Thinking about space / sci-fi and messing...
A cute, plump space pilot, so nervous about his first time at the controls that he shoots hot mush into his special absorbent pants. The ship's robots bend him over and spray him dry, but he's crying so hard he doesn't hear the team comforting him.
A tough commander on an intergalactic battleship, struck down with space-flu during a mission. He soldiers on, gritting his teeth and biting his lip, but it keeps on coming, and soon his precious uniform is stained and stinking.
An astronaut landing on the moon only to realise the rehydrated tacos they ate on the ship are doing a number on their bowels; at their first step it unleashes, ballooning out their suit, and they have to call for backup to air out the smell.
I did some research for this one lol.
First of all, love the idea of a machine being the one to clean up the mess. There’s no comfort, just mechanical movements as someone is humiliatingly scrubbed down and cleaned up at their lowest. They still feel terrible and they’re also being spread by the ships cleaning system. They try to wiggle away as the wet wipes being used sting their rim, but they’re held fast by cold, metal claws. They cry silently as their belly lets out some warning rumbles, they might be stuck like this for a while
It turns out that space diapers are a thing! So I love the idea of someone trying to tough out an illness, but they’re having such violent shits that it overloads the diaper they have in their suit. These things are supposed to be crazy absorbent, and pull away moisture from the body to reduce discomfort. So there would have to be a craaazy amount spilling out of someone for it to cause a leak. Maybe it happens in one big rush of chunky liquid, too fast for the absorbent material to catch. Or maybe it’s small nuggets and bursts of liquid here and there that cause it to overflow. Either way you have to be feeling pretty nasty to shit that much
I have some ideas of my own as well >:):
-Toilets in space look like they use vacuums to operate, so suction pulls waste away from you and keeps things from floating around. That has to feel so weird. If you’re super constipated does the suction help you and kinda like, pull it out? Imagine an astronaut has been trying to hold for their entire trip (that seems to be the general goal from what I’ve read). They have a ridiculous amount of waste in them, and since the body only has its own peristalsis to rely on without gravity, it’s likely a while before they feel the need to go. Even when they do, they still try to hold on since using the bathroom up there is so awkward. There’s a dark brown lump sitting riiight at the edge of their sphincter, occasional twitches of discomfort bringing it to a turtlehead. They feel so stuffed and sluggish that they eventually resign themselves to use the odd toilet. The suction they feel when their ass meets the seat makes them yelp. They can’t help the heady moan that leaves their mouth as they feel the bizarre sensation of a thick log being almost sucked out of them. It feels like it’s being pulled straight from their intestines. They leave the bathroom feeling quite flustered and confused. Maybe they continue to hold it as long as they can on future trips, they tell themselves that it’s what everyone there does! It has nothing to do with how good the toilet pulling at their rim feels, or how blissfully empty they fell afterwards.
-adding on to that, what about someone with a sick tummy on the same toilet. The suction would probably start to hurt after a while! Pulling and tugging at their swollen rim while they wait for another round of mush to explode out of them. They cry out and wiggle at the sensation, but the leg bands that keep them secured to the toilet hold them fast. There’s not much they go do but snivel and fart as they wait to feel better, poor guy :((
-Back on the space diaper thing. What if you catch a stomach bug in space? I imagine the astronaut would do their best to remain as unassuming as possible. But as they leave for a long spacewalk, they notice their stomach hurts. It feels a little swollen against their suit. They assume it’s just the change in diet and tries to ignore it. But eventually they’re in a position where they have to force out these nasty waves of hot liquid into their suit. They try to be as discreet as possible. Their farts don’t really make a sound, thank god, but they bubble horribly against the mess in their pants. Another round of cramping guts bring them to their knees, and they have to quietly admit to their coworker that they think they’re sick.
-Last one! Apparently samples of waste will be bought back from space for testing. Also, before we had the toilet we do now using the bathroom in space was rough. From what I saw, what was used was essentially a tight pair of pants with a condom like tube in the back. Imagine some poor astronaut taking a shameful shit in one of these, pushing as hard as they can to get it over with. They tie it up, grimacing at the warm feel of their waste trying to float out of the bag. It is then shamefully handed over to scientists at home. They try not to blush as they give them a bag of their own waste.
I have included some sourced below if anyone is interested lol, thank you so much for the ask! This one was fun ☺️
Also I apologize if the writing is a little rushed. I wrote this earlier but the website crashed when I tried to upload it, so I had to re write the whole thing ;-;
