So! Vore. Vore is a weird fantasy, and I think any and all of us here are aware of that. It's just not something that can be done in real life: people can't swallow other people, people can't become giants, people can't shrink -- there are no real-life non-gruesome outlets for the Being Eaten By People kink.
Swallowing objects, on the other hand? Another story entirely. Nothing you have portrayed in this strip so far is something that could not happen in real life, so it hits that sweet spot where fantasy and realism collide. The thrill is visceral and real. This could be happening in a teacher's lounge RIGHT NOW for all we know.
If there were any part of this that were unrealistic, I would say it was the bulge in the last panel - a certain amazing woman posted several youtube videos after swallowing 40 marbles some years ago, and there wasn't any visible evidence -- only audible evidence as she shook them around inside herself and... and... excuse me, I drifted off for a second there. (Come baaaaack, Kate..!)
But! But! Even then, you did something that a lot of vore artists do NOT do, and that was put the bulge higher up -- you know, where the actual stomach is -- so even the unreal part was realistic, for however much sense that makes. A lot of vore artists make a full belly basically look like a pregnant belly, and that's fine -- but I also dig it when someone pays the extra attention to anatomy and portrays a stuffed stomach at stomach height.
Now, all of that said, I'm guessing based on the tags that we will eventually veer away from being completely rooted in reality, and that's fine. If our lad ends up following the marbles into their new home, or something similar, I will have no complaints.
Anyway, I'm rambling. This is awesome, and it's almost like you drew this strip just for me (though if you had, the student would have been female -- yeah, I'm a niche audience within a niche audience, sue me).
The best part, though? For me, anyway? I'm sure a lot of your viewers will be identifying with the young man, and vicariously living out this fantasy through him. Not me, though -- my vicarious fantasy character is the teacher. I don't want to be there watching her and feeding her - I want to BE her. You're making something here that speaks to both ends of the fantasy, and you deserve much praise for it.
So what's to come next? Based on some of your other work, nudity is not out of the question, so maybe we'll get that magical combination of boobs and bulge before it's all over. I hope plenty of attention is played to the noisy stomach, as well, but this is your work, not mine. I'm sure whatever is to follow will be something amazing.
WOw, Kate, can I call ya Kate? Is that your name or just a figure of speech? Haha.
This is all so flattering. I checked your profile and to hear such words from someone that's been around the block for a while is so flattering!
I will cross the realism threshold quite soon, actually. You're right, in real life marbles would never make distinct bulges like that, which is unfortunate because I was spoiled by cartoons that made me believe they were such a thing! A lack of bulge to me is almost a waste of time, which is why all my preds get at least a little bit of volume.
When it gets too extreme it also loses a bit of it's appeal to me, so I've been exploring that limit in this comic. It's all about projection for me. It's a very self indulgent experience, since I've never done such an effort for anything else before. This comic may even get a bit crazy in the end, I might tie it to my own "cinematic universe" (lol) of sorts, but I don't want to get ahead of myself or to make it stupid big. I want to make this story self aware for how absurd it is, despite how realistic I still try to make it.
I'm really happy there's an audience that enjoys so many of the things I do, for I often also feel like a niche within a niche, like you said it yourself. I'm much less picky with genders since I think I'm a bit bisexual? Idk. The teacher character is not a self insert for me but is definitely a mary sue, and some things come up that I'm sure you'll be pleased with. ;)
So yea, stay tuned! I'm getting anxious to post the next pages but I also gotta work on them!!! AHH it's so exciting!!
And no, I'm not Kate - I was referring to a woman who did some marble-swallowing YouTube vids a few years ago, before leaving and saying she couldn't keep doing vore due to personal reasons. I'm just Aro, who lives in the fringes and writes stories sometimes. (I wrote a lot of the garden content for RAADD Runner back before it went on hiatus.)

Whoa, that's quite the bulge on the last panel. Those must be some big and heavy marbles. I wonder how they feel in there.

I'm looking forward to what's in store.

Ahhhhh, I get it. Haha, alright Aro. I'm honestly pretty new to scene, lurking for some years now. I don't even know what RAADD is!
