…time to slowly wake up.
Vinyl yawned and stretched out, pulling the covers over her head for a moment to snuggle into the soft warmth of her bed for a moment longer, listening to the music from her headphones. She stretched a second time under the covers before poking her head out, squinting into the dim light of her room blearily and groping around her nightstand for her shades until she found them. Slipping them over her muzzle she relaxed a little, the bits of morning sunlight that made it through her blinds and curtains dimming down to a more acceptable level as it curled and swirled through the room.
She paused, frowning in confusion as she watched the spirals that seemed to overlay her vision no matter where she looked, wondering why they were-
It’s just your special shades you’re wearing for this special day.
Vinyl paused again and blinked at the thought. Today was a special day? She climbed out of bed and made her way over to her desk, perking up bit by bit as she remembered the date and shuffling through papers, old wrappers and empty cans until she found the calendar to confirm what she’d already been thinking. Circled several times in red was April 1st.
April Foals Day.
Vinyl grinned, carelessly tossing the calender back where it promptly slid behind the desk to join a growing pile of other letters and notes. April Foals Day was one of the best days of the year, especially since she’d met Octavia. Not that she wouldn’t try to prank her on any other day, but on April 1st she had not only carte blanche to go all out on her pranks, but also the added challenge of Octavia expecting her jokes and preparing accordingly for them. Not that it would help her any. Vinyl was a master of pranking and would always be several steps ahead of a novice like Tavi.
You should put on your special April Foals Day outfit.
Vinyl paused and blinked, turning towards the only somewhat clean and empty corner of the room where a large bag was placed, with the special outfit she’d bought… some time ago. She didn’t quite remember when or where she’d gotten it, probably because she was still a little sleepy and dizzy, but she knew that she’d bought it specifically for today and that she’d been waiting forever to finally wear it.
Opening the bag, her eyes glazed over a little as she pulled out the pieces of the outfit and looked them over, watching the faint swirls of her shades dance across them. Casting a quick cleaning spell to take care of her fur, she picked up the thick, soft pink diaper and spread her legs until she managed to fit the padding through them, threading her tail through the small hole in the back and finally taping it shut. She blushed a little at how it crinkled and cushioned her flanks when she sat down so she could better focus on the rest of the outfit.
Next came the dress, a frilly piece with poofy shoulders, a cute bowtie on the collar and an equally frilly apron poking out from it to cover only a small part of her large diaper. Next she picked up the long ribbon and clumsily threaded it into her mane, taking several attempts before it looked right. Finally she put on the long soft socks over all four of her legs and slipped into the cute pink hoofshoes with the hearts on them.
She paused, flailing her legs and wobbling back and forth on her thick diaper a few times until she managed to touch the floor with her hooves and stand back up. Blushing a little and dusting herself off, she paused again, looking herself over and wondering why this was her special April Foals outfit…
April Foals! She had to start preparing her pranks before Tavi woke up! She jumped and quickly waddled out of her room, her previous thought forgotten.
Sneaking downstairs as quietly as she could, she stopped in the kitchen and looked around, pondering where to start. She knew she’d made a whole bunch of plans but somehow she couldn’t remember a single one of them. Still, she was an expert at pranking and there were a dozen ways to mess with a kitchen before breakfast.
I bet Tavi would never expect me to make breakfast for her. It’s the perfect prank!
Vinyl blinked, then snickered at the thought, waddling over to the fridge to pull out ingredients and carry them over to the stove. Humming along with the music from her headphones she started to heat up some milk, giggling under her breath as she pictured the face Tavi would make when she came downstairs to find a full breakfast already prepared.
By the time Octavia walked into the kitchen, her place at the table was set with a full plate of scrambled eggs, haybacon, hashbrown and a side of buttered toast, along with a small platter of fruit slices, a cup of tea and a glass of fresh juice. Vinyl turned around from where she’d been rinsing out the frying pan to grin at the other mare, pushing her chest out.
“Oh my, you made breakfast for me? How unexpected and surprising.” Octavia raised an eyebrow with a small smirk, looking over the table before taking in Vinyl’s outfit and biting her lip.
“April Foals~!” Vinyl posed and took in Octavia’s scrunched face as the other mare tried to keep from laughing out loud. “Hah, you should see your face! I totally got you with this one!” She snickered and waddled over to the table, shaking her big padded butt.
“You certainly did. Is that why you are dressed like that?” Octavia held a hoof in front of her muzzle, watching her.
Vinyl paused, blushing lightly as she looked down at her outfit again. Why was she dressed like…
Only the biggest April Foal can wear such a cool and awesome April Foals outfit. Tavi is just jealous.
She perked up, posing and turning to properly show off her diaper to Tavi. “Of course! This is to show everypony who the biggest April Foal in Ponyville is this year!” She smirked, leaning forward. “Why, are ya jealous?”
Octavia snorted. “Oh, hardly. I’ll leave the foaling around to you.” She hummed and sat down at the table with a smirk. “Although, does that mean that I get that title if I prank you?”
“Hah, dream on!” Vinyl smirked and wiggled her butt before jumping up to scramble onto the big colorful plastic high chair on her side of the table. “I’m an… nnf… expert at pranks!” She kicked her legs to fit her thick padded butt into the seat before closing the plastic tray of the chair in front of her. “If you ever really tried to prank me, I’d see it coming from miles away.”
She sat proudly for a moment before blinking and frowning down at the table, leaning forward and stretching out her forelegs as she tried to reach the large bottle of milk sitting on her side of the table in place of her breakfast, her hooves coming several inches feet short.
Octavia covered another laugh with a cough, standing up and trotting around the table. “Do you need any help with that?” She picked up the bottle, holding it out to her friend.
Vinyl snatched it away from her and pulled it close, popping the rubber nipple in her mouth with a pout and mumbling around it. “Cood’ve dun it mahsewf…”
“Of course, dear.” Octavia chuckled and went back to her side to finish her own breakfast, occasionally glancing up at Vinyl with a smirk. “So, what are you planning for today, aside from being a general nuisance?”
“Hey, it’s April Foals Day! Playing pranks is, like, the law today!” Vinyl stuck out her tongue, squirming a little as she tried and failed to open her chair again around the empty bottle she was still holding. “So I’m gonna, uhm… one sec… stupid thing…”
Octavia chuckled and walked over, taking the bottle from her before picking Vinyl up with earth pony strength and lifting her back out of the chair. “Here, let me help you with that.”
Vinyl blushed as she was set down, kicking lightly at the chair. “Uhh, thanks. I totally had it.” She puffed out her cheeks in a pout.
“Of course you did.” Octavia smirked lightly. “Thank you again for making breakfast. I assume you’ll want to watch your shows now?”
Vinyl perked up, cheering and waddling running off into the living room as far as she could. Trying and failing to jump onto the couch, she blew it a raspberry and instead sat her cushioned crinkly april foal pillowbutt on the floor in front of it.
Grabbing the remote, she quickly turned on the TV and flicked away from Tavi’s boring news channel. It being Saturday meant that instead of having to deal with cheap noontime talk shows she could spend a couple hours watching Saturday morning cartoons. She switched through the channels towards the one that had her favorite nyanime block and right past it to land on a kids toons channel.
She blinked slightly in confusion, raising the remote to switch back before her eyes glazed over as she noticed the cute, colorful pictures filtered through the pink swirls of her shades and cheerful music playing over the quiet whispers in her headphones. Why would she want to switch back if she could be watching Fabulous Friendship Fillies instead?! Dropping the remote without a second thought, she giggled as she watched the simple and colorful character designs jump around on screen.
A couple episodes later she was completely transfixed, staring with wide sparkly eyes at the screen while occasionally rocking back and forth on her pamps, gasping at every obvious plot twist, giggling at every joke no matter how predictable, cheering for the characters whenever they solved a problem and singing along with the theme song at the start of every episode.
Eventually she started squirming more though, unable to distract herself from the position that large bottle of milk had left her in and whining a little as she tried to hold it in until the next commercial break. Just a minute or two longer and she could hurry to the…
She blinked, eyes focusing on the screen as the whispers in her headphones started up again. Where did she have to go again? If she went away then she couldn’t keep watching Fabulous Friendship Fillies! But she really had to… she had to do something?
Her eyes glazed over slightly as she puffed out her cheeks. Why did she have to do anything? She was the bestest April Foal in Equestria, if she didn’t want to stop watching her show then she shouldn’t have to! All she had to do was sit here and watch her show and relax and everything else would take care of itself. She smiled and nodded to herself, grinning proudly as she leaned back and spread her hind legs slightly, focusing back on her show while her diaper began to slowly grow in size.
“Having fun with your cartoons?”
Vinyl blinked, tearing her eyes away from the ads on the screen to look up at her roommate with a happy grin. “Uh-huh~”
Octavia smirked back at her. “Isn’t it about time for a bathroom break?”
Vinyl blinked, then blew a raspberry and puffed out her chest proudly. Shows what Tavi knew, no wonder she’d never be able to prank her. “Silly Tavi~! Vinyl Splash doesn’t take no bathroom breaks. I wet my frilly filly pamps like a proper April Foal.” She clumsily got to her hooves, wobbling as she turned around to show off her soggybutt to her friend. Her diaper had swelled up thick enough that she only managed to get three hooves on the floor at a time, which should definitely prove what a great April Foal she was.
“Oh my, that’s certainly impressive.” Octavia snorted and reached out to poke Vinyl’s diaper, making the unicorn squeak. “But if you don’t need a bathroom break, perhaps you need a diaper change instead.”
“A… oh yeah! I was just about to do that.” Vinyl puffed her chest out, stealthily looking around the room before spotting her April Foal corner. Clumsily waddling over with her hooves barely able to touch the floor, she rolled over to lay on the changing mat and started fumbling with the tapes of her diaper.
“Need some help there~?” Octavia followed after her to stand next to the mat, smirking down at her.
“No way! I can d-mmmpf!” Vinyl’s eyes widened as a pacifier was stuffed into her mouth, cutting her off. She glared up at Tavi to see her putting up a mobile made of glowsticks and tiny disco balls and sending it to slowly start spinning.
“Hey! I dun need a pacifiew, I’m not a… not a…” She slowly trailed off, eyes tracking the glowing and sparkling mobile around and around. “Nod a…”
“Aaaaand all done~”
Vinyl blinked a couple times, looking away from the mobile to find a fresh diaper around her flanks, even thicker and frillier than the previous one as far as she could tell. For a moment she felt like there was something she should complain about, but suckling on her paci and thinking about the mobile made that feeling go away and instead made her smile as she poked at her new pamps. “Yaaaaaaay~”
“And what do we say~?” Tavi leaned in a bit, getting her attention again.
Vinyl blinked and paused to think for a moment, then smiled up at the earth pony. “Fank oo~”
“That’s a good filly.” Tavi patted her head with a snicker before helping her up and letting the unicorn toddle off.
Vinyl smiled and suckled happily on her paci as she waddled back to the couch before pausing as she noticed the remote missing and the dark screen. “Why’sh da teevee off?”
“I thought you could use a little break from cartoons. Wouldn’t you rather play for a while?” Tavi smiled as she carried over a large box, tipping it out onto the carpet.
“Nuh-uh!” Vinyl puffed her cheeks out around her paci. “I wanna watch-” She cut off as she noticed the colorful toy blocks, wooden ponies and various other toys rolling and tumbling to a stop around her. “I… mebbeh I can pway a bit.” She picked up a toy block with both hooves to try and stack it onto another.
“That’s a good filly. I’ll let you know when you need to get ready for your show tonight~” Tavi snickered and walked off to get a camera.
She nodded, already distracted with another toy block and suckling on her paci in concentration. She’d be totally ready for her show later, but right now she had more important things to think about. Like getting this toy block to fit, slamming it up against a round opening. Whoever invented these dumb shaped holes was obviously a dumb stupidhead and she’d definitely beat them at their own stupid toy.
