@giantmaneddie He says he has up to 30 episodes planned, and I fully expect he will amply cover microphilia before he’s done.

The stiff delivery seems to be an artifact of it being a monologue rather than a dialogue. I don’t know if he has any plans to alter that.

@SmolChlo
Huh. That makes me wonder what it is for the big in unaware phantasies; doing bad things without feeling guilty about it, then?

Olo

@i-am-insane There are not a few biggo-identifying folks who indeed enjoy leaving a guilt-free swath of destruction through populated areas.

@i-am-insane I’ve also heard folks refer to just the sheer scale and power - that they’d be able to dominate someone so completely without trying, or even realizing that the person’s there.

Olo

@littlest-lily This is how I’ve identified another “axis” for categorizing size fantasies. Unaware, giant or tiny, falls on the “Indifferent” end of the spectrum, where people of a different size are relatively anonymous and undifferentiated, and the protagonist is usually only talking to themselves. The other end of the spectrum is “Intimate,” where who the differently-sized people are matters greatly.

@i-am-insane maybe it’s because they simply don’t have to care about the tinies they’ve just carelessly trampled over? It’s not like someone bigger and stronger than them is going to hold them accountable. They’re aware that they have reached a powerful God-like status, It might even make them feel good knowing that their presence is such an unstoppable force. Maybe they get off knowing they can wipe out hundreds of little lives by simply walking through a minuscule town.
As a Giant would you feel guilty if you realized that you accidentally destroyed an entire town while on a walk?

I get that for the giant, the sheer power of it, and the ease, is a factor, but that’s the same for SW; how helpless she is, that she can’t even get acknowledgement from the guy thundering towards her.

The Big G

Listen finally to the latest ep this morning at work fun fact I work in hospitality and the looks you get in the kitchen from people staying at the place when the erotic talk starts up on the podcast is priceless. Also this ep was to my mind about people’s fears of ether the unknown outside the fetish where the ones in the know fear others judging them.

@Olo Going from one end of this spectrum to the other is a big part of the fun too. I prefer scenarios where the giant eventually becomes aware of the situation, as their reaction is very exciting to me. Maybe it awakens something in them and they adopt that crueler personality, or maybe they’re on the gentler side and do everything in their power to comfort the little lady. Sort of in the same vein as BDSM aftercare.

@blehb YESYESYESYES. That’s all I write about. G/T with undertones of S&M, BDSM, and D/S

@nephilim They tend to crossover a lot for me personally.

i am insane

@nephilim
They’re fundamentally linked, in my mind: you can’t really have a size story that doesn’t at least consider the dynamics, and that dynamic is something I focus on a lot; what a character can do to another, what a character can allow the other(s) to do…

nephilim

@i-am-insane Yes all about it. Even some oblique vore

Olo

Episode 004 just dropped.

Abodigen : “I’m not getting off to physics and engineering!”

Me : “Noooo let’s discuss tiny toilets, and plumbing, the Square-Cube Law, and the effects of gravity on falling tiny bodies!!!”

Very much GTS focused again but I can relate to what he said about the beauty of vulnerability, in a context of immense mutual trust :

“The giant in this scenario finds their frailty beautiful, they’re proud to protect and hold this little person.”
