I wasn’t aware that love triangles had fallen into disfavor, but I’m notoriously out of touch with current trends.
In my experience, love triangles are a common development in size fantasy with creators who feel they have worn out standard pairings and want to mix things up. It often produces gratifying results.
I, for one, would have endless fun with two tiny ladies who were jealous of each other and fought to be considered my favorite.
@littlest-lily Yup, sympathy for the doggo (and the family) is there to heighten the villainy. And if she is rescued but restoration is impossible, she’ll have a companion. 
@i-am-insane Okay, now that Shrek has been invoked twice, I have to link to my first male giant story, Accomodations, where one reader compared my protagonist to Shrek. It’s a first-person narrative from the giant’s perspective, so I don’t actually physically describe him anywhere, so I suppose the likeness must be in his personality.
As a long-time sifter of mainstream size content, I suppose a large part of the frustration with ugly/mean giants is that they immediately signal to the audience that they should in no way expect the giant(s) to be involved in any sexytimes or even romantic attraction. In fact, they seem to deliberately mock the idea that the audience might have such an expectation.
Traditionally, ogres eat people, and I don’t recall that ever coming up in the Shrek movies (I suppose you can see my personal frustration here).
Finally, Fiona was way hotter as an ogress. They didn’t even try to make her scary.
@The-Big-G Yeah, Aborigen discussed that one too on his Substack. All F/m again. I went into a bit of rant in the comments.
