Personality Preferences.

General
So here is a question. When dealing with fetish art (or just.. specialty art? Whatever you'd like to call it..) what are your personal preferences for how the subject(s) handle the situation? For instance, some people like a shy fatty, and others like a character that loves and abuses their situation. A growing macro loving to stomp around and having no care. Or a character that acts tough but is really soft on the inside. What are your preferences?
For me, generally I prefer the character to by shy and unwilling at first, but possibly changing to accept it and want what is happening.

they're all mad and grumpy the whole time ;)
Applies to both fats and toots, though with toots things can get more LOUD AND PROUD
Vore and macro sort of can fall into similar channels, but of course cities of people seldom can believably fall into the same category as a single prey sacrifice who may willingly offer themselves as a meal. So a macro destroying a city, stomping up streets, etc., is hard to see as other than mean-spirited unless they were invited to demolish a specific condemned part of a town… you see a cordoned-off city block where they are just doing their thing while spectators watch at a safe distance, cheering and happy to see them at work… that's a macro-as-hero, or how to give Gojira a job scenario. Cohabiting with a monster, in other words.
Finding a glutton simply growing immensely obese through one or more feeders toward a titanic obese size is more on the vore side, and if this is a creature where obesity health concerns really don't matter (bears, dragons, et al.), then it's simply a matter of consenting adults (we're steering away from cubs in these sorts of scenes to avoid side issues) exploring kinks that basically are "deadly sins" of gluttony, avarice, greed, pride, maybe a few others that don't quickly come to mind…
There's sort of a meta-pattern behind these views. In both cases, it takes ordinary life processes and magnifies them to terrible, destructive extremes where they are dangerous, excessive, objectionable. But had the creature in question been of normal size and shape and weight, doing what it does would not be so destructive and over-the-top. Simply because it has grown (sometimes in more ways than one) has it become a nuisance, object of derision or monster.
We all eat. We all (save for those of us born with defects) walked. Growing fatter or other life conditions may have made walking not possible anymore for some later in life. Growing so immense that just a single stop could crush buildings and people however is seldom in the cards for most of us. Growing so fat that we can't move anymore and sport a gigantic belly is possible for many of us, but not all - and most of us have peer pressure and a need to get around under our own power to never let it get close to that far out of hand. For others, it's a lot harder to control due to metabolism and body type, as well as dietary habits, and whatever physical handicaps you may have that prevent exercise levels similar to what well-fit people can do. (The latter is my problem; I am obese. I do have impulse control issues which have a mental basis too.)
Gojira was at first a monster of destruction, bent on destroying Tokyo with no means to appease him. He was seen as a dinosaur awakened by nuclear testing and mutated by radiation whose rage turned on Japan mostly because it was there, and had been bombed. Insult to injury sort of thing.
The metaphor of Gojira however was to show that Japan should not research offensive weaponry and stick with strictly defensive armament and forces. The danger the monster represented was the specter of the unknown horrors of Nuclear arms - something Japan will never hold, for it is an offensive weapon. Every step Gojira took and even his very breath were therefore destructive, for he was an icon of something touched by the Nuclear Age - forever tainted, unable to be cleansed (except by his death).
It wasn't until sequels that Gojira turned into Japan's protector, the nuclear holocaust they suffered now embodied by the monster as a shield against other alien and exotic mutant forms of harm, with Gojira always the supreme lizard. With that, Tokyo gets destroyed and rebuilt, over and over again, much like Hiroshima and Nagasaki, over and over again and again, and Japan none the worse for wear. And people end up loving the big, radioactive lug for it, missing him every time he goes wading off into the sunset, ocean waves rolling over his head as he plunges under water to his secret undersea cave again.
There's something of these little brainy Japanese boys in all of us seeing whatever macro creature may be assaulting whatever imaginary city there is. We can just imagine that we have our safe distance, or are a willing vore victim, quite willing to travel down that humongous digestive tract.
Or perhaps a bit more personally cuddly with a chubby gentle giant of a growing bear, dragon, what have you who can eat themselves out of a house, just as long as you can keep the pizzas coming, or whatever it is they like to fill up on. Cupcakes anyone? Pie? Streudel? Goodness, is the roof creaking already?
