“That was intense,” Kelli said at her normal underbred speaking volume as she walked over to the table Sara had set up.
“It’s probably partly my fault. Sara let me decide how she was going to be dealt with. I told Maisy off and Sara double and now triple downed now.” Jordan said speaking at a similar level.
“Well at least she is supporting you and Kayla. I had my doubts, but she seems genuine. She even stood up for Kayla and they’ve only really been friends today. I hope I didn’t overstep inviting you over on Saturday. This is just a lot and it’s nice to have someone to experience it all with and whose my size, sort of.” Kelli said with a grin.
“We are coming with size jokes now. I see how it is. I used to be six foot two you know.” Jordan said sitting up straighter trying and failing to Match Kelli’s height.
“Well, I used to be five foot three, but we are the size we are now. It’s kind of nice not being the small one for a change. Last time a guy was smaller than me was in 5th or 6th grade.
“But no, I don’t mind coming over. It’s probably better. Sara would have made me help out with cleaning. Anything that had fallen into a nook or cranny she couldn’t reach. It would have been my job.” Jordan said as he continued to chat with Kelli.
“I told you that Ms. Brooks likes you still. Did you see how she was eyeing you as she was teaching? When Sara was holding you during her lecture, she was sneaking peeks constantly.”
“Well, I couldn’t not see it now that you broke the glass ceiling,” Jordan said as the class started.
“Jordan,” Sara said, interrupting, “You’re supposed to be taking notes. Do your flirting between class like the rest of us.” Sara said as Jordan’s face got a little red.
“I wasn’t flirting.” Jordan said turning around. As Kelli placed her hand over her mouth quietly giggling at how flustered Jordan got. It was cute how self-conscious he seemed to get about it. Which was odd to odd to her with how flamboyant Sara seemed to be. But then she looked at her Kayla and figured she probably didn’t have room to talk. They were about as far apart socially as two people could get and now here, she was. Going to be spending the rest of her life with her little tomboy of a sister.
Although her influence does seem to be helping Kayla make friends, as if it weren’t for her, she would have never approached Sara who seems to be good for her. It gets her out of her comfort zone of being alone. It bothered her she didn’t know she was being bullied but at least she has people who are looking out for her now since she isn’t in any position to stop someone from bullying Kayla in her current form. The best she could do would be to throw herself down their throat, grab onto the sides of their tongue and let them choke on her. In theory she would be able to climb out once they suffocated or Kayla could pull her out.
1) love Kelli’s attack plan though I fo have some doubts about it logistically
2) Kelli’s a good sister, willing to accept that someone telling her sister to treat her as less is ultimately helping her sister out. It must have been heartbreaking to learn Kayla had bullies.
3) Sara didn’t let Jordan decide how to deal with Maisy, she half asked what she said she’d do leaving Jordan to need to stand up for himself, it’s still a bit of a shock that she stood up for him instead of punished him for standing up for himself.
4) Still suck that Jordan needs to take classes, why isn’t he doing the remedial courses like Gav? I had assumed that would be the standard for littles.
5) I like that most littles have different personalities with their guardians, it makes it more interesting, though it does seem to counter compatibility at times.
6) I like the bond brewing between Killi and Jordan.
1) going feet first would be more effective as Kelli would be able to breathe and pull herself out easier.
2) she is probably aware there is not much she can do to change society. Plus she could also have faith in Kayla.
3) this one I disagree with you on. Sara did let Jordan decide and then backed his choice otherwise she wouldn’t have thrown away her chance to make friends with Maisy which she wanted to do but sacrificed for Jordan and then doubled down again in science. That’s letting Jordan decide.
4) Do you really think Tiffany would accept a remedial class. She would get him a tutor before that.
5) they have variable personalities makes it more realistic. As none of them were paired based on compatibility. It was just chance or how it worked out.
6) they are getting friendly
1) that actually wasn’t one of my doubts. My doubts were
I) would she be jumping or getting thrown down their throats?
II) how would she handle the tounge?
III) How does she olan to avoid getting bitten/chewed?
IV) what’s her escape plan if/when swallowed?
V) how would she manage the spit?
VI) does she have a away to open their mouths from inside or out?
2) I guess, but I would still be hoping my sister had better friends if I was in Kelli’s situation, Faith is good, but she’s already been influenced by Sara.
3) She did let Jordan decide weather or not to forgive Maisy, but thus was after ignoring/minimising his concerns and half assing the solution she already reluctantly agreed to try. But I will concede she left the final say up to him.
4) I don’t know! Apparently she doesn’t accept a fucking college degree! And honestly I think Jordan might be geting past giving a shit what Tiff thinks, she’s just getting worse, and at a much faster rate than Sara’s “improvements”.
5) yeah, it’s a natural way to generate little conflicts between them without over dramatising it. (Though I’d say Gavin’s pairing was more the result of his choices than chance I’d say if he had broken up with Mal, either his Mum would have gotten training or he’d be Sara’s)
1) if she is able to jam her body far enough down there throat they wouldn’t be able to spit her out but also wouldn’t be able to bite her. A person can’t go all that long without air. The harder part would be what is stopping them from just pulling her out of their mouth.
As I don’t think they could swallow her whole. If she was able to suffocate them escaping the mouth cavity wouldn’t be hard. She could just push the mouth open and pull her way out.
The keys are making sure she’s not bitten/chewed and getting far enough in to negate the tongue.
She has a plan but it’s probably not the most practical of plans.
2) I think Sara is pretty nice overall. Most of the detracting points I’ve heard you mention have been about her opinions on littles. Not so much on her peer to peer values.
3) 1 point for Sara. (In a professor mcgongall voice)
4) Tiffany was just going to have him take the LAT’s. Sara doesn’t think he will pass with a score her mother would accept so is bringing him to school and having him take classes to bolster his score.
5) most certainly, Gavin would have been with Sara. Gavin’s situation is his own doing. He probably would have had a better life with Sara but that’s life.
1) oh jeez, that all seems like it’s maybe not be as effective as Kelli is imagining it’d be.
2) you’re right, she is much better with others of her own species than with littles. Her opinion on littles isn’t great, but her subsequent actions are the bigger issue for me.
3) yeah, just gotta ignore the negative points that she got leading up to it.
4) that would have been OK, but what would she have done of his score wasn’t “heigh enough” she’s clearly Ok with Mocha not being trained, and it’s not like she expects him yo get a job so other than ego there’s no point, and it’s not like she gives him reason to want to impress her.
5) I’m kinda interested in an alternate timeline with that “what if” set up. Lol
3) i feel like it’s like sports you can’t go negative so she was just at zero. Now she has climbed to 1 point
4) the expectations for mocha aren’t the same expectations for Jordan though.
3) oh I thought it was like house points in Harry Potter, where in bad deeds got the deducted just as good deeds got them added, my bad.
4) I know, but Tiff when from “he’s still a person you need to treat him with dignity” to, “you’ll be a good tool to teach my daughter responsibility” to “You’re a pet get over it, we’ll still love him” to “Im not going to say anything while you lock him in solitaryconfinementover a minor infratlction, thinky veiling that you’re taking out your anger on him” to “He’s a filthy animal he should eat on the floor” and now to “he needs to do well in school for some reason” so forgive me for net getting a good read on where he stands with her.
3) bad deeds do get deducted like in HP but you can’t deduct lower then zero was more point.
4) Well one statement was before she knew he was not only going to be stuck like that but stuck like that living in her house.
Part of the thing with Tiffany is you only ever see snippets of her. Which is kind of the point. You’re not supposed to have a read on her as Jordan doesn’t either. As your only seeing things through Sara and Jordan’s perspectives with her. There hasn’t been a Tiffany and Jordan scenario or even a Tiffany and Sara scenario yet.
4) I had suspected that her 180 came from his shrinking becoming permanent, though it’s nice to see it in typing.
I’d say that’s actually true of all characters other than Jordan, even Sara has parts of her life that a shrouded in mystery from the reader.
Yes!!!!!!!! The Kelli x Jordan movement grows even further yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssss sorry I wasn’t able to comment last chapter Sara went crazy with her comments on Maisy as for this I just can’t get over how well Kelli and Jordan get along …… and maybe even more so later to … sucks that Jordan has to go through high school again but hey he might learn a few new things or be able to answer a question for the teacher
Prediction time again
The teacher ask for someone to answer a questions Maisy raises her hand and answer but it’s incorrect but Jordan realized the answer to the question and the teacher says he is correct with Sara be proud of Jordan and getting Maisy angry that she got out smarted by a little in public
Hahaha
It is a more difficult school then he went too. So he does have that to deal with.
I figured you would like the developments of Kelli and Jordan.
I’d love for him to answer a question Maisy couldn’t, bonus points if Sara couldn’t either. Personally I’d love for Sara’s worst class to be something Jordan’s great at, like he could be fluent in what ever LOTE she studies.
That would be interesting. Jordan is fluent in Spanish or something and Sara hates language art classes.
Yeah, that exactly.
