This story is amazing. Your writing really seems to cater to my interests. I love the balance of aware and unaware interaction. Cassie's personality going from caring to indifferent to cruel had me on a roller-coaster. I had to resist reading all the chapters in minutes. My only criticism is how quickly he gave into Jenny. The revenge chapters at the end were superb, the humilation in the toilet was perfect. You have easily become a favorite author. I appreciate you being active. Keep it up

Author's Response:

Well, I really try to work to ensure my stories are of the highest quality possible. I had a lot of comments about Cassie’s personality over the course of posting chapters, and had to make some changes towards the end. Jenny ended up being a late inclusion, but if I had it to do over again, I would’ve introduced her back towards the beginning of the story. I think that would’ve made the chemistry between her and Nick feel like it developed more naturally.

Overall, while I had some faults and bumps along the way, I’m happy with how the finished product turned out, so I’m glad you liked it.

Thanks for the kind words!

Nick, you're a dumbass. 

Also, I see Cassie took a play from the Shannon playbook. 



Author's Response:

Well, as I said in an earlier review response, Nick does tend to be very gullible, but Cassie is also very persuasive, and knows she can use her body to get Nick to do whatever she wants him to.

Also, yes, my giant plus-sized woman tend to become rather domineering as my stories progress. I don’t necessarily mean for them to turn out that way, they just sorta evolve into it.

Really loved the gentle footplay with Jenny in the dream! Glad he's finally coming to an understanding of what is causing the unintended shrinking,  and I really hope he ultimately chooses Jenny! Can't wait to see how it ends!



Author's Response:

I’m glad you liked it. I realized I wanted to address the reasons behind Nick’s shrinking spurts and his coming to terms with everything that’s happened, while still having something to satisfy the erotica fans. I actually had to do some extensive research to figure out exactly how and why Nick was having his shrinking spells, and the results will be in the next chapter.

Thanks for reading, and for the 5-star review!

I'm curious if he is going to meet the guy behind the book and how will the author react when he finds out that Nick was able to gain a ability from it.



Author's Response:

Honestly, that’s a path I hadn’t really considered. Certainly some food for thought.

Oh man. Things are about to get difficult for Nick now. 



Author's Response:

Yes, I think this makes for a good 2nd climax for the story. I’ve pretty much got the next chapter figured out and outlined; I just need to get it written now.

Having read the original ending, I may have argued and said that it isn't a bad closure completely but I get why other readers here may have felt soured on it. I may say personally that I like the whole " Too much of a good thing is a bad thing" sort of plot point. For Nick, it was learning to change size in the first place. 

I think extending Jenny and Nick's time together was well needed however since it did seem a bit abrupt that she would want to be with him after one encounter but I can't say it hasn't happened before in GTS story history. 

Honestly, you could make a small arc on the love crossroads that's in motion as of the ending of the latest chapter. 

 

P.S. I owed you a review of Babysitter Trouble and forgot how I was going to preceed with that. It might come back to me at some point. 



Author's Response:

Well, that is kind of the ending I was going for, but with Jenny coming into the picture and taking a much bigger role, and everyone’s vehement hatred for Cassie, there was a real push for something different. I think the new ending is going to involve Nick and Jenny trying to keep from being found out the next morning, and there will most definitely be some more action to finish out the last chapters.

I look forward to reading your review of Babysitter Trouble.

I also saw the last chapter but this review is still for the story as a whole as well as something to use to pass an idea along. Im a vore lover. I love vore and even though this story didnt have it until now, ive loved this story. That being said i hope you do bring the vire alternate ending in, but do wish it has most of a chapter dedicated to it. 

Ilove detailed vore stories and think it would be great if nicks potential final moments inside cassie or whomever could be heavily detailed on his journey inside: what its like, his thoughts and emotions and how he comes to terms with his fate and maybe even falling in love with cassie again as he spends time being slowly absorbed inside her. Maybe his time inside her is long and painful, but it creates a final intimacy for him.

 

Please consider this. ^^



Author's Response:

Oh, the original ending isn’t just “going away”: I’ll repost it with a few tweaks as an alternate ending at some future date, and I’ll certainly take your suggestion of a more detailed inside view/journey into Cassie into consideration.

I’m actually glad that you took the time to review the story as a whole, and I hope you review it again once the entire story and the alternative chapter(s) is(are) completed. I take it you liked this story slightly better than Babysitter Trouble, and hope that you check back for future stories.

Hi there, thank you for continuing to write this story. Obviously your characters have elicited passionate responses from some of your readers, and I just wanted to contribute my thoughts. Namely, about Cassie. 

 

You're obviously aware that her character is extremely unlikeable, both because of the many reviews and the fact that it is intentional. In your responses to reviews, you seem to focus on the “conditional love” that she shows Nick, but I think you should take it one step further and call her behavior what it is- abusive.


The mental abuse and manipulation is pretty evident. If she knows that Nick shrinking is uncontrollable and not him purposefully disregarding her wishes, but doesn’t care, that’s mentally abusive. Especially when the “punishment” is the cold shoulder, lack of affection, and general hostility. Even taking away the one thing that might stop the uncontrollable shrinking (the book), and thus her apparently unbearable stress of watching where she’s going, makes her either stupid or straight up abusive (or both).


Then, teased in chapter 12 and blatant in chapter 15, is the physical abuse. Taking advantage of an unbalanced power dynamic to intentionally cause your partner physical pain or displeasure is abusive, even if it’s “only” during heated moments. It seems like people moved on real quick from the fact that Cassie tried to seriously kill Nick. She threatened to kill him in ch 12, tried to gaslight him into thinking it wasn’t serious in 13, then actually tried to in 15. Even if she was facing an internal conflict, a serious part of her was willing to kill her partner. I wonder if she left that little detail out in her retellings to Jenny. Again, abusive.


I bring this up because it goes into why I feel so frustrated when reading this story. Maybe others feel similarly. Nobody in the story acknowledges that what she’s doing is screwed up. People had to come to the reviews to confirm that you realize how frustrating her character is, because the text itself honestly doesn’t imply that. That Nick is so desperate to get Cassie back, and both Cassie and Jenny downplaying how serious the issue between them is. Abusive characters getting away with being abusive, while acting morally superior about it, is extremely frustrating to experience as a reader.


Now, you’ve hinted at Cassie getting comeuppance, changing the ending based on the reviews, Nick ending up in a good place, etc. My only recommendation is to get there sooner than later lol, because this story can feel exhausting. I think the fact that people are so passionate and invested in this story is a testament to your writing, but the annoying characters distract from it in my opinion. I seriously hope that Cassie does not come out “on top” by the end, because that would be SO unsatisfying. Maybe it’s the point you’re trying to make, and if so that’s a valid one, BUT as a reader I wouldn’t be very happy about it lol.

 

Sorry for the long review, I figured I might as well get it off my chest, but I hope you found it somewhat helpful. I’m definitely looking forward to seeing where it goes from here, and I hope you’re staying safe in these difficult times.



Author's Response:

 I know people are irritated with Cassie‘s behavior, and yes, what she’s doing to Nick is definitely abuse—Both emotionally and physically. Despite the obviously unusual and stressful situation, she’s being irrational, unkind, uncaring, and downright cruel to Nick. In many other giant of stories that I’ve read, the writer wants you to know almost right away if a giantess is going to be cruel or gentle. I think it’s Cassie’s transition from kind and gentle, to cruel and unloving which makes her character so... well, let’s just say that you all love to hate her!

I know it seems like Cassie’s behavior just seems to get worse and worse, but I’m not trying to torture my readers. I know that sometimes my stories can just seem to be a spaghetti of scenarios, with one leading right into the next (and come on, this is erotic fiction, so that’s the point), but I also want them to be endearing and somewhat realistic.

 but I promise you, this torture won’t go on forever, we really are coming down to the last few chapters, and I think the next one will throw you for a loop, and will touch on a few things you mentioned above.

I can't wait to see what happens next. Maybe it's just me but it seems like Nick is rushing into this in a misguided attempt to win Cassie back over, I mean he's only just now figured out how to control his shrinking and hasn't really even practiced it extensively yet. So he has no idea if it will continue to work or not especially under stress. I'm actually hoping that a shrunken Nick gets to encounter a drunk Cassie as that could be pretty dangerous for him and lead to some interesting scenarios.

Part of me feels like Cassie would probably be happy to crush him and move on with her life after her reluctance to talk to him and then going out to bars. Really can't wait to see where you take things next. Is it still going to be an emotional rollercoaster like you mentioned before?



Author's Response:

It’s true, Nick may be rushing back into things, and getting caught up in his excitement, But it certainly wouldn’t be the first rushed decision he’s made when it comes to his marriage.  Besides, it actually set up the next chapter which, yes, it’s going to be the emotional roller coaster I promised (or at least, that’s what I hope). It’s Also going to be a very huge deviation from where I was initially taking the story, so I hope you enjoy it.

Great chapter! Nick wanted to get in shape, looks like he's about to have a nice sweaty workout with Cassie whether he wants to or not. It sure seems like her patience with Nick is wearing thin for a number of reasons so I can't wait to see how she'll react to his latest predicament and what punishment he'll endure during her workout and once she finally discovers him. Also, glad to see the booty action continue!



Author's Response:

Yeah, Nick’s about to get an up close and personal view of Cassie’s workout.

Thanks for considering the bath tub scene, and I look forward to more footplay (hopefully aware sole wrinkle interaction at really tiny sizes)!  Also can't wait to read the babysitter trouble giantess Shannon chapter.  Keep up the great work!



Author's Response:

So, I thought in depth about the bath tub scene, but I don’t think it really fits in this story as it’s going. HOWEVER, you have inspired me to add it to one of my other upcoming stories, and I think it fits WAY better there, so thanks for the suggestion!

I can tell you that I have been giving the Shannon chapter some more thought. I haven’t finished the outline yet, but once I do, and have a good idea about where I’m taking that chapter, I will get it written.

This story is AMAZING 


Right off the bat, you totally get the feeling that Cassie and Nick are a sweet, loving, passionate young married couple whose interactions are the perfect balance of fluff and smut. 

 

I love your descriptions of Cassie’s body, and I love how on board she is to play along with Nick’s fantasies. I love how she takes time to hold him in her hands and kiss him all over his body before letting him pleasure her.



Author's Response:

Well, welcome to the story. You certainly have been busy writing reviews, so I’ll respond to each of them separately:

First, although I know that some people love the domineering, evil giantess interactions in their stories (me included), I wanted to write in some gentle giantess interactions where the giantess is loving and playful, though she may not know her own strength, which is what this story is partly built around. I think it makes the characters and the events seem more realistic. Cassie would never do anything to intentionally hurt Nick, but if she doesn’t know she’s being too playful... I don’t know, I just find that really sexy.

I'm really enjoying this so far! I thoroughly enjoyed your other husband-wife story so I can't wait to see where this one goes, especially when the power balance between the two begins to shift. It'll be interesting to see if Cassie remains mostly playful or if she becomes more dominant as time goes on.



Author's Response:

     Well, I’m glad you’re enjoying it! I do like the husband and wife dynamic, as it can be taken in several directions. I certainly don’t want to spoil anything, but what I CAN tell you is that Cassie and Nick love each other, and that she would never do anything to intentionally hurt him; although, there is certainly the possibility that she might become a little TOO playful. 

Anyway, thanks for the review.

Interest take on shrink method.  Definately how real people would get themsleves in trouble.



Author's Response:

I actually thought long and hard about if this particular shrinking method would work in the type of story I’m writing, but I think I’ve found a narrative that will make it work while still setting up the scenes I want. I hope you like the finished product.
