Suggest-A-Story, 2024
🕑 Added 2024-08-18 17:53:37 +0000 UTCTo preface this (rather long) post with a reminder: the winner of this story poll will be lumped in with my commission slate, opening up late this month or early September when I finish my final outstanding commission.
I will make a post here and on DeviantArt when such a time occurs. If you would like to look over my commission dos and don'ts, please read them here.
With that out of the way, let's get onto the good stuff!
---
Last month, I made this post asking my readers what stories they wanted me to write about. As my longtime readers know, I like to do little "games" and exclusives for y'all here. I've always done what I can to make these feel like events, but I think only Mix and Match has largely benefited from this in the past.
I would like to change that.
When I asked for prompts, y'all didn't disappoint! I have taken three of my favorites and expanded them into the synopses listed below. All three of the stories listed are in line with ideas that I have been wanting to write for quite some time now, and all of them work to sort of expand (lol) on previous works. Whether you're a longtime reader or if you're literally just here for the games, I think that each and every one of them will have something to offer you.
There will be two poll links at the very bottom of this post. One for $3-$5 members, and one for $7.50+ members for their extra vote.
Please read all synopses carefully, and please keep in mind that the polls will close August 31st, at 11:59pm.
As always, thank you for your continued readership, patronage, and support. I want to take the time to remind you that, without y'all, I don't get to do fun stuff like this. I really hope that you all enjoy any of the potential stories offered here, and look forward to getting to write for all of you :)
The Many Lives of Tara [BBWs/SSBBWs/Multiverse]—
Tara West, Haley’s older sister from the Life of Haley series, was never supposed to be the “main character”.
While working at DynaCorp, Tara stumbles out of a cubicle and into the Research & Development lab, where she comes across something that some of you Daven’s Port readers might recognize… it’s the Machine that Goes Boop Boop! In order to compete with Yeng’s patented What If? Machine, DynaCorp has accidentally created a machine that lets you view, visit, and voyeur into other dimensions! How could Tara not take it for a test drive?
But something’s… off… about these other worlds and other lives of Tara.
Whether she stays or goes in Charleston, no matter who she lives with or what job she takes, the Tara Wests teeming the multiverse all seem to get really, really fat. She could be slumming it back in Spartanburg with her mom or living the high life as a pampered pig in Hilton Head, but even in all these realities where she just works in an office the various Taras out there seem to all get fat.
Really, really fat.
And for some reason, this stupid thing won’t send her home! Now she’s stuck in the multiverse, drifting across space and time! Is she literally the last skinny Tara out there? Is there any hope for out here in this Crisis of Infinitely Expanding Waistlines?!

Curium’s Table [XWG/Fat Society/Sci-Fi]—
The Metaleans made contact with the people of Earth a long, long time ago. (Way back in Stranded, remember?)
Ever since these advanced and especially antennaed aliens re-established contact with a certain blue backwater marble, things have slowly been changing. The reintroduction of actual food over “sustenance pills” to the galaxy at large seems to have gone over well (though not without consequences) and the foreign culture fetish of things like streaming, video games, and music are all a riot even this far out in space!
It should not be surprising, then, that as the cultures become increasingly homogenized that the Metaleans would become fascinated by the ever-present “Earthcore” idea that an AI to do all the mundane tasks around their world would actually be pretty useful!
Scientist Iridia Curium looks forward to retiring in an age of introspection and self-growth that will surely follow now that she has developed what many Metaleans are hailing as the biggest boon of their culture—"The Table” is an AI that compiles the best of the best of all Earth Culture and tailors the experience to each individual user for a maximized and meaningful entertainment experience!
Surely the Metaleans can be entrusted to use this innovation responsibly, and not simply devolve into sloth and passive consumption… right?

Whatever Happened to Hannah Hammond? [SSBBW/BBWs/Suspense]—
The rich do not have to work.
With the resources provided to them by means of generational wealth and via the exploitation of those below them, there is a small caste of would-be royalty that live lavish lives while the smallfolk—while you—starve beneath their feet. Even with shoddy investments and semi-competent money-men, most of them will make more in a day than you will make in a year.
Luckily, not knowing the value of a dollar works both ways, and the new girl Daisy Gattz is well aware that the conspicuous consumption of her new boss is a feature, not a bug.
As an heiress to one of the most ubiquitous hotel chains in the world, Hannah Hammond has never had to work a day in her life. She has only ever had access to the finest schools, she has only ever been handed the cushiest jobs, and she has always had the option of spending each and every day in abject decadence. And at a horribly hedonistic eleven hundred and eleven pounds, Hannah Hammond spends her days eating, fucking, and corrupting those around her with much the same.
But there’s a story there—if the old photos are to be believed, Hannah Hammond was not always the beast that laid bare before her. Or has she always been like this, and simply stopped hiding?
Join the investigative efforts of the one person in Hannah Hammond’s townhouse whose job it is to keep her wits about her, and explore the complicated answer to the titular question—“Whatever Happened to Hannah Hammond?”
