  "writing": "A key turns in its lock, opening the door; with a resigned huff, she steps inwards, finding her gaze meet her paws. It's far easier for her to concentrate on the here and now rather than let her mind ruminate on all the muddy details of [i]work[/i].\n\nShe hangs up her jacket, tossing it loosely into place on the coat-rack, bionic tail swishing dangerously close to knocking it off axis. At the very least, the sight of home was a relief. This cottage was filled with good times, enough to let a simmer of heat back into her heart after a cold day. Each wall is adorned with pictures, and memorabilia, and pretty rocks that her lover found on the ground. Shelves, lined with flora, with flowers growing not just out of their little pots but out of the cobbled cottage walls themselves. Despite the time spent jam-packing this place with love, rumination is an afterthought, and all that sticks in Ky's mind is needing somewhere cozy to lay.\n\nShe closes the door behind her, the latch audibly clicking into place – and as if summoned by the sound, a set of little legs pitter-patter through the house, rapidly approaching. It stops abruptly, with a creature standing in the doorway, bug-eyed, staring up at Ky from seven or eight paces away with nary a brain cell to spare.\n\n“Hiiiii Kyyyyyy..~” The scaly beast mutters...\n\n“Hi Jenny...” Ky responds, playfully rolling her slit eyes with a half-smile. She really did fall in love with this ditz of a kobold.\n\nJen scampers over to Ky, taking hold of one of her bare kitty hands and cradling it gently in the grip of hers. Ky leans forward, with a little bit of a crouch, offering her cheek to Jenny for a smooch, which she gladly accepts. [i]Mwah![/i]\n\n“How you doin', kitty-cat?”\n\n“Mm,” Ky deliberates, a gnarl of unease scribbled across her brow, “work wasn't fun today. I'm not sure if I want to go into it.”\n\n“Work sucked?” She parrots back, her scaled claw rubbing into the back of Ky's paw, kneading into the skin. “You wanna come sit down with me for a while? We don't have to talk about it, we can just be together...”\n\nKy nods, eyes drifting towards the living room couch. “I'd like that. In here?”\n\n“I was thinking the backyard actually...the weather's nice, and we could share the sunset together, maybe..?”\n\n“You're so sweet, Jenny~” Ky chuckles, Jenny's cutesy idea having already won her over.\n\nJen takes Ky by the paw – despite their considerable difference in size – stringing her along through the dining room, the kitchen, through the backdoor and into their garden, a small patio leading into a vibrant show of greenery. With the season's blessings, the whole backyard is lit up with greens; heliotropes, and salvias, and dotted sunflowers blooming at their fullest, pointing eagerly towards the afternoon sun with a lingering aroma, and grapevines twirling up trellises with juicy-looking yields. The subtle buzz and chirps of insects and birds alike puts the two of them at ease, with Ky's shoulders slumping beside her.\n\nThe pair nestle onto a canopy bench, the overhang granting them some needed shade from the summer sun.\n\nClimbing atop Ky, Jen croons, shifting herself atop Ky's midriff. Ky, laying on her side, her head pressed flush against a soft cushion, gently purrs at her girlfriend's delicate touch.\n\n“It's alright, Ky...I'm here for you,” she whispers, massaging her stout kobold mitts into Ky's side, “so relax, okay? Don't worry, let me take care of you.”\n\nHer words are resonant, and the tone of voice effortlessly washes away most of Ky's anxieties. The fading sun glowing against Jenny's body, backlighting her with a yellowish vignette, reaches up to her chubby little cheeks and dorky smile. Her love is glowing.\n\n“Thank you.”\n\nAdrift in the moment, Ky brings a paw up behind Jenny, squeezing her in closer and tighter. Jen trails kisses down the side of Ky's neck, one after the other, her weight keeping her lover pinned and warmed.\n\nEven still, a little thorn pricks at Ky's mind. She can't shake work from her thoughts.\n\n“Is something wrong?” Jen posits, noticing Ky's waning smile.\n\n“This is...it's lovely, and I mean it. But, I can't really take my mind off of things, even now. Maybe I should do something a bit more active to keep myself occupied?”\n\n“Something to keep yourself occupied, huh?” She ponders, trying to offload some of the thinking duties off of Ky. The thought doesn't come to her immediately, but an errant spark in her mind flickers for just long enough. First, her eyes open wide with her proud 'eureka' moment, and her countenance switches just as suddenly into a sly smile.\n\n“Y'know, if you're okay with it, I might know what could help.” She nudges Ky, pointing her claw at the open kitchen window. “Remember those growth tinctures we bought last month?~”\n\nKy lights up in embarrassment, mind cleansed by the possibilities running through it.\n\n“That...would in fact do it,” confirms Ky, trying to keep her composure, “forgot we had those actually!”\n\n“Only if you're okay with it...” She reassures Ky, tracing a finger down the side of her face. Ky returns with a gentle nod, and Jenny peels herself off of the comfy bench, and equally comfy lover.\n\n“I'll brew something up for you, m'kay? Make you a nice drink, pour them in...”\n\n“Gosh...keep it a surprise for me, please?” Ky averts her beady eyes, overcome by shyness, “It's...fun when I don't know what's gonna happen~”\n\n“Uh huh!~”\n\nJen slinks into the kitchen, with Ky lovingly eyeing what little of her she can see through the open window, watching patiently despite her burgeoning excitement. With only a partial view, she can't tell what exactly her lover's making in there, especially given the whirring blender, and it only makes the wait more tantalizing. What parts of her would grow, and how much? A generous sprinkle, or would it be completely over the top? And how would it [i]feel?[/i]\n\nClasped between her digits, Jenny parades out a drinking glass; the mystery liquid filling it is a creamy, pale orange, but there are flashes of variable colours that flare up and die down within the glass – magical reagents making themselves known in an otherwise unassuming beverage.\n\n“The drink in question?” Ky asks bluntly, trying to figure it out from appearance.\n\n“It's an Orange Julius! Thought I'd make something that I know you really like~”\n\n“Heheh, I had a hunch. Thanks, honey.”\n\nJen hands off the drink to Ky, who puts it to her pursed lips, taking a slow and thoughtful sip...\n\n“Is it good?”\n\n“Sweet, and a little zesty...it's lovely.”\n\n“Like you!” Jenny snaps back. Ky audibly snorts, putting her other paw up to her mouth to stifle her laughter.\n\n“[b]Hahah[/b]! Alright, alright, wait until I'm [i]finished[/i] drinking to be a comedian.”\n\nShe takes a few more swigs, then swings the rest back. The citrus taste is familiar, comforting. The fun additions don't add much taste, but it sparkles in her mouth, electric like pop rocks. Drink travelling down from her gullet, the crackling sensation follows close behind, caught against the back of her throat, but also floating up to her head at the same time. Placebo, or perhaps the line between physicality and the images in her head is beginning to blur?\n\nKy sits up, bracing her free paw to the side of herself, trying to keep her head straight, though the growing fuzz accumulating in her brain keeps her askew.\n\n[i]“Wow,”[/i] Ky huffs out, caught in a web of suspense as internal impulses mount and pile up within her. Surrounding her is a world of warmth, with the glass in her hand warmer than anything else. Little dots of heat trickle in through her right-hand wrist, pushing their way further into her paw's palm...pressure builds within her digits, growing, rising...\n\n[i]Fwoomph![/i] Like a kernel of popcorn, one of her paw digits pops up to over twice its size, sticking out like...well, like a sore thumb! Ky's eyes gape open and a blush follows in the wake.\n\n“Can't stop it now~” Jen chimes in, sultry and teasing. She tilts her footing up to her lover and handily snatches the glass from out of the danger zone, before any silly little accidents can happen.\n\nEach extremity of her paw sprouts up in an unstable order; her pinky, then index, the thumb, ring and middle finger each blowing up past their limit at random, and finally followed by one massive expansion at her palm, her pawpad ballooning up suddenly with a force that doubtless would have launched the drinking glass to its utter obliteration...\n\nKy brings her two paws up in front of her face, the other still experiencing a delayed reaction. A dumbfounded laughter erupts from her throat, comparing her miniscule hand to the other about three times its size. The difference in weight is substantial, and it takes some difficulty keeping it upright at all!\n\nHaving already stashed away the glass, Jenny is all over the new growth, and presses her claws into Ky's sized paw, squidging it inwards to see just how much give it has, even affording a small kiss at the ridge of one of her beans. It's like soft dough, letting her push it far inwards, but splaying back out into shape a little after each divot.\n\n“Well, I thought everything would grow in at the same time! You still look like a goofball either way, hehe~♡”\n\n“Jennyyyyy...” Ky exhales, winded from embarrassment. Her cheeks are hot flushed, her body twitchy. The absence of a mirror to check herself in is the only thing keeping her from short-circuiting entirely.\n\nRising to her feet, Ky takes a deep, [i]deep[/i] breath, head full of hot air.\n\nHer footing barely lasts, with a sudden tension breaking away in her ankle. Her left footpaw expands rapidly, the force of it knocking her into a stumble! A lack of balance carries her off to the side, desperately trying to get stable again! But her smaller paw is dwarfed by the size of her bigger one, and the bigger paw's grip leaves much to be desired. She elbows a potted plant, kicks over a shovel leant against a wall, leaving destruction in her wake. Indeed, she cannot be stopped now.\n\nLeaping into action, Jenny grabs onto Ky's enlarged handpaw, pulling her back, inches away from her crashing right through a fence! Her small stature has her playing a sick and twisted game of tug-o'-war against gravity itself, her partner as the unfortunate and grossly misshapen rope. Ky feels Jen's paws sink into her own, her most faithful appendages reduced to pillowy proprietors of poor proprioception and property damage. She's just about stabilized by the timely intervention, but not by much.\n\n“My head's spinning~” Ky murmurs, cognition at a low. Her whole body emanates a tingly sort-of warmth, exacerbated by her mind running wild.\n\nTinged with a slight nervousness to let go, Jenny caresses her lover's shoulder, running her touch down the side of Ky's body, down her waist and rubbing into her hips.\n\n“Can you stand alright, sweetie?” Jen prudently asks.\n\nKy tuts, inhales, and pauses...\n\n“Nnnnope!”\n\nFollowed by [i]uproarious[/i] laughter. And as if to punctuate the joke, the cybernetic segments of her tail begin to stretch out all at once, even her bodymods left unsafe, as her tail blasts outwards to obscene levels of girth, heavy enough to send her tumbling right onto her behind. Her centre of mass is all kinds of messed up, and the heft tacked on behind her [i]slams[/i] into the ground, cracking the stone beneath it. Leaves displace from a nearby tree, a stray bird leaving its perch there, and wind chimes jingle discordantly at the force of impact. More pressingly, a trellis perched on the back wall begins to tip, forward, forward, falling–\n\n[b]DONK![/b]\n\n–that's gonna leave a mark tomorrow. Now Ky's tangled in vines, adorned with a necklace of split grapes, and flanked by a backdrop worthy of taking a photo with.\n\nShe could not be happier.\n\n“[i]Pff–[/i][b]hahahahah![/b]”\n\nIt's infectious, Jenny can't help but join in.\n\nClearly not above tempting fate, Ky sloppily wipes a tear from her eye. “How could this get any more silly?!”\n\n“Well, I know of one way...”\n\n[i]Fwoomph![/i]\n\n“...Did my chest just–“\n\n“Gotta say, this is a good look for you, Ky!”",

Make you a nice drink, pour them in...&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Gosh...keep it a surprise for me, please?&rdquo; Ky averts her beady eyes, overcome by shyness, &ldquo;It&#039;s...fun when I don&#039;t know what&#039;s gonna happen~&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Uh huh!~&rdquo;<br /><br />Jen slinks into the kitchen, with Ky lovingly eyeing what little of her she can see through the open window, watching patiently despite her burgeoning excitement. With only a partial view, she can&#039;t tell what exactly her lover&#039;s making in there, especially given the whirring blender, and it only makes the wait more tantalizing. What parts of her would grow, and how much? A generous sprinkle, or would it be completely over the top? And how would it <em>feel?</em><br /><br />Clasped between her digits, Jenny parades out a drinking glass; the mystery liquid filling it is a creamy, pale orange, but there are flashes of variable colours that flare up and die down within the glass &ndash; magical reagents making themselves known in an otherwise unassuming beverage.<br /><br />&ldquo;The drink in question?&rdquo; Ky asks bluntly, trying to figure it out from appearance.<br /><br />&ldquo;It&#039;s an Orange Julius! Thought I&#039;d make something that I know you really like~&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Heheh, I had a hunch. Thanks, honey.&rdquo;<br /><br />Jen hands off the drink to Ky, who puts it to her pursed lips, taking a slow and thoughtful sip...<br /><br />&ldquo;Is it good?&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Sweet, and a little zesty...it&#039;s lovely.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Like you!&rdquo; Jenny snaps back. Ky audibly snorts, putting her other paw up to her mouth to stifle her laughter.<br /><br />&ldquo;<strong>Hahah</strong>! Alright, alright, wait until I&#039;m <em>finished</em> drinking to be a comedian.&rdquo;<br /><br />She takes a few more swigs, then swings the rest back. The citrus taste is familiar, comforting. The fun additions don&#039;t add much taste, but it sparkles in her mouth, electric like pop rocks. Drink travelling down from her gullet, the crackling sensation follows close behind, caught against the back of her throat, but also floating up to her head at the same time. Placebo, or perhaps the line between physicality and the images in her head is beginning to blur?<br /><br />Ky sits up, bracing her free paw to the side of herself, trying to keep her head straight, though the growing fuzz accumulating in her brain keeps her askew.<br /><br /><em>&ldquo;Wow,&rdquo;</em> Ky huffs out, caught in a web of suspense as internal impulses mount and pile up within her. Surrounding her is a world of warmth, with the glass in her hand warmer than anything else. Little dots of heat trickle in through her right-hand wrist, pushing their way further into her paw&#039;s palm...pressure builds within her digits, growing, rising...<br /><br /><em>Fwoomph!</em> Like a kernel of popcorn, one of her paw digits pops up to over twice its size, sticking out like...well, like a sore thumb! Ky&#039;s eyes gape open and a blush follows in the wake.<br /><br />&ldquo;Can&#039;t stop it now~&rdquo; Jen chimes in, sultry and teasing. She tilts her footing up to her lover and handily snatches the glass from out of the danger zone, before any silly little accidents can happen.<br /><br />Each extremity of her paw sprouts up in an unstable order; her pinky, then index, the thumb, ring and middle finger each blowing up past their limit at random, and finally followed by one massive expansion at her palm, her pawpad ballooning up suddenly with a force that doubtless would have launched the drinking glass to its utter obliteration...<br /><br />Ky brings her two paws up in front of her face, the other still experiencing a delayed reaction. A dumbfounded laughter erupts from her throat, comparing her miniscule hand to the other about three times its size. The difference in weight is substantial, and it takes some difficulty keeping it upright at all!<br /><br />Having already stashed away the glass, Jenny is all over the new growth, and presses her claws into Ky&#039;s sized paw, squidging it inwards to see just how much give it has, even affording a small kiss at the ridge of one of her beans. It&#039;s like soft dough, letting her push it far inwards, but splaying back out into shape a little after each divot.<br /><br />&ldquo;Well, I thought everything would grow in at the same time! You still look like a goofball either way, hehe~♡&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Jennyyyyy...&rdquo; Ky exhales, winded from embarrassment. Her cheeks are hot flushed, her body twitchy. The absence of a mirror to check herself in is the only thing keeping her from short-circuiting entirely.<br /><br />Rising to her feet, Ky takes a deep, <em>deep</em> breath, head full of hot air.<br /><br />Her footing barely lasts, with a sudden tension breaking away in her ankle. Her left footpaw expands rapidly, the force of it knocking her into a stumble! A lack of balance carries her off to the side, desperately trying to get stable again! But her smaller paw is dwarfed by the size of her bigger one, and the bigger paw&#039;s grip leaves much to be desired. She elbows a potted plant, kicks over a shovel leant against a wall, leaving destruction in her wake. Indeed, she cannot be stopped now.<br /><br />Leaping into action, Jenny grabs onto Ky&#039;s enlarged handpaw, pulling her back, inches away from her crashing right through a fence! Her small stature has her playing a sick and twisted game of tug-o&#039;-war against gravity itself, her partner as the unfortunate and grossly misshapen rope. Ky feels Jen&#039;s paws sink into her own, her most faithful appendages reduced to pillowy proprietors of poor proprioception and property damage. She&#039;s just about stabilized by the timely intervention, but not by much.<br /><br />&ldquo;My head&#039;s spinning~&rdquo; Ky murmurs, cognition at a low. Her whole body emanates a tingly sort-of warmth, exacerbated by her mind running wild.<br /><br />Tinged with a slight nervousness to let go, Jenny caresses her lover&#039;s shoulder, running her touch down the side of Ky&#039;s body, down her waist and rubbing into her hips.<br /><br />&ldquo;Can you stand alright, sweetie?&rdquo; Jen prudently asks.<br /><br />Ky tuts, inhales, and pauses...<br /><br />&ldquo;Nnnnope!&rdquo;<br /><br />Followed by <em>uproarious</em> laughter. And as if to punctuate the joke, the cybernetic segments of her tail begin to stretch out all at once, even her bodymods left unsafe, as her tail blasts outwards to obscene levels of girth, heavy enough to send her tumbling right onto her behind. Her centre of mass is all kinds of messed up, and the heft tacked on behind her <em>slams</em> into the ground, cracking the stone beneath it. Leaves displace from a nearby tree, a stray bird leaving its perch there, and wind chimes jingle discordantly at the force of impact. More pressingly, a trellis perched on the back wall begins to tip, forward, forward, falling&ndash;<br /><br /><strong>DONK!</strong><br /><br />&ndash;that&#039;s gonna leave a mark tomorrow. Now Ky&#039;s tangled in vines, adorned with a necklace of split grapes, and flanked by a backdrop worthy of taking a photo with.<br /><br />She could not be happier.<br /><br />&ldquo;<em>Pff&ndash;</em><strong>hahahahah!</strong>&rdquo;<br /><br />It&#039;s infectious, Jenny can&#039;t help but join in.<br /><br />Clearly not above tempting fate, Ky sloppily wipes a tear from her eye. &ldquo;How could this get any more silly?!&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Well, I know of one way...&rdquo;<br /><br /><em>Fwoomph!</em><br /><br />&ldquo;...Did my chest just&ndash;&ldquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Gotta say, this is a good look for you, Ky!&rdquo;</span>",
