NEPS Berry best officer! September Monthly Fanart 2024 Winner 1st Place. (Patreon)

Zhu Yuan strolled through the sleek, high-tech corridors of the NEPS headquarters, her confidence exuding as she sipped on her protein shake. As a PUBSEC officer, Zhu Yuan carried an air of authority that left many in awe, especially a shy, chubby office worker named Mei Ling. Mei had admired Zhu Yuan from afar for months, her heart skipping a beat whenever Zhu walked by. But every time she tried to approach, her nerves got the best of her.

One afternoon, as Mei sat at her desk overthinking her every interaction with Zhu, a woman with sharp features and an air of mystery approached her. Dressed in a slightly unbuttoned, fitted office blouse that accentuated her curves and a pencil skirt, the woman looked oddly out of place yet somehow perfectly blended into the NEPS environment. Her wavy black hair framed her sly smile as she placed a small vial of shimmering liquid on Mei’s desk.

“She will be yours~” the woman purred, her voice dripping with mischief. Before Mei could stammer out a question, the woman strutted away, her heels clicking rhythmically against the tiled floor.

Mei stared at the vial, her curiosity piqued. Desperation and intrigue overtook her caution. Clutching the vial, Mei thought of a plan: she’d mix it into Zhu Yuan’s favorite milkshake and use it as an excuse to strike up a conversation.

Later that day, Zhu Yuan, engrossed in her post-patrol routine, found a milkshake waiting for her in the break room. A small note attached read, “For you, Zhu ❤.” Intrigued and flattered, Zhu sipped the drink, her taste buds appreciating the creamy, sweet concoction. However, moments later, her expression shifted. Her face puffed slightly, and her body began to feel unusually tight.

“Hmm? What’s… going on?” Zhu mumbled as her cheeks began to swell like small balloons.

From her desk, Mei watched in horror and fascination as Zhu’s body started to expand. Her uniform strained audibly, the seams creaking under the pressure. Zhu’s thighs rounded out, her hips widened, and her jacket stretched until it was comically taut. Her arms puffed out like overstuffed pillows, and her legs swelled to the size of industrial barrels. Mei's heart raced as Zhu’s backside grew, dominating the room. The NEPS insignia on her pants stretched hilariously as her bottom inflated into a blueberry-like sphere.

Zhu tried to call for help, but her cheeks had puffed so much that all she could manage were muffled sounds. “Mmmph! Mmmph!” Her body wobbled, barely contained in the room. Desks and chairs were pushed aside by her sheer size.

Panicking yet entranced, Mei rushed in to help. But as Zhu's inflation reached its peak, Mei tripped, landing face-first into Zhu's now massive, round backside. Squished beneath the blueberry-shaped officer, Mei could barely move but couldn’t help laughing nervously. “W-Worth it,” she muttered to herself, her cheeks flushed.

Meanwhile, Zhu, balancing precariously on her inflated form, shot Mei a flustered yet annoyed glance. “Mmmmph!!” Her muffled protest only added to the absurdity.

Before long, the mysterious "mouse" woman reappeared, this time casually leaning against the doorframe, adjusting her glasses with a smirk. “Oh my, I didn’t think she’d turn out this… plump,” she mused, jotting down notes on a clipboard. “Perfect for field testing.”

Mei, still pinned under Zhu’s voluminous rear, yelled out, “Field testing?! What did you do to her?!”

“Oh, nothing too serious,” the woman replied nonchalantly, her unbuttoned blouse shifting slightly as she shrugged. “It’s a prototype… Let’s call it the Berry Serum. I think it suits her.”

As Zhu wobbled and tried to adjust to her new form, the "mouse" woman sauntered closer, tapping her pen against the side of the milkshake cup. “You should be proud, Mei. Not only is she all yours now, but she’s also… let’s say… one-of-a-kind.”

Mei groaned, still wedged beneath Zhu. “This… isn’t exactly how I pictured confessing my feelings.”

Meanwhile, Zhu could only huff in frustration, her puffy cheeks reddening as she glared at Mei. But deep down, a small part of her was flattered… maybe.

The day ended with Mei finally summoning the courage to talk to Zhu—albeit under bizarre circumstances. Whether Zhu would forgive her for the milkshake fiasco was another matter entirely.
