Special Treat: Tales From The Files Of F.A.T. (Part 1)

Hello my pretties~

Sadly I had to postpone yesterday's session of Tomb Of OBLUEteration until next week, so this Monday I thought I might treat you to one of my recurring OC's.

I have a few of them, most of them you're probably aware of.

Momma Gobbo is my biggest and most well known, with my goth girl trio of Belladonna, Violet, and Willow appearing in almost all of my blueberry inflation related stories, plus a few others. But there's another OC who I tend to insert into a lot of private commissions.

For those who follow my work, are regular buyers of my YCH stories, and who've commissioned stories from me with a paranormal or supernatural lean to them, you've probably read the memos of Janet Q. Henterghast.

In a sentence, Janet Q. Henterghast is a mid level researcher and agent for a fictitious arm of the US government called the Federal Anomaly Taskforce of America; which investigates, contains, and protects the country against bizarre, supernatural, paranormal phenomena (almost all of which make people fat).

I use her as an expedient way to infodump lore at the beginning of a story, providing details to the reader that the POV characters of the story aren't privy to. She's also a vessel for me to write S.C.P.-esque worldbuilding drabbles in the middle of my weight gain stories, as I'm want to do.

As a treat, here's some excerpts from her taskforce memo's previously featured in stories I'd published on Kindle Marketplace:

First Appearance

From ‘The Curious Case of the Golden Spoon Diner - For chunkycat:

The term ‘liminal space’ refers to a location which is a transition between two other locations, or states of being. These spaces are often unsettling, creepy, or just considered odd. Typically because liminal spaces are usually abandoned, outdated, and oftentimes empty.

A mall at 4am, a school hallway during summer, or an empty diner at night, for example. This makes it feel frozen and slightly unsettling, but also familiar to our minds. We try to fill in the gaps of these spaces with things our brains can make sense of…all the while the spaces themselves ultimately make no sense.

It should be noted that liminal space aesthetics have expanded in scope to include images of places that are simply nostalgic, dreamlike, and/or uncanny, to the point where the only remaining common trait across these ramifications is the striking absence of people. Liminal spaces are captured primarily through photographs, many of which are edited or doctored to give them their unsettling appearance.

Only a few genuine liminal spaces exist in our real, tangible world. And it is the opinion of this researcher, that they should be avoided at all costs, as their dreamlike, nostalgic but unsettling, and uncanny nature…foretells something much, much more unnatural to our world.

Let’s turn our attention to the Golden Spoon Diner along the interstate lines between the South and the Mid-Atlantic. An inauspicious retro diner with a colourful and intriguing past…if you’re paying attention to the signs.

First opened in the spring of 1953, the Golden Spoon Diner was built in the traditional galley style common in America. A long 2000 square foot building with a partially exposed kitchen, diner counter seating, and booths along its exterior windows, illuminated by bright neon signs on the inside and out.

When you think of a classic 50’s diner, both in the original sense and the ‘retro’ style that became popular in America in the late 1970’s, the Golden Spoon fits the description perfectly. Black and white checkered floors, cushy red vinyl upholstered seats, a jukebox in the corner, serving greasy, comforting faire like cheeseburgers, french fries, and milkshakes.

It opened to 1950’s America with a great deal of fanfare, offering burgers, malts, and rock and roll music to hungry teens and families of Taft Springs. However this success was short lived: less than a year later the Golden Spoon Diner was closed and shuttered after an anomalous event locals dubbed the ‘cheerleader milkshake madness of 53’ (Fig 07, pg 23). 

An explanation for the strangely localized hysteria was never discovered, and so the diner lay abandoned for over twenty years…until it was renovated and reopened in 1975. It kept the same name as the original diner, as well as much of its original decor and furnishings. As it was located on the interchange between Route 15 and Route 5, its parking lot was expanded to accommodate shipping trucks. The Golden Spoon became a popular truck stop.

Among the new staff was a fresh faced teenager, Gertrude Velnitz, who would go on to become the owner of the diner some 15 years later.

The early days of Ms. Velnitz ownership of the now renamed ‘Gerty’s Golden Spoon’ were, by local accounts, profitable and easy going. The diner saw both repeat customers and a great deal of money brought in by interstate truckers needing hot coffee and comfort food. The late 70’s also saw a lot of backpackers pass through and stop at the diner before visiting Taft’s Gullet, a popular caving site on the National Park caving circuit.

Accounts of these backpackers going missing regularly after eating late at night at the diner, while unsubstantiated, are another clue that the diner either contains, or is itself, an Anomalous Wandering Artefact (AWA). The few stories that have escaped Gerty’s Golden Spoon point to the antique jukebox or its now outdated fryolator as possible candidates.

The F.A.T. was still in its infancy at this point in time, so little attention was paid to Taft Springs and its anomalous diner. This was compounded by the fact that mysterious events suddenly went silent after 93’.

The 212 Northsouth freeway and overpass was constructed less than a mile from the Route 15/Route 5 interchange, completely bypassing the road the Golden Spoon was located next to. Travel and Shipping traffic no longer used the interchange, meaning business to the diner quickly dried up.

Strangely, the diner still has an active Yellow Pages listing and active phone number. Almost 20 years later, it is still somehow in business. There are only a handful of second hand reports that have emerged from Taft Springs about the diner, but there is one commonality between all of them:

People who have eaten at the diner report that the portion sizes are huge, often unfinishable. Yet something compelled them to finish eating, as if an invisible force was urging them to keep stuffing themselves. As such, the diner has been given a nickname by some of the locals: the Glutton’s Spoon.

It is the firm belief of this investigator that the curious case of the Golden Spoon Diner requires more attention from F.A.T., as to avoid the possibility of an incursion event happening under our very noses.

Report addendum:

I’ve just learned of a new development out of Taft Springs. It looks as though the Golden Spoon Diner is rapidly growing in popularity. While it receives little to no dine in customers, it’s been added to several delivery app menus. People all across the county, and even through the state, are eating its food.

This could be a situation.

I’ve booked a flight and a motel room a few miles from the diner. I need to experience its food first hand before I investigate further. There’s no need to put other agents at risk; I am aware of the dangers.

I’ll report back within 48 hours. I hope they haven’t run out of pie by the time I arrive.

Crossover with SCP?

From ‘Growing Fatter From MalO’s Influence - For anotherbyte’:

By the time we learned of the potential for MalO’s escape, it was already too late for the Foundation to act. Thus, it falls to us at the Taskforce to find and recover this Multidimensional Idiosyncratic Life Force (M.I.L.F.).

First, a primer on the MILF in question for the older members of the Taskforce Board:

MalO, or SCP-1471A, is the designation given to this creature by the Secure Contain Protect Foundation, our organization’s biggest rival for governmental funding. In layman’s terms, MalO is a sentient computer virus crossed with a Wendigo-like phantasm able to partially materialize itself in this plane of reality.

As a virus, it infects any/all mobile device architecture it is exposed to, spreading itself to the point of being unable to be uninstalled or deleted. Once installed, MalO bombards the device’s user with photos and videos of it drawing closer to the user in the real world. MalO appears as a 7 ft tall anthropomorphic female canid with shaggy black fur, a bleached canid skull for a face, and glowing white eyes. Some users have reported that their ‘versions’ of MalO also had large, human-proportioned breasts, but we have little definite evidence of this.

The taskforce has learned that the MalO software targets sad, socially awkward, and isolated young people through ads on social media sites, as well as pop up ads on popular online pornography hubs, with enticing pull quotes like ‘Never be lonely again’ and ‘The more you engage with MalO, the more she’ll be there for you!’.

Since MalO’s reported ‘escape’ from the Foundation’s containment, our search algorithms have found recent changes to MalO’s targeted ads and email promotions. They now include targeted phrases like ‘Let MalO fill you up!’, ‘Hungry? MalO knows how to satisfy your appetites’, and ‘Nothing fattens you up like MalO’.

These ads have been found on videos, posts, and image galleries tagged with #feedee, #BBW, #BHM, #SSBHM, #immobility, #feeder, #mommy, and #weightgain. While these tags confused members of the Foundation, this agent knows their significance and has provided a four page outline on the most at-risk kinds of people we should be screening for.

Enclosed is my full report, MILF capture risk assessment, and outline of at-risk victims. I look forward to working with you all to help recapture MalO before she infects more people’s devices.

-Janet Q. Henterghast, Junior Agent of the Federal Anomaly Taskforce

Report addendum: Case File Update

While the Foundation has retaken control of SCP-1479A, or so they claim, we currently have custody of Victim 0017 (aka ‘Charlie’). We tracked MalO’s SMS signal presence to Charlie's place of work, and from there it wasn’t hard to find his personal residence where he was being held captive by MalO.

The Taskforce’s agents were able to relieve Charlie of all of his digital devices, severing his connection with the MILF.

Charlie is currently being kept in a FAT Bureau facility north of here. We have him under constant surveillance, both for his own health and in order to determine if any trace of MalO is left within his mind.

It is the hypothesis of this agent that the human mind shares enough in common with a highly sophisticated computer matrix, as to render it a ‘device’ that MalO could feasibly inhabit, just as it can inhabit cell phones and tablets. If this hypothesis is true, then there is a chance that Charlie may not just be a victim of MalO’s corrupting and fattening influence…he may be host to it.

If that proves to be the case, this agent will be at hand to oversee what must be done.

From ‘Hypnotized and Fattened To Immobility For a Cult of Indulgence - For Switchytee’

From a report by Janet Q Henterghast, junior researcher at the Federal Anomaly Taskforce:

Of all the strange things I have investigated on behalf of the agency, the subject that both interests and terrifies me the most is the evidence we’ve collected that suggests the existence of the Great Old Ones; beings so vast and ancient that their physical forms transcend our understanding of reality, rendering them and their immediate influences functionally invisible to the average person.

Yet supposedly they exist at the precipice of our dimension. Waiting, watching, looking for ways of joining us completely in our dimension.

When I first joined F.A.T., all our records about GOO’s (As I have come to call them) were sparse and incomplete, suggesting that the GOO’s motivations and desires were so advanced that they were beyond human comprehension.

Yet over the years, I’ve developed a different theory based on new evidence I’ve encountered in the field. I posit that each GOO, of which there are likely a dozen or more, is motivated by a single base desire or idea. Irritability, listlessness, sexual gratification, indulgence, and so on.

Because of this, their actions upon our planet can be reasoned out quite simply. More interestingly still, is that if a GOO’s primary desire aligns with a human’s, it's possible the Great Old One can influence them and make them their servant in this dimension.

How many servants of the GOO’s are out there, I cannot say for sure. But they are most certainly among us, and they’ve been busy.

From ‘The Pizza Hole: A YCH Erotica Story’

[Excerpt from a post-dated Federal Anomaly Taskforce memorandum regarding budgetary increases]

…furthermore, it is items like P-107 in the task force's archive that require greater study. P-107 was ‘acquired’ in the summer of 1997 by our collector agents. It was discovered in [Redacted] in the apartment of [Redacted], having already killed him.

P-107 is an inconspicuous object: a cardboard pizza box containing a hot and fresh 18” pepperoni pizza with extra cheese. The branding on the pizza box says it’s from ‘Momma Gobbo’s Pizzeria’, alongside the denotation ‘Est. 1977’. The art of a winking female pizza chef giving an ‘OK’ sign appears to be an alteration of a popular stock art piece. No record of a Momma Gobbo’s Pizzeria exists within the continental US.

The pizza itself, despite being over 45 years old, appears and smells to be freshly made. Investigating the pizza reveals that two slices have been taken. When agent [Redacted] attempted to test the pizza by taking a bite, they rapidly gained over 350 lbs in less than fifteen minutes after ingesting a bite.

Thermographic imaging and magnetic resonance imaging of the pizza suggests it may be [Redacted]. Without further study, objects like P-107 may still be out there in the world, silently wrecking havoc…
