If you’re in the mood for some angsty and smutty M/f non-con shrinking, you could hardly do better than Rain on the Windowsill by Littlest-Lily. Almost all of the saga is told from the viewpoint of our protagonist Lily as she becomes the target of Leo, who has long dreamed of keeping a shrunken woman and is convinced that Lily will come to share his dream. Both Lily and Leo wrestle with their own desires and consciences as Leo pushes Lily into shrunken Stockholm syndrome and beyond.

While there is exquisite detail to the juicy logistics of multiple size changes, we never lose sight of Lily’s emotional tempest as she wonders where either she or Leo should be taking this. Lily spends most of her time at three-inches-high, but Leo is very fond of expeditions into the microverse, and Lily is an excellent reporter of her sensory shifts. Leo is possibly the most complex predator I’ve encountered in Size Fantasy, and his instincts about Lily aren’t altogether off-target.

Cautionary tales are rarely so rewarding both smuttily and spiritually.
