Trixie's Less-Than Clean Magic Show

“Hey, Trixie? You here?”
“We just got back from town!”

A short distance away from the School of Friendship’s grounds, a modest purple wagon was parked out by a tree overlooking a spacious field. A homemade wooden stage had already been built with a couple days worth of work, and was firmly planted in place to serve as the forefront for the open show. By the time the first two ponies arrived, they were impressed to see how much had already been done.

“Oh, wow!” Starlight Glimmer, who had her horn lit and holding a styrofoam takeout package, floated it aside while looking past the stage with a smile. A gentle fall breeze floated past, which brushed up her skirt for a moment and exposed her bare knees. “Sunburst look, she already got all the seats out! And the props too!”

“Gee, she must’ve had a productive morning…” The orange stallion alongside Starlight appeared equally as pleased with their friend’s handiwork. He inspected the wooden stage for a moment with his hands on his hips, but a sing-song voice caught both of the ponies’ attention. The two turned their heads just in time to see the door of the wagon burst open, and a familiar powder-blue mare emerged in her trademark cape and tailor-made suit. “Oh, there you are, Trixie!” Sunburst was the first to greet her as he and Starlight waved her over. “Great job with the prep-work, by the way!”

“Oh, thank you, Sunburst!” Trixie was grinning all cheery when she exited her mobile home, and she gave a gentle blow to the steam emerging from the plain white coffee mug clasped in her hand. After taking a sip, she happily put her drink down when she was given the container from Starlight and her magic. “Oh my, what’s this?”

“Well, since you were nice enough to treat us to breakfast, we decided to get you something as a thank-you.” The pink mare smiled warmly, and nudged Sunburst’s side with anticipation. Trixie actually gasped with an elated smile, and squeed a little in surprise. She hadn’t expected either of them to treat her when she arranged this plan, but she was more than happy to accept a full order of peanut-butter crackers. It was a nice enough gesture to make her pause for a moment, almost as if she was second-guessing something on her mind. Regardless, she made a quick huff before accepting the gift without pause.

“Oh, thank you both so much…” Trixie put her food aside for now, and skipped over to the stage. “However! Despite how hard I may have been working, I still need both of you to help me for today’s big show.”

“Well, that’s why we’re here!” Starlight seemed downright giddy to get things started, and was already looking around while following Trixie onto the stage. She even motioned back at Sunburst to add, “Heck, this guy even passed out fliers around the school promoting it!”

Trixe was facing away from the two, so she allowed a more devilish smile to appear for a split-second. “Oh, that’s just wonderful~”

By the time she turned back towards her friends, her smile became more innocent with a casual tone of voice. “Well, as long as you two are ready to start, I’ll get your uniforms ready!”

She trotted off towards the “backstage room,” which was nothing more than a couple vintage crates behind a hanging red curtain. In the meantime, Sunburst and Starlight were left to look around and inspect the items already pre-built onto the stage. One of them was a large circular board hung slightly oblong against a wooden frame, with padded cuffs to allow somepony to be latched in place; Sunburst had enough knowledge to know those were usually meant to spin in place, and could even be implemented in more dangerous weapon-related stunts. Starlight was more focused on the other item on stage that she was more familiar with: a long, coffin-like container with wooden walls all around (all painted in a light blue with multicolored stars to match the magician’s aesthetics), which could be split into three distinct pieces for a “pony cut in half” act.

“Well, I can see why she needs two volunteers for this show…” She walked over to the box, which was suspended on a frame with wheels on the bottom for easier use. “So, you have any preferences yourself? I know how to do either one, so it’s up to you.”

“Ehhh, let’s hear what she has planned out first…” Sunburst cautiously reached out and pulled down on one side of the large circular board. It spun around with surprising ease, with the bearings freshly greased to ensure a smooth motion all around. “Hmmm… Just to clarify, has she ever thrown anything at you while you were in this?”

“Ehh, nothing dangerous? The worst is maybe a tomato or some eggs, but only when she warns me first.”

“Wait, she actually…” Sunburst turned around with a more baffled stare at the mare; however, considering how she and Trixie had traveled together for shows, he could only guess what hijinks the two had gotten into during their work. He eventually shrugged and went, “Ehh, nevermind. I’m curious though, why did she need us so early?”

“It’s so I could make sure I got you properly fitted in my brand new Assistant Outfits!”

Trixie triumphantly emerged from the backstage with a smile as bright as her illuminated horn. In her aura, she had two identical garments hovering with what looked to be powder-blue spandex. The material was thin and elastic enough to almost look like two child-sized rompers in her magic, although the tiny prints of yellow and white stars still stood out brightly. Sunburst and Starlight’s eyes widened in surprise, and they accepted the outfits when they were floated into their open arms. “Whoa… what the…”

Starlight was amazed when she actually held the material in her hands, quickly realizing this wasn’t some cheap fabric bought on discount like most of Trixie’s frugal efforts. “Holy… Trixie, is this custom-made?!”

“Indeed it is! I commissioned Rarity herself to craft up two jumpsuits, with the same type of lycra used for the Wonderbolts’ flight uniforms.” She smiled proudly with that last part, looking absolutely delighted to attain such high-quality products for her latest performance. Of course, despite how generous and pricey the suits must have costed her, it also left both of her friends looking more than a little baffled.

“Ummm… W-Wow…” Sunburst huffed with a blushed smile, and tugged on the lycra to feel how elastic it was in his grip. Compared to his meager sweater-vest and khakis, he almost felt a bit underdressed in comparison. He shrugged with an impressed smirk. “Trixie, this… these are really nice!”

“Yeah I agree…” Starlight had her reservations, but she was quick to smile back at her friend graciously. “Thank you, Trixie! I’m really impressed you went this far!”

“Well, I was meaning to improve certain aspects of my production for a while anyway. I might as well start with you two…” With that sincerely spoken reply, Trixie was smirking just subtly enough to keep either of her friends from noticing anything too wary. Of course, she knew that she had to wait for her next gift before beginning any reassurances. “However… I do have to warn the two of you about a… tiny design flaw that might be an issue for this morning…”

She walked up to Sunburst, and pointed to the back of the costume where a discrete zipper was hidden just beneath the back of the neck collar. “From what Rarity and Rainbow Dash told me, these one-piece jumpsuits are notoriously difficult to get out of sometimes. And since I have three shows in a row planned for this morning, I conside--”

“Wait, what?!” shouted both ponies at the same time.

“Please! At least try to allow Trixie to finish…” After closing her eyes and taking a deep breath to overcome that rudeness, Trixie sighed and regained her composure. “As I was saying… I have a small window between shows, which would have been difficult enough without any costumes on hand. But with the addition of these suits, I’m afraid I might actually… not be able to legally use them?”

Trixie gave an apologetic wince, while the other two unicorns looked back at each other confusedly. “Legally?!”

“Well, according to Equestrian labor laws, yes. Trixie had to take a business class as part of reformation training…” She then cleared her throat before reciting the stature in her head. “Any job that takes more than two and a half hours has to include mandatory bathroom breaks. And unfortunately… it might be technically impossible to get in and out of those in time between shows for such a thing.”

“Well, why not just do two shows instead of three?” asked Sunburst with a raised brow. “It seems kinda weird to have that many in one morning.”

“Well, how do you think Trixie got the funds to afford those suits?! I had to take a LOT of pre-payments for tickets, and I can’t exactly refund them now.”

That made both ponies wince and suck air through their teeth. “Ooooofffffff…”

“Yeah… Yeah, I know…” Even Trixie cringed from her admission. “I… I believe this is what’s called a… Catch Twenty-Two?”

“Sounds about right…” Starlight was the one to nod with a reluctant huff. “You want to use these costumes to justify buying them, but… you also can’t use them because of how many tickets you sold?”

Trixie didn’t say much. Instead, she merely whinnied a little before nodding with her head hung low. “Well… there might be a way…”

The way she emphasized that statement was enough to make both their brows raise puzzledly. Trixie bit her lip for a second in trepidation, but quickly sighed before lighting up her horn once more. “If you wanted to wear the costumes, you likely wouldn’t be able to remove them for at least three hours. Each show would be around fifty minutes long, and those ten minutes in between would mostly be sent resetting all my props correctly. Bathroom breaks would be nearly impossible, so…”

That was when Trixie unveiled the other element of her costumes for the two assistants, which made both of them gasp with more stunned reactions. The two blushed profusely, with Sunburst’s muzzle going agape in silent shock. Meanwhile, Starlight had to blink repeatedly before asking, “Trixie, are… are those…”

She couldn’t even finish her words, and could only gawk at the two white rectangles of crinkly plastic floating in Trixie’s aura. In response, the mare sighed and rolled her eyes. “Yes, Starlight. They are indeed diapers.”

To Trixie’s credit, she made sure to attain a couple of plain-white, adult-sized diapers which looked to be medical grade. The padding appeared to be rather thick, although that did little to ease either of their minds. If anything, that just made the skin-tight outfits a little less appealing. Sunburst could barely get his goatee off the floor before blurting out, “Wait, so you… You mean to tell us that we HAVE to wear diapers?!”

“Only if you agree to wear the costumes, then… yes, I’m afraid so…” Trixie sighed with a more forlorn look, and shrugged before adding, “But if it helps, it’s only for three hours. I highly doubt anything could happen in that short amount of time.”

That point was enough to make both of them pause and think things out more logically. If what Trixie was saying was true, chances were good that bathroom breaks would indeed be tricky, even if they both remained bare for the entirety of the show. Not to mention, doing that would also basically be the equivalent of trashing Trixie’s hard work getting the costumes made. The two had to look back at each other with conflicted stares, but neither of them wanted to be the one to suggest such an insulting alternative…

Starlight was the first to reluctantly take one of the diapers from Trixie’s magic with a free hand. “So, uhhh… we just have to wear them, right? We don’t have to, like… you know…”

Just the thought alone was enough to make her and Sunburst shudder with uncomfortable grimaces. Luckily, Trixie waved a hand reassuredly. “Oh, heavens no! In fact, Trixie hopes that neither of you have to deal with such a thing…”

To sweeten the deal, Trixie even pointed over to one of her costume chests. “If it helps, I also have a couple spare capes you two could use to hide the bulges. Although they would need to be removed for the bondage acts.”

“Hmmm… Well…” Starlight clearly felt some hesitance, and seemed uncomfortable while holding that diaper in her hand. Her fingers squeezed the tiniest bit, but she could hear that plasticy crinkle clear as day. But alas, despite the multiple red flags going off in her head, she decided to just shrug and reply, “Ugh… Oh alright, fine…”

Sunburst looked back at her wide-eyed. “W-Wait, really?!”

“Well, you have a better idea? Besides, we just had that buffet less than an hour ago. We have plenty of time before worrying about anything.”

Sunburst had his muzzle clenched in slight worry, but he tried not to show his hesitancy when he accepted the other floating diaper. He unfolded it with his hands, which made him bush even heavier when he noted how thick the interior padding was; this was definitely meant for more than just the brief “accident,” that’s for sure. “Yikes… You really needed to get these kinds?”

“What?! I didn’t want to risk any leaks! Do YOU know how to get urine stains out of lycra, Mister Vice-Headmare?”

Sunburst raised a finger like he wanted to say something, but eventually closed his muzzle with an awkward shrug. As much as he hated to admit it, a poofy diaper seemed less consequential than paying an overpriced dry-cleaning bill. He sighed through his nostrils and looked back at Starlight, but she was already looking around with a heavy blush in contemplation. Trixie was standing smug with her arms crossed in wait, as if she could tell what her friends were already thinking. Eventually, Sunburst was the first to break the silence with a reluctant sigh.

“Ughhh… S-So, umm… Do you have someplace for us to… put these on privately?”

Trixie pointed over to her mobile home with a thankful smile. “The package for extra pairs are inside if you need the instructions~”

Sunburst was almost offended by such an assumption, and he huffed when he walked off with a deeper blush. He had his lips pursed when he entered the trailer with the costume and diaper in his hands. Meanwhile, Starlight was standing awkwardly with her own pairs out in the open. Much to her surprise, Trixie nudged her and whispered away from the trailer, “Hey, you want my help getting it on?~”

“W-WHAT?!” She hissed with her eyes nearly bulging out of her skull. Starlight gawked back at her friend, who merely shrugged her head and motioned back at her cart.

“What? I’ve already seen more than enough from you when we traveled together, remember? Plus, I bet I could get you dressed before he gets out.”

Starlight was blushing hard, but she was left frozen for a split-second while darting her eyes between Trixie and the trailer. Sure, she could easily slip backstage, but there was a whole open space on the other end with a forest in view. Any pervert or wayward hiker could look over at the wrong time and see something they really shouldn’t; and even if a pony wasn’t there, any woodland creature could scurry off and tell Fluttershy what Starlight was wearing. But alas, after biting her lip cautiously, she decided to pull back from Trixie and shake her head. “Ehh, you know what? I’d rather not risk anypony seeing that out in the open, you know?”

“Alright, alright. Trixie completely understands…” She nodded and backed away respectfully, not seeming offended by her friend’s hesitancy. Luckily for them, Sunburst was only in the trailer for another minute before emerging in a sheepish manner.

“Uhhh… g-guys?” Sunburst’s face was as red as a tomato behind his glasses, which were slightly fogged-over from the heat radiating off his cheeks. When he stepped out of the trailer, his nerdy outfit was now replaced with a full-body suit that hugged every curve of his skinny, lanky figure. His orange coat was replaced with a powder-blue color similar to Trixie’s trademark style, and the stars were expanded out through the elastic to hug his limbs and sides. Unfortunately, around the stallion’s waist was a faint, but still noticeable bulge of what looked to be soft padding; it also went over his crotch and rump, both consoring and emphasizing any bulges at the same time. If Sunburst was walking around normally, it might not be too easy to tell he was wearing a diaper. Although, that may have just been because the thick padding was bunched up against the lycra, dry and unable to expand…

“Ummm… Jeeze, this feels a lot more exposing than I thought…” Sunburst was trying to cover his midsection with both arms awkwardly, while Starlight walked into the trailer after her friend. Trixie was gracious enough to get a spare cape from her chest to float over towards him with her magic. It only went down a couple inches past Sunburst’s waist when strapped around his shoulders, but it was still comforting enough to make him smile. “Oh, thank you!”

“Oh, it’s no problem at all…” She got up behind the stallion with an assuming smirk, and took a second to inspect the back of his lycra getup. She kept her horn lit to float over a bottle of water she had nearby, as well as another bottle for herself. She took the much smaller container without Sunburst taking notice, and gave him the water from behind. “Here, it’s good to stay hydrated.”

“Ooh, good thinking!” Sunburst uncapped the bottle and took a hearty swig, happy by how cold and refreshing it was while wrapped in so much snug material. Trixie even took that moment to pull up the zipper all the way on the back of his collar, which he had an issue figuring out.

“Hmph~ Perfect…” Trixie gave him a pat on the shoulder, and walked away just as they heard the trailer door reopening. Starlight Glimmer was the next to emerge with her jumpsuit on, and was blushing for more than the diaper bulging around her waist. Much like Sunburst, her medical padding left a somewhat-visible bulge against the blue lycra hugging her body so tightly. But unlike the stallion, Starlight’s wider hips and perky breasts were somewhat accentuated by the suit’s elastic material; her size-B cup-size now looked like a pair of C’s, and her diaper didn’t help to make it look like she had a much plumper ass.

“Uhhh, c-can I please have a cape too?!” Starlight already had her horn lit when Trixie opened her props-chest, and she quickly snatched the other spare cape with her magic. She strapped it on and sighed in relief, glad that her chest could be covered by the gaudy accessory for most of her performances. Of course, as she waddled back towards her friend with her heavy blush, she took a moment to glance back at the equipment and blurted, “Hey, ummm… I think I’d rather take the ‘Cut-In Half’ act if you don’t mind.”

“Oh yeah! T-Totally…” Sunburst saw enough of the mare’s rack to still be blushing when he nodded in understanding. He didn’t like the idea of being strapped with his padded crotch out in the open, but he’d rather endure that embarrassment if it meant his friend wouldn’t be sexualized on stage. She made sure to nod with a silently sincere smile, and covered herself a little more beneath her cloak.

“Okay! Now that we got all that out of the way…” Trixie handed another water bottle to Starlight, and then got up behind the mare to check her zipper as well. “Just a moment, I need to get this…”

She made sure that she was out of Starlight and Sunburst’s line of sight, and discreetly slid out that tiny bottle she had stashed in her sleeve. She uncapped the top, revealing the thin applicator tube that only needed the tiniest dollop for instant effect. Just like with Sunburst, Trixie got the smallest droplet of super-glue directly on the zipper, locking it into the collar without any chance of movement. After tucking the glue bottle back in her sleeve, she pulled away with a satisfied smile. “Alright, both of you are good! Now, let’s go over the show details before our first performance…”

Since the trio still had half an hour before their first of three shows, Trixie took charge when she stood before them on the stage and began her presentation. While she spoke, she used her magic to float away the empty bottles from Starlight and Sunburst’s hands. Neither of them minded when the bottles were floated out of view, along with Trixie’s glue-bottle, and tossed into a small trash-can stashed backstage…

… Unbeknownst to either of the ponies, they had no idea of the other bottles that Trixie had thrown away earlier. Among those were two identical water bottles which were cut in half, and carefully taken apart so the caps could be removed without breaking the seal. And on the very bottom, much larger than any of the others, was a brown glass bottle with a bright green label on the front:

‘Maltitol: Scent-Free’

‘Extra Strength Relief’

Trixie was grateful that she had enough self control to keep from smiling so evilly while explaining her routine to her friends. Of course, considering what she had planned for the big finale, she was confident that she would still have the best self-control by the end…
