Idea for a story scenario.

[BlazingBarrager]

Guess so.

Then again, I don't believe its actually been proven impossible hasn't it?

Ah well, I need to focus more on the story and such rather then this reality.

A 50' woman would be literally incapable of respiration, no matter how much air she inhaled due to the oxygen being far too small to be of any use. The opposite is also true - a shrunken woman would also find herself unable to breathe because the oxygen would be too large to be absorbed properly.

Then you get into the whole "how does she eat/drink/whatever" questions and the whole thing just dissolves into impossibility.

That's why I prefer magic as well!

Ahhle-hoy! There's a way around everything. If it's a "biological" or chemical transformation, then people could still breathe. Your lungs are made to accept only a certain molecule, and more lung will accept the same kind of molecule, only in a larger proportion. And you don't really quadruple the strength. The magnitudes all increase by the same amount, eight, it's just that you will increase also the torque required to move, and it increases by the SQUARE of the distance.

So well, the way around is to do your maths properly. As for... what could you use? Humor. That always works.

"It only affects cute girls!? How in hell does that work!?"
"Perfectly, thanks."

There's also the "out of sight, out of mind" approach.

"By everyone I meant everyone."
"Ah, so does that mean your..."
"I'd rather not think about it."

Besides if strength is a problem, remember that the heat our body produces contains many, many times as much energy as our muscle strength; it takes forty-one joules and some to create ten calories. Were there some way around it, then imagine the possibilities!

Just make sure that the rest of the story is enjoyable as well. That means plot, it means humor, and all those things so hard to do properly... I'd been thinking of writing one myself, my drawink skills ain't that good, though I've tried to make some comics (non-GTS, I'll do that once I get the female figure [the attractive female figure, I mean] right). But my writing is sort of sick and twisted. Thought I might get into trouble here, the way I imagine things is usually rather disturbing.

I mean, who else would think of protoplasm composed of chemically mutated ova producing bizarre (and, to the clich? degree, sexy [i.e. you know, nekomimi and that sorta stuff]), colossal mutations in animals (or people...) it finds and assimilates, the damage contained only by the ocean's shoreline, and a man being put to the difficult test of deciding whether culture or sheer savage joy is more important, whether he will help things cross the Pacific puddle to a larger continent and inflict the human race with a shmexy worldwide apocalypse or wait for da bomb and die with it? Hey, I didn't just kill this thread, right?

(checks the thread's pulse.)

So you see, since ova are a rather touchy subject, together with stem cells, nuclear explosions, mutations on humanity, and personal choices, I decided not to write it. though for a game it would make a damn good plot.

Psst. I wanted to know if you thought it was a good idea.

[dartnet]

I personalty think it's a great idea.

Another scenario on the same line is a girl try's a spell she finds in an old book to become taller (like lets say one or two inches) and more attractive and it works (of course) only after an hour or so after she gave up on casting it. She is of course delighted, but what she doesn't know is that the spell is still going and it's contagious. So not only dose she have to deal with random (or what she thinks are random) small growth spurts but all the females between the ages 16 to 30 years that she comes in to contact with are also affected.

What happened is she forgot to end the spell. Now because the spell's climax required her to drink some water and splash it on her face every times she is in contact with water she expands. After a short period of time of course which is the reason she didn't end the spell in the fist place.

Hopefully this will get this thread back on track.

Ah, but THAT assumes that they're growing because there are more cells in the body, as opposed to existing cells getting bigger!

I read that somewhere, but I can't find it now. I can't find anything on your statement either, so I'm dropping the whole thing.

Fantasy solves all problems! It really does. It's not like I dwell on the science behind it when I write.

Besides if strength is a problem, remember that the heat our body produces contains many, many times as much energy as our muscle strength; it takes forty-one joules and some to create ten calories. Were there some way around it, then imagine the possibilities!

This is true, but we don't measure typically calories. The food that we eat is measured in Calories, or Kilocalories.

Also, 41 joules is not a lot of power at all. As long as we're throwing out numbers, it takes over 1000 joules just to equal one BTU!

Just make sure that the rest of the story is enjoyable as well. That means plot, it means humor, and all those things so hard to do properly...

But my writing is sort of sick and twisted. Thought I might get into trouble here, the way I imagine things is usually rather disturbing.

I'm kind of the opposite. I like to think that my works are light-hearted, but if I spend too long working on something I start to dwell on things like "How is she going to live past day 2?" That's why I write in small bursts unless I'm really inspired.

I mean, who else would think of protoplasm composed of chemically mutated ova producing bizarre (and, to the clich? degree, sexy [i.e. you know, nekomimi and that sorta stuff]), colossal mutations in animals (or people...) it finds and assimilates, the damage contained only by the ocean's shoreline, and a man being put to the difficult test of deciding whether culture or sheer savage joy is more important, whether he will help things cross the Pacific puddle to a larger continent and inflict the human race with a shmexy worldwide apocalypse or wait for da bomb and die with it?

I find the topic of personal sacrifice fascinating and I'm automatically intrigued by any story containing it. So you've got my vote. [/size]

I think that infectious growth scenarios are a lot of fun and make for excellent artwork. I don't feel like they make for good stories though, since you end up spending a lot of time either discussing the background or detailing the many characters who are infected. In either case I think it makes written stories unfocused and cluttered.

[wolfman-al]

I personally think we should overanalize it to death. We should just have some fun with the scenario, and I cant wait to see what you guys come up with.

[BlazingBarrager]

Well I got my character description and personality complete. Now if I just had the motivation and patience to put it into a story.

Neato!
Can you give us some info about your characters?

[BlazingBarrager]

I guess it wouldn't hurt. The bio doesn't target this idea scenario though. Oh, and I would really appreciate it if you guys could give any tips on improving her if she needs it. She's still a working progress.

Katie Johnson


Characteristics and Physical Traits

Katie is a twenty-one year old woman with short, pink hair that is somewhat wild and green eyes. She was 5.8 feet tall, had a C cup bust, and an almost perfect eight figure. She weighed around 125 pounds and has a small, athletic tone for her body. Ever since Jewel of Colossus combined with her though, she grew to the height of seven foot even as a normal height, weighs around 175 pounds, and has a D-Cup size bust. While she doesn?t have a particular style when it comes to clothing, she always wear a special pair of brown underwear and bra that doesn?t rip with her size-changing thanks to the power of the Jewel of Colossus.

Personality

When it comes down to it, Katie is mature, spunky, and downright sensitive. Because of her sexy figure, she has been a victim to many attempts of guys attempting to get her with them and thus refuses to form any kind of relationship with people. She is very caring of her little brothers Jake and James though. Of course, thanks to all of the times people tried to get to her she has toughened up and can be very harsh at times. This lessoned up ever since her life changed due to the jewel since she could easily hurt her loved ones though.

Oh, and please ask any questions if you have any.

[wolfman-al]

Hm!
That looks quite promising!

Thank you.

[wolfman-al]

Anything new here?

[BlazingBarrager]

Aside from my girl being completed, no.
