Chapters Tales of the Green Hill Club: The Globe Family
Canterlot, Spring Street A few months before the arrival of Flutter Heart and her family
Sandymane sighed to herself as she sipped her blackcurrant drink. She, her younger brother Pimpernel, and their parents Smart Globe and Hazelhair, had recently moved from Trottingham to Canterlot, and she was not exactly in the best of moods to be excited about her new home. Then again, she was rarely in a good mood, largely due to living under the impression that nobody else wanted anything to do with her or her interest in "boring" books or "gross" bugs and insects. Her heart was broken when, at the age of twelve, a boy she fancied spurned her over the second issue. It didn't help that later, when she was sixteen, an older boy took her on a date, only to later demonstrate his stupidity by drunkenly crashing his father's car.
These mishaps made her rather jaded, and she didn't even expect her family's change of residence to actually improve much about her life. She appreciated how Pimpernel stood by her in difficult times, but his attempts to help her lighten up were often clumsy or misguided, and he could just as easily annoy her as comfort her. Both of their parents were out purchasing groceries and gardening supplies for Hazelhair's planned backyard garden, leaving Sandymane in charge.
"Hey, sis!" Speak of the devil, Pimpernel had snuck up on her from behind the couch she was sitting on and tackled her. Unfortunately, the force of the tackle spilled the contents of her glass onto her white shirt, spilling the drink all over it.
"Pimpernel!" She yelled angrily. "This was my favorite shirt!"
"You were drinking? Oh gosh, I didn't see--"
"Because you don't pay attention to anything, you little blockhead!" snarled Sandymane. "I bet it never crosses your mind that I might not be in the mood to put up with you!"
"Sis, I'm sorry--"
"Save it! You're too immature to understand my feelings. Just get lost."
"I just wanted to help..." He dejectedly walked upstairs. A few moments later, she heard the sound of water running, indicating Pimpernel was taking a shower. She was still feeling hostile towards him, and in that frame of mind, a certain malicious thought occurred to her. Sneaking towards the bathroom, she saw that Pimpernel had forgotten to shut or lock the door.
Forgetful as always, she thought. Well, after the little shrimp got my shirt stained, let's see how he likes it when I show no respect for HIS clothes!
Seeing them sprawled out on the bathroom floor, she crouched down and slowly reached for his shirt. Seeing that he was too busy singing to himself to notice, she was quicker in snatching his pants and underwear. She then grabbed the towels from the rack as well. Crumpling the clothes and towels into a ball, she ran into her room at the end of the hall and stashed them underneath her mattress.
Now to await the fruits of my labor, she thought, an evil smirk on her face.
Once he was finished washing, Pimpernel habitually stuck an arm out of the shower to reach for the towel rack - only to find, of course, that there were no towels to grab.
"What the--? But I was sure that--"
Poking his head out to take a look, he was struck speechless to see that his clothes had also vanished. He had nothing to cover his nudity! With no other option, he stepped out of the shower and made his way to the bathroom door, sticking his head out into the hallway. A blush blazed on his face the whole way.
"Sis! Something's happened to my clothes and the towels! They're all gone!"
Sandymane's voice gave a sly, smug reply. "Gee, little brother, I wouldn't know anything about that. Considering that you don't pay attention to things, maybe there never were towels and Mom or Dad decided to tidy the bathroom floor. You do know we're meant to put our clothes in the laundry basket, right?"
"Wait a minute - you took them, didn't you?!"
"Me?" Her voice switched to a tone of fake surprise. "I was downstairs trying to wash this stain off my shirt."
"This isn't funny! What if Mom and Dad come home and see me naked?!"
"Well, you clearly have no respect for clothes - think of it as poetic justice."
"Hey, the thing with your shirt was an accident!" Pimpernel was starting to get angry now.
"Being clumsy and insensitive is no excuse. Perhaps this'll help you learn that."
Pimpernel shut the door fuming for a moment before opening the door again, trying to act casually. If this was the sort of prank his sister was going to play on him, he would have to up the ante in return! He walked casually down the hall towards his sister's room, just as he had done countless times in his life. Only today, he was doing it completely naked from head to toe. He resisted inner urges to cover himself or hide in his own room, and upon reaching Sandymane's door, pushed it open and stepped through.
"All right, Sandy, where are they?"
Sandymane's face went extremely red at seeing her little brother strut into her room buck naked.
"Wh-What are you doing?!" She stammered as she looked away from him.
"Y'know what? Keep 'em," Pimpernel smirked at the sight of his sister's embarrassment. "This is much better."
"I-I-I beg your pardon?"
"I feel... free, you know?" Pimpernel's smirk grew into a grin as his sister's discomfort built. "It's like my skin can breathe and I can really appreciate the feeling of everything. And don't clothes just mean more laundry to get done? Maybe I'll just be naked at home from now on."
"Oh no, you cannot be serious..."
"What if I am? This could give me a whole new lease on life." There was a degree of genuine honesty in the boy's words now. "Man, this feels really nice, sis. The fresh air flowing over my chest, my stomach, my--"
"GET OUT OF MY ROOM, YOU LITTLE WEIRDO!" Sandymane shrieked, her face so red it looked like it might explode.
Pimpernel just smiled and shrugged. "Fine, have it your way. But just remember - you gave me this idea." As he closed the door, Sandymane lied down, only to immediately sit up after feeling how sticky her shirt was against the blankets.
Soon
Smart Globe and Hazelhair were unpacking the groceries out of their car. They had just been shopping, and had no inkling that anything was out of the ordinary back at their home. As he usually did, Smart Globe called upstairs to Pimpernel, asking him to come down and help them store everything away. They always preferred to have his assistance rather than that of Sandymane, who usually became grumpy at being interrupted from her own interests. The sound of footsteps coming down the stairs grew louder until Pimpernel stopped at the bottom. Both of his parents blushed brightly at his unclothed state.
"Err, son?" said Hazelhair with a nervous chuckle. "Where are your clothes?"
"I've decided not to wear them at home anymore," the boy replied casually, trying not to grin or laugh at his parents' sheepish surprise.
"Why not?"
"Ask Sandymane the next time you see her. Now, what do you need help with first?
"Um, help Hazelhair put the food away in the fridge," Smart Globe replied.
As Pimpernel proceeded to help them, his parents did their best not to stare at his nudity too much, for fear of suddenly making him uncomfortable. Having raised him, and often washed him by hand, it was nothing they hadn't seen before. All the same, they had long assumed that he had turned his back on that stage most babies and toddlers have of going around with few or no clothes, and would never even want to be reminded of it. At the same time, they could not help but feel a bit of pride for their son's healthy form and his obvious confidence in it. After finishing with the groceries, Hazelhair picked up the bag with the gardening supplies and proceeded towards the currently empty backyard.
"In a few months, you'll be seeing more than just that willow tree," she had said before. Right from when she had first taken a look at their new house, one of her few gripes had been the "dull" simplicity of the garden. She had put together a plan to convert it into an elaborate miniature paradise with a dazzling variety of plants. Knowing and respecting his wife's artistic spirit, Smart Globe conceded and had set aside a portion of money to be used towards this creation.
"Tell me, son," Smart Globe said cautiously. "Is this... going to be just a phase?"
This made Pimpernel think for a moment. Did he really mean to go naked at home permanently?
"Well... it's what I feel like doing now, Dad. It feels great, I gotta tell you. But I promise I'll put something on when I leave the house, or when someone visits."
"You're a good boy," smiled Smart, ruffling his son's hair. "And between you and me, the girls are in for a treat when you get older."
"Daaad!" Pimpernel replied, amused and embarrassed all at once.
That night
Pimpernel tossed in his bed, his bare skin feeling weird against the sheets. Dinner was a little awkward with him being the only one at the table without clothes. Sandymane had refused to look at him throughout the meal, or even explain what was going on to their parents. It was also a warm night, so sleeping under the covers was a no-go. He sat up, clearly not going to sleep any time soon. For a while, he stared up at the lamp on the ceiling with an unamused face, as if it were mocking his dilemma. Knowing that everyone else was asleep, he climbed out of bed and crept towards the window. As he opened it, the fresh air felt so inviting, and another crazy idea occurred to him.
No, no, I couldn't... could I? He quickly looked back at his door. The light wasn't on and Sandymane could be heard snoring.
No one else in town seems to be awake either... well, as Dad likes to say, you only live once...
Moving quickly before he could change his mind, he climbed out the window. Landing on the grass, Pimpernel moved towards the gate leading out into the driveway. It was so surreal, being completely naked out there in the middle of the night. As he'd said before to Sandymane, his body seemed to sense everything around him at higher intensity. Still feeling cautious, he clung closely to the family's car as he proceeded down the driveway towards the street. He was so caught up in the excitement of the moment that he forgot something: he was new to this neighborhood, and if he went out into it alone he could easily get lost, especially at night. With no other option, he walked back towards his window... unaware that someone had seen him walk outside in the nude. It was a girl who was roughly his age and, like him, was also a nudist who had dared to step outside that night with nothing on. It was too dark to see his face, but she couldn't help but giggle at having seen a naked boy.
The next day Peace family house
"I'm telling ya, Emerald! I saw him last night!" Fuchsia Joy said to her older brother Emerald Peace.
"Okay. One: you shouldn't have been out there like that. Two: I find it hard to believe that you actually saw that. You've probably just got naked boys on the brain or something."
"Says the boy who's naked while talking to me," Fuchsia giggled as their mother made breakfast.
Back at the Globe house
Pimpernel yawned as he stretched his arms. He was the first one to wake up, despite being the last one to go to sleep.
That was a crazy idea last night, he thought. I should probably be more careful. He jumped out of bed to begin making breakfast for himself. But before he walked downstairs, he decided to sneak into Sandymane's room to get his clothes back. What he found there certainly wasn't what he expected. Standing in the middle of the room, striking a pose was Sandymane... wearing just her birthday suit. Gobsmacked, Pimpernel couldn't help but stare at her figure. Behind her facade of being just a grumpy bookworm was an attractive and well-developed girl, even if she was his sister. He gently cleared his throat, causing her eyes to snap open and instinctively cover herself.
"GET OUT!" She yelled.
Jumping a bit at her outburst, Pimpernel nearly complied. But then he chuckled and raised an eyebrow.
"Come on, sis, it's only fair, right? I mean, I've let you see all of me."
"You should respect my privacy!"
Pimpernel sighed as she slammed the door shut. "Sis, it's okay to admit you like being naked too."
"What in Faust's name makes you think that?" she replied. "Maybe, err... I don't know, maybe you caught me just as I was changing!"
"Sis," Pimpernel had a deadpan look on his face. "If you were changing, you would have had your clothes laid out. You don't even have your pajamas out."
"You... you noticed that?" Sandymane sounded less hostile now, as if she was starting to admit that he was right.
"Face it, sis," her brother smiled. "At least we both have something in common now." He chuckled at his little joke.
"Alright, fine, I admit it. What you said to me yesterday, about feeling free and liberated - it kept buzzing around inside my head..."
"Then you took off your clothes," Pimpernel finished. "Congratulations, sis. You're officially a nudist."
The door opened, and again Pimpernel had an unrestricted view of his sister's body.
"I'm just trying it out," she said. "But I have to agree with you - it does feel pretty nice."
"Then how about we discuss it over breakfast?"
She shrugged. "Sure... I guess we could."
Gently grabbing her hand, Pimpernel led his sister downstairs. Sandymane blushed at the feeling of walking through her new house in the nude.
Pimpernel decided to reassure her. "Hey, if it helps at all... you've got nothing to be ashamed of, sis. You're beautiful."
Sandymane blushed at the compliment.
"And whenever you're ready to join me full-time," he continued. "We can have much more fun."
As they entered the kitchen to reach the dining table, Sandymane had a small jump at the feeling of the cold tiles beneath her bare feet.
"Feels different, right?"
"Yeah... we should probably close the window blinds, right?"
After they had done so and prepared their breakfast, they sat down to it. Sandymane's chair also felt different under her bare backside, but she ignored that as she began to tell her brother about how she reached the point of getting naked.
Tales of the Green Hill Club: The Globe Family
The previous day
"GET OUT OF MY ROOM, YOU LITTLE WEIRDO!" Sandymane shouted to her younger brother as she slammed the door to her room.
When she heard him reply, however, he sounded more amused than offended. "Fine, have it your way. But just remember - you gave me this idea."
Sandymane fumed to herself as she laid down on her bed, only to immediately sit up at the sticky feeling from her shirt.
"Darnit," she said to herself, "why'd he have to go on and on about feeling good without clothes on?" With a little hesitation, she pulled her ruined shirt off and placed it in the hamper. She was about to grab a new shirt from the closet before pausing. The warm air did feel nice against the parts of her skin that were exposed...
Hmm... might be nice to go without a shirt for just a little while, she thought. But that's as far as I'll go! She picked up her favorite book, a somewhat worn guidebook to bugs.
As she lay back on the bed, the feeling of the soft duvet against her skin helped her to relax, and her mood began to improve. She absentmindedly began to play with the strap of her bra. As she continued to read, she unknowingly unhooked the undergarment, and began to lower her pants slightly. Eventually she was down to her underwear and socks. After that she became more absorbed in her book, and eventually, when her mother called to her, it came as a shock.
"Sandymane! Time for dinner!"
Shaking with panic at the possibility of being discovered in her barely-dressed state, Sandymane quickly redonned her pants and grabbed a new shirt. Hurrying down the stairs, she saw Pimpernel was already sitting at the table, still naked. She quickly turned away and desperately said to Hazelhair "Please say he should put something on, Mom."
"Why?" Pimpernel asked, beaming away. "I feel comfy, and I'm not hurting any of you."
Hazelhair shrugged. "If you don't want to look at him, Sandymane, you don't have to."
Smart Globe placed a small mug of freshly-made gravy next to the roast beef they were about to eat. Noticing this, Sandymane made one more effort. "But what about that hot gravy? It might splash and burn him--"
"I doubt it," said Smart Globe with a smile. "He's usually a quite tidy eater. Besides, he's still using a napkin like the rest of us - that ought to be enough."
Sandymane glared at her brother as they began to eat. Though secretly, she was actually jealous of how he showed off his nudity without much embarrassment. At last she asked, "How long are you gonna keep this up, Pimpernel? Don't you feel one bit of shame?"
"Why should I?" Pimpernel asked. "I'm safely in my own home, with my own family, and Dad says my body's doing just fine." Sandymane opened her mouth to speak, but found herself at a loss for words as he made some pretty good points.
"Honey, if we can handle it, so can you," Hazelhair said to her daughter. "He promises to get dressed when he has to leave the house or meet visitors, so stop worrying. Though I must say, I like to see that you care about your brother's well-being."
"Well..." Sandymane blushed.
"Aww, I love you too, sis!" said Pimpernel with a mischievous grin, though there was honesty in his voice as well. Sandymane allowed herself a small smile, but still didn't look at the naked boy.
"I'm not saying I'm comfortable with this," Sandymane finally said.
"We're still getting used to it ourselves, honey," Hazelhair assured her. "Just give it time. If this is what Pimpernel wants, being his family, we'll just have to accept it."
"I-I need to go..." Sandymane stood up and headed back to her room.
"What about your tea?" Smart Globe called after her.
"Not hungry anymore, thanks," the girl replied without looking back.
Back at the table, the rest of the family looked at each other, puzzled over how to take this, and Pimpernel shrugged.
Up in Sandymane's room, the clothes she was wearing were strewn all over the floor. The now nude Sandymane began panting heavily as she looked at her shaking hands.
"What's... happening to me?"
Standing there in nothing but her glasses - she needed those to see clearly, of course - she almost felt as though Pimpernel had cast some kind of spell on her, compelling her to get as naked as he was. The idea of it somehow became more and more compelling.
"That silly little prank can't have triggered this! I'm not turning into a nudist... am I?"
She tried to reach for her clothes, but for some reason, her body wouldn't obey her thoughts.
A voice in her head also seemed to be saying 'Hey, if you got dressed again, it would be just a dull regular evening for you. You have to admit, this is kinda fun...'
'That doesn't mean I should do it...' Sandymane argued internally.
'Unless you WANT to,' the voice seemed to reply. 'And don't bother trying to deny it - I know your mind. I AM your mind, after all.'
Sandymane sighed before getting under the covers, making sure her body was well-hidden.
'Feels nice, huh?' her mind persisted. If you had pajamas on, they'd be getting scrunched up and rubbing against you. This is much better, isn't it?'
'Shut up...' Sandymane told herself. 'I'm just... too tired to get dressed...'
'Are you ashamed of your body?' Okay, that was unexpected.
'No, I'm not. I mean... why should I be? I'm not overweight or underweight, I wash regularly and I've always avoided drugs. My body is fine.'
'Then there's no need to hide it.' Sandymane was sure that the voice was smirking at her now.
'Okay, fine. I admit being naked isn't that bad.'
'It might actually be fun, right? Pimpernel seems to be having a good time with it. Why don't you have a good look at yourself in the mirror, just to remind yourself how great you really look?'
'Tomorrow. Right now, I just want some rest...'
And with that, exhausted by dealing with Pimpernel's nudity and her own internal debate, Sandymane fell asleep there and then.
The next morning
Sandymane awoke to her alarm. She felt very well-rested, like it was the best sleep she'd had in many days. A quick body check confirmed she was still naked.
The memories of last evening came back to her. 'Could it be true? Is sleeping without nothing on really that much more comfy?'
Standing in front of her room mirror, she chuckled a little and struck a pose.
'Heh... I really do look pretty hot, don't I?'
Before she could continue admiring herself, the door opened. Pimpernel stepped in, and for a moment gazed upon his sister's body in silence. Then he gently cleared his throat, and her eyes snapped open in shock.
"GET OUT!" she yelled, trying to cover herself.
Back in the present
"And you know the rest," Sandymane concluded.
"Wow, you had an argument inside your head?" Pimpernel giggled.
"Knock it off," Sandymane grumbled. "We all have trouble choosing things, right?"
"Well, it feels pretty good, right?"
"Yeah, I admit it. It feels like I had loads of restrictions without knowing it, and suddenly they're gone."
"So does this mean you're...?"
"Yes, I will be naked at home from now on."
"Aww, I knew you'd come round, sis!" cried Pimpernel happily. Before Sandymane knew what he was doing, he leaped forward to hug her. It was only afterwards that he realized that his own naked flesh was now directly pressed to hers, and a mortified look crossed his face as he felt a certain reaction beginning.
"S-Sorry!" He leapt off of her and turned around to cover himself.
At first Sandymane was equally alarmed, having felt what was happening with Pimpernel against her hip. But knowing that it had been involuntary, and seeing how sorry and nervous he looked, she gave a gentle smile and hugged him from behind.
"Sis...?" Pimpernel was more used to her lashing out at him in anger.
"It's okay, it was an accident."
He could now feel her breasts pressed against his back, which made him tense up slightly. But she noticed this, and by gently stroking his arm, she calmed him down.
"...is there something wrong with you today? You seem... nicer."
Sandymane frowned - not out of anger, but out of guilt. Her brother's words made her think back on her attitude towards him over the years. How moody and reclusive she had become, how she refused to hang out with him and got annoyed with him for the silliest and most trivial reasons. And how, despite all that, he never lost his positivity and good humor, and continued to be loyal, understanding and friendly towards her and everyone else.
"No," she said finally. "I'm perfectly fine. In fact, I feel much better."
"You sure?"
Sandymane nodded. "I... want us to start over."
"What do you mean, 'start over'?"
"I haven't exactly been pleasant to you lately, and I want to move on from that."
"Hey, sis, it's okay. I mean, with no one else sharing your interests and having bad luck with guys, I always understood why you weren't happy--"
Pimpernel would have continued, but he stopped upon noticing Sandymane's eyes beginning to tear up. She was becoming overwhelmed by her little brother's kindness. Thankfully, he was interrupted by Hazelhair and Smart Globe coming downstairs.
"Ah, I see you kids woke up befo-- OH MY GOSH!" Entering the kitchen to find his teenaged daughter as naked as his son, Smart Globe panicked and averted his eyes for fear that staring would frighten her.
"Relax, Dad," Sandymane smiled. "Pimpernel and I were just discussing about our new living conditions."
"So you're joining him now?" Hazelhair asked as she stepped in. Turning to Smart Globe, she then said "Uncover your eyes, dear. Might as well get used to it."
Sandymane giggled as she pulled her brother close. "We're officially nudists now."
"So I see," smiled Hazelhair. "And if I may say so, Sandy, you're growing into a fine young woman."
"Mooom!" Sandymane blushed brightly.
"Come on, Mom, don't tease her," said Pimpernel. "She's only just started this."
"Thank you," Sandymane rubbed his head lightly as Smart Globe began making breakfast for himself and his wife.
"Ah, thank you, Smart," smiled Hazelhair. "I'll need a good breakfast, with all the work I'm planning to do on the garden today."
"Y'know," Pimpernel smirked. "It'd be less tiring if you worked out there naked."
"Wha--?! D-d-don't be ridiculous," stuttered Hazelhair with an intense blush. "I couldn't go outside with nothing on. I'd be sure to upset someone..."
"Not if you put up a high fence around the garden," grinned Sandymane, starting to join in with her brother's fun.
"Yeah," added Pimpernel, "nobody would see you then. Or any of us."
"N-n-now, children, I thought we agreed that we'd keep this inside the house. And I never said I'd join in."
"The backyard is part of the house," Sandymane giggled. "So it counts."
They continued to playfully tease her through breakfast, and when she finally stepped outside to begin her work, they even pretended to be ready to follow her.
"At least be dressed out here until I have the fence built please," Hazelhair rubbed her forehead stressfully.
"You reckon we could get her to join us, bro?" Sandymane whispered with a devious grin.
"Definitely," Pimpernel replied. "She just needs some... natural persuasion."
The two began giggling as they continued to plan.
Tales of the Green Hill Club: The Globe Family
A few months later
Hazelhair leaned in close to her husband as they continued on their daily morning walk through the woods in the park near their house. Surrounded by trees and shrubs, this route was generally secluded from the eyes of most, and the daring couple had now taken to doing nude hikes down it, in order to gradually build up their confidence in preparation for the naturist resort trip they had promised their children.
"We still need to find one in our price range," Smart Globe had said on the matter.
"And within reasonable distance," sighed Hazelhair. "Most of the few resorts I've discovered are at least a day or two's driving away. Not exactly realistic to make that kind of journey regularly."
"At least you finished the garden," Smart Globe kissed her on the cheek.
"Well, you and the children were a big help," Hazelhair smiled. Then, with a mischievous twinkle in her eyes, she added, "You know, we're kind of asking for trouble doing this, aren't we? Walking around naked in the woods without a fence to hide behind..."
"I'd say you'd found it," a woman's voice interrupted. The couple slowly turned around to see a woman in her thirties with her arms folded. She had pale green skin, black hair that was messily held back by clips, a black top and skirt as well as black heeled boots. Of course, Smart and Hazelhair's faces immediately assumed nervous expressions of mortified humiliation. Being nude out here in the unexpected presence of a fully-clothed stranger was quite different to being so with their children in the safety of their own home. Both were too shocked and afraid to bring themselves to move and hide behind trees, so Smart simply tried to cover himself with his hands while his wife hid most of her body behind his.
"Err... hello, miss...?"
"Willow Grove," the woman's stern expression slowly morphed into a playful smirk. "You two seem a little underdressed, don't ya think?"
"Oh... yes, it seems we are..." Hazelhair replied with a nervous chuckle.
"We weren't expecting to meet anyone..." Smart added, though his excuse felt rather pathetic even to himself.
"Y'know," Willow looked around to see if there was anyone else before leading the couple off the path. "I sometimes get the urge to do the same thing."
"You... you do?" For the second time within the last minute or two, the couple were almost speechless with surprise. They had honestly expected this woman to either threaten to report them or make fun of them - but here she was telling them that she had interest in doing the same as them!
"Normally, I do it at the club I'm a member of, but I would love to do it in public."
"Wait," said Hazelhair. "You're part of a club? As in, a nudist resort that's near these parts?"
"Of course," Willow smiled as she pulled off her shirt. "The Green Hill Club is about half an hour from here."
"That's... that's great!" smiled Smart Globe, his spirits starting to lift. "Our family is new to the lifestyle, and we've been looking for a resort that's near enough to take our kids to every week."
"How many kids you got?" Willow asked as she unbuttoned her pants and stepped out of them. "I'm starting a teaching job at Canterlot High in a couple weeks, so I might see them in my class."
"What a crazy coincidence," replied Hazelhair. "We have a teenaged daughter, Sandymane, and we've been making plans to enroll her at your school. Plus, there's our little son Pimpernel."
Smart Globe, meanwhile, tried not to let his eyes wander as more and more of Willow's bare flesh was revealed. He would not think of being unfaithful to his wife, but still could not help reacting to the presence of another naked woman.
"You may wanna get a towel to cover up," Willow smirked as her boots and socks joined the pile on the ground. Hazelhair looked down and noticed what she meant, and directed a frown at her embarrassed husband.
"Don't worry," Willow chuckled as her bra and underwear were the last things to go. "It happens to pretty much all newcomers. Once you get used to being around nude people, it generally stops being such a problem." She now stood naked in front of her new friends and began to stuff her clothes into the bag she carried. "You got some clothes handy, right?"
After a brief silence, Smart replied. "Not immediately at hand. We left ours in our car, back at the park."
Willow thought this over for a moment. "Where exactly did you park? Cause I know a shortcut to the parking lot."
"We're on the far right edge, right next to the woods," explained Hazelhair. "That way, we were able to strip in the car and sneak in among the trees quickly."
"Ah, so you know about the shortcut already then," Willow smiled as the trio continued their walk anew.
"So tell us more about this club," Smart Globe said. "Are there many families who attend? Our kids would appreciate being able to make friends within their age groups."
"It's very family-friendly, in fact, there's this one family I think you'll be fast friends with," Willow smirked, referring to the woman Rosie Peace and her two kids. She continued to describe the club and its activities as they proceeded further through the woods. After a while, Hazelhair stifled a laugh, earning odd looks from the other two.
"Sorry," she said. "It's just... apart from all of us being stark naked, this is... well, it's just like any regular conversation at the end of the day, isn't it? The irony just struck me as rather funny..."
"I felt the same," Willow chuckled as they reached the edge of the woods. Smart and Hazelhair saw their car parked right by the entrance.
"Hope to see you there soon," Willow waved as she began to get dressed.
"We'll look this place up and make a plan to visit," Smart smiled. "What was it called again - the Green Grass Club?"
"Green Hill ," his wife corrected him. "Now let's get in the car before we get noticed by anyone else."
Willow chuckled as she watched the couple tiptoe into their vehicle like a pair of sneaky children.
Soon Globe Family's house
Sandymane sighed to herself as she laid back in a lawn chair. She was reading a book, a favorite pastime of hers for as long as she could remember. But unlike in the past, she wasn't doing so moodily, or ready to lose her temper if interrupted. She was relaxed and happy, and wouldn't mind at all if her little brother Pimpernel decided to come and talk to her. Plus, of course, there was the prominent detail of her being nude as she read, like she now was for just about anything in her home. She sipped from her glass of blackcurrant juice as she turned the page.
"Hey, sis!" Pimpernel hugged her from behind, causing her to spill the drink on her chest again, just like that day that started their family's conversion to nudism. Pimpernel backed away in fear. "S-Sorry! It was an accident." But to his surprise, Sandymane started to laugh.
"It's okay," she grinned. "No shirt to stain this time. C'mere, you little rascal...!"
Before Pimpernel could avoid it, his sister playfully grabbed him and started tickling his stomach.
"N-No fair, sis!" Pimpernel said between laughs. The siblings wrestled and rolled throughout the garden, until they both plunged into the pond. Even when drenched and spluttering, Sandymane continued to giggle as she felt around for her glasses, which had fallen off in the water. Pimpernel ducked below the surface and soon retrieved them.
"Thanks, bro," Sandymane grinned as she put the glasses on. They then heard their parents' car pull up in the driveway.
"They're back from their little stroll," Sandymane remarked.
"Reckon someone saw them this time?" asked Pimpernel with a cheeky grin.
"Those woods are pretty isolated," Sandymane giggled as they heard the door open and the sound of clothes rustling. Their parents soon stepped into the garden, finding the siblings in the pond together.
"Have a nice walk?" Sandymane asked with a wry smile.
"Have a nice swim?" Hazelhair responded with a smirk of her own.
"Well, we have some great news, kids," Smart Globe grinned. "We found a nudist resort nearby."
"Awesome!" cheered Pimpernel.
"How do you feel about going up there next week?" Hazelhair asked. "Think of it as an end-of-summer present."
"Sure!" Sandymane smiled.
"Oh, we also seem to be having some new neighbors down the street," Smart Globe added.
"Will they be there too?" Pimpernel asked.
"It's kinda wishful thinking, I mean, they're moving into the neighborhood, not taking their clothes off."
"Don't worry, bro," said Sandymane. "I'm sure there'll be plenty of new friends to make at the club either way."
"So wanna do some nude stargazing tonight over dinner?" Hazelhair offered.
"Sounds like a plan," Smart Globe kissed his wife before they joined their kids in the pond.
A week later
Pimpernel could barely contain his excitement as the family car left Canterlot and onto the freeway.
Sandymane smirked as she witnessed her brother's inability to sit still. "Someone's eager to get his clothes off again," she teased.
All of them were fully dressed for this first journey, which the parents insisted would make it easier for them to ask directions if they lost their way. Of course, they wouldn't be wearing anything much longer once they reached the club and signed in. They soon reached the gate and pulled into the parking lot. As they stepped out of the car, they took a brief moment to gaze upon the beautiful landscape into which the club was built. Sandymane was particularly eager to explore the nature trails and indulge in her interest in studying bugs.
"Let's go sign in first, sweetie," Hazelhair patted her head.
As the family made their way to the club's reception desk, they ran into two other guests signing in. One was a woman in her late thirties, maybe early forties, who was pink in both skin and hair. There was also a teenaged girl who had blue skin and blue hair styled up in a ponytail. Like the Globes, they were both still fully dressed, and from the girl's slightly nervous expression, the Globes guessed she must be new to the nudist lifestyle as well.
"Hello," a slightly plump woman with indigo skin, grayish hair and blue eyes greeted the Globe family. "Welcome to the Green Hill Club. What's the duration of your stay?"
"For the weekend, thank you," Hazelhair replied. She signed her family's names into the guestbook the woman provided, and Smart was given a key to one of the cabins. Despite the club owner's nudity, he was able to remain calm - perhaps he was getting used to this faster than expected?
The pink-haired woman happened to glance at the number on the key, and she and the girl joined the Globes in walking out of the room. "Cabin 17? You got the one right next to ours!"
"Yes, we just moved from Trottingham," Smart Globe explained. "I'm Smart Globe and this is my wife Hazelhair and our children Sandymane and Pimpernel."
The siblings in question gave friendly little waves, much to the woman's amusement. "My name's Rosie Peace," she said, shaking Smart's hand as they reached the cabins.
Outside Cabin 16, two more youngsters were waiting: a teenaged boy who had green skin and green, white-streaked hair, and a young girl around Pimpernel's age, who shared her mother Rosie's pink hair and skin, had a short braid on the left side of her head, and green eyes that seemed to twinkle with playfulness and joy. Both of them were already naked and eagerly waiting to get inside.
"This is Flutter Heart, a friend of my son's," said Rosie, introducing the ponytailed girl. "Perhaps, once we've all gotten changed, we can look around the place together?"
"That sounds like a wonderful idea," Hazelhair replied, bowing her head in respect as she and the Globes carried their bags into their own cabin. It was a modest size with two bedrooms and a small kitchen. Smart Globe and Hazelhair set their suitcases on the sofa, taking notice of the TV in the room. Smart noticed a leaflet on a small table in front of the TV and skimmed through it.
"Ah, plenty of channels available," he observed. "Even when we take a break from outdoor activities, we won't be bored."
"Enough stalling!" cried Pimpernel, practically wriggling out of his clothes. Sandymane rolled her eyes as she began to disrobe as well.
"Come on, dear," smiled Hazelhair to her husband as she followed suit. "We're at a nudist club, and when in Rockville..."
Smart Globe sighed before beginning to take off his own clothes. Once all four were fully nude, they placed their attire into a bag, where it would remain until their return home.
"Shall we?" Hazelhair asked her husband. She offered her arm, and with a deep breath, Smart linked his with it. "All right. Here goes..."
The two parents stepped outside together to join the other equally nude club members. Their children followed, each giggling with excitement. Sandymane then noticed Rosie Peace and her family exiting their own cabin as well.
"Hello there!" She waved at their new friends.

Tales of the Green Hill Club: The Globe Family
A few days later
Sandymane and Pimpernel were still spending time at home sans clothing. Hazelhair and Smart Globe had begun getting used to it, but it was still a little awkward. The children had continued to playfully tease their mother, repeatedly remarking that the days ahead were predicted to be warm and that being naked would be so much more comfortable. They also talked about how they looked forward to being able to go around the garden in the same state, now that the fence she had been building around the garden was nearly complete.
Hazelhair tried to get their words out of her head while she got the gardening supplies out from her bag. Putting on her favorite sunhat, she inhaled deeply before stepping out into the backyard. Like her children said, the heat had increased to rather unforgivable levels. The hat shaded her head and eyes, but the rest of her body soon began to feel sticky and stifled. Even wearing a sleeveless shirt, a short skirt and open-toed sandals provided minor relief at best.
"Just focus," she told herself. "This garden won't finish by itself." She looked at one corner of the backyard, now covered in flowers. Through a mixture of sunflowers, tulips, snapdragons and rhododendrons, she had gradually been filling the garden with color. She had also sent orders for larger and more exotic additions like cypresses and cycad ferns.
"This place will be a paradise when I'm done with it," she said with a smile. "Like our own little Garden of Eden--"
Why did she have to say that? Through her own words, she ended up with visions of her children frolicking naked amongst all the plants in her head. She mentally slapped herself as she got on her knees to begin working. But the heat showed no signs of relenting, and the subject of nudity was equally stubborn about staying in her thoughts. When she accidentally tripped, her sandals fell off, and the feeling of the grass under her bare feet reminded her of how Pimpernel and Sandymane also no longer wore shoes or socks indoors, and probably wouldn't out in the garden either. She quickly looked around, hoping there was nobody that could see her. There was still a small gap in the fence that had yet to be filled, but if she was careful, she could avoid giving anyone a clear view through it.
'Am I really going to do this?'
Inhaling deeply again, she set her hat down and grasped the hem of her shirt, pulling it off. Then she unfastened her skirt, slid it down her legs and stepped out of it, leaving her in just her underwear. The sun did feel more lenient on her exposed skin, which encouraged her to go all the way. Steeling her nerves, she unhooked her bra and dropped it into the pile her other clothes had formed. Fighting the urge to try to hide her breasts, she then gripped her panties and slid them off too. Her exposed tan lines clashed with her brown skin as she stood in the middle of the yard for a few minutes, her head obviously swimming. Even with no one around to see her nudity, she couldn't help but blush. In an effort to break the tension, she made a nervous smile and said a quiet "Ta-da!" to herself. Confirming that she was indeed alone, she knelt back down to continue working.
It was certainly surreal being naked outdoors, even if she was only doing the same work she'd been doing over the last few days. But it undeniably made the heat more bearable, and she couldn't help but sigh happily as an occasional breeze washed over her exposed skin. Then she began to giggle to herself. She was remembering what it was like to be a child, adventurous and mischievous and always looking for a chance to do things behind her parents' back. What would her parents say if they could see her now? She ran her hands over her body, reminding herself of her exposure.
'I'm such a naughty girl!'
Unbeknownst to her, Sandymane and Pimpernel were watching the whole thing unfold from Sandymane's room.
"She's doing it!" Sandymane giggled. "We got through to her, bro!"
"Let's hope she'll commit to it full-time," Pimpernel grinned as they watched their mother continue her gardening in just her birthday suit.
Eventually Hazelhair's work for the day was finished, and it was the time she'd usually get back indoors and put her feet up. But rather than make her more eager to do that, being naked strangely made her want to stay out there, to enjoy the moment for as long as she could.
Mischief began to flare up in her again. Putting her sunhat back on, she began to playfully strut around the garden as if modelling on a catwalk. She paused near the willow tree and struck a pose.
"That's right, people," she said to an invisible audience. "This outfit is the next stylish thing, and the best part is you're already wearing one."
As she continued to fool around, she didn't notice that Pimpernel had snuck outside and was making his way towards her, using the plants as cover. So she was absolutely taken by surprise when he hugged her from behind, pressing their bodies together. Too shocked to speak, she just looked down at his grinning face with wide eyes, before seeing Sandymane also step out to join them.
"Hey, Mom," the girl smirked.
Here Hazelhair was, stark naked in her garden with her equally naked children. She couldn't help it. She started giggling, which quickly turned into all-out laughter. Pimpernel laughed too, and soon he and his mother fell over and were rolling around on the grass, tickling each other. Sandymane just shook her head and smiled, happy to see her brother and mother bonding so deeply, albeit in a rather ridiculous way.
"I'm so glad you listened to us!" Pimpernel said between laughs.
"I have to admit, it is more fun than I thought!" His mother replied.
Eventually they ran out of energy, and Hazelhair hugged her beloved son close to her as they lay together in their garden. Sandymane sat down next to them and cheekily ruffled her mother's hair.
"Welcome to the club, madam. Hope you enjoy the benefits." Hazelhair chuckled at her daughter's remark as the sun started to set and the stars were starting to become visible to their eyes.
"My goodness," said Hazelhair. "Have I really been out here that long?"
"Time flies when you're naked!" grinned Pimpernel, and his mother scoffed and rubbed his arm.
"You know," Sandymane remarked, "I remember when we all used to sit together and look at the stars, when I was little and you were just a baby, Pimpernel. To think, it took us all stripping off to make it happen again."
"We're just missing your father," Hazelhair sighed before chuckling. "He's sure going to be in for a surprise."
"Reckon we can convert him too?" asked Pimpernel.
"I don't know," his mother replied. "He's always been a bit on the sheepish side, ever since he was in school. I think I was the first girl he was ever brave enough to even talk to."
"Well, we'll be there to support him," Sandymane smiled as they heard his car pull up in the driveway.
Worn out from a long day working at the library that had generously employed him, Smart Globe entered the house with the intention of simply collapsing on the sofa and watching some television. Of course, he was more than a little surprised when he ran into his naked wife.
Hazelhair simply smiled and pecked him on the cheek. "Hello, darling. Hope today wasn't too taxing for you."
"H-Hazel!" He stammered as she followed him to the living room. "D-Did something happen to you?"
Hazelhair shrugged and smiled. "Well, it was uncomfortably warm today, and I couldn't stop thinking about what the kids said to me, and... well, here I am." She chuckled at the look on his face. "Come on, I'm your wife. You've seen everything I have to offer."
"In the bedroom or bathroom, yes..." Smart replied, reaching the sofa and settling into it to calm down. Hazelhair took her usual spot next to him, placing an arm around his neck.
"Well," she said casually, deliberately making sure her breast touched Smart's arm, "I think I'll be joining the kids in being nude around the house from now on. We were even nude in the garden today." She couldn't help but laugh when he actually spat out the coffee he was drinking upon hearing that part. "Relax, we weren't seen."
"So... you're serious about this?" Smart asked.
"Yep," Hazelhair smirked. "We're a nudist family now. Unless, of course, you don't want to join the fun?" she added with a playful pout.
"I'll... think about it," he answered after a few minutes.
Later that night
Hazelhair tried not to laugh again as she watched her husband undress while she sat, still naked, on the bed waiting for him.
"You'd save a lot of time if you weren't wearing anything in the first place," she remarked. Smart Globe paused, wearing just his underwear now.
"You really want me to join you," he sighed.
"It would be very nice," his wife replied with an endearing smile, crossing her legs and putting her hands together in a mock-pleading motion. A second later, Smart Globe's boxers dropped to the floor and his nude backside was fully exposed to his wife. Turning around, he climbed into bed while Hazelhair gave him a quick hug.
"Thanks, sweetie," she smiled, kissing his cheek.
"How about we surprise the kids about this tomorrow?" He offered.
"Sounds fun," his wife grinned. "In the meantime, I've got a surprise for you tonight..." Before Smart could ask what she meant, she suddenly climbed on top of him, a sly, seductive expression on her face. "Come on, big boy," she said. "Let's celebrate the start of our new lifestyle."
A few minutes later
Pimpernel awoke to the sound of a bed squeaking.
"Ugggh," he groaned. "That's gonna keep me up all night unless I stop what's causing it..."
He reluctantly slid out of bed and stepped out into the hallway to find the source of the noise. It seemed to be coming from his parents' bedroom. But as he approached the closed door, Sandymane suddenly rushed over to stop him from opening it.
"You don't wanna go in there right now, trust me," she whispered.
"What do you mean?" Pimpernel asked, raising an eyebrow.
"It's... a grownup thing. I know this is a cliché, but you'll understand when you're older. Let's go back to bed."
"That squeaking's gonna keep me up all night though..."
"Hmmmm," Sandymane thought for a moment. "How about you stay in my room tonight?"
"Really?" Pimpernel asked in astonishment. "You wouldn't mind?"
Sandymane smiled and placed a comforting hand on her brother's shoulder. "It's okay, bro. I won't mind."
"Even after all those times I've annoyed you in the past?"
"Things are different now. Call me crazy, but I think being naked all the time has made us much closer. It's like we've nothing to hide from each other anymore, y'know? You can share my room tonight, and any other night you need to, okay?"
Pimpernel hugged her. "I love you, sis." She patted his head as they headed to her room.
The next morning
Pimpernel woke up to feel soft, feminine flesh pressed against him. When Sandymane kissed him on the cheek, he remembered how she had let him share her room, and how they had fallen asleep snuggled against each other in her bed.
"Morning, Pimpy," his sister smiled, before turning away to reach for her glasses.
"Morning, Sandy," he smiled back as he climbed out of the bed and began to stretch.
"Let's go see if Mom and Dad have prepared breakfast," Sandymane said, taking her brother's hand and leading him out of her room and down the stairs. In the kitchen, Smart Globe was cooking them breakfast. He was currently wearing a red bathrobe while Hazelhair was sitting at the table, enjoying some coffee. She was as naked as her children, of course, as they would be expecting that.
"Hello, you two," she smiled as they entered the room. "Hope you slept well."
Sandymane blushed slightly at the reminder of why Pimpernel had been woken up.
"We slept fine," Pimpernel smiled.
"Well, I think working on the garden is going to be much more fun now," Hazelhair smirked.
"You should add in a pond too," her son replied.
"Yeah, in case you want a swim, huh?" Sandymane smirked.
"Of course!" He grinned as Smart Globe turned around, dropping his robe in the process.
"OH MY FAUST!" Sandymane yelped, turning away. Sure enough, their father had neglected to get dressed this morning. He brought the food over to the table before sitting down.
Pimpernel started to grin. "Does this mean you're joining us, Dad?"
Smart Globe sighed. "Yes, son, we're ALL nudists now. Your mother managed to talk me into it last night." He was surprised by his son hugging him tightly.
"You're gonna love it, Dad, trust me."
As Sandymane sat down to breakfast, she refused to look at her naked father until Hazelhair noticed.
"Honestly, Sandymane, you're as bad as he was when he first saw you."
"Really?" Sandymane blushed as her brother sat on the opposite side of the table.
"Yes. I can understand your awkwardness, but you're going to be seeing your father's unclothed body on a regular basis now. Might as well look at him and get accustomed to it."
"So you think we could do some naked family excursions?" Pimpernel asked as they ate breakfast.
"You mean to... nudist resorts?" Smart asked.
"Sure," said Pimpernel, treating the idea very casually.
"Surely you'll let me take time to get used to this at home first, son?"
"Yeah, Pimpernel, don't rush us into things," said Sandymane. "Remember that we all needed a chance to get used to being naked in our own house."
"What about walks in the forest?" Pimpernel asked.
"...I'm sure we could do that," Hazelhair agreed.
"So long as we can be sure nobody will be around to, err... see us ," remarked Smart nervously. "And I'm sure we'll be able to find an affordable nudist resort."
"Great!" Pimpernel smiled.
"We're spoiling you, bro, you know that?" said Sandymane. "But hey, I guess we've already gone this far, so..."
"Maybe there are nudists right in this neighborhood," Pimpernel joked.
"Well, if there are, they've done a good job of keeping it hidden from us," said Smart.
"Oh, that reminds me," said Hazelhair. "I'll be finishing the fence today, so we'll all be free to go around the garden as naked as we want. But once that's done, I'd appreciate it if someone helped me with the other gardening jobs on my list."
"Err, so long as we don't have to do anything that's too... gritty," said Sandymane. She was generally an "indoors" girl, and didn't like the idea of getting soil all over her.
"You can water the plants," Hazelhair smiled. "You won't get dirty doing that - a bit wet, maybe."
"I can do that," Sandymane shrugged.
"I'll help with the grubby stuff," offered Pimpernel with another grin. Like a lot of young boys, he didn't really mind getting dirty and even found it rather fun.
"And I'll start by helping you finish the fence," said Smart Globe, earning himself a kiss on the cheek from his wife.
"Thanks, hon."
Later, in the garden
With both the parents working together, it wasn't long before the Globe family's backyard fence was finally finished.
"Now we can be naked around home all the time!" Pimpernel cheered.
"We can indeed," chuckled Hazelhair, ruffling his hair. "Now, let's do this gardening together as one big happy nudist family, shall we?"
And so Pimpernel got busy digging holes in which to plant some cycad ferns that had arrived in the post before he and Sandymane awoke that morning. Smart Globe had to don a bathrobe to open the front door and bring them in, but Hazelhair had made him promise to remove it afterwards and wear nothing else for the rest of the day. Meanwhile Sandymane got busy around the other plants with a watering can, while their parents set up some hanging baskets filled with flowers around the back door.
At the same time, in the backyard next door, Fleur Dis Lee was currently doing some nude sunbathing when she heard the chatter from the Globe family.
"They must be having fun," she muttered to herself.
The chatter suddenly turned to shrieks and laughter, combined with the sound of a water hose.
"Mom, cut it out!" cried Sandymane. But she giggled as she said it, clearly having as much fun being sprayed as Pimpernel. Hazelhair smirked as she turned the hose onto the new flowers Pimpernel planted.
"He's the one who was crawling around in the soil, not me!" said Sandymane as her little brother continued to laugh. "He's the one that was getting dirty! Why spray both of us?"
"Honey, when it comes to gardening, one can never be sure," Hazelhair replied casually, her eyes still twinkling with mischief. Sandymane was taken aback by this new side of her mother making itself known.
"Mom's really loosened up, huh?" Pimpernel whispered to her.
"I'll say," Sandymane replied. "I guess stripping off really made her remember how to have fun. And all because you inspired us all by going around the house naked, eh, bro?"
"Don't give me all the credit!" Pimpernel grinned. "YOU were the one who stole my clothes and towels."
"Oh, so I'm the one who transformed our family's lives?" his sister joked. "You flatter me. But you have a point, to be honest. To think this all came from one little prank."
"Well, I'm glad it happened. Otherwise, we'd be the same boring old textile family, and you and I... well, we wouldn't have gotten closer, y'know?"
With a kind smile, Sandymane stooped down to hug him again. "I know. I promise to make up for all those times I was grumpy and mean, okay? From now on, I'll hang out with you whenever you want."
"Thanks, sis!" He smiled as he hugged her back.
