Building off of this Mountain hc of mine, Mountain actually becoming smaller… sort of.
Aether’s just flicking through the library one day, studying his own Quintessence bc it’s a big world and even he has a lot to learn about it.
That’s when he comes across thought manipulation.
He immediately knows what he could use it for, and that’s only solidified when he sees Mountain curled up in the tiny nest he built for himself in the bottom of his closet and softly crying to himself.
(Yappings below the cut)
So Aether sits Mountain down and tells him about what he’s found.
As much as Mountain adores when the pack treat him like he’s the smallest Ghoul going, he always knows he actually isn’t, and that voice is constantly ruining everything and gnawing away at his mind.
So when Aether says he may know a way for that voice to be silenced for brief periods of time, Mountain agrees immediately.
The first time they try it, Aether doesn’t take a lot off of what Mountain usually glamours off his height (the maximum of 1ft from his 7’8” frame), just to test the waters of his own powers.
But even with the couple inches of difference, Mountain hears that voice get slightly muffled.
When Aether tries it next, he makes Mountain believe he’s Swiss’ height.
Slowly they work down the pack until one day, Mountain believes he’s Dew’s height.
He cried in sheer relief that day because that horrid voice was completely silent.
He went to kiss Dew, and Dew simply leaned forward.
In reality, Mountain’s body hadn’t changed at all except for the fact the stress had left him, he looked about a decade younger and more relaxed than ever.
Dew was actually on his tiptoes and Mountain was crouched down, as usual, but his mind was clouded by the Quintessence that told him he was the exact same height as Dew.
When the pack coo at him for how small he is, he believes it.
When he needs to get something high up, his mind can’t fathom actually reaching for it and needs another Ghoul to help.
He actually gets to feel like he’s looking up at his mates and doesn’t feel the strain on his neck as he looks down to them.
Mountain knows he can’t live in this world, and he does agree to seek professional help for his often debilitating insecurity, but when it gets really bad, Aether always knows how to help him.
Mountain just wants to be little sometimes. And sometimes, he gets his wish.

KEYS TO UNDERSTANDING:
MIND CONTROL and THOUGHT MANIPULATION is the fruit of BRAINWASHING. Brainwashing sets the stage for mind control and thought manipulation to come into play by means of influence, misinterpretation or exploitation. To manipulate means to influence or manage shrewdly or deviously through deceptions, false hope and even false happiness.
It is to misconstrue or misinterpret to bring misunderstanding about the true identity of who we are as God's creation (how) by implementing lies that cause us to question our identity as: humans; as a man or as a woman; as individuals; and most importantly, questioning who we are in Christ and who He is in us.
