Liz had been on your research team for months, working with you on a very niche aspect of gene editing in mice. She had always been fond of the little guys and had a soft spot for small creatures. She was by far the most trustworthy friend you had, and your heart fluttered when your mom opened the door and in she stepped. Where Liz got your parent's address was beyond you; for all you knew, the news of your shrinking had become public knowledge. The pair of them talked for a while, your mom still seemed hesitant to bring you up. Liz toured your old cage, and just before she was about to leave, your mom offered to make her some tea for the drive back. In this moment, a miracle happened, a chance for you to escape and get big again.
Liz had backed up to the couch until her planetary, jean-clad ass was directly in front of you. The view was quite awkward, and with you being so small, it was literally impossible to look away from it. Suddenly, you heard a burst of noise erupt from it, like an opened gas channel, and you felt a rush of warm air punch your chest, knocking you to the ground. Then, the smell hit you. The rotten stench was unmistakable, Liz had just let loose a silent fart directly onto your home base.
You coughed and gagged on her potent fumes, but as your mom came back with the tea pitcher, you had to make your move. Running as fast as you could to the edge of the leaf, you take a leap of faith directly onto the fabric of Liz's ass.
By some miracle, you're able to latch safely onto the fibers of her jeans. The smell here is even more potent, and you hope you can get higher up as quickly as possible. Their conversation is completely muffled now, but you can feel the jiggle of Liz's ass cheeks as she makes her way out the door. Not wanting to get sat on, you scramble up her butt until you make it to the belt line, seconds before she sits back down in her car. While it hums down the highway, you slowly scale up the small of her back, up under her bra, and eventually onto her shoulder. Just as Liz opens the door to her apartment, you make it into her giant ear and shout as loudly as you can.
"LIZ!!!!!! IT'S ME ______! I'M IN YOUR EAR!!!"
All of a sudden, chaos erupts around you! Small pieces of ear wax fall from the fark tunnel ahead of you and before long, Liz responds.
"Oh my god! I thought you had shrunk into nothing!! What happened to you? How do we get you back?"
Minutes go by as the two of you converse and catch up. Soon enough, Liz has rigged up a small set up where you can speak on one of her Airpods on a microscope while she listens through the other. The feeling is beyond refreshing, and while you can only look up at her oceanic eye through the microscope's lens, you feel somewhat human again. You quickly give her Sarah's phone number, and soon enough, she arrives with what looks like a cure.
The three of you chat for hours about your journey thus far, and as Sarah releases a bright blue gas from a familiar-looking canister, you start to feel the effects immediately. Almost instantly, your body shoots up from less than a millimeter to almost half an inch tall!
"Look at you!! You'll be back in no time!" Sarah exclaims happily. She waves goodbye for now, and Liz turns to you with a somewhat awkward expression on her face.
"Hey so I'm kind of hosting a big ass party tonight... I don't know when you'll be full-sized again, but in the meantime, you don't mind hiding out in my room for a while, right?"
You didn't really have a choice in the matter as she quickly scooped you up and dropped you off on her bed. Now left to your own devices, you decide what to do next...
