  1. I finished the story by imagining Ai and Bala as PS1-era 2d sprites sitting in a dark void. Added to the mystique! There's so much to unpack in Academy II, and I'm not gonna lie, it's a headier ending than I expected from the Academy series. I really loved the ever-broadening scope and worldbuilding (very Xenogears) as a story that began in the back of a dark van expanded, more and more, until it encompassed all of reality. The anthology-style format built a wonderful world while keeping it grounded in its characters. Using Academy II to blow up the world, bringing in other authors, is an incredible experiment in continuing the themes and structure of the rest of the story. I really do adore this series, it's so incredibly well-written. Thanks so much Mia and the other authors!!!!!
  2. Over the years I've kept revisiting this simple little story. It gives me so many warm fuzzies. Angela clearly recognizes Brittany has reached the end of her maturity, and gives her gentle little nudges along the way to get her there. I'd love to see it continued but also think it's just a delightful little standalone vignette. Awesome work!
  3. Just caught up on everything... holy hell. 🤯 This is a wild way to play out the final chapter of this story. Lynchian, Charlie Kaufman-ian, an increasingly dissociative maze as Ai tumbles through the cosmos like a bug, until she hits the windshield of self-awareness. Multiverse narratives rarely embrace the notion that, in an infinite multiverse, fiction itself must be included. Infinity encompasses anything conceivable and inconceivable: if we can imagine it, a universe exists somewhere. Looping in and homaging other ABDL niche universes (Diaper Dimension, Keeperverse) is a really effective way of showcasing this. And inviting other authors into your story is a great way of showcasing the recursive nature of narrative. Time and again, Ai and Bala chase each other, effectively trapping the other in hell. But we see different variations, different themes, which blend together and help feed into the overall tapestry of the characters. Ai was created by Mia Moore, but she's also now covered in other authors' fingerprints too. I think that's a beautiful manifestation of the way humans tell stories together, passed along through time. What an ambitious piece of literature. Amazing work Mia and all the other authors involved.
  4. For some reason, I thought Academy M was the final chapter, so I really wasn't expecting such a wild cliffhanger!!! 🥺 I'm hyper-fixated on the series' timeline. I really need to rejoin your Patreon/Discord to see if anyone has put it together properly yet. I'm not surprised Ayoka is the Star. I finished rereading Academy A right before the final chapter of Academy M. The foreshadowing is pretty explicit: the debut of Justice (who is hunting the Star), the smash cut to the Calm after Aya's victory, even the star-shaped stickers she's been collecting. Like Pers, I think Maria is a Candy, but more because of metatextual hints. I'd been reading the Academy titles as corresponding to developmental stages: Academy I(nfant), Academy B(aby), T(oddler), K(id), A(dolescent), M(ature). But I just now realized they also correspond to the protagonists' names: I(Ai), B(ala), T(alia), K(ione), A(yoka), M(aria). If Maria is a Candy, I don't think we can take anything Justice told her to be true, including the Eden timeline. This chapter makes it seem like we're barrelling toward a finale. But there remain so many outstanding mysteries: What's the deal with Justice? - My crackpot theory: Justice is Maria. We've only seen Justice have in-person convos with Maria. Even Justice's debut in Academy A could have been her driving Maria's body. They're like Superman/Clark Kent: you never see them together in the same place. Who are Jamie, Felicia, and Erik? - I can't remember if these characters were ever mentioned before Academy M. But Academy M hints pretty strongly at an upcoming narrative for these characters. Maybe Academy J, for Junior/Jamie? Where are Talita and Tomas? - The siblings from Academy T, I think Talita is the only protagonist who hasn't appeared in a second story. Unless it's a Wendy/Ai situation, where they showed up elsewhere under different names. What role will Angela play? - For those who don't remember, that's her whole deal: she can't be remembered. She was originally Tomas' Mommy, got stuck with a pen, and now she's a ghost baby in Academy K who can't be remembered by anyone else. She's referenced in this story, and is probably the character I find most intriguing. The other staff - I think the big ones are Eli, Penny, and Kenzō. I'm not sure they need full chapters/backstories or anything like that: their motives are pretty clearly defined at this point. But I still find them intriguing characters, especially Penny: she's arguably the only actual little in this story. This story is like Lost, but with diapers. I love the sprawling mystery box we're trapped within. Amazing, amazing story Mia!!!
  5. Holy heck this chapter was so gratifying. Two years of answers, spilling out all at once. I'm rereading the series right now. Until Academy M, I hadn't considered that any of the caretakers were recurring. But Maria's been in at least half the stories. I love the intricate groundwork you've been laying. I just got to this part in Academy T: Sure seems like she was talking about The Big Reset! Also... I feel like Maria's undoing will be writing those letters to Judith. It's so easy to see a scenario where Judith realizes the "nonsense letters" she wrote at the beginning of her stay too closely match Maria's. If Penny is right, Judith probably is not the Star. Even still, she's a Candie. How badly will Maria's mistakes break reality?
  6. I am furious and deeply frustrated, in no small part because every story I followed had reached a really juicy point. Fuck Patreon and their clunky 2007 interface. I truly hate that website. Solidarity to the affected writers/artists. I hope every one lands somewhere safe soon (I know Personalias is setting up a SubscribeStar). I want to keep paying you for your work!
  7. This whole time I’d been assuming the Academy was a band of rich weirdos luring people into diapers, Most Dangerous Game style. But it looks like there really is some kind of metaphysical nature to the group, and it’s not all elaborate gaslighting… Or why not both? Is Maria merely working in Academy M, or is she also the subject? It’ll be curious to see the curtain pulled back. I love this series so much, might be time for another reread. Thanks Mia!!
  8. The worldbuilding in this series is absolutely riveting. I was so excited to realize the ghost was Kione, I didn't see that coming at all. I need to go back and read the older stories now. Thanks for sharing your work!
  9. Aww this poor egg is about to get scrambled. ? I really like the beginning of this story! It's charming and straightforward and character focused as with your other work. I'm especially curious about the academic life: outside Oliver and Naomi and the odd story here and there, I don't think there's been a lot of emphasis on art and culture in DD stories. Excited to see how things play out!
  10. This is not the typical story I'm into, but holy goodness that last chapter was incredible. The whole story is good throughout, but the buildup to the payoff is exquisite. Super love this paragraph, because it's not just a physical release, but the small details of all sensory inputs firing at once, intermingled with mounting arousal and emotional boilover... whew ? If we are so lucky, I can't wait to read more about Nickie and Flopsy's new adventures. But otherwise, thanks for sharing. ?
  11. I want to leave more thoughts, and wish I'd been commenting throughout, but this really is a delightful story, my favorite in awhile. Thanks so much for sharing it with us!
  12. I read this on the Patreon and this Iris story is incredible. As good, if not better, than anything in the main story.
  13. Funny you say that, I got super into DD stories literally because of the pandemic, it was my escapist way of coping with this madness. ?
  14. This passage warms my heart more than anything else in the story. Since I'm on the Patreon I've been thinking about it for weeks. Ava is not a little or into age play or naturally inclined to this lifestyle... But maybe she is. Ava fixated so long on what she'd lost, but now she's learning what she gained: a chance to indulge parts of herself she wasn't allowed to in her old home. Anyway I've said everything I can about this story, but I just love it. Well done. (But I still think Ava and Tiffany could find a better Big than Hector. ?)
  15. Charlie hedging her bets, and Livvy moonwalking right into her trap. ? Charlie's trustworthy, she's had ample opportunity to adopt Liv, but I like how the rhetoric has changed from "never" to "never, unless..." They both want to be girlfriends, but they also both definitely wanna be Mummy and Daughter. ?‍❤️‍? Also, there's no way that sleepover is benign and innocent as Charlie says: she'll eat that poor Little alive! ?
  16. Charlie's definitely a keeper, this is so cute. ? I love the way she keeps just eeeeeeever so slightly cutting down Liv, while never fully infantilising her. She has a really distinct, consistent voice, I love her so much. These two lovebirds just need to hurry up and move in together, plenty of couples make a MDLG dynamic work in the bedroom. ?
  17. Sarah is my favorite character in the story and I'm so glad she was able to claw her way into a bit more dignity. (I'm also glad she gets the first big breastfeeding scene in the book, hopefully Ava gets her turn on the other end of a boob soon. ?)
  18. Good for Charlie, you should never let a crisis go to waste. ? This story has such a fun dynamic, because Charlie clearly wants to baby Liv, and Liv *also* wants Charlie to baby her, but neither can admit it! Liv is definitely flying too close to the sun these days, she's had two (three, really) attacks directly related to her job, not to mention the mall incidents. She's attracting too much attention and living on borrowed time. She needs protection... And what better protection than a tall Mommy ready to throw down with other Bigs to keep her safe? ?
  19. Nah I'm not playing that game. It's like arguing Hobbits get STDs, and that Bilbo kept the ring because he had syphilitic dementia. It says more about you than the author you're trying to critique. This is a story set in a fantasy universe with vastly different health outcomes than we experience here. The author has given you everything you need to analyze and critique the characters without having to concoct elaborate scenarios.
  20. None of this is true. Cam's motivations for the entire second half of the book come from what happened to Emily. She vanished for a significant length of time (like 2-4 years IIRC) before he learned what happened to her. He didn't date anyone else in the meantime, fixated on the few tokens of her he had left, and still wound up visiting her when he learned of her regression. Emily's regression is literally the most important event of his life. I'm sorry the story took a turn you didn't like but it just feels like you're grinding an ax. It's a story posted on an ABDL message board, set in something called the Diaper Dimension. You have to understand the genre for what it is. If you're not familiar with or don't enjoy the genre, that's not the author's fault.
  21. Coming out hard in favor of Beth's ending. Granted, I've liked unbirth stories off and on, so they don't squick me out. But even still, I thought it was a fitting ending for Beth's story, for a couple of reasons: 1. There's enough mystery about the human brain that we don't know what will survive after the procedure. It's possible growing and repairing those synapses will give her back more of her memory and personality than expected. Even if it's not 100%, it's better than death. 2. If I read this right, Beth will be reborn as a Big infant. The story kept coming back to her poem, because those two inches destroyed her life. She never got the happy baby ending in most of these stories: she was just destroyed instead. I feel like the epilogue will be a newly regrown Beth revisiting that poem, and coming to understand how much her parents (old and new) gave up to give her a better life. If I have one criticism, it's that it was so rushed, introducing a pretty major new concept and then jumping years (decades?) in the span of a few paragraphs. Maybe the rejuvenation concept was introduced earlier and I just forgot. Anyway wonderful finale BabySofia, good ending for Beth, bad ending for Lexie because she wanted like ten scenes of Addy babying her (willing) Camille. The few scenes we got were so good! ?
  22. Ha, it probably says something about me that I'm not worried Liv will be turned into a baby slave, but I *am* worried she'll get her heart broken! ? I still think Stephen's punishment was pretty extreme, but that's how it goes in this dimension. The shorter you are, the more careful you have to be, and that boy was reckless as hell. ??‍♀️ I hope Liv keeps her wits about her!
  23. This is such a tense chapter! I love that they went through all that effort, and it wasn't even there.
  24. There's no solidarity like class solidarity! ? The rich can't all be Addisons (who, admittedly, I was wrong about!). God, Cam has enough nanites in his body to turn into the Hulk now. If Stacy's drops of nanomachines in the water supply has consequences like this, I can only imagine the long-term effects of Cam's injections. When this is over, he'd basically be a walking bio bomb. ?
