Anna deserves some massive credit for still fighting for other people given all she was up against in this hellscape. You really feel for her trying to balance so much on her plate whilst keeping her friends safe and placating the whims of four titanic brats all at the same time.

----
Steven seems like he would've been a great therapist if this whole shrinking thing did not happen to him. He got Anna to reveal some of her deepest traumas just by conversing with her during their overnights. I do kind of understand the fear shrinkies would have of not wanting to bring kids into this kind of world...we're witness why that makes sense with every chapter you write to be fair.
Poppy really is pushing hard for the Goddesses it would seem, she must be high into massive terroristic college girls...I sort of don't blame her.

-----
Anna went full Russian sleeper agent it seems, Poppy seems to have Jason Voorhees levels of focus and determination when eliminating her -obstacles- in lew of getting poor Anna to surrender her humanity. Still Anna made a lot of progress in this chapter, she got a little sidetracked by Poppy but she is at least trending towards a sliver of hope that even if she doesn't escape she can at least not lose her humanity.

Author's Response:

Hey Adam,

Right? Annabelle is definitely one of the more selfless characters I've written.

--

Steven does seem to be adapt at getting Annabelle to open up. And Poppy is probably about as obsessed with the giantesses as they are with her,


--

Ha! Annabelle definitely needs to watch out for Poppy. They both want her body, but there's only room enough for one of them. I also think Annabelle's humanity is the core of this story, It's kind of the flickering candlelight in the dark chaotic storm that is the giantesses.

Hmmm well I am sorry I are sick plz get better soon. Well none of this bodes well. I can’t wait until next chapter then, when ever it is, and Thankyou for this update,

Man just as I begin to mostly tolerate the giantesses u go and remind me just how terrible they really are, very spicy scene and very dominating , also every thing with poppy is getting horrifying now that we see what she can be like,. Yes I am rdy for your behemoth of a chapter when ever u are capable.

Author's Response:

Thanks Ralgar, I've been feeling better. Lol I always think comments like these are funny, because some people really like the giantesses (understandable, I love them) but they forget that they are insanely cruel to certain people. 

I still have some scenes to write for the behemoth chapter. It's not my favorite chapter, but it's a necessary chapter. It's plot heavy, but full of giantesses scenes and action. It's probably my most action-filled chapter so far. 

I hope you guys like it.

Been awhile since I have been here so first of all hello, secondly story is still amazing, still waiting for Naomi to have some fun time with Anna. Also to the previous commenter I can answer your question about butt stuff as I asked earlier in the series and the answer was yes we will receive some so look forward to it.



Author's Response:

What goes on Tigerchevy! Thanks for coming back to this never-ending story. Lol Naomi's backstory is coming up in a few chapters, and with that comes some spicy scenes. 

Thanks Tigerchevy for commenting, hope you had a good New Year!

I do apologize but I was wondering when the next chapter might be.  I don’t usually ask this question but your story is incredible and I am very ready for what happens next.

Does she decide to actually unload to one of the girls ( very unlikely), does she get in touch with dufert( poor guy). Does she decide to become a willing pet ( again very unlikely,).I can’t wait to find out the answers to these and more questions.  

  Also I do have a question, let’s say some how situation reversed at the current point in the story, pst chapter 24, I mean Anna becomes big and the 4 become small, would she kill them at this point or keep them alive.  I think she would at this point keep them alive if reluctantly I do think she is starting to care for them. Early in the story yeah no question dead.  But after the zoey incident and the Bennett’s incident I do think she does somewhat cared for them if still hates them. I also think hate and love are two sides of the same coin.  So hmmm yea.

so yea I don’t normally ask the question of how long but i am very much looking forward to the next chapter.  Also hope u had a good holiday.




Author's Response:

I wanted to address your suggestions for spicy scenes, since I haven't been commenting on the actual posts. Whenever I see a suggestion, I add it to my writing document in my notes section, and if it fits the scene I add it. Without spoiling too much, at least one of your suggestions was taken, and it will be in an upcoming chapter. 

Regarding your question, I actually have been thinking of making a "What If" series for this story, and that was one of the prompts. I know Annabelle has expressed wanting the giantesses dead in multiple instances in which she was distressed, but the actual act of killing a person is something else entirely. 

And there's no harm in asking when the next chapter is going to be. It reminds me that there are still people reading this story. I love going through all of the comments you post, Ralgar, because I can tell you're commenting as you're reading, and that's very cool to see.

By the way I’ve been meaning to mention that my sympathy for her father will completely depend on what we find out when we finally get her details ( which by the way u are a total tease,( and I do mean that in the nicest way).  But her father up and disappeared for a year after her sisters death, that for me is grounds to be dishoned as a father, I lost one child u still have another u don’t just up and vanish especially after giving your remaining child a wrong phone number and, and depending on who’s mistake that was ( meaning annelles for calling the wrong number for a year or him giving a wrong number) may even make his abandonment even worse. 

So I will wait judgement on him, but if he is found wonting I will say this, Anne should stop protecting him and let girls do what they will.

my opinion of fathers who abandon their child is very low.



Author's Response:

I mean I'm with you on that one, Ralgar. When Annabelle's backstory is revealed, you'll be able to make a well-informed judgment on his character,

For what it's worth, I also struggle every time I publish to not simply submit the entirety of Annabelle's backstory with no context. I sometimes just want to blurt it out, but I know the waiting will make the reveal feel more deserved.

Their is some thing I’ve been meaning to ask, if u don’t want to that’s fine, but I was wondering if u we’re going to do stuff butt related cause to be fair that is a thing for me and I would be really interested in seeing your take on it, ( poor Annabelle though) i know she wouldn’t enjoy it at all and would prob feel even more disgusted after but dang if it wouldn’t be hot.

Reviewer: Huggler Signed [Report This]
Date: December 16 2021 5:47 PM Title: Chapter 24

Finally something that gives Annabelle something to work with! I think part of what made things so grim was that things seemed completely hopeless. Annabelle's descent into imprinting was looking inevitable. Poppy kept overtaking her thoughts and Annabelle had no real way of stopping it, now she has some form of defense against Poppy and that really makes things interesting.

It's a fun dynamic considering the giantesses adore her, and are pushing her towards imprinting, but now she'll be able to frustrate them presumably with this new information she has, at the very least delaying her imprinting for awhile. As long as they don't know what she's doing, they can't reasonably get upset at her for not imprinting, after all in their mind it's out of Annabelle's control. 

I was so damn ready to say "fuck these other shrinkies" before the reveal that Steven was an ally. I kinda figured one of them would be after your response to my last review, but still ended up being a pleasant surprise.

I can't ignore the looming feeling that Steven and Bitsy are in danger from the other giantesses though. I don't THINK they'd try to kidnap them even if they could, after all what use is a type-0 whose already imprinted on someone else. But if they found out Steven hasn't imprinted I could totally see them trying to mentally break him and keep him. 

The one other thing that I thought about this chapter was when Annabelle made Bitsy cry. It seemed like she was able to get through to her somewhat. With the lack of research done around type-0's I wonder if it's possible to revert the imprinting process... 🤔



Author's Response:

Lol I actually thought of you when writing the "meet me by the bear" scene. I really like it when I see reviews that ask for things that I've already written, but haven't published, because it means that the story is progressing in a way that makes sense (lol I don't know how true this comment will be after chap. 26). 

I think everyone who is in the giantesses' lives is in danger. The Shrinkee imprinting process is currently so mysterious to Annabelle, so we'll just have to wait and see what's really up with it.

Again, thanks for commenting Huggler, your reviews are always so insightful.

Let’s see hmm Leah mostly likely political science and business. Naomi I would think business and maybe fashion, Molly literature and business Harper... maybe how to American blond 101.  I have no idea on Harper. She seems find to be a trust fund kid.Anna I have no idea.

I can’t wait until u bring Zoey back because I am really curious to see how a) u do bring her back and b) I really want to see the 4 and Zoey really go at it. In all there glory.



Author's Response:

Like Mr. In a Suit, you definitely got some right. I love that neither of you can guess Harper's major (I laughed too hard at How to American blond 101). I actually think I hint at one of their majors in the most recent chapter.

Zoey coming back is one of my favorite chapters, Ralgar. I think you'll be surprised how it happens.

I know the question wasn’t made to me, but I will give it a shot because it’s interesting and fun LOL - Leah: political sciences and economics; Molly: law and business; Naomi: fashion design and arts history; Harper: ...?

Also, some questioned why the families didn’t simply took Bitsy and Steven. This is just my especulation, but they might have had plans, but choosen to abort because Annabelle entered the scene.



Author's Response:

Ha! You actually got some right. Impressive. 

Again, I'll discuss the whole existing-Type 0 in further chapters. I don't think this specific question is answered in 26, but it should be in the upcoming chapters. 

Reviewer: Mr in A suit Signed starstarstarstarstar [Report This]
Date: December 16 2021 12:03 AM Title: Chapter 24

This story begun with "Annabelle would you like to share something?", and now, 24 chapters later, Anna is cornered, she has to open up. The question is to who and what will be the consequences. Trust and love (for others and for one self and the power that comes form it) were and are central to the story - the dialogue betwen Steven and Anna summing up those plot point.

If I had to say, Naomi and Harper are the most likely to whom Anna might open up... but Leah is very skilled in reading and manipulating people.  Molly is someose who is eaasy to feel empathy, so it’s difficult to place a beet here.

I am more interested in the consequences. Our heroine believes she can stop her type 0 gene from making HERSELF imprint. That doesn’t mean others won’t imprint on her and doesn’t mean jackshit for the ones who have already imprinted – I think it’s pretty much semmented that Naomi, Harper, Molly and Leah are imprinted and there is no coming back from that. Once your brain changes, it doesn’t come back to what it was. And yes, I am thinking about Nell and her imprinting process – which I believe is already in course.

Anna has to find someone to trust, to open up but also that makes her feel worth, and by interactions alone Nell is the obivious choice. Ok... but her gene and imprinting doesn’t seem to be exactly the same as Bitsy and Steven. That means Anna is making conclusions under the assumption her process is the same as Steven, except it’s not.

So anything can happen if she actually chooses someone, including her pheromone getting stronger and with more side effects. Someone said the voice Anna hears might be the voice of her race... if that is it, it’s clear it wants to accomplish something, something BIG.

Annabelle could be very wrong about how to solve this situation, because Poppy already said she wants Anna to choose someone to become her goddess, her ultimate protector who will shower her (and Poppy) with “unadulterated love”. So, to open up to someone bigger is what Poppy needs her to do.

But, what if Anna can’t choose one among all? Poppy might interpret this as a sign that all 4 or all 5 (Nell includes) are to become her true protectors.

But what does that even mean? We know about the imprinting, but none of  the girls stand a fighting chance against the heads of the 4 families, not even ruthless Leah or crazy Zoey... at least, not in their current size... not while Anna and Poppy don’t reach a clear decision.

For now, the titans are only in Anna’s nightmares... and without a clear face, just lurking in wait... For now, because imagine how bad the Governor and others will want to control her imprinting powers? Anna and no one she knows will be safe. Leah and cia. will be puto n the sidelines by their parentes – this new type 0 isn’t a toy after all.

Really, only a true giantess... or five giantesses to protect her then.

That’s it for theories.  Now I have a sugestion: unaware scenarios, for example: a sibling fight between Nell and Naomi where Anna will be on the ground, maybe on the beach and having to evade their feet while trying to get their attention... this way you can enphasize size diferences, Anna’s feelings of powerlessness (like you did with Zoey in ch. 17).


Well, we are reaching the end of the year, a especially difficult one, so I'd like to thank you for all the hard work you've done and are doing in writing such long and rich chapters.

May 2022 come, with new chapters and, hopefully, the conclusion of the misadventures of Goddess Annabelle!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year for us all!



Author's Response:

Ah, Mr. In a Suit,

Once again, your analysis and theories make me smile. You should really think about writing your own short story. Case in point: I had that specific scene already in my head--although it was with a different set of giantesses. That scene is still not set in stone, so I'll think about maybe changing some things. 


Thanks again for your comment, Mr. In a Suit. I hope you had a great New Year!

I do have a question and it maybe imaterial, but what was Annabelles major, and just what was she planning  on studying besides Shakespear?

Also what are the 4 studying to? I’ve been think and I don’t recall it ever being mentioned, not that I think thee girls really care (except maybe Leah and Molly).



Author's Response:

Okay so I normally respond to comments right as I upload the newest chapter, but I had to reply to this, Ralgar. Sometimes your comments scare me because I've been working on the next chapter now, and I just--as in an hour ago--wrote a section where I mention one of the giantesses' majors. So far I haven't mentioned the others in this chapter, but I might add it since you seem interested.  

I just had to tell you because sometimes I think you guys are hacking into my writing document. Lol and you're right about which giantesses actually care about their studies (I don't think I've ever had a chapter showing Harper or Naomi actually study haha), 


Curious, though what do you think they study? (Hint: most of them are double majors).

By the way yes I love the long chapters, I have always preferred long chapters to short, ( though only problem I have is even long chapters do eventually end).

I do want to know more about this worldd u have made though.  It is very surprising to me that people in power would know about Steven and that he is with an apparent regular person (read peasant) and not arrange things so that something happed to Riley. (Not that I do want something happen rather the opposite really) honestly Steven really surprised me, I was not expecting a normal person to have a type-0. 

The fact that u can apparently ward off the imprinting is so huge though.   Poor Annabelle is going to have such a hard time with that.  

Also at the very end of this story will Annabell sing?




Author's Response:

Lol, so dark Ralgar! Riley deserves better lol!

No, but like I said in a previous reply, the next chapter goes into the registration process a little. I'll probably expand in later chapters if you're still curious. It's funny, I've made up an entire world with rules and regulations, but you guys only see like 6% of it, because that's what relevant to the plot. 

As for Steven, it's been surprisingly fun to write a normal character. His conversations with Annabelle are really interesting to write.

Regarding Annabelle's singing...I'm not telling :)

Ok well now, I do retract my previous statement about imprinting on the 4, with no longer just being an absolute matter of time, hmm so now she needs to find some one who is absolutely in her corner, and has the strength to stand up to all who come after her if and when she escapes cause honestly if she doesn’t find some one like that she is better staying with one of the 4 ( Leah), it sucks and is really not fair, she and the ever many shrinkies and other they and those that support them have killed, but she has an unknowable number of people about wanting her( which doses raise the question about steve and his owner and how they have apparently been left mostly alone, though known about.

I do like the 4 but they do need a massive come to Jesus moment.  

Also I do have questions about the spicy scenes mostly like she is 3 inches tall and like how is she able to do enough to send them so freaking crazy orgasms, is it the pure thought of domination they are doing in which case that proves the lie to leahs theory about them not being people. I certainly don’t get off to the thought of owning my animals and it doesn’t give me a sense of superiority. So huh interesting thought.



Author's Response:

Lol the imprinting game has changed, hasn't it? I think in the behemoth chapter, I address the Shrinkee-registration process with a bit more detail if I'm not mistaken. If I don't, I'll make sure to include it later. It should explain why Steven and Riley are left alone. 

Ha! As for your spicy question, I think it's a combination of things. The domination mindset is for sure a factor. Also, Annabelle may be tiny, but she knows what they like (to her chagrin). 

I think the FF perceive Annabelle differently then they would an animal (despite how much they would deny it). I won't go too much into their mindsets in this reply, but one, two, or all of them may be suffering from cognitive dissonance.

I have to say that this is all very moving and it hit close to home to me. Anabelle's journey through her trauma, all the abuse she has gone through, and all the coping mechanisms she has to deal with that pain and trauma are what truly sets this apart from other GTS stories out there and I'm happy to have a chapter dedicated to it. It opens a way to heal for her, and possible endings for this. Maybe one where she doesn't imprints buts ends up staying with one of the girls?I mean, Leah would love this since she has shown signs she likes Anabelle more when she is either unwilling or just...challenging perhaps?then again, I think instead of "choose one and imprint" the better advice should have been "Pretend to imprint" which would make things easier for Anabelle indeed.

I like the relationship Steven has with Riley. Of course Anabelle doesn't, but just like Steven can't understand her situation, she can't understand his. He hasn't been abused and Riley doesn't uses him to pleasure herself, she seems legit nice, so I'm okay with them being wholesome.

I think this chapter gave us a lot of insight on Anabelle too, like, she is scared of being close to people because she is scared of losing them probably after her sister and mother's deaths, she has trust issues, and she doesn't think she deserves love, which I think is VERY important as to why even when the FF clearly do love and care for her, she still thinks of every excuse as to why they don't love her and just want to use her, other than the having her kidnapped and stuff.

As a last bit I think Steven lied to her about hearing a voice. He is a good actor, clearly, so is no surprise he deceived Anabelle. I think Poppy is like...the voice of her...species??Like in elfen lied, where Lucy had the voice of her instincts to kill humanity. Idk I may be wrong on this one, but I think Poppy is not a normal shrinkie thing like Anabelle thinks. I'll be looking forward to the next chapter but this was great

Thanks for the birthday wishes!



Author's Response:

No problem Naoru, I hope you had a great birthday!


I will say that there will be a chapter where Annabelle's backstory is revealed (I hope that's not a spoiler--I wouldn't just foreshadow it and then never address it lol) and it is pretty heavy, so I'll try to put a disclaimer in the author's notes.

Steven and Annabelle's conversations are so cool to write. I like Annabelle having an actual person to bounce her thoughts off of. 

I also loved all of the things you picked up on Annabelle's characterization. The contrast between Annabelle's refusal to believe she is worthy of love vs. the FF's love bombing is always interesting to write.

I can't speak to your predictions without spoiling anything, but I like hearing your thoughts.

I look forward to seeing what you think of the upcoming chapters.

It seems you have roped Anna into some sort of kama sutra type thing here. She is already under enough stress without the added bonus of having to see others whose minds have melted away, although it is unclear at the moment if their bondings were as forced/bad intentioned as Anna's is trying to be.

------

These are some hardcore cultists trying to break sweet Anna. She has been holding on for so long but I wonder what lengths they will go to try to finally break her willful spirit.

------

Anna raises so solid questions about the mortality rates of Type 0 owners. Humans are big meatsacks filled with pokeable organs that are easily fallen thus leaving poor Bitsy alone with hell knows who or what. Maybe at the mercy of he Foursome's families knowing their reach and resources, she seems like she wouldn't deserve that.

-----

I see the Fearsome Foursome has employed their iron will once again upon the other Type O owners. Molly does seem to be the one who I -would- say might help Anna escape later due to her self image issues being something Anna could use in her favor. Shitty yes but Molly is not exactly innocent so karmic balancing out and what not.

------

Well another wrench thrown into the gears, Steven does seem like a genuinely nice guy and thus far Riley seems to be the best of the owners I've seen by not trying to enslave or break her tiny. I'm not really sure where it all goes but Anna has been getting some legs up lately so this might finally give a little peace somewhere.

Author's Response:

Hey Adam, I love that you comment as you read, it makes looking at your reactions so fun!

Some of my own comments:

I really like the idea of the "after." Right now, the FF are so focused on making Annabelle imprint that they haven't considered what happens after they're gone. It's an interesting idea that really none of the characters has really discussed in detail yet.

Although this story is primarily about Annabelle and the FF, I really enjoy writing scenes where they interact with other characters. Even when they're being "hospitable" the FF are still consistently cruel and selfish. 

Steven and Riley's relationship is really interesting and I plan on delving into it a little bit more.


Thanks for another great comment, Adam!

Ok this changes things a lot.   Hmmmmm I need to think on this, I do still think she will need to stay with the giantesses though, I mean there is no way she will be allowed to get away permeanently but hmmm I need to think on this.


that guy is really naive if he thinks he can compare to Annabelles situation at all.


sad thing is I really do like the 4, they are good villains but I do wish they would actually start to really care and reciprocate to Anna ( they do care but it is so twisted).



Author's Response:

Yeah, you're exactly right. The FF do care about Annabelle, but in a way that Annabelle (and most decent people) would classify as toxic. And as for Steven he has shown so far that he means well, it's just he has no clue about the greater evil that hides in the shadows of the FF's power.

Date: December 11 2021 3:11 AM Title: Chapter 23

Hello again, the only thing that i could think i would really like to see is a chapter for one of the fours pov, ( which might be spoilery territory, but u did say soon we would be getting in to there stories anyway,) . I have read this story twice now and getting rdy to read a third time ( it is just that good) and that i is the one think i miss, is seeing a chapter from pov of the villians, especially during a poppy episode.

Honestly the best outcome that i can think of for Anna is that she imprints on one of thie girls, (by the way I hope Rachel isnt an indicator of what Anna will be like when she imprints, that would take it out of bitter sweet to down right depression at least to me).  I also cant see Anna sucessfully escaping and being able to stay gone, she is worth billions and the only reason she isnt in a lab or elsewhere with people worse than the 4 (ergo their parents) is becuase of the 4.  IF she got away i see that becoming open season on her adn now everyone is going to come after her. People have done worse for millions let alone billions.  

So inconclusion while i love a happy end ( which would be either her father or honesly Cloe,( Nell is to beat down to protect her) and i have suspions about Oliver, I think realistically she needs to imprint and really bond with one of the girls ( if not all 4:P.)

Also i am rooting for either Leah or Harper ( prefer Leah, I think she could really protect Anna in the long run, Harper would be the one  i think would acutally care the most about her post imprinting, ( though really  i am acoutally rooting for all 4 ( a little becasue I will not be surpised if harper went all if i cant have her no one can kinda thing if she imprinted on any of the others like seriously theyu are all monsters but there is something not right in that girls head. Also i do think that all 4 have bonded with her on a minor lvl like Rachel did, just that because they are so big compared to anna it takes alot more and is diluted alot compared to poor Rachel. 

ALso plz spare Rachel.



Author's Response:

Hey again Ralgar!

Without going into spoiler territory too much, one of the FF will definitely be the pov of a pretty important chapter (probably my favorite chapter). 

Anna is up a creek with her entire escaping plot. I think she's coming to terms that it may no longer be a viable option for her. 

Lol and I'm glad you like Rachel, because that's who Annabelle ends up imprinting on. Haha, I'm just joking (or am I?)
