#unintentional sizeshifting

[i-am-beckyu]

AU where a human shrinks to borrower size but instead of it being a super fast change where they're suddenly tiny, they shrink really slowly over a month or so and slowly freak as they turn OR vice versa where a borrower start slowly growing and still when the human discover him

idk why but I'm imagining the sbi with either phil shrinking or techno growing

Honestly that is such a cool idea!!!!

I love it as it is but like also imagine this situation right, but like a human Phil and borrower Techno have like known each other for a long time but they've not like met face to face. So Phil knows about Techno but Techno refuses to be any closer than up on a high shelf or behind a vent where it's safe.

Techno only really talks to Phil because he's lonely but he's to scared to do anything more because obviously all the stories of humans hurting borrowers etc.

So when he starts growing and can suddenly hit his head on the make shift door to his home in the walls, he starts getting concerned. Even if it's slow, he's getting bigger and can't tell why.

He doesn't mention this to Phil as he's not sure what the human will do with the knowledge his little friend intruder is getting to big for the walls- hence being easier to catch.

On the other end, Phil has noticed that he's suddenly getting shorter. At first it was just a few cms, him chalking it up to getting older and inevitably starting to shrink in height, but he measured his height and he was almost and whole 5 inches shorter! It didn't make sense!

He had tried to voice his concerns with Techno about it, but the borrower had been strangely silent for the past few weeks. He'd only ever gotten slight glimpses of them when chatting, and he was becoming concerned that something may have happened to his small friend.

It was at that moment that he heard a very small "hey phil" and was shocked to turn and see a what must have been a comparable barbie sized Techno standing behind him.

"I need help."

The two basically then talk about how the other has been growing/shrinking and don't really understand what's going on just that it keeps happening. Unsure if this is going to continue, Phil starts teaching Techno about how to do and use things as a human and Techno as a borrower.

I think then at some point it would be really good if the moment when they were both the same size, that Techno basically breaks down scared out of his mind with having to basically become and act human and is scared about it lasting forever. He's been alone for years and now he has to just take phils place basically and act like it's normal? Cue the two having a heart to heart again and the first hug either has had in a long long time. And they're both the same size so it's perfect.

Continuing further I think basically they'd both become the same size as the other and adjust to new life with Phil being a lot more out int the open then what Techno was and Techno just learning how to adjust. They'd probably be those sizes for a few months and then randomly they'd start switching back again.

They never figure out why it happens, just that it does and it continues on like this for basically the rest of their lives and they adapt to it. I'd say they end up doing work from home jobs lol.

That's my take. Thank you very much anon for the idea!!! I don't know if it was intentional, but you forgot to sign off lol. Def gave me a bit of brain brrrrrr action on this one.

Also sorry for my weird activity being online and not lol. Busy at work and wanting to concentrate on the fic so I'm kinda tunnel visioning my focuses on those and forgetting other socials exist at random times lol. I WILL KEEP MAKING THIS FIC AND IT WILL BE DONE BY MY BIRTHDAY! I SWEAR IT!

How do you feel about unintentional sizeshifting? Imagine shrinking while doing something mundane with your s/o and they just scoop you up and are trying not to laugh but also still fretting over you. making sure you don't have any dizziness or vertigo. Super gentle hands and slow movements.

Ahhh this is so cute!! 🥺💕 I love this idea so much, I can't decide if I prefer it when one half of the couple has no idea that their S/O is a size-shifter until it accidentally happens one day, or if I prefer when the sizeshifting happens quite often and they're always there to support their S/O (and fawn over how tiny and adorable they are + completely dote on them 🥺) until they go back to their regular size! 💕

hi!! i’m super new to this whole g/t thing, so besides the obvious and also everything in the intro post your pinned links to, do you have like a run down of basic g/t words and phrases?? like what is a borrower, etc. thank you and have a super great day :3

Uhhhh I'm not the most well versed in this community, honestly, but I'll give it a shot!

G/t: Short for giant/tiny. Refers to a story or character dynamic where the characters happen to have an impressive difference in size.

Borrower: A concept specifically taken from the books The Borrowers - borrowers are small people that live in the walls of humans' houses. They steal to survive, taking what they can get away with, doing their best not to be caught and thus expose themselves to danger. Depictions of them vary from tiny humans to more animalistic humanoids.

Sizeshifter: A character that has the ability to get bigger or smaller. Changes in size can be controlled, but are very often emotion-based as well.

Fearplay: I cannot stress enough that this is not an NSFW term. It refers specifically to scenes where a tiny is cornered by a giant and is panicking about it. It can be unintentional on the giant's part, or the giant might be purposefully toying with the tiny.

That's... all I can think of for right now? If anyone has questions about terms, or if people more familiar with this community has anything to add that I missed, you're welcome and encouraged to speak up!

Emotional Surprises

Notes: Psst, @baka-monarch. I love your headcannons and this story is based off the one with Phil adopting a shapeshifter Wilbur and a tiny Techno. Honestly surprised with myself that I didn’t write dragon dadza, but knowing me it’ll happen eventually. I love what you do and can’t wait for whatever you got coming next! I hope you enjoy this story!

Wilbur was panicking. He was just walking through the woods with his tiny brother tucked safely in his pocket when he heard someone else’s footsteps nearby. In his panic ridden state he had run in the opposite direction, hoping that whoever was there would ignore him.

He didn’t make it far when he felt a telltale tugging inside of him. He quickly dug his hands into his pocket and pulled Techno out. Techno squirmed and smacked Wilbur at the sudden grabbing but Wilbur only gave him a hushed apology as he set his brother in a small crevice at the base of a tree.

Techno stopped his struggling as soon as he realized what was about to happen. He begrudgingly hid himself in the crevice. Techno could only watch as Wilbur’s face scrunched up in slight pain.

Then, Wilbur began to grow. It was always a strange sight to see, especially from Techno’s perspective. Wilbur had very little control over his sizeshifting abilities and would often change size whenever he got a particularly strong emotion. In this case it was fear, which normally results in a growth spurt. And since Techno was only a few inches tall, watching Wilbur grow larger than a human was a terrifying scene. 

Sometimes, Wilbur will have slight control over his abilities and shrink down to properly hang out with Techno. Techno appreciated those moments. Having someone his own size around him was comforting. Having a literal giant around him was scary, but knowing it was Wilbur helped lessen the fear.

Wilbur’s growth spurt was over in around a minute. When they were unintentional they happened relatively quickly, but because of that Wilbur was disoriented for about another minute afterwards. Techno watched sadly as Wilbur rubbed his forehead, knowing he couldn’t help his brother at their current sizes.

Suddenly, the crunching of leaves was heard nearby. Techno froze and ducked into the shadows and he saw a man in green approaching the area. Techno realized in horror that Wilbur was too big to hide and was probably too disoriented still to realize what was happening.

“Hello? I heard someone, are you alri- oh.” Techno could only watch as the man looked at Wilbur in shock. Techno knew from first-hand experience that seeing someone bigger than you was a terrifying experience. And this man did have a slightly terrified look on his face. Techno hoped that meant he would just run away.

Instead of running away however, a strange mix of concern and determination replaced the fear, though it was still showing in the way the man slightly trembled.

“Mate? Are you- are you alright?” The man didn’t move as he asked the question. He did flinch when Wilbur suddenly moved his hand down from his head, finally having a hold of his bearings again. And if the man took a step back when Wilbur’s gaze finally landed on him, neither of them mentioned it.

“Wha- me?” Wilbur moved to point towards himself, confused on why the man was trying to talk to him and not running away. He only received a mute nod in response. 

“Yea, uh, I’m alright. This just happens.” He stared at the man on the ground. Wilbur really didn’t know what he was doing and was terrified that the man would look at the tree Techno was at and find him. Techno did not need that on top of Wilbur’s growth spurt.

“This just happens? What just happens? Getting headaches?” The man looked truly confused at this point. Wilbur was just as confused. The headache was just a small side effect of him growing, which was the bigger issue here-

Oh. This man didn’t see Wilbur grow. He just found a giant, disoriented boy in the woods. Suddenly everything about the situation was clearer in Wilbur’s mind. One glance at the man showed he was still thoroughly confused.

Without thinking, Wilbur reached out for the man. His hand paused mid-reach as the man stumbled backwards, his eyes blown wide and the panic returning tenfold. Wilbur realized his mistake as the man began to breathe heavily in his panic. He could do that with Techno because they knew each other and had years of trust between them. He only just met this man.

The man stumbled backwards again and tripped over his own feet, landing on his bottom. He was still hyperventilating at the fact that Wilbur had almost grabbed him. Wilbur felt extremely guilty and wanted nothing more than to help. He couldn’t at this size though.

Wilbur took a deep breath and focused. He closed his eyes and willed himself to shrink back down. He knew that this didn’t always work but it was worth a shot in this disaster of a situation.

When he opened his eyes, he was surprised to find himself at his normal height. He took a step towards the man before glancing at the tree where his brother was hidden. He pondered for a moment before making up his mind and going over to the tree and kneeling down. His brother quickly came out of the crevice and Wilbur was quick to scoop him up and hide him in his pocket. If something went wrong and he had to run, he wanted Techno to be with him.

Then Wilbur made his way towards the panicking man who now had his head between his knees, still breathing heavily. Wilbur noted that the hat that was previously on the man’s head was now discarded in the grass. He knelt down in front of the man and hovered his hands around him, apprehensive about what he should do next. 

“Can I, um, touch you now?” The man whipped his head up at the voice and was surprised to see Wilbur as the same size as himself. He turned his gaze to see the hovering hands and the look of pure regret on Wilbur’s face. 

He nodded and couldn’t help but smile at the relieved look on Wilbur’s face. Wilbur took the man’s hands into his own and began rubbing small circles on the back of his hands.

Wilbur was startled when the man suddenly let out a bark of laughter, his eyes wide once more. But this time it seemed less from panic and more from realization.

“You can change sizes. That’s what just happens sometimes. Mate, that makes a lot more sense. Well, not really. But it clears this situation up, that’s for sure.” Wilbur smiled at that and let out a small breath of laughter as well.

“You’re right. It doesn’t make sense. And I’m sorry for scaring you like that. I wasn’t thinking when I did that.” The man smiled and unfurled himself a bit more. Wilbur looked at him confused before the man reached out and pulled him into a tight hug. Wilbur was shocked for a moment before adjusting himself so that Techno wouldn’t be squished before tentatively returning the gesture.

“Mate, I probably would have done the same thing. It was super scary and if you grow like that again, I’d like it if you didn’t just grab me. But you’re forgiven, kiddo.” Wilbur pushed away from the hug and held the man at a small distance so he could look him in the eyes.

“You say that like there is going to be a next time.” The man laughed and stood up. He reached a hand out, which a confused Wilbur took, and the man pulled him to his feet.

“Sorry. I got ahead of myself. First things first, my name is Philza, but you can call me Phil. Secondly, do you have a place to go? Or would you like to come live with me? I got a nearby cabin and I just thought-” Phil stopped when Wilbur barreled into him and hugged him once again.

“Yes! Yes please! Anything is better than living in the middle of nowhere!” Phil smiled and pat Wilbur on the head. He jerked his head to the side in a silent ‘follow me.’ Wilbur trailed behind Phil as they began their walk.

“I’m Wilbur, by the way.” Phil smiled at him and they continued on their walk in silence. 

Eventually, they approached a small cabin among the trees. Wilbur gasped in excitement and he could feel Techno shift in anticipation for a new place to explore. Phil smiled fondly at Wilbur and began walking towards the cabin.

He threw his gaze over his shoulder with a soft smile.

“Welcome home, Wilbur.”

---

As time passed, Wilbur became increasingly comfortable in Phil’s home. It had come to the point where Wilbur had accidentally called him Dad. He remembered Phil freezing in place and staring at him before tears began threatening to fall. Wilbur will never forget the happy smile or the tight hug that followed. And if Wilbur began calling him Dad more often, nobody said anything.

Phil was a caring person and wanted the best for his new son figure (could he call Wilbur son now? Wilbur did call him Dad). He began helping Wilbur get a better grasp on his shifting abilities to the best of his abilities. He himself was no sizeshifter, but it was easy to see how Wilbur’s emotions affected his shifting.

With enough time, Wilbur began changing size at his own will more often. He would still have random bursts of change, but they were much less often than before. Those bursts are actually how Phil found out Wilbur could also shrink to a few inches. It was very strange holding Wilbur in his hands.

Techno however, had still not formally met Phil. When they first moved in, he and Wilbur both agreed that Wilbur would try to get to know Phil and determine how trustworthy he was. It would be like it was only Phil and Wilbur in the house, so if Phil had other intentions behind his actions they would appear in due time.

But it had been some time now, about two months to be exact. And Techno was beginning to wonder why they ever had their doubts about this strange man. He treated Wilbur like a son and even did his best to help Wilbur control his shifting. Techno had tried to help years ago, but emotions were not Techno’s strong suit. Phil however, managed to get Wilbur in a better place and helped him control his abilities better.

He had finally decided that he was ready for Wilbur to show him to Phil. He knew this would be strange. He has kind of known Phil for about two months now while Phil knew nothing about him. Going from living undetected in the walls to revealing himself would be a major change. Wilbur was the only other person who even knew Techno existed. Well, there was that one kid but who knows where he’s at now-

He was startled out of thoughts as soon as he heard Phil approach Wilbur. Techno was currently nestled in Wilbur’s hair, the fluffiness being extremely comfortable. But he was as nervous as Wilbur was. This was about to test the trust they had with Phil, this could change everything in Wilbur and Phil’s relationship. Techno knew Wilbur held him over Phil, but he couldn’t help the nagging feeling that Wilbur wouldn’t help him if something went wrong.

Wilbur took a shaky breath and Phil looked at him worriedly. Phil stayed quiet though and waited for Wilbur to say the first words.

“Dad, I, um, have someone I would like you to meet.”

Phil raised an eyebrow at Wilbur’s shaky statement. He was clearly confused and about to voice his confusion when Wilbur reached his hand into his hair and gently grabbed hold of something in there.

His confusion changed to shock as he realized that Wilbur just pulled a tiny boy out of his hair. He watched as the tiny boy situated himself so that he was sitting on Wilbur’s palms and facing Phil.

Techno was terrified. He was now out in the open in Phil’s line of sight. He tried to read Phil’s expression but he couldn’t really tell what was going on in Phil’s mind.

Techno and Wilbur both tensed up when Phil took a deep breath. Wilbur seemed ready to run if anything went wrong and Techno was ready to hide in his pocket once the moment called for it.

“So, there’s two of you?” Techno shot a confused glance towards Wilbur, who seemed just as confused at the response.

“Yea. My twin just doesn’t change size like I do.”

“Well, I guess I have two sons now!” 

Techno couldn’t help the relieved smile that found its way onto his face. He couldn’t believe that he doubted Phil for even a moment. Phil had nothing but happiness painted on his face as well, the prospect of having another son being rather exciting to him.

Phil reached out a finger towards Techno and Techno instantly grasped it with his own hands, noting this to be a handshake right away.

“I’m Phil, but you probably already knew that.” Techno smiled at the man in front of him.

“Name’s Technoblade, but please just call me Techno.”

“Good to meet you, Techno.”

Techno never thought that he would feel safe with anyone but Wilbur and that damn kid from long ago but now he had Phil. He knew he would have to go over some of his boundaries with Phil, but he knew the father figure would understand.

This family was going to be worth it.

Torex and Eugene

Name: Torex | Gender: Male | Species/Race: Incubus | Age: VERY ancient demon | Height: 8ft (he's a sizeshifter however so he can change his height at will) | Eye Color: Imperial Red | Hair Color: Black (bit of a messy undercut type of hairstyle in his true form) | Appearance: His skin would be all red, he'd have long sharp black claws, sharp teeth, large horns that mostly look like how deer antlers would be except a dark grey color (meaning he technically has more points on his horns than just one), his legs have a slight bit of fur on him and his feet are hooves (he doesn't have fur ALL over his body, just on his legs), and finally a long black devil-style tail. However, when he's disguised as a human (he has to do that so he can blend in and be with the preacher he took a liking too) His human appearance is a bit simple, his hair changes and it looks much more smoothed back and much more tidy than it usually looks, he wears a red and black suit and some black jeans, he has some fancy looking boots he wears as well, overall- he's a fancy lad when he's disguised as a human, his eyes are a soft light brown and of course, he has none of his demon features, can't just give himself away to people after all. (He has facial hair in both forms technically, a circle goatee- I KEEP FORGETTING TO SAY ABOUT THE FACIAL HAIR I HAVE BECOME A IMMUNE TO IT DAMMIT) | Personality: He's mostly cold to everyone else, cruel and he loves to mess with people, he doesn't really like humanity as a whole BUT... There is one human he likes- no, absolutely a d o r e s, and that's Eugene, when he first met he honestly never expected Eugene to be a preacher, it was literally a love at first sight moment for Torex, seeing Eugene was enough to make whatever's left of that cold dead heart spark back up (aka he became hella gay for this preacher), he loves to torment him and flirt with him whenever he can get a chance, he plays with his mind a little bit and invades Eugene's thoughts with his own, he'd never ACTUALLY hurt the preacher of course, its all just a bit of fun, and besides, he truly loves him too much to do that (so p much a bitch to the rest of humanity, cruel to em and likes to mess with people and probs kill or eat them, but to Eugene- thats his right there, no touchy- anyone else touch he kill) | Side Facts: He has been summoned by others before, but he really never cared as much for them, he just fed off their energy as much as he could and that was it, nothing more, or nothing less, he mostly enjoyed torturing them, even though Incubi usually don't kill or do any of that to their prey, he just never cared about that rule, it was pointless and he'd defy it, he'd kill if he wanted to! But when he was "summoned" by Eugene, that was when he knew what love actually felt like, Eugene seemed so innocent, and he is of course! To an extent, although... Summoning an Incubus usually means everything BUT innocent... While Eugene denies actually trying to summon him and claims it was an accident, well, Torex knows better than that, it doesn't help considering he can actually read Eugene's thoughts so there's uh, that factor.

Name: Eugene Woodward | Nicknames: Gene/Woody | Gender: Male | Species/Race: Human | Occupation: Preacher/Priest | Age: 35 | Height: 5'3" | Eye Color: Baby Blue | Hair Color: Light Brown (he keeps his hair very tidy, however you usually never see it due to the hat he wears, its a black Western/Amish hat, you know those hats you usually seen on preachers before, you know the one m sure) | Appearance: He wears the typical preacher's clothing, he usually wears that, however when he goes home of an evening, he changes into either a sweater, or something long sleeved, it keeps him comfy and warm, and its one of his favorite types of clothing, a sweater, turtleneck, etc- it doesn't matter so long as it keeps him warm n comfy, he wears a cross necklace almost 24/7 unless of course he's sleeping, then he just puts it on his dresser, he would rather keep the cross close just in case any mishaps were to happen (he has some fancy suits and various fancy clothing aside from the long sleeved stuffs) (he also has some stubble on his face) | Personality: He's kind, sweet, friendly and very outgoing, he takes very good care of his church and usually, overworks himself, its a tough job taking care of a church and doing all that preaching, he's got a lot of responsibilities but still, he could uh take better care of himself, he... he won't deny, deep down he does love Torex, he didn't really at first, he was TERRIFIED of the demon, although he DID technically summon him, it... It really wasn't on purpose however but I'll get into those details on side facts for now (tl;dr: Kind, sweet, friendly, and a very outgoing man) | Side Facts: He summoned Torex by "accident" and by that I mean, he was... Honestly curious, he wanted to know if "demons" really existed or was it all just some bullshit people made up over the years, he... he didn't expect it to actually work, he was skeptical of actual demons himself but now, he "regrets" everything, he summoned a LITERAL demon who won't. stop. tormenting. him- What's worse, is, it was an I N C U B U S he summoned and NOT a regular demon, or well he thinks that's the worst one. ...He's hella gay for Torex, like- he will deny it super hard, he'll never admit he, a preacher, a man of faith and purity is in love with a literal d e m o n from the pits of Hell, you know- this can basically sum his state of mind in a nutshell ever since the accidental unintentional demon summoning: He's in a state of pure denial and panicked gay more than likely.
