I guess I’m still trying to grasp what people likes in SW here mostly.
We’re not a monolith; some like violent giant bastards, some don’t (and for some of us the mood comes and goes). Just be sure to tag your stuff accurately and thoroughly.
@littlest-lily I’d love to know more about Blue’s past. It seems like she’s always been small, implying that she was bred for this role. Is she as chronologically old as she appears? Did she have a tiny childhood before she was sold? Did she ever have a choice about her fate?
@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. 
@littlest-lily Responsible owners train their pets and condition them to their environment.
@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.
@littlest-lily Yup, it’s time to meet more of Aiden’s social circle (since Evie’s has quite literally shrunk out of sight).

@green I’m definitely intrigued! Here’s wondering if that borderline magical power of hers will still work in the same way…
It will, but only on rodents. 
@mrgoblinging7 Mindless is no fun. Even if you’re not planning on swallowing or ingesting them, they should at least fear that possibility. 
@littlest-lily But think of the revenge they could wreak, haunting first dates and job interviews!
