Chapter 1: The Train Ride

View Online

It had been a couple weeks since Octavia's life had been forever changed. She still want entirely sure what it was, but that mistake that she made by leaving her shipment of diapers outside ended up being the best thing that happened to her and opened up so many more opportunities for her. At first she was concerned that it would negatively affect her music career, but so far it's been the opposite. Word had gotten out that the Princess had invited her to play at her sister's birthday bash, and ponies started sending her letter after letter wanting hey for their events. She even got invited to perform at a convention that was specifically for ponies that liked being little. Her and Vinyl both agreed to that one, and thought that would be the perfect time to debut they colab pieces that they had been working on.

"I still can't believe all the attention were getting now Tavi! You thought we were overbooked before!" Vinyl started.

"I know right!? Silly Filly is even giving us an endorsement! They are sending us three packs of their new, princess, high society, and Crystal diapers once a month for the next year! For free! That's enough diapers that we could wear them all day every day and still have plenty left over!" Octavia said.

"You sound way more excited about that than I would expect from you, but you are about to get your wish, for the next week anyway. I'm sure you're probably going to be diapered right alongside Luna wherever she goes.”

“Probably, but it might not be that bad. I’ll have to see how it goes, but like you said, I probably won’t have much of a choice in it all. That being said… I should probably be getting ready to go. The train for Canterlot is supposed to be here within the hour and I don’t wanna miss it. I don’t wanna give Princess Celestia a reason to be upset with me, and I don’t wanna ruin Luna’s night either if she’s been looking forward to this. No doubt that Celestia has informed her of what was coming,” Octavia said to Vinyl.

“Yeah, and as embarrassed as Luna probably was about having her secret revealed to a bunch of flower ponies, I bet she’s super excited to have someone… I would say her age to play with, but let’s be honest here. That mare is over a thousand years old. Ain’t none of us close.”

“A thousand years old, and doesn’t look a day past twenty-five. I can only hope that we age that well when we’re fifty,” Octavia chuckled.

“Well, it already looks like a certain musician is already aging backwards so, that’s a perfect start to staying young forever,” Vinyl said, sticking her tongue out.

Octavia just rolled her eyes a bit. "I don't think it quite works like that, but it would be nice if it did. And who knows, if Luna likes playing with me enough she might give us a gift."

"And just what kind of gift are you hoping for… one of her stinky diapers?" Vinyl said with a laugh.

"Very funny Vinny," Octavia retorted. "Alright so… for a week long padded play date how many packs should I bring? If it's anything like when I was at Rose's, I went through four then. So four packs should do…" Octavia said to herself.

"Probably, and I'm sure that if you run out Luna would be willing to share. You'd look pretty sexy in a sagging royal blue diaper if I do say so myself," Vinyl said, watching Octavia lay down on the bed. "What are you doing…?"

"I'm putting a diaper on so I can get ready to leave. What's it look like?" Octavia replied.

"You're going to wear a diaper… on the train and walking through Ponyville…? Wow, Daisy must have had more of an effect on you than I thought," Vinyl laughed.

"Oh please. It's not like everypony doesn't know but now. Between what happened with Eiffel and the fact that I very obviously left diapers out on that shipment, and haven't really bothered with discreet shipping since, everypony and their mom knows that I wear them at this point. Besides, have you seen the bathrooms on the trains? Sorry, I'd rather fill my diaper than sit on one of those seats," Octavia said.

"That's a very fair point… I know in my drunken stupors I've destroyed a train bathroom on multiple occasions…" Vinyl commented.

"Exactly…" Octavia said flatly. "And no pony wants to go in there after that. Besides, I need to get used to being in them for a while anyway," she added, powdering herself before pulling one of the Crystal Pink Silly Fillies up over her waist and taping it shut. She stood up and smiled as she looked in the mirror. "These are pretty cute. And comfy too! I like 'em."

"Well, I'm sure you're gonna give it a good test soon. That said, you should probably get going. I need to get my turntables and stuff packed up for my own gig in Manehattan. They wanted me to headline a dance party out there, but it's nothing like you getting to perform at Luna's birthday. That said, between all those diapers, you sure you're gonna have room for your cello?" Vinyl snickered.

"I'll make it work," Octavia said, laying the cello across her back, making her look like a Pegasus with hard wings. It made it tricky to fit through the door, but Octavia made it out and then smiled as she gave Vinyl a hug. "See you in a week love," she said, getting a likewise from Vinyl as she departed for the station.

She’d made it a few blocks before she got stopped by another familiar face that was just leaving her house as well. "Hey Tavi! Heading to the station?" She heard the mint green unicorn ask.

"Good morning Lyra. Yeah. The train for Canterlot is supposed to be here in just under an hour and I don't wanna miss it. The next one wouldn't get me there until after the celebration," Octavia started before noticing that Lyra wasn't alone. Standing next to her was an icy blue mare with a patch of blue on her flank, and to crystals with a cutie mark in a mound of white. She recognized her as the owner of that frozen treat parlor in town. She made some of the best ice cream Octavia had ever eaten! She also noticed some else about the mare. It appeared Octavia wasn't the only one out in public with their padding around their waist. "Also hello Miss Storm. Hopefully all is well today?"

"Everything is going great! I was just making a couple deliveries before I let my help take over. Lyra and myself are also going to Canterlot for Luna's birthday," Ice Storm replied.

"Yeah. Hey! With all three of us going to Canterlot, we should see if they will let us rent a whole car. Especially since it looks like I have to be a momma of two now," Lyra chuckled a bit, patting Octavia's padded rump with her magic. "I can't believe you've become so open about this. Whatever Rose and Daisy did to make you so happy, be sure to tell them thanks."

"I will when I see them again for longer than just in passing," Octavia smiled. "Though I am a bit shocked to see Icy in a diaper. I would have never pegged her as the type. Though most wouldn't peg me as the type either. So I suppose that kinda makes sense."

Ice Storm would blush a bit. "I um… I'm actually almost completely urinary incontinent. I actually wear them all the time. I just have an illusion spell on them most of the time to hide them. It wasn't until I saw everypony reacting to you and helping you like they did that I decided to stop hiding who I am," Ice replied.

"I see. Well, I'm glad that in a way, I was able to help you out. I'm sorry that you have to deal with that though. Is it something that might be fixable?" Octavia asked.

Ice Storm shook her head. "If anything it will only ever get worse. I have some internal damage from an incident when I was a filly, and my magic apparently also plays a part in it. But, I don't let it affect who I am. Being all sad and mopey won't fix it, and there's better ways I can spend my time. Like going to see my best friend for her birthday!" Ice said.

"That is a plus. Though we should probably talk and walk at the same time. Otherwise the there of use could get swept away by the conversation and miss the train," Octavia said.

"Look at you! Such a responsible little filly!" Lyra said with a smile, getting a deadpan look from Tavi. "Oh come on. I'm your friend. I'm allowed to make fun of you. Plus the faces you make are even cuter now. You're right though," Lyra added, heading in the direction of the station. "We should probably keep moving."

The conversation continued as they walked. Ice Storm talked a little bit about how her stores were doing now. Apparently she had opened a couple other stores, and she and her mother had rekindled their relationship. Octavia didn't know much about the personal issues of the icy mare, but she did know that she rarely talked about her family, and when she had before it always held a negative overtone. Even then most of that was hearsay. She was happy to hear that she was doing well now though, and that most of the issues that had plagued her have passed.

The Ponyville station was a little bit busy. The train to Trottingham had just arrived not too long ago, and the group of ponies could see the train from Manehatten to Canterlot was approaching. Octavia had gotten a couple looks in her direction, as did Ice Storm, for their choice in fashion, but no pony said anything or really bothered them. Though they did get a ‘those are cute’ from a few mares as they walked by. Octavia could feel her ears burning from those but she was happy to see that most were accepting. This was Ponyville though, and not any place like Canterlot, or Trottingham, or some of the more uppity places in Equestria that like to think they are better than others because of where they live.

Octavia never really understood that herself. Sure there was some merit to where a pony lived, as it often said something about the ponies who lived there, but it wasn’t worth that much where a pony could literally turn into a complete plothole over. What a pony did was more important than where they lived!

“Train for Canterlot! Line two! Please proceed to the loading platform while current passengers depart. Boarding begins in ten minutes,” the group heard the station director speak.

“Guess that means that we should make our way over?” Lyra said as the mares made their way to the designated platform. It wasn’t too long afterwards that they were let onto the train and the conductor directed them towards the back of the train.

“The private cars are in the back ladies, if you want one. It will be an additional two hundred bits a pony though,” The Conductor said to them.

“I think that would be a wonderful idea! It’s a long train ride there, so that will give the two of us some play time! If you were wanting to, Octavia…” Ice said. “I can even pay for the car myself!”

Octavia was a bit shocked at Ice’s enthusiasm, but she could only smile. “That won’t be necessary, Icy. I am perfectly capable of covering my portion of the fee. Not sure about the grown up though,” Octavia laughed.

“I’ll have you know I am just as successful as you are, and Bon Bon’s candies are selling higher than ever thank you very much!” Lyra scoffed in faux distaste. She then hoofed the conductor her portion of the bits, turning to Ice Storm herself. “The nerve of some ponies,” she added, making Icy laugh.

“Come on you two, before we give others a reason to make a fuss by holding up the line,” Ice replied before also paying the pony and heading to the back of the train. No sooner did she reach the door a hiss could be heard from her rear as her diaper started to sag and some of the unicorns on it started to fade away. Paying almost no mind to it at all, Ice Storm opened up the door and made her way into the car and then stopped.

The inside of the train car wasn’t anything overly special. There was a bit of open space, a couple beds, and a table with some chairs bolted next to it. It was about what you would expect to see when you were staying in a hotel. All and all, it was a pretty nice car. It had better have been though, for the cost. Her attention was quickly grabbed however, when she felt a snout press directly into her diaper and she felt it squish against some very sensitive spots. “Oh My,” she said, stepping forward a bit before looking at Octavia who was very clearly rubbing her snout as if she had just walked into a post. Ice couldn’t help but chuckle a bit. “My my Tavi, if you wanna get under my tail at least buy me dinner first!” she giggled.

“It was an accident! I promise! Even if it did feel and smell really nice…” Octavia admitted with a blush. She was so busy trying to make sure she didn’t wap anypony else with her cello or her saddle bags that she didn’t even see Ice stop and plowed snout first into her padded, now soggy rump just as she had taken a breath. She wasn’t sure what it was, but the scent immediately triggered something in her and hearing Icy’s remark only made it worse.

Ice paused for a second and her eyes widened a bit when she heard Octavia say that. She didn’t think that she had meant to say that last part out loud, but now that she had it was Ice Storm’s turn to blush. She heard Lyra from behind clear her throat as she too was trying to get into the car. When she did, Icy closed the door with her magic before smiling. “Well, I guess it’s a good thing that we got a private car… Are you okay Octavia?”

“Y… Yes… I wasn’t expecting you to stop when you did and I didn’t want to hit anypony with my cello, and I guess I wasn’t paying attention. Plus it didn’t really hurt, your backside was um… quite soft, even with the padding…” Octavia said, her cheeks on fire at the moment.

“Oh yeah! Icy and Tavi, rollin’ in the Hay! Kiss-ing Moan-ing Neigh Neigh Neigh!” Lyra sang mockingly with a laugh.

“Lyra,” The two other mares said simultaneously.

“What? I’m just teasing,” Lyra responded.

The other two mares just rolled their eyes a bit before they turned to one another. “So what should we do first? I didn’t think to bring much in the way of toys. I usually play with whatever Luna has when we do these.” Ice admitted.

“Do what… exactly?” Octavia asked.

“Oh! Once every couple of months Princess Luna and I have a playdate for a week or so, and with this being her birthday it was a perfect gift for her! Not to mention I could be myself and be as little as I wanted around her and she wouldn’t think any differently of me for it! It’s truly a magical time!”

“No way! That’s exactly what I’m going to be doing! Celestia came to me after I got in a fight with a colt for beating up on a little mare and destroying her little stuff. I’ll be performing tonight at the bash just like this, and then I’m also going to be doing a playdate with Luna!”

“Yay!! That means we’ll get lots of playtime together! Oh, forewarning though, The princess is very touchy, and likes to fondle, tickle, and get very intimate…” Ice said with a blush, wiggling her flank just thinking about it.

At this point, Octavia was starting to feel a slight pressure in her tummy herself. It wasn’t going to be too long before her diaper matched Icy’s, but that still didn’t answer the question of what they were going to do now.

“Well, I’m sure that my two little fillies are hungry, so why don’t we get you two fed, and then from there, we can play with our imaginations. The train is going to be moving through a lot of areas so we can find a lot to create and think about. “There’s also some travel games that we can play too!” Lyra commented.

“Actually, some lunch does pretty sound good right now. What is the train serving today? I imagine a salad per norm?” Octavia asked.

“I was thinking of something a little bit more appropriate for fillies. I have a couple bottles that I packed for the trip, or if you would prefer, I know a spell that will let you two drink straight from the source,” Lyra explained.

“Why… would you know a spell like that?” Octavia asked.

“Because I generally play a mommy role in caretaking, and one of Bon Bon’s favorite fetishes is breastfeeding, so letting her do it from me is the best of both worlds for her,” Lyra explained.

“I see…” Ice Storm started. “Well, it wouldn’t be the first time I’ve done something like that myself. Luna loves being on both sides of that. I’ve nursed her and she’s cast the spell on me and she’s nursed from me before. It honestly feels kind of weird, but in a good way,” Ice said.

“I don’t know…” Octavia said. “A few weeks ago at Rose’s was the most that I’ve ever done at once and I never tried that. It wasn’t something that Daisy or Rose ever suggested, so I never thought to try it.”

“Do you want to now? I won’t be offended if you say no,” Lyra said.

“I suppose if Icy’s going to do it I’ll give it a try. Plus you can’t ever say you don’t like something if you don’t try it,” she said blushing.

Ice Storm very suddenly felt like she was put in a spotlight. Being told that it was her decision made her a little bit uneasy. On one hoof, she was perfectly okay with it. On another hoof though, she didn’t want to agree to it, and Octavia try something that she didn’t like, and on a third hoof, she wasn’t sure if milk alone was going to be enough for them. She was quite hungry after all. “I suppose we could start with that, and if we’re still hungry or if Octavia doesn’t feel comfortable with it, we can get a salad,” Ice said, watching Lyra lay on the bed before there was a flash of magic.

After watching the minty unicorn lay on her side, and cast a spell, the other two mares began to close in. As they got closer, they could see a couple white droplets starting to form on the tips of Lyra’s teats between her hind legs. Octavia was blushing the entire way. This by far wouldn’t be the first time sucking on the teats of another mare. Vinny loved having them bitten. This would however be the first time that she would have something come out of them in the process.

She was a bit surprised by the lack of hesitation that Icy had in the manner. Ice Storm upon seeing the spell and simply moved up and latched onto one of Lyra’s teats and began suckling, getting a loud moan from Lyra herself. Feeling her cheeks burn even brighter, Octavia scooted onto the bed lying opposite of Ice Storm so that she could reach the second teat before leaning it and taking it into her mouth.

The first thing that she noticed was the warmth, then the cream, and then the sweet flavor. It all felt incredibly taboo for a grown mare to be like this, but she was long past that point. After all, she and the other mare next to her were both already dressed like foals, and Icy already helped play the part. Doing a little bit more wasn’t going to create an issue in that regard. She would continue to suckle from Lyra, hearing the icy colored mare next to her do the same.

The feeling of her head right above hers to where she could hear, and feel the mare swallowing down the milk just like her was making her wiggle just a bit. The statements earlier in combination with the sensory stimulations now were sending shivers down her spine and she felt a familiar warmth in her lower region. Other than Vinyl there weren’t many other mares that could get this kind of reaction out of her. Her eyes went wide on their own and she paused for a moment when she felt another sensation that she wasn’t expecting. She felt herself wink inside of her padding, and her clit came in contact with the fluff of the padding, sending sparks down her spine.

Almost as if she had sensed something was amiss, she found herself staring into the aquamarine eyes of the blue unicorn next to her and then was met with a soft smile and then a lick across the side of her cheek. This elected another gasp from her as she felt herself wink once again, and then again before she felt another pressure rubbing against her. She looked down and she watched Lyra pressing one of forehooves on her diaper between her legs. With a soft moan she pulled back, making sure that she swallowed before speaking.

“L...Lyra?” she said, gasping as she felt her rub a bit more.

“Shhhh, just let yourself have some fun. Besides, I can smell you through your padding,” she said before hearing a hiss and feeling Octavia’s diaper warm on her hoof. “Oh my, such a naughty filly. Wetting herself while momma is helping her make stickies,” she said, rubbing just a little bit harder.

It was about that time when Ocatavia heard Lyra gasp herself and then looked over at the icy mare that was next to her, suckling just a bit lower than where Lyra’s teats were. She blushed a bit and let out a soft moan. Here she was in between two mares, one was rubbing her through her now wet diaper, and the other was buried muzzle deep into Lyra’s snatch. She felt her eyes slowly starting to drift down to the padding of the other mare, thinking about the feeling and the smell of when she had pushed into it by accident entering the room.

Ice Storm caught her looking out of the corner of her eye, and with a smile herself began to sway her hips a bit. She would pull back from Lyra for a moment, her face covered in a clear fluid that left little doubt to her activities. “Don’t be shy, go ahead. I don’t bite, unless you want me to,” Ice replied before pressing her snout back into Lyra.

Octavia herself didn’t need to be told a second time. Between the sounds of Icy’s licking, Lyra’s moaning, and the feeling of Lyra’s hoof squishing her diaper against her winking marehood, Octavia could feel herself going into overdrive. She adjusted herself down on the bet where she positioned her snout right on the front of the yellowed diaper of the blue unicorn and took a deep sniff. The scent made her squirt just a bit inside her own diaper and she let her tongue come out as she licked the front of the diaper.

She then moved up and grabbed the tapes with her teeth and started undoing them. The ripping sound that they made sent even more shivers down her spine, and with the pull of the second tape, she pulled the front of Icy’s diaper down, revealing her glistening marehood. The scent of pee was overpowering, but so was the scent of Icy’s arousal. Octavia couldn’t hold herself back anymore and she leaned in to give the supple lips a hearty lick, tasting the bitterness of her urine and the sweetness of her arousal. The flavor combination was not anywhere near as bad as she was expecting it to be. She watched Icy’s clit wink towards her, and almost on instinct she grabbed it with her teeth and gave it a gentle tug. She knew that Vinyl liked it when she did that, and judging by the whinny that she got in response from Ice Storm it seemed like she did as well.

After a few more tugs on her clit, Octavia moved up a little bit higher and let her tongue start working into the icy blue folds of the mare that was in front of her. Once she got past the pee flavor, she noticed that she had a hint of vanilla to her flavor as well as a small bit of… strawberry? That seemed odd, but Octavia didn’t question it. She felt Lyra getting firmer with her hooves and her ministrations on her as well. She felt her hoof digging into her padding and prodding slightly inside her slit. She then felt that hoof snake under the padding through the leg guards and felt it directly against her labia, making her gasp and pull away from Icy a bit.

“Oh, it seems my little Tavi likes that. Let’s see what other things little Tavi might want to be naughty with,” Lyra smiled, pushing Octavia’s diaper to the side and leaned in for a lick on her clit, before using her magic to spread her wide open. “Oh my this is quite a sight. Vinyl is a very lucky mare,” she added before letting her magic trace down the right side of her inner walls and then back up like a feather would trace down a leg.

That tingling tickle set Octavia’s loins on fire almost instantly, and she could feel her inner muscle try to clench themselves closed as they were spread open by Lyra’s magic. She felt a bit out of place here as the only earth pony getting a thorough work over. She positioned her hooves where she could get a similar effect with Icy’s swollen and tasty vulva, pulling it open with her hooves and looking inside. She smiled and took a deep sniff of the mare’s inner core to get the most of her sweet smelling scent before she began searching for that spongy spot that was just inside most mares. The pinnical g-spot. She continued to assault the icy colored mare until she heard a loud squeak and then felt her legs tense up around her head. Bingo, she thought to herself going in for the kill. She started tolick, and then stepping up her game she started nibbling and lightly biting the spongy spot. Never hard enough to cause pain, but enough to make it known what she was doing, and no sooner did she get the second bite in she felt a gush coming from the depths of Ice Storm and she was soon plastered with her marecum.

She had very little time to relish that though, as Lyra started picking up her style as well, her magic moving deeper and deeper before she felt that tickle expand and she felt something hard insert itself inside of her. When she looked down to see what it was, she saw that Lyra was horn deep inside of her, and she could feel her magic pressing into places that she didn’t even know that she had! Or rather, places that she previously thought were unreachable. She found herself unable to do anything other that focus on the feelings that were inside her body right now, and she saw Ice Storm using a similar tactic with Lyra. She figured that was probably where Lyra got the idea from and she notices that every time Icy was thrusting into Lyra, was when Lrya was pulling out of her.

The moans that were escaping Octavia were growing louder by the moment, and the fact that her own diaper had never actually been removed was further driving her insane. The thrusts were starting to get faster between the other two mares, and the symphonic melody of their love making was starting to reach its crescendo. She could also feel Lyra’s horn starting to heat up a bit inside of her, and she could see that Lyra’s face, as well as Icy’s for that matter, were both covered in vaginal fluids, just as she was. She let out a throaty moan as she started to lean back in and give Icy’s clit a couple more licks and she saw the mare seize up before seeing a small glown inside of Lyra’s stomach, and then feeling something quite hot start shooting out of Lyra’s horn into her as well.

Octavia started clenching up on what covers were on the bed as she felt the heat building up inside of her before feeling her inner walls clench around Lyra’s horn. The shock and pleasure that was coursing through her system made her open her mouth, but she couldn’t make a sound. At least, not for a few moments until her muscles relaxed and then let out a moan that she was sure rattled the windows of the car. She was fairly certain that everypony in the car in front of them heard that.

“Dayum girl. I think they mighta heard you in the locomotive with that one,” Lyra said pulling her horn out of Octavia’s dripping snatch, watching a glowy golden liquid flowing from deep inside her. “Heh, good thing that you’re not in season. That could have ended badly,” Lyra laughed.

“Same with you,” Ice Storm said, pulling her horn out herself. Definitely one of the better romps I’ve had recently. No pony’s ever made me cum that quickly before,” Ice Storm said with a smile. “Not… that I make it a habit of sleeping around… I don’t want to send the wrong kind of message. It’s just, outside of the princess I haven’t really had a good experience in bed recently. In fact, most of the time they end early because of my issues popping up at the worst possible time. I always warn them about it being a possibility, and they always say it’s fine. But it never is. It will happen, and then the mood is soured, and they leave, and I usually end up crying the rest of the night because of it.” Ice admitted, getting a look of shock from both of the mares next to her.

“Don’t let those other ponies get you in the dumps. I mean sure, I didn’t really want to get peed on myself, but if it would have happened, I would have understood. I mean you and I both are wearing diapers for Celestia’s sake!” Octavia said. “And used ones at that! And ponies getting mad at you for having a legitimate issue…” Octavia added, having to pause and take a deep breath. “Sorry, that was kind of reminding me of the Eiffel situation with Lemon Hearts. I was actually starting to get really upset that ponies will judge you for something that you can’t control. That’s not even remotely fair!”

“Yeah! You are an amazing pony Icy, and you have hooves down the best frozen anything I’ve ever had! The next time a pony upsets you or gets mad with you, they are gonna have to deal with us. No way we’re gonna let anypony be mean to you. I’m sure Tavi here still has a few bucks in those hindquarters of hers.” Lyra replied

“AMong other things right now, but yeah, I got plenty where that came from. That being said, we should probably get myself changed, and should probably get you back into a diaper yourself before we have a larger mess… to clean… up…” Octavia replied, looking to the bed. “Hopefully somepony knows how to dry those off and remove the smell from them?”

“I’m sure they have another set around here somewhere,” Icy said. “After all, it is a private car. They have to expect that something like this is going to happen at some point. Maybe not with diapers involved, but a threesome between mares? Come on, that’s probably like every other Tuesday on trains like this,” Icy concluded, laying on the floor and started levitating one of her diapers out.

Octavia watched as Lyra took the padding into her magic and smiled. “Ah Ah! Little fillies aren’t allowed to change themselves. Let momma get this on for you,” she said, wiping down Icy’s filly parts, making sure all of the evidence of their fun moments ago had been erased before for taping up one of the Royal Darks that she had. “Alright, that’s Icy taken care of. Why don’t you come over here and lay down,” Lyra said to Octavia.

Octavia did as instructed. She felt Lyra’s hooves on her padded front again and smiled. “You know, you are only wet, and barely so at that. Are you sure that you want a change right now?” she heard Lyra ask her. Almost as if in response to the question, her nose scrunched up and she pushed hard, her tail flagging and a large bulge appearing in the seat. “Well, I guess that answers that question then,” Lyra giggled before undoing Octavia’s diaper and getting her cleaned up. This next week was definitely going to be quite interesting.

Chapter 2: The Bash (Arrival)

The rest of the train ride to Canterlot went rather uneventful. The three ponies in the private care taking a shower and getting cleaned up so that they wouldn’t wreak of sex when they got out of the car and made their way through the streets. They also opened the windows in the car so that they wouldn’t assault the other guests in the train with the smell either, even though as loud as they were, Octavia, Ice Storm and Lyra were all fairly certain that the entire train knew what they were doing. Not to mention, everypony generally knew what the privacy cars were used for.

“So, where are the two of you staying while in Canterlot?” Octavia started. “I know that I’m staying in the castle with Luna, and given what Ice Storm has told me, I imagine she’s doing the same. What about you Lyra?”

“Oh, I’m going to be staying with Minuette and spend some quality girl time with her for a couple nights. Probably going to go a bit like it ended up going on the train if I’m being honest,” Lyra added as they got off the train, and the three mares split up, Lyra heading towards Minuette’s. Ice walked with Octavia though since they were going to the same place.

“So, I do have a question that I’ve been meaning to ask for a while now. Ever since I saw you back at the train…” Ice Storm started.

“How long have I been a little?” Octavia asked, following Ice Storm’s eyes.

The icy blue unicorn would nod. “I don’t mean to pry, I’m just curious. I don’t run into very many ponies that are as open about it as you seem to be. Usually I’m the only pony walking around in a diaper all the time, albeit not by choice…”

“Na, it’s fine. I was expecting a question like this at some point,” Octavia said, noting the looks that she was starting to get from some of the Canterlot Nobility. She could see that there was a mixed assortment from the expressions that she was getting. Most seemed to be confused as to what they thought they were seeing, and she could have sworn she saw a few eyes light up as she walked past them. “I’ll admit I was expecting it a bit later, but it was expected. I only made the decision to wear like this yesterday cause I would be wearing them all the time during the playdate with Luna, so I wanted to get used to the feeling of being diapered all the time.”

“Oh, so you weren’t always a little then?”

“Well, depending on how you look at it, I was always a little. I just didn’t realize it until a few years ago when stress started building and building. Vinyl suggested trying them because that's what she used to deal with stress and depression. So I listened to her and gave it a shot. After the first time, I found that I loved how comfortable they were. I didn’t build up the nerve to actually use one until a few months after that, and the first time I used one to the fullest extent was a few weeks ago when I had the playdate with the flower sisters,” Octavia said.

“That sounds like fun! I never really had a choice in the matter. Thanks to what my father did to me when I was a filly, I don’t have full control over my bladder,” she said, blushing a bit, as if it was on cue, a hissing sound could be heard from behind her as they walked. “C...Case and point… I am technically trained, but I’m already in a diaper so I don’t bother trying to hold back either,” Ice said.

“I can tell, if the train ride was any indication,” Octavia smiled, bumping her flank into Icy’s.

It was at this point they were interrupted by a white unicorn with a frosty mane and tail. “Hey Icy! Who’s your… Wait… around you Octavia Melody? The famous cellist?” she asked, looking at the two of them with a fair amount of excitement now. “Icy you never told me you were friends with a legend! By the way, you go girl. Way to stand up to that prick. I can guarantee that he got what was coming to him.”

“Wait, you know about that?” Octavia asked.

“Yup! I was part of the jury that convicted him. We heard the entire case. Though if you ask me, I think the trial was only so Celestia could say that she followed the process. I’ve never seen her that angry before. You would have thought that Eiffle would have killed somepony the way she threw the book at him.” Octavia heard Snow Star say.

“I think I can get a bit of an idea why, based on what she told me about her sister. I’m glad that he’s being punished for his crimes. Whatever he’s got coming to him, he deserves for what he did to Lemon Hearts,” Octavia replied.

“I would say so as well. That being said, you ran over in a bit of a rush Snow. Is everything okay?” Ice asked.

“Mostly, We’ve been having some issues with the locks on the doors recently. I know that you’re probably in town for Luna’s Birthday bash, but I was hoping that you could come look at it and see what we needed to do to fix it. It’s your store after all so we didn’t want to make any decisions without you present,” Snow explained.

“Absolutely. Is it still locking now?” Ice asked, getting a nod from Snow Star. “Alright then. I’m going to be staying at the castle a bit spending time with Luna and making sure she has the time of her life this week. I will be over there in a couple days once we’re done, or maybe sooner if we decide to go out for a bit. I will take a look at it then. IF the lock goes out completely, send a messenger to the castle and I will take a break from play time to make sure that it gets dealt with,” Ice instructed.

“Alright Icy. You two have fun! Oh, and by the way, Octavia… you look absolutely adorable in that print,” she smiled, leaning in. “I think the Classic would look better though,” she smiled before bouncing away with a smile.

Octavia raised an eyebrow at that comment and watched as the mare bounced away happily before continuing towards the palace. “What the hay? Just how many ponies out here are littles in hiding?” Octavia said in a surprised tone. “Seriously, just about everypony that’s approached me the last few weeks have opened up to me about what they like and feel.”

“Eh, you get used to it. I did. There are a lot of ponies out there that I’ve found are looking for littles, or littles looking for caretakers, or ponies just looking for a padded roll in the hay. I’ve been to quite a few of those. Quite fun.”

“I can imagine,” Octavia said, flatly.

“Hey, I know not everypony is that open about things. I was shocked with how open you were being in the car if I’m being honest. I just never pegged you as a pony that would be intimately active outside of maybe a very select few.”

“Well, who knows. Maybe you’re a part of that very select few,” Octavia said with a smirk. The statement made Ice Storm pause for a moment and shake her head. Octavia noticed this and giggled immediately. “I’m kidding…. kinda sorta. I’ve only ever really seen you in passing before and a few times at your stores. Though after that train ride I wouldn’t be opposed to getting to know you a bit more. It sounds like I have a perfect opportunity to do that this week,” Octavia said, laughing.

“I suppose that would make two of us then. I’ve already learned about you that I wasn’t expecting. So far I’m liking what I’m finding out. I don’t know why, but I was always under the impression that you were always so uptight about everything. I imagine that you had to be though. Being a performer of your caliber has to take a lot of work and practice. I do have another question though. Can you really just look at a piece of music and know instantly how to play it?” Ice Storm asked as they were walking up the steps to the palace doors.

“You’re talking about sight-reading, and it’s a technique that is used quite frequently in orchestra. Being as well-sought-after as I am, I have a little bit of an advantage in that aspect. I’ve always been a decent sight-reader, and there are a lot of times that I will go to different venues and be asked to perform the same songs from another. They have no correlation with each other, but just happens to be a lucky coincidence for the most part. Having already played the piece a couple times, I know where the important parts are and where I can embellish a bit with the vocalization,” Octavia replied.

“That’s so cool! I wish I could do something like that! It would be a great hobby outside of work. Well, other than being a little all the time. Believe it or not, it does get a bit boring after a while. There’s only so many ways you can arrange blocks or scenes that you can think of with the same rooms,” Ice explained.

“You know… I can see that,” Octavia replied again. “It’s definitely a lot more fun when you have playmates to play with. Actually thinking about it, that’s one thing that being a little and being in an orchestra have in common. We are all parts of a whole. The more of us there are… except for piccolo players… the better we usually sound.”

“Aww, what’s wrong with piccolo players? I like the piccolo. It’s such a cute instrument!” Ice retorted.

“Oh the piccolo is a great sounding instrument… wheeen there’s only one… Otherwise… Well… There’s a reason that this joke exists…” Octavia started.

“What joke?”

“How do you get two piccolos in tune with each other?”

“I don’t know… how?” Icy asked.

“You shoot one,” Octavia finished.

“I don’t get it…”

“Piccolos are notoriously hard to get more than one player playing on the same wave-length of sound,” Octavia started, her eyes lighting up a bit. “Here, I can show you what I mean.” she said, setting her case down and pulling out her cello. “This is a ‘d’,” she said, playing on the open string second from her left. “I can play this same note, here on the g-string,” she added, moving her hoof up to the specific spot. She then played both strings with the notes perfectly in tune. “That is what a unison should sound like. The problem with two piccolo players…” she continued, moving her hoof a fraction down the neck, making the ‘D’ on the g-string sound an eighth of a step higher than the open string ‘D’ and played both at the same time, making a sound that could only be described as a train wreck. The look on Icy’s face showed that she understood exactly what she was saying.

“Got it, more than one piccolo is bad,” Ice said, clearing out her ear, much like the guard approaching them was.

“Greetings Octavia… The princess was expecting you. Also good afternoon Icy. I’m presuming you’re here for the birthday bash as well?”

“Yup! and to spend time with Luna afterwards.” Ice replied.

“I kinda figured. Though Miss Octavia… I must ask… next time keep the musical lessons inside the rooms. Especially if the lessons involve things that can make my ears bleed,” the guard told them.

“Of course. My apologies. It was less of a lesson and more of a demonstration, but I get your point. That being said, I do need to know when the rehearsal for tonight is going to be. I’m presuming that I’m not the only performer invited. I presume Ebony Keys, Bass Clef, and Harmony are all going to be here as well? They are the usualls that the princess calls for things like this.”

“Indeed! Rehearsals will be at three like normal and then the Bash begins around seven. And don’t worry about everything else,” The guard said pointing to her rear. The other three already know of the situation. So you shouldn’t be receiving any rabble from them. Though I’ll admit… I wasn’t expecting to see you in a diaper before the rehearsals,” the guard admitted.

“Eh, I wanted to get in the spirit of things since I’m going to be in them for the duration of my stay here. So I wanted to get used to it and the attention that it would garner. Honestly it hasn’t been that big of a deal, and has actually been kinda fun and relaxing,” Octavia admitted.

“I see. Well, as long as you're comfortable, and the citizens don’t make too much of a fuss you should be fine. I don’t see them doing that either considering they are already used to ponies like Icy and the princess roaming around like that already.”

“Hey! It’s not like we can help it, you know!”

“Woah Woah! Easy there Icy. You of all ponies should know that I didn’t mean it like that. I’m just merely stating that ponies are used to the sight. I honestly don’t care one way or another. I just keep the peace. And besides, at least the ones you three wear are cute and pleasing to look at, even if yours is sagging a little bit Icy,” the guard replied.

“Thanks… Anyway, Our room?” Icy said.

“Right, Well, Miss Melody here will be staying with the princess for the duration of her stay. Am I to presume that will be okay with you as well? Of course we will have to confirm with Luna that she is okay with having more company, but given how close you two are, I’m sure she’ll agree. We’ll start heading that way. If you both will follow me,” the guard said before leading them through the halls, admiring the sound of the crinkles walking behind him.

The two mares nodded and followed him down, Octavia starting to cross her legs a bit. The breakfast that they had on the train this morning was finally starting to make its presence known. She looked around the hallway and aside from the two of them and the guard, it was empty. Now would be the perfect time to let herself go, but she didn’t think she could do it while walking. She wasn’t sure if anypony could do that while walking honestly.

Icy on the other hoof just watched with a knowing smile. She wasn’t too far off from needing to do that herself. She was at least trying to wait until they got into Luna’s room so she wouldn’t stink up the hallway. She imagined that Octavia was thinking the same thing, except she was obviously a bit closer than she was in her need.

After a few more minutes they found themselves just outside the large set of double doors with a large crest of Luna’s cutie mark inlaid into the door itself. The guard started to reach up to knock on the door. “Is this really necessary!?” they heard.

“Your special gift is going to be here any minute and you need to look presentable!”

“I was perfectly presentable! I was only wet! Plus I sincerely doubt that Miss Melody is going to care if I’m wearing an outfit or not almost six hours before the bash even starts!” The three heard before the guard knocked.

“Excuse me, your majesties… But they are here,” the guard said.

“They?” they heard the two voices say in unison.

At this point Octavia couldn’t hold herself back anymore and let out a large grunt, getting a raised eyebrow from the guard before he looked back to the opening door.

There in front of them stood Princess Celestia, with Princess Luna sitting back on her bed in a Royal Dark Silly Filly’s that looked like it had been freshly applied as there was a second balled up next to her and a couple outfits next to it. Celestia’s eyes were immediately drawn to the mare that was relieving herself before she noticed the second mare with them.

“Oh! Miss Ice Storm! What a pleasant surprise! Though now that I think about it, not really a surprise, given how close of friends you and my sister are. It would be foolish to think that…”

“Icy!” The royal blue alicorn proclaimed before bull-rushing her sister out of the way to give the icy blue unicorn a big hug.

Ice Storm smiled before feeling herself grunt involuntary from how tightly she was hugged, immediately depositing her own load into the seat of her diaper, making it bulge quite a bit. “Breathing… Lulu…. I need to breathe…” she said to the princess.

“Oh, right,” Luna said with a giggle before loosening her hold.

“Well, I’m going to presume that that answers my question then,” the guard started.

“What question was that Artemis Shield?”

“Well, Miss Storm wasn’t on the list of attendees that would be staying at the castle, and I know that the playdate that you scheduled between her and Miss Melody here was a private one, so I wanted to ask before telling Miss Storm that she could stay with you princess.” Artemis said.

“While we appreciate the gesture, know that when it comes to Icy, she has nearly free reign and is always welcome with me. She doesn’t need any special permissions or procedures to stay. Just let her in,” Luna said, giving her best friend a nuzzle before turning over to the grey earth pony before her. “You must be Octavia Melody! My sister has told me all about you! Plus you’ve gained quite the reputation around Canterlot after everything that happened! I can’t be any more proud about how you stood up for your fellow ponies. You truly have a big heart, and ponies that have big hearts are the ponies I get along with the most. I have been looking forward to this ever since Celestia let it slip a week ago you were coming!”

“I appreciate it, princess.”

“Just Luna, please, or Lulu if you prefer, but no titles. We’re all friends here, and as such, titles are meaningless,” Luna responded.

Octavia nodded. “I appreciate it, Luna. Wait... I have a reputation?” Octavia asked, not sure if she liked the sound of that.

“Indeed! A strong mare that’s not afraid to stand up for what she believes in, even if it puts her own image at risk. You’ll come to find that you have many, many more fans now than you did before.” Luna said.

“Oh, I’ve already kinda figured that out. Ever since that incident, I’ve gotten non-stop letters about gigs and playdates, and playdate gigs that I’ve had to turn many of them down because they were either overlapping each other or they would have cut into what little time I have with Vinyl. I can imagine the size of my mailbox when I get home from being away for a couple weeks as it is,” Octavia admitted.

“I think we might be able to help with that. We can always have your mail sent here for a bit so that it doesn’t pile up too much.” Luna suggested.

“Na, this is supposed to be a vacapunishment, and I would rather it not be interrupted by the menial tasks of home. I just wanna take time away from everything else and give it my all to have the best time that I can as well as make sure that you’re happy, princess,” Octavia replied, getting a hug from the blue mare next to her.

“That’s the spirit! I’m sure you’re going to have a blast! Though judging from the state of your pamps it looks like you’ve already had one,” Icy said with a giggle.

“Says the mare that filled herself as soon as I so much as hugged her,” Luna teased back, making Octavia, Celestia, and Artemis giggle a bit. “Come, let’s get you changed. That way we can get Octavia ready for her rehearsal.”

“Na, that won’t be necessary yet,” Octavia said with a blush. “My rehearsal isn’t for a couple hours yet, and this is surprisingly comfortable.”

Luna smirked. “My my Tia. You didn’t tell me this one was this naughty. She’s just like Icy! I love her already!”

Octavia blushed a bit more from the praise but made her way into Luna’s room with Icy as Artemis was dismissed. “Oh! Is that one of the new Crystal Prints from Silly Filly!” Octavia heard Luna ask. “I haven’t gotten a chance to try those yet, they look absolutely adorable! And if the bulge is any indication it can hold a decent amount.” Luna inquired.

“Yup! I’ll let you try one later if you want! Our barrels are about the same size so they should fit. if anything I might actually be a bit fatter than you,” Octavia said blushing a bit.

“Na, you look about the same, now Tia on the other hoof… you can definitely tell she’s been hitting the cake!” Luna said, laughing at her sister’s expense.

“Hey! I’m not that big!”

“No, but if you get to make fun of me for my diapers then I get to make fun of you and your cake obsession!” Luna proclaimed, making Celestia roll her eyes. She also got a chuckle from Octavia and Icy. Getting a look from the two princesses.

“Sorry… sorry… It’s just… this is a side of royalty I never thought anypony would see up close. Sometimes it’s easy to forget that you two are sisters, and act exactly like how most ponies would expect two sisters to act like. It’s… kind of refreshing to know that underneath everything, you’re both still ponies at heart,” Octavia stated.

“Well of course we are! What did you expect us to be? Griffons? Chimeras? Dragons?” Luna said, poking her tongue out playfully.

“Honestly, I wasn’t sure what I was expecting. I’ve been looking forward to this ever since Celestia had mentioned it, but if I’m being honest I was also dreading it.” Octavia admitted.

“And why is that, Pray tell?” Celestia inquired.

“Because there’s so much that an average pony just doesn’t know about either of you. I have no idea what’s proper and not proper, how I’m supposed to act, what I’m supposed to,” she started before a dark blue hoof cut her off.

“You are supposed to be you. No pony can ever make you be anything else. Trust me on this one, that was a lesson I learned the hard way.” Luna said, smiling. “Now, let's come in and get everything unpacked. This is going to be even more fun now that Icy is here too! These are always more fun when there’s more than one pony. Besides,” Luna said leaning into Octavia. “When Celestia sets these up, she’s responsible for all changes. So the more there is, the more we can lay on her at once,” Luna said with a giggle.

“I’m right heeeere you knooooow,” Celestia said, rolling her eyes at the laughing fit of her sister. At least she was enjoying herself. Celestia would close the door

***

It had been a few hours and Octavia had gotten settled in, and had gotten changed right before coming down to rehearsal. This was a refined event after all, so she found herself wearing one of her High Society diapers for it. She liked the purple leg guards and the purple swirls on the cover, but wasn’t sure that the gold outline went very well with her coat. Oh well, the outline wasn’t the only thing that would be gold before long.

She opened the doors to the rehearsal hall and she immediately spotted Ebony Keys, Bass Clef, and Harmony gathered around with their instruments ready. Well, everypony except Ebony. Even Octavia had to admit that it would be hard for him to bring a piano to every venue he went to. Thankfully the palace always had a finely tuned piano in waiting. What she wasn’t expecting to see, was that she wasn’t the only pony that was wearing a diaper here. “Okay… I have to be dreaming now. Am I dreaming? Because there’s no way that there’s suddenly this many other littles around…” Octavia said.

“What? You think you’re the only one allowed to have a little side?” Harmony spoke up, being the other padded mare in question.

“Not at all! but since I left my house in Ponyville, I’ve run into at least,” Octavia started, counting as she thought. “Five other littles that were either already wearing a diaper, or mentioned other designs that were available. I can honestly say that I didn’t know that the little community was well, this big. I’m not complaining, just surprised… and suddenly… less compelled to keep it hidden,” Octavia said.

“Well I mean… it’s not like I want to go around parading it everywhere. But when Princess Celestia told us that you were going to be in your special attire tonight and there would be consequences if we said anything distasteful about it, I thought that I would let mine out a bit and wear it on stage with you tonight. I’m sure that Princess Luna would enjoy that as well,” the golden colored unicorn smiled.

“Ahem,” Ebony said, clearing his throat. “Terribly sorry ladies, but as cute as this is, we are here for rehearsal. Though honestly I don’t think we really need it. All of the pieces that we’ve been given tonight are all pieces that I believe we all have memorized. Clopin, Beethooven, Tchcoltski, Coltzart, and Brahms.”

“Sacrilege!” Octavia stated blunty. “The moment that a musician thinks they don’t need to rehearse and are infallible is the moment that they have the worst performance they’ve ever had. We rehearse cause so we can tune, and get into the flow, and more importantly, make sure it’s the pieces that we believe them to be. After all, they did write several pieces of music. They are classical music icons for a reason,” Octavia said, opening her case and starting to rosen up her bow.

Ebony just rolled his eyes. “Come on Tavi! It’s not like we haven’t played any of their songs at least ten times by now!”

“That may be,” Bass Clef started. “But Miss Melody does have a point. Getting the initial run through is vital to getting nerves out and making sure our timing is in sync. More importantly, as she said we need to be in tune.” the brown stallion with a blonde mane said.

“Fine…” Ebony said flatly.

Octavia just kind of raised an eyebrow at the entire spiel. She had never realized it before, mostly because she had never really been paying attention, but Ebony was the exact kind of pony that reminded her of Eiffel. He was arrogant to the point of cockiness, and thinking back he was like this at every venue. He thought that just because he was him that he was above everypony that needed a little bit of practice. Let alone want it. It didn’t matter to Octavia how talented a pony was if they didn’t want to put the work behind it to make it shine. It led to entitlement, which was what she had just been able to get away from.

She made her way to where she would be setting up, crinkling with every step. She also heard Harmony’s flank crinkling as well as she chose to set up next to her today. Mostly because if she stood next to Ebony right now she might lose her temper at how unprofessional he was being. Well, at least it wasn’t about the obvious thing in the room. She did notice that there were some refreshments in the hall as well like juice and a snack in case it went long. She doubted it, but the juice was appealing. Especially since it looked like there was some in… bottles? that had a label on it that were specifically for Harmony or Octavia. She liked the concept but she found it… a little bit impractical honestly with the instrumentation. Still, it was cute and thoughtful.

“Don’t worry about Ebony,” Octavia heard, turning to Harmony whom was speaking. “He’s just being his typical spoiled self. I think the only reason he even gets invited to these anymore is because his parents pay for him to be at these,” she heard Harmony add before laughing a bit.

“Probably. I think he’s just jealous cause his mommy wouldn’t let him join us on the padded brigade. WE can play all night worry free,” Octavia whispered back, giggling a bit herself.

“If you two are done, I would like to get this done! I have other places I would rather spend my time then here,” Ebony said sternly.

“Then buck off!” Octavia retorted, getting a shocked look from the other two. “If your heart and soul isn’t in the music that you're playing, then you’ve already failed as a musician. IF you don’t want to be here, please, the door is right bucking there. Don’t let it hit you on the way out and take your bucking elitist attitude with you. You are not the only piano player in Canterlot, and definitely not the only one that knows these songs. So don’t think for a moment that you’re not replaceable.”

“Look… All I said was that I wanted to get this started so we can have time to do other things…” Ebony said. “Canterlot has a lot more than just the palace you know.”

“You’re right, it does. And you will have plenty of time to do things after doing the job that we are getting paid to do,” Octavia said, taking a deep breath and then sighing. Without any further delay, the rehearsal started.

***

The rehearsal had taken about as much time as Octavia had thought it would take, and like she had figured, there were a few sections that they needed to go over where their timing wasn’t quite what they would have liked. It was made even more infuriating because every time they had to stop Ebony started complaining again. She was starting to get sick of it and kept biting her tongue. Before long though, the rehearsal had ended and it was time to start setting up for the bash itself.

The birthday bash was going to be held in the grand ballroom in the palace and it was already set up for the event. There were tables lined for the guests, another table for gifts to the princess. Something that made Octavia’s eyes go wide. She had forgotten a gift! In all of her excitement about performing and staying with the princess, she forgot about the one formality that was all but expected on a pony’s birthday! Not to mention the fact that this was probably the most important birthday party she’d be invited to!

She let out a rough sigh, and Harmony picked up on it. “What’s wrong now Tavi?” she asked.

“Just mentally kicking myself. I was so excited for everything else with this trip, I forgot that the main reason that we were coming was for Luna’s birthday, and I completely forgot to get the Princess a gift!” Octavia replied.

“Oh, I’m sure it will be fine! I’m certain the princess isn’t expecting a gift from every guest. Not to mention, what in the hay would we even get her? It’s not like she can’t just get anything she wants when she wants it,” she said leaning in. “Unless you were planning on giving her diapers.” she giggled.

“Well I did already offer to share with her so I don’t think that would be in good taste at this point. And I can’t count myself either because technically I’m Celestia’s gift to her by setting all this up.”

“Oh pishposh! Don’t think of yourself like that Tavi! You are a gift yes, but the only pony that can truly give you to anypony else is yourself. Celestia might be the ruler of Equestria, but she doesn’t own you. No pony does! We should finish getting set up though, It’s almost time to start. With the song list… I hope they aren’t planning on us playing for the entire event… they didn’t give us much of a repertoire for the night if that’s the case. Repeating the same songs for the crowd will get monotonous after a while. Even we can only do so much embellishing,” Harmony stated.

Octavia nodded. “I hope not either! I just wonder what kind of other events that they are going to have for the evening afterward. This is Luna’s first birthday back in Equestria since her banishment ended, so it’s hard to tell what her mindset is going to be! I am kind of excited to do the moon jumping, and this ‘waking dreamland’ sounds pretty cool as well. I mean, like walking into the dreamworld where you can do and be whatever you want!? To think that Luna has that kind of power where she can do all that! I just hope that it won’t be too taxing on her. That’s a lot of magic,” she started. “Oh look! Here comes Luna, Celestia and Icy now!” she finished, watching the clock strike seven. She gave the other musicians a nod, and they began playing.

She could feel a twinge starting in her lower body as they started playing and she noticed that as the guests started filing in, many of them were looking towards the stage and then back to Luna. Something else that Octavia noted, Harmony and herself weren’t the only two outside of the princess that was wearing a diaper. In fact, there for every two ponies that weren’t padded there was one that was. Some of them surprised her. She wasn’t surprised to see Upper Crust and Jet Set wearing them. Those too are always trying to brown nose everything to try to gain any sort of advantage that they can. It made her wonder what they actually did for Equestria and how they were nobility. They seemed like they were ponies that inherited their wealth and had absolutely no idea how they were supposed to actually use it. She also remembered them throwing shade at ponies from Ponyville just because they were from Ponyville and not Canterlot when they were at the Canterlot Garden Party a few months ago.

One pony that Octavia was shocked to see in padded, but not at the event, was Fleur de Lis! She was the supermodel of all Equestria, and seeing her in a diaper sent her mind spinning. She still couldn’t get around the fact of how large the little community actually was. The way the bash is turning out this might as well be just like the convention that she and Vinyl would be going to in a few months. She kinda wished she could have brought Vinyl now. She would have loved this.

Octavia was also pretty quick to notice that Harmony was looking around as well, and she also noticed the padding of the mare next to her starting to sag. She did it without missing a beat or even acknowledging what she was doing. Octavia smiled and then started doing the same, feeling the warm liquid splash against the front of her diaper as they worked their way through Beethooven.

Octavia also watched as more ponies started to enter the room. Lyra was soon coming in herself before raising an eyebrow and then smiling. She made her way over to an out of the way part of the party and looked like she was laying a mat down of sorts. She also looked like she was looking for something but Celestia knew what it was. Knowing Lyra it could literally be anything.

She kept watch on the door as they played, not really bothering to pay attention to the score. Octavia herself had this piece memorized; she'd played it so many times. She could play it blindfolded and not miss a note. The biggest thing that she noted was… Almost every single pony that was wearing a diaper tonight was a mare. There were very few stallions wearing them. Maybe three out of everypony that she had seen. She found that quite weird and wondered if maybe the difference in anatomy made it somewhat harder for them. She mentally shrugged, pushing that thought away for later.

One thing that did perplex her even more though, was the fact that not a single one of Equestria’s saviors were here. The Element Bearers were very much among some of the most important ponies in Equestria, even if the rest of Equestria didn’t want to admit it. They wielded the most powerful weapon that anypony has ever seen for eons. She knew it was early, but she had expected to at least see some of them by now. Of course there was always the possibility that they were dealing with something more important. What that could be she didn’t know, and honestly… she wasn’t sure she would want to know if it was. She wasn’t good with the whole apocalypse thing.
After a few more moments, she noticed a few ponies heading over towards where Lyra was, and then she realized what she was doing. She had set up a changing station for the ponies who were padded, and a few other mares were already taking her up on that offer. She might have to take her up on that herself after the show, depending on the line. Her attention shifted back to the door though. She was curious to see if there was anypony else that she knew that would be coming, and she got a shock when she saw a third Alicorn. She was bright pink and as bubbly as could be, and she too seemed to be padded and enjoying herself. Standing next to her was the captain of the royal guard. The only reason she knew that was because he was always present at events like this and she’d spoken with him a few times after things started settling down. She’d heard rumors of a third alicorn before, but this was the first time she’d actually seen this Princess Cadence herself. She wondered if she would be staying the week as well. She definitely wouldn’t complain about spending the week with two little princesses!

From there, the stage group just finished going through the motions as the guests filed in. They would be getting close to the end of their set soon, which would be a good thing for both her and Harmony. Harmony’s diaper appeared to be quite full now, and her own was quite a bit wetter than it was when they started. She didn’t want to do that on stage because she didn’t think that she could do so without pausing. They only had a few songs left anyway, she could hold that until she was at least able to get in line before she loaded her seat. As it stood, it was going to be a long, fun night.
