Hi all, I'm making this so we can share our favorite methods for our favorite fantasy.
As for myself, I've been a fan of unconventional methods for inflating, rather than the standard air pumps and such. I love the idea of a girl drinking some weird potion or such and then finds herself rapidly rounding out and floating a few feet higher.
The idea of a "Balloon Energy Drink" marketed to make you feel "lighter" has quite a literal meaning ;)
Love to hear everyone's else's ideas.
And yes, this is purely for a fantasy scenario as in writing or drawing, so please keep the "I stuff and inflate mah self irl" comments to yourself.
Call me oldschool but I'm quite the fan of the classic hose in the mouth. Preferably when the inflatee is taken by surprise.
Kinda so they start off with that whole "ohmygod what's happening?" then shifts to "Holy crap I'm a blimp!" once they realize what just happened to their body.
