You've got a typo: "Though luck little buddy" instead of "Tough luck," presumably.

Maybe this one was tooooo long lol... Nothing burns a writer out more than writing something they themselves thought was too long.

Thanks for the kind comment Eode! Cheers

as always, a well written vore story.
one you can read without having to skim throught it to check if the vore scenes are worth the build up.

The vore scenes are the climax of these stories, they need to be somewhat interesting, y'know? I hate having to skim to check stuff like that LOL

Thanks!

Absolutely hitting the niche I adore. I've been a big fan and greatly anticipating this story. I didn't have time to check but ever since you announced I've had an eye on - and when vore day came, I hoped beyond hope!

I could go on about every step of the way that this hit home. The pre-vore was perfection. And overall, you've made your way into being my favourite author. It was a novel made manifest and the love of the subject showed.

For the 'ultimate' little sister macro vore story though, to claim that title, I feel like the end rushed to the finish line. Seemed like the teasing was just sinking in, there wasn't a farewell of digestive sign-off from lil' sis, just an end to the big-lil-bro.

((and just personally, if you're willing to tease a toilet ending, follow through!))

Even with that criticism, it's still a 9/10 all the way. Almost perfect. Without scripting it myself, you've done the next best thing in creating a work I will love for decades to come.

Yeah the ending being cut short is the main criticism people have on this story. I believe its completely fair and in a way I agree with it. For some context, the main reason I never added a disposal scene is because I personally don't care too much for them and I was super burnt by the time I got to the end of the story. It took me hundreds of hours to finish and it was rewritten twice, so I was ready to get it off my plate.

Maybe in a year from now or something I'll secretly edit this story and add those scenes without letting anyone know...

Anyway, thanks so much for taking the time to write the kind comment. Means a lot! Cheers!

Hmmmm, yeah maybe I should have let Haylee be the one to do the deed. Oh well... what is written is written.

hey,iliketoread!I am a huge fan of yours. I followed you from your first post. Your philosophy is in line with mine, I always want to read and its detailed very long and very close to reality articles. Your details, and hints before the core scenes always fascinate me, and this new one of yours really caught my eye, so I strongly want to communicate with you about it. So there's this account.
You and chibitoy are the best writers I've found on this site. I've only read one of chibitoy's articles - By comparing it with each of your articles, I think that although you are both top writers in eka, I think your articles and chibitoy both have their I think your articles and chibitoy have their own merits.
First of all, your article has some very good hints. For example, the Elizabethan fish swallowing in your vore university is really very good. I really like the fish swallowing idea and the fish swallowing scene in your youthful curiosity, it makes me very excited every time I read it! And the sister holding your hand in youthful curiosity! plz create more and better hint scenes! Overall, I think you did a very, very good job of setting the stage before the vore, not to mention that you love a realistic vore as much as I do!
Secondly I think you have one shortcoming. That is the post-vore link. I think you put too few articles after vore. I think the length of the content before and after vore should be in the ratio of 6:4. youthful curiosity's post-vore part is especially lacking in this part of the scene, it vore the pre-vore part I think has done the best, and the back makes me feel a little disappointed. In Chinese, this is called "tiger's head and snake's tail" lol. there is a lot of content after the vore that can add color to the article, such as the mockery of prey, or the contrast between prey and pred, a perfect article, is not missing this part. chibitoy did a very good job in this regard.
I'm sorry to compare you to chibitoy, because you two are the best writers I've ever seen, and you two are the only ones who can compete. I can see from your comments that you are a writer who is constantly accepting mistakes, which is why I dared to make these suggestions to you, and I'm sorry if I offended you in any way. I check your user page almost every day and I will always be a huge fan. I hope you will keep your passion and love for vore and keep writing for fun with it.
Also if you are under financial pressure, you can open a pateron or fanbox, I will definitely support you financially, and of course I would like you to spend more time writing if you can, after all it is too torturous to wait for months at a time, but on the other hand, time has created your meticulous writing style, and that is what attracts me to you. It's a tangle lol.
The last thing I would really, really like to see is. chibitoy's user interface I don't know why I can't see any articles, have you saved or downloaded any of his articles, please do send them to me. Or if you can reach him, can you tell me the contact information?

Hey Avenger233, Thanks for leaving such a long detailed comment! I really appreciate it when people spend their time to write such rich comments. You're too kind with how you describe me as one of the best writers on this website. I think I'm okay, I still have a lot of improvement to do to my writing and how I tell stories.

The criticism that I don't do enough post-vore writing I believe is fair and I've gotten that feedback a lot. I really need to work on that, my biggest problem being that I can't ever seem to come up with any interesting post-vore writing. It all kinda seems like its been done before... but I guess thats a bad mentality for me to have.

I would never be offended by criticism on my stories. The only way I will get better is to hear what others think and keep an open mind to them. (And just writing more lol)

I don't see myself as being someone who would ever accept money for my writing but maybe that will change one day. I mainly just want people to enjoy my stories and hopefully get them inspired to write their own. The marcro/micro vore community as a whole has provided me with so much great free content that I wanted to find ways I can give back too.

Chibitoy removed his stories from his userpage a year ago which is really a shame. I really miss his writing too, he is definitely my favourite writer. He had a special touch which seemed to make the words in his stories dance around and react to your eyes. They would taunt, tease, laugh all while dancing to the story's indulgent paragraphs. My writing you can read, his you can feel.

OMG HOW DID I MISS THIS?!!

Ooookay, well fine, I know *I* wouldn't mind a review no matter how late it was. First off, I thought the slow buildup and teasing was fantastic. I did chuckle at times at the amount of setup that was needed to get things to happen; I know that feeling, trying to nudge characters more or less forcefully to get things moving lol. I think you managed to wring a lot of fun interactions out of a premise that could be kind of awkward to make work well.

Now for the shrinking part... okay, the fact that she'd hit the unknown red button like that on a family member might be the first sign that she was really a little shit :D I think ya did a good job with it although I'm always gonna be calling for more detail out the wazoo in those situations especially when it's his first time bein' tiny. The way you got him confessing had me laughing, and sometimes his actions had me head-slapping, but lots of good teasing there too.

Finally, at the moment of truth: I'll admit I hadn't pegged her as the sort that would do THAT, even in the circumstances, but then she did hit that button so... and anyway, it's just sooo hard to get non-psychos to do the deed that I gotta give you slack there. It felt a bit out of character for him to stop fighting at the end tho.

I loved her cheerful experimenting from the outside, it had the perfect tone to contrast with his plight, my only complaint was that the whole thing happened pretty fast. Maybe you'd burned out a little after all that leisurely buildup, but it's a shame to go so far and then rush through the end. No comment on disposal though since if ya aren't into it, absolutely skip it.

But anyhow, great work!!

Thanks for leaving a review, two months late is better than never!

I was super burnt out writing this story lol. In fact this story is the perfect example of, "Oh I committed so much time to it, I NEED to finish it now even though I don't want to."

So yeah, the ending is rushed so your complaint is my complaint too. I'm making it a rule to myself to never let that happen again... And I'll probably be avoiding stories this long for the foreseeable future. Gonna try moving to more vore-centric story for the next one. Less plot, more sauce.

Anyway, thanks so much for the comment, means a lot! (Fingers crossed for a new Hatter story soon...)

Somewhere out there there's a universe where Hailey swallowed Charles before Amelia got upset! Maybe then Amelia would at least feel a little remorse

There definitely is... Silly writer should have given Haylee a tiny too!

MisterNut

You should make another version of this where amelia gets startled when haylees dad knocks, and drops charles into her mouth, and neither of them respond to her father. Could go down the same route as the sister, just with haylee being the digester, or haylee pukes him out and he rants at his sister, causing this ending to happen again

If only I still had the willpower to even look at this story again... It would be cool to have an alternative version with Haylee as the true pred...

Not only am I super late to this story, but it's also late for me right now, so I hope I get get across how GOOD I thought it was. This is another one of those precious few stories that will get me to not only read, but read all the way through in one sitting. I really like the characterization you have. The dynamic between the siblings is top-notch vore quality. It takes a long time to get to the full pay off, but you included a lot of little teases to keep us entertained along the way. Honestly, for as long as it was, I was kinda hoping by the end that it *kept going*, but I think that's mostly just my tastes coming though. You did a very good job exploring and catering to the themes you wanted to include, and I'm looking forward to reading more of your stuff when I get the chance.

I'm glad you really enjoyed it and that the length didn't seem to be much of an issue for you. I feel like most people would probably prefer a single read to be half this length lol. I appreciate you taking the time to write the comment; I'm a big fan of a lot of your stories so its pretty sweet to see you reading my stuff! Hope you enjoy my other stories if and when you get the chance to read them.

Posted by TheDragonBoy 1 year ago Report

That's really cool that you're a fan of my stuff! Or at least it's really cool for me whenever an artist I like compliments something of mine, so I hope that's how it feels for you too. The length... *was* a bit of a problem for me. Honestly, my preferred length is closer to like 1/4 of this, or even 1/8. But that's a personal thing, and some stories legitimately take longer to tell and that's fine. What's really important is that yours was interesting enough for me to read all the way through it *anyway*- or that's what I think, anyway.
