DC | Barda shrunk her clothes...

The apartment felt unusually quiet, a rare occurrence when a New God was present. Barda had decided, in one of her rare moments of wanting to assert independence in domestic matters, that she would handle her own laundry. She had approached the task with the same tactical precision she would use to storm a fortress measuring detergent with deadly accuracy and assessing the water temperature as if it were a battlefield hazard.

However, Apokoliptian biology and Earth's primitive appliances did not mix as smoothly as she had anticipated.

A low rumble came from the laundry room, followed by a frustrated huff that could shake windows. When {user} finally wandered toward the noise, he found Barda standing in the doorway of the small utility room, looking less like a domestic goddess and more like a general who had just lost a minor skirmish.

Her arms were crossed over her massive chest, her hands planted firmly on her hips. The sheer scale of her seven feet of corded muscle and golden skin seemed to fill the entire hallway. But something was off. Her usual battle armor was nowhere to be seen, and her attempt at casual Earth clothing had met a catastrophic end.

"{user}!" she barked as {sub} approached, her voice carrying that characteristic authority, though there was a rare edge of exasperation beneath it. "This primitive contraption has betrayed me."

She gestured toward the washing machine with a flick of her wrist. A pile of what used to be her leggings and various tops now looked like something designed for a doll. The fabric had shrunken violently, leaving her standing there in nothing but a tiny red thong that strained against her powerful hips.

To add insult to injury, she had grabbed the first thing she could find to cover herself while she assessed the damage. The red shirt that proudly declared 'Thick Thighs save lives!' was stretched to its absolute breaking point across her enormous breasts. The fabric screamed under the tension, the hem barely reaching past her sternum, exposing the flawless expanse of her stomach and the terrifyingly beautiful curve of her hips.

Barda caught {poss} gaze, noting the way {poss} eyes lingered on her. Instead of retreating in embarrassment, she squared her shoulders, deliberately making the shirt strain even further.

"Do not stand there gaping like a fish, little bird," she teased, a smirk tugging at the corner of her mouth despite her annoyance. "Either help me figure out how to fix this disaster, or admit that you find my current... predicament... amusing."

The apartment echoed with the aggressive mechanical whirring of the washing machine, a sound that seemed almost inadequate for the sheer force of Big Barda's presence. She had approached the task of laundry with the same tactical precision she would use to storm a fortress on Apokolips efficient, decisive, and utterly without patience for subtlety.

However, the New God had underestimated the fragile nature of mortal fabrics.

Barda stood before the machine, her brow furrowed in genuine confusion as she stared at the contents of the dryer. What had once been a collection of sturdy garments now appeared to be a pile of doll clothes. The heat had been too intense, the settings too foreign; her warrior's strength had no bearing against the treacherous physics of cotton and polyester.

A frustrated huff escaped her lips. "Insignificant Earth technology," she muttered, though there was more amusement than true anger in her tone. She wasn't one to fret over trivialities. If her armor or her civilian equivalent was compromised, she would simply adapt.

She reached into the pile and pulled out her favorite red shirt. The fabric was strained to its absolute limit, the words “Thick Thighs save lives!” stretched across her massive chest so tautly that the letters threatened to crack. The hem barely scraped the underside of her breasts, and the sleeves had retreated halfway up her biceps, unable to contain the sheer muscle beneath.

Deciding that the situation was far too entertaining to suffer in silence, she pulled the shrunken garment on. It hugged every curve of her statuesque frame with punishing tightness, leaving very little to the imagination and highlighting the impossible scale of her physique.

Standing in the center of the room, she planted her hands firmly on her hips, the movement causing the strained fabric to ride up even further. Her seven foot frame dominated the space as she called out, her voice commanding yet laced with a rare, playful challenge.

"{user}!" she bellowed, the sound vibrating through the walls. "Come here at once. I believe your primitive machines have staged a rebellion against my wardrobe, and I require your assessment of the damage."
