It was busy as usual in Manehatten, and Coco Pommel hummed as she worked on her next round of dresses for Bridleway. Her career was on the upswing with the help of Rarity, and she was looking forward to her visit soon. Her friend was visiting to see the newest play for which she was working on costume designs, after which, they would meet backstage and catch up. The day had been planned perfectly, and all she needed to do was finish up the dresses. Knock knock knock! The designer darted her head towards her apartment’s front door at the sound of a sudden knocking. “Um, yes? Hello?” She called out. No response. That’s odd, she thought as she approached the door. I don’t think I was expecting a visitor today. Opening the door, she gasped at what she was met with: Nopony. There was nopony in the halls, and nothing around save for a box left on the floor with her name on it. Upon closer inspection, the box had no return address or indication of what was inside. Okay, Coco thought with a bit more confidence. I’m almost positive that I haven’t ordered anything! This could be some kind of trick! Just as she was getting her nerve, it vanished and became replaced with doubt. “A-Although… Could it have been a prop the department ordered and just forgot to mention? It could have been an honest mistake… A-And it is addressed to me, so it’s not a crime if I open it…” Against her better judgment, Coco slowly opened the box. Inside was nothing more than a hat. It was a colorful jester’s hat, decorated in swirls and with spiral-decorated bells on the end of each sleeve. Around the brim of the hat was a golden rim along with a single blue gem that glowed in the light. “Oh my,” the mare gasped as she took the hat out. “This… This is quite the hat…! Whoever designed it must have been pretty skilled… I wonder if the costume department did order this for another show. I’ll have to bring it up to them later.” As she talked to herself, her eyes stayed focused on the gem. Its odd glow in the light of the sun was surprisingly alluring, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t look away for more than a couple of moments. Looking at it just made her… Smile. She had a small smile at first, jingling the bells with her hoof and giving a soft giggle. However, curiosity got the better of her and she gently slipped it on. The fit was perfect, almost as if it was made for her. Made for me… She giggled as she shook her head to jingle the bells. The sound made her brain feel like it was tickled on all sides by feathers. Her giggles got lighter as she hopped up and down in place. This hat… Was made for me… As she thought that, the gem’s light glow began to get brighter, and the bells quickly followed suit. Soon, Coco’s head became surrounded by the glow, one her eyes couldn’t avoid. Not that they wanted to, of course. Her eyes darted back and forth, the wonderful glow washing over her with every second she stared. Soon, her cyan eyes became overcome in a blue spiral, spinning around and around and making her mare feel dizzier and dizzier. “W-Woop da loop… Boop da shoop…~” She babbled as her eyes began to derp around. She stumbled around her office, her flanks knocking over mannequins and smashing things before she took a pratfall and landed tush first in a fit of giggles. “Wheeheheeee~!” she giggled while kicking her forelegs in the air. Her brain was so unfocused and filled with silly thoughts. It wasn’t until she noticed a nearby toppled mannequin and some fabric that those disjointed thoughts started to take form. Her muzzle scrunched adorably as she used all of her silly brains to think. “I gotta… Make outfits… For stage thingy… Make…” DING! A lightbulb appeared above her head only to crash down and shatter, leaving the mare dizzy and seeing stars and mare butts everywhere. “Heeheeheee… Oh! I can make fun things!” With that, she zipped off to grab the things she needed for her funnest plan. ~~~ The next day in the Bridleway theater, the mares of the play, from actresses to production to even the director herself, were huddled up in the costume room. One of the members of the costume department had mentioned that a bunch of mannequins were laid out in rows. All of them were covered in some cloth, but it was clear that these were all finished pieces. Already, murmurs filled the room. “Was this Coco…?” “I knew she had talent, but I didn’t think she’d work that hard…!” “Did she even sleep…?” The director, the mature Ms. Showboat, was far more skeptical. Nopony worthed that hard and fast without collapsing in on themselves or suffering quality issues. If anything, she was a bit concerned the mare might’ve overdone it and would need some days off to recover. However, she needed to see the state of the costumes. She stepped forward and slowly removed the cloth covering them… The mares gasped in shock. Standing before them were a number of costumes, but all of them were the same: jester outfits, each one unique in color but all spouting spiral designs and overdesigned jester hats. Suddenly, the whispers changed in tone. “Has she lost her mind…??” “Jesters have nothing to do with this production…!” “Oh, the colors clashing… I’m going to faint…!” This time, Ms. Showboat was more irritated than concerned. Rubbing her face with a groan, she looked to her crew. “Has anyone seen Ms. Pommel? I’m going to speak with her immediately.” “Riiiiight here boss~!” The sudden chipper tone caught everypony off guard, each mare looking around for its source. A mare leaped from the back, spinning several times before landing facefirst right beside the director. Everypony gasped and winced, but as soon as they saw who it was and that she was fine, their looks returned to shock and confusion. Standing there was Coco Pommel, her body wrapped in a jester suit that matched the ones on the mannequins. It was colored in bright red and blue and clung to every inch of her body, leaving nothing to the imagination. This time, Ms. Showboat prepared to lay out a serious grilling, but when Coco shook her head to shake the stars away, the jingling made everypony tense up, wobble in place, and relax for half a second. The director cleared her throat with a blush. “M-Ms. Pommel! Care to explain what these are?” She pointed with her hoof to the outfits, but the derpy-eyed jester designer looked at the costumes and burst into a flurry of giggles. “Those’re jester clothes, boss! I woulda thought ya knew what those were! Guess I’m smarter than tha boss!” As Coco rolled on the floor and giggled loudly, Ms. Showboat huffed out of her nostrils and put her hoof down. This caused Coco to look up, her smile dipping slightly. “Ms. Pommel! I did not ask you to make these outfits! We do not need jesters!” “Why not?” Before Ms. Showboat could respond, she was met with the jingling of Coco’s glowing bells. Her thoughts wavered off, her eyes focused on the bells. They sounded nice, and they made her brain feel… G-Good… She shook her head to try and focus. “B-Because, this production has no jesters!” “Awww, but why?” Coco giggled and jingled her cap-n-bells in Showboat’s face. “They’re so silly and sexy and fuuuun~! Don’t you like having fun, Boaty~?” “N-Ngh… D-Don’t call…” Ms. Showboat rubbed her head in confusion, trying her best to stay focused. The bells kept on jingling, tickling her brain and making her lose her concentration. Not to mention the glow kept moving her eyes toward the lights, the pretty pretty lights… How did they glow like that, she wondered as her eyes locked onto the gem. “I like having fun, and jesters are the most fun~! They make me giggly and dizzy and horny… You feel horny too, dontcha Boaty~?” The gem flashed once, causing Show’s orange eyes to swirl blue. Her pussy began to feel hot, dripping juices down the floor. “G-Giggly… Dizzy… Horny…” “Thaaat’s right~” Coco leaned in, jingling her bells. “And not just that! They’re so fun that everypony wants to be one! They just don’t know it yet~” The gem flashed again. “They… They don’t…?” “Nope! But the moment you put on the cap-n-bells and sliiiide on the suit, you’ll never wanna be anyone else~” The gem flashed one more time, and Showboat nodded slowly. “Y-Yes… Put on… Cap-n-Bells… Slide on… Suit…” was all that the director could murmur as she lumbered to the nearest one, a pink-and-green outfit. She slowly took the outfit off the mannequin and onto her body, and with each inch that slid onto her body, she would let out a loud moan and a giddy giggle. It felt like she was being tickled and hugged from every angle, the fabric clinging in all the right places. The moment the fabric gripped her wide flanks and clung to her hot pussy, she gasped and suddenly let out a wide smile. It wouldn’t take long for Showboat to slide on the rest of the outfit, leading to one last piece. She took the jester cap and slid it on, and the moment it was on her head, the bells and gem would glow a bright blue to match Coco’s cap. Her eyes swirled and derped as she babbled and wobbled around, bouncing in place in a massive giggle fit. Nothing but jesters and tomfoolery filled her mind, each foolish thought zipping around and making her hot and wet. Satisfied with her work, she turned to the rest of the crew. “Now, who’s next to be a silly, horny jestie~?” Normally, the mares would have bolted and have been long gone by the time she finished with Showboat. Thanks to Coco’s cap, the mares just stood, mesmerized and drooling. The estrus coming off them was obvious, making Coco giggle and shiver in delight. “No volunteers? Well, I better get ya fitted fast for our NEW performance~!” ~~~ When the initial production set to be performed for Bridleway was told to be canceled, many were quite upset. However, the guests were promised a new show, even better than what was promised. The guests all went but were reluctant for the most part. They were very much ready to be critical if it wasn’t going to live up to the example of the show they were promised. As the opening night rolled around, the ponies gathered in the theaters taking their seats. Rarity hoped that Coco was not put under any serious stress, considering she’d probably have had to make new costumes. However, she was confident her friend could pull it off. I think I’ll treat her to dinner and a spa day for pulling something like this off… She thought as the lights dimmed. “Fillies and gentlecolts! Welcome to Bridleway! We’ve got quite the show for you today!” The voice that seemed to come from nowhere was zippy, bombastic, and more fitting in a circus than a theater. The audience looked confused. “Now, put your hooves together for the juggling jesters, the pratfalling fools, it’s Boaty’s Big Butt Buffons!!” The curtains pulled open, revealing a stage that had been plastered in clashing colors, swirling spirals, and jester iconography as far as the eye could see. Several mares in jester outfits leaped about, performing admittedly impressive acrobatic moves followed by slapstick. They made cornball jokes and humiliated themselves, which was especially shocking as the director Ms. Showboat, now going by Boaty, was being used as a throne for Queen Coco, Queen of Fools, who would bonk her subjects with a golden scepter. It was so hard to tell if this was a parody of Equestrian rule or a lowbrow attempt at laughs, but as the girls performed and their glowing bells jingled, the audience began to chuckle. Then, they began to laugh. Then the laughing didn’t stop. Even Rarity, who wasn’t known for indulging in this kind of humor, couldn’t help but burst into a giggle fit as a jester mare slipped down a flight of stairs and ended up in the crotch of another jester mare. It was a nonsensical farce that she couldn’t look away from. The sounds of bells jingled in her mind, making the tickling feeling in her head happen over and over. She started to forget her stresses and worries as the production went on. Then, she started to forget what she was planning on doing when she finished. Then, she forgot more and more, her mind filling with sillier and sillier thoughts. Those silly thoughts then began to make her feel very, very wet, and without any shame, she began to rub her pussy to the show. And she wasn’t alone. Everypony in the audience rubbed themselves shamefully as they burst into giggle fits, moans mixing in on occasion as the show went on. How long it lasted and how many times the audience came was unknown, but by the end of it, everypony was a babbling, giggling mess with juices and cum spilling over. “Wowee! You all sure loved our show lots and lots!” Coco announced as the show wound down. “We hope you’ll keep coming and bring your friends! And a little something so you won’t forget…” The other jesterfied members of the crew pulled out a sack and began to throw jester hats onto the audience members. Each cap landed with perfect accuracy, making them jolt up with a wide grin. Soon, all of the audience left with a glowing jester hat on each head and a stupid smile on each face.
