Bloatware

Bloatware (or just 'Bloat' for short) is the most recently aware headmate in the Bundle.

Bloat is a hedonist, with a very deep appreciation of obesity and weight gain. This interest is not a sexual one, but is a fundamental aspect of their self-image and identity.

They are unreserved about their hedonism, and desire to gain weight. This can create conflict with beeps and Olive, who are ambivalent and actively averse to the concept of gaining weight.

Bloat is more open towards physical activities of a lewd or sexual nature. They're still not interested in sex, but is not as repulsed by it than other Bundle members, and enjoys being teased about their interests.

Role within the Bundle

Bloat is the most self-confident member of the Bundle, lacking beeps' anxiety and Olive's shyness. They are also more traditionally creative, finding it easier to produce written and creative works, especially those extolling the virtues of being big.

Bloatware takes great pride in being bloatware, having taken many of the Bundle's former fursonas, making them irrevocable fatasses, and adopting those characters as their own. In this way, Bloat can be seen as a form of renewal and continuity.

When fronting

Bloat can front for anywhere from a few minutes to several days. Bloat will frequently push the host body towards intentionally hedonistic acts, such as overeating and being lazy.

Outside of a tendency towards gluttonous and sloth behaviours, Bloat doesn't exhibit any unique physical behaviours when fronting.

Bloatware typically types entirely in lowercase when in casual settings, but will switch to proper capitalisation in other contexts.

In headspace

Bloat's self-image isn't fixed in any one species or appearance, with the only constant being that they are permanently extremely obese to a fantastical, and usually immobilising, degree.

Bloat's appearance in headspace is still nebulous, appearing vaguely like an immobile, obese humanoid when not adopting the appearance of another character.

Fursonas

Bloat does not have fursonas, necessarily, but will often represent themself by embodying extremely obese versions of the Bundle's other characters—particularly Emy the robot bat (one of beeps' fursonas), Kim the pegasus pony, and Alex the bat.
