I was lucky enough to get a sketch request from Bodbloat's subscriber stream, and I couldn't help but put a story to it. Azar meets a lot of interesting people in his travels, but he can't help but admire Bodbloat's PUMPZ laboratories inventions. Even if they do lead to results with the white dragon ending up very, very round.
Art by the amazing
Of all places of science Azar had visited in recent years, the large, gray, and rather monolithic building in front of him now seemed the most mysterious. Azar knew little about the facility, but he had been contacted by the founder to come in and take a look at some of their inventions to offer some insight, see a demonstration, and give a few pointers if he felt like it. Being a dragon that thrived on creating and tinkering with new inventions, Azar couldn't say no to the prospect. However, he did have to wonder on what professional level the facility was on considering his invitation and directions to the place was sent to him via postcard.
"Come to PUMPZ Labs! We aim to expand horizons!" the postcard's saying went, with a picture of the large building on it. With a shrug, the white dragon stepped forward and pressed a red button to alert whoever was inside that he was here. The metal doors opened up and Azar was able to step inside.
The first thing he noticed was that the entrance way, and what appeared beyond looked more than large enough to accomodate a feral dragon of his size. And that in itself was very impressive. The inside was about as "science lab" as one could get. The floors and walls looked various shades of white and light gray, giving off a very sterile look. EVerything was also very neatly organized, giving the dragon more confidence in the professionalism of PUMPZ.
The reception desk at the center of the lobby was empty, but Azar soon heard footsteps coming down the hall from behind the desk. Soon a red, wingless, anthro dragon wearing a white labcoat stepped out and hurried forward to meet Azar. "Ah! You must be Sir Azarosna Astrogaze! I am Steve BodBloat and I must say it's a pleasure to meet you!" he said, smiling brightly as he put a hand out. Azar did his best to shake the hand with his paw before smiling and nodding back.
"I am indeed. I'm glad to hear my reputation has spread even this far," Azar said.
"There aren't many who are as interested in creating inventions just for the fun of it. Even less so are feral dragons such as yourself. Something like that is bound to draw plenty of attention from even far reaches such as out here at PUMPZ. And it is your knowledge of inventions and creativity with them that made me want to invite you out here to see our fine facility here," Steve explained. He then turned and motioned for Azar to follow him farther into the building.
"You see, here at PUMPZ we specialize in creating all manner of new things. From biological to technological, all with the intents and purposes of both scientific progress, and entertainment for the home," he explained. As Azar followed, he started to notice that the hallways they were heading down were not only tall enough for him to stand comfortably, but they were also far wider than he would have expected. At least three dragons of his size could have walked side by side comfortably through the lab hallways. "Do you get feral dragons such as myself very often here?" he asked.
"Once in a while, yes. But we tend to get others of considerable size coming through these halls," Bodbloat said as he stopped at the large doorway to one of the labs. Peering through the window, it looked like a combination of a lab and a testing room. "Here's the device I wanted to show you today. To help give you a taste of what kinds of products we work on. Please, come in," he said, letting the white dragon pass by before shutting the door behind him. As Azar took a seat in the middle of the room, Steve walked over to the table and grabbed what appeared to be a pair of gluves with odd metal gauntlets attatched to them. Some sort of wiring ran from the back hand part of the glove to the gauntlet, and there were a few mechanical parts attatched to the guantlet Azar didn't quite recognize.
"This, my fellow inventor, is a device I created that you might find an interest in. I know you work primarily with steam-powered engines and the like, and this device might assist you in your works. You see, steam must come from water. But water is not always able to be controlled easily. You have to divert flows to your steam generators, or build the generators right at the water source. I made these to try and direct the flow and control of water as the user sees fit. Let me show you," he said, removing his lab coat and putting on the gloves. Steve then walked over to the far wall and opened a panel, turning a valve before pulling out a long green hose and stretching it back to the middle of the room. The hose sputtered a bit before fresh water started to flow from it's end, pooling a bit before running towards a drain in the center of the room.
Azar couldn't deny that he was excited to see this invention in action. If it worked how Bod made it sound and how Azar imagined, the possibilities were endless and could help advance the white dragon's own work. Steve Bodbloat seemed to catch the interested look in Azar's eye and smiled. "Alright, let me show you what these can do," he said as he flipped a switch on each gauntlet. A very faint hum came from the gloves as Bod pointed them at the water pooling on the floor.
Without warning, Bod thrust his arms up and the water on the floor leaped into the air before pooling in one large water bubble in the air. Bod moved his arms in circular motions, as though he was moving them on opposite sides of an invisible sphere. "The devices in the gloves act as a sort of magnet for water. But I can control the power of the magnet so the water doesn't come up and splash right onto the gloves, and the fields so that the water is focused into certain areas," he explained as he pulled his arms apart and the water became more streamlined.
"This is fascinating! I can't even begin to tell you how much a device like this would help in my work! Even just small projects where I could have the water right on hand to convert into steam without needing an entire generator for it would be an enormous help!" Azar said excitedly, the frills at the side of his head fanning out.
"I thought you would like this. It is still a prototype though, so it needs some tweaks and fixes here and there. But I'd be happy to work with you on getting a final product out for use. And it even has the ability to function as a weapon should you wish to go that direction for it. Nonlethal of course, if you wish it to be so," Bod said as he let the water swirl around him like some sort of long, clear ribbon.
"Oh? How does it do that?" Azar asked. He couldn't really see how smacking someone with water would work as a good defensive or offensive weapon. Unfortunately, Azar didn't notice the mischevious smirk on Steve until it was too late.
"Like this!" the red dragon said excitedly before thrusting one hand forward. The water he had collected in the air surged forward and narrowed, thrusting its way right into Azar's open maw. Before Azar could react, Bod began using his free hand to pull more water out of the hose and connect that trail of water to the mass that was already in Azar's maw. Then with one push of his hands, Azar's eyes widened as he felt he water rapidly flowing down his throat and into his stomach.
The whole thing happened within seconds, Azar was caught off guard by the "attack" and stumbled forward. When he got his bearings he tried to pull away from the stream of water starting to fill him, but Steve merely moved his arms in complex motions to make the water stay right in the white dragon's maw. Azar even tried to simply shut his mouth, but the water pushed back with even more force thanks to the red dragon's control over it, keeping the white drake's maw wide open for more and more water.
Azar let out a groan as he felt his belly filling more and more with water. Looking down at his middle, his eyes widened when he saw that his slim stomach now bulged out rounded and swelling. Every second that passed allowed the dragon to see his belly bloat up another inch. Steve was turning his belly into one big water balloon!
Steve Bodbloat knew that Azar wasn't going to take the sudden inflation well. But he did promise the dragon a full presentation of the abilities of the water manipulation gloves. And besides, Azar needed to learn why the place was called PUMPZ anyways. As such, the red dragon was easily ready for when Azar lunged forward and tried to swipe a paw at him, attempting to disrupt the constant flow. Steve simply jumped back out of the way and doubled the flow of water going into Azar.
Azar's belly now hung lower than his knees, pushing out at his sides to give him a far more rounded appearance. It sloshed and wobbled with his movement as he tried to get back on his feet after his failed swing at Steve. With a muffled, gurgled growl, he lunged again. Once more the anthro dragon easily sidestepped him, giving a chuckle at the dragon's efforts. "Like I said! A good non-lethal weapon! Focuses on immoblizing a target to leave them harmless," Bodbloat explained as he moved back to Azar's front.
After the second strike against Steve, Azar was shocked to find that he could get back up. He was stuck on his belly now, which pressed firmly against the ground and was lifting the feral dragon higher off the ground. Enough so that his paws could only barely scratch the white-tiled floors. He struggled to reach the ground, but every second that past made him more and more immobile.
It had only been five minutes of being filled with water, but the director of PUMPZ had completely immobilized the large feral dragon he had invited over. Azar's belly was so large that another dragon of Azar's size (uninflated of course) could have fit inside. The tough belly plates that made up the white dragon's underside were separated to acomadate the dragon's increased girthy at his middle, giving his belly more room. This of course left the sensitive scales between exposed as Azar sloshed and wobbled helplessly atop his belly mattress.
Once Azar looked sufficiently "defeated", Steve finally stopped the flow. "And there you have it! Useful for both utility and defense!" he stated proudly before turning off the gloves and taking them off to put aside on the table.
Azar had to spit out the extra water that was still in his mouth and throat before he could even speak. "What was that?! You... you inflated me like some sort of water balloon!" he roared out, though his anger was interrupted by him having to sputter out some more water.
"Well, it was clear to me that you didn't know much about PUMPZ when you arrived, so I thought it best to show you personally what kinds of things we test here. We 'expand' many kinds of horizons here Sir Astrogaze. And today it looks like your belly has met that expansion admirably," he said as he started to walk towards the exit.
"Wh-where are you going?!" the white dragon sputtered out, getting the last of the water out of his maw. "Fix me! You can't just leave me like this!"
Steve couldn't help but chuckle. He always loved the reactions of those who had been inflated for their first time at PUMPZ. "Well, the truth is I can't really get that water out of you. Not with those gloves anyways. Like I said, it's a prototype. It only works on water if there's no barrier between the water and the gloves. Right now, your big scaly belly is the barrier, so I can't affect the water in you," he said.
"But... but... you can't..."
"Don't worry, I invited you here and I wouldn't dream of leaving you stuck in here. Though you really shouldn't worry so much. It is only water after all. It'll evaporate or be absorbed into your body after a few days. Though with how big you are now, it might take a week or more. But there shouldn't be any permanent effects! I hope," he said as he thought about Azar's situation a bit more. "But in any case, I'll get one of the interns to roll you back outside. We'll put you somewhere you can get plenty of sun and warmth while waiting to get your mobility back. Thank you for coming to visit and I hope you'll come do business with us again here at PUMPZ!" Steve Bodbloat said before walking off into the halls, whistling to himself.

Thanks! Felt the picture deserved a fun quick story so I wrote this up as I was posting the commission.
You and I can both come back and visit PUMPZ. Despite this water-filled experience, my own curiosity about what else they've created in there is too much to keep me away. I'll be back!

I read the story... but... before I have the will to read it... I want you to HEAR someones words... and think of pirating UNDERTALE... just to show "Mr. Funny Fox" How much you never gave up, in private, okay This information must be a secret.... Just like "Facts about buttercups" or why "snail pie" is denied not remembering your name...
