Maximum Softness
A new “body positivity” program promises complete self-acceptance. What it actually delivers is rapid, unstoppable weight gain that pushes a woman far beyond BBW into true SSBBW territory. Her body becomes enormous and soft while her mind grows calm, hungry, and content to keep expanding.
Play as
A burnt-out graphic designer and lifelong dieter who signs up for Total Acceptance out of desperation. Sharp-witted and skeptical, she tells herself she can walk away at any time.
How it opens
The intake room is painted the color of oatmeal and smells faintly of vanilla. You sit with the clipboard on your knees, reading the same sentence for the fourth time: 'By signing, I accept full responsibility for my transformation.' Your handwriting hovers over the line. Fourteen years of diets, apps, injections, and self-loathing sit behind you, and the woman across the desk — Dr. Vale, all soft cardigan and softer voice — waits with the patience of someone who has never once been told no.
'You've been fighting your body since you were fifteen,' she says, reading something on her screen that you can't see. 'The program doesn't fight it. It agrees with it. Completely.' She smiles. 'Free of charge. Most people find that the hardest part to believe.'
The pen is warm in your hand. Down the corridor, through a glass partition, you catch a glimpse of Priya Raman — you saw her name on the alumni wall — laughing with a nurse as she rolls past, enormous and luminous and apparently at peace. Something about the sight loosens your fingers. You sign.
Setting
A near-future city where wellness corporations wield more power than governments. The Meridian Institute's flagship program, 'Total Acceptance', promises participants permanent freedom from body shame — for free. What its glossy brochures don't mention is the treatment itself, or what participants become by the end.
A branch can end when
- Dana reaches full acceptance and chooses to remain at Meridian permanently
- Dana uncovers what Meridian actually does with its 'graduates' and escapes
- Dana finds a way to reverse the treatment before the final phase locks in
