With a click of the crosswalk button and a loud huff, I lean forward against my own gigantic, slime dragon filled gut as I try to catch my breath. " Aww... *Huff* geez! I didn't... *Huff* think i'd even make it this... far with you in there." I say to Kio as my belly slowly comes to a wobbly stop, his muffled voice soon emitting from it.

"See? I told you that you could make it! Even with me being so tired after today you still seem to have enough energy to carry me and those last half dozen buffets in ya!" Even so, I felt like I could just roll on over onto the sidewalk and call it a day there as the day's sun was quickly fleeting and I still had a way to go.

"J-just glad i've carried a belly like this before or i'd for sure be suck here." I say off handidly as I wait for the crosswalk's sign to change, I swear these buttons do nothing but for good measure I push it once more.

"Really? That's good to know!" The slime dragon says, my belly slightly wobbling from his snickering I can just hear from within. "... but I bet it's still a challenge, isin't it? How about this, you get home and i'll make it up to you! A good rest in here should give me plenty of energy to cook you up a bit of something... what do ya say?"

Honestly, it sounded heavenly right about now to get off my hooves and get a bit more food in me after all this. So with a nod and a pat to my belly, I agree. "I say you're on, Hoo... though WHEN I get back may be something else to see about there."

Again, my belly wobbles. "Good, good! Now, speaking of time, you best get a move on there. You're gonna need all 15 of those seconds to make it over." He says. I look up and sure enough, the countdown is ticking and with a bright orange "7" blinking into view, I heft myself up once more and begin to move towards home and the promise of a well fed night ahead.







A bit of a attempt to both get more pictures out with Kio and lu and also try to break this art block that's been going on by setting up for a _hopefully upcoming sequence!
