Just another day.
Like all the rest. Mundane, simple, routine.
Flareup had her whole day planned out. First, check in with her commanders to see if any search-&-rescue jobs had come up, then help Lightbright with her academy interview paper; and finally, meet up with Warpath for a little date they had arranged.


Unfortunately, this “just another day” hadn’t accounted for Red-Alert calling her out of the blue, requesting her aid in testing a new creation of hers, throwing off her schedule as she rushed over to the doctor’s lab. 
Ah well. Red-Alert was a close friend of hers, so she wasn’t too regretful of her choices.


*GLURGLE*
“Ughh… Why did I agree to this…”
Now, however, Flareup was very much regretting her choices.


As she sat in place, her frame had turned from its normal red hue to a rich shade of blue as a consequence of ingesting Red-Alert’s new liquid concoction, leaving her almost resembling a Decepticon’s color scheme; Not exactly something she was a fan of, resembling a filthy ‘Con.
And that wasn’t even to mention the swelling.


As the two fell further under the chemical’s effects, they had adopted gradually rounder shapes as the mixture replicated & churned within their systems, bowing their bodies outward like overfilled energon cubes. Soon enough, the pair of femmes were left immobile orbs, the liquid in their frames sloshing as they slowly rocked on the spots where they had lost their ability to move.


In front of her, the similarly-afflicted Red-Alert murmured as her body teetered back-&-forth. 
“Oh my, I c-can’t say I expected this… S-such a strong reaction,” she muttered, slightly giddy from the sensations currently flooding her circuits.


“Are you for real, Red?!” Flareup exclaimed in frustration, angrily wobbling as she flapped her extremities and almost losing her barely-maintained balance in the process.
“Your little ‘experiment’ has cost me a date, cost you your dexterity, and cost both of us our dignity! And that’s all you have to say?”


This outburst broke the medic out of her stupor, though a sly smile did not leave her faceplate.
“Oh Flareup, why so concerned? Surely it can’t feel that bad for you,” she remarked.


Flareup grimaced with slight embarrassment, hating that her friend was right.
Sure, she was irate that this whole thing had happened, but she couldn’t deny the comfort she felt from the almost-rhythmic movement of the alien liquid within her distended frame.
“It’s still annoying. Why, out of all the times you’ve asked for my help, were you so eager to test this new stuff, conveniently forgoing all the usual precautions?”


A chuckle was all she got in response, followed by what she could swear was a moan..
“I believe that’s for me to know and for you to find out once the tests conclude, my dear~”
“W-wait, what? What tests?” Flareup sputtered out, confused as to what the blue medic meant.
With a wink, Red-Alert let out a call. “Boys?”


Suddenly, two chutes on either side of the room opened, and a 10-strong swarm of diagnostic drones flew into the room and surrounded the pair of autobots.
This sudden commotion frightened, and only caused her more confusion as to what her friend’s plans were
“Red, what’s g-going on?” she stuttered, her optics following the ring of drones around them.


“Ohoho… You really should relax, Spark” the medic teased her fellow orb with her old nickname.
“You’ll enjoy what comes next more if you do.”
Without further warning, Red-Alert strained & heaved herself rolling forward, colliding with Flareup’s body with enough force to start a new set of sloshing sounds from their internals.
This caused a sudden jolt of feelings through Flareup’s frame, causing her to gasp in the process. As most of the mixture within her had centralized in her larger chest, it was highly sensitive to Red-Alert’s own body pressing into it.


Looking up at her friend’s distressed expression from the soft expanse of her bust,
Red-Alert smiled once more, before calmly sighing.
‘Don’t worry, dear; We’ll be fine. The drones are simply going to run a few tests on our bodies and how our systems have processed my new formula, then we can worry about reversing this.”
“For now, however,” she closed her optics and smirked again.
“I suggest you get comfy and enjoy the ride~”


Flareup felt her optics roll at this, the pressure in her body and the feeling of Red-Alert’s touch already starting to lull her mind into relaxation.
“Oooh, just my luck,” she internally thought. “At least Warpath won’t see me like this.”


And so, the drones got to work; Scanning, noting, & prodding the bloated fembots repeatedly.
This was going to take a while…
