“I didn’t realize how much smaller Sara was compared to Chloe until seeing them cuddled up like this,” Kelli whispered softly, her voice threaded with a quiet awe, eyes lingering on the intimate scene unfolding before them. The gentle glow from the firelight softened the edges of the two girls as they embraced, highlighting the striking disparity between Chloe’s graceful, assured presence and Sara’s petite form, nestled comfortably against her partner. “It really puts our own size into perspective.”
Her voice trailed off into a wistful silence, the warmth and closeness shared by Sara and Chloe drawing forth memories that Kelli had buried away. Those tender evenings spent laughing softly, dancing carelessly, losing herself in affectionate embraces under soft city lights, it all flooded back to her now, vivid yet distant, as if belonging to someone else’s life entirely.
So much of her former existence felt unreachable, untouchable now. She struggled to accept the new reality that she belonged to Kayla, Kayla, her quiet, introverted sister who seemed designed for a secluded, comfortable existence. Deep down, Kelli had always imagined that if one of them was to become infected with Smallara and to become dependent, surely it would be Kayla, the shy gamer who preferred books and solitude to the social whirl Kelli had thrived in. Yet fate had turned sharply, unpredictably, selecting her instead. The thought weighed heavily on her heart, shadowed with an aching confusion that she kept hidden even from herself.
“Do you ever think about what if your sister had gotten Smallara instead of you?” Kelli asked quietly, the question escaping before she could stop it, vulnerability coloring her voice.
Jordan considered the question thoughtfully, his gaze gentle as he turned toward her, lit softly by flickering candles nearby. “No, actually, I’m glad Allison is spared from this,” he admitted sincerely, his voice gentle and contemplative. “It’s not like I love being a little or anything, and obviously, I’d choose to be my old self if I could. But honestly, it isn’t horrible either. Sara can be bossy, sure, but she’s also incredibly organized. Ever since I got my tablet earlier today, she’s already loaded me up with study guides, notes, and outlines for the LSAT. She genuinely wants me to succeed, even now.”
Kelli chuckled softly, a light, sad laughter touched with warmth. “Yeah,” she whispered back, nodding slowly. “I wouldn’t want Kayla to go through this either.”
Jordan looked at her carefully, reading the subtle, lingering sadness behind her eyes. “It’s not wrong, you know, to wish things had turned out differently. I didn’t know you before all this, but from everything I’ve heard and seen, you were larger than life. You had real dreams, Kelli, professional soccer, bright lights, crowded stadiums. You’re used to parties like this; I could see it earlier, you know. When you danced, the whole room seemed to shift around you, the energy moving to your rhythm, people drawn in by your glow. You belonged to that world.” He paused, sincerity lacing each careful word. “I don’t think this little life was meant for you. It’s not selfish to think Kayla might’ve adapted better.”
Kelli’s breath caught softly, her eyes glistening in the firelight, a blend of gratitude and quiet sorrow flickering across her features. Jordan’s words gently validated feelings she’d carried quietly, shamefully, since the moment she had shrunk. For a heartbeat, she allowed herself to feel understood, to share in that silent, comforting validation that perhaps her sadness and longing were not only natural but acceptable.
Sara’s gaze drifted softly downward, her eyes gently alighting upon Jordan and Kelli in quiet conversation. They spoke comfortably, at ease with each other in a way that warmed Sara’s heart and drew a gentle smile across her lips. She studied the delicate intimacy of the moment, illuminated tenderly by candlelight and the flickering warmth of the fire.
There was something deeply reassuring about seeing Jordan like this: relaxed, happy, and, most importantly, sharing the moment with someone his own size, his own kind. Sara felt a bittersweet pang in her chest, aware of the limitations she inherently had in truly fulfilling Jordan’s emotional and social needs. Her affection for him was deep, boundless even, but there were facets of his new reality she could never fully understand or replace. He had lost so much in shrinking, in becoming her pet. But now, as she watched him gently engage with Kelli, Sara recognized the precious opportunity this presented, a chance for Jordan to reclaim at least some sense of autonomy, a semblance of the life he once had.
Kelli was poised and confident, even in her reduced stature, carrying herself with an aura Sara recognized immediately: she was a leader. There was a natural grace in the way Kelli sat, how her eyes sparkled brightly with curiosity and intelligence, how she listened with genuine warmth as Jordan spoke. Yet Sara knew instinctively that beneath that effortless charm was a spirited strength, one she respected deeply, though it meant that she and Kelli would likely need some time to find common ground, mutual trust, and acceptance of their respective roles in Jordan’s life.
Jordan himself had always thrived under the guiding hand of someone stronger, more decisive. Sara had seen it clearly: he was gentle, thoughtful, intelligent, but not a natural leader. He needed someone who could quietly shape him, anchor him, protect him. Someone not entirely unlike herself, she realized with a faint smile, noting that Kelli, despite her current predicament, carried exactly the same inner spark and decisive energy Sara recognized in herself.
Sara allowed her gaze to linger a moment longer, savoring the scene before her, a soft murmur of conversation, a stolen laugh shared quietly between the two Littles, the firelight playing gently across their tiny forms. In that tender, fleeting moment, Sara saw not just the promise of companionship or romance, but the possibility that Jordan’s life could still be rich, meaningful, and genuinely happy, even in his new world.
Satisfied, she let her eyes drift back to Chloe, gently nestling closer, her heart warmed not only by Chloe’s comforting embrace but also by the quiet hope blossoming between Jordan and Kelli.

really cute chapter. it’s chapters like this why i love the story. Giantess world has some good stories for story’s sake, but they seem to get updates slowly so all i get is smut. it’s just nice to have a story to come back to that is a real plot driven episodic story
Thanks, I like that moments like these can stand on their own. As these moments make the more excited moments worthwhile to me. Kind of like a payoff so to speak.
Plus at this point I am more interested in just the actual storytelling aspect then anything else.
I love that Sara appears giant to the littles but is “small” in comparison to other immune people.
Sara has never been a very big person in stature. So it does create an odd juxtaposition between the littles and her and society to Sara. As while sara isn’t oddly small. she is just not a tall person.
I don’t know rather to fear and be excited for that one on one moment between Sara and Kelli about their “roles” in Jordan life but it’s coming sooner or later
Loved this conversation between Jordan and Kelli and how they question about if it happen to someone else getting Smallara with Jordan 100% cool it being him than his sister while Kelli is kinda the same way. But glad Jordan said that Kelli doesn’t belong in this kind of world which is why I love this conversation so much it so deep and thought consuming.
Sara’s monologue was interesting too
Overall great work
Thanks,
Sara and Kelli will at some point need to clear the air so to speak.As they are both people in kayla’s life so not going anywhere and if jordan and kelli continue doing things together she would be a factor in that aspect of life as well.
0) Loving that wet hair look Sara’s sporting.
1.1) “I didn’t realize how much smaller Sara was compared to Chloe until seeing them cuddled up like this,” Sara’s the smallest in the friend group, it’s a funny spot of irony.
2) “Deep down, Kelli had always imagined that if one of them was to become infected with Smallara and to become dependent, surely it would be Kayla” that actually seems kinda mean, almost like she’s wishing it on Kayla. I couldn’t imagine Jordan wishing Smallara on Alison.
3.1) “No, actually, I’m glad Allison is spared from this,” knew it
3.2) “I’d choose to be my old self if I could. But honestly, it isn’t horrible either” Dude, get some standards, Sara’s been an abusive cunt with no accountability, I’m not saying he can’t look on the brightside, he should still be able to know when she’s done something wrong and hold her accountable.
4.1) “It’s not wrong, you know, to wish things had turned out differently” Fair assessment.
4.2) “I don’t think this little life was meant for you. It’s not selfish to think Kayla might’ve adapted better.” it’s possible, Kayla does have a personality closer to Jordan, and he’s adapting quicker.
5) “They spoke comfortably, at ease with each other in a way that warmed Sara’s heart and drew a gentle smile across her lips” They do seem to be talking like the biggles aren’t there.
6.1) “There was something deeply reassuring about seeing Jordan like this: relaxed, happy, and, most importantly, sharing the moment with someone his own size, his own kind” Sara’s been the main obstacle to Jordan relaxing and being happy; her happiness to see him happy is good.
6.2) “Sara felt a bittersweet pang in her chest, aware of the limitations she inherently had in truly fulfilling Jordan’s emotional and social needs.” her limits aren’t the problem, her decisions are.
6.3) “Her affection for him was deep, boundless even, but there were facets of his new reality she could never fully understand or replace. He had lost so much in shrinking, in becoming her pet.” But affection isn’t enough; she doesn’t respect him. And she callously added to him losing everything, blatantly ignoring when he tried to speak up about it.
6.4) “Sara recognized the precious opportunity this presented, a chance for Jordan to reclaim at least some sense of autonomy, a semblance of the life he once had.” Autonomy she’d taken herself, more than what the government and Smallara had already taken.
7.1) “Jordan himself had always thrived under the guiding hand of someone stronger, more decisive. Sara had seen it clearly: he was gentle, thoughtful, intelligent, but not a natural leader” the fuck she mean always, she’s known him a week (techniclly six days. And he wasn’t always thriving under her hand.
7.2) “He needed someone who could quietly shape him, anchor him, protect him. Someone not entirely unlike herself, she realised with a faint smile” Sounds like Sara’s taken some copium, and is now patting herself on the back. Jordan was doing fine without her, there’d probably be thousands of guardians who could take care of him like Sara does, kinder and better even.
7.3) “Someone not entirely unlike herself” but also not someone exactly like Sara, someone who doesn’t ignore him when he needs her, someone willing to admit wrongdoing and make up for it, instead of move on and hope her sins are forgotten
8) “Sara saw not just the promise of companionship or romance, but the possibility that Jordan’s life could still be rich, meaningful, and genuinely happy, even in his new world.” His life could be, and while Sara did have a hand in creating this moment, she’s also been an obstacle to his life being those things she allegedly wants for him.
0) I added that wet hair for you. As i have a few wet hair models and I remembered you commenting on Chloe’s when i mentioned it was pulled back but did’t switch the model to be pulled back. which ironically i still didn’t htink to do when I swapped Sara’s. I only thought of it after the fact.
1) It is I liked the idea of her being short from the start. Not like egregiously short or disabled short. Just naturally not tall. So even someone average height would sitll be taller hten sara.
2) I wouldn’t call it wishing more just if someone had to have Smallara. Kayla would be able to deal with the reprecussions easiest compared to Kelli. As Kayla’s lifestyle wouldn’t be impacted nearly as much.
3) yup, Jordan has made that clear from the start though. They even ahd counter measures that he was upset Allison didn’t follow as she became gaurdian to her parents.
3.2) You have to remember though Jordan doesn’t view the things Sara has done quite as harshly as you do. I understand why you would and others would as well. But Jordan himself doesn’t feel as strongly and part of what Sara thinks about Jordan is true in that he prefers to follow direction as opposed to lead. He can lead and make decisions if he needs to so its not bottleneck. However, he is much more comfortable just with someone telling him what he needs to do and then just carrying it out.
4 and 4.2) It is, I think it would be more weird not to have thoughts on why things couldn’t be different. As while I wouldn’t wish Smallara upon Kayla. I do think Kelli getting Smallara is probably a bit more mean then if Kayla got it. As so much of who Kelli was is just lost where Kayla isn’t as much defined by the things she would lose if she got smallar. SHe could still play games. she likes playing sports but its not part of her identity like it was Kelli. She doesn’t like socailizing like Kelli does so not being able to go to parties and be drug to events wouldn’t be a loss for Kayla.
5) It is kind of a extension of the date. So they are talking more intimately as they are removed from the party scene. So conversation is a bit easier.
6) I don’t know if I agree that sara was main obstacle in jordan not relaxing or any unhappiness a piece sure but I think main reason may be a bit overstated personally. As I think it there is a degree of self responsibility especially if the argument is that Jordan is still a person and should have equal rights. If that is the case then its not Sara’s job to ensure his happiness or fight for his rights it would be his own. If he is her pet then I can see the argument moreso for your point of view but then that would come with considerations in other areas.
6.2) Overall I think her decisions have been okay looking at the situation as a whole. I mean she did reach out to his family on her own.
6.3) I wouldn’t say she doesn’t respect him but i think the difference is she looks at him as her pet so she acts accordingly to that methodolgy which if you give Jordan the same rights as a pet sara actually provides him more rights then a traditional pet but he does have fewer rights then a person.
6.4) The lack of autonomy i think comes down to hte difference in opinion into status and stature. As for a pet Jordan has quite a bit of autonomy but he has not much by human standards.
7.1) They have observed Jordan for longer though. She was also his neighbor so just in passing it would be possible to notice a few things. She also probably dug into or asked steph to dig into the whole Ms. Brooks thing.
7.2) Thousands seems like a stretch. I do agree their are better ones overall when you account for non-skill based interactions and beliefs. But being that sara’s beliefs on littles aren’t unique exactly to her and are more common then uncommon. I would say she woudl still average out pretty high.
7.3) She hasn’t igorned him all that much. THere was the time with Maisy which sticks out. I don’t count dayton as Jordan didn’t say anything he just tried to run away from dayton. Sara actually gave him an out to ocme with her and he chose not to say anything. Regardless of beliefs as to why he didn’t ask for help. he still didn’t which makes it not count as ignoring to me. Those would be the main ones i can think of.
8) Although Sara’s view and Your view would differ so the objectives on if they were met or not met woudl be different. As you philospohically disagree as to care, rules, regulation, fairness, treatment, etc. So it would be difficult to compare what Sara would view vs you would view without a universal or neutral scale I feel like.
0) oh shucks, you gonna make me feel special
2) Kayla might adapt quicker, she is more suited to the life, though I wouldn’t want her to experience it.
3.1) typical little sister
3.2) He hated it enough to risk his safety in the streets of residential new York. I get that he’s a lot more patient and forgiving than I am.
4 and 4.2) It’d be a common idea amongst Littles, as well as questions like “would I be a better guardian?”. Kayla would probably adapt better then Kelli, as mentioned earlier..
6.1) It could be an overstatement, I could see that. Jordan has tried to voice his concerns, fight for his rights, protest things he doesn’t like, and each time Sara has decisively ended it with no quarter. Sara’s the one who forced him into the pet role, despite knowing he was against it. Jordan has done his job fighting for his rights, he just lost, and Sara won.
6.2) The family he didn’t want contacted. Sara isn’t all bad, and I try to give her credit when she warns it, I just don’t think she’s earned as much as she gets.
6.3&4) The fact she views him as a pet is inherently disrespectful to me, I understand where you’re coming from, as she respects him more than Mocha, but the fact that that’s the comparison is the problem
7.1) She barely knew him before than, mostly just ogled him, didn’t even know he was with miss Brooks, she could have asked steph, but I doubt that’d’ve turned much up.
7.2) I originally wrote millions, but that felt like a stretch. I wrote that under the assumption that there were millions of guardians across the US meaning thousands would still mean less that 1%. Sara’s about the halfway point between Cindy and Chloe, currently I’d say she leaned closer to Cindy but based on Funday Sunday and Beach Trip she may go more Chloe’s way in the future.
7.3) I assume you mean you’re not counting the Tuesday Dayton incident, which is true, he didn’t speak up, but I do count the Sunday Dayton incident where he called out to her, she heard him and chose to do nothing, even mocked him for it later.
8) That sounds right.
7.3 if I remember correctly, Dayton threatened him, so Jordan was afraid to speak up to Sara when he had the chance. I think Sara dropped the ball on that one.
correct. Also, and we haven’t seen dayton since, she’s expecting him to be doing her homework, or she was. that may have been squashed when Sarah spoke to her in private
We haven’t seen Dayton since in Smallara prime, and it’s confirmed that Dayton, in her own series, hasn’t seen Jordan since that day, but also that she doesn’t know (or realise) why Sara’s keeping Jordan from her.
I think Asuka is saying he should have ignored Dayton’s threat and told Sara anyway.
Personally, based on her history of ignoring and victim-blaming him, I don’t think Sara gave him any reason to trust that she’d believe or side with him.
I also doubt she’d believe Jordan if he told on Dayton. Sara only saw the truth because Dayton accidentally recorded herself threatening Jordan.
I agree,but want to add, that when a 30 foot pre-teen threatens you, you have some serious things to consider,plus he had only been small for a couple of days at that point. Heck by the time of the party it had not even been a full week yet.
I do agree the threat was a strong deterrent to Jordan as he isn’t the kind of person who is going to fight back or not back down. So it was/is a effective tool to use against him.
You are also correct in that the party is day 6. When they wake up the day after it will be officially one full week.
Lethal is corret that was what I was saying. In that Jordan could have told Sara anyway it was a choice not too.
I can also understand why he wouldn’t as darkone pointed out. She is still a giant to him and would have the power to make good on any threat. So the reluctance to say something is understandable.
However, I will say doing the right thing even when its hard despite the repercussions would have shown strong character and a bit more morality. But that’s also not in Jordan’s wheelhouse.
