"Oh, Fluttershy! Our picnic was today!? I'm sorry, I just have a lot to do. I'm afraid we'll have to reschedule," Twilight said. She looked rather dishevled. Her hair was all out of place and she had bags under her eyes.
"Oh, it's okay," Fluttershy said with a smile.
She sighed and left. She didn't want to say anything but this had been the third time that Twilight had to reschedule this month alone. Fluttershy wanted to tell Twilight that she had to calm down and relax some, but she didn't want to hurt Twilight's feelings. As Fluttershy was wandering her mind, she lost focus of where she was going and fell down a hill hitting her head hard on the way down. When she opened her eyes she saw a little filly smiling in its mother's arms. Fluttershy smiled. She had an idea.
Sometime later, Fluttershy returned to the library. Her saddlebags were filled with all the supplies she was going to need. As she was about to knock on the door, Spike opened it. He looked pretty relieved.
"Sorry Fluttershy, Twilight worked herself so hard she pretty much crashed and burned. It took me forever to get her into bed. Anyway, I'm off to the lake to relax. Twilight has been working me day and night."
Fluttershy's grin grew. This was perfect. She had no idea how she'd get Twilight to go along with her little plan. There was no way that Twilight would be willing to agree to a little rest and relaxation in her current frame of mind, so maybe if she started in it then things would go according to plan.
Fluttershy let herself into the library and took a padlock out of her saddlebags. She locked the front door and put the key back in her bag. That would stop anypony from coming in and interrupting Twilight's relaxation time. Fluttershy climbed the stairs into Twilight's room to see her sleeping. Fluttershy thought that she looked so precious, until it was clear that she was having a nightmare. Even in her dreams Twilight had to worry. Well, Fluttershy would put a stop to that.
Fluttershy took a bottle out of her saddlebag. It was filled to the brim with poison joke. She opened it over Twilight. Now that silly little filly wouldn't have to worry about obsessing over spells, Fluttershy chuckled to herself as Twilight's horn flopped. Fluttershy then took a diaper and some foal powder out of her saddlebags and as she got Twilight ready for the afternoon, she smiled to herself at her perfect plan. Foals don't have to worry about anything. Twilight worries way too much, so the best solution was clearly to let Twilight spend some time as a foal.
Twilight came to. She felt incredibly refreshed at her nap. Nap? No, she couldn't nap! Not when she had so much to do! Twilight rolled over to feel something big and bulky between her legs. She looked down and saw a diaper padding her rear. And it was wet. No, this couldn't be. She had to still be dreaming! Yeah, that was it. Twilight flicked herself in her shoulder. Nope she felt it. This definately wasn't a dream. How'd she get a diaper on her? And what's more how did she...
"Spike, what did you do to me!?" Twilight demanded, sitting up.
"Oh good, you're up!" said a very soft voice. "Oh, it looks like you had an accident. Come on, I brought fresh diapers. We'll get you changed."
"FLUTTERSHY!?" Twilight shouted. "What in the wide world of Equestria do you think you're doing?"
"What's it look like, silly filly? I'm foalsitting," Fluttershy said as she pulled a diaper and some foal powder from her saddlebag. "Now let's get that wet diaper off of you."
"Are you crazy!? I'm an adult. I don't need a foalsitter!"
"Oh don't worry. It won't cost you a bit," Fluttershy said with a smile as she reached for Twilight's diaper.
Twilight tried to use a spell to push Fluttershy away. She concentrated as hard as she could, but nothing seemed to happen. She tried to teleport. Once again, nothing happened. Fluttershy began to change Twilight's diaper. Twilight's cheeks turned red with embarrasement.
"You don't need to change me!" Twilight practically screamed.
"Yes I do," Fluttershy said with a straight face. "If we don't get this diaper off then you're going to get diaper rash. And trust me, you don't want that."
Fluttershy went back to changing Twilight. Twilight once again tried every spell in her repitoire, but absolutely nothing worked. Fluttershy didn't even seem to notice her friend struggling to escape. As soon as the diaper was off, Twilight rolled out of bed and crashed onto the floor. She struggled to run away, but in her panic she tripped over her own hooves. As she lay on the ground she felt something warm trickling down her legs.
Twilight looked to herself to see that she had urinated on herself and the floor around her. How could this happen? She didn't even feel it! Twilight felt water in her eyes and seconds later tears were dripping down her face. She was... crying? The suddenness of the situation caused her to wail out in sadness.
"Oh, you had an accident on the floor," Fluttershy said, still in her calm demeanor. "Don't worry about, I'll clean it up after we get a fresh diaper on you. Come on, back up onto the bed."
Fluttershy pushed Twilight back up on the bed. She didn't fight back. She was taken aback by what she herself had just done, and wondered why. As Fluttershy cleaned Twilight up, she stopped crying, once again beyond her control. There were still some sniffles until Fluttershy had secured a diaper snuggly on Twilight.
"Isn't that better?" Fluttershy said with a wide grin. "Oh, and don't worry if you have to go again. I brought plenty of diapers for changes."
"Why are you doing this?" Twilight asked, still desperately trying to put things together. This seemed like something that Pinkie Pie would be doing, if she breathed in dragon fumes.
"Twilight, did you know that you've rescheduled our time together three times this month?"
"Wait? This is out of revenge? I don't spend time with you, so you turn me into a foal? First of all, that seems really out of character. Secondly, This. Is. CRAZY!"
"You misunderstand," Fluttershy said, "this isn't for me. This is for you. Twilight, you've been doing all sorts of reports and work. You've got to relax a little or you'll end up going crazy... again. All you have to do this afternoon if relax and nanny Fluttershy will take care of everything!"
"Oh my gosh! My report! I've got to finish it!" Twilight said, panicking.
"See that's what I'm talking about—" Fluttershy said before she was cut off by Twilight's stomach rumbling. "Oh, looks like you're hungry. Come on, I made you lunch."
Twilight was completely unsure what to do. Her magic wasn't working. Fluttershy had completely lost her mind, and she had a diaper on. Then Twilight realized that Fluttershy was out of the room. This was her chance to escape, or at least get this diaper off. She tried pushing it off but found herself unable to. It was like it was locked on or stuck or something. Twilight's stomach started grumbling again, and she felt like crying once more. It was an urge she couldn't resist and gave in, as if it was the most natural thing in the world.
"Oh. It looks like the poison joke is making you act more foalish," Flutershy said, reentering the room. "Come on Twilight, I got your high chair all set up."
"What?" Twilight said, stopping dead in her tracks.
"I rubbed some poison joke on your horn so that pesky magic didn't get in the way of our time together. It looks like it had some side effects," Fluttershy said, patting Twilight on the head. "I'll take care of everything. Don't worry about it."
"EXCUSE ME!?" Twilight shouted, furious.
"I thought that you spent so much time practicing magic that you just needed a break of some sort, but I knew you'd never agree to it—you're too dilligent for your own good—so I needed to help you see things my way."
"I'm sorry but I still don't see things in shades of CRAZY!"
"Ooh, you're getting fussy. Come on, I've got lunch ready."
Twilight couldn't fight the urge to follow Fluttershy down to the kitchen, but it didn't stop her from complaining the whole way there. Fluttershy didn't seem to hear a word of it. She just hummed a merry little tune as Twilight was forced to follow along. Sure enough, Fluttershy had set up an adult-sized high chair right in the middle of Twilight's kitchen.
Twilight may have been under the mercy of the poison joke, but she still had pride. She tried her hardest to stay in place, and to her relief it seemed to be working. Her muscles twitched and she felt her hoof tapping, but she was holding herself back.
"Oh, do you need some help?" Fluttershy asked..
Before Twilight could answer, Fluttershy pushed her forward into the chair. Twilight tried to jump out, but Fluttershy locked her in. Twilight struggled to get out. She struggled to use some kind of magic, but nothing would work. It was only when Fluttershy tied a bib around Twilight's neck did the outright humiliation finally sink in. Twilight tried to bargain, but as soon as she opened her mouth Fluttershy shoved a spoonful of oatmeal in.
The surprise caused Twilight to spit it out all over her bib. Fluttershy just giggled and tossed another spoonful in. Once again Twilight spit it up, this time out of disobedience rather than surprise. Fluttershy started to look a little bit annoyed, but still kept a happy smile.
"Twilight, I'm not letting you out of this chair until you've eaten all of this oatmeal no matter how many times you spit it up. You work so hard you forget to eat sometimes. I want to make sure that you don't starve your poor little self. Now come on, open up. I put lots of cinnamon in it. It's good."
The poison joke took over once again and Twilight felt her mouth swing open. In went the oatmeal and Twilight's mouth closed—once again beyond her control. She tried to spit it out again, but the poison joke wouldn't let her. Twilight was forced to swallow, which caused Fluttershy to beam even wider.
"See? It's good. Just relax and let Fluttershy take care of everything."
The meal continued for what felt like forever. Twilight still wasn't convinced that this whole scenario was real. One of her best friends had gone bonkers and was treating her like a foal. Even in her most demented nightmares her friends never did something so surreal. It didn't stop the humilation from building up. With each spoonful of oatmeal Twilight felt her dignity slipping more and more away. Each time Twilight tried to talk she found herself with another mouthful of the stuff. When the meal was done Fluttershy walked away.
"Hey, you said you'd let me out of this chair!" Twilight shouted.
"Just thought that you'd want something to wash that oatmeal down with," Fluttershy said when she returned. Twilight looked at her quizzically until Fluttershy unveiled a bottle full of milk.
"Oh no, you're not going to—" Twilight managed to blurt out before Fluttershy pushed the bottle into her mouth.
Twilight refused to start sucking. A few minutes went by before Fluttershy sighed. Twilight felt some relief. Did she manage to trip Fluttershy's demented plan up? That relief disappeared when Fluttershy held Twilight's nose closed. Twilight couldn't breathe. She felt her lungs get tighter and tighter, but Fluttershy wouldn't let go. Finally Twilight began sucking the milk in desperation. The second Fluttershy realized this she let go of Twilight's nose, but Twilight couldn't stop sucking.
"There, there," Fluttershy said in a sing-song voice. "See how much better everything is when you listen to nanny Fluttershy?"
As the minutes crawled by the bottle finally became empty. As soon as Fluttershy removed the bottle from Twilight's mouth, her head hit the table of the chair and she let out a tired burp. It almost felt like her eyes were spinning around in her head. That was a surprising ammount of milk, and it wasn't sitting well with the oatmeal.
True to her word, Fluttershy let Twilight out of the high chair. Twilight used this opportunity to make a break for it. She didn't care if the whole town saw her in a diaper, she had to get out of this madhouse before Fluttershy brought Twilight further into crazytown. Twilight banged on her front door, but it wouldn't budge. She noticed a padlock on it.
"Why is the door locked?" Twilight demanded as she pounded on the door, hoping that anyone could hear her.
"I'd be a terrible foalsitter if I let you leave," Fluttershy said innocently. "Now come on, I brought plenty of toys for you to play with. You need to relax and have some fun."
Fluttershy reached into her saddlebags which she had left on the floor of the library. She pulled out some blocks, a doll, some coloring books, and a rattle and placed them all on the floor in front of Twilight. Then she gave a look as if she was asking Twilight to choose. Twilight went back to banging on the door.
"Pwease Twili, play with me," Fluttershy said in a babyish voice as she held the doll up to Twilight. "I'm lotsa fun and you work too much. Pwease, your good friend Fluttershy is worried about you. If you don't relax it could do bad things for your health."
"Ugh, fine!" Twilight shouted. "If I humor you in your delusions then will you please let me go."
Fluttershy smiled and nodded, then she handed the doll to Twilight. Twilight and Fluttershy began to play with the toys for quite a while. Twilight actually forgot herself and allowed herself to actually start having fun. Fluttershy even noticed that she cracked a smile. That smile vanished when Twilight realized that the milk and oatmeal were on their way out.
"Um... Fluttershy, I have to use the bathroom," Twilight said meekly.
"Oh, okay then. You just keep playing, I'll go get a fresh diaper," Fluttershy said, getting up and heading towards her saddlebags.
"Oh no, I am not using my diaper. Get me out of this right now," Twilight said, trying to push it off. It was no good.
"Don't worry Twilight. As soon as you do, I'll change you. Just keep having some fun until then, you were so happy."
"That's because I forgot how crazy this all is—how crazy you are!"
"Then just forget again and please use your diaper."
"Sorry Fluttershy, a girl has limits," Twilight said, even more frantically trying to get the diaper off.
She was getting more and more desperate. Fluttershy didn't even look towards her. She was just searching through the saddlebags. The longer it took the more Twilight realized how hopeless the situation was. She took a deep breath and let loose. Seconds later she began to wail like the foal she felt herself to be.
"It's okay," Fluttershy said, placing a hoof on the back of Twilight's head. "I'm here to take care of you, you don't have to worry about anything."
Fluttershy changed Twilight all while humming a sweet little lullabye. When the deed was done, Fluttershy put a pacifier in Twilight's mouth. Twilight looked into Fluttershy's happy eyes. Then she realized that Fluttershy meant what she said, that Twilight had to take it easy once in awhile. For the past couple of hours she felt better than she had felt in quite sometime. She hated to say it, but she felt like a foal again.
"Come on, you're cranky," Fluttershy said. "I think that you need a nap."
Twilight no longer wanted to fight it. Fluttershy was right, she was looking out for all of Twilight's need. Twilight didn't have to worry. Fluttershy led Twilight back up to her bedroom and tucked her into bed and placed the doll in Twilight's hooves. Then Twilight contentedly went back to sleep.
Twilight flew her eyes open in panic. She tried to spit out her pacifier, only there was no pacifier. She tried to toss the doll off of the bed, but there was no doll. She looked to see that she wasn't even wearing a diaper. Twilight wiped the sweat off of her brow. Wow, that was one crazy dream. She knew that Fluttershy was the motherly type, but her actually doing something like that. That would just be crazy.
Speaking of Fluttershy, she was in Twilight's library. She had her saddlebags on and looked like she was ready to leave.
"Oh good you're awake," Fluttershy said with a smile. "I'll be able to foalsit next Tuesday. In the meantime, don't push yourself so hard. You make us all worry about you."
Twilight whited out.
