> Guard's Tale > by Detrail > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Midnight Bloom > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11:33 am: My name is Midnight Bloom and I am one of Princess Luna’s personal guards. Now it is a few minutes before my shift and I am getting into the rest of my uniform. I work alongside Mr. Stalwart Stance, one of Princess Celestia's personal guards. I don’t really understand why I was selected to be a guard. Just a few weeks ago I ran a small flower shop in Canterlot, but for some reason, I was requested to try out as a night guard. What scares me is not only did I pass, I was selected to work as Princess Luna’s personal guard. To be completely honest, I am not even sure how I have been kept on for so long. Back when I was supposed to get my orders, I think Princess Luna assumed, because I was a Bat Pony, I would be more nocturnal. I don’t blame her, but because I used to run a flower shop I was more a day pony. So I kinda, sorta fell asleep during my 3:00 am orientation meeting. This has been really hurting my job performance and I always feel like everypony is watching me for mistakes. 11:47 am: I slip on the rest of my custom armor. It is fairly standard night guard armor complete with helmet, but the back plate is left open to accommodate an addition to my uniform. For some reason, as part of our job, Mr. Stalwart and I are required to wear diapers. While I really don’t understand the details thanks to my nap the first day, I am actually pretty happy with this arrangement. While the pay is great, the hours are a bit odd and we can be called on to take any shift at any time. So, Mr. Stalwart and I tend to um… use them occasionally. Okay, no. I lied. We need them, like, every shift. I mean, not that I am exactly complaining or anything… I finish placing my greaves on and proceed out the changing room to take my post. 12:00 pm: Today, I have to work from twelve to ten. I am actually pretty happy because this let me sleep in. As I arrive at my post, I look over to see Mr. Stalwart standing by his station, diligently. Even with his diaper on, he always looks so cool. Unlike me, he always seems to be on top of things and so confident. Walking up next to him, I say good morning like I do every day. He always responds by smiling and nodding at me. He is very serious about his job, but he is always so nice to me. He then returns to his firm stance and serious demeanor. Seeing him diapered like that, he looks really cute. Too bad I have to work. I stand up next to him, take a similar stance, and wait for the princesses to arrive. 1:30 pm: After standing for over an hour, the princesses finally arrive, and we bow. They always look so refined as they arrive. Princess Celestia and Princess Luna always ask each of us how we are doing. After talking for a bit, they then proceed into the room. I am not too sure, but I think I shouldn't glance inside as they enter. I really don’t know what the room we are guarding even looks like. To be honest, I actually have no clue what I am even guarding. To make matters worse, since my rank is so high and this assignment is restricted, the only other ponies that know what I am doing is the princesses and Mr. Stalwart. So, I have yet to work up the nerve to ask anypony what I am supposed to do. I just hope that as long as I do what he does, everything will work out for the best. It is the strangest thing, though. Whenever that door opens or closes I always smell this sweet perfume. I would ask Mr. Stalwart but he never seems to notice, so I’d rather not bother him. 3:30 pm: It was now half past three and the day guards were beginning their rotation. When I first started this job I was afraid about all the ridicule I would get for wearing a diaper in public, but everypony has been very nice. As they walk by, they always salute us, and no pony stares or anything. At first, I was afraid it would be really embarrassing, but the way everypony treats us, I am certain whatever we are guarding must be really important. It makes me really proud of my job, but Mr. Stalwart is always so serious with his job. He never smiles at any of the guards that pass by. Maybe I should try to act more like him… I stop to take a look at him; he looks lost in thought. Looking at him without his serious face looks so strange. Wow, he really does look super cute in his diaper. I tried to turn away, but I couldn’t help but take one more look at him. I, um… better get back to guarding my post. 7:21 pm: Now I have about two and a half hours before my shift it over. Too bad I really, really, really, need to go to the bathroom. I know I have been working here for a few weeks now and I should be used to it, but it is kinda hard when it is ‘that’ thing. Wetting my diaper really isn’t a problem for me; actually, I am a bit amazed this one isn’t wet already. Messing it is a bit more… ARGH! The worst part is that Mr. Stalwart is right here and he will notice. I am getting red just thinking about it. Maybe if I ignore it, it will go away until after I can change out of this diaper. Just need to keep my focus. 7:38 pm: Okay, yeah. It didn’t work for as long as I hoped it would. Ugh! Gotta keep holding! Gotta keep holding! I keep shifting from side to side, trying desperately to keep myself from using my diaper. Why does this have to happen to me, of all ponies? In all my time working with Mr. Stalwart, he has never done anything like that in his diaper. I-I can’t do it in front of him. I need to keep holding on. I can feel the heat and pressure building up and my face getting redder. As I move my left hooves back I could hear a distinct hissing. Shocked, I stopped myself. I did NOT just do that without noticing. Quickly placing my hoof on the padding, I still find it dry. Wait, if I didn’t, then? I turn towards Mr. Stalwart and notice his diaper now had a distinct yellow tint to it. Looking over at him, I could see he was looking away and his face was red. This was the first time I ever saw him look embarrassed. Usually, my diaper is wet way before him, so he must feel awkward being the only one. Wow, he is too cute! Well, it looks like there is no point in me being embarrassed of doing something Mr. Stalwart can do. Looking away, I begin to concentrate. I try to not make it obvious, what I am doing. After a bit of pushing, I can feel my tail lift up and the warm mess begins to enter my diaper. I can hear the crinkling of the diaper as it pushes out to accommodate my mess. It feels like an eternity before it finally stops. When I am done, I look over to see Mr. Stalwart looking away. He is so nice, to try and give me some privacy so I don’t feel too embarrassed. Suddenly, an odd idea crosses my mind. Making sure he isn’t looking, I press my hoof into the back of my diaper. My eyes go wide as I realize just how foreign this new sensation is. I should be disgusted, standing with my own mess pressed against me, but for some reason, this feels amazing. Then, I am filled with thoughts of Mr. Stalwart standing next to me in his wet diaper. I wet my diaper a lot on the job, but now I think I may have actually enjoyed it more than I was letting myself believe. Now, the thought of him being there next to me in his wet diaper is starting to get to me. There must be something really wrong with me, but I am really loving this part of my job. I could only smile as I looked away. Just two more hours next to him. 10:00 pm: Finally! This has been a really interesting shift, but I am glad it’s finally over. Now to wait until the princesses walk out of that room, relieve us of our duty, and I can change out of this diaper. 10:10 pm: Argh! Where are they!? Our shift ended a while ago and I really need to change! I begin to feel a bit annoyed, having to wait, when Mr. Stalwart speaks to me. “Hey, Midnight. It looks like the princesses will be a bit late coming out. Our shift is technically over, so how about you go change and I’ll stand guard?” Wow, he is really nice. I know this is against regulation, but I really needed to go change. “Thanks, Mr. Stalwart! I’ll, um… be back really quickly.” As I begin my way back to the changing room, I could hear him call out to me again. “Midnight, I know I have asked you before, but could you please drop the ‘Mr.’? Stalwart is more than fine.”          “Okay, Stalwart!” As I turn to get changed, I could see him smile at me. Why do I feel so strange today? I better hurry up so Stalwart can get changed too. 10:22 pm: I finally make it back to the changing room. It is a small, lit room that contains a padded table, cabinet, and bathroom. Okay, I better do this quickly and get back to Stalwart as fast as I can. I open the cabinet and remove the package of diapers in my size. Pulling it out, I find the box of wipes. I lie down on the padded table. Then, I get to work untapping the used diaper and cleaning myself off. After a lot of wipes, I had managed to clean my coat off. A fun reminder to avoid doing this on the job again, no matter how great it was. I toss the used diaper into the nearby trash. As I put the box of wipes back into the cabinet, I hear something inside fall over. Looking inside, I see a little white bottle. I pull it out and open it. A familiar sweet scent flows out. Wait, that’s the same smell that comes from the room the princesses enter. I turn the bottle around to find the label says “Foal Powder.” So, that is why it smells so familiar. But, why does that room smell like foal powder in the first place? Could it be that maybe the princesses… Nah, there is no way! I quickly take the thought out of my mind. I begin to place the bottle back, but a new thought enters my mind. I swiftly grab the package of diapers, turn around, and get back to the padded table. I mean, technically I am still on duty until the princesses relieve us, so I would need to be in my full uniform. I can try and explain it all I want to myself, but I just really want to try the foal powder this time. I diaper myself, this time using the foal powder. I really didn’t think it would make much of a difference, but for some reason I feel really warm inside. I really need to use this stuff whenever I get ready for a shift from now on. Remembering that I needed to get back to Stalwart, I return the supplies back to the cabinet and return to my post as fast as I can. 10:32 pm: I swiftly make it back to the hallway where my post is. As I turn around the corner, I could hear somepony laughing. I stop myself as I quietly peer into the hall. It is a night guard laughing at Stalwart. I carefully listen in on the conversation. “...I have been seeing action instead of being stuck with this cushy job.” “I’m sure you don’t remember our last exchange, but it ended with your big head getting even bigger.” “Wanna go again, soggy diaper boy?”          “You know what I think, I-” Stalwart paused for a few seconds. He looked like he was thinking something over. He then continued, his voice full of confidence. “You know what, you aren’t even worth it. Now if you excuse me, I have a job to do.” I couldn’t believe he didn’t even get angry at the pony. If that was me, I would have probably snapped a while ago. Even though Stalwart didn’t respond, that jerk kept laughing at him. That’s it, I can’t take this anymore. I take off my helmet and fly towards the two of them. “Hahaha, so it is true! You’re nothing more than a spineless, worthless pony that can't even-” I chucked my helmet at his head before he is able to finish his sentence. It made a loud noise from the impact and the jerk went down pretty quickly. I land on the ground and continued towards Stalwart. He looked pretty confused with my action. I hope I didn’t do anything to get us in trouble. Stalwart kinda scolds me for attacking another guard, but he really seemed happy that idiot couldn’t run his mouth anymore. I offer to take the unconscious pony to the infirmary. Stalwart loads him on top of my back and I quickly fly him over. When I arrive to drop him off, I tell them my name and tell them what Stalwart told me to say, about him obstructing our duty. At first, I thought it was because of my rank that they didn’t ask any more questions, but as I left, I could hear one of the nurses say, “Not him again.” So, I am guessing this isn’t his first time doing something like this. I make it back to my post and tell Stalwart he can get changed now, but for some reason he said he was okay. Maybe I am not the only weird one here after all? I take my post and continue the watch. 11:03 pm: The princesses finally exit, and we are relieved from duty. Before we leave to change and go home, Princess Luna hands me a list and tells me I need to come in early next week to restock the room with Stalwart. I am not too sure what that means, but at least I finally get to see what’s inside of it. Stalwart looked a bit nervous when he found out, but he seemed to have lightened up and started laughing after a few seconds. He walks with me to the changing room. As we arrive, I stop. “You should go in first. After all, my diaper is still dry.” He smiles, “Thanks, Midnight. Be out real quick.” He enters, and in a few minutes, exits. It is so strange to see him without his armor or diaper on. Usually, he stays on after I leave, so I never see him outside of work. “Alright. Midnight, you’re up.” I nod as I enter the room. It takes me a few minutes to get out of my armor and place it on the stand in the room. I then take the unused diaper off, but it feels like a waste, throwing it away. I kinda want to keep it, but that would be really weird, even for me. So, I have to toss it away. I exit the room, expecting no pony to be there, but I am greeted by Stalwart, waiting for me. I walk up next to him, smiling. I am really happy to see him there. Together, we exit the castle and continue to our homes. 11:42 pm: It was a long walk back to my house, but Stalwart was there to keep me company for part of the trip. I think I really like him and I think I really like diapers. Or maybe, I am tired from today. I enter my bed, thinking only of myself and him together in diapers. That thought made me really happy, but at the same time, really sad. Well, there is always next week. I sigh as I slowly drift off to sleep. > Stalwart Stance > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 10:00 am: It is still early as I look over at the clock; I had arrived at ten o’clock. I am rather glad the princesses decided their private time would be a little later in the day. I always arrive one hour before anypony else. It’s not that I am required to, it is just that I’m a little embarrassed, and it isn’t just the ‘uniform’ they make us wear. No, I have a separate gripe with that. My problem is my co-worker, Midnight Bloom. Why did Luna have to select somepony like her to be her personal guard? For that matter, Midnight doesn’t even seem like an experienced guard. She has little to no restraint when using her diaper, so I end up spending the majority of my shift next to a pony in a used diaper. She is always smiling when she sees me; so friendly, so happy. Why, in all of Equestria, does she have to be so cute!? ARGH! I can feel my face burning and I begin to rapidly run my hooves through my mane. I grab the helmet and press it into my face, the cold metal helping to cool my face and calm me down. 10:22 am: It took me a while, but I have managed to calm myself down and tape my… sigh, diaper on. Why, oh why, has it come to this? I mean, I understand the princesses are desperate to keep their secret under wraps, but this seems a bit much. I don’t know if it is to keep us under control so we won’t use what we know against them, or if they think they are doing us a favor by letting us in on the fun while we keep watch. All I can say is, well... I am not complaining. I slip into the rest of my armor, modified to fit my diaper, of course. I place on my helmet, slip on my greaves, and proceed out. 10:31 am: I begin my rounds, checking over the various areas of the castle. I am to then collect supplies to restock the princesses’ private room. I am actually supposed to complete these tasks with Midnight, but that would mean us spending time talking with each other. So as a result, I come in here ahead of time and complete all of them myself. As long as I continue to treat our relationship as purely professional it should all work out, hopefully… 10:40 am: My rounds complete, I arrive at the unmarked storage room. Using my key, I enter inside and close the door behind me. The room itself is well illuminated and contains many boxes. I look over the requested items and grab the empty wooden crate nearby. Apparently, I needed to collect a box of foal wipes and package of diapers. I still don’t understand how they run through those as fast as they do. Two freshly clean blankets; one with Celestia’s cutie mark and one with Luna’s cutie mark. A new pacifier for Princess Luna and a box containing the princesses’ cleaned stuffed toys. I quickly collect the supplies and place them in the crate. Sigh… I have been doing this for far too long. As I arrive at their toys, I stop to admire how they look just like the guards. One light day guard in golden armor and one dark night guard in dark blue armor. As if driven by an unknown force, I hug them closely. They are so soft and smell just like foal powder. Realizing what I was doing, I place the toys into the crate and close the lid. Once again, I think I made the right choice, doing this job myself. I place the box on my back and exit the room, relocking it on the way out. 10:52 am: I arrive at that door, carrying the box of supplies on my back, and unlock the door. Usually, the restocking list for the princesses is much shorter; then again, recently we have been called on to run our shift more often. As I enter the room, I begin the process of restocking the supplies. No matter how many times I am in here, I am always left with a strange mixture of emotions. The room itself is a giant nursery constructed by the princesses for their own amusement. I should be a bit more concerned with why they have this room, but I am sure the fact that I am not is the prime reason I was selected for this job. I finish restocking the room and take one last look. It always looks so peaceful in here. No matter how tired or stressed I am, looking at this room always calms me down. I slowly leave the room, making sure no wandering passersby looks inside. I take my position next to the door and begin my duty. 12:02 pm: It has been a little over an hour of waiting, and right on cue I can hear crinkle of a diaper accompanied by the clinking of metal greaves. I need to keep my focus despite that crinkling growing louder with every passing moment. Immediately it stops, but no matter how hard I try I can’t stop myself from looking at her. I turn to be greeted by her glowing face. Why is she always so happy to see me?          “Good Morning, Mr. Stalwart!” she always does this and it never gets easier. Looking at her standing there, all padded up and smiling, I really couldn’t keep myself from smiling back at her and nodding. I turn back and try to regain my composure. She then walks past me and takes her post. Why does she have to be so darn cute? Well, hopefully today will go by quickly. 1:30 pm: Right on schedule, the princesses arrive. We bow. If I am not mistaken, this week has been particularly taxing on them due to recent external affairs. I am guessing the reason they are late to their own private time was the result of a meeting. Their guards leave, and we have some light conversation. I can tell they desperately want to get into their nursery. Midnight and I wish them well and they enter the room. As they enter, that smell of foal powder flows out; I have gotten very used to that sweet smell in my time working here. I am fairly certain Midnight is still not too used to it; I always hear her sniffing the air when they enter. Actually, now that I think about it, she never smells like foal powder when she arrives. Maybe she is too embarrassed to use the changing supplies when she changes into her diaper. No, that makes no sense. I am almost certain we were chosen because we don’t mind the attire. Sigh… It’s probably nothing; I just need to keep my focus. 3:30 pm: Two hours have passed by fairly quickly and it is time for the day guards to rotate. Looking at them reminds me of my old position. Before I was ‘promoted’ to the princesses’ personal diapered nursery guard, I used to guard the main gate. Work had actually gotten pretty stressful and I was considering quitting, but then I get this odd promotion. The first few weeks were actually pretty bad. There was this one guy I knew, back from the academy, who would enjoy taking jabs at me for wearing a diaper. Strangely enough, I haven’t seen him very much after that first month. Rumor has it that he is on border patrol now. Midnight really didn’t have to deal with any of the ridicule that originally came with this job. After that, the demeanor of everypony around here changed, and the guards began to show me the respect of my rank. I am almost certain the diapered princesses are behind his reassignment and the change in atmosphere. To be honest, it feels rather embarrassing having the captain of the royal guard salute me now that I am wearing a diaper. I am guessing, since this is her first job as a guard, this is probably pretty normal for her. Well, I may as well not tell Midnight everypony respects us because they are scared to do otherwise. 7:39 pm: Alright. This shift has been pretty uneventful. I can tell I have to go to the bathroom pretty badly, but I can hold it until after the shift is over. My focus is broken by the sound of a diaper crinkling nearby. I turn to see Midnight hopping hoof to hoof. That’s strange, she wets herself without even trying to resist. Unless… Ah, so that’s what she needs to do. I bet she is trying hard to keep her diaper clean and not embarrass herself. Sigh, I know how that feels. Now that I think about it, ever since she joined I haven’t had to do that in my diaper. No wonder she is trying so hard. Hmm… telling her it is fine would be really awkward. Well, I could do that, but then- My thoughts were broken once again by her shuffling and crinkling. Her face was red, and she looked really upset. Well, so much for keeping a clean diaper this shift. I slowly relax and let my bladder release into my diaper. It takes little to time for the diaper to soak it all up. I have to admit, the princesses went all out with these diapers. Letting it flow out reminds me exactly why I try to avoid using my diaper during my shift. It feels really good. My warm, wet diaper, combined with the thought of Midnight standing next to me, desperately trying to avoid messing her diaper… I could feel the blood rush to my face, turning it red. It takes all my strength to keep my cool as I continue to look forward. I was close to regaining my composure until I heard her begin to grunt. I keep from looking at her as I could hear her push into her diaper. I could hear it crinkle as she was loading it with her mess. In between each push I could hear her make cute grunt noises. She soon stops but looks away embarrassed. Unable to control myself, I make sure she isn’t looking, and press my hoof into the warm, wet padding. I do this for a moment and then return to looking away. Here I am standing in a warm, wet diaper, next to a cute little mare in a messy diaper. What in all of Equestria did I do to be subjected to this torture? I could only look away, smiling; just two more hours next to her. 10:10 pm: As I expected, the princesses have decided to extend their fun time. Standing here in my diaper, I really can’t blame them for wanting a bit more time. It is getting rather cold, so I would like to change soon. I then remember the condition of Midnight’s diaper. She must be pretty miserable, being forced to stand in her messy diaper. I have had to do it a few times, but I feel pretty bad with this being her first time getting stuck in messy diaper overtime. Hmmm… this will be a bit unorthodox, but then again, so is being diapered on the job. “Hey, Midnight, It looks like the princesses will be a bit late coming out. Our shift is technically over, so how about you go change, and I’ll stand guard?” She seemed to really perk up as I told her that. I couldn’t help but smile at how excited she became at the thought of getting her diaper changed. “Thanks, Mr. Stalwart! I’ll, um… be back really quickly.”          Why does she keep calling me ‘Mr. Stalwart?’ I tried to tell her before, but she became really nervous and stuttery so I ignored it until now. “Midnight, I know I have asked you before, but could you please drop the ‘Mr.’? Just Stalwart is more than fine.”          “Okay, Stalwart!” Hearing her call me that really makes me feel much better. I guess I will just enjoy the next few minutes alone while I wait for her to return. 10:24 pm: Waiting for Midnight to return, I hear the clinking hoof steps of a guard, but it lacked the distinct crinkle she made so I ignored it. It soon stopped, and my ears were bombarded with the jeers from a voice I hadn’t heard in a long time. “Stalwart Stance! So great to see the diapered soldier again. And I can see you have already wet yourself. Hey, when you are done playing, maybe you can join the adults doing the real work around here.”          It was that idiot again. His name was Dawn Flight, a night guard from the academy. He had always been a bit of a nuisance, but after I had been promoted he had taken a bit of joy in annoying me. “So, Dawn, I heard you were on border patrol. Shame they let you back in.” “Laugh all you want, but at least I have been seeing action instead of being stuck with this cushy job.” Wow, I had almost forgotten just how arrogant he is. “I’m sure you don’t remember our last exchange, but it ended with your big head getting even bigger.” “Wanna go again, soggy diaper boy?”          “You know what I think, I-” Before I could do anything I  heard a faint tap from the door behind me. So, the princesses are listening? I may as well let him run his mouth and let him dig his own grave. “You know what, you aren’t even worth it. Now if you excuse me I have a job to do.” “Hahaha, so it is true! You’re nothing more than a spineless, worthless pony that can't even-”         *Thunk*                  My eyes went wide. I could only look on as a dark object made contact with Dawn’s head, and he fell down to the ground. I look to the left, noticing Midnight standing there without her helmet on, looking very angry. She continued to progress closer towards the two of us, crinkling along the way. Why did she change into another diaper? Our shift is basically over. As I look down at Dawn, it was pretty obvious he was out cold. “Sorry, I overheard you two talking when I came back and I lost my temper.” She responded to me, smiling while she picked up her helmet. I doubt she was actually sorry. Not that I blame her.          “You really should learn to keep your cool, Midnight. If you are not careful you could have ended up in a lot of trouble for doing that.” It took a lot of effort to not laugh at what she did, but I think I managed. As I spoke, I could hear the princesses giggling behind the door. I am sure they enjoyed the show. “Well, I guess we should take him to the infirmary now.”          “Let me do it! I was the one that knocked him out, and I don’t want you to get in trouble for this.” I agreed and loaded the unconscious lug on her back. “Make sure you tell them your name and that he was obstructing our work. They’ll know what it means.” She nodded and flew toward the infirmary. As she flew away, I could smell the faint scent of foal powder coming off her. With her gone I could hear the door behind me open slightly, and I could see Princess Celestia through the doorway. “You should have told her she was free to accidentally drop him if he woke up before they arrived.” I turned to make sure no pony had entered the hallway and began to laugh, “I’d hate to be him if he woke up.” The door opened up a bit more, and I turned to see Princess Luna standing next to her sister, hair clips in her mane. “I apologize for my failure of letting Dawn Flight back in the castle patrol. I doubt either of you will be seeing him again. I also apologize for our, ahem, extended private time. We got a little carried away, and just to clarify, you both will be receiving overtime for this.”          Well, I expected as much, but it is still nice enough to have them say it. “Not a problem, princess. Please, take your time.” They thank me as they close the door and enter back into the room. It was obvious they were diapered, and it was obvious they were having fun. Why do I feel so jealous? Sigh… I am probably just tired from the shift. A few moments later, Midnight returns and takes her spot next to me. She asks me if I wanted to go change, but to be honest, I’d rather not. I decline her offer. I hope that doesn’t seem too odd to her. Then again, seeing as how she decided to wear another diaper, I am starting to suspect she may be more like me in that regard. 11:03 pm: The princesses are finally done with their private time, and they relieve us. As we are about to leave, I find out they were aware of my coming in to do both mine and Midnight’s work by myself. As such, I now am required to do the tasks with Midnight. At first the thought bothered me, but seeing how excited she looked, knowing that we would spend more time together, I began to laugh. Why did I keep this from her for so long? I like spending time with her, talking with her, and getting to know her. I can’t help but laugh at how stupid I really am. I quickly calm down, and the two of us proceed to the changing room. On the way there, I could feel my cold, soggy diaper between my legs. I really needed a change. As we arrived, Midnight stopped and spoke up. “You should go in first. After all, my diaper is still dry.” I was really happy to hear her say that. Even I can only take so long in a used diaper before I really want out. “Thanks, Midnight. Be out real quick.” I enter and make quick work taking off my armor. I swiftly get on top of the changing table and untape my sodden diaper and clean myself off. As I go to throw it out, I notice Midnight’s used diaper in the trash. It was almost surreal. Here we are, two grown ponies, changing our used diapers. This should bother me, but it really doesn’t. In fact, it only makes me even more psyched for our shift next week. Just me and her, together in diapers. Too bad it is during work. I toss my diaper out and exit the room. “Alright, Midnight, you’re up.” She nods but seems a bit sad entering the room. For some reason, I feel compelled to wait for her. Usually I avoid talking to her out of fear of messing up or embarrassing myself, but right now I want to wait for her. I want to see her again and to spend time with her. Maybe I really do like her more than I want to admit? It doesn’t take her long to exit. To be honest, this was my first time seeing her without her armor or diaper on. She still had that smile that I have always loved about her. No matter what she was wearing, she always looks so cute. This was no exception. As she closed the room behind her, I came close to her, and she came close to me. We left the castle and walked together. It was short, but I loved spending time with her as we continued to our homes. 12:07 pm: It took me a bit longer to make it back to my home than usual. I ended up walking in the opposite direction with Midnight just to keep her company for part of the trip. I am certain about my feelings for her and my feeling for the diapers we both wear. As I lay in my bed, I can only think back to the two of us together in diapers. The thought of that alone filled me with joy. Yet, I was left a bit sad knowing that that would probably never happen outside of work. At least I’ll see her again next week. I smile as I slowly drift off to sleep. > Celestia and Luna > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 10:31 pm: Luna thanked Stalwart for his assistance and closed the door, sealing the princesses’ private nursery away from the world. The nursery itself was made to help the princesses feel more relaxed, among other things. The floor of the nursery was soothing lavender, the walls different shades of blue, imitating the appearance of moving clouds. The air within smelled of foal powder, adding to the comforting feeling the room gave its occupants. The room itself contained two large cribs to accommodate the large rulers, each filled with stuffed toys and their cutie mark emblazoned blankets splayed within. Next to the cribs was a large table containing many drawers, directly adjacent to a closet. On the ground near the two regal ponies was a changing mat that appeared to have been used recently. With the door secured, Luna approached Celestia and glared at her. “Really, sister? You should not condone violence among the guards!”         Celestia laughed, walking further back into the warm room. “Relax, Luna. Besides, I did warn you against letting him back on patrol. I can only imagine what he would do were he to find out what goes on in this room of ours.”         Luna seemed disappointed as she walked towards Celestia. “Yes, and I do apologize for not taking your advice. However, you really should be more careful. You can't just open the door like that; anypony could have seen you!”          Smirking, Celestia hit her hoof against her sister’s padded rear, sending her stumbling forward. “Oh come on, Luna. I have full faith our guards will not let anything happen. Besides, you were more visible than me when you came by to talk to him.”          Luna sighed. “You and I both know the two of them aren’t exactly qualified, and I wasn’t the one walking around with a messy diaper.”          Without missing a beat, Celestia responded. “Well, you didn’t change me, so I didn’t have much of a choice, now did I?” An exasperated Luna almost shouted, “You didn’t let me change you!” Hearing herself, Luna placed her hoof on her mouth and sunk to the ground, her face burning red. “Hahahaha! Oh come on, Luna. We have been doing this for such a long time, yet you still get embarrassed. Can’t you just relax for a while?” Luna stretched her hooves out but remained silent. Celestia rolled her eyes as she walked away for a moment. A short time later, she returned and dropped a stuffed toy, in the shape of a night guard, on top of Luna’s hooves. With the stuffed creature so close to her, shame quickly became overpowered by her impulses. She immediately snatched the stuffed guard and embraced it. She began to roll on the floor giggling, all while snuggling with her plushy. Tired, she stopped to look up at her deviously smiling sister. Luna looked away embarrassed, still holding onto her toy. “Don’t judge me.” Her sister’s grin widened, “I would never.” Stifling her laughter, Celestia walked over to the changing mat and laid herself down. “Now could you please change me so we can relieve the cute couple outside?”         Luna sighed and placed her toy on the ground, “Yes, sister.” It was obvious that she wanted to continue having fun, but she knew it had to end eventually. While collecting the supplies, she began to question Celestia. “Sister, why did you decide to do this with ‘them’?”         “What do you mean? You are always going on about how we need to be more secure.”         “No. You recruiting Stalwart Stance as our room’s guard was secure. You requesting I recruit Midnight Bloom, a pony that had little to no experience, is what makes me wonder. Did you plan this all along?”         Celestia smiled mischievously and looked away. “Why whatever do you mean?”         Luna sat down in front of her messy sister. Her diaper crinkled as she placed the changing supplies down. “As they say, let’s cut to the chase. I know you were the one that secretly suggested to Midnight Bloom to try out for the night guard. I know you are the one that fixed her results so she would get in, even with no prior training. I also know you went to great lengths to have them both guard our nursery and to have them diapered while they did it. You knew how they would react, and you knew they would end up enamored with each other. So why did you do it?”         Celestia, still laying on her back for her diaper to be changed, chuckled. “My goodness, you certainly are getting better at this, Luna. You are right about most of it. However, I didn’t need to fix her marksmanship scores. She excels at hitting her target!”         Luna became annoyed with Celestia’s continued dodging of the question. “Sister, please stop avoiding the subject. You know we shouldn’t interfere with other pony’s love lives!”         Celestia smiled. “So, what was in their dreams last night?” Luna’s eyes went wide. “I mean, it is quite unusual for you to be the one to make us late for our private time in the nursery.” Luna’s face slowly warmed until it became visibly red. “Did it involve the two of them diapered and cuddled up s-” Luna quickly used her magic to ram her pacifier into her sister’s mouth, causing her to instinctually suck on it, silencing her. Celestia looked away, and smiled behind pacifier.         It took Luna a few minutes to calm down. “I see your point. For now, I better get you out of that used diaper so we can send them home.” Celestia nodded as she continued to suck on her sister’s pacifier. Luna tore the tapes off and after a few minutes, managed to change her big sister out of her messy diaper, tossing the used diaper into the trash. As Celestia stood up, Luna used her magic to quickly untape her own clean diaper, tossing it out. Using her own magic, Celestia pulled the pacifier out from her mouth, albeit with slight resistance from her continuous sucking, and placed it on the table next to her own. Believing she had removed every trace linking her to their nursery, Luna walked to the door. Before she got far Celestia stopped her. “Aren’t you forgetting something?” It took Luna a few moments to remember the white clips in her mane and the ribbon on her tail, causing her to blush. Celestia called her sister over as she removed them and placed them in the top drawer of the table. Their time in the nursery came to a close for the day. They slowly exited the room to relieve their guard of their duty. 11:22 pm: With their personal guards dismissed for the day, the two princesses walked through the halls on the way back to their respective rooms. Celestia looked over to her sister. “So how did you find out Stalwart was handling his duties by himself and Midnight didn’t know what she was actually guarding?”          Luna looked a bit startled. “They had a few, err… interesting dreams that gave it away.”          “Oh come on, Luna, can’t you tell your big sis what you saw? I promise I won’t tell anypony.” Luna continued to walk forward unwavering; she was always good at keeping secrets. “Oh well, that isn’t too much of a problem. I have something interesting planned for the two of them in a few weeks.”          That worried Luna. “S-something interesting? What do you mean by that, dear sister?”          “Don’t worry, you will find out soon enough!” Celestia stated with an ominous tone. Luna knew it was pointless to ask. Celestia had something devious concocted. She could only hope things wouldn’t end badly for the padded couple. As much as she knew she should keep her distance, she was really growing quite fond of them. 11:28 pm: The two sisters made it back to their own rooms and entered their beds. Today was a day for them to take a break from both the day and the night. As they closed their eyes, they were certain today was a perfect day and that they would get to have another one very shortly. Questions still lingered in their minds regarding the cute diapered couple, whose lives became an interest of the rulers. For now, all they could do was close their eyes as they slowly drifted off to sleep.
