sending more asks because i am Concerned that i am getting sick Again which would be Stupid because I was sick last month with COVID and i have had three colds in addition to that since the start of 2024

when alphas bulk in rut. is it hard or soft.

like.

is bulked-out-alpha something that you could just kinda smush your face in or would it be like smushing your face into a rock wall. are they fun human pillow or are they unpleasant brick in the bed. does it vary by person. which is wilson (i hope fun human pillow and not brick in bed because he is a soft soft man but if house were an alpha i bet he'd be Brick). foreman i bet is either brick because he is not a warm fuzzy person OR he's soft but rejects that. but what do i know. it ain't my mgv.

or even more out there of an idea. do they get. like. swelling. like when i get a flu shot and my arm is huge for two weeks. is it like. water balloons. if you poked them with a sewing needle would they get debulked (not recommended Angry Alpha Warning)

WELL there are some factors to HOW a specific alpha bulks up that plays into the squish of them. genetics alone means there's some variation already, but more than that is age. older alphas still bulk but will put on more fat and less muscle and many alphas who first present as teens have fluctuating ratios as their bodies learn to adjust to the hormones since it is another puberty after all.

wilson is more soft but he's solid, too. muscle growth is hidden under a layer of fat so by appearances he's teddy bear. soft and fluffy and cute. it's easy to forget he still does get some crazy alpha strength, too.

foreman is more 'brick' because he actually tends to go to the gym as an outlet for his rut while most alphas in the modern day go for sex and little else. foreman fucks, obviously, but he gets more longterm satisfaction from working out

now cuddy...... SHE'S the brick. given her administrative position she goes on rut leave earlier as to ensure the combative nature of a brain on rut doesn't contribute to a decision that could endanger the hospital, so she's kind of elusive to see bulked up. house, who naturally has seen her in that state before, does his best to be on his worst behavior before she goes on leave just to see if she'll use that strength on him (it's.... not sexual harrassment. but it's close)

they do swell, also, as a side effect of rut is increased blood production, so i guess there's always a degree of swelling (it also pads out the spaces where fat/muscle don't typically gather + ensures this sudden new weight gets a healthy supply)
