This is still one of my favorite series and i look forward to seeing what Carly's punishment will be some day.  I'm really glad Jack got a happy ending after everything he went through.  His parents must feel really guilty and wishing they found out sooner. 



Author's Response:

Thanks! I really do plan to address what happened with everybody in this story someday.

The guy who invented the PMRD? Heh, one could almost say him getting shrunk  is karma.

That's interesting.  I wonder what Technologic did with Carly then. Since everyone thinks she's in prison, i'm guessing they didn't just let her go free. 

 

They experimented on her maybe? It couldn't be to ask her about the shrinking process, since Jack and his cousin were the ones that knew the details of how to shrink someone. I mean, otherwise Carly would have shrunk more people. 

Goood job sir, you had my curiosity, but now you have my attention! 

Reviewer: HectorVanDyne Signed starstarstarstarstar
Date: March 15 2015 Title: Chapter 68: Chapter 68: Inside Knowledge

Now that i think about, if Blackmail happened in the same universe as the shrink act, does that mean that Jack's parents used the PMRD to give jack his full size back? Hell, i can even see Techilogic using such a thing to give themselves some good PR, especially since the public seems to be sypathetic towards Jack. 

I'm also thinking that it was really lucky for Jack that Carly was shrunk before the whole thing went public, otherwise Techilogic might have kidnapped him. Then again, taking Carly was likely easier for them, few people would care about a criminal disappearing after all. 

 

@AdamX: I don't know, as great as a villain Carly was, i always felt Jack deserved his happy ending, especially since he fought hard for it. But that's me. 



Author's Response:

In answer to your other review: you're right that Carly doesn't know the chemical formula, so Techilogic wouldn't have wanted her for that. I won't say anything more, though, since some of that will be shown in a later story.

Now for this one, it's a good thought, though Blackmail actually takes place prior to the invention of the PMRD, so even after Jack is saved, there's still not yet a way to put him back to normal. Glad to know you think Jack deserved a happy ending!

Reviewer: HectorVanDyne Signed starstarstarstarstar
Date: March 15 2015 Title: Chapter 1: Act I: Prisoner, Chapter 1: Good Morning

Ah, so Jack would still have to wait awhile,  maybe even years,  until the PMRD is an option for him?



Author's Response:

Right. This is something that will be made clearer in Blackmail 5.

Date: July 20 2015 Title: Chapter 76: Epilogue: Good Night

Great epilogue, i love that they all ended living together. Makes sense, they are the only ones that can understand each other after camp Julia. 

And it's not surprising that Julia's parents would threaten to sue, but it's good to know they could do much against our heroes.



Author's Response:

Thanks for reading and all your past commentary! I imagine Julia had to be at least partially a product of her upbringing, so her parents probably aren't very friendly either.

Will the last diary deal with the events leading to the final days of Jack and Carly's time together or something like that?



Author's Response:

Actually it'll be the opposite. The last chapter will take us back to the beginning of their time together. This 14th chapter is as far down the timeline as Blackmail 4 will go, since it's set roughly 2 months before the start of the 3rd story.

Very well done!

 

And i'm guessing part five will be  after part three? I am looking forward to seeing how Carly deals with being tiny.



Author's Response:

Thanks! Yes, 5 will take place after 3.

I'm hoping we'll see June again some day and maybe she can be freed. It would be cool to see her meet Jack, since they shrunk around the same time.

 

I'm also looking forward to seeing Claire in Blackmail 5, i'm guessing she had something to do with what happened to Carly in prison.



Author's Response:

Hehe. Can't spoil anything for now, but you may be onto something. ;)

Reviewer: HectorVanDyne Signed
Date: July 25 2017 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1: Class Subordination

So I've been really reading this and is the implication that Claire is behind June shrinking? I think i missed that the first time around. 

 

Though that begs the question of why Claire waited so long to retrieve her. 



Author's Response: At this point in the chronology, the implication is not that Claire was directly responsible for June shrinking (accidents tend to happen in this story universe/series) but it's also fair to assume that Claire eventually found where June might be as a result of tracing said accident.

Didn't see that revelation coming,  always wondered where Scott's dad was.

 

Another great story in the Time-Out saga. I look forward to part 7. Maybe with one of Scott's siblings getting a shrink punishment too?

Speaking of, i look forward to see how Scott's and Maggie's relationship improves, that seriously is my favorite development so far, especially since Scott's relationship with his brother has soured. 



Author's Response:

Thanks! I won't spoil names, but I will say various other people besides Scott will be shrinking too in part 7.

Scott and Maggie still have a ways to go, but it can certainly only improve after some of what happened in this story.

Reviewer: HectorVanDyne Signed starstarstarstarstar
Date: February 04 2015 Title: Chapter 29: Chapter 29: Maggie's Actions

This does beg the question,  what is the line Maggie won't cross?  Obviously she wouldn't do what Nancy did.



Author's Response:

You're right that Maggie definitely wouldn't do what Nancy did. The line is intentionally unclear, but it probably exists wherever Maggie believes she's doing actual, lasting harm. Most of what she's done to Scott she views as temporary punishment for his sins, and feels justified in it. When she sees him at his lowest, though, she begins to realize the kind of impact that vulnerability is having.

Reviewer: HectorVanDyne Signed starstarstarstarstar
Date: February 11 2015 Title: Chapter 31: Chapter 31: For the Good

Man, it's kinda hard to read Judy.  I do believe she's upset over what Nancy did and i look forward to see how she makes sure Nancy never does it again.  But at the same time,  the way she treated Scott in this chapter. ..

Though this chapter did confirm to me that part of her motivation is making sure her "little boy" stays with her forever. 

Also,  I'm guessing Maggie told Judy about Nancy? 

 

Looking forward to the next chapter! 

 



Author's Response:

She definitely wants Scott to stay in her grasp for the foreseeable future, though not necessarily forever, as we may see in future stories. Judy has a plan here, for sure. And yes, Maggie told Judy about Nancy.

Thanks for reviewing!

Reviewer: HectorVanDyne Signed starstarstarstarstar
Date: February 11 2015 Title: Chapter 31: Chapter 31: For the Good

Speaking of Nancy,  any chance we'll see what Judy will do to Nancy so she doesn't take advantage of Scott again in the last chapter?



Author's Response:

That's probably not something that will be shown, as in all likelihood it'll just be a conversation between the women. However Judy is confident, and rightly so, that she can convince Nancy to keep things PG-13 with Scott from now on.

Reviewer: HectorVanDyne Signed
Date: February 12 2015 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1: MVP

Will it just be Scott and Judy in the last chapter? 



Author's Response:

Essentially, yes, though one other character will appear tangentially.

Reviewer: HectorVanDyne Signed
Date: February 13 2015 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1: MVP

Hey,  now that Maggie and Scott are on friendlier terms,  any chance Scott will now consider sleeping in her room? It must be better than sleeping in the living room. 

Seriously though, even if she's not a complete angel yet, i do like forward to her and Scott being nicer to each other. 

 

 

 



Author's Response:

That may well be what happens eventually, especially if Judy keeps up like she has been. Right now, though, Scott and Maggie still have some things to work out between them.

Reviewer: HectorVanDyne Signed starstarstarstarstar

You have a point, Joy and Mark's relationship is far more normal than Judy and Scott's, or as normal as it can be within the Shrink Act universe anyway. I do hope we see Joy and Mark bonding in someway.

 

And thank you for these stories, they are really fun to read. Both the ones with the tiny person and big people get along and the ones where they don't. 

 

 



Author's Response:

There actually are families in the Shrink Act universe that are not grossly dysfunctional like the Stevenses! Any ways we see Joy and Mark bonding will definitely be much less messed up than Judy and Scott.

Sure thing. I'm glad to hear you like my stories at both ends of the spectrum.
