I think the joy of G.rian is that in the beginning of a weight gain scenario, he absolutely would be embarrassed as hell, feeling all vulnerable with it. You’ve mentioned it before- he’s always trying to present his very specific persona, after all, and this is definitely not part of it- he doesn’t want to come off as soft, but now softness is just part of his body.
I really do think he could come to own it, though. Enjoy the sensation of his growing body. Especially if he knew some of the others were horny for it. “Soft” might not be part of his persona, but bratty and a bit demanding certainly is. I think he should sit himself down on his rapidly spreading ass and enjoy teasing whoever’s around him with little peaks of his body, with the potential promise of getting to touch him if they bring him more snacks. He’d take so much joy in requesting a just a little bit more, keeping their reward just out of reach until either they get sick of it or he’s worked himself up too much to resist letting himself get groped at least a little.
Idk let the boy be round and let him learn to enjoy it. Let him have a soft belly and heavy tits and wide hips and thick thighs and arms and a cute little double chin. He deserves it I think.
"'Soft' might not be a part of his persona, but bratty and demanding certainly is"
THIS. THIS RIGHT HERE. You've NAILED what I had in mind for G.rian with my big feederism H.ermit tier list. As soon as he stops clinging to that paper-thin scrap of a self-image he'd be the most insanely flirty teasing feedee, playing coy and oblivious but also totally incapable of hiding how turned on his own ballooning body makes him.
It's not just the weight itself, though, is it? With G.rian, there's always part of it that's about the attention. The effect his body has on other people affects him too... I think that'd be a really good way of having him "learn to enjoy" being big, like you said— putting on some weight by accident and realising one of his partners (picturing M.umbo but it could be anyone tbh) is extremely into it & thinking "hmm let's see where this leads". Starting to gain more intentionally, giving into cravings he's been trying to suppress for years and it feels so good, lettting himself go like this... He's definitely not into it though. Nooo no no no, this is just... Some temporary fun! It makes his partners happy, and he can always work off whatever junk he doesn't want in his trunk, right?
Yeah, right.
Days turn to weeks, and while G.rian has grown a lot in various exciting ways, some other very important things are steadily shrinking:
His desire to lose that "little" bit of "temporary" weight
The feasibility of losing it and of ever going back to his old size
The belief that he's doing all this just for his partners' reactions with no personal enjoyment whatsoever
His sense of shame (which is partly caused by ↓)
His wardrobe, specifically the number of clothes that cover him decently :3
Anyway you are so so correct, G.rian wg is as much about the journey as it is about the destination— and the destination is that post about how a fat belly and love handles can be a slut waist if you're not a fucking coward, hell yeah 🥰
thinking abt that one mcytredacted mumbo ask where they mentioned people drawing him skinny sets off their feeder instincts and yeah same but. grian.
poor birdy boy is practically wasting away, it's only kind to feed him up a little. and maybe he doesn't question as the portions slowly begin to increase, it's just a friend being kind and bringing him meals and sweets and inviting him over for tea. and if he slowly begins changing over the months, growing a fat chubby belly that sits on his lap and thick thighs that could easily split open trousers, his increased size making it harder to fly, and that lessened activity only helping him grow more as I encourage him to eat more... then it wasn't my fault.
Broke: "gaining weight puts you in a downward spiral because hurr durr being fat is bad and evil!!1!"
Woke: "gaining weight puts you in a literal downward spiral because that's what this chubby bird boy does whenever he tries to fly— but flying's been really hard lately, and maybe he's feeling kinda down about it, and then he has a little snack or two or a baker's dozen to cheer himself up, and ohhh he's gotten heavier again... Don't be sad birdy, you look so so cute like this 🥰"
Anyway your honour I declare this anon to be innocent of all charges because uuuh everyone wants to fatten G.rian up it's the natural response. Case closed 👍
did you seen zed. did you seen his side view when he had the mic - @bellylovercat96
I DIDN'T I WAS AT WORK... I could only watch the intro out of the corner of my eye, Joe's shirt was bright enough to stand out but I didn't catch much else 😭 looking forward to your crazyposting about it later 😊
I DID catch a few seconds of M.artyn's side view though... Idk if it's the sweater but he looks wiiiide omg. Bark bark isn't that right R.en.
Oh wow I haven't logged on for weeks and just as I do now you've answered my ask! I'm happy to hear you want the Z.ed stuff! I tried to keep this short but it ended up being mostly transcripts.
---
(Z.ITS Game Night 5 - 27:16) The Jackbox prompt asks what world record Ze.daph thinks he could break, and his answer is most tacos eaten.
(Same stream - 5:02:31) Sk.izz questions the chances that Z.ed and Ta.ngo would've eaten vastly different amounts of pizza that week, since they've been together all week. Im.pulse: "Have you met him?" Ta.ngo: "The boy can eat."
---
(Season 5, stream #16 - 18:05)
Z.ed: Have you ever eaten a whole chicken before?
Ta.ngo: Not in one sitting, no.
Z.ed: Interesting.
Ta.ngo: How about you?
Z.ed: I think I might've actually. [...] I might've bought a whole cooked roasted chicken before and, just sat in the car and ate it.
---
(Season 5, stream #17 - 1:52:56) Z.ed talks about how hungry he is and does a voice to mimic his stomach yelling at him. Then he tells chat that next time he feels it rumble he'll push his belly to the mic so they can hear it too.
(Slightly later - 1:55:51)
Z.ed: Okay wow man, my stomach...
Ta.ngo: (snickers) You gonna make it?
Z.ed: It's chatting! Might need to...
(He starts to stand up then changes his mind.)
Z.ed: Ah, no, it's too much. It's too awkward to show my belly to the mic.
Ta.ngo: (laughs) I like how that was a consideration though.
Z.ed: I thought about it, it was close! And then I though, no, I will look...
Ta.ngo: So hungry you need to see my stomach right now.
Z.ed: No, you need to hear it! I was gonna like push the microphone into my belly.
---
(Season 5, stream #18 - 18:23)
Z.ed: This belly's big, and it needs to go down, especially for all the food I'm gonna eat in America, so...
Ta.ngo: Yeah, I already told him I'm gonna get him nice and fat here.
Z.ed: I'm gonna be, oh. You're just gonna wait and see, there's gonna be a timelapse over the two weeks and it's just gonna be like... (Then he literally mimics himself puffing up like a balloon, rapid style. I haven't recovered.)
---
(Diversity 3, stream #3 - 2:42:00) Jack asks how many nuggets Z.edaph and Ta.ngo think they could eat in one sitting.
Ta.ngo: I could eat a lot of nugs.
Z.ed: We talking, McDonald's chicken nug?
Jack: Yeah.
Z.ed: I'd say... I've eaten 40 in one go before so, at least 40.
Jack: Solid. Solid effort.
---
(1st Z.ITS + Her.mits olympics stream - 47:47) Ta.ngo cheers for Ze.daph and calls him pinky. Z.ed misunderstand it as piggy and does a very deadpan "oink oink."
(Later, 1:04:29)
Z.ed (trying to dodge arrows): I feel wider than I should be.
Cl.eo: The cake, you need to put down the cake sometime.
Z.ed (laughing): It's true.
Sk.izz (laughing): Maybe Ta.ngo was calling you piggy.
---
During the Wheel of Misf.ortune stream, there's a lot of belly holding and moaning starting around 2:40:35, but mainly because he (Ta.ngo too) was feeling ill from the nasty/challenge food they'd eaten.
Me, opening the ask expecting three or four moments and being met with this absolute Zedbuffet: Hey!— hOLY MOLY YOU'RE HUGE!!
Seriously, what a treat! Sticking my reactions to my favourite stuff on this list (which is most of it, let's be real) below a readmore for scrolling's sake... But wow, what's clear is that I should be watching Z.ed's streams WAY more omg.
-----
Oh this... Ough. This one isn't so much abt the belly kink stuff, it's the casual way Imp & T.ango talk about him that drives me crazy. I've watched bits and pieces of those old ZITS irl streams and I LOVE when they acknowledge that Zed is younger and (by virtue of not being American) so different and interesting to the other 3... So this teasing slightly admiring maybe-proud "the boy can eat" comment from T.ango is just making me think of the ITS meeting their online British buddy irl for the first time and all 3 having the same exact thought of "oh my god he's adorable we are going to spoil him so good for the entire duration of his stay".
GOD I wish that was me I mean what who said that 😳 uuuh on with the list
-----
TUMMY VOICE TUMMY VOICE PERSONIFIED TUMMY THAT "TALKS" AND YOU TALK BACK 💥👏🔥 oh YES this is good!!! Insane mental image for you to bring up unprompted and not deliver on, Z.ed... Also, people are always saying stuff like "oh my streamer's so hot, I would kill to be under their desk servicing them or cockwarming while they edit" etc etc. Well now I'M thinking about below-the-desk belly rubs during an all-day subathon, soothing them while they wait for their food delivery, distracting them from the hunger pangs with soft squeezes and kisses, maybe play with their belly button a little and hear them choke down a gasp... Though it's hard to hear anything over the roar of their empty stomach so close to your head... Hgfjgjdhshfh we are straying away from the Zedask I am so sorry. Next moment!!
-----
HELLO WHAT THE FUCKKKK 💥😳🫠
I... Man. I don't even have to say anything. Z.edango feederis— hey keyboard why are you recommending emojis while I'm typing thIS LMAO WHAT IS THAAAT
Well if the emoji laboratory says so it MUST be true lol
No but seriously this is SUCH a moment. Holy shit. "This belly's big" "I'm gonna get him nice and fat" the fucking inflation-esque timelapse, they are CRAZY and so am I 🤤
-----
Something that's emerging through all these moments is that Z.ed is very candid about being a big guy who eats a lot, and I LOVE it. The casual tone throughout is just so refreshing compared to the ambient shame that other people's moments *cough* R.en and I.mpulse *cough* seem to be soaked in.
Listen I do enjoy the whole "ohh I'm so NAUGHTY, succumbing to these tasty temptations and being pUNISHED for it with a body that shows just how BAD I've been~ >.<" spin on wg. But usually, in your day-to-day life you're just A Fat Guy Who Likes Being Fat! And it gets exhausting, having to mix up this cocktail of catholic guilt and sexified D/s diet culture every time you start to enjoy being a glutton in a slutty way... So, yeah. Z.ed based as hell, I hope he holds his hand out to I.mpulse saying let's unlearn fatphobia together 🥰
-----
Pigplay isn't really my thing, but Z.ed's already associated with one farm animal and the colour pink so it's a very very logical leap to make. Do you think about T.ango calling you "Piggy" often, Z.ed? Bit of a Freudian slip in that mishearing there, perhaps? Z.ed's brought back his gameshow for HC season 10 and all 4 ZITS are on the server, so maybe it's time for a rebrand!
Is That Pig Drooling At Me, the game where the pig is sitting on a slowly-rotating piston, and whoever he's facing when the wool blocks drop* gets to feed him! First person to have an empty plate wins, after which they all retreat to a bed where Piggy can enjoy belly rubs from the winner and comfortably pass out from a food coma... But only after finishing the other two plates, of course 🥰
*the usual up-down piston movement wasn't too kind to an overfilled stomach. Piggy's pained moans were nice, as was the sight of his fat jiggling and bouncing every time the piston extended... but not worth the show's runtime being cut in half due to decidedly unsexy nausea.

Aghhhfbdjsn everything is so good!! Thank you so much for sharing these :3
Grian in the tight pants really needs some stuffing until they cant close anymore
This was sent around the time of the charity stream, I think! I can't quite recall a specific irl G.rian outfit other than the P.ermitmaster one, but being the only non-streaming participant must have been pretty relaxing, managerial tasks aside.
No live audience to notice or comment on how many snack breaks he's taking, or how said snacks impact the fit of his clothes... Unfortunately, top experts in everybody else's chats have been keeping an eye on him all weekend: tallying every discreet yet desperate tug on the hem of his shirt, every surreptitious adjustment of belt and buttons and piecing it all into a timeline of Too Many Treats To Count 😊
Hey you know how some hermits have the whole ocean theme this season? Why dont i see any of them as seals ever.
Cute fat little bastards.
You know seals belly slap to attract a mate? Its very good for them to be fat and round, and the fatter the seal are, the more competent.
Also, their eyes just remind me of grian, and you can easily turn this into force-feeding him. Hes so thin, not built like a real seal. Maybe he just needs someone to fatten him up, yeah?
👁️👁️ oh my GOD you're so right... I love the mental image of seal G.rian during his fisherman era, lounging on his dock waiting for that stupid mending book to bite while mindlessly snacking on all those worthless non-treasure catches (like a stereotypical heartbroken person eating ice cream straight from the tub lol)
It's not uncommon for G's fishing sessions to end with him moaning and complaining on the ground. Lately though, that's been less due to despair at ever getting that book, and more to do with him suddenly (and painfully) realizing how many fish he's caught and unthinkingly eaten... Ough. Maybe that belly slap strategy also works to attract belly rubs? 😊
x.B would also perfect for this given his base this season, but I'm just too attached to him as either a guardian or orca hybrid... Could seal M.umbo be a thing? He's big, has that dark suit and the mustache, that feels like it could go somewh—
No wait. Stop everything.
I was looking up seal species to see if i could match a blorbo to one, and I just realised.
THERE'S SEALS IN NEWFOUNDLAND.
SEAL G.EM! Selkie G.em, even!! She'd be so so fat because G.em is Great at being a seal, obviously, and then when she's on land she can just shrug off that form and look like a regular human with nothing weird going on! Except maybe she's a little Too Great, and soon that weight starts to show on her landlubber form too... 🤤
Thankyou for the ask, there is much food for thought in there :3
You tags about g.Rian fighting a long hard battle and losing on that mcyt redacted post about needing him to be fat af and embarrassed about it sent my mind on such a journey.
I am imagining gr.umbo in an open relationship. During season nine when mu.mbo was away for whatever reason you headcanon his character to have been missing for most the season gr.ian was opening his legs to anyone willing to give him any of the attention he’s so desperately missing.
Another thing he was willing to open a lot was his mouth. If started with him comfort eating because he was missing mumbo and before long he had a little bit of a gut poking out. He cut himself off then and there, promising himself to return to his golden carrot based diet so he can lose the extra pounds.
Enter con.vex. The two of them are married but always happy to include a third and if there is one thing vex love it’s their cake. And they have noticed how gr.ian has been tugging on his sweater to hide that hint of belly and they want more.
It doesn’t start at stuffing. It starts with con.vex insisting that they wine and dine gr.ian before taking him to bed. Gradually portions get bigger, they add more courses. Vexes need to eat so much more than other species, but before long they have gr.ian giving it his best shot to keep up
Then comes the morning-after breakfasts and before long eggs and toast have turned into cheesy omelettes, pancakes drenched in syrup, coffee that’s more cream and sugar than anything else, and other spreads to make sure the calories gr.ian might have burned while they were fucking get replaced
Gr,ian is still trying to lose the extra pounds that are rapidly piling on but at the same time some part of him knows. He loves this. He loves the way his stomach dips beneath his prodding fingers, loves the way another chin is replacing his jawline, loves how he can feel his newly acquired ass jiggle as he walks. It’s wrong and he shouldn’t want it… but one more night can’t hurt, right?
Flash forward to Mu.mbo coming home and Gr.ian realises that oh yes it can. It’s like he’s seeing himself for the first time in months. Seeing the pile of blubber he’s turned into. The dieting on his convex-free days has only made it worse! When he was trying to make himself lose weight by eating as little as he could, he was only working up more of an appetite for for the calorie dense foods c.ub and sc.ar were offering him.
He spends the last bit of denial he has left convincing himself that if he wears a chunky sweater and a pair of tight pants (that used to be big on him!) then he can probably fool mum.bo long enough to lay off the extra pounds.
So their reunion goes like this: gr.ian stuffed into clothes that are far too small for his current size, moving as little as possible because he’s certain the button on his pants is going to pop any minute with how much it’s digging into his big fat belly, beet red with embarrassment while mu.mbo gives him an appraising look and walks up to him to poke his gut. Grian sucks it in just in time but even so Mumbo’s long finger still sinks into his blubbery flesh.
“That wasn’t there when I left” he says matter of factly. There is an edge of something familiar there. Mu.mbo is leaning into his dom persona, a persona that has always been borderline sadistic. “Let ourselves go, did we?”
And that is when he breaks. Gr.ian is so utterly fat and so utterly humiliated and most importantly he is so incredibly hard right now
“Don’t know what you mean” he still denies, feeling like the least fuckable most horny person to ever exist. He keeps his belly sucked in as much as possible while mu.mbo just stares at him, waiting for him to let go and let mu.mbo how large he’s become all because he was being needy and pathetic without his boyfriends attention.
The following day mu.mbo makes sure to send c.ub and sc.ar a message thanking them for their efforts
Apparently I've just had this absolute feast of a basically-fic sitting, languishing, nay, wasting away in my askbox. For MONTHS! Extremely rude of me not to share it before now... Anon if you're still out there I so badly hope you have an AO3 or a blog of your own 🥺
Much like a certain greedy birdy, I'm about to become so needy and pathetic looking for more quality stuff like this aaaaa 😊
Also I think this is the post I left tags on that this ask is referencing? Idk I talk a lot about G.rian & how I enjoy his emotional state regarding weight gain almost as much as the weight itself hehe :3
The way j.oel can never say no to l.izzie lends itself perfectly to feedism
( tangent: this is especially since she’s always been very vocal in the past about liking him chubby. she explained once his contact in her phone is a hamster 🐹 because it has chubby cheeks like him )
it starts off small. she’s always shown her affection to j.oel through gifts, so he doesn’t think much of it when l.izzies gifts start becoming mostly food. he makes sure to eat everything she gives her, even if the taste isn’t exactly to his liking. l.izzie always puts so much thoughts into her little gifts, so it would be a shame to not eat them, right? ^^
but it starts becoming more. she regularly appears with more substantial foods, even sometimes a whole cake.
he’s a little more hesitant about this. he knows eating everything l.izzie would be terrible for his weight (especially since the previous, lighter gifts already weren’t great for his waistline) but it’s L.izzie. it’s his wife. he can’t disappoint her. so, j.oel obediently finishes his plate every time. no matter how full he is, or how it causes the contents of his stomach to violently churn. at least l.izzies always there to help soothe his tummy in the aftermath.
long term though? his weight gets out of control. he tries his best to fight it, going to the gym as much as he can, but no matter what he does his gut just doesn’t disappear. he tries softly suggesting to l.izzie to maybe bring him a little less. she does for a little bit, but eventually his plate is back to overflowing again.
the worst part is that j.oel’s appetite starts to match his gluttony. his stomach impatiently growls when he sees l.izzie because he associates her so much with food.
they love each other so much and it shows sososo much on j.oel’s waistline <3
Aaaaaa that last bit is so good!... It's that line about the quickest way to a person's heart being their stomach, but reversed: "you already have my heart and it's full of love for you, so I trust you to fill the rest of me however you like" 🥰, incredible dynamic that I'm definitely not jealous of oh my GOD um anyway. :3
I'm also incredibly normal about Joel becoming conditioned to associate the sight of his wife with food & being stuffed, stomach growls and all... OUGH. If I had a nickel for every time Joel S.mallishbeans has been given some sort of Pavlov reaction on my blog, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's probably a sign that I should do it more because wow am I into it hgshfhdj 🤤
I don't know all that much about J.izzie but reading this definitely makes me want to know more! Please PLEASE anon, if you have these clips of Lizzie stating that she prefers chubby Joel or any other video / stream moments you'd like to share, plz do 🥺
