Grrl Power #965 – Tab AAAAAAA into Slot a
No smash cut for Maxima. If for no other reason, they used up the most of the choker’s charge while they were futzing with the enchantment. She’ll have to wait a bit for it to recharged before she can take it out for a drive.
I decided I really wanted the break panels on the bottom half of the page, so the pictures Sydney is showing Dabbler are unfortunately a little small. For that reason, I’m going to make the double res version of the comic over at Patreon available to everyone. I do hope everyone gets what Sydney is putting out there. If not, I’m sure the first few comments will spell it out. If you’re having trouble figuring it out, just keep in mind that Frix is two feet taller than Sydney, and saying that he is proportionally larger all over would… er, not do Frix justice.
Edit: Whoops, I autopiloted the patreon post and made it just for supporters. I’ve updated it so everyone can see it now. Here’s a direct link.
Tamer: Enhancer 2 – Progress Update:
This might be a bad idea, but I thought I’d post my progress with the latest novel. I keep say it’s getting close to being done, but I feel like I’ve been saying that for several months at least. The problem is, while I’ve been working on it fairly consistently, sometimes I’m only getting a few paragraphs done each evening once I get all the comic work out of the way. Actually, I think the thing that slows me down the most is re-reading chapters I’ve already finished, most of which have entertaining scenes in them. I get little minor edits done while I do that, but it’s not conducive to rapid progress.
Unfortunately, the book is closing in on 170K words, and I feel like it’s really back heavy. There’s a lot going on in the final few chapters, to the point that I’m probably going to cut a character I really wanted. Maybe there will be a book three? There’s enough set up in this book to justify it, certainly, but these are full length novels here, and since they’re fanfic (I don’t think that’s the right term since I’m not using any of the original characters or locations, just the basic setup) I’m not charging for them. I’m writing them because it entertains me, but at some point, I should probably consider writing something original.
Anyway, the actual progress report: I (think) I’m a chapter and a half from finishing. Oh, and a sex scene I left with just a [sex scene here] notation because I wasn’t in the mood to write it at the time. (I don’t do any kind of outlines for the stuff I write, I just kind of write until it’s where I want it.) Once I actually finish, I’ll go and do a pacing and continuity pass. Basically, I want each scene to have the right weight.
It’s a literary pet peeve of mine when an author reveals important information to the characters/reader and the characters have no reaction. I bought a 3 novels in one audiobook, and immediately in the first chapter, there’s The Thing That Happens which motivates everything else in the story. A massive event that changes the whole world, so the characters have no reaction whatsoever and decide to go and feed the chickens. It wasn’t like a dragon attacks, but the main characters realize they’re not equipped to fight it so they run away, it was like, the characters are walking down a road, and the next sentence is; “After the dragon attacked and the 5 nations’ armies gathered to battle it, taking a dozen hours and thousands of men to bring it down, the characters decided to set up camp for the night.” And then you re-read the sentence three times because you’re sure you didn’t read it right, and then finally realize that the author doesn’t want to be telling the story he seems to be telling. Or he’s like, “yeah, yeah, that’s just stuff that happened. I want to write about how the main character organized the rocks in the fire ring.”
Basically I got about 17 minutes into a 27 hour audiobook and quit right then and there. What if the fun of writing anything if the characters don’t react to it? I guess authors like that are… anti-Spielbergs?
Anyway, once I’ve finished that pass, I’ll put a call out for some proofers. Please, when I do, keep in mind that the book will be released for free a few weeks after that, and I really do need people who are willing to go through 170,000 words to tell me how many times I transposed “an” with “and.”
July’s vote incentive is up!
You guys don’t know who this is yet. (Her name is Xerxa.) I will give you one single guess what she might be from. (And no, it’s not Dabbler’s mother.) It was a piece I had half finished from a little while ago and given my time constraints this month, I threw a little polish and some background on it and here you are. Unfortunately there aren’t nine separate versions because she’s not wearing a ton to begin with. Hopefully you can read about that soon. I hope you like it, personally I think it turned out pretty good.
As always, nude version are up at Patreon.
Double res version will be posted over at Patreon. Feel free to contribute as much as you like.
The reflections (maybe HUD?) on her glasses is throwing me off. Sydney looks like she’s rocking holographic blush stickers.
i mean, that absolutely is something she would do
Having been in a situation where there was a bit of a mismatch of proportion, my partner at the time did not appreciate bottoming out the suspension on my strut, so to speak. So I’d reckon to say that for the average woman, a bit of length and girth is fine, but all things in moderation. Sydney and Frix are definitely not in that realm of moderation.
I’m guessing that potion is more to allow for girth/length compatibility without incurring significant permanent damage/stretching/pain.
Based on the little footnote on the bottom of the page, I’m guessing Frix is supposed to drink it and it will make his size half of normal.
I think that note just means it can make wildly differing physiologies capable of breeding.
Ah, the potion of accommodation.
Good for above, between and below
But it’s also good for the knotty response too
Most folks getting wrecked don’t even realise that there is an over rail crossing just up the hill, height level with the bridge.
The reason the bridge was even raised was due to the 8″ gradient difference in track from the level crossing down to the bridge and up, the adjustment removed that gradient making it flat and allowing for faster trains, the road traffic height gain is just a collateral side effect.
And no they can’t lower the road as a major municipal sewer runs under it.
Not sure if euphemism
i think it was :P especially that last part, mentioning the sewer
Nope. There’s a real place where the space under the bridge used to be only 11’8″. There’s an entire YouTube channel dedicated to all the trucks that tear open the top of their vehicle attempting to fit under it. YouTube channel is yovo68, btw. I got recommended it by chance once. About a year ago, I think, they redid the train tracks on top of the bridge, incidentally raising it by 8 inches. The road can’t be lowered to accomodate more vehicles because the sewer is in the way.
This is all in refrence to the first picture Sydney chose. You can see the 11’8″ sign on the left.
glad to see someone else recognize one of the famous truck killing bridges
There is another one of these just north of Syracuse, NY, USA. It is a different bridge with a mile of flashing lights and warning signs in front of it and it still claims 2-3 trucks a year from drivers who assume the usual margin of tolerance is in play even when it clearly isn’t.
Oh and the Syracuse one can’t be lowered under the water level of the adjacent lake otherwise the road would be perpetually flooded. The area around the bridge is recovered marsh.
That one is especially more dangerous too because they armored it to keep people from being stupid. There’s a special steel brace in front of the track to keep them from messing up the track in the sewer lines.
But every so often somebody gets stupid and decides to run it.
particularly RVs because they don’t figure in the height of their air conditioners to the height of the rig and people don’t actually measure it
The rail bridge near my former home in Michigan had a rather distinct dent in the bottom of the steel frame. I hate to think how hard somebody had to hit it, as heavy as that steel was.
Plus Storrow Drive here in Boston. Bridges as low as 10’6. A rental truck moving in students gets stuck most years. (Also the occasional delivery driver).
There’s one of those bridges in Leominster, MA too, right near the train station.
They even have a complicated warning system set up.
Sensors look for oncoming over height trucks, and when they see one, they immediately turn the light before the bridge red. Truck sees this, and accelerates to make the light – “Ramming Speed!”
More seriously, without the warning system, they see about a wreck a week, with it it’s closer to one wreck a month, and those collisions frequently destroy businesses – it’s preferred lunch seems to be trucks for moving companies, but the bridge takes all comers. Military, residential, and business.
Soooooo….. is this an indication of what the next incentive will be?
So… what is “Type: Dick Image File” and I don’t recognize file size measurement in CM. Is Sydney using some strange operating system that we all need to be educated about?
Or was that joke just a lot too on the nose?
Sydney made a fake “dick pic” image file. It says “The file ‘Space Hog’ is too large for intended destination.” I’ll let you guess where the destination is. The “file size” is his dick size 38.1 CM (15 inches).
*Vulcan eyebrow rises. Says nothing.*
…well that is definitely not going to fit in an average human without a lot of work…
Jonah Falcon has said it’s ruined more than one relationship for him, and he’s supposedly not far off from the size listed…
Sydney is also 5′ even. He is hung exactly 1/4 of her total height. She’s going to get stuffed like a thanksgiving tofurky.
Hold up, I thought they had gone all the way in the ship, guess it was was just “minor sub-aquatic spelunking” then.
Regarding the second Enhancer tome I said this before and I’ll say it again, take as much time as you want for it. For artists rushing only leads to negative outcomes (dissatisfaction and burnout being the 0 and 10 in the scale) so it makes no sense. I’d rather read book 3 *nudge-nudge wink wink* in 4 years than see book 2 tomorrow if you end up disliking the final product.
Also, again, maybe it’s a long shot or unlikely but as I said try contacting MSE to obtain his blessing for Enhancer as an official “What if” story to the IP. You never know, might turn out to be the start of a second career as a writer.
The old 11’8 bridge. I drove out of my way once to see it.
Yes the can opener still lives and eats even after the upgrade just not as much it seems. When I saw the picture I was okay I know what’s going on now heh
We have a bridge like that in our neighborhood. There’s actually a full 12′ clearance below the bridge, so most trucks will fit under it – so long as they’re not too LONG. The road dips down to go under the bridge, and well, trailer length + geometry = can opener.
Oh, a tall bridge. The Massachusetts Avenue Bridge over Memorial Drive, next to MIT, is nine feet, with a healthy slope up on each side.
Ours is also on a campus, Cal Poly SLO in California. The school has a bunch of signs saying “Trucks use alternate route”, but at least twice a year, someone misses the signs, and ends up stuck.
Cue frix being used to the OTHER kind of potion.
And also, Dave never telling us if the potion Frix expected was to resize him, or resize her…
Later Frix will be asking Dabbler for switching potion type, 145 pages down the line, and STILL not answering our question.
Maybe it’s MysticLube, the magical salve that allows nearly anything to slip in nearly anywhere.
Available in Cherry, Phongfruit, and Spicenut flavors at all We-Went-There Adult Boutiques…
You don’t drink lube. Plus it’s for her to drink not him. That’s why she asked topical. Frisk would know because I’m assuming frisk uses it a bit. Especially since he didn’t have a problem with prinprin asking him to impale her.
Dabbler tells Sydney to drink it, so it seems pretty clear that it’s mean to, um, add elasticity. She could make a fortune selling it to maternity hospitals.
aaaand there is the other joke about being careful sitting down, if you forgot your panties!!! :SD :D
What, you might lose your bar stool?
:D :D :D yeah, It would be wise to fix a big wide plank of wood to your feet, while you go in to retrieve your bar stool!!!!!! :D :D
Kudos for Dabbler sneaking in a “this may not surprise you” as present in many genital-resizing scam clickbait. Still giggling!!
Okay…imagine. Temporarily resized Halo. Or Dabbler mixing other things into that potion in a fit of hilarity. And imagine the beatdown after…also…Smash Cut. Think about it…think…about…it.
i was imagining that potion making you temporarily…. stretchy..
you know, like in some, hem, unrealistically drawn hentais…
Maybe like the Xanth Accommodation spell. it changes both of them towards a middle ground.
the conversation here are reminding me of an old fantasies and furries debate.
Would it / Should it,
a debate on if sex between a human and inhuman entity *fantasy/mythical/legendary creatures* or furries would be
1: safe for one or both partners
or
2: pleasurable for one or both partners
male human to female creature, female human to male creature, or even male to male or female to female *surprisingly many of these also fell into the not side of the debate*
however the crux was, its fiction, a fantasy, if you want to make it safe go ahead; heck, that’s the very backbone of the Monster girl fantasy genre so popular right now in manga and anime.
the debate comes up if you want to be more sci-fi, or give them anatomy fitting the creature that they resemble…especially at their body size.
(the Ninja turtles were a horror show..Run April!)
also Donald Duck…so no, you rarely if ever want to be biologically accurate, because more often than not you end up with these two awkward scenarios.
1: Its possible but the experience for the inhuman is underwhelming (most often with male human on female creature as the human is too small, too soft, lacks certain additional features needed for stimulus, can’t last long enough if trying to be more like the animal, ect…)
2: Its not safe, even foreplay could be dangerous; and the awkward part being this ended up mostly being, female human to male creature. Leaning the fantasy more in favor of men even if as “selfish lovers” in example 1 there.
in the end it feels like so long as it fits the tone and narrative you are going for do whatever. If its pure fantasy or a hentai manga biology be damned, the lady is half mammal half arachnid biology went out the window at the conception of the idea.
if you are trying to be more dramatic, realistic, alien, then yeah, get exotic, use foreplay, sex adaptors, avatar bodies, mental links, we won’t hold it against you if the five foot something human and the vaguely…partially…humanoid thirteen foot crab-ish alien have fallen in love with each other but can’t do it sexually, but will use foreplay manuals and “toys”.
You clearly left out a significant portion of the possibilities:
3. It’s perfectly *safe* for the human male on female fish. It’s just incredibly underwhelming for the human male and frustrating for both.
4. I’m not sure how the male fish to human female could work.
I’m fully aware that there’s a vast array of marine life of which I know nothing of its reproductive cycle. I’m not claiming to be a marine biologist. All I know is *some* fish have reproductive cycles that work in a way where the above would be accurate. I don’t know the full list of fish, but I think salmon is on it, but it’s not just salmon. I have the impression it’s a common fish reproductive cycle, but I don’t really know.
I have seen some who point out while the mer-people have scales the tail fin is horizontal like a marine mammal so just give them dolphin like penises and vaginas *although sometimes hidden under scale flaps*.
if even fish, there is a hole, but that falls under the male human can get off but the cloaca isn’t made for sex so its not as erogenous for her…well maybe its like anal for her. But yeah, keep it fish and the merman is going full oral or fingers to please the woman…maybe he likes his cloaca tickled.
Ehhhhh, there are stories out there about women having sex with dolphins…. Don’t know the veracity, buuuut Marineland rumors and such. Think there was also a SciFi story or book that had such a scene.
which is not safe,
just because someone will try doesn’t mean it is safe, a male dolphin’s phallus is LONG, and prehensile, not to mention the thrusting of this animal could easily break a human spine and cause massive internal damage.
this is an animal capable of propelling its self out of water and skipping on the surface. Not something you’d want jabbing between your legs.
the stories I have heard, including the arrest of a marine biologist involved her using her hands, not direct intercourse.
you can find erotica books of women having sex with dinosaurs, so as I said its fiction. It is when you want to be realistic that you should pay closer attention to the tone issues any discrepancies with the rest of the setting.
On top of that whole “massively large and strong” issue you point out, I’ve heard, from what seemed to be a credible source, that dolphin ejaculate exits at a high enough velocity to kill any human engaged in penetrative intercourse with one.
We can all agree if you are doing mermaid/merman erotica lean more into the fantasy because either option for biology is going to be either awkward and underwhelming or dangerous for the human.
Also fun fact: it seems most times I’ve had this discussion the conversation will either end up as a mer-person, or a centaur discussion. Something goes for popularity in fantasy/legends as sexually drawn to humans I suppose.
Sydney’s blessed existence is really wrecking the Everyman vibe.
If Frix is “necessarily familiar with that particular potion”, why doesn’t he have it already on hand?
of course there would be female and male versions!!!
or even ‘adjust your charms’ to allow *her* version to be allowed in?? :D :P
One supposition is that he does, but out of awkwardness, Sydney has not broached the subject with him, wanting to try to take care of the “presented conundrum” beforehand if possible. So when she does bring it up, Frix’ll produce said supply, Sydney will say no thanks, she already ate, he’ll insist out of concern, classic miscommunication comedy.
If we go with battery sizes, AAAAAAA would be only fraction of millimetres thick…
OH~! It’s Succubus Milk! (please tell me it’s succubus milk). In a lot of fiction drinking the milk of a succubus will slowly give you a percentage of the “abilities” of a succubus. Ie, be able to handle more, more frequently, with less likely of injury and is often used in training new succubi. In small portions though it’s always used to increase a man/woman’s capacity. Pretty common in stories involving them truth be.
Just had a thought. Could Dabbler have given Sydney a Test tube containing water, a drop of Whiskey and red dye to make her “Relax and Enjoy the experience.” Looks like Our little ‘TomBoy’ is growing up. Next thing you know the ‘Girls’ will get larger and Sydney will sport a New Dew (Hairstyle). I think she does look better with her long hair down and glasses off…..But loose the ‘My little Pony’ pantys.
Sydney may mature a bit psychologically but the character is into her early twenties. I doubt the “girls are going to grow much unless she gets pregnant. IRL, yeah those other things might happen but Syd’s appearance, right down to the My Little Pony’s, is probably stable. It’s part of her character.
hey, is that the Famous 11 Ft 8 “Can Opener” bridge?
man, i LOVE those videos!
Honestly, I hate Fury Romance. It was good for a quick joke, maybe a weird side story but right now it turns into a major eye sore. I might just start reading Fred Perries Golddigger Comics for somewhat entertaining furries. Or I could just skip to the endgame and go for Herbie Popnecker.
No-one’s forcing you to read this if you don’t like it.
I know some people don’t like books or stories with a large word count. But in my opinion, as long as every detail is used to progress the story forward, a bigger word count means I get to enjoy it longer. Now if you have enough set up from the second book to support a third, then that will be awesome. If you also want to write an original story for your loyal fans to enjoy, then you have both my financial and emotional support. Continue the hard work, and do try not to stress over it too much.
Now I can’t stop thinking about The Sofa Problem: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_sofa_problem
Or the Family guy one
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QflrU7V5HLg
Heh, I actually got to live that problem once when helping my mother move a sofa into her home. The only door has an L shaped entryway.
PIVOT!
something else comes to mind thinking about “being able to take it”, discussing if it relaxes her, increases elasticity for a short time ect..
Achilles, does his skin and other tissues stretch like a normal human’s just not going beyond the point of where they would tear, or would it be like trying to shove a hot dog into a too thin steel pipe?
Space poppers!
I saw the TE2 update! I volunteer as tribute!!!
Well then… I guess Sydney is having a very happy birthday tonight.
I get all the jpegs except the upper right one. I fail to see how the kitty does not fitz given the kitty iz sitz. Also was that… hentai juice? Will it make Sydney stretchy or make Frix’s frixer less… frixy.
I’d say it’s a pussycat. Given that a pussycat is directly above a dickpic, does it mean Sydney prefers to be on top?
I’ll show myself out.

large animal trying to fit into small box. “box” is a euphemism for female genitalia
and now THIS can be taken as a sexual metaphor LoL
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ga1Hb8yVYbQ
I was hoping I made the joke obvious but now I understand why the “r/whooosh” is a thing.
in the next comic. she will become. https://youtu.be/BiCQEfZzVlU
you need to add ‘rule34’ to that search… :P
Interesting way to handle the situation.
Now is it nanotechnology, magic, some combination of both or simply a placebo and nothing actually changes?
“too big cat trying to fit inside too small box” would be funnier of Frix was more feline looking instead of canid looking

Must be pretty handy to know a sex expert, a sexpert if you will, who can help answer any intimacy related problems you encounter.
The top of page cast pic of Halo I have today is the blank wide eyes panicked/screaming one. Which is kind of hilarious with this page and it’s comments
The name of the tincture could also have been “Something’s Knot Wright”.
The human body is quite flexible. The average vag passes an entire human and head through it.
Furthermore, 2 foot size differences are not that uncommon. I have been in this situation myself, and it isn’t an automatic dealbreaker if your partner loves a challenge.
Let me give you a very well known example.
Shaquille O’Neal is 7′ 1″. His girlfriend Nicole Alexander is 5′ 2″ and Nicole has been quite explicit about their relationship.
https://www.viralhoops(dot)com/15-pictures-of-tall-nba-players-making-regular-people-look-tiny/
Re: childbirth, the head (and shoulders) of a newborn are tiny compared to even those of a toddler, and there is a lot of (natural) hormonal prep for this event to be possible. Yet even with both those considerations, it’s still an incredibly uncomfortable process that frequently results in significant tissue tearing and months of recovery time, even if all goes well.
A baby’s head is not tiny. It’s roughly a quarter of their entire body and usually 13″ around. Most of the human brain is already developed before birth… but one big difference is that the skull’s sutures are not closed and cartilage features like noses and ears are just growing in and still quite small- the skull can deform quite a bit to pass through and the smaller features help.
The size of a baby’s head is *quite* close to the sizer of a toddler’s.
On top of this nitpicking, my second point remains: plenty of people out there have tiny girlfriends.
Never heard of a ‘size queen’ have you?
the problem is, it takes a **lot** of time to get to that stretch… nine months and a lot of pregnancy hormones help!!!! :)
would you be ok to wait a long time to get ‘Tab a’ into ‘slot b’ ??? :P
Even ‘sex stars’ cannot do their tricks without lengthy manipulation… :E
Astroglide is good and jokingly referred to as lubricant so you can “get a Cadillac in a dog house”, but there’s certain things you just don’t want to use it on
just realised.
you could make a How does sydney look with a glamour necklace. and then put the various peoples textures/skins/effects/arms on her model.

Even with my glasses on, I can’t decipher the text in that “Too large” post. So I clicked on the “direct link.”
First it asked me if I was 18 or older. I clicked “Yes, I am 18 or older.” Then it did it again. So did I. Then, in another part of my browser, it said something like “This requires VLC plugin. Install? Y/N” I clicked “Y”.
Ten minutes later, I’m still waiting for something to happen.
11 foot 8.
I am familiar with that site.
It is not 11 foot 8 plus 8, and they still have the same problem.
*it is NOW 11 foot 8 plus 8.
Dang it, can you switch the comments to using disqus or something?
That or similar has been suggested in the past, but I think the verdict was that it would [i] involve a lot of complex re-coding and [ii] lose all existing comments (unless commenters themselves went to the effort of re-posting them). Plus which, Disqus doesn’t work on all systems, whereas this one seems fairly agnostic.
I did not notice that before… BUT 38.1CM?! holly phallus, that big.
in hindsight, if I checked the answers to my last comment, I would probably have learned that already… years before.
