colin bridgerton: penelope featherington? are you mad? i would never dream of courting penelope featherington, not in your wildest fantasies, fife
colin bridgerton: what if i did have feelings for you? i have spent so long trying to feel less, trying to be the kind of man society expects me to be and for a moment i thought i had succeeded but these last past weeks have been full of confounding feelings, feelings like a complete inability to stop thinking about you...about that kiss...feelings like dreaming of you when i'm asleep and preferring sleep because that's where i might find you, a feeling that is like torture, but one which i cannot, will not, do not want to give up

Attention the Court VI
Ryan wakes up to the sound of the door bell ringing. He rolls to get up but is stopped by his baby bump. It looks overdue. He peels off his fishnet shirt as he sits up. He looks around to see his any of his two gentlemen guests are still around, but it seems that the two of them left during the night. He shrugs it off. The encounters were casual and all parties knew that going in. He gets up. It's getting harder and harder to move the baby bump. It's growing so quickly and the rest of his body hasn't kept up. He puts on a tight blue shirt and red basketball shorts that should be loose but hugs his flesh. He waddles to the door of his condominium. He opens up the door to find a massive red basket overflowing with a odd variety of fruits and a small blue envelope.
He drags the two inside and pops open the envelope. It's a statement saying that $168,750 has been added to his account. He smiles at the number as he rubs his belly. He's going to need it to provide for all his kids. He turns to the fruit basket. The bounty contains an eclectic collect of fruits; avocados and coconuts usually require more preparation to be included in a typical fruit basket. He has to eat it, and the elephant is eaten one bite at a time. He rips into the red plastic and pulls out a peach. He bites into and is hit with how sweet and sweet it is. Juice pours down his chin as he gobbles the flesh around the pit. He puts the pit down, unaware of the fact of his ass swelling larger, jutting further from his form by an inch. His shorts grow to accommodate his larger form, staying as tight as always. He rips into a cloth bag full of berries. A strange menagerie of berries lie within it. He pops them all inside his mouth; each of them sweet and tart. Each of them causes a small surge in his body. Feature harden and sharpen as muscles grow and bulge within his body. By the time he's through the one bag, he's five pounds heavier with muscle. He takes out one of the bananas and peels it. He pops it in his mouth in one bite. It's the best banana he's ever eaten, though it was oddly a bit unrip. He crotch swells forwards as his dick grows and lengthens. It's circumference and length have both grown by half an inch. He looks at the olives packed in a tiny jar, and he licks his lips. Maybe they might help flush out the sweetness in his mouth, to make the other fruits sweet again. He pops open one of the jars and plucks out a fruit from the brine. It's bitter and salty. As he masticates, his mouth floods with saliva. Without thinking, he grabs two more, then three more. every bite he takes, he grows heavier. As the berries hardened features, the olives soften them, but both add weight. His fat seems to collect at the bottom bottom of his belly, his thighs, the sides of his torso the most. When the olives are all gone, he still craves that savory taste, he picks up the jar and chugs down the brine. When he's done with the jar, he's find pounds fatter than when he started. He looks at the avocados. Packages of crackers lay beside them. He walks into the kitchen, his footsteps falling just a little bit harder than they used to. He grabs a sharp knife, a spoon, and butterknife. Split it open by cutting around the pit, scoop out the flesh from the skin, and spread it over the crackers. The result is easy to nosh on, and quickly the crackers are gone. Just as quickly, the bulge of his red shorts fills out as his balls plump up, becoming 25% percent larger than they were. Kyle still doesn't realize the changes to his body, his mind all making it all normal and fine. He picks up one of the coconuts, while trying to remember how to open them up from that one time his friend showed him in college. Underneath the collection of coconuts is a skewer, a mallet, and a sharp spoon. Now he remembers. He pokes opens up one of the soft spot that lay at the "eyes." He lifts up the coconut and gulps down the milk that pours out. It's oddly a lot of water for a ripe one. His arms automatically adjust as his pecs swell a little bit. He cracks open the rest with a mallet, and scoops out the flesh from the two halves, eating the meat as he scoops it out like he's eating out of carton of ice cream. When there's only the shell left, his pecs jut out an inch more, and his nipples larger and longer. He's still hungry, and there's so much fruit just for him.
Kyle finishes off a peach, by sucking off every bit of flesh from its pit. He looks around for something else, but all he finds is empty red packaging. Then he hears the doorbell ring. He waddles over to the door. The floor boards of his new condominium creek and groan under his weight. His belly, filled with 128 kids, already looks overdue despite being five weeks along. His his body is now a whole lot more stout. He's 175 pounds stronger and 165 pounds fatter. His thighs rub together. His back is wider, his lats widen the top and love handles at the bottom. His arms are bigger than a lot people's heads. His ass sways as he waddles, each cheek the size of a yoga ball, and they match his chest, though the latter are bigger. Golf balls sized nipples sit on large areolae are painfully obvious behind the blue fabric that contain them. Swinging beneath his belly is a 19 inch monster supplied by two productive melon sized balls. He opens up his door and leans forwards a bit, his chest making it hard for him to see things bellow his eye level. It's one of his gentleman quests from last night. The man blushes at Kyle's new form, though neither can mentally process the change as abnormal. "I think I left my charger here. Mind if I grab it?" Kyle rubs his baby bump. "Sure, though if you aren't busy right now. I wouldn't mind if you gave me a proper goodbye before leaving again or continuing our fun last night." The man turns redder. His pants tent up. "I would love that." Good peers. I have noticed something. Kyle is spending all this time with these gentle men, but beyond their exciting time together, they part so easily. I think there should be an effect on each other, gifts in my normal fashion of course. The court shall pick two option this time, the two leaders prevailing as the gifts and maybe even combining. Now let's the options. Virile Father: why should Kyle be the only one so blessed, his lovers shall be growing children of his own. Virile Suitors: his lovers shall be now give our dear Kyle more children. Generous Giver: Kyle shall make his companions larger. Greedy Grower: his companions shall make our client grow. Waste Not: every lustful encounter shall make every 128 kid grow. Patron Patriarch: fortune shall find his paramours. Patronized Patriarch: Every paramour shall make Kyle wealthier. Binding Bed: All that Kyle shall bed shall be bound by strange magics to his fate. All of the Above! Nothing
(Sorry for the delay. Life got complicated and I didn't have the time or when I did not the energy for the next part.)

“your gut instinct is not a liar, those initial feelings exist for a reason, sit on them if you need to, process whether your feelings are valid or just projections, but never dismiss your intuition when the signs are staring you in the face and your nervous system is agreeing.”

Just a quick not friendly reminder: someone who has apologized for past mistakes, made amends for past actions, and clearly no longer holds past beliefs, is a far better person than one who digs up old dirt and uses a person's past that no longer exists against them.

25 Laws of power for women
Conceal your goals especially the ones that are appealing. Losing weight, reinventing yourself, marrying wealthy. Instead talk about your altruistic goals - to help children, invest in education, this will chase insecure people with vile intentions.
Do not give anyone your source of power: Was is a book that changed your life? a mentor? a movie? Never give up your secret to success. If forced to do say allude to God, the universe, the a random phenomenon
Use the patriarchy to your favor; we live in a world that is, only associate with men who have power, use that power for good.
Never appear too perfect but be selectively vulnerable when needed. Only share something that you will be comfortable saying. You might say “I forget my keys all the time,” “I don’t know how to perfectly park a car “. But never disclose something you are not comfortable with just because you are afraid of being perfect.
Maintain distance in relationships. Friends are the best and you need them. But if you feel that they are becoming too dependent, see them at your own will. But also the reverse could be the case. Your friend may keep a distance, and that is the way of life. You have got to move on from it.
Develop your own style that makes you unique, beautiful, and elegant. Avoid trying to fit in the crowd of people who claim to care less about their style yet have too many opinions about other women’s style
Avoid male friends at all cost, you will have male colleagues, male bosses, male acquaintances, business partners. Keep it that way. You do not want a Truman Capote divulging your secrets to the world. Do not keep a man who does not fit your standard.
You do not have to win at every game. Pick and choose what is best for you and leave room for others. And step down if you have attained that level of success, do not let the society do it for you.
Trust people but remember that we are all humans. So trust with discretion!
Confuse people with kindness; people are not always comfortable with beautiful and intelligent women. That power is too intimidating so confuse them by being genuinely generous, curious, kind, and passionate.
Keep your strong opinions to yourself.. if you support a movement, a way of life, do so silently.
We all have dirty laundry, wash them privately, don’t expose yourself. Remain silent when people try to attack you or shame you. Whatever is not confirmed is not true. You are the only one who knows all the truth about you.
Don’t attract pity or praise: People who pity you do not help you, in fact they might think that you are weak and could mock you at their annual gossipping meeting. And if you are doing things for the sake of praise you are wasting your time.
Choose yourself all the time; never put any one’s feelings above yours.
Trust your own intuition if you feel someone is being malicious towards you, giving you back handed compliments then you should let them go
Never speak bad of another woman. Do not lazy around gossipping. Keep your hands clean and your conscience clear.
Avoid women with low self esteem they will bring you down. For some reason they do not like seeing other women who are doing better than them
Be careful who you seek validation from. Not everyone needs to be pleased. If they are in no way capable of contributing to your life in the ways you prefer, then don’t ask them for their opinions or please them.
Do not compete with other women, if you do you are only putting them on a pedestal. You are making the the standard by which you measure your progress. If you do compete, begin digging your grave.
Do not give unsolicited advice, do not share the inner workings of your mind, If your mouth is very charitable you better start journaling.
Be well-rounded and interesting. It attracts people. It also keeps you busy because you are continually improving and learning. An idle mind is an easily subdued one.
Avoid women who want to live vicariously through you; they want to know who you know, shop where you shop, befriend who you befriend, wear what you wear.
Pay attention to the source of your discomfort; get rid of them. You tell them your dreams and they remind you of all your hindrances. They ask why are you dressed so fancy as though fancy isn’t subjective. They undermine you interests and goals. They will also be quick to bring you down because they are afraid of your potential.
Do not fear power or please power. When we see powerful people we try to hard to befriend them, to be close to them but you need to be comfortable without them. Don’t push yourself in the name of friendship, do not try too hard to be in their inner circle. Your independence of mind is the most important. Instead become a powerful woman, aloof to the presence of power but aware of its importance. Be an ingenious and intelligent and use your creativity to uplift yourself. When you do so it will be hard to ignore you. Even the powerful will become an ally.
Enjoy moments of solitude. Use that time to develop yourself, improve your body, learn new skills, create with your mind, read widely, become more elegant, then launch yourself.
Remember the most powerful women are the most intelligent. Inspired by Robert Greene's 48 Laws of Power. Use at your discretion.

This a a reminder to not fall victim to the sunk-cost fallacy. Just because you invested time and energy into something, does not mean you should indefinitely waste more time and energy on it, if you decide it’s not what you want anymore. This goes for anything, from books, to relationships, to jobs, to hobbies, etc.
If it’s not serving you anymore, move on.
