@Olo Ahhhh someone make this app stat

A G/t… dating app?! Ultra niche, but why I never thought of that!?! It doesn’t already exist, right…?

foreverlurks dropping his 19 other unfinished side projects to code Gullivr…

@jody so I gotta ask… Zildjian, Sabian or Paiste?

Played drums in an indie band in my early 20s, couple albums, couple tours. Crazy but fun times.

Welcome!

Lots of interesting thoughts, Olo. I think mine intersects with Lily’s a lot, in the sense that while violence is not really my thing, I would never judge you based on your fantasies. I sincerely hope that, whenever I express my own personal preferences for the gentler side of things, I don’t come across as judging or looking down upon those that don’t share my tastes.

I was fortunate enough to be older than most here when I first got access to the internet, so I wasn’t that shocked when first exposed to violent SW fiction and pictures. I must admit that hurting or killing in the context of shrinking had never even crossed my mind at that point. It’s part of those little details in size fiction that took me a while to discover, like for instance the prevalence of fear as being the foremost sought after emotion from the tiny/SW’s perspective. I know it’s obvious but what I personally seek with the shrinking lies first and foremost in the newfound vulnerability of the shrunken woman. The fear, as I see it, is a byproduct of that loss of power, but not THE thing I’m explicitly looking for. I’m almost like a blissfully unaware giant that has no clue of the utter terror he’s inflicting on his shrunken victim. Does that make any sense?

It is not unreasonable, therefore, to be concerned about how expressions of fetish desires might be (mis)interpreted by people unfamiliar with the tropes and conventions of certain fetishes.

We had a case very similar to Gilberto Valle here in Quebec with a horror writer for a book he published in 2017. In that story, there was an incest/rape scene involving a minor - someone reported that to police, and he was accused of producing child pornography. He was later found not guilty but not before his entire life had been destroyed.

I don’t know where modern day psychology stands on all this. I’ve seen their takes on “viDeO gAmEs mAkE yOu viOleNt!!” and I’m not sure we’re in the clear. I’m old enough to remember the D&D scare in the 90s, when people thought playing that game made us satanic worshippers or something. I shudder to think what some experts would say if they were exposed to size fiction.

PS: J’aime beaucoup le titre de votre article. Very clever.

@SmolChlo said in Muse:

@foreverlurk She starts to notice his growing obsession and is concerned that her visits are going to turn into a permanent stay

Oh, you mean she willingly shrunk down to be his model for that session (purely for, er, artistic reasons!), but maybe now he doesn’t want to restore her to normal?

I didn’t even notice the AI tag at the bottom!

Yeah, well that’s exactly my point, it should be more obvious in the UI.

@miss-lillipants said in Giant knight thoughts:

@foreverlurk it is a cool 18 degrees C here and I am FUCKING SWEATING. I love these! Thank you! God they’re so dashing…and so gentle (mostly)

hahaha, you should see me smiling… it’s -5 here but it warms my heart that you enjoyed them! I generated some of those based on your own words. If you give me permission, I would like to publish them (giving you credit for the prompts, of course!).

btw if that’s of any interest to anyone, I also generated some (mostly-)non-sizey D&D pally stuff (warning : some blood & death):

@The-Big-G said in Depression and Size Kink:

Dose a day go by that I wouldn’t give up everything to spend five minutes with a tiny woman even if we just chatted as I admired her

“Chatting as I admired her” yes, this, exactly this. I think I used these same words a few times. Is it too much to ask?

And thanks, it’s always nice to know I’m not alone.

@SmolChlo Is this a choose-your-own-adventure thread? In that case, I’d go with option #2, please.

Although, he does look like a true gentleman from a bygone era, and the way they look at each other tells me it’s a relationship built on trust, making the first option way more likely (and the second option even… better worse?)

@i-am-insane said in Go-to sizey daydream?:

On my part, I’ve also found that a really small blanket, bunched up, will make a ‘shape’ smaller than a pillow, and somewhat more human shaped and human feeling.

Heyyy, I did the same… I’d lie down on my side and just pretend what was in front of me wasn’t a bunched blanket but :

@Olo Please let me know if your research on, um, silicone ever turn something up!

@i-am-insane Lots of interesting things to ponder. You know, maybe I make it sound like it’s purely sexual thing - it’s really not. Most of what I wrote would still apply in a platonic relationship (side note - sorry if the nuances of aromantics/asexuals are lost on me, I need to read more on the topic!). There are so many reasons I love this fantasy that involves no sex at all.

As for the therapist, I’m comfortable enough but I haven’t had much experience to judge. I’m just not a people’s person, so if I feel at ease with her after a few sessions, for me it’s a very positive sign. I hope so.

@Olo I can change the angles, lenses and focus, but even keeping the same prompt (and seed) there’s no way it’s going to have the same details in all the angles.

That’s a job better suited for 3D modeling software.

@Olo They’re almost always plastic. The only silicon model I’m aware that comes in 1/12 scale (a bit under 6 inches) are the Phicen/TBLeague ones, but they’re way more expensive. I also really hate their default robotic anime look, but at least you can sweap their heads. There’s a seamless model that looks pretty nice:

(Sorry again to derail the thread, seems like it’s my speciality)

@Miri I know it’s going to take some time, I’ve no illusions. I never talked about this fantasy to anyone in real life, so even that first step is part of the process, getting over my self-consciousness and shame. I’m always jealous of how some people in the community can be so open about it.

Takes me a while to open up, even in such a safe space. Wish me good luck for the next session.

@SmolChlo hehe, a few scene from this anime are stored in my long term memory, like the Kagome hand held, or this one :

“Try WHAT !?”

@SmolChlo said in Watching Others Watch Size:

I truly get so much enjoyment out of their facial expressions or the way their eyes dilate… like hmmm what are you think about ¿

Well you would have a field day with me, telling me something like this!

Teach me the ways of the extrovert, tiny woman, I beseech thee!

@i-am-insane said in Depression and Size Kink:

The relationship itself has a sort of expectation, even if it’s unstated, that at some point you will talk about this kind of thing, to be open and honest.

What you wrote is so very true, and yet that’s something I still struggle with. I have a hard time opening up and trusting, I always focus on the negative outcomes of any situations, and it’s very hard for me to allow myself to be vulnerable with someone. Admitting this kink is then basically impossible.

A long road ahead for me.
