With how chunky Blake was, the rest of Team RWBY always suspected that the rest of her family might have also been on the larger side. That didn’t turn out to be true in the way they expected when it came to Ghira, her dad, who was tall and muscular, but it turned out very, very true for her mother, Kali.
Their first encounter with Kali came when the team visited the Belladonna family home with Blake. Ghira was the one to let them into the house, much to Blake’s surprise.
“Is Mom not around at the moment?” Blake asked.
“Oh, no, no, she’s here, she’ll just be a moment, I’m sure,” Ghira answered reassuringly. As if on cue, Kali rounded the corner. Her face lit up the moment she spotted the girls and she waddled as fast as her thick legs could carry her. The ground shook, tables were thrown aside, and ornaments were scattered everywhere as she barrelled down the hallway. Kali’s hips were wide enough to fill the somewhat narrow side hall and she walked with such sway in her hips that anything not nailed down was at risk, and her hips often bounced off the walls, leading Team RWBY to notice a handful of dents in the walls and the various forms of damage on all the furniture and decorations that were in the main entrance. Kali’s enormous hips supported a massive bouncing rear that jutted out like a shelf and was supported by her tree-trunk-like wobbling, waddling legs, all of which were filling her black hakama to the point where it was nowhere near as loose as hakama generally were. She reached out with ham-hock arms that barely reached past her enormous flowing double-belly, which itself poured over the waistband of her hakama and strained her white top. The black and gold shrug she wore over that top was very snug around her neck, with the collar disappearing beneath Kali’s third chin.
Fortunately, at Kali’s size, she wasn’t particularly fast. That gave Team RWBY plenty of time to prepare to be smothered in Kali’s kind, loving embrace. First in line to be hugged was Blake, the mother and daughter pair’s bellies smushing against each other as they hugged. Blake hesitated for a moment, still caught off guard by her mother’s appearance, but she still returned the hug. Kali hummed thoughtfully as the pair hugged, her thoughts coming out when they broke off the hug.
“I think I might have gained the weight you lost since I last saw you,” Kali commented, patting her belly, then Blake’s belly. Blake had to be half Kali’s size, and very possibly less than that, so the rest of the team could only imagine how big Blake used to be.
“Huntsman training does burn a lot of calories,” Blake quietly added, blushing awkwardly slightly at her size being brought up.
“That would explain you two,” Kali said as she reached to hug both Ruby and Yang at the same time, one arm each. Little Ruby was practically smothered by Kali’s pillowy everything until she figured out how to break for air. Yang, on the other hand, being taller and stronger, weathered Kali’s hug with no problem, with her arms sinking deep into Kali’s back fat.
“Uh, what explains us?” Ruby asked, her face flushed from the temporary lack of air as Kali released the sisters from the group hug.
“Oh, Blake mentioned that you two were big eaters, yet you’re still so thin,” Kali explained.
“I’ve pretty much got a bottomless stomach, and I burn it all pretty quickly,” Yang bragged, earning a thoughtful nod of acknowledgement.
“Now, you,” Kali said as she turned to Weiss. Weiss had barely enough time to prepare in order to avoid Ruby’s fate. As Kali wrapped her in the pillowy soft hug, Weiss began to blush, though fortunately, no one noticed, nor did they figure out that Kali was the cause. “I have to ask, how does someone as wealthy as a Schnee stay so awfully thin?” Kali questioned. Weiss spluttered and stuttered for a moment, before pulling out an answer.
“I… suppose it’s the family keeping up appearances for the Atlas elite,” Weiss mused aloud, having not really thought about it until now.
“Well, it’s a good thing you’re the only Atlesian here, no one to keep up appearances for here, so you should enjoy yourself,” Kali reassured Weiss. “Oh, that reminds me, I was making a nice, big lunch for when you four got here, I got it ready just in time.”
“Yay! Great timing, wasn’t it?” Ruby cheered.
“I’d say, I’m starving,” Yang agreed, patting her flat stomach for emphasis.
“I… suppose I could eat,” Weiss concurred as the team followed Kali’s leisurely waddle to the dining room.
“Oh no, it’s happening again,” Blake said under her breath, so quietly only the cat-eared could hear her, though if Kali could hear her, she didn’t react to Blake’s comment.
All four of Team RWBY’s jaws dropped when they saw the literal mountains of food set out for them.
“Th-this isn’t lunch, this is a banquet,” Weiss said in awe of all this food.
“You’ve never made this much food before,” Blake murmured, unsure of how to feel about this.
“Woo! Thanks, Mrs B!” Yang called out as she raced for a seat.
“Yeah, thanks a bunch!” Ruby cheered as she joined Yang. Soon enough, everyone was seated at the table and digging in. The only one with any kind of long term restraint was Ghira, only eating enough to feel satisfied, and he still had plenty to eat, owing to his size. However, that was still dwarfed by how much the others ate of the smorgasbord of food.
Unsurprisingly, Weiss ate the least, barely straining her combat skirt with her small but stuffed belly. She just didn’t have the stomach to keep up with the rest of her team or Kali. She barely even kept up with Ghira, and that was with her eating as much as she could. She did feel somewhat conflicted about her sudden onset of gluttony, but Kali was right, she could afford to cut loose and enjoy all this food while she was here. After all, with how much everyone else was eating, they were hardly in a position to judge, and they would all have agreed that this food was incredible.
Ruby and Yang were next in terms of how much they ate, with Yang just barely edging out her sister. Ruby undid her corset partway through, making her belly look significantly larger all of a sudden, though still not enough to catch up to the taut globe that Yang was sporting under her jacket, which she unzipped for similar reasons to Ruby. Both of them came into this feeling very confident about how much they could eat, but they had to admit that they were humbled by the Belladonna women and their capacity for gluttony. Ruby simply enjoyed feeling full and was eager for more food when her stomach could handle it, but Yang wanted to see if she could catch up to Blake and Kali before she left, just to see if she could.
Blake led Team RWBY in this feast, to no one’s surprise. She always had been the biggest eater in the team or at least tied with Yang, but today she blew the rest of the team out of the water with how much she ate. Her belly sat heavily on her wide lap, going from its normal soft roundness to a more top-heavy belly, with the top part taut and smooth from her stuffed stomach and her lower part almost forming a lower roll. Fortunately, her cropped top was so easily pushed higher by her growing belly that it didn’t cause any discomfort. When she leaned back in her seat, basking in her fullness, she winced slightly at how the chair creaked from the shifted weight. She hardly needed the reminder of how big she was, as her saddlebag hips spilling over the sides of her seat did that just fine.
If Blake was big, however, Kali was massive. With the incredible amount of food she ate, her belly now resembled a yoga ball in size and shape. Her lower roll almost completely disappeared, only appearing at her sides as her belly filled out. Her belly got so big that she had to shift her extra-wide seat back a little in order to not be squeezed between it and the table. Her round face was the picture of bliss as she relaxed in her seat, both enjoying eating all that incredible food, and seeing how much Team RWBY ate.
“Looks like I did a good job,” Kali mused aloud as she rested her hand atop her taut ball of a belly.
“Maybe too good,” Weiss groaned, rubbing her belly.
“I haven’t eaten like that… well… since I left,” Blake admitted.
“Now I get how you were bigger before you came to Beacon. If I ate like this all the time, I’d be huge,” Ruby commented.
“Yeah, everyone would look tiny compared to me,” Yang concurred.
“Well, hopefully, dinner will be just as good,” Kali said with a nod. “I suppose I should start on that soon.”
Dinner turned out to be just as much of a mountain of food, with the leftovers from lunch reincorporated into another meal. In fact, every meal at the Belladonna household was like that, a mountain of food, made partly from the previous meal’s leftovers, and every single meal was incredible. Ghira was the only one who could maintain any kind of restraint in the face of such wonderful food, and that lack of restraint quickly showed on the others, and was impossible to miss by the time Team RWBY was leaving.
Weiss was, unsurprisingly, the smallest of the team as they left. As much as she enjoyed eating all this food, she just didn’t have the stomach capacity to put away as many calories as the rest of the team did. That didn’t mean her gains were unnoticeable though. The easiest change to spot was her belly, which had grown into a large potbelly that shot out past her breasts and jiggled with every step she took. Emphasising that gain more was her waist sash. Weiss was unsure of where to put it, either having it below her belly and propping her belly up, while fitting comfortably, or having it around her belly, where it dug in uncomfortably, but at least it didn’t make her belly appear any more prominent. Her belly may have taking the most of her gains, but it wasn’t the only part of her that gained. Her breasts grew to the size of Yang’s, at least before they came to the Belladonna household, and her thighs, hips, and rear all plumped up rather noticeably, to the point where Weiss constantly felt like she had to tug down on her combat skirt to keep herself decent. Even her jawline, previously sharp enough to cut someone, had visibly softened under a slight layer of fat. Despite all these changes, Weiss wasn’t quite sure how to feel about it all. It was a complete and utter failure in restraint, but, gods, she had never enjoyed food like this in her life, neither in quantity nor quality. One consolation she had, at least, was that the others had gotten much, much bigger than her.
The shortest way to describe Ruby’s gains was that she basically turned into a shorter, human version of Blake. She picked up Blake’s incredibly wide hips, much wider than her torso, flabby thighs, prominent rear, round, soft belly, and chunky arms. The only noticeable differences between the old Blake and the new Ruby was Ruby’s face being chubbier and rounder, with her second chin coming in, and her breasts, and that was because Ruby’s breasts actually ended up bigger than Blake’s had been, likely due to her Xiao-Long genes if Yang was anything to judge by. Ruby no longer wore her corset done up, having it about as loose as possible to give her belly as much room as possible. That and her cloak was about all of what she could keep as they were from her outfit, as her ballooning bottom and belly made her old clothes far, far too small for her to remain decent. Kali had been kind enough to get larger clothes for those who needed them, and Ruby was one who had taken Kali up on her offer, though she had done her best to keep her outfit as close to her original as possible. Beyond that, she wasn’t particularly concerned about her weight gain. Despite her legs being thicker than most people, she was still quick as a bullet, and her added mass meant she hit just as hard as one. Plus, all this incredible food, it reminded her a little bit of home, just with much, much larger quantities of food.
Yang, who had been similarly reminded of home by all this incredible food, just barely edged out Ruby as the bigger of the sisters. While she didn’t quite have Ruby’s hips or rear, she was hardly slacking below her constantly undone belt. In fact, she had such large thighs, hips, and rear, that her pants were now basically skin-tight, as she had not at all taken Kali up on her offer of larger clothes. Another victim of her expanding body and refusal to get larger clothes was her jacket, which was permanently unzipped but not open, as the slider was keeping the very bottom of it closed. With the jacket mostly open, her breasts, which had ballooned to about the size of watermelons, if not larger, were a lot more comfortable and less compacted. It also helped that the one thing Yang agreed to let Kali buy for her was bigger underwear, so her melons weren’t being squeezed constantly by a bra at the wrong end of the alphabet. Her jacket had always shown her midriff, so with her gains, it basically ended up showing off most of her belly, which had grown wide and flabby, in contrast to Ruby and Weiss’ roundness. A lower roll was starting to come in for Yang’s belly, as it hung over the waistband of her pants and gave her love handles and a deep navel. Her second chin had also come in, though it wasn’t quite as noticeable as Ruby’s, nor was Yang’s face quite as round and fat as Ruby’s, even if Yang outdid Ruby in most other regards. Yang had always had a gluttonous side, so this was just her getting a chance to really let loose with mountains of incredible food. Getting to show her sister who was the bigger eater in their impromptu eating contests was also fun, so Yang couldn’t really say she regretted this.
The biggest in the team remained Blake, as she ballooned to roughly the size of her mother, gaining her mother’s hallway-filling hips, her thick lower belly roll, ham hock arms and tree trunk thighs. It was like her body was ready to gain, considering how quickly she got so big. Blake had the feeling her gluttony was hereditary, and this only confirmed it. There were still some surprises for Blake, like how Yang ended up with bigger boobs than her in the end, despite Blake overall being much bigger than her, or how Blake managed to just barely avoid getting a second chin, even as her cheeks grew chubby, her jawline grew softer, and her face grew rounder. Blake had no choice but to size up all of her clothes, there was no way she could cram herself into her clothes anymore, not at this size. She didn’t entirely approve of her mother getting everything super stretchy for her, as she planned to get her eating back under control when she got back to Beacon. She had already been the heaviest student at Beacon when she left, the only differences now were that second place was her partner and the numbers were much higher now. Even with the annoyance of having to slim down yet again, she couldn’t honestly say she didn’t enjoy her time at home. It was nice seeing her parents again and introducing her team to them, and her mother’s food was as incredible as ever, even if it made her the blimp she had been trying to avoid becoming and made her team extra large too.
As big as Blake was now, she couldn’t hold a candle to how big Kali had gotten, thanks to enjoying her own food a lot too much. Kali’s hips now even filled the widest hallways in the house, while supporting thighs even thicker than pudgy Weiss’ whole body and a rear that Kali occasionally used as an emergency carrying tray. Her belly, which only spent a few moments after waking up not filled to the brim, had ballooned up and out, while the lower roll grew thick and large as it cascaded down over the waistband of her massively upsized hakama, down past her thighs and knees, all the way down to brush against the ground when she waddled around. Her belly often entered rooms well before the rest of her, especially when her hips got stuck in the doorway. Her massive gut, as well as the beachball sized breasts it propped up, made cooking a fair bit more challenging than it used to be, but she didn’t mind the challenge. After all, the alternative was Ghira cooking, and she enjoyed cooking too much to hand that over to him. When everyone upsized their clothes, Kali of course got hers bigger too. She ditched anything that was meant to be a slim fit, like her arm warmers and the black and gold shrug. That was definitely for the best, as her massive arms had a deep fold around the elbows that her arm warmers would absolutely have gotten caught in, and her fat chins had merged into her neck and shoulders, meaning that anything with a higher, snug collar, like her shrug, would just end up digging in uncomfortably. If anyone here was happiest about their gains, it likely would have been Kali. The only thing she enjoyed more than cooking was eating, most of all eating with others, and that was what she had basically spent the last little while doing almost non-stop. She had never really had the excuse to truly gorge herself like this, although, with how Ghira was looking at her now, she realised that she never really needed the excuse.
As Ghira helped Kali slowly waddle to the home’s main entrance, Team RWBY followed behind. The pace was dreadfully sluggish, although they knew to expect it with how slow and lumbering Kali had become over this visit. They had to admit, they weren’t as quick as they used to be either, and didn’t mind the leisurely walk out of the house. As they got to the door, Kali slowly turned around, her plush rear bumping into the door as she made a quiet yelp of surprise.
“Oops, that door snuck up on me,” she joked as she put her arms out. “Now, come here, I have to give you all goodbye hugs.” She beckoned for the team to come in, and Ruby, being the quickest, and Weiss, being the lightest, got there first. Kali wrapped her pillowy arms around them, pulling them into her extra plush belly. Ruby got a faceful of boob and had her air accidentally cut off, while Weiss blushed up a storm. “Now, Weiss, dear, if you ever want a chance to enjoy your food without judgement, you’re always welcome here,” Kali reassured.
“Th-thank you, Kali,” Weiss got out, realising she had some things to think about later.
“And Ruby, it’s always wonderful to have such an enthusiastic eater here,” Kali continued, releasing Ruby from the marshmallow-soft encasing that was smothering her.
“Need… air…” Ruby gasped as she staggered away. Next came Yang, who wrapped Kali in as tight a hug as the two women’s bellies would allow.
“Oh, I need more huggers like you in my life. If you’re ever around, I’ll happily give you food for more hugs like this,” Kali cheered as she hugged as hard as she could.
“If you keep that promise, you’re gonna have to roll me outta here someday,” Yang half-joked. After releasing that powerful hug, Blake sidled up to her mother, who reached out for a gentle hug. Unfortunately, the two of them had gotten too fat for this, although that was more on Kali than Blake, meaning that the two of them couldn’t make their arms reach around each other. The two of them had to make do with only reaching the sides of each other’s immense bodies.
“Blake, dear, you’re growing into a wonderful woman, and I couldn’t be prouder of you,” Kali said sincerely.
“Maybe too much of a woman,” Blake murmured.
“Oh, nonsense. You’re not even close to my size, and I was even bigger than this before I had you,” Kali casually dismissed, giving the side of her belly a hearty slap.
“O-oh? I didn’t know that,” Blake replied, as she rested her hands on top of her meaty lower roll. Like Weiss, she had some things to think about when she got back to Beacon. Maybe losing all this weight as soon as possible wasn’t in her plans after all. Then again, with the possibility of more visits in the future, losing so much weight wasn’t very likely for any of the team.
