The Perfect Dress - Chapter 2

Halrion

Thank you! Good question. I tend to leave the ladies' size a little ambiguous, so that people can form their own images to some extent. Amelia, in my head, is somewhere between Angelica's before and after pictures, though overall she's leaner and longer-limbed than Angelica, making the chubbiness of her belly look more obvious. (And where Angelica's middle is bulging after a day of eating and drinking in her "after" pic, Amelia's protrudes permanently.) Amelia also has more length in her hips and bum, and much slimmer calves; hers is the figure of a swimmer gone to seed, whereas Angelica has the legs and bum of a runner who turned to squat-obsessed powerlifter who lingers too long in her bulking phases. Emily is perhaps closest in size and shape to Holly in the "Holly Bears a Berry" pic, though Emily's slightly shorter and thicker-limbed than Hols, and has a chunkier neck and slightly bigger boobs. I hope that helps a little! I do have some half-finished renders of them, which I'll endeavour to get done soon!

This is excellent! Well done! I'm trying to picture the characters in my mind and I'm a little confused on their general size at this point. I'd like to picture them at the size you are imagining them. Do you have anything that would help with that? Are Amelia and Emily comparable in size to any of your other characters? Especially the ones we have pictures of?

Thank! I liked that line in particular. Looking forward to writing the Dubai stuff!

Great work - love the opener! Can just picture that scene unfolding and ‘Calling... nob head’ is an awesome line. Lots of delicious potential in Dubai too.

Halrion

Thank you! Really glad you enjoyed it. I'm quite taken with her myself.

Thank you! And thanks for the educational feedback. I'll probably squirm around the issue by making him Italian rather than Sicilian. :)

This is a wonderful new episode and these new characters are so unlikeable that I already like them! It was worth waiting months for that. Well, thanks to you I learned a new word: gunt. Is it an "upgraded FUPA"? And I learned "gock", too. Not that I needed it anyway. As an Italian, I have to say that "Domingo" (Sunday in Spanish) is not a typical sicilian surname. Even Giovanni's expletive "bella" is somewhat inaccurate. A true (if stereotypical) sicilian would say "bedda matri" (which is slang for "bella madre" or "beautiful mother"), refering to Mary, mother of Jesus (Southern Italians tend to be really strong in their catholic faith). The story is very well written but you might want to correct these little bits, as I know that you are often so thorough in your research. That said, I cannot wait to see Angelica in action!

Good question. Charlotte has been married 20 years but is not 40 yet. She must be either 38 or 39. Amelia has just gone to the college, so she is 19. The question is, how can Oliver be 23? Halrion, did I get it all wrong?

Really fun chapter, Halrion. What a sexy strumpet Amelia is.

Amazing! Whats the relative age of each character?
