Becoming the New Mascot Pt 2
🕑 Added 2023-12-14 21:40:13 +0000 UTCHey everyone. So this is the second part of the Christmas themed items I have for you all this year. I got to work with the very talented Vetoknox for the first time and his art work is as good as advertised.
This is a six part sequence that I will be posting for FREE on this site and my other platforms. I just wanted to thank everyone for their support and kind words over the years.
The Murd story/illustrated novel will be released closer to Christmas and will be behind the pay wall.
If you haven't already, check Vetoknox out and support them anyway you can.
Thanks again.

Alexis groaned as she walked through the crowded street, anxious to get to her gym. She had just left work for the day and was ready to unwind with a quick workout before heading home to get some sleep. She didn’t know why she was so tired these past few weeks, but it was playing havoc on her schedule and work. She couldn’t concentrate as well as she used to at work, prompting some of her bosses to ask if she was ok. She assured them she was, but she did seem a little out of it. She had even gone to the doctor, but he ruled out any illness very quickly.
It had carried over to her workouts, as she had only gone twice since getting the free coffee and donut coupon. Even when she did go, she found that after only a few minutes she was sweating and drained, requiring her to take frequent breaks to the point she was resting more than exercising. She found herself having no energy during the week and spent the weekends trying to sleep to gather it back. No matter how much sleep she did though, she found by Monday she was once again functioning on fumes. She just hoped it would go away soon as she wanted to get back on track.
As she walked down the street, she tugged on her skirt, annoyed with how tight it felt. She felt the same tightness in her shirt and untucked it, hoping it would help. It did, but the sleeves were still snug as well. In fact, as she cursed to herself, she recalled that all of her clothes were like that these days.
“I need to complain to the super, those washing machines are ruining all my clothes”, she thought to herself as she maneuvered through other furs leaving work.
The doe glanced up to see she was close to the gym, when she almost bumped into a large elephant. She stumbled briefly, and then regained her footing. She didn’t realize what animal had almost knocked her down, and was rather annoyed.
“Hey, why don’t you watch where you’re going you…”
Alexis looked up and realized that it was an elephant standing in front of her, and a rather plump one at that. She quickly went into apologizing mode, not wanting to piss off the larger fur.
“Oh. I, well, I uh.”
The elephant smiled, apparently unphased by what had just happened.
“It’s ok miss. I take up a large amount of space”, he chuckled. “Are you ok?”
“Yeah, I’m fine. Sorry, I was just in my own head.”
“No need to apologize. I’m just doing my job. Which actually.”
The elephant thrust his meaty hand forward, which contained a piece of paper, which was almost like a miniscule piece of paper, even though it was bigger than a dollar bill.
Alexis saw the writing on the document and recognized the font. It was for that donut shop she had gone to a few weeks back. This time, the coupon said, “Buy one specialty donut, get a free coffee and standard donut free”.
“I, I’m not much of a donut person. Sorry.”
“I get it, I’m more of a burger person myself. And, wait a second. You look like the mascot, the “Lounging Reindeer!”
He held up the coupon, which showed a reindeer in what appeared to be a bathing suit, stuffing it’s face with donuts, a big smile on it’s face.
“That, erm, that doesn’t look like me”, she stammered.
“Well, you’re right, you’re a lot thinner, not a reindeer, and, if I’m not mistaken, the Lounging Reindeer is a guy. Or, maybe not. I don’t know that much.”
“That’s, that’s nice, but I really need to get going.”
She was about to try and go past him, but she got bumped by a buck and ended up right back in front of the massive creature, it’s hand still outstretched.
“I get it, I try cutting back on the sweets too every now and then. But, give them to someone in your building, or a friend. We have excellent coffee at “North Pole Donuts”. What do you have to lose?”
The doe had to admit that when she had their coffee last, it was very good. So good in fact that she had gone in a few days later for another cup. Since then she had tried to ignore it, but now, as she stood face to face with the coupon, she felt her hand reach for the coupon to accept it.
“See? Not so hard. Go enjoy your coffee! Maybe you’ll get something extra since you look a little like the mascot!”
He turned back around to peddle more of his wares as Alexis looked down at the coupon.
“I’ll just go in to grab a cup and then head to the gym, it’ll keep me awake anyway.”

Alexis got to the donut shop, which was rather busy. Even though it was close to dinner time, it seemed many furs were eager to get their fill of donuts.
“Hmph, no self-control on any of them”, she said, the fact that her clothes were at least two sizes too small on her larger frame not registering with her. She absent mindedly scratched her softer rear, once again annoyed as she felt her skirt dig in tightly to her plumper cheeks and fleshier waist.
After a few minutes, Alexis was finally at the front of the line, her coupon in hand. A very fat wolf smiled at her as she closed the register from the last customer, her fat arm quaking as she did. Alexis figured this wolf was even larger than the elephant she just bumped into.
“Welcome to North Pole Donuts, home of the Iceberg Donut.”
“Yeah, hi. I’ll get a large coffee, touch of skim milk and one sugar. As for the donuts, I guess.”
“One brookie bar donut and a strawberry frosted, right?”
Alexis was confused.
“What?”
“That’s your usual order, right? A brookie bar donut and a strawberry frosted one”, the employee continued.
“Um, I think you have me confused with someone else. I’ve only been here two times before and only once did I order a donut.”
As she tried reasoning with the wolf, a large owl made it’s way to the counter with a bag in it’s hand.
“Here’s your order miss, just prepping the coffee now. Thanks.”
“I, I don’t have a usual. I don’t know what’s going on here.”
The wolf and owl looked at her puzzled, not understanding the statement at all.
“Ok miss. You are in here rather regularly but if you say otherwise, sure. It’s still though 2.25 for the two donuts and the coffee with the coupon.”
Alexis glanced back at the bag, which looked puffed out due to the size of the brookie donut. She didn’t know why but something about the size of the bag and how large that one donut was to her seemed familiar, but she couldn’t place it. She had probably seen it in an ad or something, as she had never purchased it before. Still, she really wanted the coffee, and just swiped her debit card and took her goodies.
“See you again soon. Or not”, the wolf said, laughing.
“I doubt it.”
Alexis did not understand what the hell had just happened, but all of those thoughts left her mind the moment she sipped on her coffee. The coffee was very good, a little rich as if they had added something other than skim. It was delicious though and she quickly took another slurp. It was just so tasty.
“This should get me ready for the gym”, she thought as she walked back in the direction of her gym.
However, as she got closer, she looked back at the bag containing the donuts. Clearly, she couldn’t enter such a facility with those confectionary delights, and she had paid for them, which would be a sin to just throw them away. No, she had to get back to her building first and give them away, that was only right.
“Shouldn’t waste money like this, besides, it’s better if I finish my coffee first and then come back. Just in time for the caffeine to kick in.”
Alexis walked past her gym and back towards her apartment, unaware that those donuts would only be going in her stomach
