Description
Inflation is the act of pumping or otherwise introducing pressurized air, gas or fluid into an enclosed space in order to expand and increase its volume and size. The act of growing larger as a result of being inflated is expansion.* A sexual fetish or paraphilia for these subjects is inflatophilia. - From WikiFur
A fetish involving a character, or certain parts of a character, being inflated with air, gasses, water etc. Inflation also includes inflating a balloon.
If a character eats an excessive amount of food and becomes fat as a result of that, prefer using weight_gain instead.
[sup]* Disclaimer: For the tagging purposes of e621, expansion only refers to the growth of one particular dimension (e.g., length, width, height) or on all dimensions (i.e., total volume), commonly through the use of magic, potion, science, etc. This concept is different from inflation, which refers to the increasing overall volume of the character or body part through the introduction of various solids, fluids, or gasses.[/sup]
