Hopelessly Addicted Stage Four (Patreon)

It’s only been a few days since our last check in.

Our subject Claire has, at this point, outdrank her arms & legs. It was one last insane binge that put her over the top, while also emptying out her bank account & maxing out her card’s spending limit. But for her? During those last couple cups? All was right with the world. She was living the dream & things were just… glorious.

With her awkward new center of gravity, it was leaning to obtain that very last drop that caused poor Claire to tilt & spill onto the floor. Her sloshy form wobbled & swayed for almost a minute after as her round body settled into place. With hardly any ability to kick or reach, she’s left helplessly stranded. And it’s left her with what has been enough time to reflect.

The cravings are very much still on her mind. She certainly isn’t stopping by choice. But foregoing a few cups in what has been a constant stream for the past few weeks has opened her up for a bit of a moment of clarity. And some level of regret may be starting to set in. But not quite in the way you might think.

Because Claire isn’t left regretting what has become of her. At least not in a very self-aware way. No. Claire regrets not trying to plan a little better! After all, she could sort of kind of tell all what all those lattes doing to her. How things weren’t fitting, how chairs & doorways started to become so darn restricting, just how hard it was starting to get to get around. On some level, she knew it would lead to this! And maybe, just maybe, had she taken a few seconds to come up with a plan, she wouldn’t be left like this, tragically stranded, desperate for another cup.

And so this completes the sequence. Ultimately, I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. Since I have this loose head canon for how this company’s pumpkin spice effects a certain type of basic young woman, it was neat to kind of parse that out over the natural progression. 

As I write this now a little after the fact, I think I went from her getting chubby to firmly sort of round & then back to a sloshier blob? But I also like the idea of different girls being effected differently so maybe that’s just her genetics coming into play. 

As I schedule these, the next post should be the entire sequence all in one. I think I’ll include these little write ups as well for each stage, including a new little bit of a post script. 

Hope you’ve enjoyed!
