Also, nothing beats those carewhumper type giants. The ones who don’t view themselves as anywhere near whumper levels and who genuinely don’t understand why the mere sight of them, inspires pure dread in the tiny.

Especially in the tiny’s view, where the giant isn’t particularly threatening, but just the fact that anything the giant does terrifies them, and how even that thought is frightening.

My FAVORITE, like literally that is all my giant OCs -- Whumpers who truly believe themself to be a caretaker for their poor, pathetic little tiny while inadvertently making their life a living hell. In their mind, there's simply no way the sweet tiny would be able to live a long and comfortable life without them stepping in to help, to keep them safe and protected from the much bigger outside dangers.

Never mind the fact that the tiny was already living a happy life with their friends and family, the giant can show them true safety. The tiny only thinks they had a comfortable way of life in their sad little existence prior when the giant is all too happy to give them a more pampered lifestyle of a spoiled pet. And absolutely no one is going to take their new beloved tiny away from them, not even their own inferior kind.

Also because I'm a sucker for this trope, the tiny has absolutely every reason to fear the giant because they've already proven time and time again how little they care for other tinies. They'll maim and kill them without a second thought for entertainment, they'll swat them like pesky bugs, they'll hunt them like an enraged predator if the tinies try to attack/pull a rescue mission. But for some reason, they're totally smitten by this one single tiny that they'll cherish above all else. Content to smother them in unyielding affection with the same bloodied hands that have already killed dozens.

At what point do you have to cut your losses and allow the giant to keep one random tiny in order to keep hundreds of others from being slaughtered?
