BOOOOORIIIIING! There, I said it!
...
Okay, okay, I know. She's a really good goddess. She's smart and kind and helpful and friendly and protect-ey and whatever-makes-for-a-good-goddess-ey. But that stuff just gets so BORING! Her idea of having a good time is just hanging out with mortals (nothing wrong with that, most of my priests are [arguably, anyway] mortals, but I mean, come on!) or advancing civilizations or politely asking people to scratch her behind the ears! That is not sexy! Nor does it involve excessive amounts of growing! And therefore it is just. Plain. Boring!
It's not like she couldn't manage it, after all. As a Growlithe, she was short and plain-jane simple, but there was a while after ascending (before she had a good handle on her new powers) where she was functionally growing an infinite amount of size at every discrete interval of time (which is obviously much slower than I like, but not bad at all for a beginner accidentally growing for the first time) and had a body so hot it was literally melting space-time (okay, not literally, literally, but that's like the closest description I can get without using words that haven't been invented yet)! So now that she knows what she's doing, we could both have such wicked awesome insanely cool growth races and sexiness-contests and stuff like that that it'd totally blow our collective minds! I'd even hold back so it'd be a fair fight! Mostly. Maybe. Kinda. Sometimes. Occasionally... Nah, not really. But I wouldn't gloat TOO much over winning!
Still... I did talk her into a little bit of growth, once, and we got a dozen or so times bigger than Karin's home universe before she wanted to stop. And when she saw it spinning there, so tiny and helpless and frail in comparison, her eyes lit up and she carefully cupped it in her palms to get a better look. I saw her watching everything, all at once, the way it all was so separated, yet so interconnected, and that smile on her face just got bigger and bigger. She hugged the whole thing tight to her chest, and then thanked me for showing her the beauty of the universe from on high... Or something. I remember her using a more vivid analogy (I wasn't paying all that much attention). She thanked me and my mom and dad again for giving her an opportunity to help not just one person, not just one city, not just one planet, but everything, and she promised to do everything in her power to make each of those worlds the best worlds she could.
At that point, I just shrugged and nodded and "don't mention it'd" right back. I was totally distracted thinking about how awesome it would be if all dinosaurs had photon laser beam cannons for eyes. Because, seriously, could you get more awesome? Anyway, one of these days I'll talk her into some real growth, maybe let her hold a few billion multiverses instead of one measly little cosmos! Until next time, Sunny out!

rabid of Karin the Arcanine goddess. Karin here is obviously an Arcanine, and just as obviously not just any old Arcanine. She was selected by the Æsir family to serve as guardian goddess for her home universe, and eventually perhaps some of the neighboring universes around hers.
And here Karin gets even bigger, although this is still not even remotely close to scratching the outermost surface of her powers. That's her home universe in her hands, there, folks.
I'm not even going to pretend otherwise: Karin is definitely one of my most 'extreme' characters, well beyond ridiculous by almost any stretch of the imagination... But, honestly, that's one of the things I like about her. And besides, she's paired up with the Æsir family- there aren't even words in the English language to explain how over-the-top those canines can get. But, like the Æsir, she has a very anthropomorphic personality rather than being some impassive or impartial force of nature. She has hopes, dreams, worries, fears, and all those kinds of things just like the mortals she once was among herself (I swear I'll probably actually even write about them someday!). And her seemingly-perfect personality isn't some lucky coincidence. The Æsir had an entire universe to pick from when trying to find the perfect guardian for Karin's home, and she was the best match for what they feel makes a good deity.
