Doesn't the Treatment give abs, too? Or is it just arm muscles?
Ever heard of a "muscle-gut"?

Isn't that because of the fat still in your stomach that somehow hasn't been burnt away?
I'm ignorant. Educate me.
Doesn't the Treatment just burn through due to needing all those calories for the ensuing transformation?
Muscles and fat aren't necessarily mutually exclusive.
It is mentioned to be a backfire effect, like the cowmazon variant or faux-cow variant or the cum-cow variant.
How interesting. If that fact is taken into account, it probably wouldn't even be a variant in the end.
Also, is the "extreme fat burn" being a backfire mentioned when getting the rare variants during the Treatment or is it mentioned elsewhere?
The "rare variants" ARE canonically backfires of the Treatment.
I know they're backfires. I'm talking about the fat burn during all the variants.
Why would the rare variants burn fat faster than the regular variants?
Why would the Treatment turn females into amazons and males into faux cows?
And what does this have to do with musclegut?
If fat and muscle aren't "mutually exclusive" as you claim, then it should be possible to already get a muscle-gut just from the regular Treatment variant. It'd make Altair happy, but it probably wouldn't be notable enough to be a variant.
As for amazons and faux-cows, that's a good question, but wouldn't answer my question. Even if they're "rare" variants, it wouldn't explain why they burn through fat faster than the "regular" variants.
I was referring to how muscle guts work in real life, but I suppose it could be a a chance proc of the normal bull variant.
Because space magic nanomachines, son!
TiTS is soft SciFi.
Also, I've been thinking, and something just occurred to me that may make muscle-guts in the game... problematic:
Can the PC even get a gut?
If you have 100 tone and 100 thickness apparently you have the "strongman physique"
Also there IS a bellyRating variable on your character although it is currently only used in pregnancies and cumflation.
Ah. I guess it would be an additional chance for normal male variant.
Also, I've been thinking some more. About the nanomachines. Have to get it out of my head. What if the fat was not just for muscle and height growth, but to power the nanomachines? Then it would make sense. Nanomachines are programmed give the variant to the corresponding gender they've been injected into.
But what if they recognize gender by reading the hormone imbalance first, then gender physiology? Then it'd explain why the "rare" variants would burn more fat than the regulars. They read the hormones, thinking it's one gender, but the host physiology says it's another gender. It's not within the usual scope of the machines, so they have to "think," if you will, on how to make it all work. This push the processors beyond what's usually necessary and would have to burn even more fat for the extra energy required, thus the "extreme fat burn."
That or I'm explaining nothing of value. Take your pick.
On to another topic: Super varmints. Big T thinks they exist. Does anyone else thing so?
He doesn't think they exist, he knows for certain that they existed before, in the early years of NT's colonization. And since Tee only talks about them in past tense, I assume they were eventually wiped out by the colonists.

If it happened one or two years ago in TiTs time, that would make sense. Reason I'm bringing it up because if you talk to Zephyr about how she got her job, she pretty says somewhere that Big T wouldn't listen to her about how bad the Treatment was because of "super-varmints or some shit."
Supersized anything generally doesn't last long once humans enter its habitat.
Damn. And here I was, hoping for a super-varmint threat we couldass whoopdesperately fend off.
The gut/dad-bod thing sounds like a straight-up backfire in the physical sense, considering the Treatment is supposed to make you a horny Adonis or Aphrodite.
I had meant musclegut, forgot the muscle part. But yeah, it'd be a backfire. While the Bull variant makes males wanna fuck everything, the Daddy variant would keep that, but also have the affinity to stay and raise a kid they made, hell, Dad-Bulls would probably raise kids that aren't theirs. I guess some of the key mental effects would be the urge to make a kid, raise said kid, and also make dad jokes in the process.
Even though the Bulls of NT are "sweet as candy to any kid" according to Reaha, they don't seem too concerned with raising them.
I see what you mean. In all honesty, I'm surprised that isn't part of the regular Treatment variant as it is.
Side question: How easily accessible would New Texas have to hardlight equipment?

Big T is also extremely laid back about the fact that he has an army of bastards he know next to nothing about running around somewhere; he seemingly doesn't legally recognize any of them or support them in any way.I think that's more due to the nature of the game. It's easier to keep children a mile away from the sexy content than have to constantly fend off requests from pedos.
Him and pretty much everybody else with a penis. It's kind of weird how there's just some people running around with enough offspring to qualify as their own population group.Big T is also extremely laid back about the fact that he has an army of bastards he know next to nothing about running around somewhere; he seemingly doesn't legally recognize any of them or support them in any way.
