“Greenhorn Jessie suits up to go on the deck of the Northwestern!” Brittany teased Jessie with her very best imitation of Mike Rowe from Deadliest Catch.

“Oh shut up.” Jessie snapped in response as she slipped her feet into heavy rubber boots. “It’s not my fault I was born without any insulation!”

A late, unexpected, winter storm had dumped about a foot of snow all over the city. Brittany had been overjoyed when she looked out her window and saw the large flakes of snow accumulating on the ground; she loved wintery weather, as it made for the best cuddling and was extremely pretty. Even Nathan was pleased, as mother nature had kindly waited for a three day weekend, so instead of a 4 AM phone call to come into work Nathan was able to enjoy the winter wonderland with his mates.

Jessie was also happy about the snowfall, it was a nice change of pace from rain and was fun to play in. But unlike her mates, who were ready for cold weather by blood (or fur you could say), thanks to their husky DNA, the thin furred feline was much less adapted for the cold weather. While Brittany and Nathan were dressed in shorts and t-shirts she was bundling up in thick winter clothes.

“You know…” Brittany said thoughtfully while Jessie threw on her scarf. “It’d be pretty easy for you to get some insulation, as you put it, with some In For A Penny.”

In for a Penny was one of Brittany’s elixirs that caused nearly instant weight gain. People often asked Jessie why on earth Lewd Brews sold such a potion, didn’t everyone want to be skinny? But there were actually lots of people that liked being heavy and thought it made them sexy. They also sold a fair amount to Hollywood and the adult film industry when an actor needed to gain weight for a role or even athletes trying to manipulate their girth before a weigh in.

Jessie stared at her mate for a moment, wondering why she’d never thought about that. The strategy seemed to work pretty well for polar bears. Why not her? As if reading her thoughts Brittany produced a small potion bottle from her cleavage. At that very moment Jessie probably should have questioned why her mate just so happened to have the weight gain potion on her but the feline was starting to get excited by the proposition and was too amped up to really think it through… but unfortunately for Jessie it didn’t work.

“I’m still cold.” She complained bitterly as they trudged along the thick snow.

“Well,” Brittany said while admiring her mate from behind. “I do have one more idea if you really want to warm up!”
