BA Prey Auctions 2025 -- A Special Interview! (1 DAY LEFT!!)
4 months ago
Berried Alive 2025 YCH Prey Auctions are open HERE until July 12!
With Berried Alive returning to syndication after the 2024 hiatus, SlickDratini's gallery has gotten a little too big to ensure every girl can have their own story. Today, we ask two pairs of girls how they're coping with the necessary changes, whether they're newly minted and eager to show their stuff or already familiar with the business. There's only just over a day of auction time, so while there's not a lot of room left to bid, they do seem to have a lot that they want to say... whether or not it follows my interviewing itinerary.
--- The Interview Begins ---
Interviewer: Julia, Shauna, Anna, Dottie? Thank you for agreeing to talk to me today.
Anna: The pleasure's all ours, short stuff~ :p
Julia: Tch, he said my name first. I'm the one who should be replying, not you! ;P
Dottie: It's no skin off my chrome. If the chief gets upset that I'm off my beat, I can always blame you. :drooling_face:
I: Um, d-didn't you tell me that you would call it a "community outreach initiative"?
D: Yeah, as I said. I'd blame you.
Shauna: It's BULLSHIT! That's what it is!! D:<
A: Aw, here we go...
S: I was supposed to be this year's cover girl, now I don't even get a story of my own? I have to share with THIS bitch?!
J: You should be glad that you get to star in my shadow, Shuppet! It'll make you glow brighter if the people see you under me, heh heh.
S: Why you, grrrrrrmmmff...
It was at this point that Shauna tried to swipe at Julia, but the salt line around her seat kept her at bay.
I: I must thank Slick again for the tip on how to keep Shauna contained. I would never have thought of it myself.
S: Rrrrgghh... You're gonna regret this, mortal interviewer! It's an outrage in print media!
I: I'm sorry, but I do need to start asking questions if I'm to actually call this an interview. I'll get to you soon, Shauna, but first, let me start with a blanket question: What is it like being in Berried Alive?
Julia's expression notably sours as she folds her arms under her breasts.
J: Is this a question for the "old guard", then?
I: No, you can answer too. In fact, as one of the newest OCs, you have the unique delight of being the lone human predator amid the Pokégirls and robots here. Does it pose any interesting challenges since Slick only uploads these on FurAffinity?
J: Tch, not like I need to worry about that. People love me on any site because I'm just a great character. Maybe I'd get a lot more outreach on Eka's Portal, wink wink, but I know Slick's got so many pictures of old bitties that it would take forever to upload them on the new site.
A: Hey! Old bitties? Ah ain't Nibbles!
D: Yeah! We're not even ten years old!
A: Yer closer.
S: Gyeheheh...
J: Anyway, I wouldn't say it's that big a deal, no. As the token human connection, I'll always have a place in this book.
S: Behind a Galarian Rapidash's butt, heh.
J: Shut up!
I: I've been told that you're opening the festivities for this next installment. Care to give us a more detailed version of your story's premise?
J: Oh, I'd be happy to...
--- Julia + Shauna Story -- An Updated Primer ---
Julia: My story plays around with the kind of found footage theming you see in only the best horror films. ;P
Shauna: AUGH. DX
J: My role is of the fun urban exploration influencer friend who's bringing her friends along to explore an abandoned Pokécenter, and it's pretty scary in there, since it was basically left alone after some scary incident happened.
Interviewer: Without spoiling anything, can you give us more info about the incident?
S: Oh, you know, the classic "something ate the people who kept it running, now it's an old ruin on the edge of town" sort of thing. I'm playing the ghost who would have normally been the biggest predator in there, but Slick had the NERVE to say "we need something new this year, and anyway you kind of took over the whole show last time", bleh bleh bleh. Can you BELIEVE that nobody voted for me as the character they want to see as the star of their own story?
J: Heh, I can. Your ass got a little too fat off of the last one!
Anna & Dottie: Ooooohh!
S: Why you little-- GAAAHH! Why the salt? I just want a chance to wrap my hands around her scrawny little neck, that's all!!
J: Heh. Scrawny. That's cute, coming from a low-IV Shup.
I: Ahem! Clearly there's some friction between you, Shauna. Your storied takeover of the previous Berried Alive, along with cameos in the stories of other girls, made a big impact on the readers back in 2023. Aren't you satisfied with the splash you made back then? It was a pretty big splash, especially since it was supposed to be Bella's book.
S: Of course not! I'm a hungry Shuppet, I hunger for the audience and the limelight! I hunger for a spot on the freaking cover! But do I get that? NO! I don't even get to possess this bitch and pretend that I can share the spotlight for a second.
J: I'd still wear my curves better than you would. Don't you agree, Mr. Interviewer~?
Dottie: Of course she wants more. She hasn't gotten a chance to branch out.
Anna: Oh hell, didn't she have enough action in th' last book?
D: I dunno know why you're complaining. We worked really well together, and I know you did with her too!
A: Yeah, yeah, yer just chummy cause you got yer own storybook with that Brett guy.
D: Cheek 2 Cheek, now free to read on FurAffinity~ :drooling_face:
S: Showoff... Hope they choke on your hyperlink! D:<
A: Anyway, we think she got a lil' too big fer her britches last time out, so we told Slick to-
S: Hey, wait a minute, why aren't you as upset as I am, huh plantgirl? You haven't had a big solo feature as Dottie, even with that Hunter Anna thing. I mean, that VeryBatty comic was incredible, but you won't have the same kind of full-frontal featured story as...
Anna gave Shauna a look that this interviewer can only describe as "unreadable and readable at the same time".
S: ...No. Don't tell me. You've got a big story feature in the works too?
A: First quarter, 2026. Maybe last quarter, 2025, if ah can finagle it. Course, ah'll hafta share it with Nibbles an' Mariana, an' even that there Selena's gonna show up-
S: Oh, SONNUVA--!!
It took a little while to corral the angry Shuppet, but eventually we were able to continue with the interview.
I: Alright, it's clear that Julia and Shauna have differing opinions on their significances in this book, but I've been told that you agreed upon the same final vore stunt?
S: Yeah, an anal vore tug of war! One ass versus another, with the winner getting more than just the prey in the middle, heh heh heh...
J: Oh, I can't wait for that one. You're gonna look so good on my hips, Shauna~
S: I can say the same about you, little witch. This ass had half the cast in it at one point. It's got plenty of room for you!
A: Huh, is Nibbles in here or is it just you girls? >_>
--- Anna + Dottie Story -- An Updated Primer ---
Interviewer: Alright, Anna and Dottie, let's turn to you for the second part of this interview. Can you give me more detail about the story you're in?
Anna: Sure as smut! It's got a lotta high-falutin' words in it, so y'all might wanna forgive me if ah let a few details slide-
Dottie: Basically, it's kinda like Aliens mixed with System Shock 2, where Anna plays the giant creature devouring most of the crew and I'm the security robots that pick up and devour the stragglers! :D
A:[/]b Ah was gonna git t' that... >:|
[b]I: A rather inspired piece, I should say. Would you say that Slick's outreach to the community helped pick that idea out?
D: Not really! I mean, it helped him pick the idea when he saw people hungry for space, but he'd always wanted to play with more space stuff anyway. I bet if he wasn't chained to Pokémon stuff all the time, he'd play with things like that more often.
A: Hey, whatcha mean about "chained"? Ah got confused fer a Floran once, that shows ah got range. Ah could easily step these here boots inta another kinda story, jus' gotta have some sun on th' other side an' ah'll be rarin' to go!
I: Interesting to note. Dottie, you seem rather agreeable toward playing the secondary roles today. Is there something behind that?
D: Well, I'm Slick's only non-affiliated OC so far, so that means I've got job security, right? If he gets tired of Pokémon stuff, he'll come to me for some cyberpunk robot action! He loved working on Cheek 2 Cheek and I know he'd love to be recognize for that sort of thing. I heard he's been interested in following that up, and I've gotten some really awesome art lately, so I don't have to worry about falling behind. If a certain company comes crashing down on the other girls, I'll still be a moneymaker~
A: ...Somethin' tells me that yer more dangerous than yer lettin' on.
Julia: Hey, I'm dangerous too! I can put on clothes that aren't Pokémon related, heh... Still totally a threat without my encyclopedic knowledge at my back.
Shauna: ...Gyeheheh...
D: Hm? Hey, what's with that grin? Do you know something I don't?
Shauna: Sorry. Guess I just had a frog in my throat. >:D
I: If we could get back to the task at hand, I have a potentially difficult question now: Anna, you've seen bids going up for all of the other girls at this interview -- Julia, Shauna, and even your own supporting Dottie have their slots at a higher price than yours. Would you say it's disheartening in any respect?
A: Mmmm... lil' bit, but ah'm a hard worker. Ah can earn mah cash after th' fact. Might even get me one o' them fancy fie-nan-seers t' fill in th' gaps what this fancy auction don't cover. Ah ain't too troubled about it. 'Sides, ah know ah'm a-shooin' fer a cover girl spot one o' these days, so if it means takin' a hit now fer a big shot later, ah got th' patience of an oak tree.
J: Heh, what makes you think Slick will still be doing Berried Alive by the time your shot comes up?
A: Well, if ah know Slick, ah know he's always had his eyes on th' bigger story picture. He can spend plenty o' time plantin' trees one by one, but he's lookin' into an orchard of big name ideas, th' kind that spreads his fruits across many more dinner tables than one-person commissions do alone. He'll probably keep goin' at this fer a while, but even if he stops Berried Alive someday, that'll be at a point when all of us girls have our own big features an' ain't havin' t' squabble about who will be headin' 'em up.
I: Very insightful, Anna. I'm impressed at how well you keep your composure when faced with uncertainty.
A: It's easier t' buckle down, eat somebody, an' wait fer things t' calm down. They always do, eventually.
--- Final Thoughts ---
Interviewer: Alright, with those big questions answered, I'll bring us to your final thoughts. If you had something to say to your fans while the auctions are still open, what would you say?
Julia + Shauna: Bid on me, you stupid--
Julia and Shauna look at each other for a moment, almost showing an ounce of respect for each other on the shared reaction, but then they start shouting at each other again.
Julia: Why would they bid on YOU when I'M the one obviously getting you up my ass at the end?
Shauna: Oh, that's rich! You'll be possessed in a heartbeat, sister, and I'll be adding your dumb face to the bulges in my buttfat! D:<
J: What if I said I got a different script than you? ;P
S: Oh yeah? Doesn't matter! I'll go OFF script! Not like it'll be hard!
J: Substandard typing!
S: Mortal fleshbag!
Anna: Well, ah don't know about those two rabble-rousers, but if'n yer lookin' fer a gal t' trust with yer heart-on, ah'll let y'all know that mah story will have a mighty fine internal shot durin' th' digestion, so if ya like that sorta thing, bid me up. Not like ya gotta do it, though.
Dottie: I only have one thing to say, and that's to Brett... Keep up the good work. ;)
A: ...Sure is nice havin' a chrome-chasin' sugar daddy, huh? =_=;
D: It's the best~ <3
I: Well, you heard it here first, dear readers. With just one and a half full days left to the prey auctions (less if you're just now reading this), we're on the home stretch, and the girls are full of vim and vigor. Some are chomping at the bit to prove themselves, while others are content to bide their time and enjoy the ride. With this Berried Alive focused less on one-upping its previous iterations and more on making a sustainable and easily replicated model, we could be seeing the casting of a mold that future installments will follow. This concludes the interview for Bottom of the Belly Monthly, and I'll see you next time with Nibbles's fashion tips on how to apply makeup in a place where no one can know you're wearing it.
Nibbles: It's exactly the way you're thinking of~ ;3
Berried Alive 2025 YCH Prey Auctions are open HERE until July 12!
(And if you're the kind of guy who wants a TL;DR, just check the link above and slap a bid on anything that's not AB'd. I'll really appreciate it, even if reading this is a litmus test for your compatibility in the storybook...)

~jcsolis
Definitely got some beef between the girls. Hope that they don't mind the recent readjustments. Hehe. 😅
SlickDratini
~slickdratini
OP
They'll get used to it~ ;3c
jcSolis
~jcsolis
Seriously tho, dude, you do got a lot of ladies in your OC list. So much so that you can't even fit them all into something like this without sharing. Lol
SlickDratini
~slickdratini
OP
I know friends who have twenty times the amount of OCs I have! At least I try to make alternate forms so they have different opportunities to show off~
jcSolis
~jcsolis
Oh, no worries! I understand. OC creating is super fun! Working on their personality, backstory, character design, and of course, their KINKS! 😁I have like over two dozen OCs myself, so I understand how it feels to have a lot of OCs and trying so hard to give each character enough love. It's fun to create these OCs, and fun to have them go through stuff. 😊
