@littlest-lily It’s always frustrating to watch two people have an unnecessary fight because one or both of them misinterprets something the other has said or done. That wasn’t the case here. Some fights are necessary.

@smolchlo Make out or takeout?

@littlest-lily

@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.

@smolchlo Calm down and rub some of that peanut sauce on your legs.

@littlest-lily Very, very relieved to see that Evie has had some kind of catharsis, and her genuine laughter is a balm.

Unlike Aiden, I don’t have a long friendship history with Diego, so I’m still a bit growly. Particularly calling Evie “Shrimp” without first asking for her permission.

Who wouldn’t like to be examined by a giant doctor? I’d subscribe to that ASMR channel.

“Kaiju wrestling” sounds like a specific fetish unto itself.

@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.

@giant-me I’m not surprised.

@tiny-ivy Got a heavy 80s AIDS scare from this one.

Ironically, I find that size-differential tends to…loosen one’s gender preferences, particularly for the larger party. From my SM experiences I know that a tiny man falling into the clutches of a dude like Sean might result in “situational homosexuality.” I have to assume that a “straight” giantess would be tempted to take similar liberties with a shrunken women.

Your scenario makes this even more complicated because even admitting same-sex attraction to yourself seems to make one vulnerable to shrinking. Then shits like Sean layer on their twisted religious guilt to keep everyone in the closet (or, in this case, cupboard).

@SmolChlo

@smolchlo The laundry hamper’s fine, though, right?

@tiny-ivy said:

I personally think it’s acting more like a slow-spreading curse than like a virus, based on that. I think the virus is the news media’s explanation of a mysterious phenom.

I was definitely leaning toward this interpretation. That it seems to propagate intolerance of queerness makes it all the more oppressive.

It’s a common trope for homophobes like Sean to decide to punish any gay man that falls into their clutches by raping them. Since he thought he was holding two shrunken gay men, I half-expected him to take them into the bathroom and jack off with/onto them. Only his fear of the “virus” stopped him.

@littlest-lily But think of the revenge they could wreak, haunting first dates and job interviews!

@smolchlo I might be blinded by possession and lust, but there’s no way I’m letting her livestream.
