Today is my Birthday! We had a fun party. Some cake and some potion shenanigans. Then came the part I had been looking forward to. The rare and unusual dragon tradition of inflating the birthday dragon into a big balloon! Though this year I had prepared something, different. Instead of an air pump or helium tank, I bought a bag of magical self-inflating helium balloons! I opened the bag and shook the balloons out into my mouth as I swallowed the balloons whole. Before I finished the bag, I noticed my mid-section starting to grow as the balloons inside me started to inflate. Soon I was struggling to move as the balloons continued to expand. Excess helium working its way into my limbs and tail. Audible squeaks and creaking of balloons rubbing together emanating from my increasingly round and bumpy figure.
Couple minutes later, the balloons stopped inflating leaving me large, round, stuffed full of balloons, and totally at the mercy of my guests. Not the most comfortable method of inflation. But like most inflation methods, you get used to it after spending about a half-hour inflated. A guest came over and lifted me into the air. I gently floated, almost perfectly buoyant. The balloons creaking inside me. I could be like this for a while. All I can do is relax and enjoy it. Best Birthday Ever!

I’m very happy with how this came out and am very proud of this. Defiantly the most involved works I’ve done. 100% my favorite thing I’ve done so far!
