@tiny-ivy I lost my job three months into COVID, and I’ve been temping and interviewing ever since. Eerily like contracting a shrinking plague.

When I first discovered Size Tumblr (RIP) back in 2015, one of the stumbling blocks for me was how much size art was actually repurposed fan art, usually of characters from some anime or video game with which I was unfamiliar. Here I was, looking for anonymous size interaction, and I was confronted with names and worlds with seemingly unrelated backstories. Often as not, the characters were from universes where size differential was unknown or even improper to the genre. But the artist (or their followers) really liked those characters (or the show/game) and saw no reason not to make one of them giant or tiny and see what they looked like.

Eventually I determined that many artists start out copying others’ characters and styles before creating their own work (that was when I learned that “OC” stands for Original Character), so if they had a size kink it was natural that they would experiment with established characters first before creating their own original giants and tinies. It all clicked for me when I realized it was the graphical equivalent of fanfiction.

It still kind of irks me when characters from a “normie” universe are suddenly thrust into a size encounter. Realistically such characters would focus entirely trying to explain on the supernatural size phenomenon rather than have the sizey sexytimes the fanartist might be hoping for. I have an easier time when the genre already allows for magic or fantastic technology, so I have some idea of how those characters will react to size differential (hopefully in a pervy way). It’s a lot easier to swallow Hermione fudging a spell or a malfunctioning transporter than, say, Dr. House contracting a rare shrinking disease.

Anyway, in Decmber 2018 Tumblwintr blew, sharply curtailing the amount of size-crossover fanart to which I was exposed. Partly in tribute to what I learned from my Tumblr experience (but mostly in response to a prompt from @MightyTinyGiant), I composed Played, my Firefly fanfiction. It starts out F/m (Saffron/Mal), but it’s mostly F/f (Inara/Saffron).

@kisupure Still can’t get over “NO STEP”.

@sloppy_amy Get in line.

@i-am-insane Our ancestors have been eating each other for hundreds of millions of years. It’s the oldest form of domination on the planet.

@foreverlurk I was just scrolling through this channel last night. An impressive collection, including a couple I hadn’t seen before.

@size_master I can attest it was much easier to collect shrunken pets back then when there weren’t cameras everywhere.

@tiny-ivy Which is more fun, destroying their old faith or demanding it for yourself?

@foreverlurk The animated Barbies, Magic 5, that Israeli clip, and frankly most of the anime.

@kisupure Those arms…

@kisupure I remain deeply impressed by your ability to make the environment so compelling, rising above and rendering trivial the human-nak conflict. I also really enjoy how the hardship afflicts Gray and Rice differently.

Rice, and all the sons of the Algorithm, were an attempt at something new, and it was that newness that drew her to him.

This reminds me of a path-not-taken by the recent iteration of Battlestar Galactica. The Cylons are a very young civilization, and they look at humans with a weird mix of arrogance and deep insecurity. This story’s tropes encourage Rice to (seem to) have boundless confidence, and his knowledge of how the corpsmen are being farmed by the Naks keeps him from speaking freely around Gray, but he has to be aware of how precarious the whole setup is, and you have deftly hinted at that.

Of course, now I want to know how the new sentinel also knows the corpsmen by name. Has Rice been gossiping?

@hentaihunter1 With two of them, you could make an instructive example of one.

Linka and Wheeler are size relationship goals.

I’ve heard more than one M/f fan cite that episode as a formative experience. Ripping off her clothes once she’s in your pocket is such a boss move.
