Kelri's Gain Part 68: Advice

Kelri's belly churned and squelched with joy as it worked to digest the half gallon of weight gain shake she topped off her stomach with. While going about other work, One of her hands absentmindedly rubbed the side of the bare gut hanging between her wide spread legs. Her door was shut, but not locked. A part of her hoped someone would walk in so she would have to explain herself. Almost 320 pounds. How did I get here? I just liked to eat. But that wasn't enough to get all this. I guess it's not far from eating because you like it, and eating to gain weight.. But it's still a leap. she leaned over and reached both arms around her dangling stomach. With her rapid growth, each time she tried to reach around her belly, the space between her fingers widened. Connor did it. The treatment made me gain weight. But it was Connor's attention that changed me. Or did it just make me realize something I already wanted? I don't remember ever wanting anything like this. At the same time i don't really remember what it's like to not want this. Regardless, here I am.

Kelri leaned back in her chair, and pulled her belly up onto her lap. She grunted loud enough that she was sure anyone outside her office would have heard. Such a feat made her breathe harder. I've already started things to maybe affect people's weight. I don't want them to hate it though. I can't just go around and flirt with everyone in the office till they like being like me. No way that would work. Not logistically and not reasonably either. Reaching as far forward as she could, she grasped the bottom of her belly and lifted. With all her might it only lifted it about half way off her lap. Months of pleasing herself to the weight of her belly conjured a wave of arousal. It slipped from her fingers and plopped on her lap, jiggling and sloshing away. Fuck... You're getting so damn heavy. So nice and heavy. How am I going to keep lugging you around? Oh don't gurgle at me like that. I'm going to keep feeding you everything you want...

After a brief wander of aroused thoughts, her head called her back to the issue at hand. I can't think of anything to help out here. I can't convince people to feel like I do. But I didn't get here myself. Neither did Connor. The Secret Advisor was behind all of it, pushing and prodding. She pulled out her phone and sent a text message to the Secret Advisor. "Hey." She set the phone atop her belly and waited.

The Secret Advisor responded almost immediately, as was his trend. "Hey Kelri. I hope everything is going well with you. What do you need?"

Kelri tapped at the phone as it rested on top of her bare stomach. "Really fat. Really happy about it. Actually that's what this is about."

"I'm glad to hear about both things: that you're fat and happy. Are you just looking to chat? Or is there something I can help you with?"

"I have to say I'm sorry. I've been suspicious of you and aggressive. But all along the way you've pushed me to a place that I'm happy. I don't normally admit my faults like this. So. Sorry about that."

"It's no problem. Really it isn't. I'm glad things have worked out. I'm not perfect but I do hope that the strings I pull at cause people to be happier at the end of the day."

"Yeah. Well. I'm looking for advice again. You did this to me. Well, I did it to myself and Connor helped. So did the internet. But you were pulling some strings too. I want to know how to pull those same strings. I count at least myself, Valerie, and Adria among the people you've helped gain weight. Toria too? Maybe? I bet there is more. Like that whole convention hall of fatties. I want to help. What strings do I pull to make people want the same things I do."

"It's a trade secret."

"No! Stop that. Come on. You wont tell me who you are? Fine. But you can't just stone wall me at this. Not after you ask me to help out."

"Hah. It was a joke. Really though. It's not just knowing some magic words that will make people change their sexual habits. There are people who are affected by the idea that any amount of body fat is gross and abhorrent. I cannot change those people's minds. Not without years and years of work. There are normal people who have no real opinion. Given enough time, information, and access I can probably soften them to the ideas, but I'll likely never be able to turn them into someone like you.

"But there is another group isn't there?" Kelri texted back.

"Yes. There is the group that is naturally accepting or embracing of fat and stomach related fetishism. Are you familiar with the Pareto Distribution?"

"The name sounds familiar. Probably was brought up in college. Not something I've used in years though, if I ever did."

"To be brief, it's an observed phenomenon arising from a number of other principles. It can be found all over the natural world as well as the artificial world. To summarize it : 80% of the problems are caused by 20% of the causes. The loudest most vocal customer causes the most problems. 80% of bug reports come from 20% of users. The quickest walkway between two buildings gets most of the traffic. The squeaky wheel gets the oil. It's so intuitive that it feels silly to type out."

"So you're saying that 20 percent of people want to be fat? Is that what that means?'

"Hah. No. that would make our task easy. It means that by targeting the right people we can achieve a lot of results. We focus our efforts on the 20% of people most likely to be swayed to our cause. It's a simple math really. When someone is exposed to something they're more accepting of it. If we increase the number of people who are fat enthusiastic, then we can make that an accepted part of life. We don't need to worry about convincing people to go from non acceptance to enthusiasm. We just need to push people who are already enthusiastic to be open. We need to find people who already have these attractions, and gently push them in the right direction. If we can push the most susceptible and eager to join our cause then we can have a greater effect than the effort we put in."

"Alright. Cool. That doesn't help me."

"It does though. I did not reach out to you just out of nowhere. Adria browsed fat fetish sites quite often making her a prime candidate. She talked about you, and what she said identified you as a possible candidate as well. From there it was a matter of finding the right things to say."

"And how do I know what the right things to say will be then?"

"That is something that takes lifetimes of practice. The important thing is to play your cards strategically. You don't need to get in someone's face and demand they change. That won't work. People don't like being told to change. Think back. There were people who encouraged you, but you likely did most of convincing yourself. Through emotions and arousal while laying in bed or procrastinating at work. You need to plant seeds that will grow in people's minds. You can do that by just being yourself - big and in charge. Honesty and openness help our cause as well, even if it angers some detractors."

"But what if I want to take a more active role? Because that's where I am. Lately I've really been wanting to help out."

"In that case, gentle nudges in the right places at the right time. Knowing the right way to push is hard. Information makes it a lot easier. You already have information on your Cozca app. If you want a more active role? That will help."

Kelri looked at her phone as if it just sprouted wings. The Cozca app seemed so intrusive before. Her reservations about it faded. She texted him back. "Thanks. I'll do that."

"I'm glad to have you on board Kelri."
