sometimes getting shrunk is about the mortifying ordeal of needing to rely on someone else

[sprout-gt]

I don’t talk about shrinking enough for someone who really fucking loves it as a trope, but today i was thinking about like...holding someone, feeling them shrink before your eyes rather than just watching. And I'm obsessed with it rn. So here...have this..

They were facing you at first, next thing you know they stumble and you catch them, arms under theirs, their head on your shoulder for a brief moment ‘til it’s not, for the change starts to overcome them rapidly; and soon you feel their weight drop against you entirely as their feet leave the ground and you realise, looking down to see their head barely at chest height, that you are holding them up. Their legs are dangling and you quickly crouch down, trying to keep them standing while still supporting them; their hands clutching the fabric of your shirt, fingers getting smaller by the second. But it’s not stopping yet. You can see panic in their eyes, fear even as they get even smaller; their weight feeling less and less against you as you sink to your knees, following them down to the ground; you don’t want to pick them up and humiliate them, you’re trying so very hard to keep their feet on the ground...but soon you’re less standing there with them, supporting them; and more looming over as they clutch in panicked desperation at you. Your arms don’t fit under their own anymore, but your hands do, and you wrap them round their chest to keep them from falling as the change overtakes them; with abject shock you realise your fingertips touch as you fold your digits around them. They’re tiny now, smaller than you ever thought possible for another human being to be, and you can feel a miniature heart fluttering against your palm; tears pricking in their eyes as they crane their neck back to look you in the eye. You can almost hear their thoughts.

It’s not stopping.

It’s not stopping, why isn’t it stopping?

They’re petrified, not of you, however. You suck in a deep breath as you feel them shrink in your hands, smaller and smaller until your palms engulf their entire torso; they’re like a doll now, and you realise the time has come to give up trying to keep them standing. You feel an overwhelming urge to protect them, hold them close just to give them some semblance of comfort; and so you do. You whisper an apology, terrified you might frighten them; and then you tighten your grip ever so slightly and lift. Tiny hands clutch at your digits, a gasp so small you can barely hear it rises from a shocked face, but they do not begin to squirm; though, looking at the toll the ordeals having on them you wonder if they simply do not have the strength to do so anymore. They dwindle more and you adjust your hold, able to grasp them one-handed now; the gentle squeeze of your grip surrounding their body and legs as you wonder just how small they can go. It’s hard to truly read expressions on a face that small, but you hope and pray that terror on their face isn’t directed at you. As they continue to shrink down you do the only thing you can think to do; you bring them up to your chest, and you hold them there in as close as a hug as you can manage. You lay your palm against them, pressing them right over your heart with a gentle touch; trying to ignore the fact you can feel their outline getting even tinier as they are held between your shirt and the plush surface of your hand. What are they now? Two inches tall? You can’t see them, they’re engulfed, hidden from view; and, as you try to focus on calming your own panicked breathing, it seems the gentle pressure against them does the trick. You feel their shrinking slow, grinding to a halt as they lay there; you wonder what they’re thinking, what it’s like to be in that dark, soft crevasse right over your heart. That little safe nook you made just for them, protecting them by surrounding them; encasing them in comfort. You feel them shift, and you briefly tilt your hand to peer down at them….

It’s stopped. It’s finally ended, and there they are; so impossibly small and yet unharmed, safe and sound there with you. They look up, and you almost burst into tears as you meet that pinprick gaze. The smallest lips part, and for a moment you fear they’re going to scream; can they even recognise what you look like now? They’re shorter than your pinkie finger….you must look like a monster.

But then, so quiet anyone but you might miss, a single phrase is spoken.

“Thank you”

And you wonder if they can feel your heart skip a beat against them.

does anyone else feel like they can't tell anyone about g/t not because of shame or embarrasment but because they literally couldn't explain it.

like i don't even know where i would start.

so yeah i've been a part of this niche tumblr community for years about tiny people interacting with giant people because it makes my brain extremely happy. no i don't know why i'm like this. like what.

put me in your pocket I swear I won’t do any weird shit

[sprout-gt]

really big fan of the idea that shrinking gives you the equivalent of jet lag for the first few days… everything’s so big and loud & the way you’re perceiving even time is wonky. Textures are weird. Gonna get headaches. Gonna throw up. Gonna have to lie down and focus on breathing for a few. Just overall motion sickness… dizzy in the head… but it’ll plateau itself out. You’ll get used to it… your head won’t feel like it’s splitting as much anymore once you pry your eyes open to look at the oversized landscape of your room.

i just fell to my knees in a denny’s parking lot

Someone, finding out their partner is actually a size shifter and while their now giant partner is panicked hoping they won't leave they won't leave them, the tiny can only think about how hot their partner looks from this angle.
