The Pill

You stand in front of the mirror, running your fingers absently down the front of your shirt, still tasting the creamy garlic sauce clinging to your tongue from dinner. You’d eaten more than you meant to—again—but your husband had cooked your favorite. How could you resist?

Your stomach feels a little heavy, but nothing unusual. You sigh, rubbing the slight bloat with one hand. The house is quiet. Your reflection stares back at you, familiar, unchanged—until something shifts.

A flicker of warmth blooms in your belly. Subtle at first, like a blush deep under the skin, then spreading fast—hotter, heavier. You blink. Is the room warmer?

Then your shirt twitches.

You freeze.

It’s nothing dramatic, just a soft, slow stretching across your middle. You frown, watching as the fabric that had moments ago hung loosely now clings ever so slightly tighter. Another heartbeat. Then tighter still. You press your hand to your belly and find it—rounder. Firmer. Swelling beneath your touch.

“What the hell…” you whisper, barely breathing.

It doesn’t stop.

Your belly pushes outward in real time, the pressure building as if someone’s slowly inflating you from the inside. You watch in horror as a soft roll forms just beneath your waistband, spilling over it with each passing second. You feel your jeans biting into you—really biting now—your thighs swelling against the denim like overfilled dough.

You stumble back a step, clutching your stomach with both hands. It’s warm. Soft. Heavier than it was even moments ago.

A terrible realization begins to form. Something’s wrong. Something’s happening to you.

And then your eyes widen.

Your arms.

They’re thickening too, puffing slightly with a layer of soft new weight. You raise them and feel the fabric of your sleeves tug uncomfortably against your growing biceps. Your upper arms jiggle with the movement���they never used to jiggle.

You suck in a shaky breath, only to feel your chest press forward, filling your bra more than it had all day. You gasp, watching your reflection as your breasts swell with the rest of you, your neckline dipping lower, roundness threatening to spill over.

Your stomach lets out a loud, wet glorp, and suddenly your waistband gives way with a sharp snap. The top button of your jeans launches across the room, and your belly surges forward into the open space. Round. Soft. Heavy.

“Oh god—” you whisper, hands trembling as you try to cup the bulge, but it’s no use. There’s too much of you now. Your belly is growing faster by the second, overfilling your hands, drooping downward, wobbling with weight it didn’t have just minutes ago.

You grab your shirt, trying to tug it down, but it won’t stretch far enough anymore. It’s halfway up your stomach now, clinging like plastic wrap around your expanding torso. Your hips flare wider, thighs ballooning beneath you, and the seams along your jeans cry out—stressed, breaking.

You can barely think. Your breathing is shallow. Panicked. Your cheeks feel hot—no, not just from fear. They’re… fuller. Rounder. You see it now in the mirror: your jawline softening, a second chin beginning to bloom as your face catches up with the rest of you.

“Please,” you breathe, not even sure who you’re pleading with. Yourself? The mirror? Him?

Your husband.

He cooked dinner tonight.

You gasp again, clutching the wall for balance as another wave hits. It’s like your entire body is pulsing, every beat of your heart pushing more fat onto your frame. Your thighs rub now with every shifting step, denim stretched nearly to splitting. Your belly jiggles with every tiny movement, heavy and pendulous, the lower curve resting against the tops of your thighs.

You feel helpless—trapped in your own skin as it continues to grow. The magic pill he must have slipped you… it’s still working.

You meet your own eyes in the mirror, wild and wide with disbelief.

You’re huge. You’re getting huge. Right before your eyes. Right before his.

And somehow—beneath the panic, the shock, the embarrassment—

You feel something else stirring.

Something you don’t want to name yet.

Something that’s growing just as fast as the rest of you.

You’re still staring at yourself, paralyzed, panting lightly as your overworked clothes cling for dear life. Your belly has ballooned into something obscene, rounded and soft and bouncing faintly with your breath. Your legs feel like overstuffed sausages in denim, your thighs touching in places they never used to. Everything feels foreign—alien and overfull and yours.

You’re so wrapped up in the surreal sight of yourself swelling that you don’t even hear him at first.

Then:

“Oh, wow…”

You whip your head around—too fast. Your face wobbles. Your chin brushes the soft swell of a new double beneath it.

He’s standing in the doorway. Watching.

Your husband.

There’s something in his eyes. Not fear. Not concern. Something warmer. Darker. Almost—proud.

“You—you did this,” you stammer, pointing at your distended stomach. Your voice cracks, half in disbelief, half in fury. “You put something in my food, didn’t you? What the hell is happening to me?”

He doesn’t deny it. He walks slowly toward you instead, calm, composed, like he’s admiring a painting in motion.

“It worked faster than I thought,” he says softly, eyes roaming your rapidly expanding form. “I thought it’d be gradual. But this…” He pauses, gaze settling on the rounded shelf of your belly. “This is incredible.”

You stagger back a step, belly sloshing with the motion, face burning. “I’m huge!” you shout, voice almost shrill. “I don’t even recognize myself!”

You try to tug your shirt back down, but it won’t budge—it’s practically painted onto your bloated form, the hem now hovering far above your navel. Your jeans dig in painfully at the thighs and hips, the zipper holding on by some small miracle.

“I know,” he says, stepping closer. “Look at you. You’re… breathtaking.”

“You drugged me!”

“I helped you,” he replies, voice gentle but firm. “You never let yourself go. You were always worried about control, about calories. I just gave you a little… push.”

Another wave of heat rolls through your body. You groan, clutching your belly as it lurches outward again, visibly rounder even in the space of seconds. Your thighs press tighter, your stance forced wider. A seam at the side of your jeans splits with a loud rrrrip.

He watches it happen. You see his throat bob as he swallows.

You whimper—truly whimper—backing toward the mirror again. You can’t escape it. You’re in it. Becoming it.

“What’s happening to me…” you whisper, voice cracking. Your legs are trembling under the added weight. “I’m still growing. It won’t stop.”

He’s close now, almost within reach. You feel him before you see him—his hands, warm and steady, gently cradling the underside of your belly. Holding the weight you can barely support.

“Twenty minutes,” he murmurs. “That’s all the pill needed. Just twenty minutes to show you who you really are.”

You shudder in his grip. The touch sends something through you—humiliation, horror, heat. You try to pull away, but your body’s too slow now, too heavy.

“I—I can’t walk right,” you mutter, tears stinging your eyes. “I can’t breathe in these clothes.”

“I know,” he whispers, voice laced with something deeper. “You’ll need new ones. Much, much bigger ones.”

You whimper again, helpless, heavy, bursting at the seams.

And when he leans in—presses a kiss to your swollen cheek—you realize he’s not going to stop this.

And deep down, a part of you doesn’t want him to.

His lips leave your cheek, warm and lingering, and you feel your breath hitch in your throat. You’re still growing—barely, now, but enough that the waistband of your jeans feels like a noose around your hips. You shift your weight and wince at the pressure digging into your belly, your thighs straining against the confining denim. Another seam gives out with a sharp rip down the side.

Your hands flutter uselessly at your sides.

“I can’t even get out of these,” you whisper, shame burning behind your eyes. “I’m stuck.”

“Then let me help you,” he says softly.

You should resist. Scream. Demand answers. But you don’t. You stand there, flushed and trembling, as he sinks to his knees in front of you and gently brings his hands to your thighs. His fingers move with surprising reverence, like he’s afraid you’ll vanish if he handles you too roughly. Which is ridiculous—there’s nothing small about you anymore.

He traces the torn denim with his fingertips before gripping the zipper, now warped and strained. A quick tug and it gives way, bursting open like a dam. Your belly surges forward with a sigh of relief, freed at last. The button’s long gone, but now even the fly peels open, baring the lower swell of your stomach and the beginnings of your overgrown underwear.

“God,” he breathes, more to himself than you. “Look at this belly.”

You close your eyes in shame. But you don’t stop him.

He works the jeans down, inch by inch. It’s not easy. Your thighs resist, soft and heavy, and your calves protest as the fabric peels away. You lift one foot, then the other, wobbling unsteadily as your balance shifts with the movement of your bulk. He steadies you without a word, hands always warm, always firm.

When the jeans are finally off, you hear him exhale softly. You’re left in stretched, overworked underwear—your panties nearly buried between your thighs, waistband folded beneath the curve of your belly, everything riding far too low to be comfortable.

Your shirt is next. You hesitate, instinctively tugging at the hem, but it barely covers your ribs anymore. You glance down at your arms—plumper than ever, dimples and softness in places that used to be firm—and then up at him. He just nods, gently lifting the hem.

The fabric sticks slightly around your chest, now heavier, fuller, pushing out in ways that strain your bra. But he’s patient, guiding it upward over your body, baring inch after inch of pale, soft skin until finally the shirt comes free over your head. He tosses it aside, and there you stand—barely clothed, more exposed than you’ve ever been in front of him, and easily twice the size you were just twenty minutes ago.

You’re panting softly, your hands fluttering over your middle, your hips, your chest, like you can’t decide where to hide. But there’s too much of you now. No matter what you cover, more spills out.

“Come here,” he says gently, stepping back and offering his hand.

You shake your head. “I don’t think I can… move. Not well. I feel so… heavy.”

He only smiles. “Then we’ll go slow.”

It takes effort. Every step is a shuffle. Your thighs rub. Your belly wobbles. Your center of gravity is so different that each movement feels like a negotiation with your own body. But he stays close, one hand at your lower back, the other sometimes guiding under your belly to help you forward, always steady.

He leads you to the bedroom.

The bed looks smaller than usual—or maybe you make it look that way now. You ease yourself down with his help, gasping slightly as your belly pools across your lap, thighs spreading wide. You can’t sit quite the same anymore. You’re bigger in every direction.

And you feel his eyes on you the entire time. Not with judgment.

But with awe.

He steps away for a moment—then returns, holding a digital scale.

“No,” you whisper, shaking your head. “I’m not ready—please—”

But he kneels beside you, brushing your cheek with his fingers. “Just once. So we know. Then I’ll take care of you. I promise.”

You hesitate. Swallow. Nod.

Getting up is awkward. He helps. Every wobble, every jiggle is met with quiet admiration. When you finally step onto the scale, your belly hanging slightly, breasts resting on its upper swell, you hold your breath.

The number appears.

And it’s massive.

You gasp.

He exhales, his hand wrapping gently around your side.

“You’re perfect,” he whispers, voice low and reverent. “And this is just the beginning.”

You stare at the number on the scale, your breath shallow, your mind racing. It can’t be real. It can’t be.

But the number glows back at you, undeniable.

You’ve gained over fifty kilos in twenty minutes.

You cover your mouth with both hands, a soft moan escaping—part horror, part awe, part something deeper, darker, harder to name. Your belly trembles slightly as you stand there, wobbling under your own new weight, skin flushed, thighs pressed tight together.

He’s still kneeling beside you, hands at your hips, anchoring you in place.

“You’re shaking,” he murmurs, gently rising to his feet. “Come. Let’s get you off your feet.”

He guides you back toward the bed, slow and steady, his hands never leaving your skin. You’re starting to feel it now—not just the mass, but the effort of carrying it. Your legs are unsteady, your back aches faintly from the pull of your belly. When you reach the edge of the mattress, you nearly collapse onto it, the springs groaning beneath your added heft.

You lean back on your elbows, breathing heavily. Your belly spreads across your lap like soft dough, your breasts resting on top of it now, their weight undeniable.

“I can’t believe this,” you whisper. “I can’t believe how big I am.”

“I can,” he says simply.

You meet his gaze. There’s no shame in his expression. Just admiration. Hunger. Devotion.

He kneels again, now between your spread thighs. His hands glide over your knees, which now touch when pressed together. He helps you shift further back onto the mattress, then gently nudges your legs open. You let him. You’re too tired to fight it, and too curious to stop.

The way he looks at you…

It’s not just lust.

It’s reverence.

He crawls onto the bed with you, leaning forward, placing a slow, deliberate kiss on the underside of your belly.

“You don’t know how long I’ve wanted to see you like this,” he murmurs against your skin, voice muffled by soft flesh. “Full. Heavy. Glowing.”

“I—I didn’t ask for this,” you protest weakly, but even to your own ears it sounds like you’re grasping. Your body is trembling, but not from fear. His lips move lower, trailing kisses across your stretched skin, hands cupping your hips with care.

“You didn’t have to,” he whispers. “You just needed help letting go.”

You let out a shaky breath. He’s undoing your stretched underwear now, easing it down your hips, over your thighs—moving carefully, slowly, like undressing a precious gift. He kisses your inner thighs, marveling at how plush they’ve become.

“Look at you,” he says softly. “There’s so much more of you now.”

You’re blushing furiously, but you don’t stop him. Your hands drift to your belly, lifting the soft mound slightly just to feel its weight, then letting it fall again. It jiggles. Sloshes faintly. It’s real.

You’re real.

And so much bigger than you were.

Time slips by in a haze.

You don’t know how long you lie there afterward—sprawled across the mattress, your swollen, overstretched body sinking into the sheets, your skin slick with warmth, tingling everywhere he touched. He lies beside you, one arm curled around your waist—what part of it he can reach, anyway—and the other hand gently stroking the underside of your belly, as if still marveling at the size of it.

You breathe slowly. Shallowly. You have to. There’s so much of you now that even lying still feels like work.

You’re naked, exhausted, sticky—and starving.

Your belly lets out a low, insistent grumble.

He chuckles softly beside you. “That didn’t take long.”

“I shouldn’t be hungry,” you mumble. “It hasn’t even been an hour…”

“You burned a lot of energy,” he says, brushing your hair from your cheek. “Your body’s working overtime. Growing like that… it takes fuel.”

You close your eyes. Part of you wants to resist. The other part?

You gave up that fight the second your jeans burst open.

After a few minutes, you make a soft sound and try to sit up. It’s difficult. You feel heavy in ways you never have before—your belly drapes over your lap, breasts wobbling with the effort, thighs too close together to shift easily. You grunt softly, struggling.

“Here,” he says immediately, rising to help you. His hands slide under your arms, lifting with care as you grunt your way upright. Even that little motion leaves you panting. You’re sore, inside and out.

Your old clothes are hopeless. What’s left of your jeans lies in a tattered heap on the floor, your bra stretched out beyond saving. Even your underwear seems to have lost all elasticity.

He disappears for a moment into the closet.

When he returns, he’s holding a shirt—one of his. The biggest one he owns. It used to hang off him like a curtain.

Now, it might barely cover you.

You hesitate, reaching for it. He slips it over your shoulders instead, pulling it gently down your body. It’s soft and smells like him, and even though it’s enormous, it still stretches tight across your belly, hugging your hips, clinging to your chest like it was never meant to fit someone like you.

You sit on the edge of the bed, panting slightly, cradling the swell of your gut. You feel full. Soft. Fed.

Changed.

And then you see it.

On the nightstand.

A small, familiar-looking capsule. Sitting beside a glass of water. Waiting.

You stare at it.

“You left another one?” you ask, voice barely above a whisper.

He doesn’t answer at first. He kneels down in front of you again, taking your hands gently in his. “I wanted you to see. To feel what it’s like first. To know what you’re saying yes to.”

You swallow. Your heart thuds loud in your ears. You look down at yourself—thighs squished together, belly hanging over the edge of the mattress, shirt riding up your hips already.

You’re enormous.

And you could be bigger.

“Just one more,” he says softly. “No pressure. If you don’t want it, I’ll take it away.”

But he doesn’t move.

You reach for the pill slowly, fingers trembling.

It’s still warm from the light. Waiting. Promise glinting in the smooth curve of it.

You glance back at him. “If I take this one…” You trail off. “Will it do the same thing?”

“Maybe more,” he murmurs, eyes locked on yours. “Your body’s used to it now. It might not even take twenty minutes.”

Your belly grumbles again, louder this time. A sharp hunger, as if the first transformation only whet your appetite.

You stare at the pill. Then at him. Then back at your stretched body.

And you pop it into your mouth.

Swallow.

His fingers tighten gently around yours.

“Good girl,” he whispers.

And already, the warmth is blooming in your core again.

You barely have time to set the empty glass back on the nightstand before the warmth returns.

It starts low in your belly, like a coiled ember flaring to life. You inhale sharply and press your hands to your middle, feeling that telltale pressure again—not pain, not exactly. Just the sensation of something swelling, stretching, filling from the inside out.

Only this time, you don’t panic.

You wait.

You watch.

You’re still sitting on the bed in his oversized shirt, the hem resting high on your bare thighs, your body already overgrown, overstimulated, sore from what he’s done to you. The fabric stretches tighter with each passing second. Your belly begins to push further into your lap again, softening, rounding, growing heavier with every slow breath.

“Oh god,” you whisper. “It’s happening again…”

He’s standing in front of you, hands on your knees, eyes locked on your body with reverence. “You’re doing so well,” he says softly, rubbing circles into your plush thighs. “Just breathe through it.”

You moan—helpless, already shifting to make room for yourself. You can feel the fat returning, piling on in slow waves, your skin buzzing with it. Your thighs spread further, belly sliding over them now. The shirt rides up inch by inch, clinging desperately to your swelling frame, the fabric bunching beneath your breasts.

You bite your lip as your hips widen against the bedspread. Your love handles begin to push outward, your backside thickening beneath you with soft, delicious weight. Your arms are heavy now, your upper arms dimpling, the sleeves of the shirt growing tight.

He watches you like a worshipper in church.

“You’re—watching me grow,” you murmur, voice thick.

“Yes,” he breathes. “And you’re letting it happen.”

You nod, dazed. You are. And that’s what makes this different.

You chose this one.

You shift, trying to lift yourself slightly, but you’re already heavier than you were minutes ago. Your belly quivers as it shifts, spreading wider across your lap, pressing against your thighs. Your breath catches as you feel the underside brush the tops of your knees.

“How big…” you ask between gasps, “How big will I get?”

He leans in, lips brushing your ear. “Big enough to forget who you were before. Big enough that you’ll need my help. For everything.”

Your body responds before your mind does—thighs clenching, belly heaving, nipples hard beneath the tightening shirt. Your second chin is thicker now, brushing the top of your chest when you glance down. Your cheeks are round and flushed. You look stuffed, decadent. And you’re still growing.

Another wave hits you, heavier this time. You fall back into the pillows with a whimper, one hand on your belly as it rises higher, firmer, deeper. Your thighs shake. The seams at the sides of the shirt groan in protest.

“I can’t stop,” you gasp. “It’s not slowing down—”

“You don’t need to stop,” he whispers, crawling onto the bed beside you. “You’re beautiful. Every inch. Every pound. You were meant for this.”

You close your eyes and surrender to the feeling—his hands gliding over your newly forming rolls, his fingers sinking into your waist, your hips, your middle as they all bloom under his touch. He lifts the shirt, baring your belly as it swells, warm and flushed and trembling beneath his palms.

And you feel it now—not just the growth, but the power in it. The weight. The surrender. The strange, addictive pleasure of becoming something more than you were.

“I’m getting… so fat,” you moan, voice high and broken.

“Yes,” he murmurs, kissing the curve of your belly. “And you’re not done yet.”

Trying to get away?

[whereserpentswalk]

Your girlfriend came back from the dead "wrong", or at least that's what everyone says. She died quickly and slowly, far too young, and for a reason that would not have happened if the world was a better place. You were both going to the same college, she was majoring in film studies while you were majoring in necromancy, you lived in the same apartment together for so long. When you chose to bring her back you had to deal with faeries, and gods few people dare to pray to, but you got her back. Not because you deserved to have her but because she deserved to live.

She isn't what she used to be. Her face looks plasticish and embalmed, and because you didn't have that much skin to work with she's permanently sown into her clothing, that fancy outfit that was always her favorite. You didn't know it at the time but the spell gave her sharp teeth, and black eyes, and a desire for raw meat. It's not the body you would have given her if you had better ways of working. But your happy she's here. Your happy she's alive.

She's considered to have been revived wrong. You don't see it that way, the spells worked as well as they did. She's considered low functioning undead, creatures that are almost always thought of as entirely inhuman. She's considered a failure because she's not able to function like a human would, she doesn't move like a human, can't go out during daylight, acts erratically, is afraid a lot of the time. She's considered a failure because she can't work or go to school like she used to, even though she's alive that's not enough for most people. People are afraid she'll start going out at night and start attacking people on your block, she won't, even she's afraid of that but she doesn't need you to control her, she just has some very scary thoughts and abilities.

People sometimes say she's your experiment, or your pet, or like your daughter. She's not, she's still your girlfriend, you still love her and want to be with her. You comfort her when she's scared. You sing to her, and tell her about your day when you get home, and sit on the couch watching movies with her. You hold her to keep her warm because of how much having a cold body seems to upset her, and she'll push her face into your breasts, and touch you in ways someone touches their girlfriend.

Her parents act like she's fully gone. Calling her a mockery of her old self. Some higher functioning undead that you know have even called her an insult. And even a lot of people you know are so focused on the idea of her getting better. But you don't love her so that she can get better, you love her because it is a gift to love her, whatever form she may take.

Wow that's two magical people that don't want to be magical people. That's fun!

lore of my OCs and a little joke below:

Rory, my guy, is a 16-yo trans guy who's self aware that he's in a magical girl show and has fought against the showrunners for his identity and peace of mind for actual years. He hates pretty much everything and everyone including half of his magical team, is horribly paranoid and trauma-filled, despises authority [even though the old showrunners have sold their rights to a new team that is much more willing to listen] and just wants to go to sleep for a few eons instead of literally being stuck fighting baddies in fear that not doing that will get the show cancelled and that might actually kill him whoopsies

also

(Chloe, my best friend character, was a background character that Rory picked instead of his assigned best friend because even at the very beginning he was a rebellious little cretin. She then survived a 4 or so year long situationship with him. So there's a few parallels there lol)

(she's also wondering how difficult it's gonna be for Zira once they find out they're in an animated TV show, not really processing that they will never know that.)

Gushing Over Magical Girls vs. Happy Sugar Life

Gushing Over Magical Girls (manga by Ononaka Akihiro) [explicit]

Submitted problematic elements: PHEW BOY, what isn't problematic about it? Sexual assault, manipulation, the entire cast being underage.

Submitted content warnings: Sexual assault for sure, noncon, dubcon, ageplay, bdsm

Submitted propaganda: Its genuinely good. Its a genuinely interesting story with excellent character designs and entertaining characters and the horniness is not just a coating of titties for fanservice, but fundamental to the plot. It is about self discovery and learning to accept yourself but not letting your desires consume you. The action is tense. The relationships between characters are interesting. Each character is charming in their own way, from the flop loser MC who is playing villain because she's hard up for magical girls to the magical girl who joined the good team bc the others watched her beat a demon in the head with a brick to the supervillain college dropout who wants to rule the world. There is an overarching mystery concerning why and how these girls gained power to begin with (i do NOT trust that little shit of a mascot). The mood and tone of the story is so masterful-- you can TELL when somethings wrong. There is also some very good comedy all throughout-- it's just a super fun read! They also got their first season of an anime recently (which is somehow hornier than the manga) so.

Happy Sugar Life (manga by Kagisora Tomiyaki) [suggestive; gore/violence]

Submitted problematic elements: Kidnapping and age gap

Submitted content warnings: Suicide, gore, spousal and child abuse

Submitted propaganda: the cycle of abuse doesn't stop with them!!!!

Team Butterfly Forever! (WIP Web Novel)

Okay, now that I'm three chapters into writing it and I've got momentum behind me, I want to properly pitch my WIP writing project to people.

Team Butterfly Forever is a post-magical girl story. In 2004, a young girl named Eve got a magical necklace from a talking cat, transformed into the magnificent Butterfly Ward, met friends like her, fought evil, and defended San Francisco from the sinister Dark Queen. Evil defeated, city saved, happily ever after.

Now it's 2014, and Eve needs to get the Butterfly Knights back together. The only problem is, they're in absolutely no state; it turns out that having to fight evil when you're 14 makes for messed up 24 year olds. Eve will need every scrap of the power of love and (adult) friendship the save the world, and more importantly, save her friends. So cards on the table? This isn't actually Sailor Moon fanfiction, but it's not not Sailor Moon fanfiction. It is very much wearing its inspiration on its sleeve, and the serial numbers have been filed off primarily because I'm looking to do crimes with it.

I'll be up front; it starts in a pretty dark place. This is very much a story about growing up with trauma and what that does to you. But it's also a comedy, a story about healing, and in the finest tradition of magical girls, a story about pressing on anyway because your friends need you.

Also... every single character is queer. So there's that.

I'm currently writing it as fast as I can; there's no set update schedule, but I posted the first segment a month ago and I'm about 1/4th of the way through my projected length. The story has been fully planned ahead of time, so it won't get hung up on where to go next; I'm hoping to have it done around April, but if you start following now you'll be able to see it take shape and speculate along with other readers.

It is being posted on the Sufficient Velocity, an old-school, moderated forum for lovers of sci-fi, fanfic, and interactive fiction. It's a very queer friendly space, and I highly encourage you to check it out. It'll be exclusive there until I have a final print version; I want to add to this community I love instead of spreading this story out across many isolated spaces, and see discussion about it as it happens. You can also follow the story there to be alerted to updates, and there's tons of other fiction being written on the forum all the time!

If you want to see my other work, my forum signature has interactive and traditional fiction I've posted on the site going back to 2017, including first drafts of my previous novels Whispers from the Deep and Lieutenant Fusilier in the Farthest Reaches.

I hope you enjoy!

[whereserpentswalk]

There's an orc attending your college. Your city is pretty diverse, there's a lot of human cultures represented there, and even harpies and dwarves are common. But an orc is still a really rare sight. And she's not assimilated at all, she wears the symbol of the dark lord around her neak, and the strange black cloths from the wastelands she came from, and she always seems to have a gun somewhere on her. It's strange just to see an orc in person, she's not like the green skinned monsters you see in movies, her eyes are pitch black, and her skin is so pale you can see veins, she's muscular and tell but also strangely skinny, and her teeth are sharp and spiked like a sharks, this one doesn't have tusks, just these rows of serrated teeth.

Everyone avoids her at first. There's something creepy about her. She doesn't move like a human. She emotes weirdly, being stoic during conversations, but sometimes smiling or laughing at odd times. In class it becomes clear that she lacks knowledge anyone growing up in your society has, but has extensive knowledge on things most humans will never know. She also very clearly supports the dark lord and the demons who serve him, and gets mad when his narrative of conquest and strict genetic hierarchy is challenged in class.

You end up paired with her for a class project. It's weirdly awkward. But you end up spending more time with her then most. It still takes awhile to get used to her mannerisms, and you have to convince her of evolution in a long debate (but eventually you do convince her). She seems strangely naive to a lot of things. Every time she does something that she considers a failure she goes into self loathing, and she gets really afraid she's going to be punished. You have to explain to her things are going to be ok sometimes.

You try to spend time with her. She supports the dark lord but out of a strange sense of fear more than the type of ideological support humans in nations not under his control have. When she does something that she thinks is heresy agaisnt him she becomes afraid. And while she's angry at people who follow gods other than him (which is basically everyone here) she's more afraid of them than everything. When a holy symbol you own touches her she's surprised it doesn't burn her, you have to tell her it's ok.

She has a lot more freedom here than she did back in the wastelands. You slowly help her realize she doesn't have to worry about being punished for sinning agasint the dark lord. She's able to go on the internet for the first time, you help her get everything set up. You also introduce her to your freinds, only some of whom feel safe around her, but those who do seem to like her.

It's weird just hanging out in her dorm. She can be weirdly laid back and introspective at times, at least when she's not nervous or paranoid. But when she's just relaxing she'll tell you about things, about the beauty of the desert sands, about what it was like to observe the rattlesnakes and condors and wyverns of her homeland. How she likes to observe the city, the way the diffrent people flow through it, she was scared of it at first but now she likes to explore it, and the way it lacks stars at night but the lights from the buildings replace it. She says she wishes she could stay here forever, that she wishes she could be an artist but that she was sent here to learn skills useful to the dark lord's empire.

There's something nice about showing her new things. You get to take her to a musical for the first time. Get to show her neighborhoods you like. Get to explain to her what public transport is (though she got scared feeling trapped in a subway car). You get to show her stuff she never got to experience because orcs are never really children, she loves getting to hold a plush for the first time, or watching cartoons for the first time, it's like she's finally getting to live an experience she never had. Even though she's a well armed adult she really likes plushies once she finds out about them, they weren't something she was allowed to have back home.

Over time she starts meeting people and learning things that go against her worldview. As she makes more friends, understands new things, slowly learns that she shouldn't be punished for mistakes, she slowly comes around to seeing how fucked up the world the was raised in is. She tells you she doesn't want to worship the dark lord anymore, she cries just from saying it. You hug her, and realize she's never been hugged before, she seems to really like that feeling. She bathes in the waters of a healing goddess, and she worships something out of love instead of fear for the first time.

Eventually the spawning warlock who spawned her and her siblings comes to visit her. You told her to be careful but she ended up spilling that she doesn't worship the dark lord, she ends up spilling all the things a warlock like that considers a sin. When he leaves she tells you she can't go home. Not ever. Never again will she see the shifting sands, or flying condor, or flowing serpents of her homelands. She's trapped where she is now.

You know it hurts her a lot. She says she feels like she's in a small pocket of safety. Back home she'd be hurt for being an apostate. In human lands outside of the city she'd be hurt for being an orc. But she's safe here. She stays in her apartment for awhile, while you try to make things work. She's finally changing her major to art, and despite everything she's finally free, free to watch the starless sky, free to not be punished when she makes a mistake...

Problematic Yuri Tournament - Round Two

Gushing Over Magical Girls vs. Sorry but I'm Not Into Yuri

Gushing Over Magical Girls (manga by Ononaka Akihiro) [explicit]

Submitted problematic elements: PHEW BOY, what isn't problematic about it? Sexual assault, manipulation, the entire cast being underage.

Submitted content warnings: Sexual assault for sure, noncon, dubcon, ageplay, bdsm

Submitted propaganda: Its genuinely good. Its a genuinely interesting story with excellent character designs and entertaining characters and the horniness is not just a coating of titties for fanservice, but fundamental to the plot. It is about self discovery and learning to accept yourself but not letting your desires consume you. The action is tense. The relationships between characters are interesting. Each character is charming in their own way, from the flop loser MC who is playing villain because she's hard up for magical girls to the magical girl who joined the good team bc the others watched her beat a demon in the head with a brick to the supervillain college dropout who wants to rule the world. There is an overarching mystery concerning why and how these girls gained power to begin with (i do NOT trust that little shit of a mascot). The mood and tone of the story is so masterful-- you can TELL when somethings wrong. There is also some very good comedy all throughout-- it's just a super fun read! They also got their first season of an anime recently (which is somehow hornier than the manga) so.

Sorry but I'm Not Into Yuri (manga by Mochi au Lait) [explicit]

Mod submission; MC fervently denies she likes girls at all while repeatedly drugging them into falling in love with her using a love potion. Plenty of drugging and dubcon/noncon shenanigans ensue. She's totally straight though she swears.

I've decided fuck it, I'm writing a magical girl story.
