Amethyst Nocturne, the Eccentric Goth Small Bargain - Definitive Edition chapter 3 by slappy

Blake groaned as consciousness returned to him. When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was a huge skull staring straight at him with purple gems in its eye sockets. He screamed and jumped back from this terrifying sight. Then, as he looked around frantically, he saw that he was in a large room that looked like someone's dorm, but definitely wasn't his own. The walls were adorned with more skulls and above the bed was a poster of an androgynous figure wearing a lot of makeup playing an electric guitar. Beside the bad was a pair of black sneakers that had pink streaks on them.

As he continued to get his bearings, Blake saw some black makeup and a small stack of books near him, except these items were now much bigger than him. Or rather, he was now much smaller than them. The spirits did say that he would be shrunk if he accepted their deal after all. He approached the books to get a rough estimate of his new size and figured that he must have been about an inch tall now. The surface he was standing on had to be a desk, and that skull that frightened him earlier must have been a desk ornament of some kind.

Just as Blake began to wonder where he had seen the titles of those books before, the sound of a door opening interrupted his thoughts. Instinctively, he turned towards the door just in time to see a familiar girl enter. Not just any girl either, but one whose slightly chubby figure Blake often took any excuse he could to get a look at: Amethyst Nocturne.

Amethyst's pale skin contrasted with the black clothing she wore - while the sneakers by the bed may have had pink streaks, the tube top and skirt that were currently flattering her curves and showing off her belly were completely black. There was also the chin-length hair that framed her face and, apart from a streak of purple on one side, was also black. This girl was also wearing black lipstick, which didn't surprise the tiny mage. The tattoo on her arm had a little more colour to it, but the fact that it was a rose with very prominent thorns made it no less intimidating.

As Amethyst walked towards her bed, the chubbier parts of her body jiggled slightly with each footfall. Blake was so caught up in trying to get a good look at the giant goth's figure that he got startled when he heard a loud growling sound. Amethyst had stopped right in front of her desk and the noise was coming from her pudgy belly, which was vibrating noticeably as it rumbled. This was followed by a second growl, only this one was coming from her throat and sounded more frustrated.

"Now I gotta go all the way to the grocery store again," Amethyst griped as she rubbed her hungry belly, "because some people just can't keep their hands off my food!" While Blake continued to check out his giant crush as she made her way to her bed and put her shoes on, it occurred to him that he could be stuck in her dorm by himself for a long time unless he did something about it.

However, instead of heading out like Blake expected, Amethyst came back to her desk. Once she got there, her starving belly rumbled once again, prompting her to rub it again. This bought the tiny mage some time to decide how best to approach the goth giantess.

"Ugh, but do I really wanna go out right now?" Amethyst pondered. "I mean, if they're allowed to just help themselves to my food, I can just help myself to theirs, right? But then they'll get mad and we'll end up fighting. Hmm ..."

While Amethyst wrestled with her dilemma, Blake came up with a few ideas for how to proceed. If he wanted, he could try to get his crush's attention. While he was out in the open already, he would surely be more visible if he jumped and waved his arms or something. The books could provide high ground for him, or he could try casting a flight spell to bring himself up to her face. Alternatively, he could try knocking the skull ornament over. No way would Amethyst be able to ignore that!

On the other hand, Blake could try to get onto the giant goth girl's body without her noticing. He would probably have to cast a flight spell to reach her body at all, and then it would be a matter of which part of her body to get up close and personal with. Thanks to her tube top, her cleavage would probably be the easiest target, but maybe there were ways to get that close to other parts of her body.
