Up: Game 2  Up: Game 2 Outline

Slight alterations.

The question enters your mind, and you suddenly realize, this IS a cartoon. In all of the cartoons you've seen, toons put on and off weight with little or no effort, the toonier the method, the easier. As such, the weight you've put on will be gone in no time. That and you are still hungry. With no other real excuse, you quickly resume your consumption with new zeal, hardly pausing between ham, cake, and donuts. Fred and Jake shake their heads and go off to their instraments, testing them out for the first time as you test the extent of your imaginations ability to make the perfect spicy chicken.

And, just like a toon, your body swells up faster then any real person ever could, your clothing expanding seemlesslyto remain a perfect fit despite a lack of extra mass to do such with. Then after a few minutes of gorging, it is as if a switch is tripped in your brain, and what was once ravenous hunger becomes merely a mild one. You could eat more, but it feels like a state between hunger and satisfaction. You don't have to eat, but you wouldn't mind a snack... You imagine a plate of cookies and reach up...

And grasp at air. "Huh?" you say, looking up for where chocolate chips should be. Yuo try imagine it again, but nothing happens. Weird, you think, and lift yourself from the sofa, which looks a bit flatter then it did before. "Hey guys," you say, lumbering to the next room where drum beats eminate, "The thought balloon thing isn't working anymore."

The two look up as you enter in, mouths dropping as they see your size. "Wow, you really overdid it," says Fred. You look yourself over, noting for the first time that you've gained quite a bit more mass then you had originally intended. You seem to have gained a few feet in height too, now taller then Jake, your belly easily dwarfing the bear. "No problem," you say, "Toons do this all the time, hand me a belt." Complying, Fred, looks througha draw, until he finds a belt which, despite the fact that no belt in existent is that large, is long enough to fit around you. To take it and tighten it around your center, then jerk it tight, expecting a woosh of air to exit your mouth as you 'squeeze the weight out'. All you feel is a tightening sensation as the wieght is sqeezed into your upper and lower extremities,making you look like a stress toyas your eyes bulge to the size of dinner plates. The belt then explodes as the pressure reverses, returning you to the fully unchanged 'roly'poly' physique.

"Well, tha twas entertaining," says Jake, "I don't think it's going to be as easy as your think. "Wait, I got this," you say, thinking of then next toony way of loosing weight. You stick a thumb in your mouth and blow. Sure enough, you begin swelling up, becoming as round as a ball as your cheeks puff out and your arms and legs swell like balloons. Your body leaves the ground and floats for a few moments as you open your mouth. The air jets from your mouth, seniding you flying around the room like an out of control blimp before you slow and plop back onto the floor, dizzy as heck, but still as fat as ever. "What the heck is going on?" you ask aloud, wonder why the laws of cartoon physics have betrayed you. By all means you should return to your original animation like any other cartoon character. Jake grabs a mirror off the wall and holds it up to you. You look at yourself, a grossly overweight wolf, with bloated cheeks, no neck, and... detailed as if he was always overweight. You look at Fred, recalling that you two looked almost exactly alike except your style of clothing. That's not how cartoons worked, characters had to be different and original to maintain interest. So Fred gets to stay relativly normal, while you have become the 'jolly fat guy'. Aparently Jakeis merely normal for a bear, an overweight wolf... now that was definatly breaking the mold of cartoon standards...
