Baby of the Horde
Baby of the Horde
By Scribe Feather
Few ponies know the true nature of dragons. The culture and lifestyles of these winged beasts are shrouded in mystery. This is likely a result of the massive size difference and the vicious stigma that hovers over these creatures. In most cases, ponies give dragons their wide berth. In the distant dragon lands, a fair distance away from the pony kingdom of Equestria, societies of dragons live out their lives practically unimpeded.
For many dragons, measurements of strength and wealth are held above all else. Rites of passage like tail wrestling and treasure hunting are trials that all dragons have to pass through if they hope to be respected by their peers. For most, these challenges can be easily conquered, but not all can hope to take on “alpha-like” status in their society.
Fizzle, a meek and quiet sort was one of these dragons. The pink dragon saw very little use with showing off or proving to others that he was strong or could gather the most gemstones. He spent his life out of the way of the limelight, cleverly avoiding any public embarrassment that may bring light to his shortcomings.
Where his friends spent countless hours down near the local lava pits, sparring one another in trivial tournaments for dominance, Fizzle was perfectly content with being alone.
Today he was spending his afternoon quietly in his cave. He peacefully rested ontop his bed, blankly staring up at the ceiling. One would think he was deep in thought with the contemplative expression he wore, but in reality he was practically sleeping with his eyes open, hardly aware of the world around him. He daydreamed the minutes away.
It wasn’t until his good friend Garble came in that the pink dragon finally broke free of his lazy daze. The red dragon was noticeably better built than the thin Fizzle. The tough dragon was held in the highest regard in their usual circle of friends, typically winning almost every tail wrestling match he was thrown into. He had gathered quite the reputation of being one of the stronger dragons in their group.
“Hey Fizz, the guys are meeting down by the lava pits,” Garble said as he peeked his head into the room, “Spikes over for a visit. Ya coming?”
Fizzle lifted his head, “oh, yeah, I’ll be right down.”
With that said, Garble simply nodded and disappeared as quickly as he appeared. He didn’t wait around for Fizzle, much too interested in getting back to the group to even taken notice. Fizzle eventually followed, trailing far behind the stronger dragon.
Down by the lava pits the group had already gotten into a fierce tail wrestling match by the time Fizzle joined them. The group of about eight or ten dragons stood around in a circle as two dragons locked tails with one another in the center. The crowd cheered them on as the two dragons intensely tugged against each other. Both dragons held up well against their strong opponent.
“I got winner!” Garble called out, pounding his fist into his palm.
Beside the red dragon stood Spike, the newest and youngest edition to their group. The younger dragon looked on as the competitive games continued. Fizzle decided to take his spot next to them, finding some strange amount of safety among the two.
Fizzle was never much of a fan of participating in the fierce tail wrestling games. He was really not much of a strong dragon to begin with. The thinner dragon would always avoid joining in, coming up with quick excuses if need be. Luck for him, Spike also didn’t seem too interested in joining.
The two wrestling dragons continued to pull at each other. The crowd cheered them on as both of them put up quite the fight. The test of strength pushed both dragons to their limits.
Finally, in one forceful move, one of the wrestling dragons were flung to the ground. The defeated dragon flew to the floor with great exercision, knocking him out in the process. The dragons around them cheered, celebrating the victor who stood proudly over his triumph.
Garble jumped into the freight almost immediately after, the crowd responded in kind. Hardly faulted by his recent match, the winning dragon jumped in quickly, gladly accepting his new competitor. The other dragons cheered as the games began once more. Spike couldn’t help but get into the mood, cheering along with the rest of the group.
“Hey Spike, what’s it like livin’ with all those ponies?” A dragon from the circle asked the smaller dragon.
“Oh, it’s alright,” Spike shrugged, “I mean it’s kinda different from you guys. There’s much less tail wrestling and lava baths.” To Fizzle, this sounded like a much easier place to live. “Twilight doesn’t usually like me doing rough stuff like that.”
“Sounds like those ponies really baby you,” the other dragon responded.
“Ha! Yeah, that’d make TWO babies in the group,” Garble chuckled, pointing back towards Fizzle, hardly losing his grip on the other dragon’s tail..
Fizzle’s ears droop as he took a timid step backwards. “I’m not a baby!” He attempted to defend himself. “I-I’m not!”
More of the group joined in as the teasing continued. A new dragon entered the conversation with a hearty laugh, “of course you are! Barely bringing any treasure back after our raids, never wrestlin’, always asking to be escorted to the bathroom at night.”
“Sometimes I get scared of the dark,” Fizzle meekly tried to defend himself, his hands nervously fidgeted in front of him.
The group responded with even more laughter. Garble continued, “and he’s got like the smallest treasure pile you’ve ever seen!”
Fizzle growled and stomped his foot. "I don't!" he tried to bellow, but involuntarily squeaked out. That only seemed to intensify the teasing.
“You TOTALLY do!” Another dragon spoke up, “you got the smallest treasure pile then any of us!”
“Do NOT!”
“A perfect sized hoard for a little baby,” another dragon commented.
“Yeah, a little baby hatchling,” chortled another, “need a diapee change, little hatchling?”
Fizzle scowled at the teasing dragons, “I’m not a hatchy!”
The pink dragon’s poor choice of words only intensified the group’s laughter and soon everyone was in mass hysterics. Even Spike smirked a tiny bit, getting into the flow of the group.
Fizzle’s cheeks flared up red when he realized his mistake. He huffed one last weak “quit it!” before he finally gave up. The group of laughing dragons showed no sign of stopping. Stretching out his wings, the pink dragon flew out of area before things got worse. He retained that same pouty scowl the whole way home as he flew back to safety.
“Will Fizzle be alright?” Spike asked as he watched the pink dragon disappear into the cave covered mountain.
“Ehh, he’ll be alright. He’s always throwing these tantrums,” Garble answered, shrugging the moment off, “let him have his hissy fit. I’ll talk to him later.”
And with that, the group turned back to the festivities. Most of them completely forgetting about Fizzle’s little spectacle.
Fizzle’s cave was a welcomed sanctuary from all the teasing. He huffed, angrily kicking a rock across the room when he entered. The rock barely reached the far wall as the pink dragon continued to fume.
“Baby...I’m NOT a baby! THEY’RE the babies!” He growled, throwing another rock, this one barely making it as far as the first. “I don’t even WANT a big treasure pile! It’s stupid!”
The dragon growled, kicking a few more rocks and even punching a rocky wall a couple times. At no point did he really leave any marks, only managing to bruise a knuckle more than anything else. The pain seemed to help him simmer down from the heated encounter.
He huffed, plopping down on his bed. “I’m not a baby...” He grumbled. He crossed his arms, angrily scowling at the ground as the heat of anger still warmed his chest. He caught a glimpse of his treasure pile, the small collection of gems and gold coins that he had amassed next to his bed. Looking at the pile just made him scowl even more.
The frustrated dragon pouted in his room for a few minutes as the anger eventually started to subside. Heated irritability slowly melted into tense agitation, which eventually morphed into quiet recollection.
“Need a diapee change, little hatchling?” A voice echoed in Fizzle’s mind as he recalled the events of the day. Despite all the infuriating teasing, that phrase continued to stand prominently in Fizzle’s mind. Anger fell way to curiosity as Fizzle transitioned from fuming to wonder. What would it feel like to wear a diaper again?
It was hardly a thought that crossed his mind before, but as the minutes went on it became more and more conspicuous. And with that curiosity came contemplative thought. He could barely remember being a hatchling, something like that was years ago. He quickly reasoned that everyone could barely remember those years. It was a long forgotten time, a time that suddenly made the pink dragon curious.
What would it feel like to wear a diaper again? Was he really curious enough to try it? It was a nagging feeling now, an urge that he never thought he’d feel.
When the desire didn’t go away, Fizzle made a decision. He decided to indulge in this new idea. Maybe it’d lead to something fresh and exciting. He was nervous, that was an understatement, as he worried about the other guys finding out. He was worried, excited, and growing more curious by the minute all at the same time.
With a flap of his wings, the pink dragon left his home and took to the skies. He effortlessly lifted into the sky, high above the clouds. The landscape below him shrunk with each wing flap.
As Fizzle glided through the air, the landscape below him changed from dark, rocky oranges to lush greens and flowing rivers. It was certainly a brighter land compared to the mountains he was use to.
Ponyville was a little settlement that rested in the valley of tall purple mountains. The quaint village even appeared friendlier than the dragon’s domain. The large cluster of yellow topped buildings seemed to sit peacefully on the land as tiny, multicolored ponies walked from one to the other. Life seemed noticeably different than the rough and tumble crowd Fizzle was use to.
Taking in a deep sigh, Fizzle lowered his altitude. When he landed, he attracted a few stares from passing ponies almost immediately. Some ponies seemed a bit uneasy seeing a dragon land in the middle of town, others hurried their walk to quickly pass the larger lizard. However as his visit continued, ponies around him started to lower their guard.
The fact of the matter, not many ponies saw him as a threat. They were intimidated at first, but there was something about Fizzle’s appearance that made ponies lower their guard rather quickly around him. Eventually he found himself blending in rather well. Blending in as well as a pink dragon could at least.
He journeyed onwards through the cobblestone streets of Ponyville. He passed a number of timber framed cottages that lined the quaint streets of the quiet town. Eventually the streets led him to a local convenience store, a single location where ponies could purchase all the necessities they might need.
The average sized store was a newer addition to the town, made obvious by the precise and angular architecture and it’s smooth tan rock exterior walls. Posters hung near the front doors advertising weekly sales on a number of items.
Fizzle entered the store and quickly moved past the row of registers that dotted the store’s front. He nervously ducked down into one of the aisles, worried that he’d run into someone he knew somehow. The store seemed mostly empty as ponies prefered to spend the day outside rather than inside the brightly lit store.
Aisles stretched down towards the back of the store, each kept meticulously organized to contain a set list of items. Down one aisle stood a wide variety of shampoos and hoof care products. Another aisle had rows of brightly colored pre-packaged foods for eating on the go. While another was fully stocked with pieces of parchment and quills.
The diaper aisle was easy to find, Fizzle just had to follow the smell of baby powder and other nursery scents. The aisle was lit up with brightly colored packages, each one competing to grab the attention of passing customers. The various brands lined the multiple shelves on both sides, all organized by size and age group.
Fizzle blushed as he passed the colorful baby diaper brands, too embarrassed to even look at the adorable prints that decorated each one. Sometimes the diapers would have portraits of happy little foals showing off that specific brand of diaper, others would have a cutsie, eye catching name. As he worked farther down the age range, the diapers became more somber, dimming down their color palette to a more medical design. Most of the diapers for older ponies lacked any kind of fun design or features like wetness indicators. Most of them remained clinically white and acquired a pull up design.
Fizzle was overwhelmed by the walls of diapers. He could hardly believe the amount of brands and variety there were. Even for adults, the amount of brands to choose from were astounding. He didn’t even know where to start.
He would awkwardly look at each package from a distance, trying to decide if they were the right ones for him from their front face alone. There was very little information he could decipher from the large, eye catching logo and slogans. Much too shy to pick up the packages himself, Fizzle was rather lost.
"Can I help you find anything?" a voice said from behind, causing Fizzle to jump.
"Ah! N-no! I was just looking!" Fizzle quickly replied before turning around.
Standing opposite of him was a light tan maned mare, about a head shorter than the pink dragon. She wore an open red vest embroidered with the store’s logo on the left side, a standard uniform for the stores employees. The vest only partially covered up a star shaped lily mark on her flank. She wore her mane in a clean side bun, free of any large strands of hair.
The brown pony blinked for a moment, looking over the pink dragon with a blank stare. It was clear that she wasn’t entirely convinced by Fizzle’s lie. "Are the diapers for a family member? Friend?"
"F-friend," Fizzle quickly answered, "y-yeah, it's for a prank. I'm getting him diapers as a prank."
"A prank, huh?" the brown pony said with a tap of her chin, "well if what you're looking for is embarrassing looking diapers, then you'll probably want these."
She motioned towards a brand of diapers that sat on the middle shelf. Picking up the pack to show the dragon revealed the true bulk of the package. The words “Silly Filly” dominated the soft package’s front face, showcasing the diapers’ features and design. A picture of a pink and purple hued diaper rested by one of it’s corners to advertise to the buyer.
Fizzle was quick to note the diapers’ design. "B-but they look so babyish! I don't need- I-I mean he wouldn't like how they look."
"They'd be the best you could get. Your...friend might appreciate the good ratings these diapers get." She flipped the package around to it’s back where walls of text and little captions explained important things like absorbency, snugness, and affordability. "I see a lot of ponies buy them for their absorbency alone."
Fizzle cleared his throat as he blushed, "a-and they'd fit...You know, someone my size?"
"Sure," the mare answered, holding back a smirk, "they'd fit someone your size just fine."
Fizzle awkwardly grabbed the package out of the pony's hooves. "Th-then I'll go with these then."
"Good choice," the mare answered with a single nod. "Do you want to get some wipes and baby powder as well?"
"Nah, I probably won't even- I-I mean my friend just needs the diapers!"
The mare smiled back, “just checking. I can ring you up if you take the package up to the registers.”
Fizzle blushed, holding the plastic package close to his chest. He scurried out of the baby powder smelling aisle and made a beeline for the cash registers in the front. All but one register was closed for the day. He was just thankful that the store was almost completely empty at this time of day.
He slipped into the sole open register line and awkwardly waited for the brown pony to join him. She eventually did so, calmly walking down the aisle and to her post at the register.
“Alright, one package of Silly Filly diapers,” the mare passively commented, dragging the package across the scanner. Fizzle shrunk a tiny bit, blushing as he looked around the empty store to see if anyone heard her.
Fizzle tried to pay for the diapers as quickly as possible, but it seemed like the mare was deliberately taking her time with bagging the soft plastic package. He could only stand there tense with fidgety nerves as she completed their transaction. His nervous and shy state seemed to only dilate time, making it move agonizingly slow.
“Have a good day,” the mare smiled, handing Fizzle his bags.
Fizzle practically snatched the bag out of the mare’s hooves at lightspeed. “You too!” And with that he was out of the line, toting his newest purchase close to his chest.
His cheeks wouldn’t stop blushing as he scurried back into Ponyville proper. Despite what his worry filled imagination first thought, there were no angry mobs hunting him down nor were his friends waiting outside to point and laugh at the diaper loving dragon. In great contrast to his worries and anxiety, Fizzle found the reality of the situation quiet and uneventful. No one seemed to even care. He had to take a silent breath of relief after that.
Gripping the store bags tightly, Fizzle took to the skies once more. He felt less tense the farther up he went. The more he flapped, the less likely it was to be seen with such embarrassing cargo.
The journey back home felt much longer than it actually was. The worries of being caught with adult sized diapers certainly hung over the dragon’s head as a guilty and embarrassing thought. Why did he even get the baby printed ones? What was he thinking? He remained tense and nervous the whole flight back, eyes darting from left to right as he continued.
His home cave couldn’t come quick enough. The moment he set eyes on the structure, Fizzle swooped down into it, closing the door and covering up any windows that he could find. He holed himself up in his bedroom, quickly tossing the package of diapers onto his bed.
His hands wouldn’t stop shaking with the rush of adrenaline as his heart continued to beat hard against his chest. He did his best to steady his breathing as his eyes darted around the room for any kind of open window or spy camera watching him.
“Made it,” Fizzle exhaled, concluding the coast as clear.
His eyes now trailed down toward the package of diapers that shined like a beacon of curiosity. He could hardly believe that he actually went out and bought adult diapers. He no longer could recognize the feelings that compelled him to make such decisions.
After one last check to ensure his bedroom door was closed, Fizzle ripped open the soft plastic packaging and pulled a single diaper out.
“They’re so thick,” Fizzle mumbled to himself, struck with awe at the sight.
His fingers danced across the bulbus padding. His heart seemed to jump at each little crinkle that came from the infantile looking garment. A strange sense of wonderment and happiness stirred up inside of him as he continued to closely inspect his new spoils.
Spreading the diaper flat onto his bed sent shivers of anticipation down Fizzle’s spine. He ever so carefully, ever so slowly lowered his rump down onto the pillow like padding. Bolts of pleasurable electricity surged through him as his weight pressed down on the diaper.
His hands shook as he fumbled with the diaper’s tapes. One by one, he managed to secure the tapes around his waist, encompassing his crotch in the plush garment. It took a few adjustments, even requiring Fizzle to retaped a few times before he got the fit just right.
When he had finally succeeded, the pink dragon leaned back to take a deep breath of air. The bulky, pillow like garment kept his legs apart with its fluffiness. A rush of strangely familiar feelings warmed his heart as he basked in the crinkling sensations.
He pulled himself up off the bed and waddled off to his full body mirror. He examined himself from every angle, relishing in the new fountain of feelings that filled him up. He couldn’t stop smiling at the sight. He was wearing a diaper and it just felt right.
Time seemed to fly by as he happily examined his diaper at every angle he could think of. He could hardly keep track of the time as he continued to smile at the sight. Soon his personal fashion show gave way to a quiet twinge in his bladder. He needed to pee.
At first he was just going to wear the diaper, but now that it was on, new thoughts came to mind. He already had the diaper on, what difference would it make to wet it? Maybe just a little. His clever mind quickly reasoned that it would only waste the diaper if he took it off now.
In only seconds, Fizzle convinced himself to wet himself, something he never imagined he’d do. His bladder needed much more convincing, requiring much of his focus and concentration. It was difficult to overcome years of potty training. His bladder seemed to lock up at the very thought.
After quite a bit of effort, Fizzle was finally rewarded with a quiet hissing sound. That hiss was accompanied by a gentle warming sensation and eventually turned into a louder hiss. His diaper swelled up before his eyes as it absorbed the bladder’s worth of urine. A faint yellow tint began spreading across it’s infantile face, removing any wetness indicators that stood in its way.
“Oh my gosh...” Fizzle mumbled, placing a hand on top of the soaked diaper. “I actually wet it...” He smiled as he pressed his hand into the swollen padding. The diaper squished and shifted about as it crinkled loudly.
His naughty exploration was suddenly interrupted by a growing pressure in his stomach. The urge and, strangely enough, desire to mess in his diaper suddenly appeared in Fizzle’s mind. An awe inspired grin lit up his face. Could he really do such a thing?
The wet diaper seemed to help convince him quicker. He stood up in hopes to gather himself for one of the most infantile deeds he would commit.
He started to push, grunting as he began to squat out of instinct. It was certainly other worldly to be doing his business in a diaper, in the middle of his bedroom. His body seemed to be well aware of this fact, making it difficult to work with.
A few grunts were all that was needed to award Fizzle with a strange, but oddly familiar weight tugging down his diaper. A soft load filled the padding more and more as the seconds ticked away like minutes. Once started, filling his diaper seemed to happen effortlessly with very little effort from the diapered dragon.
Finally his body relaxed, his arms drooping to his sides as he stood there in the aftermath of his dirty deed. For a moment or two he just stood there, baffled by what just happened. The diaper now sagged heavily, well used in both the front and back.
A tentative hand reached around to the back of the diaper, prodding it’s padding with a finger. The crinkling plastic had a sizable bulge in it now, hardly something Fizzle would expect himself to do willingly. He could hardly believe he got to this point.
But despite this unbelievable choice, part of Fizzle determined that this was the right decision. Not just messing himself in the middle of his bedroom, but buying the diapers to begin with. Something about all of it felt right to the dragon and more and more of him became convinced it was a good decision as time went on. It scratched an itch that he never knew needed itching.
His mind’s certainty all gathered to form a new bulge that pushed out his diaper’s front. With this new wave of sensations came a new pleasure that Fizzle never noticed before. Pressing an open palm into the messy diaper back seemed to only intensify his growing erection. His other hand lowered to the yellow tinted crotch where it teased him further.
“W-wow,” he mumbled quietly, slow rhythmic crinkles emitting from his diaper, “it really feels good...”
Both of his hands then pressed deeper into the thick padding of the diaper, stirring up even more arousing feelings that tingled his body.
“Why are you in a messy diaper? Shouldn’t you be potty training?” The words slithered out with heated arousal as Fizzle’s voice shivered with each sensual touch of his diaper. “M-my diaper’s so full...”
The diaper fondling turned into rubs as Fizzle moaned where he stood. Both hands worked away at the thick diaper, smushing the stinky mess in the back and further teasing the growing bulge in the front. The more he rubbed, the more he wanted to rub.
At some point during his infantile masturbation session, Fizzle found himself dropping down onto his bed. The response was immediate, his messy diaper squishing firmly against his butt as the mattress pushed against him. This further fueled his erotic desires. He wanted more.
His rubs became quicker, harder, and dug deeper into the soggy padding that enveloped his stiff cock so sensually. His limbs instinctively curled up on themselves as he inched closer and closer to orgasmic bliss.
“Wh-what a little diaper hatchy!” Fizzle exclaimed as he continued to squish his diaper about furiously.
Finally Fizzle moaned, letting in a big breath of air and then letting it all slide out slowly. His hips bucked as his toes curled as he experienced one of the most intense orgasms of his life. The surge of erotic energy corsed through his body, sucking the life out of him as every ounce of him screamed in intense arousal. He had never experienced such a forceful orgasm.
His cock spurted out strings of cum into the diaper, splattering the load across it’s urine soaked insides. The diaper grew slick as Fizzle rode out the wonderful orgasm.
Such an intense release left the diaper dragon panting and immensely satisfied. He lazily laid on his bed, arms and legs sprawled out across the mattress as he enjoyed the afterglow.
As the afterglow faded, a yawn slipped out of Fizzle’s mouth. Such diaper play left the dragon exhausted. He knew he needed to change his diaper, but figured there’d be plenty of time after a short nap to do that.
His diaper squished and crinkled as he moved up into bed. A bedsheet was tugged up over the dragon, enveloping his body in it’s soft warmth. He yawned once again as his body began to instinctively curl up. The diaper continued to hug his waist as a constant reminder of both security and satisfaction. He had never been so relaxed.
He yawned again as he closed his eyes. Soon he was off to sleep, snoozing soundly in his soaked diaper. A soft smile hung on his face as he dozed off for what he initially thought to be a quick nap.
Fizzle’s short nap lasted well into the night and before he knew it he slept till morning, pleasantly nestled in his full diaper. The morning sun dawned over the horizon, announcing the start of a new day.
Garble arrived at Fizzle’s cave unannounced early in the day. He thought it strange that the whole place was closed up.
“Hey Fizz, ya in there?” Garble called out, knocking on the cave’s door. He listened for a response, but didn’t hear any. Just to be sure he gave it a few more knocks before letting himself in, “Fizz?”
Entering Fizzle’s home, Garble found the place practically abandoned. The small rooms laid in silence, undisturbed by any sort of foot traffic. The bedroom was the first place he checked, figuring that if he wasn’t answering his door, Fizzle must have been sleeping in again.
“Fizz, ya in there?” Garble asked as he knocked on the door. His ears could just faintly hear some sleepy grumbles, followed by quiet plastic rustling. “Sleeping again,” Garbled said with a roll of his eyes, “well he’ll sleep the day away if I don’t wake him up now.” And with that, the red dragon let himself into the bedroom. An off putting scent lingered in the room that only intensified as he got closer to Fizzle’s bed.
Fizzle now laid curled up in a loose ball on his bed. His thumb had managed to find itself in his mouth as he quietly suckled on it in his sleep. His wet and messy diaper was exposed and on display to anyone who walked in on the diapered dragon.
Garble scoffed, shaking his head, “I knew it.” He rolled his eyes at his babyish friend before walking in close. His nose instinctively curled up in disgust as the stink of Fizzle’s used diaper hit him with force. He shook his head one last time before nudging the pink dragon awake. “Hey Fizz, time to wake up.”
The pink dragon grumbled something in response, barely even squirming as he lazily leaned away from the nudges.
Garble sighed, “come on, dude, you need to change your diaper. You stink!”
That seemed to do the trick. Fizzle’s eyes shot open in terror as memories of last night’s ‘experiments’ came rushing back to his waking mind. He shot up to attention with a loud gasp. “Garble! What are you doing in here!” He quickly scrambled away with shame, desperately trying to find something to hide behind. His wings could just barely cover up his shame.
Garble smirked, crossing his arms with a shake of his head, “geez Fizz, when I asked if you needed a change yesterday I didn’t actually MEAN it.”
“G-go away!” Fizzle squeaked, shaken up by the humiliating encounter. He fought back tears as he turned away from his friend. Never before had he been so embarrassed. “D-don’t even look at me!”
His friend’s quivering voice seemed to soften Garble’s advances. “Dude, it’s alright. I’m just kidding.” He did his best to ignore the lingering stench that hung in the room. “What are you even doing in a baby diaper anyway?”
Fizzle sniffled, holding back the tears that welled up in his eyes. “Y-you’ll just laugh at me,” he answered, his voice quivering a tiny bit.
“No, dude, I won’t,” Garble replied, forcing himself to take a step closer to the humiliated dragon, “I’m your friend. I won’t laugh. Promise.”
Fizzle sniffled a few more times, wiping a single tear out of his eye as he stared at the ground in embarrassment. “I...” he started, his voice quivering at the very thought of how humiliated he was, “I...was just...curious how it felt.”
“So you went off and soiled a baby diaper because you were ‘curious’?”
“G-Garble,” Fizzle weakly whined.
“You’re right, you’re right. Sorry, that was mean...”
There was another heavy pause of silence. “Look, I understand if you don’t want to be my friend anymore,” Fizzle answered with a sniffle or two breaking up his sentences. “Who would want to be friends with an embarrassment like me? A diaper wearing...coward!”
“Now wait a minute. I never said that,” Garble called out as he quickly closed the gap between the two ponies. “Sure this diaper thing is...weird...But I’m your friend.”
“This was stupid,” Fizzle shamed himself as tears trickled down his cheeks. “I should have never bought a pack of these stupid diapers.”
“A pack? You got a whole pack of them?”
“I shouldn’t have done it!” Fizzle exclaimed pounding his fist into his knee in a quick burst of angry energy. “Maybe you were right. Maybe I AM just a scared little hatchling...” The pink dragon fell silent after that, looking away from his friend as he barely held back more tears.
“You want a hug?” Garble asked as he opened up his arms. “If you think it’d help you feel better.”
Fizzle was quick to respond, quickly darting into the other dragon’s embrace and hooking his arms around him. Garble was taken aback a bit by the sudden movement, but regardlessly closed his arms around the other dragon’s back. Hugging wasn’t normally his thing and this one in particular seemed to go on just a little bit too long.
“I’m your friend, Fizz,” Garble started, “if you wanna wear diapers and use them then it’s fine by me.”
Little whimpers slipped out of Fizzle as he found some comfort in his friend’s embrace. “Th-thanks Garble,” he answered back, his voice quivering a bit. He leaned further into the hug, practically curling up in Garble’s arms.
During their friendship hug, Garble couldn’t help but steal a glance down at Fizzle’s diaper. From the back, he got a whole different view on the garment. The firm mess inside had propped the back part open, allowing more of the foul odor to seep out of it. And with Garble’s head hanging over Fizzle’s shoulder, he got the full brunt of the stench.
“And uhm...Fizz...” Garble started to say, doing his best not to gag, “you still need a change. Badly.”
