(Commission for @alt-hammer of a fantasy AU where Jade, a talented alchemist, has greated a boob expansion potion and refines it, gradually getting more enormously buxom as she and Dave get closer together.
This is set in, broadly, the same continuity as the godess terezi commission; some liberties were taken so, where there are differences, assume them to take place in their own micro continuities.)
----------
The town was an old one, near a vast forest that lay in the shadow of a temple consecrated to one of the old gods: the teal dragon goddess of mentality, rumored by some to be incarnate in the modern age. The era of magic and gods, though, was long behind them, and simply reverse engineering even a tiny shred of its power was a game-changer, especially for such a minor town.
Jade Harley, alchemist and adventurer, thought she had just about worked it out.
Okay, she thought, peering at a list of ingredients. Body expansion and modification. It used to be so much more common, in the old days. Did I figure it out?
I think I did.
She poured over the ingredient list, checking things off, and she was so busy in her work that she heard the bell over the door go ‘ding’.
“Yo-hoy, Jade?” Came the voice of Dave Strider, her best friend, with big quotation marks around the ‘friend’ bit. She smiled and stood up. Jade was a tall woman… a very tall woman, even bigger than some trolls, which was unusual for a human. She had a curvy frame, packed with power, and lately she had been thinking: not curvy enough.
And then, she’d heard stories about the old days. Ancients who had transformed their bodies in impossible ways, with nothing but their knowledge of magic. And she’d thought; if they did it, why not me?
Dave was waiting there. He was not a particularly tall man, or broad; he had the sort of wiry, vaguely feminine look that was quite popular these days, and paired well against Jade’s more voluptuous frame. She just looked big, especially next to him. Nevertheless, when he stood up, it was with a real sense of genuine strength and power that belied his seemingly frail look.
“You sure you wanna do this whole… thing?”
Jade indicated her chest. It was pretty ample, and again, especially for a human. But Jade had thought about records from the old days, that described people changing themselves to be… bigger. More buxom. And she had thought; if they’d done it, why not her? What was the missing keys to that kind of power?
Besides thousands of years of magical knowledge and infrastructure, she admitted. But they’d been learning, and she thought she might have rediscovered the key.
Jade wanted bigger boobs. She wanted really big boobs. It was a pretty silly thing to want, she would be the first to admit, but when she thought of herself, of the shape that Jade Harley ought to have, it was with boobs so big that they’d have to reshape the doorways when she left the house; pathway-clearing plows of a bustline, big and bouncy boobs so massive you could sit on them.
Or even bigger than that!
The default assumption that most men would have, in helping such a task, would be ‘yes please!’. Dave was surprisingly ambivalent; she had no doubt he’d be pleased by the results, but the actual experimenting was going to be an issue.
He worried a lot. About her in particular.
“I'm sure!” Jade put her hands on her hips. “I just… oh, I’ve been spending years on this, and I’m so close! I can practically taste it!”
“Right, right, cool. Passion project, I get that.” Dave patted her on the shoulder, the gesture completely reflective. He probably didn’t realize how intimate it felt.
Probably? Jade pondered that, for a while.
“Well, I got a map.” Dave laid it on a table; now they were free to plan, since no one came in after these hours. On the map was a chart of the most magically potent parts of the forest outside the town, where the most magically powerful ingredients… and monsters… were likely to be found. “I think these are the places we should start looking.”
“Right!”
For hours, they planned it out. The kinds of things they would need to hunt up, of course. The gear they would need to harvest things effectively, and explore the forest.
And the monsters they were likely to face, the mindless beasts generated by raw magical energies and attacking anything they perceived as intruders. Dave faltered a bit at the thought; not in fear, but he was looking at Jade as if thinking too hard about her getting struck by some beast’s claws.
He swallowed. “You sure you wanna do this? For… to get bigger boobs?”
Jade grinned. When you put it like that, the whole thing sounded silly, and she really didn’t mind that at all.
“Absolutely!” She insisted.
------
After that, Dave came in regularly, when he could.
At least once a week, in his official capacity as a courier. As much as possible when he was off work, or just playing schemes to pretend to be doing things on the clock, goofing off at her work place and racking up paid hours when deliveries slowed instead of doing paperwork. She was pretty sure that he definitely was not allowed to do that; his boss, Mister Slick, was a stickler for the letter of the rules for everyone if not himself, and he in turn answered to the chief courier, the Mendicant.
Jade had to consider that. She didn’t know the chief courier personally, but everyone knew of her; she was married to the mayor, who was something of a gremlin with a chip on his shoulder but a pretty relaxed attitude. The chief courier was a lot more strict, and probably wouldn’t approve of Dave doing that, so of course Jade kept the whole thing secret.
Dave had been scouting out the places they were going to hunt down; slaying a few monsters, scrounging up what he could for Jade to examine. It all worked out for her; monster flesh and bone, fungi and moss and roots all growing in places absolutely drenched in magic… it served her purposes perfectly.
She made her potions; not testing them on herself yet, though Jade tended towards the belief that a TRUE alchemist used themselves as a test subject before anyone else, but that was for a product proven to have the effect she wanted. Until then, she’d taken to quietly giving the uncertain batches to the cattle that grazed just outside her home, pouring it into their food when no one was looking. The cows, she was pleased to see, wound up moving unsteadily with obscenely massive udders so stuffed that they were propped up by them, and the consistency in it satisfied her.
Putting in magically charged milk, she determined, seemed to help. She imagined herself with such massive, swinging breasts and trilled with delight.
And they would need to go to magical places to find ingredients to make into potions; plants, fungi and the parts of monsters, all rich with magical energies. Alchemy was, as she explained it to Dave, the art of melting down magically potent substances and infusing them with arcane ‘aspects’ to effectively make liquid, drinkable spells. The trick was finding things powerful enough to infuse the solution, and for that…
Well, to the old forest, they’d both go.
-------
The days came and went. Experiments went by. Batches, failed and otherwise, were tested; the cows grew bigger and bigger, so much so that Zahhak dairy farming family found something of a glut of their product, and Jade jotted down their boasting or complaints under a list of things to bear in mind for the future batches.
Dave came and went. When he could reasonably swing it, playing off his ingredient hunts for Jade as part of his job; she paid him, at least, which generally satisfied Mister Slick, according to Dave. Jade did see the chief courier, glistening in the sun like a polished ivory statue, studying her shop as if looking for signs of slacking off, and she quietly told Dave the next time she saw him (complete with him bringing several baskets of mushrooms, roots and the occasional monster part) that they would have to probably save this for his free time.
So, in the end, they went together.
Deeper into the forest, where anyone had ever gone. Under the shadow of the ancient temple of the dragon goddess, where its primordial magic seeped into the trees, turning them and the crawling moss into living, teal crystals…
And where the monsters dwelled.
-------
And one day, they came back from there. Both of them bloodied, battered; panting with exhaustion and still trembling; with terror, at least for Jade, tinged with exhilaration. “That was amazing!” Jade said as they stumbled into her shop, her chest heaving and her travel robes hanging over her front like a mobile tent.
Dave put his sword down and flopped down onto a cot Jade kept around, in case he wanted to take a nap whenever he dropped by. “I warned ya, Jade. I warned you about the imps.”
Jade sat down on a chair, and it creaked under her considerable weight. She was simply too thick for most furniture; the legs were bending ominously, as she rocked back giggling to herself in a mix of post-adventure shock and genuine excitement. “The way they came out of nowhere! And the way you just cut them! Swoosh! Slash! That was so cool!”
“Am a little bit concerned with how easy you’re dealing with this.” Dave sat up. “You blasting them was pretty cool…”
Jade turned around. There was a lot of bouncing, possibly on purpose, and green spirals of magical energy swished around her. She’d cast so much magical energy that it was leaking out of, rising out with relatively small gestures, and it make her tingle all over; crackling like her blood was lightning and a sun beating in her chest-
She grabbed Dave and spun him right around, off his seat, and he squealed as she pulled him close to her in a tight not-quite-hug. She was too caught up in the exhilaration to realize it. “Let’s do that again!”
“Ye?” Dave said, lying on the floor now, red-faced and apparently losing the will to move on his own.
Jade was too full of vigor and excitement to stop now. She took one of the bundles of ingredients, plants and fungi and the harvested monster parts they’d been able to secure, and took them up to her work station.
Dave had time to recover, sitting up and recentering himself and not thinking constantly about the feeling of Jade’s body against his own (at least that’s what he would insist, later) as Jade took the things the ingredients they had found and prepared them for distilling. She chopped with knives, she crushed with a motorized pestle, and repeated this until she had a number of small chunks and fine dust. She placed that into a large flask she placed under a burner, but the flames she produced from it were a bright green.
It didn’t burn the chopped and crushed plants, meat and mushrooms. Instead it softened them, until they started dripping through a grate at the bottom of the flash. That became a fluid, propelled onwards through a series of tubes. There, other solutions and mystical fluids were dribbled into it; things to add in mystical formulas and spell-aspects, amplifying other aspects of the potion… negating the flavors and aspects of the substances they originally had been, purifying it into something completely divorced from its origins.
It eventually flowed, much thicker now, into a beaker. Jade poured a hint of something that looked a lot like milk, her magic flowing into it, supercharging it. A bit of milk to give it the right aspect for what she wanted. And a little bit of amplification, mixing with the raw power of the other ingredients...
And under the heat of the magical flame, which burned away solid matter and left behind only magical essence made fluid, Jade waited for it to finish.
She grew quiet, and intense. Dave, recovered by now, had long since learned to pick up on her moods and he knew she was getting very excited.
“I thought you didn’t use spells,” Dave said, to break the silence. “What was with all that… fwoosh?” He wiggled his hands, in the manner of the green fire he remembered Jade shooting all over the place.
“Fwoosh?” Jade said, absently.
“You were shooting attack spells and stuff.”
“Oh! I mean. I know how to do that kind of magic. Not so much in my job, but I know about the theory of magic in general. I couldn’t do alchemy right if I didn’t.”
“And the fire stuff?”
Jade giggled. “I always did wanna put that into practice!”
“Wait, you mean you’ve never fought until today?”
Jade, a woman who had turned a small part of the forest into a crater and probably infuriated the local spirits, looked bashful. “Did it show?!”
“...No. Not really.”
“Huh. Good to hear!” Jade suddenly shut off the flame, stirring it a few times; despite the constant heat, there was no sign that it was particularly hot. “This batch is done!”
Dave stood up. “You sure? I’d thought there’d be… more sparkles.”
“I might put something like that in a consumer batch; people expect sparkles, you know. But this is the testing phase!” Jade examined the potion, studying it. Her magical senses, and eye for detail, picked out things Dave couldn’t possibly have made out. Apparently satisfied, she put it up to her lips and started to tilt it up.
“Whoa!” Dave staggered forward, his stoic exterior cracking just this bit. “Is that safe?! Shouldn’t you test it on, i dunno, the cows?!” He gestured towards a herd visible right through the window, where the shop brushed up against a pasture (as the Zahhaks, as one of the older families, had the authority to simply build their homes into grassy places for the cattle to feed). A cow looked right through the window, hindquarters lifted right off the ground by an obscenely stuffed udder.
Jade lowered the flask, just for a moment. She briefly gave the cow a solemn look, her eyes wide and impatience seething from her; she looked at the cow with an expression all but screamed, to Dave: I want that.
She made a ‘tsk’ing noise, wiggling a finger scoldingly at Dave. “Oh, I’m sick of letting them have all the good stuff! I want that for me!” She grinned, wildly, and Dave knew that there was nothing he could do, short of slapping it out of her hand, to stop her, and he thought that it would be wrong to do that.
“If you’re sure…” Dave said, clearly dubious.
“I’ve never been MORE sure.”
And Jade tilted the potion up, and drained it in a single, powerful swig.
Dave winced, but didn’t argue.
She smiled, though, as her stomach briefly glowed green, the potion taking effect. “It’s nice that you worry, though.” She patted his hand, still upraised in protest, and impulsively, she kissed it.
His hand felt so warm against her lips; a heat flashed there, against her teeth and tongue, and down her neck. It lingered there in her chest, mixing with the magical energies and transformative vibes now swirling inside her. It felt so fine; a gentle euphoria rose inside her, and she couldn’t help but smile through an intense blush.
Green light swirled around her, and especially over her chest. On her breasts, swirling around them and outlining them, supercharging them with magical energies speaking of more and BIGGER, but brightest of all was her heart.
Dave felt the magic flowing from her, before any changes actually happened, and he took a step back; a little awed at what he felt flowing inside her, and maybe stunned by the kiss.
Later, he contemplated how and why he sensed anything. He wasn’t trained in magic; he knew the martial applications, the tricks to make yourself stronger and faster with the spiritual energy inside a person, or the energy around you, but he didn’t know how to use magic itself. Jade’s work was a mystery to him, and he was quietly impressed with people who did know how to bend magic more directly. The actual mechanics of how it was supposed to work was all a bit beyond him.
Nonetheless he felt it, right then. Right there.
Maybe, he theorized later, he’d learned to sense magical energy somewhere, in all the training to harness it. Flex a muscle hard enough, you learned to get a feel for when it was straining. A similar principle could apply, right?
In any case, he stumbled back, more and more, as Jade started to get bigger.
He was far from the only one to notice it, though; there were many people who’d worked out how to manipulate magic all over the town, or those who benefitted from thep precious and rare remaining bits of lore from older days. And some who were something else altogether.
Even people who didn’t live in town felt Jade growing: the professional spellcasters, the priestly high classes, and the hedge-mages learning it all on their own. Even those completely untutored, but sensitive to magic all the same, felt it. And those who knew their stuff felt it happen in intimate detail, like Miss Roxy Lalonde, probably the best student of magical theory in town, and she perked up at the sudden flare from Jade’s shop.
Karkat Vantas, living outside town in the old and long-abandoned manor, felt something even as he slept. His fiance, Terezi Pyrope, sat up and silently eased him back to sleep as she looked up. Her eyes were blind and felt very old, just like the ancient statues in the very temple Jade had walked in the shadows of. There were murals there… that looked just like Terezi Pyrope; as if those ancient sculptors had modeled them after her.
She tilted her head up, head craning and focusing right at the precise location of Jade.
She grinned. “Interesting~!” She said aloud, already making up her mind to pay Jade a visit as soon as she could.
People, intrigued or afraid or obnoxiously curious, gravitated towards Jade’s shop. The market outside her place broke up, the people in it drifting over to see what was going on. So, quite apart from Dave, Jade had an audience.
And in the shop itself, there was no blast of magic. No eye-searing pyrotechnics, as might be associated with a surge of magic so strong it made the cattle outside bounce and gush away in shock, or made Jade squeal with a mixed noise of joy and shock; she staggered back, as if her limbs suddenly were sapped of their strength, or something new flooding it and pushing out the old energy to make way for something fresh, strong and wild…
She gritted her teeth. They seemed longer, sharper; she took a step forward, and her legs kept shaking. No, wait. IT took a moment for Dave to realize, but they weren’t shaking.
They were getting wider.
Jade’s thighs slowly grew, leg muscles gradually bulking up and expanding outwards, a thick and appealing sheath of fat covering them. Not growing much past the knees, making them look surprisingly small past the thighs.
Her hips swayed and wiggled; first Jade just moved in an unconscious groove, and then it was a pattern of growth, and her hips expanded outwards in a smooth swell. Several inches added themselves on, and then about an extra foot of hip growth, to both sides. Jade stumbled as her thighs grew so big their sides were mashing together, and then made an embarrassed noise as her butt suddenly surged out, so bubbly and round that it was making the hem of her skirts rise up!
Her chest was still glowing, the focal point of all this. She dipped forward as they felt very heavy, her hands instinctively cupping her breasts. They wobbled at her touch, all on their own with indifference to gravity, and swelled. Jade made a squeaking noise of surprise, and then it melted into delight; waves of pleasure flooded into her from her chest. Oh! It had felt good, growing like this with her test batches, but nothing like this!
A cup size fluxed out, and then another, pushing at the fabric of her robes. Two more swelled out, pushing her palms down to support them, and they flowed out over her hands. They kept growing; bigger and bigger! The weight of them, rising with each sudden bouncy surge, was making Jade lean forwards, her breasts rising outwards. More than extra cup sizes, now, her breasts were almost doubled from what they’d been.
The magic surged and amplified her body, adding more mass, more flesh, more everything. Her breasts kept expanding, growing outwards, so heavy that she was bent nearly double, her robes straining out and pulling up from the weight. “Yyyeah!” Jade cheered, the delight coursing through her.
And the magic was slowly expended, totally absorbed and transmuted into more Jade. She breathed out as the growth slowed, a couple more inches adding on with each breath, and then it stopped altogether.
The sensation of power and pleasure alike faded from her. Dave gaped as she stood up to her full, imposing height; her breasts were huge, and Jade’s fingers gently traced their expansive outlines, the fabric stretched and almost translucent against her skin now.
Down, down her hands went, feeling her breasts. Much bigger than anticipated. She heard a distinctive sloshing noise, too, when she jiggled enough. Down, all the way past… goodness! Past her ribs, and then when she found the bottom of her breasts, they lay near her navel.
Almost two and a high feet high was each breast, she guessed. She shifted upright, and felt a very pleasurable bounce. Slung out by at least three feet, two, perhaps four!
She breathed in, hissing it out through a grin that was a little bit manic, and she said “Ohh, yes, this is definitely a success.” Now, she panted heavily. “Ooh…” She breathed in and out again, her newly expanded assets heaving with such weight she felt dragged forward. It felt like so much of her was in front of her now… it felt good. “That’s… that’s a fun sensation….”
Impulsively, Jade took Dave’s hand, her fingers squeezing gently around his palm. She smiled just a bit impishly, sharp teeth glinting behind her lips, and she felt Dave’s pulse quicken. His expression didn’t change, not one bit. Not a single muscle even twitched, and his expression was like stone. And Jade knew about stone, and a little bit about geology, and she knew enough that there was always a lot going on beneath mountains that looked all calm and steady, but on the inside?
They were exploding. And Dave could keep his face steady, but he couldn’t do much of anything about the hot blush coloring his cheeks.
Jade leaned in close and gave him a soft, brief kiss on the cheek.
Her breasts, so recently swelled by her potions, pressed against his chest. His body was thin but so firm, so strong; the ideal surface for her bustline to squsih against, and press out, the pulse of her heartbeat passing into his body. Against the plane of his chest, her own chest squashed deep, and she thought in a wild and romantic suddenness that it was like pressing her heart against his own.
She felt their breath twin, for a moment, and then his own stopped. She exhaled, gusting it against his chin, and she kissed him again in the cheek, in the same spot.
And finally Jade pulled away. Her breasts, bouncing freely in their sub-par restraint, wobbled heavily as she moved back, and it was completely on purpose.
Dave’s shades were slipping. The red glow beneath them was nearly visible. “Holy shit,” he said simply.
She realized he was staring, and she grinned, a little sheepishly and a little smugly. Pride welled up in her, at a job well done.
“Hey, I’m freaked out too, but watch the goddamn language,” a laconic voice said from the window.
Both Dave and Jade whirled around; towards the window.
Where what had to be at least a good third of the town was ogling her, and her new ‘features’.
The speaker was Dirk Strider; looking very much like a somewhat older version of Dave, a bit broader overall, his arms crossed over the window. Behind him was the Chief Courier, her porcelain-white shell glittering in the sunlight; she looked, as much as her face could be seen beneath the concealing uniforms she favored, a mix of amused and intrigued. Most people there seemed to have the same vibe.
Terezi was there too, looming over everyone else there, a big dragon-like troll with wings furled around her like a cape, and now she was grinning knowingly.
Jade instinctively covered herself, eyes wide, and she hurriedly thought: ‘What do I do!? What am I supposed to say?! Oh gosh they’re all looking at me!”
And then she thought: ‘Wait.
‘Isn’t this an opportunity?’
She stamped down the embarrassment and frustration at being watched, and declared, with a cheery tone, gesturing at herself, “So! Who might be interested in purchasing the next batch of my beauty elixirs, that’ll give you a body like this!?’
Her mortified feelings felt a bit dimmer at the glee of all the hands shooting straight up.
------
A couple weeks passed, after that.
There was a lot to do: adjust to her new body (oh, how doors were starting to be a problem! And clothes! She had to get them made special, or they’d pinch), going back with Dave to get the ingredients, preparing the next batches of potion for the rush of demand she was suddenly being met with…
Between the constant brewing, hunting down the ingredients from the most magically potent parts of the forests, needing to negotiate with the tailors, and all that, Jade had hardly any time with Dave.
That was a little sad, actually.
--------
But, as fortune would have it, he dropped in not long after that; he didn’t get to witness Jade testing more of her potions on herself, once she was satisfied with consistently bigger growth, and without Dave, she suspected her growth was being slowed. Warm feelings had something to do with it, she was sure.
“Dave!” Jade said, rushing over to him, nearly knocked over a couple people who were milling around her shop. Her breasts alone knocked a few people out of the way, and others quickly moved aside to get out of the way before they were bowled over.
Dave started to speak, but all the wind went right out of him as Jade lifted him clear off the ground, into a powerful and happy hug. “It’s been way too long!” Jade said happily, to some happy but muffled noises from Dave. He was pinned between her boobs, so it wasn’t surprising.
The other people in the shop awkwardly looked away, or giggled, or thought wistfully of envious thoughts for Dave’s position. Jane Crocker, a long-time friend of Jade’s, grinned at the pair, her own table slightly shifting weight from the pressure her potion-expanded breasts put on it; fully one side of it was covered by them, and she’d discreetly adjusted her coat to prevent any wardrobe malfunctions.
“Jade, help, need to breathe,” Dave managed to get out.
“Oops! Sorry!” Jade said. She dropped Dave, with a sheepish smile.
A voice cleared itself from behind her.
Jade turned around; the shop was fairly crowded now. But it had been, ever since she’d brought out her new line of potions. People had come to her all the time in any case; for potions of fertility or physical enhancement to strength and resistance, or giving big claws or aesthetic features like that; the occasional transformation for more height, or shrinking themselves a little bit. The healing potions had been quite popular, too. But her shop wasn’t built to have as many people as it did now waiting around, especially when after taking the potions they tended to hang around for a while, adjusting to their new bodies. Results still varied; some people got only a modest boost, while others grew as big as Jade had after months of careful experimenting and gradual growth (at least up to the first line of her bust enhancement potions, anyway). Jade remembered the kiss to Dave, and the warm feelings in her heart, and how much stronger the magic had felt then.
She was considering advertising them as best with mushy feelings.
The point was, Jade wasn’t very good at picking people out in the shop, since it wasn’t something she’d had to deal with until now. But now she realized that someone had come in with Jade.
Terezi Pyrope grinned; nearly twice as big as even Jade herself, looming over even the tallest people in town, she was a giantess among them, her body scaled in a way no troll normally was. A thick tail curled around her, and a great pair of wings flapped just enough to ensure that people steered clear of her. Jade found herself unconsciously ogling her; Terezi was big, enormously stacked on a scale equal to Jade herself, but somehow she felt… even bigger. The boobs were proportionately about the same as her own, but Terezi herself was so big that Jade could have used her breasts as exercise balls… or even cots!
Karkat was there, as he usually was; it was very rare to see one of them without the other. He hovered around her like an attendant, or a priest from old stories when the gods had walked the world, their clerics in tow. Jade had her own theories about that, given the sheer power radiating from Terezi…
But that was a thought for another time. Now she smiled. “You here on a professional level, or is this a friend visit?”
“A bit of both,” Terezi said. “You, uh, doing okay. You’ve been… going through some changes.”
Jade glanced down, and she felt aware of the eyes of others right on her expanded cleavage. She didn’t mind and laughed, privately cheering at all the attention on her hard work, with a great feeling of pride and confidence. “You could say that! But it was all on purpose so I don’t think it’s anything to be concerned about, you know.”
Terezi chuckled. “Yeah, I figured. See? And Karkat was all worried about it!”
Karkat scoffed. “Someone had to. And Dave wanted someone to say something!”
“Dude, noooo….” DAve said meekly.
Jade turned towards him, head tilted. “Oh? Was someone concerned?” She grinned.
“...Maybe.”
“Oh, you should just hear what he says all the time,” Karkat said loftily, with the air of someone dropping a relationship rock right into a crowded social event. “It’s mortifying.”
Jade giggled. “Oh? I hope you’re saying nice things about me!”
Dave looked about ready to melt. “I dunno what they're talking about,” he said, trying to find refuge in denial.
“It’s so sappy,” Terezi said in a stage whisper.
“Aw!” Jade kissed Dave on the cheek, right in front of everyone. He made a precious ‘Hr-RK!’ noise that made her giggle again.
Terezi giggled as Dave awkwardly shuffled away, finding a desk and trying to recover his dignity. “But, seriously. I was wanting to buy a couple of these potions, maybe.”
That was a surprise to Jade; as the thrill of teasing Dave faded, she looked up and saw just more of Terezi’s massive, vision-filling bustline. They were so big already! As big as her own! “You don’t think you’ve got enough already…?” Jade asked, cautiously.
Terezi snorted. “You can always go bigger. And that’s kinda funny, coming from someone who’s still sampling her own goods.”
“Hmph. I don’t know what THAT means.” Jade tried to cross her arms over her chest but her breasts had gotten too big for her to do so easily. And true to Terezi’s words, they were in fact bigger than they had been during the initial growth, during the public event that had gotten all this attention. They were starting to tip closer to her waistline; it wasn’t too MUCH bigger, a product of Jade carefully watering down the samples as she kept experimenting on herself, and downplayed by her heavy work robes, but it was still a fair point. At least half a foot outwards, if not too much deeper.
“Well, I dunno. Let’s give you a baseline to outdo, hrm?” Terezi grinned. “Say, how much ARE these potions?”
Jade listed a number. It was a comfortable price that wasn’t too expensive, but didn’t diminish the effort it took to get the resources to make them; she viewed peddling them as a public service, in some ways. Terezi tossed some coins her way, and Jade handed her one of the bubbling flasks.
Terezi immediately popped the cork off. “Oooh,” Karkat said, eyes wide and amazed, realizing what she meant. Terezi lolled her massive tongue out and picked up the flask with her tongue, popping it into her mouth and draining the whole elixir down her throat in a single, heavy draught. Her thick tongue probed the flask, looking for every drop.
“You might wanna get closer to Terezi,” Jade quietly told Karkat. “It, uh, helps the change.”
Karkat hugged Terezi’s thigh, his arms squeezing deep into her ample flesh. “What do you mean-” He started to say.
“Eep!” Terezi exclaimed, magic radiating from her body, tinged with that special flavor of affection; her hand drifted right towards Karkat, and Jade knew that was just the right thing. “That’s the key!’ she thought. ‘That’s how to get big!’
And perhaps just to prove her point, Terezi grew. A little bit taller, but not much; a few inches, maybe. Just as well, given she was already a giant. Her hips swelled out, packing on a few extra inches; perhaps a finger span wider on both sides, and she was already so massively curvy that there might have not been that much to grow. Her clothes creaked heavily, especially as her big butt filled out even more, a few people behind her making awed noises at the wealth of butt they must have seen pushing up from the fabric enclosure. Her tail swelled, getting a little rounder, a little bit more like an eel’s tail…
Her breasts, though, erupted. In a single fluid motion, they swelled outwards, fluxing out like a cup being filled with water. They billowed, the teardrop shape growing more pronounced; from her gut, down to her waist. Her breasts expanded, and sideways too, swelling out so much that Terezi’s broad shoulders couldn’t even be seen. Most of her formidable body shape, in fact, was obscured; just her big hips, her huge thighs, the tail and wings, and those massive boobs.
Fabric tore. Her gut forced her boobs apart as it settled down, her stomach rising through the cleavage, and her shirt started to fray under the impact.
It was the quickest growth, and a particularly dramatic one; it was over almost immediately, and Jade gawked when she just had to acknowledge the reality of Terezi’s bustiness.
“Hah!” Terezi thrust her breasts out, openly delighted. “Beat that!”
Jade huffed. “Oh, I will!”
Karkat goggled. “Okay oh wow that is BIG.
From the side, Terezi’s breasts stuck out at least several additional feet; she probably couldn’t gather them up even if she stuck her arms out and pulled as much of her boobs in as possible. And given how big she was, they were big enough to use as exercise balls, or to sleep with. And from Karkat’s size… they must have looked so massive.
Terezi was probably thinking about that. Still smiling, she picked up Karkat, ignoring his usual token protests at being manhandled, and stuffed him right into her cleavage. His head popped out, expression suddenly completely calm, and then she pushed him down, completely contained.
Her face looked so peaceful. “Ooh yeah. That’s the stuff.” She grinned at Dave and Jade, gawking at her. “Hope this gives you ideas, Jade. Buh-bye!” With that, she walked off, Karkat encased in her cleavage.
Dave watched her go. Even her back was hypnotic, butt swelling up like a pair of wagons attached to her. “Sure did a number on her,” he said weekly. “What do you think she meant by that, anyway?”
“I dunno,” Jade lied. She thought about being so big she could do that to Dave.. stuffing him so close to her…
Her shirt felt tighter. Her breasts wobbled all on their own, and suddenly surged  a few sizes bigger. Dave saw the growth. “Did-did you just grow? Without taking any potion?!”
“Ooh, that’s… new!” She wasn’t really thinking about it, though. She was still watching Terezi strut off, all sexy and big.
“You’re not worried? Huh. Neat, I guess.”
She wasn’t really listening, either. Privately, Jade felt a surge of… envy, she supposed. Not that wasn’t quite it. It wasn’t that she wanted what Terezi had now.
She wanted more than what Terezi had now; it was like a competition, in some way. Terezi had outdone her, for now. But… her eyes narrowed. She wouldn’t let herself stay outdone!
She glanced up at Terezi’s mammoth body, where Karkat peacefully resting between her breasts, and she thought that maybe she DID envy Terezi having a boyfriend she could fit into her boobs. She then looked at Dave with an appraising look that made him feel strangely snuggly.

It had been quite some time since Chahut and Konyyl had been in town. The pair of them spent a great deal of time traveling abroad, to the other scattered townships and city-states, trading where they could and gathering things to sell back home. To be honest, and they’d had to correct others on this point (Konyyl irritably, and Chahut with a gentleness belying the terrible violence she could perform), they didn’t do the actual trading. They were hired muscle, protecting the merchants from bandits, overly strict travel policies, and sometimes shaking down someone trying to weasel out of paying on a deal.
They enjoyed their work; the traveling, and the hitting things. Still, while they’d been very well paid for what they did, staying on constant work wasn’t as appealing as the thought of going home until the next trade season rolled around.
Chahut was a very tall woman, even among trolls, who were generally bigger than humans or carapacians. Konyyl was a big woman too, and the two of them had similar thick-set body types; Konyyl with more obvious musculature, but given that Chahut was nearly twice her size, she looked bigger in every way. The two of them normally had no trouble clearing the way, with size and dark charisma and sheer force of ‘don’t mess with me’.
‘Normally’ being the keyword.
“I don’t, uh, recall everyone being this big,” Konyyl said as they walked past a crowd. She stood head and shoulders over most others, her own head somewhere around Chahut’s elbow, but that wasn’t the kind of big she was concerned about. Two carapacians, a few trolls and a human tottering behind them all went past them, diverting around them like water around a stone, and each of them had breasts as big as prize-winning pumpkins; the smallest had breasts as big as their heads, and the largest… their torsos, and some of their stomachs, couldn’t even be seen behind a wall of cleavage.
In fact, just about everyone they saw was sporting a bustline that dwarfed the pair of them. Konyyl crossed her muscular arms over her chest self-consciously. It was making her feel… small.
“Me neither,” Chahut said eventually. She sounded diffident, calm. But then… was she? Her voice had a slight tone of uncertainty. She glanced down at herself. Chahut wasn’t exactly a proud beauty, and Konyyl supposed that Chahut had never regarded her amplitude as anything except a minor facet of her physical form, but still. This was concerning.
“Something must have happened while we were gone,” Konyyl said, looking very off-balanced. “Some kind of weird magical event… maybe a weather thing, loaded up with magic?”
“A boob-storm?” Chahut’s tone dripped with amusement. “Now there’s a weird image.”
“Yeah, yeah, laugh it up. Like to see you explain what’s going on here!”
Chahut turned. Their latest employer was hurrying over to them, and she noticed something else that way. “A potion that makes boobs bigger got real popular, maybe?”
“Well, maybe.”
“Look, little beefy.” Chahut pointed, and Konyyl turned. Down that way, there was a small advert board; freshly painted, from the smell. It displayed a grinning Jade Harley (a familiar figure to the both of them, though they didn’t know her closely, but everyone bought from Jade; they’d spent a lot of time at her shop, taking deliveries for a trading run), her face squeezed into a corner. The rest of it was taken up by her breasts, flooding over the entire billboard; absurdly massive, they were, extending out by at least five feet! The style of the ad was fairly cutesy, as fit her tastes in artwork, but they looked big enough to dip to her thighs, so big she could sleep on them.
ON the ad, between the art-drawn Jade, there was a bottled potion. “Want a bustline like mine? Come down to Jade’s Alchemical Esoterica for all your bust expansion needs!” the ad’s text said, in a cheery green font.
“Konyyl! Chahut!” said their employer, a human, and pointed at the ad. “Did you see!?”
“Kind of hard not to,” Konyyl quipped. Chahut nodded gravely.
“Not that! I mean… whoa, that’s a hell of an eyecatcher… but no! I mean, Jade’s shop is that way! Have you seen her yet!?”
“No?” Konyyl tilted her head. “Why?”
“I just… look, I gotta get a group together. We’ll need to find a demonstrator, and a caravan equipped to transport potion goods… gods, we’ll make so much money! But, ah!” The human fretted, trying to balance too many things at once in the mind, and thrust two large pouches heavy with coinage at them. “Here! So I don’t forget! Your pay for this trip. I gotta go, just… you might wanna drop in at Jade’s?”
And then, the human ran off, so full of excitement that there was a little bit of hopping and dancing. The two troll women watched him go. “Well,” Konyyl said. “I don’t have anything else going on. Azdaja’s got a while before he meets up with me. What about you?”
“Eh, same here. Not the bit about Azdaja,” Chahut replied, with a wry tusk-filled grin. “Let’s check it out, eh?”
The two of them followed the path to Jade’s shop. As they went, they were struck that navigating the marketplace was a more tricky affair than they remembered it being; almost every woman there was obscenely buxom, occupying at least a couple of feet in front of them with enough boobage to produce scandals in some of the more prim places they’d been. Both trolls moved very carefully to avoid bumping into someone’s breasts, and considering how much of that there was, it was very hard going.
It seemed demand for whatever Jade was selling was dropping; there weren’t that many people there, though all of them tended towards the same buxom frame. The few exceptions were doing their best to fix that; as they entered, they heard Jade’s cheery voice: “And try to drain it down in a single gulp! It won’t do any good to save some for later, it’ll transform you just the same. Be sure to drink lots of water and have plenty of food, you’re gonna be hungry!”
There was Jade, standing in her shop, her back turned to the entrance. Konyyl and Chahut were momentarily stunned. Jade looked so… thick. Even more than she used to be, even more than Konyyl! (Though at least, Konyyl reflected, Jade didn’t quite have the muscle.) A fairly slim dress as vibrantly green as her namesake jewel, clinging tightly to a body that seemed to be a waterfall of slowly expanding curves; a broad and huggable torso, an expanding waistline straining the limits of a dress, with hips so broad that it must have been hard to get through a doorway. At least a couple feet across!
Her butt, plump and round enough that a very small caparacian could have sat on it with room to kick up their legs, waggled back and forth as she spoke. Quite a lot of her big, unbelievably wide thighs must have been taken up with that butt. Konyyl felt her mouth go a bit dry, just at the sight of it. Even Chahut seemed impressed.
Though she did seem to have other things on her mind. “What’s that she’s got in front of her?” She wondered, squinting.
“Not sure,” Konyyl said. Two objects spread out in front of Jade from their angle, taking up a lot of space directly in front of her. She shrugged. “Let’s go in and get some answers.” They both stepped in, the bell atop the door ringing. A few people saw them and greeted them; at the door, sitting on a chair and off-duty, was Dave, waving to the both of them.]
“Sup,” He said pleasantly. “Try not to let her mow ya down.”
He sounded like he was talking from experience. He grinned a little saying it, so it wasn't a bad experience, either. Konyyl didn’t get a chance to ask about it; Jade had started turning around when she heard the doorbell, and the prospective potion buyer had already left with their purchase, and both Konyyl and Chahut stopped cold, mouths open and thoughts empty, when they saw Jade from the front.
The advertisement had not exaggerated, in the slightest. Completely obscuring the front of Jade’s body was the biggest… widest… roundest…
Konyyl’s brain shut down, a little bit. Jade approached. The shutting down got worse. There was just so much… bouncing. And that dress! The cleavage deep enough for her to sink into! Over four feet deep! Cut down to the belly, rounder and firmer, and it was making her look so curvy, just like a fertility icon of the Dragon Goddess…
(Distantly, Terezi had a vague feeling that someone was referring to her, or at least her true nature. She shrugged and got on with what she was doing, which was beating Karkat in a game of strategy despite not even knowing the rules.)
It had been a while since Terezi’s big transformation. Jade had taken her challenge to heart; she’d been growing periodically on her own, but she’d boosted the effects with regular intakes of potion, and spending lots of time with Dave, whenever possible, and the effects were definitely knocking the two trolls about.
Even Chahut was completely lost for words. Well, most words. She managed to get out: “...Hi, Jade?”
“WHAT THE HECK,” Konyyl demanded. She flung her beefy arms out, gesturing at Jade. “We leave for like a few months and you’re all… all… everyone is all…” She inhaled. She let it out with a cry of “Big! WHY.”
Jade swept both trolls, taller than her, into a powerful hug. The both of them, by no means frail, made squeaking noises as Jade’s surprising strength shoved the remaining air right out, or perhaps that was the full weight of her monstrously huge boobs shoving into them. From throat to Jade’s legs they spanned her body, probably weighing more than she did. It had to be her own enormous strength that prevented them from being a physical hindrance, or some kind of wacky magic?
Jade parted from them, the pair still stunned. “So!” She said, a flirty tone in her words. Dave watched, grinning expectantly. “How do I look~?”
“You look… good,” Konyyl said weakly.
“Big,” Chahut agreed, and it was so very surreal to see her look so shaken.
Jade grinned. “You guys haven’t been in town a while. I bet everyone’s looking a little bigger than they used to, eh?”
Konyyl made the connection; the advertisement, Jade’s potions, Jade’s own size… “Was it… did you do a magic thing?”
Jade pulled out a basketful of potions that could have fit into her cleavage with ease. Given that she did a little twirl before bringing it out, it was entirely possible she’d been hiding it in her cleavage for such a dramatic moment. “I might have come up with a potion that does some boob embiggening, yeah!” She grinned wickedly, dangling one in front of them. Both women stared at it, sense of intrigue naked on their expressions. “What do you think? Might you be interested?”
“I might,” Chahut said.
Konyyl tugged out her coin purse. “SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY, SEDUCTRESS!”
Jade giggled and passed their purchases as Chahut and Konyyl got a couple each. “Be sure to take them when you’re with someone that you’re close to, or at least makes you feel happy. Like a friend, or something romantic.” She looked at Dave for a moment, across the shop, and absently tapped a massive breast, as if to say ‘he is responsible for this’. “It, um. Seems to help make bigger growth.”
Chahut and Konyyl glanced at him, and then Jade. Chahut made a heart-shape with her fingers. Konyyl said, “You and him…? Is that a thing?”
Jade fluished. “Well, I dunno. Um.” Her confidence, so recently ironclad and as abundant as her bustline, faltered. “It might be?”
The two women chuckled at that, with the tone of someone who had suspected it was a thing for quite a while, and left. Well, Jade thought, People were going to assume it was a thing, the way they liked to talk!
She didn’t really mind the thought, though.
It felt… official.
-------
And then, a few weeks onward, and word spread: even faster and wider than Jade’s bustline, or the average growth rate in town. Word of Jade’s marvelous bust-enhancing potions, and the increases many people had reported in their physical strength.
Caravans had already left, loaded up with bust potion, to peddle them to distant lands. Already, people who’d heard of it from travelers bearing incredibly massive breasts had come there, and left with potions and mighty busts of their own. And they’d told people, who came and told others when they got back…
And word had spread, of this town with its genius alchemist who’d captured a little bit of the past and its faculty for body modification elixirs for fun and profit.
Now, people were coming to town every day, caravans of them, traders zeroing in on the town, and not just for the potion, but for the other goods the town offered.
So, feeling rather dazed, Jade found herself being handed a big trophy, and a hearty handshake from the mayor.
A small, impish figure (so similar to the imps that lurked outside town, in fact, that Jade felt bad when her excursions required fighting them), his black shell glistening in the light like a little playing piece in the kind of games Terezi liked to play. Jade felt enormously self conscious and smiled awkwardly as what must have been a good portion of the town sat expectedly in the auditorium, listening to his speech. Or what bits they could understand; the Mayor spoke exclusively in the private language of the carapacian people, and the Chief Courier translated hurriedly, as best she could. Judging from her winces and split-second word swaps, the Mayor’s actual words were probably fairly profane and coarse at best.
“...And so, for your breakthrough in aesthetic transfigurations bringing such trade to us, we have prospered as we never have before!” The chief courier said. “Food, valuable minerals, magical substances of every kind, and livestock are flooding in, and we are doing better than we ever had!’”
“I didn’t mean to start an economic revolution,” Jade said meekly. “I just thought people would find my invention cool…”
“Well, we’re getting filthy stinking rich,’” the courier said, her expression implying this was the nice translation. “‘So all’s good! In my book! Now, go on, take your… um… yeah, I can’t translate that.” The mayor scowled at her, and waved a hand at Jade.
Jade took the award, a heavy gold thing that would look very nice on a necklace, though it’d probably sink into her cleavage. “Oh, very well… thank you so much! I’m glad to be of service!”
She bowed to the enriched crowd as they applauded, but she tried not to bow too much. Her boobs had continued to grow and grow, and her experiments had finally died down a little in efficacy; regardless of what she put in them, she was only getting a little bit of growth, and she figured she had reached the peak of what her potion could reasonably do, for the present. Her breasts had reached the biggest size she could manage for now.
But what a size it was! Most of Jade’s body mass was now in her breasts, she wasn’t any skinnier or less thick (indeed, her hips had continued to grow, so much so that doorways were too skinny for her now; four feet across, and counting, with a butt sticking three feet out and just the right shape for Dave to sit on it), but if her weight was to be counted, so much of it was in her breasts that she thought of them as the core of herself now.
She wasn’t sure of the actual weight. The scales kept busting. But they were so large that their bottoms dipped down, down, all the way past her knees! Each breast was four feet height, and over eight feet across, obscuring almost her entire body when seen from a front, a size proportionately equaled by no one. The weight of them moving, when she did, was so divine; she felt such pleasure at every bounce and wiggle, a micro-burst of euphoria whenever it surged forward and dragged her along with it.
She glanced at the crowd; she saw Terezi, looming over it, grinning and wiggling her claws at her, and Karkat on her head like an excitable crown, mirroring her friendly gesture. Near them was Chahut and Konyyl, their own breasts as big as the most abundantly fertile gourds; at least down to the naval, and she felt proud in making such big and beautiful women even larger.
Again she thought: No one is as big as me! She felt proud, and more than the award she held, her own body felt like a testament to her willingness to experiment.
She glanced at Dave. He’d helped. Not just the stuff he’d gathered; just being there for her, and the feelings he brought out in her. That was part of it, she was sure. Every time she’d started to grow really big, he’d been there, making her feel big. A feeling in her heart, expanding out and her body growing to match…
It was wonderfully, obnoxiously sappy. She had to love it.
The Mayor followed her gaze, and misunderstanding her thoughts, spoke at length. “The mayor would like to thank Mister Dave Strider for his tireless efforts in helping Miss Harley… despite it being on work hours,” The chief courier added in a stern tone. The mayor nudged her as if to say ‘get on with it!’. “Oh, right. Anyway. Please step up to the podium?”
“What?” Dave stepped over, looking surprised. “What? Oh, come on. This is all Jade!”
“I couldn’t have done it without your help,” Jade said sincerely, gazing down at him, eyes half-lidded and warm.
He flustered in the light. “Don’t be sappy, come onnnn….”
“I mean it!” She thought of a way to convince him that, yes, she really was saying it to be honest, and a wild idea came in front of her. In front of all these people, though? Part of her qualed at the thought…
But another part of her, proud and reveling in having such a massive, buxom bustline, retorted: ‘If we’re gonna be shy now, what’s even the point of having such magnificent boobs!?”
Jade thus leaned forward, her breasts clearing the floor, and encircling Dave’s whole body; he was caught up in boob-age, enwrapped and captured, and he managed a squeak of alarm as Jade tilted her body up, bouncing him even deeper into her cleavage, his whole body imprisoned and his face closer to her own-
And she moved her face to his own, and kissed him firm, softly, right on the mouth.
Lip to lip, the kiss deepened, like a promise she hadn’t realized she’d made
Dave initially didn’t respond, in his shock. And then, to her delight, he deepened the kiss on his own, sincere and honest as she knew he really was afraid to be. She didn’t think about it being in front of so many people, but later she thought: this was the best way to do it. To prove she was serious, showing it on her big moment.
The mayor, blushing, said something like “oh my!” The chief courier goggled for a moment, and she glanced at the mayor, and considered buying a few potions from Jade later, on the quiet.
“What’s going on?!” Terezi asked impatiently, her senses not able to compensate for her blindness this once.
“Dave and Jade are hooking up, I think,” Karkat said laconically on her head. “She’s doing the kinda thing to him that you like to do to me.”
“Boob sandwich?!”
“Yep.”
“Hah! I knew she’d do that!”
Chahut whistled, very much impressed. Konyyl nudged Azdaja by boob-bumping him; as it was, he’d been sitting down in front of her, his horns and height just right for her to rest her new bustline on top of his head. “This give you any ideas, eh?” She asked, grinning wildly.
“Yeah but I think you beat me to them,” He replied calmly.
The kiss kept going on, as the audience took it in. Dave and Jade, together? The overall vibe was less surprise, or shock or scandal (the town being a fairly amiable place, after all), and more ‘oh so that finally happened’. Not surprising, given the general opinion of the pair.
“All right, all right!” The chief courier said, shushing the smooching pair. “That’s enough! On your own time, you two!”
Jade allowed her breasts to settle, and down Dave went. He gracefully slid through her cleavage and back onto the floor, and awkwardly stepped away. He remembered the heat of her body, blushing intensely. He rarely showed clear emotion, or expressed himself too openly…
But now, he was smiling.
Dirk and Hal, in the crowd, both cracked their own smiles at the sight. “There ya go, little bro,” Dirk said softly.
“You owe me money now,” Hal said gleefully. “And here you bet it’d be another half-year before they hooked up!”
Dirk rolled his eyes and passed the construct some coins. “It was a safe bet. Took them this long to hook up!”
The ceremony ended soon enough, after that. People filed out, one after another, some of them pausing to congratulate Jade again. Others went to congratulate Dave.
But soon enough, the two of them were alone. Dave had some trouble marshalling his thoughts, the feeling of Jade’s warmth everywhere around him so beguiling that it was easier to just lose himself in the memory, not in the now....
He did his best, though. “Hey, Jade?” Dave asked.
Jade, thinking about the lovely feeling of Dave’s whole body in her cleavage, pinned and safe there, his heart beating into her whole-breast pulse, made a soft murmuring sound. “Mm?”
“What do you think about, eh… going on a walk or something. When things quiet down, I mean.”
She smiled sweetly. “I’d like that.” She leaned to the side and kissed him again.
It was the kind of kiss a lover gives.

Playlist and previous chapters can be found on my Master List (link in bio)
Tumblr media
Wednesday morning, y/n groggily pulled herself out of bed. She still hadn’t replied to Harrison’s text from the morning before. 
She had felt bad about inviting him and Tom, just to have the shit show with Jace unfold. Her apology was sincere, but the morning after, she felt weird about continuing the conversation after he had said that they still had a great time. 
She pulled on a warm sweater and a pair of black jeans before rushing through a simple hair and makeup routine in her bathroom. By the time she was out the door, she had 15 minutes to get to class. Her walk was 10 minutes on a good day, but that morning wasn’t too nice to her. 
She was already 1 minute late by the time she passed the coffee shop she always stopped at. She figured since she was already late, she might as well stop. 
She walked into class 8 minutes late, her professor looked up from his spot in the front of the classroom. 
“Well look who decided to show up,” he called, the smile on his face anything but sincere. 
“Better late than never,” her expression mirrored his as she made her way to her seat, where Harrison was already settled. 
Her professor made his way over to her seat as well, gazing down at her as she pulled her laptop from her bag. 
“I thought we agreed the tardiness was going to end.”
“This will be the last time.”
“Somehow I don’t believe you. And quick tip, next time consider skipping the coffee. Might shave a few minutes off of your commute.”
She scoffed at him as he walked away. 
“Sorry I’m late,” she said to Harrison, not looking at his amused face while she pulled up the app she used to sketch. 
“That little interaction was worth the wait.”
They spent the next 15 minutes discussing style. They both decided to go for some more daring looks, hoping it would score them some extra points on the final grade. 
Halfway through the hour, they all packed up their stuff and made their way to the theatre building. The room they used to store costumes was huge. The walls were lined with endless racks stacked upon each other, all filled with hundreds of garments. The middle of the room was filled with circle racks, all containing various types of clothing. 
Y/n dragged Harrison over to a rack filled with jackets that looked straight out of the closet from a pimp in the 70’s. Harrison’s initial reaction wasn’t too excited, but as she searched, he was pleased with the few she plucked from the rail. 
“How do you feel about a royal purple?”
“I look good in everything,” he bragged sarcastically. 
“Oh do you now?”
“Sure do.”
“Would you like to test that theory?”
She started to back up towards a rack full of cloth that appeared to be colored like various animal skins. She didn’t break eye contact as she got closer, reaching for one of the garments. 
“I could make the ugliest thing in here look amazing.” 
She closed the distance between her hand and the item, pulling if off the rack and holding it out to him. Upon closer inspection, he found that it was a cow costume, udder and all. The only missing piece was a head. 
“I’ll be back,” he called. He disappeared through the door, going into one of the dressing rooms kept off the side of the black box that the theatre department occasionally held events in. 
Y/n continued to look for pieces she liked. She knew the assignment was fashion, and her portfolio had to be bigger and better than any other students. That meant she had to get out of her comfort zone and present more than one kind of outfit. She chose some interesting t shirts, sweaters, and pants, hoping Harrison would return soon to help her with her decisions. 
As she was going to search for some pairs of shoes, she saw the cow print out of the corner of her eyes. She met Harrison’s gaze, and the second she took in his appearance fully, she burst out laughing. He approached her, keeping a smug look on his face. 
She reigned in her laughter as he approached her, holding his hands out to present his full appearance to her. 
“You look ‘udder’-ly amazing.”
“I told you, I can make it all look good.”
He winked at her, sending a small blush across her cheeks. But she sent that flustered feeling away as quickly as it came to her. 
“So I found some other items, but I wanted to know what you thought. Want to go try them on?”
She followed him to the dressing room this time, waiting right outside the door while he tried on the full outfits she had laid out for him. 
They had narrowed it down to 3 definite outfits, but she was hoping for five.
They went back in to search for some more clothes, but y/n was getting increasingly frustrated with the quality of the clothes. 
"We're really scraping the bottom of the barrel now," she groaned as she pulled another button up shirt from the rack. It was brown with a darker brown pattern on it. It almost resembled the inverse of a Louis Vuitton bag, it was just 15 times uglier. 
"You just have no taste," she heard a teasing voice from the other side of the rack. She rolled her eyes before she stood on her tip-toes to see over the clothes. "Put a sock in it, Robin," she spat at the boy as he showed a rude, sarcastic smile.  
Y/n grabbed the clothes she had gathered and made her way back to the dressing room with heavy feet. 
"What was that all about?" Harrison asked, trailing behind her. 
"That's just Robin, the bane of my existence," she huffed, shoving the clothes into Harrison's hands so he could try them on. 
"He had some pretty nice outfits chosen."
"Are you trying to say he has better taste than me?" y/n asked, half offended, half chuckling. 
"No, just saying, it would be a shame if they somehow ended up in our pile."
"I'm not sneaky enough to steal them," she laughed, but he just winked at her in response. He handed her the pile of clothes and quietly made his way back into the costume room. Y/n kept her distance, but watched intently as Harrison made his way towards Robin. He pretended to look on the same rack until Robin ended up setting his pile of clothes on a chair. Y/n almost couldn't contain her laughter as she watched Harrison not so stealthily grab one of the sweaters and trip over his own two feet as he ran back to her. Luckily he didn't fall and didn't catch Robin's attention, but it was still funnier than the sight of him in the cow costume. 
At the end of the hour, they had found a full 5 outfits. 
Harrison sure had the cockiness of a model, fully convinced he could make anything look good. But his sense of humor and willingness to sabotage her competition were traits that y/n could get behind. 
They returned to the class room to get the rest of their belongings. Y/n was about to head home, her arms full of their clothing items, when Harrison stopped her. 
“Are you busy right now?”
“Well, I’d like to set these down, but besides that, no.”
“Would you want to sketch out some more ideas with me? Get ahead of everyone else?”
She took a second to think about it, but the idea of being ahead of Robin was too tempting, so she nodded her head. 
Harrison took half of the clothes from her arms and began to walk. 
They decided to drop all of the clothes off at her apartment and work in her living room. Sierra and Jace were both in classes and y/n figured it was easier to just stay there to work. 
When they got inside, she took all the clothes from his arms and took them to her room, telling him to make himself at home on one of their couches while she took the clothing and hung them all in her closet, hoping to prevent any wrinkling.
She retuned to the living room with her laptop. Harrison was eyeing the decor in the room as she opened her computer to show him some of her ideas. 
She had collected a plethora of inspiration, some saved on boards on pinterest and others saved into a folder on her computer. As they went through different possibilities, she crudely sketched out any ideas that came up between them.
Y/n found herself surprised by how much she enjoyed Harrison’s input. She wasn’t exactly used to working on projects with other people, but that had never been a problem. She usually preferred to work alone, and the stuff she could come up with was amazing. But Harrison’s input was extremely helpful to polish her ideas. 
A few hours and hundreds of pictures later, Jace and Sierra came into the apartment together. Y/n and Harrison were laughing about the picture she had pulled up. She was trying to convince him that the ridiculous pose was a must have for the portfolio, Harrison didn’t seem to agree. They were both still laughing about it when the door opened, halting the laughter coming from y/n. 
“What’s going on here?” Sierra asked, amused at the sight of her best friend on the couch with her new boyfriend’s best friend. 
“We’re working on a project,” y/n stated quickly, shooting both her roommates a knowing look. She knew what they were both going to assume about her being alone with a boy in their apartment, but she wanted to shut that down the second it came to their minds. 
“Sureeeee,” Sierra trailed off as she disappeared into her room, making y/n roll her eyes and chuckle in annoyance. 
Jace disappeared into his room without a word, and y/n hoped that would be the end of their interruptions, but Sierra came back out and asked for opinions on her outfits every few minutes, wanting to look good for her date with Tom. 
As they were trying to focus after Sierra had interrupted them for the fourth time, y/n and Harrison both jumped when loud music started playing from behind Jace’s closed door. 
“Well, so much for working,” she grumbled, pushing the laptop mostly closed. 
Sierra walked out of her bedroom one more time in a stunning red dress, not too fancy, but still beautiful. 
“That’s the one,” y/n said to her, smiling at her friends appearance. 
“I hope you know this headache is on you,” Sierra replied annoyed, gesturing to Jace’s bedroom door on the other side of the apartment. 
“Si…”
“I’m not going to say any more. Just fix it before his ear drums rupture. Please.”
Y/n just nodded her head, trying to avoid Harrison’s gaze. 
Sierra disappeared into her bedroom again, starting to do her hair and makeup. Her plans with Tom were hours away, but the girl could spend days trying to get her appearance just right. 
“So… I know you told me not to worry about it the other night, but seriously, what is going on with you and Jace?”
Y/n let out a frustrated groan, collapsing back into the couch. 
“If you don’t want to talk about it, you don’t have to, but I mean, you’ve got me so curious.”
“It’s dumb, really, he’s just mad about something that happened a few months ago. It’s a long story, but we just started talking again recently, thanks to Sierra’s meddling, but somehow it’s my job to make everything better, even though he was the one who got us into this mess, and I’m sorry, I’m rambling.”
“No, it’s fine.”
“But I will talk to him about it eventually. And I am really so sorry that you have to witness all of this.”
“It’s fine,” he reassured her nonchalantly. She breathed a sigh of relief as he grabbed her computer to pick up on the last picture they had left off on. She had successfully danced her way around the full story, something she was getting too good at. 
After another hour of looking at pictures, Harrison mentioned that he had another class to get to. 
“You should have told me sooner, I could have made you something to eat before you left. “
“What are you, my grandmother?”
“Growing boys need to eat,” she joked back in a croaky old voice. 
They both laughed as he grabbed his bag and headed for the door.
She didn’t really want him to go. He was good company, something that was hard for her to find. She was excited to be working with him on this project, glad that they were becoming better friends. 
Once Harrison left, y/n headed into Sierra’s bathroom to keep her company while she curled her hair. 
“So…”
“Don’t, Si.”
“I have to. Are you guys a thing?”
“No, we are not a thing. Why do you have to ask that every time a boy does so much as breathe in my direction?”
“That’s not why I’m asking. I saw you laughing when we came in. I… Well I don’t think I have ever seen you smile like that.”
“What do you mean? Of course you have. I smile all the time.”
“Yeah, but not like that. Well, I guess, when you won that contest in the first month we were hanging out you were just as happy. What was that for again?”
“It was just a photo contest.”
“Well, yeah, when you got the framed picture and the $100 check, I had never seen you that happy. And I haven’t seen you act like that since. So, as much as I love Jace, I am officially switching sides. I’m shipping you and Harrison. And you can’t do anything to change my mind.” 
Sierra was picked up by Tom around 5:30. She had probably asked y/n 100 times if she looked ok, each time getting a “You look just as amazing as you did five minutes ago.”
After Sierra left, y/n decided that it was time to try to talk to Jace, mostly so Sierra would stop bringing it up. 
She knocked on his door, but the music playing inside was too loud. She tried again, louder this time, but he still didn’t answer. She couldn’t tell if he was ignoring her on purpose or not, but she opened the door anyway. 
She was met with the sight of Jace lying down on his back in bed, eyes wide open and staring at the ceiling. One of his hands rested on his chest, the other hung off the side of the bed. He didn’t notice as she entered slowly. She made her way over the record player on his desk and turned the volume dial, bringing the level down so she could speak. 
Jace looked up at her as the music faded, but looked back up at the ceiling once he saw who it was.
“I was wrong,” she said reluctantly, avoiding eye contact with him. 
“About what?” he sighed.
“I shouldn’t have asked you not to talk about it.”
“No, it’s fine, we don’t…”
“No, Jace, I… We can’t keep doing this. So say what you need to say. Yell at me, scream if you have to, but we need to get it all out so we don’t keep going between ok and you hating me.”
“I never hated you,” he stated sadly, sitting up to look at her. 
“You don’t have to lie for my sake, Jace. I fucked up and I hurt you, it’s ok to hate me.”
“Peach…” he trailed off, not knowing how to react to her. He had seen her at some of her lowest points, but through it all he knew her as strong and relentless. But looking at her now, she seemed weak, and it hurt to look at. 
 He scooted over and patted the space next to him on the bed. She didn’t hesitate before taking it. They sat in silence for a moment, neither one knowing what else needed to be said.
“I could never hate you.”
“Jace, I’m not dumb. The way you look at me now, it’s like I’m the last person you would ever want to be around. And I mean, I get why. I just can’t keep going in circles.”
“Y/n, I don’t hate you. I just…”
“Just what, Jace?”
“I feel the exact same way that I did 2 months ago. But that’s my problem, not yours.”
She felt terrible. Here they were again, him telling her how he felt, and her unable to reciprocate. Sure she loved him, and she wanted to love him in the way he loved her. But she just couldn’t and it made her feel so incredibly guilty. But she refused to make the same mistake she did last time. 
“I’m sorry, Jace.”
“What would you have to be sorry about?”
“I didn’t exactly react in the best way.”
“You can say that again.”
She smiled and softly hit his shoulder. 
“I shouldn’t have yelled at you. I just panicked.”
“I don’t get why. You could have just said you didn’t like me back. I understand that. I was kind of expecting it.”
“I know, I should have.” 
“So why didn’t you?”
She stared down at the carpet for a minute, trying to come up with the proper response. Deep down she knew why she did what she did. But that wasn’t something she could talk about now. Not yet.
“You know what, actually just forget about it. I ordered some take out, should get here soon. I got you your favorite, so let’s just…”
“Jace…”
“If you don’t want to talk about it, don’t do it for my sake. I’ll suck it up.”
He couldn’t bear looking at her anymore. He had only seen her in such an emotional state when he would find her after she had nightmares. She always looked so distraught and it broke his heart every single time. He couldn’t sit there and be the reason for his pain. 
So he walked out of the room, leaving her sitting on his bed staring after him. 
The music was still faintly playing from his speakers, so y/n made her way over to shut it off before she slowly followed him out. She watched him quietly make his way over to the couch, but before he could sit down, she rushed over and wrapped him up in a tight hug. 
He was startled at first, hesitating to return the embrace. But he turned in her arms so he was able to wrap his around her. He knew that was her way of simultaneously apologizing and thanking him. Apologizing for being such a mess, but thanking him for doing his best to deal with her. 
And that was all he could ask for from her in that moment. It was what he has hoped for when he had initially confessed to her. So he was content with it now. 
The silence continued for the rest of the night. When their take-out came, they ate right next to each other, the only noise in the apartment was the movie playing in front of them. It was the most quality alone time they had spent since the incident, and they were just happy that the silence was no longer heavy. It was no longer filled with guilt or regret, it was just a silence. 
Sierra came home late to see y/n fast asleep on Jace’s shoulder, who was sitting on the couch watching a documentary through droopy eyelids. 
“I see you two are getting along for once,” she whispered, catching Jace’s attention. 
“Shut up.”
“Did you two finally talk about it?”
“Sure.”
“That doesn’t give me confidence that I’m not going to have to deal with this same shit in a week.”
“We’re fine now, Si. How was your date?”
“Amazing,” she smiled.

I saw your post about the Paladins using Allura's powers to get a wi-fi signal and all I can think of is Lance making a team Instagram account so they can post memes from space/show their families that they are still alive. First one is "I Lived Bitch" ft. Shiro. Next is a vid of the crew dancing/singing an Acapella version of Why You Always Lying with the vid titled "@The Garrison". They make a Youtube channel to answer questions. Lance's family asks the most. They stream their battles.
This is such an amazing concept and Ican definitely imagine this happening (after several tear-filled skype callswith their families) and I hope you don’t mind me adding some of my own headcanons to this…
Lanceresponds to any and all rude/mean comments with “why don’t you come uphere and say that to my face”
Pidgehas started referring to the day they return to Earth as “the day Lancegets punched 693 times” (she keeps a running total)
Hunkstarts uploading instructional cooking videos all about how to make Earthenfood with alien ingredients. They all include detailed recipes and instructions
They’rethe opposite of relatable, but he develops a big following
Lanceand Pidge try and catch up on all the new memes but Earth culture moves sofast and they’ve been gone for almost a year
Lance,googling “know your meme”: so this is what it feels like to be oldand out of touch
Some of the space memes include
Keithtrying to find a Mothman planet
Alteais the real space Australia
Trying out things they saw in youtube prank videos on the Galra
Making ‘Global Shop Direct’ style ads for the food goo
“Look at the robot Pidge made out of *ridiculously small list of items*” *picture that is definitely not a robot*
Lancetries to take aesthetic farm photos of Kaltenecker the cow
“Youdo know that udders means it’s a girl cow right?”
Lance does, but he’s a trans boy and you can pry his trans bull best friend out ofhis cold dead hands
There’sa community of ‘spacehoaxers’ who think that the Instagram is a fake
Thegang gets into a competition to see who can upload a video that the spacehoaxerscan’t explain away
Theyhave yet to be successful
Keithand Pidge beg Shiro to let them go back to the space mall and interview thealien with the Earth shop for a video
ColleenHolt makes an Instagram account so she can follow the team
Shehas no idea how Instagram works
Butshe always likes their posts and tags them in things
Theyall love it

Make me pt. 3 (hey that rhymed)
Pt 1 and 2
I MADE A FLUFF PLAYLIST HERE (vvv soft grunge and ALOT of Lana Del Rey) I SUGGEST LISTENING TO IT WHILE YOU READ BUT YA KNOW.
Go away” Fluff said groggily as I raised the curtains, I was in the best place ever. I hadn’t cut or drank in months and I was roomed with the literal love of my life. “Sorry princess but our psychology class is in 30 minutes.” (All of the losers majored in psychology and were going to run a therapy/criminal/ what ever you can do with psychology office) “Do I haveeee toooooo?” Fluff said burying herself under the covers. “Yeah, unfortunately. I meannn unless you wanna miss your midterm.” I said taking the covers off the bed “MIDTERMS ARE TODAY?!” She snapped up I couldn’t help but laugh at her state, she was alert but also a robber could brake in right now and she’d probably think it’s Stan. She was a mess but like also cute? Like how? “Yeah *snort* they are *brakes down laughing*” she glared at me “You listen here buddy. I love you.” She started out threatening but forgot what to say and gave up. “Love you too, now like seriously there in 25 minutes.” I said as I watched the udder state of panic wash over her face I knew that look and it wasn’t good ANXIETY ALERT (I’m allowed to humor this excuse me I have anxiety) shit fuck no no no you should’ve woken her up earlier. “Really?” It was clearly hard for her to breathe (she was hyperventilating) “Hey, hey your okay. It’s okay, I’m here. Your not gonna fail your gonna do amazing, we all will.” I said as I rubbed her back. “Are the others up?” She asked flustered “uh yeah, we met for coffee.” If looks could kill, I’d be a dead man “so literally EVERYONE ELSE is up and ready?” She asked “Yeah....” I said nervously “RICHARD! Ughhhhh” She said getting up and putting on a thrasher hoodie. (Insert picture here)
Tumblr media
And jeans. “Wow that was fast.” I said “I can get ready for anything in like 5 seconds” she said grabbing her backpack and skateboard. “I thought car was the mode of transportation today?” I asked “and I say that’s boring” she said while opening the door, I grabbed my board and backpack and headed towards the dorm buildings exit. “Hm hm hm hm hm hmmm hmmm hmmmmm”(spent the last two hours just tying my shoe. Yes it’s this song again okay? 👌🏼) “HMMM HMMM HMMM HM HMMMMMMM” (ITS THE BEST DAY EVER) “WHY ARE YOU HUMMING SO AGGRESSIVELY?” I asked concerned “BECAUSE ITS THE CHORUS!” She yelled from infront of me “To what?” I asked “ITS THE BESTTT DAYYY EVERRRR” she screamed the lyrics “SPENT THE LAST TWO HOURS JUST TYING MY SHOOEEE DUN DUN DUN ITS THE BESTTT DAYYY EVERRR *whisper yells* BEST DAY EVER!” “Did you just back up sing for a solo?” I asked and she just nodded and put her skateboard in her backpack (we had arrived) “Ready?” I asked grabbing her hand, she nodded in response and we walked in. “FINE A FUCKING LY” Bev yelled from across the parking lot “D-Did you guys s-skate here?” Bill asked “Well it’s more fun than cars so yeah.” Fluff said sticking her skateboard into her backpack while all of us walked into the class.
(20 minutes later)
“Ughhhhh I fucking hate midterms” Fluff muttered under her breath, she was bouncing her leg and biting her lip a lot (Fluff always has adhd and anxiety) “Hey, hey it’s okay baby your doing great!” I whispered to her and squeezed her thigh.
(Stenbrough pov cause like who can resist?)
“Fuck fuck fuck fuck shit” Stan muttered under his breath. “your d-doing great b-babe, d-don’t even w-worry about I-it” I said kissing him lightly on the cheek.
(MIDTERMS ARE FUCKING STRESSFUL AND ALL OF THE SHIPS ARE SUPPORTIVE AND NEED TO BE SHOWN THAT WAY OKAY LETS CONTINUE WITH BENVERLY)
“What the fuck do you mean what causes anxiety? Fucking anxiety causes anxiety! This is fucking stupid WHAT THE FUCK CAUSES ANXIETY?!” Bev muttered under her breath “Excuse me miss marsh, your doing great! Don’t get frustrated with yourself.” I said squeezing her hand.
(Idk the actual ship name bUT IM CALLING mike x Eddie: Meddie ITS CUTE AND I LOVE IT COME AT ME)
“Dude what the hell do you mean? What part of the brain does anxiety stem from? WHEN DID WE LEARN THIS?!” Eddie muttered under his breath and was CLEARLY frustrated “Baby, your doing great Okay? Just focus and stay calm. I love you so much.” I said before lightly pecking him on the lips.
(Back to you richie x fluff)
“What the hell? Fuck do you mean what is ocd classified as? A mental disorder but oH nOoO can’t have the obvious answer on the paper.” Richie whispered to him self cleARLY frustrated “Hey calm down babe, it’s okay. You got this in the fucking bag! Just calm down and you’ll be more than fine.” I said hugging him quickly.
(Stenbrough)
“I-I’m fucking s-sick and ti-tired of this f-f-fucking m-m-midterm! W-what the f-fuck do you m-mean what I-is the b-b-best treatment f-for anxiety?” Bill muttered angrily under his breath “Hey, Baby what did you say to me? Your doing great don’t even worry. Take your own advice!” I said squeezing his hand tightly.
(Benverly)
“Ohhhhhh myyyyy godddd fuck shit goddamn it! What? Do? You? Mean?” Ben whispered clearly annoyed with the midterm “Ben, calm down. Your gonna be alright okay? Okay?” I said before quickly pecking his cheek.
(Meddie)
“What? That didn’t even make any sense! I fucking hate you.” Mike muttered into the paper. “Hey, hey, your doing amazing! And it’s almost over okay?” I said while squeezing his thigh.
This went on for another hour at least. All of them just being little supportive beans.
(An hour - hour and a half ish)
“Thank god it’s over” Fluff mumbles into Richie’s chest while they hugged each other. “I would have never made it if it was even a second longer, truely.” Stan said “I don’t think any of us could” fluff added on. “I’m about 30 seconds from passing out.” Fluff said into my chest quitely. “W-who’s down f-for getting s-s-something to eat?” Bill asked looking around. I looked down at fluff and she just nodded. “I just don’t understand why they made midterms.” Bev said clearly still frustrated, I nodded. I looked over at fluff and her head againgst the restaurants wall and her hood was up so only if you were straight across from her then you could see her face. Stan was so graciously granted the privilege of sitting across from her. “Is she asleep?” I whispered to Stan and he nodded. “Greatttttt” She wasn’t heavy but just like having to carry a sleeping her to our room is literally tHE MOST ATTENTION ACQUIRING TASK I HAVE EVER ENCOUNTERED. All the teachers ask why I’m carrying her, students give weird looks, and to make things better, our dorm is on the 3rd floor aka the busiest floor. But good thing it’s me and not fluff, she would’ve lost her mind if she had to go through there with a sleeping person. But I on the other hand, tell the teachers and low key have a legit conversation, explain to students giving dirty looks or just give them back, depends on how I’m feeling. And the third floor is never swarming with students sOoO that’s easy. “Uh Excuse me Mr. Tozier? I’m sure that Ms. Contreeneo (I like it but that’s not how you spell it lmao it down there 👇) can walk by her self” she glared at me but in a cheerful tone I said “Well actually she fell asleep at a diner, and it’s pronounced ‘kuh-tron-eo’ Cotroneo.” I said before heading into the elevator. “We’re almost there.” I said kissing the top of her head. “Fine a fucking ly” i said while placing her on the bed. I took out an index card and black ink pen and quickly scribbled down words.
‘Babygirl, you fell asleep at the diner and I took you home. the losers club is gonna go to Derry this weekend so we’re gonna be in bills room planning. If you need me just text Okay? I love you and please don’t panic when you wake up, I’m two rooms down. I love you and please just rest.
~Rich’
“Okay lets go.” I whispered to myself while closing the door.
(Fluff)
“Oh little fluff what a shame would it be for Richie to find out why Fluffs like this? Because of anxiety.” (First of all if you’ve read shhh don’t tell Richie I love you ps. If you haven’t your fine, but every story with fluff is in the same universe)
“Eds, why why is it me? Why is he saying those things!?”
“RICHIE? RICH!”
“Your just a pathetic excuse of a human being”
“F-Fuck” i woke up in the middle of an anxiety attack “shit.” I got up and headed for my inhaler. I got it and took a few breaths before calming down. I walked back over towards our bed and saw a note.
‘Babygirl, you fell asleep at the diner and I took you home. the losers club is gonna go to Derry this weekend so we’re gonna be in bills room planning. If you need me just text Okay? I love you and please don’t panic when you wake up, I’m two rooms down. I love you and please just rest.’
~Rich
“D-Derry? Like Maine? Why would they wanna go back if for years they wished nothing but to leave? Me and Eddie almost got killed, Richie tried to kill him self. This was the first year bill could look at a yellow raincoat and a paper boat without braking down. Why would they wanna go back? Those were the worst 18 years of my life. Who would we stay with? All of us left Derry BECAUSE of our abusive parents.” I was pacing back and forth. No fluff. Your not having an anxiety attack twice in the last ten minutes. I sat down “your not a damsel in distress. You don’t need richie right now. Fuck yeah you do.”
(You = rich)
Babygirl💖: Hey Rich can you come back?
You: I’m almost done
Babygirl💖: like how much longer?
You: like 45 minutes, why?
Babygirl💖: no it’s fine, you don’t have to worry.
You: You’re lying, tell me what’s going on?
Babygirl💖: I’m having an anxiety attack
You: babe why didn’t you tell me sooner?
Babygirl💖: I’m not sure
You: I’m coming right now
(Richie)
“Hey guys I gotta go.” I said grabbing my bag. “Why?” Bev asked “Fluffs having an anxiety attack.” I mouthed so only she could see. “Let me help.” She insisted “I don’t think that’s a good idea.” The others caught on “Babe I understand your superhero tendencies make you wanna help fluff but I think it’s best if her boyfriend goes, don’t ya think?” Ben said “I’ll see you guys.” I said as I quickly walked out of the door. Fuck fuck fuck I thought and then I was there in my room and Fluff was pacing. I closed the door and immediately ran over to just hug her “Baby why didn’t you tell me?” I asked hugging her “Ihadadreamaboutusandpennywiseandthathorriblehouseandeverythingandthenireadyournoteand-andthoughtabouteverything-andhowyout-tried-andallofourparentsand-and-“ I cut her off by crashing our lips together. “Hey, hey, it’s okay. I’m here babygirl, nothing is gonna happen to you okay? I have everything figured out, we’re gonna stay in a hotel and literally the only places we’re going are the quarry and arcade.” I said in an attempt to calm her down, for the most part it was just me being there that calmed her down. Ever since penny wise outed her for her anxiety, every anxiety attack she came to me even before we were dating. We fell asleep just cuddling and hugging.
THISSS ISSSS TRASHHHHHH IM SORRY lmao next part is traveling to Maine 🌻

So this week Ganesh came in a vengence wrapped on a truck – he eventually gets dunked in the water  – think a butt load of useless trash
Chutchskees that go with the Ganesh festival are sold by villgers on the side of the road – totally inventive wrapping – old candy wrappers – I got a horn made out of a funnel, peice of tube and a birthday blower – only 10rps.  Even a soap stone shiva caught my eye! (better than the ever present orange blob idol)
So we finally moved to the University Campus – it is monstrous!! The fact that I have been living and working in a hotel is beside the point – now we are working 16kms out of Ujjain –  in the middle of farms and villages ….. eeek – Note the red circle on the left building that is a guy hanging from a rope that is held by another man with the rope around his waist. He is sitting on a plank of wood that is swinging precariously 8 + stories above the ground  – hmmm sounds like my work life in India, except his job has a bit of physical danger.
I have a scooter and she is my best friend! We go to work everyday  – FREEDOM!! eeeeek cows, kids, and plaster arches everywhere!!
Uper  – Holiday time again in India and it was off to a hill town – Mussoorie. A bit of trash fills the street with the town backdrop and a shop with sewing trash. I actually loved this mans shop!
Packing up after a days work this cart looks great under the light and the stuffed animals at my amazing hotel – Kashmanda Palace – a renovated convent filled with fake Raj images and real Taxidermy animals.
I can never pass up the opportunity to photograph drying laundry at a tourist place.  That is 100% Indian, the laundry blocked the view and the fountain didn’t work. But never fear if you feel sick or hurt yourself because right up the street I want you to   please note the test tubes and petri dishes in the Doctors front window!
And I am back on the bad job binge – the guy on the left is capable of putting a washing machine on is back, using his head to hold the load – I only saw a few workers with several bags of cement and piles of potatoes. The girl on the right lives upstairs with her father, think attic area. hShe supports her family by selling junk food and sewing while her brother goes to the local convent school – very good education, and her other brother died while she had the worst gash across her nose I have seen in a while. I pounded past her shop 3 days in a row  – my morning walk on the way to eat very average coissants up the hill.
Look hard on the left, that fat toad lying on something was throwing trash out his window onto the street – gotta love the juxtaposition to the woman on the banner with  diamonds underneath. A few more drying clothes in the highlands – just saying the view of the Himalayas was amazing!!
GRIDS
And then it was back to work – the Chai shop on the corner to the university. and a mechanic hard at work in the mountains.
Uper & udder So this week Ganesh came in a vengence wrapped on a truck - he eventually gets dunked in the water  - think a butt load of useless trash…

By Dr Rosemary Leonard 00:00 BST 09 Oct 1993, updated 09:09 BST 24 Apr 2002 Facebook Twitter e-mail SMS WhatsApp 0 comments In allergic rhinitis, the lining of the nose becomes inflamed in response to breathing in certain substances, known as allergens. Often, as in your case, the throat is affected too. The most common allergens to cause rhinitis are pollens, which lead to the classic symptoms of hayfever in spring and early summer. Some unlucky people, though, like you, get rhinitis all the year round - a condition known as perennial rhinitis. The most common allergens that provoke perennial rhinitis are house dust mites, animal fur, feathers and mould spores (which, incidentally, are the also the most common causes of asthma). Skin prick testing can help to identify the worst culprits, so ask your doctor if this could be arranged for you. Meanwhile, replace pillows and duvets that contain feathers with ones filled with polyester, cover your mattress with a special anti-allergic cover, and don't let furry animals in your bedroom, or any rooms where there are soft furnishings. The best treatments for allergic rhinitis are steroid nasal sprays, such as Beconase or Flixonase, which help prevent the allergic response responsible for the inflammation. They must be used regularly, every day, for best effect, and you may have to continue with treatment for years. Anti-histamine tablets can help too - it's worth trying different brands to find which ones suits you best, then get a large supply on prescription from your GP. The most specific treatment for allergic rhinitis is immunotherapy. This involves repeated injections of a tiny amount of allergen, with the aim of desensitising your immune system. This type of treatment is only carried out in specialist clinics, as it can cause a sudden, severe allergic reaction. However, if your symptoms are severe, it would be worthwhile asking your GP for a referral.

I Dreamed of Tales and Tales I Dreamed
I was holding a handful of quail egg sized creatures, and I wonder what they are.. 
They resemble baby white-colored mice with flat-rounded noses and smooth hairless skin.
Then, a girl told me, that's what piglets look like..
I was shock? Really? Where's their mother? And is it possible for it to bear this many? I tried counting them... 20's..., 30's..
I'm becoming really careful.. Some are dropping.. They are just plentiful.
Then from the bunch, I saw a tinier one, the tiniest one, rather, a struggling  black one.. 
And then I whispered, "good for you little fellow, you made it! I'm so proud of you."
I was just so amazed and puzzled of the creatures I lost track that they have a mother that looks up after them. The girl tapped my shoulder and pointed a big beast.. I tried to pat its head to let it know I mean no harm. She lay down and the babies came reaching for its udders.. 
I looked for the tiniest one and assist it to find a good spot..
What a nice scene to watch..
I stepped away and just gazed at them for a while.. I left my stare after a few minutes or so.. And then the mother pig was gone too, and the sleeping piglets were left..
I looked for her.. 
And I saw her in a bit,. I was about to reach again for her head but all of a sudden, it seemed she did not recognized me anymore.. 
She was going to attack me.. 
...attack me...
She was following her instincts protecting its youngs..
I was shocked..
Luckily there's a banked barrier and I leaped for it.. The mother pig tried to attack me aggressively, it's head pooped at the top of the barrier as soon as I caught my ground to the other side.
I was sad... Why should it be that way???.. I mean no harm.. I just want to be with them, with its piglets..
But the aggressive mother made its point..
And I just left..
I went home..
Same old, same old.. I don't give much of attention to the place... The long corridor, the living room..
*puff *whatever
I hate it... I wish not to mind it...
I was about to get straight into my room when......
Out of nowhere, a woman my age appeared..
She was brown skinned, brown, but her complexion really glows. Her black, long, luminous hair was perfectly braided, one on each side of her neck and a face with a perfect geometry..
We made an instant eye contact.. She has a beautiful strong big rounded fearsome eyes. Her lips, I believe resembles mine. My father, who happened to be there was watching the television, was curious for who she is...
There's no time..
I grabbed her hand and headed outside again..
I told my father......
"She's my.... friend..."
And *poof, I did not wait for his response, we are gone.
I know she was an Indian woman.. She has a dagger with her.. I don't want to make a fuss and remained calmed..
When we where out, she told me.. "You know us Indian girls, we kill the people we intend to kill right away." I nodded, "I know. It's okay. Let's go." 
And I gave her a smile..
I grabbed her hand again and walked passed our lawn, our garden.. 
We walked way passed our back gate, still, not letting go of her hand..
There was an on going construction of a mini market being held.. It's kinda dusty.. It's humid.. I can feel the sun touching, kissing and penetrating my skin.. There's a powerful glare in my eyes..
It's too bright..
Then I look at the site  and saw 3 dogs..
Each of them where chained up on different spots.. The 2 were very ecstatic to see me.. wagging their tails out of excitement..The other dog, on the contrary, was lying by its side.. weak.. It's too thin it can barely move.. It's an alive skeleton dog wrapped in a brown spotted skin..
It's just waiting to... die..
I wish not to mind them.. Why should I? I can't have soft spots for everything.. I must not.. It's life.. I can't give it pity, for it will surely affect me deeply.. I must not..
Why should I? And besides, I'm with a girl, I'm holding her hands.. We are definitely will be heading somewhere.. I am curious of what we are about to do and talk about.....
But then again.........
I went for a second look, I don’t know, for no reason at all..
The gloomy dog looked straight at me..
It was a familiar stare.. 
It's like trying to say something at me.. 
I don’t know what it was... Its stare is confusing me..
Then... *boom, we had an instant connection..
And I still wonder what it is..
It was still looking at me..
This  dog is not looking to be fed up, it was just....... 
........wait what?!
...How long has it been???!!!
I cried!...
Tears were rushing down my cheeks..
What have I become?!
The dog was just trying to say...
..."Hi. It's good to see you back... ...master."
"I love you. I miss you. How have you been? I was so worried about you. I wish not to look like this, but you see, I still did. I am not mad at you. I am just glad that you came back."
I can't compose myself any longer.. 
I was trembling, shaking...
I did not answered back..
I run away..
And the girl with me said, "Hey, where are we going? What's the rush?" 
In my head, "Shut up. food, let's find food. Water! Water! It must be too thirsty!!! There's no time to waste. How long has it been?! When did I started to forget. Why?! Why?!"
"Can I still make it? Hurry.. There's no time to waste. It's waiting for me.... It is..... "
“Please...... Don't die........ just yet.... don't die on me...."
I was trembling, shaking...
And then, I woke up..

March-The Time of Awakening 3
March-- The time of awakening part three:
A positive precursor to spring for me is the return of our fox, she leaves us in late autumn to meet up with her partner, after her winter dalliance she returns  in early march to the den just beyond our boundary, on warm spring days she curls up on our lawn or watches the world go by lying on the shed roof (we have allowed the hedge to grow over giving her a comfy bed up there but more from her in the summer) she is very much my totem animal both in the mundane and astral realms, with her sharp hearing, eyesight and sense of smell she is both a guide and teacher for the traditional witch showing just how to be focused and driven for in the Brythonic tribes the fox was honoured for its wisdom and relied upon as a trusted guide within the spirit realm! So some meditative time with the spirit of the fox may just amaze you at the depth of insight this most regal of creatures has to offer you.  Out in the fields our native brown hare (we know it’s been in these islands for over 4000 years) may be sighted more and more frequently another animal that bodes no ill to us! as it has many of our country neighbours down the centuries, in part this can be seen as their being maligned by the church, associated with madness calling them animals of ill omen, the dancing hares at night were said to be covens of witches dancing and these shape-shifting witches in the form of hares were said to cause women to miscarry or give birth defects to their children ‘hare lip’ and dry up the udders of cows, much of it also stems from the inability of farmers to control their numbers for they certainly know how to trim a crop! Now back to business our Brythonic ancestors rarely hunted and killed the hare for food as it was looked upon as a holy creature for many of their deities were associated with and depicted holding them in their hands, with the killing and eating such a taboo that the result of breaking this would result in the perpetrator being struck with cowardice. This restriction was lifted once a year allowing the hare to be ritually hunted and consumed at Beltane, the Anglo Saxons also venerated the hare allowing a ritual hunt as a feature of the Spring festival in honour of the goddess Eostre, who is often depicted as hare-headed for her hare will have laid the egg of new life heralding the rebirth of the year. (We still have Easter bunnies distributing eggs in springtime).
You see I’ve wandered off again!
Anyway the arrival of these islands oppressors in the 11th century and the draconian laws they introduced changed the concept of animals of the hunt they place almost every living thing under the ownership of the King with the penalties being very severe for those caught hunting (the royal forests included fields and open ground), the hare became venery  
from the old French venerie, and any flesh from these beasts of the chase (hare, bear, wild boar, wolf and deer) were known as venison.
If we look at our old friend Geoffrey Chaucer. His monk in the Canterbury tales describes himself as an ‘outrider that loved venery’ by which he meant he loved hunting, through Chaucer’s tales are so bawdy that incautious readers may just assume he has another meaning!
Back to the hare with their long bat like ears being part of their early warning system they are capable of picking up the slightest sound, along with a pair of eyes set to the side of their head they can truly look backwards, there is nothing that can take the hare by surprise (only if damaged by ill health or as with us all age!) Now the common sight of ‘boxing hares’ more often than not this is the female letting the male know that she is just not interested and I’m sure she packs a punch!
I should really start to wind this up, it is however clear that in cultures all over the world from ancient times to the present day that the hare is a symbol of enlightenment, not only spiritually but also very much seen as the dawn of the year in this part of the cycle of the wheel that we call spring.
Look closely in your garden, in the fields and hedgerows for you will see those of the animal world out and about busily looking for suitable breeding places and food supplies.
