One curriou question. In the begining of this chapter Julie says “Sushi? You didn’t get me any, did you? Because you know I that stuff.” It would seem a word is missing which would indicate that she loves or hates sushi. I'm curriou what that word is. Again loving this story, sucks that it's already ending and that I'm showing up to the party so late lol. 



Author's Response:

Good question. The fact that I left the word completely out tells me that I was probably contemplating the same thing, and that I eventually got distracted and didn't actually specify whether the word would be "love" or "hate." Therefore, I defer to the reader. Put in there whatever you like!

Thanks for the review; glad you like the story!

Only 5 or 6 more chapters? That's no fun. These characters are amazingly well writen and it seems way to soon to say good bye to them. As for being mean about keeping the title character a secret and keeping us guessing, I don't think it's mean at all. It's one of the big hooks of the story. It's fun to be kept guessing. Especialy when the characters feel so real and the world they inhabit is so expertly crafted for the reader. I should add that you are doing an awesome job at keeping the fear alive. The fear of what will happen when rob receives his placement and is taken away from his best friends. Should he end up with a stranger, I can't imagine anyone taking as good a care of him as his friends do. Primarily because all they would see is his size and figure he must be an aweful human being.

Can't wait for the next chapter! (Even if it does bring us closer to the end)



Author's Response:

There's always the possibility they can come up again later ^^ 

But as far as Rob goes, at least in this portion of his life, it's nearing the end. Though if I'm being honest five chapters is probably not happening haha. At a minimum six. Probably more.

Hmmm you're still taking bets, yet the story is still implying that he's off to england. Does that mean there is still hope that he wont? My vote is still for Jaz assuming he stays

I'm usualy more interested in shrinking stories over giantess stories, but I gotta say this story had me hooked. You do such an awesome job at creating very real and fleashed out charaters, that story preferance fall to side and you just find your self sucked into the story.

This story definitely has a different feel than most stories I'm use to reading. By that I mean you as the reader are not in any one characters head. Even without that though I feel like I know  Howards viewpoint and thoughts on TSA and how it is being implemented. His small comments / responces to the actions or statements of those he interviews say alot. Can't wait for the next chapter.



Author's Response:

Thanks for reading! Glad you're enjoying it. My goal was definitely to get that distanced feeling from any one character's perspective.

Just finished re-reading this story, gotta say it still stands out as one of my all time favorits. Not just as a gts story, but as a story period. The charaters and emotions that they go through feel very real, maybe thats why I connect with them so well.

He told her what he did durring the day, does that mean he told her about exploring her sneakers? Possible solution to saving your stories but only having s hared computer, you could save your stories to a usb flash drive. Loving the story so far, can't wait for the next chapter

Even though I generally don't like final chapters because they usualy mean saying goodbye to the charaters and the story, I really liked this one. Endings can make or break a story and therfore can be the hardest part of the story to write. You've managed to write a really well writen and satisfying ending. I would love to keep reading this story and see where these charaters go, yet at the same time I'm happy with how this story has ended.I gotta say you have a very good taste in music. The cover of Simple Man by Shinedown is an awesome song. I've said it before and I'll say it again. You're not just a great writer of gts stories, you're over all a great writer period. Great ending to what is hands down one of my favorit stories. Can't wait for your next story.

In contrast to what I see in other reviews, I think you did an amazing job at forshadowing his depression. Granted I was reading it as more of a Manic-Major Depression illness. Your hints were no more or no less subtle than the hints you would get from a real person suffering from depression. Maybe that's why others have had a hard time picking up on the hints. Unless you've had depression or known someone who has0 or simply studied it, it can be incredibly hard for someone to notice the signs. And like I said before, you really are an amazing writer. You have the tallent to be getting paid to write. Hell your stories are so good I'd even recomend them to friends who aren't into the gts thing and have no doubt they'd still enjoy them. 



Author's Response:

Thank you so much for your reviews, but I must be honest. My whole style of writing is one big rip off of Jim Butcher, my favorite author. At least I used his style to tell this story.

 

But thank you especially for understanding the subtle hints for Peter's depression. I do not have it myself but I'm very close to a friend who lives with it. On first meeting them you'd never be able to tell. So I put more thought and care into writing out a depressed character than I have with any character before.

Gotta say I liked this chapter a lot more than the last one. I'm totally on board with magic as the root cause. The reason I would rank the last chapter lower is because it seemed out of place in relation to your other chapters. It almost felt like it answered too many questions to quickly. One of the reasons I've enjoyed this story so much is how every time we learn something minor we also are faced with more questions. It's the constant curriousity and the charaters who feel like real people that sucks you in. 

The other reason why I'd rank this chapter higher is because it's dealing with some really major issues and you do a great job of giving a glimps of what it's like to deal with major depression. Both for the patient and those around them.

And what do you mean cheesy story lol? This has been my favorit story on this site since you started posting it. One chapter is too soon to be saying goodbye to these charaters lol. If there is only one more chapter though, i can't wait to read your next story.  



Author's Response:

I guess I tried to emulate Robert Jordan. If you've ever read The Wheel of Time series Jordan amassed a dozen new questions for every one answer. But towards the end of the fourteen book series, maybe the tenth or eleventh book Brandon Sanderson (the author who took over after Jordan's death) did the exact opposite. And he did that because that's what Jordan wanted to happen. He created an entire room of maps and notes for how he wanted the series to be finished. So yeah, that's what I tried to do myself.

 

And thank you for taking notice of the way I addressed depression. I do not suffer from it but a very close friend of mine does. I wanted to really show what it's like, invisible. People go out of their way to hide depression so I tried my best to be subtle yet honest. 

My next story might not be up for a while though. It's going to be the sequel to Who's Really The Bigger Person Here. And I'm going to take time to create a much bigger plot (no pun intended)

Another great chapter. And yea you'll get no complaints from me that it was up sooner than later. I think this is my favorit story at the moment. As always, looking forward to the next one :)



Author's Response:

Well then I'll have to take my time with these next few chapters. Some heavy stuff is about to go happen and I want to do it as best as I can.

 

Hey, with all of the kind words you guys have been saying you deserve a story as good as I can try and write.

Hmmm.. Excelent chapter and you got me thinking. Actualy a few things that Peter has said, thought and done have me thinking. I'm starting to wonder if Peter has a Manic-Depressive Illness (aka Bipolar Disorder). In an early chapter Peter refers to hitting his first wall. He talks as though he is on a medication but due to his current situation is now without it (but never flat out says medication I'll admit). In another chapter Peter mentions that he is keeping an even bigger secret from Emily and is afraid of how she would react to learning it. On multiple occasions Peter has shown him self to act impulsively and maybe even recklessly at times. He seems like a very active and creative person. He generaly is calm and collected but can get aggitated and irritable. 

Since fighting the spider however he seems like a slightly different Peter. Which is understandable given the enormous stress he was under and his lack of sleep as a result. He seems more quiet, reserved and maybe a little anti-social. He also doesn't seem to enjoy things he would normaly enjoy (painting Emily's toe nails). Again understandable and really not that different. Not until he take offence to the prank with the spider and Emily saying "small thing" anyway. From there you see a major mood change in him and see him bottle up his emotions until it all comes out in a big explosion. Durring his explosion his thoughts express anger, guilt sadness, sellf loathing, loneiness, hopelessness and ultimately morbid sucicidal thoughts that lead to a suicide atempt. 

I say attempt because you say this isn't the end and I trust you.  So yea this is what this chapter has got me thinking about. To be honest when reading his thoughts in this chapter I thought that Peter was having auditory hallucinations. Assuming Peter does have a Manic-Depressive Illness and did have a major depressive episode, I would assume it was brought on by the stress with the spider and his lack of sleep. 

All that being said I could totaly be way off base with all of this and am simply way over analyzing all of this. Regardless as to wether or not I am right or not, it once again goes to show  how gifted and tallented you are as a writer. You truely have a gift at writing charaters who don't feel like characters in a story, but feel like real people. 

As always, looking forward to your next chapter :)
