A Tight Spot

"Please, Rainbow," Rarity looked at her friend, eyes as big as dinner saucers. "You're the only pony who can help me!"

Rainbow Dash--fastest pegasus in Equestria, future Wonderbolt, and definitely not a model--shook her head. "I already said no, Rarity. I'm not wearing any dresses just so you could fiddle around with it for two hours."

Rarity--acclaimed fashionista, boutique owner, and definitely not somepony who took no for an answer--let out a huff. "And I already told you I don't need you to wear it for me to 'fiddle around with' as you so aptly put it. I need you for reference and that's it."

Her eyebrow rose dubiously. Last time she was in a dress 'for reference' was around the same time as the parasprite invasion a little over a year ago. That hot, stuffy dress had stayed on her for hours, and she did not want a repeat of that.

She shifted on her cloud, finding a very comfortable spot to lie in. Just another reason to say no, really. She looked down at the unicorn below her and shook her head defiantly.

Rarity huffed again. "I'm not trying to deceive you, Rainbow, I really just need a quick reference fitting and nothing more. All I’m doing is making sure the dress looks the way I need it to be when it’s on a pony."

Rainbow winced. She didn't really have much of an excuse not to help if that was the case, but she still would rather not. "Well can't you just get one of the girls to do it?"

"Out of the question," Rarity replied. "You're the only pony I know close enough in measurements and coat color for the reference to be complete. Besides, everypony else it too busy anyway. Pinkie Pie is helping Twilight practice some magic, Applejack is neck deep in harvest season, and Fluttershy is helping some of her animal friends prepare for hibernation. I'd ask my client to model this herself, but she resides in Canterlot and I couldn't ask her to come down all this way just for this."

Rainbow pinched her lips together, still unsure if she would agree.

"Please, darling. This is a really urgent, custom order that I must have done as soon as possible. I wouldn't ask this of you if it were not so important."

Rainbow's eyes darted to the side. Rarity was really up playing this whole ordeal, which wasn't entirely unusual for her, but still…

Sighing, Rarity looked at her. "I suppose I'll have to resort to my trump card then."

Trump card? Rainbow raised her eyebrow. "What are you talking about?"

Rarity smiled now that she had Dash's attention. "Well, Rainbow, if you help me out, I promise to make it worth your while."

"How worth it?"

The corners of Rarity's lips turned upward even higher. "I might just so happen to have an extra gallon of apple cider lying around that I'd be willing to part with."

Rainbow blinked, her mouth involuntarily watering at the mention of cider. "O-Oh yeah?"

Rarity nodded, smirk on full display. She knew she won this time; all that it would take were the finishing words. "Try on the dress for me, and it's yours."

That's a pretty good trump card. Rainbow swallowed, knowing she'd have to give in now. After all, it was just one outfit. An entire gallon of cider was definitely worth it. "Okay, okay. I'll try on the stupid dress."

Rarity clapped her hooves in delight. "Oh, thank you, Rainbow. This means a lot."

"Yeah, yeah." Rainbow hopped from her cloud, crunching the grass below as she landed. "It just better be quick, all right?"

"Of course, darling. It will be the least amount of time you’ll ever spend in a dress. I promise."

The Boutique was pretty quiet when they walked in. Rainbow was a little surprised to find the closed sign in place when they walked in. She turned to Rarity, who seemed to sense the question.

"I've been closed all day to work on the dress," she explained.

"Really?" That was a little unusual. If Rarity was going to close up for a whole day, usually if was for something bigger than just one dress. "It must be pretty important then."

"It is," Rarity said. "The client... well, I shouldn't really give out the details, but let's just say she has a bit of an... embarrassing issue. I've had to design the dress to function to the issue's benefit, while also keeping it hidden and that has taken all of my concentration today."

"O-kay..." Dash was a little curious after such a vague answer, but knew it would be rude to press for more personal information. Besides, her mind was much more focused on all the cider she was about to receive. While guzzling it down in the course of a single afternoon was her first instinct, she was actually considering saving as much as possible. Cider season was still months away and her own reserves were long since depleted.

As they made their way up the stairs to the workshop, Rarity turned her head back for a moment. "Do be quiet as we go by Sweetie's room. She's working on her homework."

"Sure thing," Rainbow said.

They cleared the top of the stairs, and Rainbow saw the door to Rarity's workshop slightly ajar at the end of the hall. As they approached, Rarity lit up her horn and nudged the door the rest of the way open. When Rainbow saw what was on the other side, she did a double take.

On a mannequin in the center of the room, was possibly the girliest dress Rainbow had ever laid eyes on. It was pink, top to bottom, with a massive bow on the back, puffed and ruffled sleeves, and more frills and lace than she had ever thought could possibly fit on one garment. It wasn't a dress, it was the epitome of lameness.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa," Rainbow said as Rarity strolled into the room. "That's the dress you want me to try on?"

Rarity sighed, undoubtedly having expected such a reaction. "Yes, it is."

"Heck no!" Rainbow yelled. "I'm not putting that thing on! I'll look like... like a... like a sissy!"

"Rainbow please keep your voice down. Sweetie is in the other room."

Rainbow Dash quieted down, but her rage did not. "Seriously Rarity, how could you think I'd ever wear something like that?"

Rarity sighed. "Well, I figured a gallon of cider would be all the convincing you needed."

Rainbow paused. Usually she'd do anything for cider, but this was really pushing her limits. She quickly weighed her options against each other: wear the girliest dress in the world for a few seconds, or spend the next few months ciderless. "I don't know..."

"Well there isn't much I can do to sweeten the deal right now, Rainbow," Rarity admitted. "But I will remind you that you did already agree."

Rainbow gritted her teeth, staring down the dress. "Yeah..."

"And it is a gallon of cider I'm offering you."

"...yeah..."

Rarity gestured hopefully to the dress. "So, will you?"

Rainbow sighed. Curse this Element of Loyalty stuff. "Okay. I guess."

Rarity clapped her hooves in delight. "Oh, thank you, Rainbow. I promise, this will be over before you know it."

Rolling her eyes, Rainbow reluctantly walked in. "Yeah, yeah. Just be sure to have that cider ready."
"Cross my heart, darling." With her magic, Rarity levitated the dress off of the mannequin. Dash clenched her jaw at the sight of that heap of prissiness floating her way, but she could only sigh.

Just think of the cider.

The buzzing sound of a zipper ripping open hit her ears and she watched as Rarity levitated the prepped dress behind her body. Rainbow arched an eyebrow; she didn't know much about dress but weren't they supposed to go on over your head? She glanced to Rarity, positing the question with her look.

"Like I said, it's custom made. You'll have to get in this way because of the d- erhem." Rarity coughed into her hoof. "Because of the additions. Anyway, just step back into it."

Rainbow furrowed her brow. Rarity was acting kinda weird about this whole thing, but whatever. Cider on the brain, Rainbow started backing up. She felt Rarity contort the dress to accommodate her hooves, before feeling something weird. On of her hind legs passed through a hole of some kind, causing a distinct crinkling noise. When that leg came down and the next went back the same thing happened.

Rainbow felt a tug on her tail and realized that Rarity was pulling it through a third hole. As the dress lifted up over her body, Rainbow's rear end hit a wall of crinkling plush that wrapped around her waist. Standing now felt weird. Whatever was in the back of her dress spread her legs apart awkwardly. If she had to walk, it may come off as a waddle.

Furrowing her brows more, she stepped into the sleeves and let girliness incarnate slip over her entire body. She heard the zipper slip closed and felt the fabric of the dress tighten over her wings. She winced, but didn't complain; it would be over soon enough.

As Rarity's aura finally dissipated, she took a step back. "Hmm..."

"Hmm?" Rainbow asked.

Rarity motioned with a twirling hoof. "Turn around please, I need to see the back.."

Rainbow rolled her eyes, wanting the dress to be off. Her body felt way too cramped. "Why doesn't this thing have any wing holes?" She asked, turning around.

"My client is a unicorn; wing holes would be pointless for her."

Rainbow only partially heard Rarity's excuse. As she finished her 180, her eyes caught sight of the full body mirror at the back of the room and she finally witnessed the full horrors of what Rarity had subjected her too.

She looked like a dork.

The puffy, frilled sleeves of the dress really stuck out, even amongst all the pink and magenta. The sash across her midsection was tied off in a huge bow at the back, which was partially visible, even with her head in the way. The ribbons and lace that dotted the hem of the dress, as well as the chest looked extra goofy too. In short, Rainbow looked like she was some filly's dress-up doll.

Embarrassment hit her, and she blushed, lowering her head. She took solace in the fact that only Rarity was seeing her like this, and not anypony else. She would never hear the end of it if it got out that she was wearing something like this. Nopony would take her seriously again.

"I look stupid," she grumbled.

"You look fine, Rainbow," Rarity assured as she poked around at the skirt in the back.

"Why does your client even want a dress like this? It's so dumb!"

"It's lolita fashion. Apparently it's what's 'in' at the moment in Canterlot. In fact, it's so popular I was thinking of making our next Gala dresses this style."

"Well you can count me out if you do." Rainbow shifted, trying to move her wings in vain. They were squeezed in place tight. She wiggled her butt too; if felt so weird, like a pillow was smothering it. "Am I almost done?"

"Almost." Rarity poked at Rainbow's rear, pushing in the crinkly pillow-like underwear of the dress. "Hmm, this will simply not do. It's more exposed than hidden. Perhaps the padding is too large?"

"Padding?" Rainbow's curiosity got the better of her. "Just what am I wearing exactly, Rarity?" She turned back around to face her friend, shuffling goofily.

"I suppose there's no harm in telling you now," Rarity bit the inside of her cheek. "My client has been struck with a bit of incontinence, and requested I make a dress that could accommodate her diapers."

"DIAP-" Rainbow caught herself, remembering Sweetie Belle might very well hear her shouting. "Diapers! You mean I'm wearing a diaper?"

Rarity winced slightly. "Yes..."

"Are you kidding me?" Rainbow grabbed at the collar of the dress, trying to yank it off. The comfort provided by the padding now tainted with the knowledge of its true nature. Before, wearing this thing had been humiliating, but now it was degrading. Rainbow wanted it off. Now.

"Rainbow please, you'll stretch the fabric." Rarity swatted her hooves away. Dash groaned, but relented. Tt wasn't like that was doing any good, anway. The dress was on tight.

"Just get this thing off me!" Rainbow insisted.

Rarity held up a hoof, silently demanding her to calm down. "Alright Rainbow, alright. I've seen all I need anyway."

Rainbow grunted as Rarity trotted around her to see the zipper. "You could have at least told me I was going to be wearing a diaper sewed to a dress."

"The diaper isn't sewed to the dress, that would be horribly inefficient. It's completely removable to allow for changes." Rarity tugged at the zipper. "Besides... I was worried you wouldn't put it on if you knew."

Rainbow huffed. A gallon of cider probably wouldn't have been enough to convince her even if she knew. That didn't make it right for Rarity to trick her. She felt a tug at the back of her neck some more and grew annoyed. "Just get it off me already!"

"I'm trying," Rarity gritted her teeth. After a bit more ineffectual yanking at the zipper, Rarity huffed. "It... It's stuck."

"WHAT?" That was not the news Dash wanted to hear.

Rarity put a hoof on her shoulder. "Calm down, Rainbow. I can get this off of you, just let me find my scissors and I can cut the zipper free.”

Rainbow grumbled to herself as Rarity broke away and began poking through her drawers. Tugging a little at the dress, Rainbow became certain that she wouldn’t get it off alone. That zipper had her locked in! Stupid thing.

“Oh, you know.” Rarity shut the drawer. “I left the scissors downstairs. Hang on, I’ll be right back.”

“Just hurry,” Rainbow muttered. She did not want to have to stay in this dress any longer than she had too. “And you better have that cider ready!” she called out as Rarity shut the door behind her.

Sighing, Rainbow paced the room. Or rather, she tried to pace. The diaper was thick enough to force her to waddle, eliciting adorably annoying crinkles from her backside with each step she took. Growing tired of it, Rainbow abandoned pacing altogether and just stood angrily. She would’ve sat, but she had a feeling the diaper would make that feel weird to, if not slightly comfortable given all its padding.

Knock knock knock.

Rainbow looked up at the door to Rarity’s workshop. She was back already? But then why would she--

“Rarity?” Sweetie Belle’s squeaky voice filled the room. “I finished my homework. Can Apple Bloom and Scootaloo come over now?”

Rainbow’s eyes widened and panic suddenly gripped her. What should she do? If she didn’t answer, Sweetie Belle might walk in to try and find Rarity and see her! But if she did, Sweetie might just come in anyway to say hi! Both results would be disastrous.

Knock knock knock.

“Hey Rarity, did you hear me?”

Rainbow bit her lip. Not good, it sounded like Sweetie Belle might walk inside soon. Her eyes darted around, choosing her third option: hide.

Unfortunately, Rarity’s workshop wasn’t built for hiding. There was the table under her sewing machine, but too small and too open for Rainbow. There was the closet by the window, but it was overflowing with dresses from the look of it; there was no way she would fi--

The window!

Rainbow laser-focused on it. If she opened it and dangled out, Sweetie wouldn’t see her. And since they were facing back it wasn’t likely any towns ponies walking by the Boutique would see her.

But should she take the risk?

Knock knock.

“Rarity?”

Rainbow chomped on her lip. Sweetie was about to open the door, for sure. She threw open the window and grabbed onto the edge. Hesitation still had a hold on her though, and she paused.

click.

The doorknob had turned!

Throwing her hesitation out the window, Rainbow soon followed it. She grabbed the windowsill with all her might as she dropped, and managed to hang on just as the door opened.

“Rari-- oh, nevermind.” The soft sound of tiny hooves walking off was all Rainbow needed to know Sweetie was gone in search of her sister elsewhere.

She breathed a sigh of relief; her plan had worked. Grunting, she started to hoist herself up and back inside.

And then her hoof slipped.

Rainbow didn’t even realize it at first, but when wind started rushing past her hair she knew she was falling. Not so much as a yelp managed to escape her lips before she landed on the grass below.

Luckily, she landed on her butt. Her diaper ended up taking the brunt of the fall, crinkling noisily as it flattened against the ground.

Blinking in surprise, Rainbow stood and looked up. Two stories was all it would take for her to get back and she just about breathed a sigh of relief.

Her wings instinctively opened, but jutted to a stop against the dress. “What the…?” Rainbow bit her lip and looked around, then up again.

The open window above her seemed almost mockingly cruel with how close it was.

Well, guess I have to go around. Rainbow bit her lip, realizing there wasn’t another option. She slunk around the side of the Boutique, aiming for the front door. It’s not so bad. I’m sure there aren’t a lot of ponies out toda--

She rounded the corner, and froze in horror at how wrong she was. The business district was flooded with a rainbow of ponies, each bustling about from shop to shop.

Rainbow flailed, blushing in humiliation, praying that nopony had seen her, and hyperventilating all at once.

Without thinking, she propelled herself sideways, aiming for cover. As she looked around, she saw the building off to the left looked like a good hiding spot and bolted for it. Her awkward waddle-run made a good deal of noise thanks to the diaper, but she managed to hide behind the building before attracting any attention.

Breathing heavily, Rainbow waited to make sure nopony had seen her scamper and decided to check and see what it was.

Then, she looked over at the Boutique and nearly smacked herself. She should’ve run behind Rarity’s place!

“Idiot!” she hissed at herself. Her stupidity brought her further away from help and closer to humiliation.

Until less ponies were around, she was stuck outside. In a girly as hell dress that exposed that large diaper between her legs.

Rainbow gulped.

...That cider is definitely not worth it now.

A Walk Around Town

Rainbow cowered in her hiding spot, trying in vain to cover up her poofy dress and even poofier diaper. Every now and again she would peek her head over the corner only to be greeted with the still bustling marketplace.

Sighing, Rainbow banged her head against the wall. “You’ve got to be kidding me.”

Her gaze darted over to Carousel Boutique right next door and she bit her lip. She could make a break for it, but she’d have to get to the front door somehow. In front of all those ponies…

But at least Rarity would be looking for her, if no other reason than to get the dress back. Surely if she came out with the scissors, then there would be no problem. They could take the dress off her right away and Rainbow would be in the clear. She just had to make sure Rarity could see her if she came looking.

Except how was she supposed to do that when she couldn’t let anypony else see her?

Rainbow groaned, folding her hooves across the chest of her dress. Shifting, she felt her bottom sink deeper into the diaper and winced. It shouldn’t feel comfortable, but it was anyway.

She peeked back around the corner over at Carousel Boutique. The front door was still closed. Rainbow gritted her teeth.

How long was she going to take? As much as Rainbow wanted to be patient, that was kind of hard when she was stuck outside in a diaper!

It must be because Rarity was searching the Boutique first. Why else would Rainbow have to wait for five whole minutes outside like this?

Unless she was still looking for the scissors…

Rainbow groaned again. Who knew how long she’d take if that was the case?

Absently, she tugged at the collar of the dress, anxious to get out of it. She would’ve already gotten out of the diaper since it was supposed to be removable, but there was a flap of fabric in the way, buttoned down to hold it in place. Since hooves were not designed to unbutton things it was not coming off anytime soon.

Which was very bad, because the longer Rainbow sat outside with nothing to do, the more bored she got. And the more bored she got, the more she realized that she hadn’t used the bathroom yet today. Like, at all. Sure, it wasn’t a big problem now, but if Rainbow had to wait around for a long time with no way to relieve herself… well, she didn’t want to think about what might happen.

But she didn’t have to avoid thinking about that for long, because a sudden click caught her attention.

Ears standing at attention, Rainbow turned to notice the knob for the backdoor to the building she was hiding behind was turning.

Time seemed to slow down. Rainbow panicked, breath catching in the back of her throat. She stumbled up and bolted, hoping to make it to the other side of the door so she could stay hidden when it opened.

It was a close call, but she managed to duck passed the doorway right as it started to swing open.

And end up in the interstice between buildings once more.

Pupils shrinking, Rainbow looked out to the side and saw the crowd still hustling and bustling about. She speed waddled behind the next building over, crouching under the back window.

Out of curiosity she glanced back and saw the pony who had forced her to scamper further from the Boutique. One of the flower ponies--Lilly maybe? Dash didn’t know them too well--was emptying a watering can onto the grass behind her shop. Thankfully, her back was turned, and she never checked behind her before she went back inside.

Dash breathed a sigh of relief and cursed herself at the same time. Now a whole house was between her and Rarity! Why hadn’t she run the other way? At least then she would be back behind the Boutique.

And be potentially spotted by potentially-Lily.

In the end, she was still (probably) unseen, which meant her reputation was intact. But it was now that much harder to sneak back to salvation.

Rainbow peered over the corner, and winced. Had that crowd gotten bigger somehow?

It was midday. Of course the market would be packed. But she couldn’t wait for hours for it to thin out, and she didn’t want to take any unnecessary risks to sneak back.

Crawling to the other side of the window, Rainbow Dash sat upright and leaned her head against the wall. She was about to sigh again, but froze as her eyes caught something.

This house's gutter was hanging really low.

And only a jump away from that was the roof.

Rainbow’s heart thumped loudly with excitement and she got up. This might just be the opportunity she needed! If she could get to the roof, nopony on the ground would be looking directly at her. That crowd was too packed and busy to bother!

This meant she could hop across the roof back to the flower shop, and maybe from there get Rarity’s attention!

Propelled by the possibility of freedom, Dash leapt up. Her hooves swiped the air, coming up empty as she fell back down to Earth. Her diaper hit the ground, cushioning the blow and Rainbow blushed. She didn’t want to admit it, but she was kind of grateful to it. But only because it protected her.

Rainbow had to jump a few more times before she managed a good hold on the gutter, climbing up she grabbed a hoofful of roof shingles and lifted herself up again. With a grunt, she rolled over onto the roof, and pumped a hoof in the air in victory. She’d done it.

Now to get over to Rarity.

Rainbow stood up, crouching a little just in case wayward eyes wandered her way. She was just able to catch a glimpse of the Boutique, and what she saw was promising.

The front door had opened, standing in its place was Rarity. She looked around, confused as she seemed to be searching for somepony. In her magical grasp: scissors.

Thank Celestia.

Rainbow didn’t call out to her yet, but started creeping along the roof. The jump to the next building was a long one, but she could make it. Especially if she got a running start. Then all she had to do was wave down Rarity and this dress would be off her for good.

Before she could even make it across the roof, however, a shadow swooped across her path. Not a bird or a cloud shadow either, it was definitely a pegasus shadow.

Rainbow froze. Slowly, she craned her neck up to the sky and winced.

Weather ponies were directly over head, fiddling with some clouds as they arranged a slight overcast. Rainbow gulped. They were too focused on their work right now to have noticed her, but one glance down and her rep was a goner.

Looking over, she saw some more weather ponies flying just passed the Carousel Boutique. Dash was already in their line of sight, though she doubted they recognized her yet.

Still, she wasn’t going to wait around for that to happen.

Turning, Rainbow bolted. Crinkles chased after her as her movements made the diaper squish in on itself. Rainbow still had to waddle slightly, but she was going too fast to notice and was too panicked to care.

The roof she was running on was also running out of room. Looking up, Rainbow saw the top of the next building over, just a good leap away. Shooting a glance back, Rainbow saw the weather ponies still coming. Whether they were giving chase to the oddly dressed pony on the roof, or were coming to assist with the cloud placing, she couldn’t tell.

And she didn’t take the time to find out.

With a single bound, Rainbow cleared the gap between buildings and landed on all fours on the next. She didn’t stop.

Mane whipping back, Rainbow carried the momentum and kept running. She didn’t dare look back, for fear it would slow her down.

Her heart raced as she leapt over to the next building, and the next. All she could think about was how she couldn’t let anypony see her like this.

A fourth jump. And a fifth. Surely she’d put some distance between her and the weather ponies, right?

Rainbow made a sixth jump before she finally started to slow down. One last leap across rooftops and she finally skidded to a stop.

Breathing heavily, Rainbow wiped the sweat from her brow. She felt the skirt of her dress bunch up behind her, and quickly smoothed it out to do whatever it could to hide her diaper.

Her dress… her diaper…

Rainbow groaned. She was not going to start thinking of these things as ‘hers’. No matter what, she had to avoid feeling… complacent with these things on.

Turning, Rainbow looked back to see the weather ponies had long since stopped. She breathed a sigh of relief, only to realize that once again she had distanced herself from the Boutique, and by a pretty wide margin, too.

“DANGIT!” Rainbow screamed. Her hoof whipped up to clamp down on her mouth. Looking out, she saw the ponies below flinching and start to look around for the source of the outburst.

Thinking quickly, Rainbow hopped off the roof and onto the ground behind the building she was atop. Forcing herself not to hyperventilate, Rainbow took solace in the fact that she was still, likely, unseen.

Man, I’m kind of a ninja today. She thought. A ninja in a pretty pink dress and diaper…

She shook her head, still panting. This was getting out of control, she was practically halfway across town at this point! Ninja or no, how was she supposed to get back to Rarity now?

Hitting the wall with the back of her head, Rainbow sighed. She was going to need help at this rate. At the very least, she couldn’t keep putting distance between herself and the Boutique. But who could she possibly trust to help her at this point?

“La lala lala~”

Rainbow’s eyes widened as a familiar cheery voice hit her ears. Looking over the side of the building, she saw an even more familiar pink pony walking along and singing to herself. She bore bulging saddlebags, and wheeled a baby carriage that looked big even for the Cake twins it probably held.

But Dash didn’t focus on that. Instead, she focused on the fact that the cavalry had arrived.

“Psst! Pinkie!” She whispered as loudly as she dared.

Pink ears flicked and Pinkie Pie turned to see her. “Hi Rainbow--”

“Shh!” Rainbow demanded. She looked around briefly before motioning. “Get over here.”

Pinkie wheeled her carriage into the gap between buildings and smiled, even as Rainbow retreated slightly behind the wall. “Hi Rainbow,” she whispered. “Why do I have to 'shhh'?”

“Because…” Rainbow gritted her teeth. “Pinkie promise me you won’t laugh.”

Pinkie blinked, surprised that such a sacred ritual was being invoked. “Okie dokie lokie. Cross my heart--”

“And that you won’t tell anypony.”

“--hope to fly--”

“And that you’ll help me out.”

“Stick a cupcake in my eye.” Pinkie dug a hoof into her cornea. “Okay, so what’s up?”

“I…” Rainbow sighed. She finally stepped out into the open, revealing the dress that was stuck on her body.

Pinkie’s face contorted into a grin and she brought a hoof up to clamp her mouth shut.

“You promised you wouldn’t laugh!” Rainbow said, face flushing. She hadn’t even mentioned the diaper yet, and probably wouldn’t at this point.

“I’m not laughing,” Pinkie replied, very much on the verge of laughing. She took a deep breath to calm herself. “What happened to you, Dashie? I thought you would never ever ever wear a dress like that in a million billion gajillion years.”

“Yeah, well…” Rainbow blushed, humiliated that she had sold herself out for cider. “Look, it’s stuck on me, okay? The zippers caught or whatever and I’ve been running around town trying not to let anypony see me.”

“Oh, okay. How can I help?” Pinkie was much more serious now. That didn’t happen often, but Rainbow appreciated her friend treating this matter with the utmost sincerity.

“I just need a way to get around town without being seen. Can you help me with that?”

“Hmm…” Pinkie pursed her lips in thought and tapped her chin. Her eyes glanced down and suddenly widened at the sight of the over-sized, empty baby carriage before her. “Oh! I have an idea.”

Rainbow’s heart stopped. “NO!”

Pinkie actually flinched. “Uh, it’s just a foal carriage, Rainbow.”

She pinched her thighs, the diaper crinkling softly. Rainbow didn’t want to step one hoof in that carriage. Wearing a diaper was bad enough, but riding around in one of those would amplify the badness of it all. It would be like she was a foal or something!

“I’m not riding in that,” Rainbow insisted. “What if somepony sees me?”

Pinkie reached into her saddlebags and pulled out a blanket. “I can cover you with this! Plus, the top will hide your head.” She patted the carriage

Rainbow bit her lip. “W-Why do you even have a foal carriage that big?” she asked, desperately diverting the topic of conversation away from her getting inside it.

“Oh, cause I just finished helping Twilight!” Pinkie explained. “You see, she was practicing a spell that makes stuff bigger, and asked me to find some stuff for her to try it out on. Since the Cakes took the kids out of town for the weekend, I figured there was no harming in borrowing some of their stuff, especially since Twilight is trying out a shrinking spell tomorrow.” She gave the carriage a pat. “So, you want to get in, now?”

Rainbow blushed with embarrassment. “No! Come on, Pinkie, there has to be another way to keep me hidden!”

Pinkie cocked her head. “Well… what have you been doing so far?”

“...Running and hiding.”

“And how’s that worked out for you?”

Rainbow wanted to get mad, but there wasn’t a trace of sarcasm in Pinkie’s voice. Not to mention she was right.

Lowering her head, Rainbow accepted defeat for now. “Okay, fine.”

Pinkie smiled, delighted she was able to help. Pushing the carriage forward she nudged her head toward it. “Okie dokie lokie then, get in.”

Rainbow eyed the carriage, muscles locking up. She still really didn’t want to do this. Forcing a hoof up, she inched towards the carriage slightly, only to let her leg drop before even touching it.

Suddenly Pinkie appeared behind her. “Here, I’ll help.”

“What are-- hey!” Dash’s face could get more red as Pinkie lifted her up, keeping her in a cradling hold for a moment as she positioned her over the carriage. Rainbow squirmed, right as Pinkie set her down.

Even with the size increase, the carriage still was a bit of a tight squeeze. As Rainbow’s head met the soft pillow near the front, her forelegs squished against her sides and her hind legs had to tuck in to fit. She squirmed, but found moving to be difficult. Almost impossible even.

“There we… go…” Pinkie looked down and blinked.

Rainbow was confused for a moment, but then realized that the helm of her dress was flipped up, revealing the puffy padding between her legs. Her cheeks burned. “D-Don’t ask…” she mumbled.

“...Uh... alrighty. Here.” Pinkie whipped out the blanket and spread it over Dash’s body, tucking her in. The warm, fuzzy blanket brought with it a sleep-inducing feel. Dash had to admit, she was a little tired from all the running and panicking she’d been doing lately. Plus, helping Rarity had cut right into her mid-afternoon nap schedule, which was never a good thing for her to miss.

Backing up, Pinkie surveyed her work, while Dash looked around. The head of the foal carriage was pulled up, obscuring her view of the sky. However, flicking her eyes down was all it took to see Pinkie.

“I don’t feel very hidden,” Rainbow said. “Maybe we should try something else.”

“Like a disguise!” Pinkie clapped her hooves. Dash breathed a sigh of relief; that was a much better idea that riding around in a foal carriage.

Pinkie started digging around in her saddlebags, but strangely didn’t move to get Rainbow out. After a bit of struggling, Rainbow gave up and decided to wait for Pinkie to help.

“Here we go.” Pinkie pulled out a large, pink bonnet.

“Uh, excuse me?” Rainbow asked.

“Well, duh silly. Your mane is a dead giveaway. If somepony were to just glance in the carriage they could tell it was you! Don’t worry though, you can totally borrow Pumpkin’s bonnet. It’s too big for her right now anyway.

“I don’t-- Hey!” Rainbow was cut off as Pinkie leaned and and wrapped the bonnet around her head. She squirmed, muttering some protests as Pinkie shoved as much of her mane behind her head as possible.

Feeling her hair tug back was uncomfortable, but Rainbow’s protests went unnoticed. By the time Pinkie stepped back, the bonnet was wrapped around her head and tied into place at her chin. Rainbow’s ears folded down inside her new, filly-ish hat and she realized her peripheral vision was completely cut off now.

Not exactly what she wanted when Pinkie had offered a disguise; in fact, this was just pushing her closer and closer to looking like a foal. But still, she understood that this was probably the only disguise Pinkie had on her at the moment, save a fake mustache that wouldn’t help at all.

But that didn’t mean Dash would have to like it.

“Pinkie!” Rainbow complained.

“Hmm…” Pinkie observed Rainbow’s appearance. “That’s better alright.”

“Depends on who you ask,” Rainbow grumbled.

Pinkie tapped her chin. “The problem is you just don’t have the face of a foal. If somepony sees you they would know right away that you’re an adult.”

“So what do we do?” Rainbow asked. Please say you’ll take me out of the carriage. Please say you’ll take me out of the carriage. Please say--

“Oh! I know!” Pinkie reached back into her saddlebags. Dash’s hopes fell.

She struggled against the carriage once more, but her hooves were pinned to her sides by the squeeze. All her resistance did was shift the carriage forward, but Pinkie caught it with a hoof before it could roll away.

“Here we go!” Pinkie pressed her hoof to Dash’s face, shoving something in her mouth.

A huge rubber bulb parted her jaw and pushed at her tongue. When a plastic guard hit her lips, Rainbow knew what it was. “A pafifier?” She lisped as Pinkie pulled her hoof away. Rainbow spat it out. “A pacifier?” she hissed.

“Yeah,” Pinkie said. “I mean, it’s foalish right? As long as nopony gets a second look at you, they’ll never suspect a thing!”

“But it’s humiliating!” Rainbow whined.

“But nopony will know it’s you,” Pinkie countered. She nabbed the pacifier and shoved it back in Rainbow’s mouth. “Just keep it in and nopony will be the wiser, okay?” she booped Rainbow’s nose for good measure.

Rainbow sighed, defeated. She definitely didn’t want to be recognized in all this crap, so despite the embarrassment of using a pacifier in front of her friend she would put up with it.. Besides, Pinkie had already promised not to tell anypony. “O’tay…”

“Alrighty then! Let’s go!” Pinkie disappeared around the carriage and moments later the world zoomed around to face the busy street.

Dash whimpered as they approached the town, and bit on the pacifier's bulb. Soon they entered the street and Dash shut her eyes.

No name calling, no laughter, no confused grunts. As Rainbow opened her eyes again she saw that the ponies they passed weren’t so much as looking in her direction.

She suckled on the pacifier in relief. That was--

Wait…

Rainbow blinked as she realized her lips were bobbing up and down, suckling away at the pacifier they held. She must’ve been so worried that she hadn’t even realized she was doing it.

Groaning, she stopped. But then it just felt… weird. Doing nothing with the pacifier she had in her mouth was almost as bizarre a feeling as just having in her mouth to begin with. At least suckling it felt natural...

Dash shook her head and tried to focus on something else.

...Like her bladder.

The fear and embarrassment from earlier made her forget again, but now that things were calmer it was hard not to notice. The pressure was even worse now that she had waited a little longer. It was hard to deny that she needed to go to the bathroom.

Rainbow wiggled her legs, eliciting a crinkle from her diaper. She was trying to find a good ‘holding it’ pose, but being stuck was not helping. Rainbow groaned and just decided to do everything she could to ignore it. At least they were moving; soon Rarity would be able to--

They stopped.

Rainbow’s eyes widened. Immediately, she began to worry. Had something happened? Did she miss someone who just recognized her?

“Mmph--” She caught herself before she could ask. Just in case, she didn’t want to attract attention to herself. But still, she had to know.

Just then, Pinkie spoke. “Hey Bon Bon, how’re you?”

Rainbow became livid. Really? Pinkie had stopped to chat with somepony? Did she not realize how dangerous of a situation Rainbow was already in? She should be running to the Boutique at top speed, not making friendly conversation.

Her anger peaked about halfway through the chatter behind her before she started to calm down some. She did have to admit that Pinkie wasn’t exactly drawing more attention to her. In fact, it might be more concerning for everypony in town if Pinkie just ran straight to the Boutique with an oversized carriage rather than do what she normally did and talk to friends.

Still, Dash wanted out of this carriage as soon as possible. Could Pinkie just not understand that?

She suckled on her pacifier and pouted; this was not going the way she wanted it to.

“Okay, see you around.”

Dash breathed a sigh of relief. The carriage started moving again now that the conversation was over. Maybe now they coul--

“Oh hi, Clockwork!”

Dash groaned, head sinking into the pillow as the foal carriage came to a stop again. Boring small talk resumed behind her, but she didn’t have the energy to be super angry anymore. She was just annoyed, and sleepy.

Very sleepy, in fact.

The warm blanket wrapped around her body, coupled with the pillow she was resting on reminded Dash that she never got to finish her afternoon nap. Considering Pinkie would be talking for a little while longer it probably didn’t matter if she caught a few winks or not.

Letting her eyes slip from open to half-lidded, Rainbow felt exhaustion start to really pile on. She shifted, snuggling up in the carriage. She was even suckling on her pacifier again, but didn’t really notice.

As her eyes closed all the way, Dash decided that her current situation was a little comfortable. Just a little.

But she was still glad that it would be over soon.

A Humiliated Pony

Rainbow opened her eyes slowly. Her body was swaying side to side as the foal carriage around her moved across the ground. It took her a few seconds to get her bearings, but by the times she was yawning into her pacifier she remembered everything.

I guess we’re still not at the Boutique. She realized.

Which was fair. She could’ve been asleep anywhere from one to five minutes with how rested she felt. At Pinkie’s current rate they should almost be there, but not quite.

As her senses came back to her, the first thing Rainbow noticed was that her muscles felt a little sore, specifically her legs, but her wings were practically numb. Not too surprising, it was cramped in the carriage. But it was still a little early for her to really be feeling it. Maybe she’d slept longer than five minutes? Somewhere like ten, maybe?

The next thing she became aware of was the drool on her chin. It made her do a double-take, but she realized the cold, damp feeling on her face must be drool.

“Dumb pafifier…” she mumbled as her lips bobbed up and down. It was then she realized that she’d been suckling on it since she woke up; probably before she even woke up. Blushing, she tried to bring up a hoof to wipe it away, before remembering how pointless that was.

Looking up, Rainbow got her first bit of good news of the day. The way before them was totally clear. Pinkie must’ve gotten them to a place away from the crowd.

Probably a more roundabout way, Dash thought. No wonder it’s taking so long. She just took solace in the fact that nopony had seen her.

Shifting, Rainbow’s eyes widened as she learned of one more thing that had happened while she’d slept.

crinkle crinkle squish

She gulped, pressing her thighs together to feel cold, wet padding greet them.

No… no way…

She hadn’t actually… there was no way she had… But…

Rainbow sniffled, so taken off guard that she wanted to cry. Biting down her her pacifier, she squirmed, whining loudly.

She’d peed in her diaper.

She’d pissed herself.

Rainbow shuddered as the full realization of what had just happened grabbed hold of her. Disgust, shame, and humiliation hit her in equal amounts and her face contorted into a cringe.

“Eeew!”

Just then, the carriage stopped and Rainbow heard hoofsteps. A second later, Pinkie Pie appeared in front of her.

“Hey, Dashie! You’re awake!”

Rainbow kept her thighs pressed together, blushing through the shame. Now that she thought about it, there wasn’t that much urine in the diaper. Perhaps only a little had trickled out of her during her nap. Considering she still kind of needed to go, that was likely a possibility.

Biting back her near sob, she spoke, “h-hey Pinkie. Awe we awmost dewe yet?” Rainbow blinked and spat out her pacifier.

“Eh… about that.” Rainbow did not like the guilty tone in her voice. “You never really told me where to go, remember? I’ve just kinda wandered around for the last hour or so.”

Rainbow’s eyes widened. She… well, no, she hadn’t actually mentioned anything about Rarity or the Boutique to Pinkie, had she?

“O-Oh…” Rainbow kicked herself. How could she have forgotten? And did Pinkie say an hour? “Wait, why didn’t you wake me up then?”

“‘Cause you looked so peaceful, silly. I thought you would’ve been cranky if I got you up.”

Rainbow opened her mouth to retort, but realized that was probably true. But that still didn’t make it okay for Pinkie to just walk around town with her in this gettup. “N-Nopony saw me, right?”

“A few ponies wanted to see the sleeping foal I was looking after, but they only got like one glance apiece, and none of them knew it was you."

Rainbow blushed. She knew the point was for them to think she was a foal, but somehow being mistaken for one was about as humiliating as being recognized. At least Pinkie had stopped it there. “C-Can you just get me to Carousel Boutique now, please?”

Pinkie gave a goofy little salute. “Can do.”

She popped Rainbow’s pacifier back in her mouth with a wink. Dash wanted to complain, but knew she had to keep her disguise up. Besides, the way her pacifier instantly began bobbing up and down… it was practically instinctual.

Rainbow blushed and squirmed. Clearly she’d been wearing this stuff for too long.

Though she still ended her struggle with being stuck in the carriage, her shifting around managed to press her pelvis against her squishy diaper some more. Rainbow bit down on her pacifier and blushed some more. She still had a hard time believing she’d done that; at least she had the excuse of being asleep, but still.

And the fact that she still had to go only made it worse.

What should I do? Rainbow thought. After all, she’d already ruined her diaper, and the pressure in her bladder was still immense. If she didn’t go soon, it felt like it might burst. But at the same time, willingly peeing herself? Soaking her diaper while awake?

No. No way! I can hold it. Her thoughts didn’t sound too sure though…

As the carriage sped up around her, Rainbow found herself tantalized yet again by the thought of sleep. The rhythmic swaying of her ‘bed’ coupled with the gentle suckling of her pacifier and the warm comfort of her blanket was a triple whammy practically designed to put her out. Rainbow felt her eyes slowly drift shut…

No! She shook her head. She couldn’t fall asleep again. Aside from the worry that she might have another accident, if Pinkie got distracted or something they may spend another hour like this! As far as Rainbow was concerned that was not happening again.

So, to fight sleepiness away, Rainbow focused on anything she could. The tight squeeze the dress put on her wings, the cold, damp spot on her diaper, the drool on her chin. None of these things were pleasant for her to think about, but there wasn’t much else she could do.

“Hiya Pinkie!”

The carriage skidded to a stop. Rainbow groaned.

“Oh, hi Derpy. How’re you?”

Rainbow wanted to smack herself. How could this be happening again?

“I’m fine, thanks. Say, what’s with the foal carriage?”

Pinkie paused, likely to recall her excuse. “Oh, I’m just watching a filly for a friend.”

“Ooh! Can I see her?”

“Uh… well…”

Rainbow’s eyes snapped shut and her head fell back on the pillow as a gray figure cut into view. Apparently Derpy didn’t feel like waiting for an answer.

“Aww, how adorable!” Derpy squeaked. Rainbow fought down a blush and kept her eyes shut. She suckled on her pacifier, hoping to give off a foalish impression and prayed that would be enough to get Derpy to leave.

Please don’t recognize me. Please don’t recognize me. Please don’t recognize me.

“You know, she looks kinda like Rainbow Dash, doesn’t she?” Derpy mentioned.

Oh come on! The one pony in town with bad eyesight could tell it was her? Not cool. Rainbow squirmed a little, hoping this didn't mean all of the other ponies that had seen her like this had also recognized her.

Suddenly, the carriage whipped around as a slightly frantic Pinkie Pie spat out, “sorry Derpy, we gotta run. Nice talking to you.”

As the wheels of the foal carriage roared into action, Rainbow heard a faint, now distant call. “Oh… okay, bye!”

Now free from view, Rainbow blushed. Hard. That call was too close for comfort.

Luckily, Pinkie seemed to think so too, she she sped along and didn’t talk to anymore ponies for the rest of the trip. Rainbow didn't complain, but kept her eyes shut just in case. She also suckled on her pacifier, but not for comfort! It was only to keep up the illusion of being a foal.

Only a few minutes passed from their exchange with Derpy and arriving at the Boutique. Rainbow’s eyes widened when she saw the door to Rarity’s shop, almost tearing up. Then again, she had been tearing up a lot today from humiliation.

“Phew. Sorry about that Dashie. I didn’t think Derpy would--”

“It o’tay,” Rainbow mumbled. “Jus’ find Wawity.”

“Can do.” Pinkie shifted the carriage and opened the door, walking in backwards and taking the carriage with her.

Rainbow breathed a sigh of relief as the sky was replaced with the ceiling of the Boutique. This nightmare was finally, almost over.

Pinkie appeared before her, smiling. “Okay, I’ll be right back. You just sit tight.”

Rainbow’s eyes widened. She’d didn’t want to be in the carriage anymore! Her embarrassment would be even worse if Rarity saw everything she was currently wearing!

“Wait! I wanna--” Too late. Pinkie had already blasted off in a pink blur.

Rainbow bit her pacifier and groaned in frustration. She was not going to deal with this any longer! Squirming, struggling, and thrusting her body around, she managed to inch the carriage along. It was slow work, but Rainbow felt that if she could tip it over, she’d be free.

Her violent thrashing eventually made a real impact on the carriage by propelling it backward. Rainbow grinned as she saw the front door shrink away from view, but then her eyes widened as she realized she wasn’t stopping.

“MMPH!” She cried out as the carriage flew back. Dresses from the front of the shop all flew by before the room suddenly shifted into Rarity’s living room.

Suddenly, the carriage rammed into something and flipped over. Rainbow became airborne, the top of the carriage latching onto her bonnet and ripping it off. Launched free from her foalish prison, she just enough time to process the coffee table she had run into and the three colorful figures sitting right next to it.

As she landed, her rainbow mane fell over her face, exploring its newfound freedom by completely blowing her cover. She struggled to get up, but her legs were so sore that the didn’t want to cooperate. Pressing against the floor with them only caused them to shake like wimpy twigs.

“R-Rainbow Dash?”

Rainbow’s pupils shrunk. Slowly, she turned her head and saw the Cutie Mark Crusaders sitting across the room. With the way the helm of her dress was turned up, it was clear they had a full view of her diaper, and from their bug-eyes it was obvious they saw it. Along with the rest of her dress. And pacifier.

Rainbow suckled miserably.

“W-What…” Scootaloo seemed the most shocked.

Rainbow quickly racked her brain, think of an excuse, or something to do, or--

Hiss…

Her eyes widened, the sudden sound of urine releasing into the fluffy confines of her diaper hitting her like a jolt of lightning. In the shock of being launched from the carriage and the humiliation of these fillies seeing her, she forgot to keeping holding in her bladder.

This time, it wasn’t a trickle. It was a full on stream.

Her padding bulged as it filled with urine, the absorbent diaper greedily drinking it up. As the feeling of warm piss covered her crotch, Rainbow whimpered pitifully.

Behind her, the Cutie Mark Crusader’s eyes widened so much they were in danger of popping out of their skulls. Scootaloo even fainted.

If it weren’t for her pacifier, Dash’s lip would be quivering. Her eyes watered up and her chest tightened. The pure shame of the situation was weighing down on her, but she couldn’t… she couldn’t cry on top of that.

“There you are!” Suddenly, Pinkie whirling into the living room and grabbed her hoof. She tugged Dash upright and began leading her out of the room.

“P-Pinkie…” Rainbow sniffled, biting down on her pacifier. The way her diaper squished and crinkled as they moved solidified this moment as the worst in her life. Before they even made it out of the living room, the dam broke and Rainbow started crying.

“Oh, Dashie.” Pinkie whispered as she came to a complete stop. Rainbow didn’t care how pathetic she looked, she couldn’t keep the emotions at bay. She just sobbed uncontrollably.

Pinkie was quick to react, picking Rainbow up again like she was cradling her. “There there, Dashie.” Pinkie patted her head while Rainbow just suckled and cried some more.

“I… I…” Rainbow couldn’t even form words. Pinkie nudged her head against her shoulder and let her cry some more.

“Shh… It’s okay Dashie. Come on, Rarity told me she can get this stuff off you.”

Rainbow whimpered as they ascended the stairs. She tried her best to stop crying, but couldn’t. Even suckling on her pacifier, as soothing as that was, did nothing. She just kept thinking back to the CMC’s faces, and how close she had been to avoiding humiliation like that. Now everypony might as well know. Those three were notorious for their big mouths and she doubted they would respect her enough to keep quiet after what they just saw. Even Scootaloo would likely be telling everypony all about this.

Pinkie brought her up the rest of the stairs, Rainbow still a sniveling mess of sobs. They made their way to Rarity's workshop, with each waddle Rainbow feeling the warm, squishing padding press against her. It only made her snivel more as they finally made it to a wide-eyed Rarity.

“Oh my, what happened?” Rarity asked.

Through blurry eyes, Rainbow looked up and saw Rarity holding a pair of scissors and her magic. And a jug of cider. She sniffled. At least one good thing will come out of today.

“The Crusaders saw her,” Pinkie explained.

“Oh my.” Rarity bit her lip. “I am truly sorry for that, Rainbow. I knew I should’ve told Sweetie she couldn’t bring her friends over today.”

Rainbow just whimpered and sniffled.

“I just don’t understand how this happened,” Rarity admitted. “Where did you go? Why do you have a pacifier?” She sniffed the air, nostrils wrinkling at the stench of urine. “Why does it smell like--”

“I… I…” Rainbow couldn’t even bring herself to explain. She just devolved back into a stuttering, sobbing mess.

“Oh my.”

“Quick, is that cider?” Pinkie asked, pointing to the jug.

Rarity turned her head. “Um, yes.”

Pinkie waved it over. “Let her have some, that should calm her down a little.”

Rarity handed the jug over, but looked skeptical. “I don’t know if she’s going to be able to drink it… like, this.”

Rainbow whimpered, barely able to stop shaking.

“Hmm… Oh!” Pinkie reached into her saddlebags again, digging around for something.

Rarity set down her scissors and stepped to the door. “I’ll go see if I can’t talk to Sweetie Belle and her friends. Perhaps I’ll have a shot at convincing them what they saw wasn’t… well… I’ll think of something.”

Rainbow nodded through her tears.

“I’ll get you out of your dress when I get back, all right?”

Rainbow nodded again, sniffling.

Rarity face compressed into a guilty expression. She clearly felt awful about putting Rainbow through all of this. “How about next cider season I buy you all the drinks you want? Does that sound good?”

Rainbow nodded one last time as Rarity disappeared behind the door. She couldn’t stop sniveling like a foal; what was wrong with her?

“Here we go!” Pinkie drew Rainbow’s attention as she held up an enlarged foal bottle, filled with the golden-brown liquid of apple cider. She pulled the pacifier from Rainbow’s mouth, causing her to whimper.

She actually whimpered.

Blushing, Rainbow tried to say something, but was interrupted by the amber nipple of the bottle being shoved into her mouth. Pinkie stroked her mane and brought her cheek into the fluff of her pink chest. “There there, Dashie. Just enjoy your cider, okay?”

Rainbow sniffled again and suckled, needing all the comfort she was provided. She was rewarded when a splash of sweet, bubbly cider hit her tongue. She moaned with delight, still sniffling.

Her whole body immediately relaxed, even as tears still ran down her face. She suckled again, getting even more cider for her effort.

Her crying slowed down considerably after that, and Rainbow began to feel a bit better. Even the warm, damp spot she had left in her diaper didn’t feel so unpleasant. As Pinkie held her, she continued to stroke Rainbow’s mane in an attempt to calm her down.

Okay… maybe this isn’t terrible. Rainbow admitted to herself halfway through the bottle.

“Feel better?” Pinkie asked, now that the shaking and sniveling had faded.

Rainbow reluctantly broke away from the bottle to answer. She had sufficiently calmed down enough to speak again, the realization that her life wasn’t over slowly dawning on her. “Y-Yeah.”

“Good.” Pinkie gave her a hug. “I’m sorry we didn’t get here sooner.”

“I-It’s fine,” Rainbow muttered. Her lips instinctively wrapped around the bottle again and she delved back into the cider. Pinkie giggled. “What?”

Pinkie smiled. “Nothing, I was just thinking that you made for a pretty cute foal, y’know?”

Rainbow blushed. Maybe she did… there was nothing wrong with that… right?

She suckled on her bottle some more, nestling her head against Pinkie’s chest again. Right… nothing’s wrong. Rarity’s talking to the CMC, I’ll be out of this dress soon, and Pinkie’s giving me all the cider I want. Nothing’s wrong at all. She shifted, squishing her wet diaper against her crotch and smiling.

Absolutely nothing.
