A pesky dragonfly -A grrside story- "Still fifteen minutes until the game finishes updating for me, Ranito." "Geez, the servers sure are slow today." Replied the 22 years old frog to his wireless headset. "At this rate the spring break is going to be over before we can play a single match." "Haha, cut the crap. I know you live on an eternal holiday, playing video games on your naked ass all year round." "That's not true..." The frog said, the permanent blush getting redder and redder on his face. He couldn't believe his friend though so low of him. "...I'm not naked. I'm wearing briefs." Said the amphibian as he adjusted his tight underwear. The yellow briefs he wore exposed his thick green tights completely, and the putrid fluids his cloaca wouldn't stop leaking like a broken faucet had left lots of stains on each and every piece of the frog's underwear. In fact, the yellow briefs he was wearing at the moment used to be white. The frog scratched his bottom as he lay on his bed and lifted his thick legs, leaving his smelly webbed feet resting on the edge of his bed. The smell of his dirty soles reached the frog's nostrils even with his head laying on the pillow. The frog took a deep breath to enjoy it's own body odor. "Hehehe, you're probably smelling your own stink once again." "Whoa, I forgot I still had my headset turned on..." The frog blushed even more. "Yeah, spring's already here, so right now my skin is as wet and slippery as the frog I am, haha." The voice behind the headset laughed with him. Ranito was glad to have such a nice friend, although it was true that he was drenched with sweat. The obese frog's moobs were accumulating a lot of sweat below them, and his dark-framed glasses were constantly getting damp. "I think I'm going to open the window a little bit before I turn into a puddle of water." "Ok, but be careful or you'll catch a cold." Summoning all of his strength, the frog lifted his heavy body mass from the comfort of the bed and opened the window just enough so a cold current of air entered in. "Damn, this consumed all of my stamina, I'd better eat something before I fall unconscious." Said the frog to the mic, half-joking, half-serious. The frog searched through his drawers and there it was! His favourite brand of potato chips, "CrunchyBuggies"! They had been designed for insectivores in mind, so each of them had the form of a different kind of bug. Of course, they only *looked* like insects, they were made of whatever industrial crap all potato chips were made from. Yet little children and Ranito loved them. Just seeing the plastic bag made the frog's tongue sprout out and drip a giant drop of saliva into the floor. He grabbed the bag and... "NOOOO!!!!!!" Cried the frog in terror. "What happened?!" "The bag of potato chips...It's only half full..." Said the frog, his soul succuming to eternal darkness. "Well, why don't you enjoy what's left of it?" "But the flies and the dragonflies are all gone...There's just worms and ladybugs left..." "Hehehehe. Dude, they all taste the same." Said the voice from the headset finding the frog's gluttony amusing. Reluctantly the frog threw his fat body into the bed almost breaking it and started eating the bag of chips, enjoying every single bite yet yearning for more.

High over the streets outside, a small dragonfly was flying with a worried look on his diminutive yellow eyes. "I have no choice but to admit it, I'm lost..." Thought the small insect. He examined the little map his mother had drew for him, but had absolutely no idea what all those strange symbols meant. "This thing would be much easier to understand if I knew how to read..." Danjim the dragonfly was a small insect in a giant world. He wasn't an anthropomorphic insect at all, he was the size of any regular dragonfly you can find anywhere. If he weren't able to talk, you wouldn't have ever noticed the small thing at all. But he wanted to prove to the world that he could be helpful despite his tiny size, and he insisted to his mother to let him do the errands alone. He finally convinced her, but the words she said to him before he left still left him feeling uneasy. "Don't talk to any strangers," she had said "they may seem friendly at first, but even the silliest-looking creature can swallow you whole." Danjim thought she was just exaggerating so he'd change his mind and stay refugiated at home, but he couldn't stay with his mother all his life! Yet, he was now lost. He was on his way toward the supermarket when an almost imperceptible swift current of air and caused the tiny bug boy to spiral out of control and caused him to lose all sense of direction. Her mother had said not to talk to strangers, but she hadn't said anything about asking a stranger for directions didn't she? The small bug flew into the streets, but he was too small to push the buzzer on any of the houses, and the only person he saw was a teenage spider that despite his young looks looked terrifying to the small dragonfly. He didn't like all those red-colored eyes and the sharp-looking teeth the arachnid had. "May I help you something little guy?" Said the spider when he saw the agitated insect looking at him. "I...I...Wahhhh!" Danjim cried flying into the air. "He must be just shy." Said the young spider as he kept on with his life. The insect's small face was blushing ashamed. The spider must have been felt insulted just then, Danjim felt so guilty he felt like he was about to cry the smallest tears in the world. But then he noticed it. The window of one of the nearby houses was slightly open. Maybe, just maybe, they'd let him use the phone so he could call his family to pick him up. But who'd live there? Nobody nearly as scary as that spider, the dragonfly hoped. Danjim flew near the window and shyly peeked inside the bedroom. The only person in there was a comically overweight frog who wore glasses. He seemed to be eating potato chips. Danjim loved potato chips, his little stomach could become full with just a single one of them, but that wasn't the right time to think about food. When the insect saw the frog eat one of the chips, he noticed that the amphibian had no teeth on his mouth at all and his eyes were bright yellow, just like Danjim's. It was funny how the frog crunched the potato chips with his gums, even the little Danjim had tiny bitty mandibles. That's right, he had more scary-looking teeth than the frog. Danjim almost laughed out loud at that thought...It was impossible such a silly, harmless-looking person could turn out to be dangerous at all. The bug tapped the window twice with his fragile legs to let know the frog he had visit...

"Uh?" "What is it Ranito?" "I think I've just heard someone calling me...But I don't see anyone down the street..." Said the frog peeking outside. He heard a tiny cough. The frog looked down, a small brown bug had entered the room. "Hi! My name is Danjim!" It said in a cheerful voice. "You see...I'm kind of lost...Could you let me use the phone?" The insect's small mandibles were open-wide in what was supposed to be a smile. The smelly giant tower of a frog was flabbergasted. He didn't know talking insects even existed. The amphibian removed his headset and rubbed his auditory canals, the small buzz he had heard just now must've just some weird interference, or so he thought. The little insect hopped around the room with the help of his feeble-looking wings. "Oh, you're eating chips? Can I have a bite? I'm starving and a single crumb is enough to fill my little belly for three days!" The free-spirited bug took the liberty of entering the bag of chips. It was like exploring a cave made of plastic, the chips were gigantic in comparison to the puny bug. "Hey, this potato chip looks just like my neighbour Oscar!" Said Danjim pointing to one of the worm-shaped chips. "And that one's just like his girlfriend Emma!" He said pointing to a ladybug-shaped chip. The antennae of the insect went rigid, his "feelers" used to do that whenever he had a fearful realization. He creeped out from the plastic bag, shaking himself free from some small crumbs, and looked at the design of the bag. He couldn't read any of the letters, but there was no way to mistake the insects depicted on the bag's colorful design. They were worms, flies, ladybugs and... "D-Dragonflies?...You..." Danjim gulped. "...You eat insects?!!!" The frog took a closer look at the tiny dragonfly. The little dude was panicking, buzzing and flying in circles like mad. It was amusing, in a way. However that's when Ranito smelt the whiff. Oh god, the dragonfly had been practically swimming on potato chips, it smelled just like one of those tasty, crunchy dragonfly chips he loved so much... Danjim was sweating and he was breathing so heavily he swallowed a minuscule crumb stuck on his left mandible of what he thought were remains of his own species. He was so shocked he almost fainted, he had just eaten one of his fellow insects! "I can't believe it...I'm a cannibal...I'm so spiteful!...And worst of all, it was so crunchy and greasy! Do we all dragonflies taste like that?..." That's something Danjim had never thought about before: how did he taste? Is that why he had to escape from so many predators? Was he just a greasy delicacy to them? The dragonfly smelled one of his armpits. He sure did smell like that bag of bug meat... A giant shadow loomed over him, and he saw the frog's face staring right at him...His nostrils were sniffing him, and by the way his tongue started to hang out from his mouth with a drip of sticky and translucent fluid he indeed seemed to think he looked like a greasy delicacy. The frog started huffing and puffing in excitement, his face became all red and his goofy yellow eyes disappeared behind the screen of humidity appearing on his thick-framed glasses. He didn't seem like such a silly, harmless-looking person anymore. In fact, he spoke no intelligible words no more, he just growled an animalistic roar! The entire Earth seemed to shake when he did so. *GRRRRROOOOOOOWLLL!* Ranito patted his belly trying to calm it down. Damn, he sure he was hungry. Surely nobody will ever miss a small dragonfly, right? He had never eaten an actual insect before but damn, the guy reeked so much of potato chips the frog was starting to feel primitive urges he had never felt before. He licked his lips. Danjim saw how a giant tongue came out from the top of the mountain of green flesh and licked his already slippery face, a giant river of saliva falling down his completely bare and morbidly obese torso until it splashed into the floor right next to his body with a big splashing sound. A few droplets splatted on top of Danjim's body, and the bodily fluids smelt as disgusting as they looked. He had to get out of this monster's lair! The dragonfly hopped in the direction of the open window but something was wrong, the insect was trying with all his might to fly but he didn't manage to take off the ground, he could just jump short distances. He looked to his back and the problem was obvious: the splash of saliva had effectively glued his wings together. Ranito looked at the bug, it seemed to hop in random directions all around the room. It was like it was purposely trying to tempt him. "Teeheehee, no doubt about it, you just want to tease me don't you? Well then, you're the one asking for it!..." Ranito followed the bug around the room but just when he was about to catch it between its webbed hands it had hidden below the TV table. The frog crouched with his face next to it, but the space was too narrow, only his mouth was able to fit in it... "TEEHEEHEE, YOU CAN HIDE ALL YOU WANT BUT MY TONGUE WILL CATCH YOU EITHER WAY..." said the giant amphibian mouth. That's all Danjim could see in the dark, the enormous toothless grin which was dripping in a ocean of sticky substance. The little insect was scared for his life, he kept as far away as he could, but he was sure he was within the reach of the frog's tongue. That was his end...The yellow and green mouth opened and the giant pink snake of a tongue started slithering through the narrow space. Danjim closed his eyes and crouched. The snake found something small and with lots of logs and and twisted it in its grasp, breaking it into a million pieces. But Danjim realized he was still alive. He opened his eyes and saw the tongue had just crushed a potato chip which had been below the table for half a year. Ranito had always been a disgusting glutton, but even he could not enjoy such a dirty and hardened potato chip. He recoiled his tongue and was taken aback with the strong aftertaste. That was his chance! Danjim jumped and jumped with his newly-regained hope in direction to the window. His wings had dried, he just had to take some impulse and take off... Viewed from outside the building, a small dot could be seen leaving the frog's house through the window. Danjim reveled in his freedom. Surely he would never take such foolish risks with strangers anymore. He didn't care about groceries, he just wanted to go home and hug his mother once again. Such a shame that just then a nearly naked fatass frog jumped through the window and his tongue snatched the dragonfly mid-flight. In less than a second the insect had already traveled all the way down the frog's throat.

Danjim's eyes struggled to open. The slippery tongue had mercilessly crushed his entire insectoid body. His wings were beyond repair, they were just useless dead appendages behind his back now. His little legs were trembling and it was hard to stood up on them. Not that it mattered, the ground was full of mortal acids and trying to move on them would just quicken the insect's death. When his eyes finally opened, he just saw darkness. Then a ray of light came from the sky and illuminated his prison. Danjim didn't need to be too smart to figure out where he was, but for a second he had thought he was in hell itself. But even if the meat red breathing walls sure looked like a place taken straight out from the underworld there was no doubt he was inside the frog frog's stomach. Saliva rained from the sky, and the ray of light disappeared, leaving the insect once again in the darkness until the moment of his inevitable death. At least he would die in peace, the place was roomy and the air was warm, although the mountains of digested potato chips around him were quite stinky. The insect's little legs got hold of one of those potato chips he still thought were dead comrades. "At least you had been dead long before he ate you..." He said to the slimy crumb. "I wonder what kind of guy you used to be...What would you say to make me feel better about my fate..." Danjim sighed weakly. At least he'd been a tasty delicacy for someone. He had been useful in his life. Hadn't that been his dream all along? He should be proud he had served a purpose for a much bigger, important being. Yes, the giant frog...Danjim was sure that the frog would have much more important role to the planet, and that he should be proud he had helped him satiate his hunger...Yes...For once in his life, seconds before the acids completely digested him, the small, insignificant insect had felt proud of himself.

"Shit! I'm such an idiot!" Cried Ranito. "Why the hell did I jump out the window to eat just a tiny bug?!" The frog was crying not just because the tiny insect had tasted horrible and had barely filled him, but because he had fallen face-first into his own garden wearing only his stained underwear, which was not only publicly embarrassing, but also meant he had forgotten his keys inside the house, so he had just locked himself out from his own home. A spider-faced man started calling a pervert while the other neighbors laughed among themselves at the ridiculous sight of the actically naked full-grown frog covering his crotch with one hand and his greasy tits with another. Then he remembered...He was a frog! Surely jumping into the open window would be a piece of cake! The frog prepared himself to jump, legs spread wide and... *FAAAAAAAAAART*

The frog's embarrassment from that scandalous scene lasted for a long time, but completely cleaning up the dragonfly-shaped stain that his cloaca had sprayed on the front of his briefs on the view of the entire neighborhood took even longer.

THE END
