it'd be one of her go-to's to cement her status as above everyone else sans her fellow nightmare sisters. I do admit Poppy hyping Harper's feet is amazingly hot, I hope Anna does get herself some help one day but still hot.
For a moment there I thought Anna might actually be imprinting on Harper and all thanks to her tootsies but it appears she has came to her senses. Not sure where this goes for Anna but that's some dangerous waters she was treading there, a new side to her that she hasn't really shown before outside of Poppy taking over.
-----
Holy fucking hell the first part of the wedding nightmare was chefs kiss beautiful, basically a scenario I've thought of happening for years in one of these type stories or some variation of it. Anna might not be able to come back from this hole she's digging for herself, Harper may have finally won the psychopath lottery.
----
There's the horrifying nightmare of a woman we're used to seeing!

Though quick thinking by Anna to at least save somebody some great pain and suffering. Not sure it would've worked if the other three had been together but luckily they weren't for poor Kate.
Who knew enslaving a tiny person against her will was good for one's self confidence? Harper seems genuinely human here and Anna seems almost like she is learning towards her over the others a little. I can understand that as Harper seems like she's one of the lesser evils along with Molly at times but Harps has the hotness to carry her through the rough patches.
-----
Well damn, wasn't expecting all that from Anna but completely justified and if she had to pop off to one of them she picked possibly the safest one of the quartet to do so. Harper if she had even a bit of a less insane upbringing really seems like she'd be a quality person, her reasoning for doing what she's done to Anna is way off base of love but the more you learn about her the more you really feel she's never really felt actual love without being a pawn for somebody or something.
----
All the feels here...
It seems Anna's resolve is easily broken by our blonde titaness, the rage and vigor is still there but Harper seems the best at defusing it with her terrifyingly wholesome charms. Not sure how much it will matter later but if Anna's not careful Poppy just got her leg up in getting her point across so to speak.

----
As for who is next...

I'll say either Lea or Naomi, somebody more forceful and strict to counterbalance all the sugary sweetness of Harper's visit.

Author's Response:

I love how you're still hung up on Zoey (don't worry, I am too). She's 100% coming back. 

----

You'll see especially in the upcoming chapters that Annabelle's morals are pretty solid. She's gonna stick by her beliefs (to the frustration to many a ready no doubt)

----

I won't say anything about the feet/imprinting scene, but I do think it is hilarious how you are sympathetic to Annabelle's plight, and in the same sentence noting the spiciness of the scene. You make laugh every time. 

----

I'm glad you liked the dream sequence. It was 100% of the reason it took so long to upload this chapter. It was a scene I added in, because I wanted to convey Annabelle's psychological struggles (like you said)

--  

" Harps has the hotness to carry her through the rough patches" is my favorite part of this comment. 

----

Based on your sympathy for Harper, I'm interested to see how you respond to the most recent giantess within this arc.

---

As always, thanks for the comment AdamX. I always like to know what you're thinking.

LOVED THIS CHAPTER!   I SO want Poppy to end up with Harper! Their interactions are as sweet as they are wrong. Plus they are so hot!
