@protect-tinies Plot twist : nobody in the world calls them “pineapples” but you anglo-saxon degenerates /j

That looming shadow in the first image

Thanks, I think it turned out well! I wanted to keep it a first person POV (for… reasons) and also to keep the mystery on the identity of the one who shrank her.

And now she’s even cuuuuuutteeerrrrrrrrr~

Yessss, she was a perfect fit for my Oath of Devotion pally, she even ticked my “I-Can-Fix-Her” box .

Not a site per se, but some of Lee’s short SW stories are amongst my favourite :

@blehb Without going full mean giant mode, you can have gentle yet teasing and playful? What about if he knows about her triggers and he simply can’t resist getting her to shrink in the most inopportune of places and time? I admit it would be hard to resist, and even better if she’s freaking out about it (while secretly enjoying it)

LOL at her shrinking randomly and the poor the giant going “WTF NOT AGAIN!” and getting his magnifying glass

@littlest-lily Lukas’ self-control is next-level. Truly an inspiration for exemplary behavior for the gentle giants out there.

@coolguy69 Oh I’m not really too hung up on my physical appearance. It’s more a realistic take on what I have (and have not) to offer.

Growing older well - uh, this is off topic but - of course there’s the physical aspect : you’re not as much in shape in your 40s than in your early 20s. You need more regular visits to the doctor’s office, and medical tests. You feel signs that some parts of your body are raising the white flag.

But that’s not what scares me. I’ve recently lived through the pain of losing a parent to dementia. I would not wish it on even the most foul human being, yet it happened to the kindest, most gentle soul that ever was. She went away slowly, forgetting everything about her life, about the people she loved, and it took years for her suffering to end.

I’m not scared of death, but this is worse. That will not be my fate.

@Olo The Aints? No way, I’m a Miami Dolphins fan for life (I like pain ).

@Olo Yeah normie literature in French often refers to tiny/shrunken women as “naine”, the same term as women with dwarfism. I never liked that personally, I much prefer “lilliputienne”.

@blehb Armour can be fun to take off from tinies, in a weird sensual way. It’s hard to explain but removing soft clothes is one thing, but removing heavy ceramite armor pieces? A bit of effort to get to my prize

Sadly this isn’t a mini painted for tabletop gaming (those are much smaller, 1:48 scale), it’s a miniature “doll” for my collection. Yeah, I know, I have dolls, judge me all you want hehe

I don’t have Battle Sisters in my armies but Saint Celestine calls to my heretics-purging, righteous-fury-Paladin inclinations. Also, bonus points if you can guess why I love the Adeptus Sororitas so much? Here’s a clue:

Call me old fashioned, but Shrink Rays all the way! Potions will do too, in a high fantasy setting.

I would also add natural/innate shrinking abilities. Either fully controlled, ie. they can change size at will without too much downside or cooldown. Or, the ability isn’t under the person’s control and they shrink either randomly(!) or under some external factors (emotions, getting wet/hot/cold, etc)

I know this movie has a great hologram scene for GTS fans , but upon rewatch, I’ve noticed my compatriot Denis Villeneuve has slipped an interesting setting in the JOI software, first on top of the list :

I wonder how low that setting can go? 30? 15? 5? And with the projector he gifts her, that could open up possibilities for a tiny SW hologram following you around. I like it!

J’aime vraiment trop cette scène, je ne sais pas pourquoi, mais elle me touche profondément :

@blehb I come from Space Hulk which is a really frustrating fun game that dates back to before Games Workshop got greedy. Armoured marines with angelic names purging heretics called to me hehe.

Some artists are modding their Phicen dolls, some look really life-like (the default heads are uncanny-valley territory). I’m really curious about the “skin” feel. I’ve seen people use them for all sorts of… things. Personally, at that price point I’d be VERY careful with what I do to my dolls, hehe (that’s kinda meta, I wouldn’t want to break my SW either).

@i-am-insane said in What are your favorite clothing items for giants/tinies?:

I’ll be honest, I’ve been thinking about trying my hand with WH40K miniatures.

Sisters of Battle and Astartes are both solid choices. I’d say the Astartes are a bit more beginner-friendly in terms of rules. Just stay away from AdMech. If you’re unsure about the game and maybe want to test it before diving in fully, I’ve heard great things about the starter set:

Or if you have friends that can show you how to play, that’s even better. Oh, and get ready to spend quite a few $$$

@blehb said in Shrinking Abilities:

either love the shrinking process or love the interactions afterward

They’ve always been equally important to me. Give me a good, long, multi-stage shrinking with different interactions at each height and I’m in heaven.

The 7th Voyage of Sinbad

Oh yeah that smoke, with her arm getting smaller and smaller. We’re never getting another movie like this ever, right?

Well is was a rather… eventful weekend over at OpenAI HQ, if you’ve seen the news/drama.

On my side, I did report some of my innocuous prompts as false positives to the powers that be. I didn’t receive anything else since then, but instead of the big bad email I’m getting those, which are friendlier I guess(?) :

No, ChatGPT, I don’t think I will. Oh well, I can work with that (and around that of course).
