“It’s okay. No need to say sorry” he told her. He felt anger towards her previous family for treating her badly. Poor Aurora, she deserved better than that. Castile stayed in one place and kept making bubbles for her, smiling, first as he watched Aurora watch the bubbles, then as she ran around and played with them. His tail raised in the air and his whiskers splayed forwards as he smiled, glad to see someone enjoying his magic bubbles. Just generating bubbles didn’t take up too much magic, so he could do it without getting tired. Other spells were more powerful. The room smelled amazing now, the sweet scent reminding him of scented kids’ toys and playtime with his own kids. Aurora looked like she was having fun, carefree and happy. He would stop and let her take a break if she got tired or out of breath. He didn’t mind if the other kids joined in too. "Wow, you popped so many bubbles!" he called to Aurora with a grin. "You're really good at this!" =============== Lily saw Tanya pull out her phone and call a nurse. She didn’t think they’d need one just for something like a cold but she guessed it made sense for someone with medical knowledge to check him out. “Oh okay. They’ll have thermometers and medicine then” she nodded, listening to Tanya. She got up and grabbed a box of tissues from a kids' table, walking back over to kneel beside the sick kid and offering him the box, placing it on the floor next to him “Here, Sammy. When your nose is running, blow or wipe your nose on tissues, not onto your clothes or hands” she told him. “That way you don’t spread germs”

Hey there RP forum, Literate rp search here! I'm looking for rp partners who would get into the fandom/Comics of Momma CQ (a comic by Alaina Prana on Patreon and DeviantArt) with me, so we can do an rp where the kids end up regressed to baby states and we can rp the adults caretaking them/babying them in a cute slice of life, drama and family rp. I have a Google doc with some plot typed up that I can share. If you're interested in getting into this wonderful story and falling in love with the characters like I have, I would be so grateful! Sans Comic TV on YouTube has voice dubbed some of the comics on their channel. Here's the link to the beginning: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Da_6gaPbR68&ab_channel=SansComicTV However, for unknown reasons, they never finished said dub, only going to the end of part 5. BUT - you can read the rest of the comic at the author's DeviantArt page. Here's the first page of part 6! And after that, there's some mini comics as well. https://www.deviantart.com/alainaprana/art/MommaCQ-Part-6-Cover-844807423 Once you've watched/read the entire thing, and if you enjoyed it, then I'd absolutely love an rp partner/s to come rp this family story with me! I'd like to play Fresh and Uncle Asy personally but I'm open for other people to play the rest of the characters. I can also rp more than just Fresh and Asy if needed. Quote me here to get my attention if you're into this. Or PM me, I'm always checking my mail.

Lily sighed as her questions went ignored. It was going to be harder than she thought to build a bond with this child. But she wouldn’t give up. She knew it would take quite a bit of time and a lot of patience. She was immediately concerned when she saw the boy set his statue thing down and start coughing, only to sniff and wipe his runny nose on his sleeve. Seemed like the beginning of a cold. “Are you feeling okay, Sammy? You seem like you might be coming down with a little cold” she mentioned, reaching to feel his forehead with one of her lovely cool hands. “Hmm…” she waited, trying to gauge his temperature compared to hers. She looked at Tanya, “Tanya, what do we do when a child is sick?” she asked, “Do we have a first aid kit or thermometer?”

Her giggles were cute, he thought. He was happy her nap was good. Sometimes you could wake up from them feeling more out of sorts than when you went down, wondering what time and day it was now. Maybe that was more of an adult problem. He smiled as she snuggled up to him, being adorable. He wasn’t surprised that she wanted to play more. Even adults wanted to do entertaining things in their free time. Castile apologised when she blushed and tried to hide while he checked her diaper. “Sorry, Hun. You’ll have to get used to diaper checks here” he told her. “It’s okay to wear and use diapers. But the carers need to check to see when they need to be changed” he informed her “We wouldn’t want you to get a rash or spring a leak” he said with amusement. Castile carried her back to the nursery, patting himself on the back for memorising the way and not getting lost. He’d studied the map of the mansion while Aurora slept as well. Once they were back, he let Aurora choose what she wanted to do. Her answer made him grin. “Bubbles? Okay, bubbles it is! Get ready…here they coooome!” He moved back a short distance from the girl and then put his palms out and concentrated. Immediately a stream of bubbles of various sizes streamed out of his hands, floating around Aurora and spreading throughout the nursery. A sweet tutti frutti scent came with them and the bubbles shimmered with rainbow swirls in the light. The bubble solution he created was a 'no tears' version. Even if a bubble got in your eye, it wouldn’t sting. Castile watched to see what Aurora would do. Pop them, dance with them, try to catch one? He was curious to see if the other kids would react to them as well. "Oh no, bubbles everywheeeere! What are you gonna do?!" he playfully called out. ========================= Lily watched as Samuel built using Lego, seeing him make what she guessed was a car and then some kind of building (A house? Garage? Restaurant?) . He played with them like most children did, which was expected. Some kids had unique ways of doing things, like sorting the blocks into type or colour. She always found that interesting. “That looks good, Samuel. Can you tell me about what you’re making?” she asked, curious and wanting to get him engaged and talking. She watched the blue rose bubble float just above his right shoulder as he played. She really liked Castile’s magic. Kind of an oddly specific branch to have. “Do you mind if I play?” she asked. Lily started to build a car with the Lego. She thought maybe they could race them or drive them around on the play mat with the roads and buildings on it. The frog lady heard Milly’s short reply to her explanations. “So, do you like the idea of witches with magic powers, who have familiars?” she asked Milly. “Or do you prefer to play other things with your stuffies? Maybe tea party or a teddy bears' picnic?” She just wanted to get the girl talking. She wasn’t trying to bother her. Just...wanted to get to know her better, find out what she liked. She wanted to build a relationship with all these kids. And she was sure Castile did too. It was their job. Lily saw Mitch making spaceships. “Wow, cool spaceships, Mitch! You’re good with Lego” she called to him. “Are they going to explore space and find new planets?”

She wasn’t sucking her thumb due to boredom but as a means of comforting herself since she felt anxious. Although after a while, it did get boring sitting there waiting for the treatment to finish. She quietly accepted the pacifier and rattle the salon staff brought her. “Tank oo” she said, before putting the paci in her mouth, taking the rattle and idly playing with it. She liked the colour of the pacifier, as well as the pretty flower on its shield. She wanted to see if she could keep it. It was spring right now and it suited the season well. Usagi thought about the cherry blossom viewing parties that must be going on now. She wanted to go with her college friends before she was reformed but now she felt like she would have to miss out. What activities did little ones do during the spring? There was the Western holiday; Easter. That might be fun. She didn’t know much about it. Normally during Spring, people in Japan decorated their homes and themselves to match the season, and activities varied. There were cherry blossom viewing parties with a picnic and booze, and sometimes karaoke machine, there was strawberry picking for families and school field trips, there were several spring festivals around for different kami and reasons, people often made trips to historical castles, temples or shrines, visiting onsen was popular, as was going camping near lakes and waterfalls, there was Earth Day where people were mindful of the environment and eco friendly practices. And then there were websites and books listing activities for little ones to enjoy over the spring season. Like playing in the rain or having a rain themed party. Hunting for frogs. Making and flying kites. Usagi decided, thinking about all this stuff while she was getting her treatment, that she wanted to try the Western holiday Easter. But also do some of the other stuff on that list. While she thought, she continued to lazily play with the rattle, which made a soft musical sound when it was shaken. Before she knew it, the procedure was over. She was so embarrassed when she was picked up by Maddison that she nearly dropped her rattle in shock, her clumsy reflexes managing to grab hold of it again just in time. Usagi tried to hide behind the rattle, covering her face with it as she continued blushing while Maddison spared her some kind words. She lowered the toy, and mumbled thank you to the woman, despite not being able to look her in the eyes. I’m just a baby. I’m innocent. She thought. There’s nothing to hide. She then gasped and squealed when Maddison surprised her by patting her bare bottom. “Eek!” When they came into the room with the warm bath, she couldn’t wait to get in it. Her skin was feeling some kind of stinging or burning sensation now and she wanted to soothe it. Plus the water would let her hide. She sighed as she was lowered into the delightful warm water, but blushed some more when she was held like a baby on her back. “Um…Maddi? I can bathe by my ownself” she told her. “You don’t hab to stwain youw back to help mwe” She remembered Chibiusa was coming with Rei, Ami and Minako soon and prayed they wouldn’t arrive till after her hair was done. She didn't want them to see her in the bath. Maddi ignored her and talked nicely with her. “Well…dat’s twue. I’ve neba had a miwk bath befowe. Oh…” She realised she would have to be extra careful not to hurt herself if her skin was going to be so soft and fragile. She felt as delicate as a flower. Usagi sucked her flower pacifier to try and calm down about the idea. She didn’t like being made into someone so weak. But it was too late. They already did laser treatment and put her into the strange milk water. Usagi was a big crybaby if she ever got hurt. A bruise or cut would upset her. Usagi stared out the window at the flowering garden and let her mind drift. She was so relaxed in the warm water, and Maddi’s touches were very soothing. She began to fall asleep. Warm steam drifted around her, wrapping around her like a blanket. “Mmm” She sighed, letting her stress melt away. Troubles and worries dissolved in the warm bath tub. Usagi fought the urge to sleep and blinked heavily, trying to shake it away “Mwe sweepy” she told Maddison, “Betta get owt befowe I fall asleep” She didn’t wanna drown in the tub, that’s for sure.

Lily looked at where Samuel was pointing. She got up and got the box of Lego, placing it in front of him. “Here you go” she smiled, sitting back down on the carpet with her legs criss crossed. “The good thing about Lego is they stick together, so it’s much harder to knock them over,” she commented, watching to see what the boy would make. There was a small pamphlet in the box with the new Lego bricks that gave step by step pictures with instructions on how to build different things. If Samuel was stuck for ideas, he could look through that with Lily. Lily heard Milly’s reply and looked towards the girl again, “Oh, well, frogs and toads are related, like we are in the same family” she explained, then realised the girl was referring to her talk about witches and familiars. “Oh! Well, hmm…how to explain? Well, a witch is a female person with magical powers. They cast magic spells, can make potions and can do all sorts of things using magic, like flying around on a broomstick” she said, trying to make it simple to understand, “Most witches have animal companions or friends that are like pets. But these pets are much smarter than normal animals and they help the witch with her tasks. They are basically the witch’s friendly helpers. Even if you don’t have magic powers you can still make believe that you’re a witch and your plushies are your familiars” she said. She glanced across the room to see what Mitch was making with his Lego. ================= Castile quietly read and watched videos at low volume while Aurora slept, using the tablet work gave him. He watched her in case she started to have a nightmare but thankfully her dreams must have been normal. At one point she gave a soft sigh and at times he even thought he saw a small smile on her face. He eventually heard the girl stirring awake so he put his tablet away and looked up when she said hi to him. Castile got to his paws with a smile and quietly unlatched the side of the crib, lowering the bars. “Hi, welcome back to the land of the waking, Sweetheart” he greeted her happily, picking her up and tidying her hair a bit with gentle touches. “Was that a good nap? You seem to have more energy now” he stated, happy that she was feeling better. “Are you ready to play some more? The other kids are still in the nursery, I think, so we can just go back there and join them. Miss Lily and Ms Tanya are there too. Let me just check your diaper” Castile stuck two fingers in the leg hole of her onesie and diaper and felt it was a little damp but could probably hold another wetting. “Just a little wet. Not too bad. I think the diaper can take more. They make them super absorbent these days. Anyway, let’s go back!” Castile cleaned his fingers with a wipe from a pack of wet wipes he’d found in the nursery near the changing tables and had put in one of his uniform pockets. He then took Aurora back to the nursery and walked around to see what the other kids were doing. “We’re back, everyone. How are you all? Aurora, do you want to play with one of the other children, or do you want bubbles now?” he offered the girl, placing her down on the ground. The princess castle and other stuff they made was still set up if she wanted to go play with that too. Castile saw what each person was doing. Mitch was building with Legos, Milly was surrounded by various plush animals in a circle, Samuel and Lily also had Legos. And Tanya was humming a song woven with ancient magic that made people feel energised. Okay, great. With her doing that, no one else would need a nap.

Usagi pouted at what Eiko told Maddison but was soon cringing at what was whispered into her ear. She felt a cold chill run down her spine at Eiko’s words and tone. She was scary when mad. She looked at Maddison and peeped a demure “Sowwy” to the woman, glancing at Eiko for approval. Please don’t punish me, her eyes pleaded. Usagi continued to frown and look put out when Maddison again called her speech stupid babble, brushing it off as nothing. She almost wanted to cry. Why was life so hard? Usagi bit her lip and closed her eyes to hold back tears, then took a few calming breaths to steady her emotions. Her eyes went wide and startled when Maddison announced the laser hair removal. “Ah!” she exclaimed softly, clutching her hands to herself with fear. The milk bath sounded nice but she was afraid the hair removal would hurt. “W-w-will dat huwt?” she asked softly. She clung onto Rachel tightly as the woman began to follow the others, taking her through the salon to the treatment rooms. They had a variety for different treatments and to accommodate all their customers. This was a popular salon. Usagi looked around the treatment room she was brought into, seeing it was very clean and tidy. She was laid on a chair and had her diaper removed. Usagi blushed, always embarrassed about being naked in front of anyone new. She tried to cover herself with her hands, one arm across her small breasts. “Eep” Maddison tried to reassure her. Her words did help Usagi feel more comfortable. She relaxed a bit more, letting her arm drop to her side, though she still tried to cover her diaper area. She smiled in relief when reassured that it was painless. “Okay…” Usagi looked at the medical style chair she was laid on, which had disposable paper coverings that could be changed after each client. She sat stiffly, unsure what to expect first, her back straight. Her thumb went into her mouth, helping keep her calm and proving how little she had become. Usagi shook her head at the mention of being tied up “Nu, nu, ah bwe gud!” she promised hastily. That was the last thing she wanted. She nodded about the gel, smiling around her thumb “Tank oo Missh Maddishon” The girl tried hard not to wriggle, a few giggles slipping from her lips as the gel was applied. It was ticklish in some areas. Usagi lay back and tried to relax, sucking her thumb and looking around the ceiling and walls. She was glad not to feel any pain. When she thought about never having to shave again, it put her in a good mood. Usagi obediently offered her left leg after the right was done, but blushed and made soft embarrassed coos when it came to her more private areas. She tried to be as good as gold throughout the entire procedure. Usagi sat up once it was over, seeing that her skin was turning pink and red. “Otay. Ah!” She let out a small cry as Maddison picked her up, turning red as a tomato. Her naked body was pressed against the other woman, a stranger who carried her without a second thought. “Baff, baff” she mumbled, sucking her thumb more. She said the word to try and calm and reassure herself. Soon she would be in the water and covered up to her neck. Having soft skin sounded very good to her. When she saw the bath tub, it was in a beautiful tiled room with pretty pictures on the walls and a view out of a window looking over the flower garden. “Wow” she breathed “Pwetty!” Floating on the milk coloured water were rose petals. Usagi began to feel some stinging sensation on her body from the treatment. She couldn’t wait to get in the water, reaching a hand towards it. “Baff, baff, baff, baff!”

Lily saw Mitch get some Lego out and begin playing with it. She wondered what he was making. She hoped that younger babies wouldn’t be able to choke on the pieces. She would have felt it was safer in the nursery to have Lego Duplo - the bigger sized blocks for babies and toddlers. She looked at Milly once more, turning her head towards her. The girl had an odd assortment of plush characters surrounding her. You didn’t normally see billygoat stuffies and blue was a surprising colour for one. Or toads. Toads and frogs were kind of similar, Lily thought. Like cousins or relatives. She looked over them all, taking them in. “I can see that. Those are some very different looking stuffies. It’s okay to like things that are different or even strange. My favourite is the pink toad, because I feel like he’s my cousin” she explained, giggling softly. “Those plushies make me think of you as a witch with her familiars. Do you like that idea? Do you know what familiars are?” Tanya’s humming continued at the edge of her awareness, so focused was she on the kids. But it was still giving them all an energy boost.

((Go ahead. I don’t mind)) Usagi sang the best she could. She was embarrassed that she couldn’t get the words of the childrens’ songs right but it had been a long time since she listened to them all and she forgot the lyrics, stumbling over the words or singing them wrong. Usagi didn’t believe Eiko about the party she was planning at first, until she mentioned getting a clown and inviting college aged friends as well. That definitely sounded better than being laughed at by Chibiusa and her little friends. “Dat sounds gud” the girl replied, some of her dark clouds lifting, clearing the way for a bit of positive light to shine through. Being the centre of everyone’s attention sounded appealing. And she loved getting gifts. She hoped there were a lot of toys. Once the car was parked, Usagi felt more nervous. She leaned into Rachel for comfort and sucked her pacifier to calm herself down. She saw Eiko over Rachel’s shoulder, carrying her big diaper bag. It had to be big to fit diapers for the big baby. Usagi felt the cottony padding of her diaper be pressed against her as her mom held her under her bottom. It was kinda soothing along with her paci. Usagi giggled when they encountered the revolving doors. These doors were fun! She hardly saw them in most buildings. It was fun to watch people going through or to walk through them oneself. Though sometimes children played and got their fingers caught in the gaps. When Maddison approached the three women, Usagi grabbed onto her long hair, holding it close to her chest as though it were as precious as real gold. She watched the woman talk to Eiko, trying to hide her face to avoid her attention. Maddison switched her focus to the adult baby though, talking to Usagi. She blushed at the compliments, defensively clutching her hair. She didn’t want it cut off. “I..I’m alweady a pwincess. Da moon pwincess” she stated softly, mumbling her words. She couldn’t help a burst of giggles when she was tickled under the chin, kicking her legs and squirming in Rachel’s hold as her paci fell out. “Ahh! Hee hee ha ha! S-stop!” The moon princess tried to lean away from Maddison, “I don’ twust you” she told her rudely with a suspicious look on her face. “Why shud I gib you mwy haiw? Dis haiw ish mwy pwide an joy. You can’t hab it” Rachel hissed shushing noises at her daughter, tapping her on the bum in a light smack. “Sst! Hush Usagi. This is going to be a lovely hair style. Long hair like yours is too much for a little baby to handle. You will get food and paint in it, plus it’s messy and hard to brush now. You may even get such long hair wrapped around your neck as a choking hazard. Us mommies know what we’re doing! So hush and let us do this” She looked at Maddison, apologetic and smiling “I’m sorry about her. She’s just anxious about the new hairstyle since she hasn’t seen the design we picked yet. I’m sure she’ll love it when it’s complete though. Please ignore her and continue with the plan. Babies don’t get a say in these decisions” she gave a meaningful stare to her daughter, making the girl gulp and shrink into herself. “Y-y-yes mommy” she stammered in a whisper. She hardly ever saw Rachel mad at her. That was scary. Rachel took Usagi to the changing room and began to undress her, removing her onesie and the headband with a bow. She put them in her bag to dress her again later. Rachel brought Usagi back out, who was trying to cover her bare breasts. She looked at Maddison. “Hmm…I think since she’s already stripped down, we should do the beauty treatments first. Laser depilation and a milk spa bath were on the agenda” she listed. “Please direct us which room to go to”

((I didn't see the word premonition anywhere. And it was not clear that she was thinking about her future. I think it must be a translation error. Also, you wrote actions for Elsa again. Please try not to control or write for my character. I was going to have her put Anna on the big horses first and then afterwards, breastfeed Anna somewhere different and get herself a drink and snack at the same time…but you already wrote it for me. Stop doing that, it gets really frustrating. Now I have to change what I was going to write)) Elsa ignored Anna’s pleas for a bottle and forced her to breastfeed in view of everyone, adults and children alike. She didn’t even cover her breasts and the baby with a baby blanket from the diaper bag. She’d been going to do that but it must have slipped her mind. Apparently, once she saw that bench, she decided to plop her butt down and feed Anna then and there. The bench was in a convenient spot, after all. Nothing wrong with topping up the baby between activities. Elsa was kind of thirsty and beginning to feel peckish, as breastfeeding made a person need more fluids and food due to all the nutrients and liquid going towards the milk production. But she would put aside her needs for now. Anna wanted to go on the big horsies and Elsa was going to let her. She led Anna, letting her walk for some reason, back over to the plastic baby carriage with the fake pony on it. She nudged Olaf awake, somewhat annoyed with the snowman. “Olaf, you’re supposed to stay awake to make sure no one takes the baby carriage and diaper bag. What are you doing taking naps?” she laughed a bit, shaking her head. “Silly snowman. At least no harm was done. Everything is still here” she said, checking over them before watching Anna clamber back into her embarrassing baby’s transport. “Good girl, Anna. Getting back into the baby carriage all on your own! Clever baby” she clapped for her. Elsa looked surprised when Anna told her she wanted to see the ducks and chickens. “What? So now you don’t want to ride the big horses with me on the obstacle course? Well, okay then. It’s your decision. We’ll go see ducks and chickens. And then we’ll visit the cafe. I’m getting thirsty and in the mood for a snack” she told Anna. She began to pull the toy carriage along with Anna inside, while Olaf carried the diaper bag and walked beside her. “I’m sorry Elsa, I was only going to take a quick doze, but it was so peaceful and the air was so fresh here. I accidentally fell asleep all the way” he apologised. He looked and saw that Anna had a plush toy, one that looked like a frog. It matched her green overalls with the frog footprints on the front. Her diaper wasn’t that noticeable yet but after drinking Elsa’s milk, she’d probably wet it even more so it puffed up and then people would be able to tell. They rumbled along the pebbled concrete path and eventually got to the fenced in paddock with the ducks and chickens. There were quaint hen houses painted in pastel spring colours with ramps leading up to them, looking very clean and cutely as though they were miniature houses for people. Ducks and chickens of all different types roamed around the green grass and there was a pond for them to swim and find food as well. Some people were feeding the ducks and chickens, giving them small pellets handed out by the keepers. Baby chicks and ducklings followed their mothers around, peeping and fluffy. Both were yellow fuzz balls, though it was easier to tell them apart because the chicks were smaller and the ducklings had small flat bills instead of beaks. “Do you want to feed the chickens and ducks, Anna? We can even pet and hold them” she said. “Look, over there, a chicken is doing tricks with the keepers!” She pointed to an area where chickens were picking up objects and placing them correctly, or doing small tricks. “Wow, so many kinds of birds. There are fluffy chickens and rainbow ducks” she commented. “They must breed them specially to get exotic kinds”

((Sorry for the wait. Sometimes I get a little overwhelmed with all the rps I'm in. It can take me a while to post)) Lily watched Samuel carefully stack each block, balancing them so the whole project stood without falling. She noticed him trembling and hoped that eventually, he’d become so used to and comfortable with her and the others here that they’d feel like family and he wouldn’t be so scared any more. She waited patiently for his answer, a small smile on her lips. She didn’t push him or try to rush him. Lily leaned forwards and down towards Samuel so she could hear his soft answer better. She sat back up and smiled brightly “Yes, that’s right! It’s blue. Clever boy, knowing the answer. Great job” she clapped softly, her hands barely making a sound. She watched him attempt to stack the final block but knock into the tower instead, sending it crashing down in seconds. Foam blocks tumbled around them, falling randomly. At least there was no chance of sustaining any bumps or bruises from the soft material. “Uh oh, all fall down!” she stated, noticing how Samuel began to tear up afterwards. “Aw, Samuel, it’s okay. I know you didn’t mean to knock it over. You worked hard on it. It was a good tower. You can make another one if you want to. Or you can play something else. That’s part of the fun of blocks; you can always knock them down and make all kinds of new things” she said, trying to help him feel better as she reached out and rubbed his back lightly. “Do you want a hug?” she offered. “What would help you feel better right now? I could help you build a new tower. Or we can do something else. There’s lots of toys in here” She giggled at Mitch’s reply to her words as she sat beside Samuel. “Of course. You don’t have to think about it now. You can choose to be whatever you want” she told him. He didn’t have to work with animals but he did seem to like them a lot or why else would he have so many kigurumis? It was kind of funny that that’s all he chose. No normal kinds of outfits. As for Milly, the girl seemed perfectly happy interacting with her plushies on her own. Lily didn’t want her to feel bored or alone though, so she would check on her from time to time as well. “What’s your favourite kind of stuffy?” she asked Milly, looking at the ones she was playing with. Lily didn’t receive a reply from Tanya about whether she needed help, so Lily assumed Tanya had everything covered. She was content to let the older, more experienced woman watch two of the kids while she spent some one on one time with Samuel. He seemed to need a lot of attention right now, since it was early days for him and he would be on his own otherwise. Lily began to feel more energised when Tanya started humming. It must be a magic melody. Seemed like the other kids wouldn't be needing naps for a while. ================ There seemed to be various designs for the cribs in here. He noticed Aurora’s gaze stick on the one that was forest themed, looking at it when she pointed. Realistic and vibrant green leaves and plants were painted over the black background. It was like the crib was plucked straight out of a fantasy forest. While he got her to try out the padded rocking chair and read her a story, he watched her drink her bottle, seeing that she grew sleepier with every passing minute. His little plan seemed to be working. Castile kept reading the book until the end, looking up only to see the girl sleeping. He snickered quietly to himself. He hadn’t even noticed when she’d fallen asleep. Castile then very gently stopped rocking the chair and scooped Aurora up, trying not to wake her. He carried her to the forest crib and pulled back the blanket and top sheet, laying her in it slowly and gently. Castile lightly covered her back up before raising the side of it, locking it in place. He curled up on the floor beside the crib and started reading more of the staff guidebook, trying to memorise everything he could. Castile purred at a low volume, hoping it would comfort the child as she dreamed.

((Anna’s only been a baby for a couple of days. It hasn’t been that long, 2-3 at the max)) Elsa watched as the white childrens’ pony took Anna around the meadow, stamping through grass sprinkled with clover and dandelions, being watched by all the people outside the fence; parents and other children of the ones riding. People were taking pictures and videos, especially of the princess. The keeper listened to Anna's complaints. “That’s not up to me, Princess Anna. Talk to your big sister. Maybe if you’re good, she’ll let you ride the big horses. I thought you were best friends with Starlight. You want to leave her so quickly!” she replied, leading Starlight around the corner of the intersection between the fences. There was a circular path worn in the paddock from where all the ponies were led around, walking the same track in one direction or another. Small toddlers rode the other ponies, anywhere from 2 to elementary ages. There were even some babies with their parents or older siblings seated behind them, holding them so they wouldn’t fall. Anna was lucky Elsa hadn’t decided to accompany her this time, giving her a little freedom for good behaviour so far. The keeper finished leading Starlight the rest of the way until the pony came to a halt near the mounting post. The keeper tied her lead rope to the hitching post and began to pet the pony, thanking her and praising her “Good job, Starlight, you did so well. Now you can rest for a while and chew the spring grass” she said, patting the pony’s neck. Starlight wasted no time in lowering her head to the grass and beginning to tug tufts of green blades into her mouth, munching contentedly. Meanwhile, Elsa stepped up and lifted Anna off the saddle, reaching to squeeze her padded rear, a quick diaper check to see how the padding was faring. “Just a bit damp,” she remarked softly. No need for a change yet. She’d breastfeed Anna first before changing her then. She heard Anna’s comments as she shifted the girl onto her hip to carry her better, about to reply when Anna cut in with a complaint. “Hush, Anna. Diaper checks are perfectly normal for babies such as you. I need to make sure you don’t leak or need a change. No one cares and too bad if they do; it doesn’t matter what others think of you. Their opinions don’t matter” she told her with a calm tone, like she was speaking to a small infant that didn’t understand. “I am your caregiver and I know what I’m doing. Don’t argue with me” she warned. Elsa began to walk with Anna back out of the paddock, towards where Olaf waited with the baby carriage and diaper bag. “So, you complain and yet you want me to allow you to do something for adults. Hmm…I might make a compromise if you promise to be good until we get home” she considered, placing the option before Anna. “I will sit on the horse with you and a keeper can lead the horse through the course at a trot” she stated. “Any more than that is too much for a little baby. After this, we are going to take a break before looking at the rest of the animals”

((This is what she’s wearing. I forgot to attach the image to my last post:)) ‘It’s not like it’s hard’ Usagi thought sarcastically, clamping her lips tight. Usagi frowned at Eiko’s words, crossing her arms and making grumbling noises but she was careful not to say anything, knowing it would just get her in trouble. It wasn’t fair that her opinions weren’t even considered these days. Babies were so powerless. They couldn’t control anything, or have a say or choice in anything either. Except by their reactions to things, such as crying, laughing and smiling or temper tantrums. If she couldn’t talk, she might have to revert to those. She watched Eiko hug her daughter ‘sister’ before she left, then her mouth fell open at what Eiko said. “Baby showa?” she murmured nervously. Oh great, she was going to be the entertainment for an elementary student and all her little friends. How demeaning. But didn’t parties like that usually have cake and goodies? Presents? Maybe that would make up for the circumstances. Once Usagi was situated in the car, she watched Eiko adjust her car seat, making it more comfortable. She saw the new CDs that Eiko brought, all kiddy tunes and nursery rhymes for little ones. Maybe the cheerful songs would improve her mood. She was feeling somewhat bitter after what was said and done in the kitchen. As the first song began to play, Usagi looked out the window at the springtime flowers and surroundings and began to smile, focusing vaguely on the song lyrics and melody. That’s when Eiko told her to sing. Usagi grumbled but began to sing, trying to get the words right but making mistakes. This only made her seem cuter though. They soon arrived at the salon and Usagi’s mommy Rachel got her out of the car seat, carrying the girl on her hip. That was going to be much harder once Usagi gained weight due to Eiko’s medicine. She put her pacifier in her mouth to keep herself calm and prevent from saying anything to make either mommy mad as they approached the building. Anxious butterflies swirled in her tummy. What if the hair style they chose made her look silly or she didn’t like it? There was nothing she could do. She knew she had already decided to trust her parents but she couldn’t help having second thoughts.

Lily watched Samuel move a small distance from the table, avoiding going near the other two children. She saw him choose a bucket of foam blocks and glanced up from her iPad every now and then to keep tabs on him. Once she was finished, she, of course, got up and walked around to see what all the kids were doing. She asked if anyone wanted her to help them and if Tanya had something for her to do. Her attention was mainly back on Samuel though because he seemed isolated, even though he was acting content right now. Lily looked at the stacks of foam blocks he had made and decided to try to engage him a bit “That looks interesting, Samuel. What are you making there?” she asked, crouching to be closer to his eye level. “Do you know your shapes and colours yet? What’s this colour?” she asked, reaching out to gently tap a blue foam block. “It’s the same as your rare rose” ((Or not XD))

((I'll reply with Lily once Doorset posts Milly, Mitch and Tanya's replies)) He saw the little girl looking around the room. “It looks peaceful, doesn’t it? And there are lots of comfy beds, all different kinds. I love the star lights they put in the ceiling and walls. They are so pretty. It’s like floating in the night sky” he said, tail slowly swishing to and fro as he looked around the room, walking in a big circle as he craned his head to view the walls and ceiling. He stepped further inside after that, walking around to look at the toddler beds, then the different kinds of cribs and finally, the bassinets for the smallest babies. “Hmm….which do you think would be the most comfortable? The toddler beds, the cribs or the bassinets? Maybe we should try them out to see which is best” he told Aurora. He then pointed to the rocking chair “But first, we have to do the nap time routine and see if it’s good enough to put kids to sleep. Let’s try a rocking chair and I’ll read you a picture book. You can try one of the bottles and tell me about how the formula tastes” he told her, going over to the crib and bassinet area. He let Aurora pick a book from the low shelves around the room, then placed the girl in the padded rocking recliner chair and covered her with a quilted lap blanket for babies. He sat beside the chair and used a big paw to make it rock. He grabbed a bottle from the mini fridge and put it into the warmer, then took the book and opened it with his human hands, beginning to read it to the girl, showing her the pictures. “Cat Nap by Toni Yuly” he started, beginning to read slowly. As he read, he kept an eye on the warmer, grabbing the milk after a minute and testing it on his wrist. Castile handed the bottle to Aurora as he wiped his wrist on his uniform. “Will you tell me how this tastes?,” he asked her. "You can be the bottle tester" Glancing around, he saw a music player on a shelf above the cribs and realised he could put some music on. There was also an air purifier and a white noise generator.

“I could do mwy haiw if I wanted to! If I was allowed to,'' Usagi told Chibiusa, “You onwy know how to do that hairstyle because Mom and I showed you a hundwed times. I don’t even want a haiw cut today, I’m just allowing it to make evewyone ewse happy” she told her. “Besides, youw still a child in elementary school, no mattew how big you fink you awe wiff awl youw sponsitilities and my woom and stuff” she reminded the bratty girl. “Don’t get too cocky” Usagi warned her “Dere’s onwy so much teasing I can take. Evewyone has their wimits. Pway nice or I’wl pway naughty” ================ “Mmmh” Rachel murmured, uncertain of the outcome of Eiko’s weight gain plan. “If you say so, Dear. If she gives you any difficulty, I’ll support you” she said. She relaxed as she was hugged, turning to peck her girlfriend’s lips sweetly after her cheek kiss. “Okay, I trust you, my love” Rachel smiled when Eiko said she would take on breastfeeding duties “All right, if that’s what you want, then I’m fine with it” She watched her swallow one of the pills. “I only took pills to breastfeed my granddaughter as a comfort and bonding thing when she first arrived here. Remember, she is actually Usagi’s daughter from the future and not my second child” she reminded Eiko. “But I wish the best for you and Usagi to bond well and grow closer to each other. I think Usagi still sees you as her teacher sometimes rather than a second mother” Rachel looked into the dining area from the kitchen and saw Chibiusa wiping Usagi’s mouth. The chocolate mousse cup was empty. She smiled, watching Eiko walk over to talk to the girls. ================== Chibiusa was going to argue back but just as Usagi got done saying her piece, Eiko walked up and told her how good a big sister she was and that it was time for school. Chibiusa sighed a bit and took the hand me down phone she got from the baby to check the time “Oh gosh, you’re right. I don’t want to be late. My attendance record must stay perfect!” she looked at Usagi with a frown “Goodbye Usagi. The baby who’s not in school anymore. I’ll do better at school than you when you were in college. Ha ha! So there” she told her, poking her tongue out “Behave or I’ll tell Miss Eiko what you said to me” she warned her. “Don’t be a fussy troublemaker right after getting a reward. Otherwise you’ll get a punishment instead” she told her snottily. “I might even give Miss Eiko ideas” she sneered, raising her nose in the air. “Hmph” Chibiusa took the piece of paper Eiko gave her and studied it before folding it and putting it in her shirt pocket. “Okay. I can find my way there easily. Yay, I get to find Usagi’s college mates. It will be super easy for me. I won’t let you down” she promised, crossing her fingers for good luck. “Rei, Ami and Minako are my friends now” she grinned, saying it just to annoy her sister. She checked the message on her phone then trotted off to grab her backpack and began to head to school, using a small bicycle that used to belong to Usagi. She met up with friends along the way to school, telling them about the big baby. =================== Rachel nodded, “All right! I’m on it” she stated, going to wipe Usagi down and let her out of the highchair. She shifted her up on her hip, Usagi’s long legs clamped around her waist. She paused while carrying her babyish daughter, looking at Mamoru as he got up from his seat. Rachel laughed softly “Okay, okay, that’s understandable. I wish you well in meeting your friends. Of course, do come see her new hair cut and style before you go. I know it means a lot to Usagi. And I think it will give you a happy memory to hold on the flight back overseas” she smiled at him. Rachel started to carry Usagi out of the kitchen and down the hallway towards the bedrooms. “Did you hear that baby? He’s going to get a surprise for you!” she cooed with over enthusiasm to her daughter. ============== “Suwpwise? Yay!” Usagi grinned. She was starting to get sad that he’d rather go see friends instead of spend the last time he had with her, but she knew his other friends were important to him too. Besides, he promised he’d come see her makeover and bring a surprise. That was enough to tide her over till later. She looked around her nursery as her mom brought her into it and laid her on the changing table. The t-shirt was gently removed and then she was being checked, her diaper only slightly wet, before she was dressed in some new clothes. It was a romper with pictures of Peter Rabit in oval frames wreathed with leaves. There were snaps in the crotch as well as ruffles across the bottom in different shades of white and blue. White dots on a pale beige background decorated the material of the front panel. Two pale blue straps formed the shoulders. And there was a headband with a matching blue bow. Rachel attached a bunny pacifier on a lanyard that was also Peter Rabbit themed. Once she was dressed, Rachel gathered the diaper bag and brought Usagi out to the car, buckling her into her car seat. She put the diaper bag on the seat next to Usagi and then got in the front passenger seat to wait for Eiko.

It wasn’t calculated by diaper usage. Anna would only be a baby until Elsa had gathered enough happy memories together during her second infancy. All she had to do was behave and obey what she was told. The harder she tried to fight back and resist, the longer she’d stay infantilised. So she just had to go with it and try to be a good baby girl. However, the chances of that happening for more than a few hours at a time were probably very slim. It would depend on whether Elsa’s treatments would recondition Anna’s behaviour to something favourable over time, or whether Anna would seal her own fate by being a rebellious and contrary brat. If that happened, she might just be stuck as a baby forever. Elsa planned to potty train Anna once her babyhood was over, before letting her go back to her big girl life. But only if she got what she wanted out of this whole thing. Elsa heard Anna’s curse, but since she’d already told her what she had to do before Elsa would let her ‘grow up’, she saw no point in commenting on her complaint. She thought Anna’s whimpers and rubbing her eyes made her look just like a sweet baby and smiled to herself. Elsa didn’t notice Anna wetting her diaper since it was hidden under a pair of dark green frog overalls on top of a light green onesie. But after the ponies, she would take Anna for a diaper change and some breastfeeding, along with maybe a snack. There were restrooms here with changing facilities and she was sure Anna was light enough to fit on them. “That was during your big girl days. You’re still a baby right now, remember” Elsa reminded her sister as Anna tried to refuse her sister’s help. Elsa was having none of it, picking up Anna before she could argue any further and planting her bum firmly on the saddle. She put the dummy in Anna’s mouth to stop her complaints and guided the reins into Anna’s hands, then onto the pommel. She gave instruction to the keeper to let Anna go no faster than a trot. Elsa waved them off while the woman nodded and began to walk the pony with the lead rope, falling in line in the loose circle of other ponies rounding the outer edges of the paddock. When Anna began kicking the pony, Starlight began to trot, but the keeper pulled on the rope to prevent her going any faster. She would run right into the rear of the pony ahead of them otherwise. “That’s enough, Anna, you’ll make Starlight get too close to the pony in front. I’ll let you trot for a bit but that’s as fast as she goes” she told the princess. “If you want to go faster, there are larger horses in the paddock next door. You can even try the dressage course. Talk to your sister after this ride” Elsa stood and watched Anna spurring the pony to canter and gallop, crossing her arms and shaking her head at Anna. If she couldn't behave, she would intervene. She toyed with some winter magic at the tips of her fingers, swirling it around idly.

Castile listened to Tanya’s replies to his questions, nodding as he absorbed the new info. “Okay. TV room, nap room, outdoor nap spot, got it!” he gave her a thumbs up “Oh, yeah, I almost forgot about that. How silly of me!” He reached into his uniform’s apron pocket and took out the tablet, quickly searching for the locations of all the nap areas. Once he was sure he knew where each was, Castile slipped it back in his pocket and picked up Aurora, snuggling her close to his warm body, against the clean fabric of the uniform. “I know where I have to go now. I’ll be back in a little while. I’ll trust you and Lily to hold the fort till I get back” he winked at the ladies confidentially. He turned his head to look at the girl in his arms, his long whiskers brushing her cheek lightly “Aurora, I need your help! You’re going to come with me to check out the new nap rooms. We have to know where they are since we’re new here, so let’s go for a little walk to find them so we can come back and tell everyone” he told her, watching the pacifier bob in her mouth, “I need your help on this, since I might get lost if I go around this giant mansion all on my own. Come on, let’s go!” With that, he started to carry Aurora out of the nursery and playroom, taking his time walking through the building and down the halls towards the nap room, bypassing the TV room and the outdoor one to find the indoor nap space. He continued to purr happily and hum a playful lullaby while his large paws treaded silently across the floors, the booties barely making a sound. Castile peeked into other rooms and looked around, being curious and nosy like the cat he was. He was kind of hoping Aurora would fall asleep in his arms on the way to their destination but if not, he had a plan B. He would ask Aurora to test out the nap beds/bassinets/cots/cribs with him and then maybe read a picture book to her by way of seeing how other kids would feel lying on the cot, being read a story. His plan was sneaky but it just might work. After some time of walking, he peered around the door frame of a room and announced “Well, here we are. We found the nap room. Let’s tiptoe inside and look around” he said, keeping his voice low but still a pleasant and friendly tone. It was then that he suddenly realised that Tanya didn’t answer about whether all kids had to take a mandatory nap after lunch time, or whether each kid just slept when they got tired. He would have preferred them to all do it as a group at the same time, like with diaper changes. But he’d roll with whatever for the time being. The kids already living here were obviously used to how things were now. And he didn’t want to upset their daily schedules. As for bath time? He’d make sure everyone had a bath before bed, with plenty of bubbles. ============== Lily heard Mitch reply and chuckled “So you like them all? Well, that’s good. Animals are great” she said, “Maybe you can work with animals some day when you’re a big boy” She then looked at Milly, watching her play with stuffed toys. “Okay, well, I’m right here if you change your mind” she told her. “Enjoy your plushies, Little Miss” Lily remained sat with Samuel at the kiddy apple table and watched him choose and design his very own room. “Wow, that looks cool. A fireman room! Is that what you want to be when you grow up?” she asked with a smile. “That would be an exciting job”. She watched him pick out toys, furniture and other stuff, giving him small prompts in case he forgot anything. She reminded him to choose what kinds of diapers he preferred too. Once he was done, she looked over the choices and submitted the form for him. “Yep, that looks great. Well done, kiddo!” she told the boy, pleased with his efforts. She took the tablet back but placed it in front of herself at the table “Now that that’s done and out of the way, I’ve got to finish choosing MY bedroom here. You can go and play now. There are lots of toys here. I’ll come and join you in about ten minutes but I’m right here if you need me” she told him, giving herself that long to pick some stuff. Lily quickly entered her part of the app, tapping on the selection and choosing some very basic free furniture and stuff in shades of green for her apartment/living quarters. She then went to look through the paid stuff and favourited a bunch of green, tropical and frog themed stuff; lily pad tables and matching chairs, flooring for her bathroom that looked like tropical water and would be covered by clear resin, tropical leaves for the wallpaper, cane and rattan furniture for the bedroom and kitchen, a few hammocks, potted rainforest types of flowers and plants, insect wall decorations such as butterflies and dragonflies, a bunch of pillows with tropical decor such as pineapples or frogs for a mint green cushy sofa. She chose shades of green and white for the walls as well as rainforest tapestries and for the floors, some rooms with carpet, others with polished wooden floorboards and colourful rugs. She got some hanging wicker basket chairs with green poofy cushions that would hang from the ceiling and rock when you swung on them. Lily got excited as it all came together. Her house was gonna make her feel right at home and remind her of the one she left! It was gonna be great! Of course…she was gonna have to work hard to afford all the pay-for stuff that she made a big list of. But her apartment/quarters would be good once it was all paid off. Lily sent in the completed form and put the tablet back away. She looked around to see what all the kids were doing, having been glancing up every so often to keep an eye on them while picking her stuff for the apartment. She got up and walked around to see what each of them was doing. “Anyone need any help? Maybe I can play with you” she offered. She looked at Tanya "Unless - Tanya, is there anything I could do to help out?"

This is my new baby...hopefully it's okay that he's a bit different! X3 ********************** Clear walked onto the stage all by himself, trying to act much more confident than he felt. He trembled slightly, cheeks blushed a saffron hue, his eyelights bright yet quivering. It felt like a feather pillow had exploded in his insides, tickling him with mingled emotions. The flurries of nerves, excitement and embarrassment danced inside him, making it harder to keep focused on his display but he did his best, striking a few poses before beginning his journey down the runway with delicate steps. He kept his gaze above the crowd, staring into the distance to avoid the stares of the audience. This was hard but he didn't care. He was getting exposure. People would see him! They would know he existed. And then maybe...maybe he'd make some new friends, or even find a mommy or daddy! The magical skeleton monster slightly resembled Dream from Undertale AUs. Mostly because of the colour of his soul and magic; a pale saffron yellow. But there were many differences. He had bones of a nice thickness to make up for not having limbs like humans do. His bones didn't have any scars or distinguishing markings. He was also a bit on the short side for the average male height, which only added to his cuteness. Clear put on a small performance for the pageant he'd entered, posing and turning to show off his outfit from different camera angles. The small skeleton was wearing a soft romper decorated all over the front with silver sequins. It had frilly cap sleeves, with white satin ruffles starting from the sides of the hips and covering the entire area where his bottom was. The waistband of said romper was elasticised and the straps for around the neck tied at the back in a big silver satin bow. On his feet were white socks with frilly lace and his shoes were silver glitter Mary-Janes with a tulle bow that had a glittery silver star on the centre of each shoe. Upon his skull was an elasticised headband with a big bow that was covered in more silver sequins. His pale saffron ecto-body nicely filled out his form, his bottom plush and puffy with a thick disposable diaper that had yellow stars of varying sizes patterned over it, as well as some yellow pee from three wettings, soaking and poofing up the material further. He wore shimmery yellow eyeshadow and a liquid lip gloss with silver sparkles in it. Dabbed on his cheekbones was body glitter with silver stars in it. On the tips of his bone fingers where nails would be were holographic silver star stickers. Above his head floated a halo of bright silvery light which little sparks flickered off of and on his back were two small feathery wings made of more silver light, flickering their own tiny starbursts. Tiny sparks of light trailed from his fingertips as he waddled the pageant runway for his turn, trailing his hands as though through water. The sequins and shining magic captured the light, glinting and sparkling radiantly. Clear travelled slowly back down the runway and onto the stage, going to stand nearby the other contestants and their carers who were waiting after their turns in a line. Someone new came out to walk down the runway while Clear stood there and trembled, giddy but shaken, fidgeting cutely with his hands held to his chest, feet pigoen toed. He resisted the urge to suck his thumb but needed something to soothe his frayed nerves. He felt proud of himself for being so brave. He did it! He walked the catwalk all on his own! Just wait till he told his Little friends online!

Lily saw Samuel’s nod to her questions. She was still crouched nearby him. She just raised her voice and looked at Milly and Mitch from her spot while talking to them. Lily helped Samuel pick out some shortalls, a few more t-shirts, two rompers and three onesies to his liking. She draped each piece of clothing over her left arm. “All right, Honey, I think you’ve got a good collection here now. I’ll go put your new stuff on a spare shelf to take to your room later” she told the quiet boy. Lily took his stuff and put it beside hers in a pile. She then went back to Samuel and lightly took his hand, leading him back over to the cute apple table and helping him take a seat in one of the kid sized chairs. She pointed at the tablet, which was still displaying the catalogue for designing his room here at the manor. “Okay, let’s keep going. Just tap on the things you want and the workers will make your room just like you picked” She glanced at the blue rose in the bubble that followed Samuel around. She gently poked it and it floated backwards then came back to hang out at Samuel's shoulder height. "Hee hee!" Lily didn't have any such powers, but she did have froglike abilities.

Lily saw Samuel head to the racks of clothes after she had put her haul with her tote bag. She walked over and crouched down to see if Samuel needed any help picking what he wanted. When he showed her what he got, she smiled. “Ooh, good choice. Those will look great together. You’ll be nice and colourful too. I like the smiley whale” she praised him. “Do you want any of the more babyish clothes, like the onesies or rompers, maybe some shortalls? They have t-shirts with other animals on them too” she said, showing him one with a grinning tiger face on the front and another with a teddy bear pattern. “Or maybe you have a cartoon that you like. Otherwise we can go back to designing your new bedroom!” Lily heard Mitch say he was good. She looked to see what he had gotten and laughed a bit “Those are all kigurumi! You really like dressing up like different animals, I see. Did you get a frog one? I like frogs! You could wear it while playing leapfrog” she questioned curiously. “What’s your favourite animal?” She almost hoped he would say he liked frogs but they were not most people’s favourite. She saw Milly hiding some new clothes under a blanket and was confused by that. Why did she feel like she had to hide them? Maybe the new clothes were like treasures to her. Or she just didn’t want any of the other kids to steal what she had picked. Yeah, it was probably that. Milly left the nursery all on her own, carrying the blanket and clothes. Lily figured she must know her way around the mansion well enough to not get lost. She was still relieved to see the girl return to the nursery once she came back though. "Welcome back, Milly! I'm glad you made it all right. Let me know if you want help with anything, okay?" ====================== While Lily talked to the other three kids, Castile’s attention remained on Aurora for the time being. He saw her smile behind her pink and blue paci, brightening at his words. He was glad to see her so happy and internally thanked Tanya for her new surprises. Castile returned the hug she gave him, giving a soft laugh as he wrapped his arms around her and swayed her back and forth playfully while they snuggled. “Aww, hehe. Someone’s being a snuggle bug~” he commented, purring softly while he held her. She yawned and snuggled closer. “Are you ready for the bubbles? Or do you wanna take a cat nap first? I'll still be here when you wake up” he offered. Most little ones had a nap or two per day and after lunch was a common one. “Tanya, do they have sleep mats and blankets in here? I did see that there’s a nap room somewhere in the manor. I was just thinking that anyone who wants to should take the after lunch naptime” he stated. “Was gonna make some bubbles for the kiddos to chase but Aurora seems a little sleepy” He didn't know how things worked here yet. Were naps mandatory or just for those kids who wanted to? "How do things usually work here? I was thinking the kids could use a bath too. Samuel's hair is dirty and hasn't been brushed for a while"

Castile looked at the pretty things she had chosen approvingly as she held them up, his ears twitching softly “You did great. Very nice. They’re perfect for a little princess” he smiled, giving her a thumbs up and a smile. “You’ll look super sweet in them. I love the ruffles and ribbons; so darling! You have wonderful fashion sense, my Dear” He watched as she sat on her puffy rear and looked at what he’d made, giving a small chuckle at her words. “Why thank you. I thought the princess might like to use the train and rocket to travel to new places for her adventures. Or take the horse and carriage to see her friends” he told the little girl. “Playing is more fun when you use your imagination” he tapped a finger to his temple knowingly. “I really like the castle and wand you made. Everything’s balanced neatly. That’s amazing for someone your age” he praised her. “You’re very creative and I can see you have good motor skills” He looked at the clothes spread on the floor and across her lap. They were charming. Dollies and Barbie would approve. “Would you like to put on one of your new outfits? I can help you” he offered, tail slowly twitching. He saw her go over and finish the castle. “Oh you wanna finish that first. Okay” Castile took the clothes and got to his paws “I’ll go and put these safely on the shelf to take up to your room later. That way they won’t get lost” he told her. He went and put them on top of his pink duffle bag, selecting the pink onesie with white ruffles on the butt and returning. Aurora stood up, telling him her castle was all done. “Yayy! Good job, Sweetie. It turned out really cool” he cheered for her, looking at the colourful blocks. He really hoped no other kids knocked them over. He didn't know if Aurora would be upset. "How about we put this on and I can make some bubbles for everyone” Castile took a few steps forward and knelt down, reaching to gently pull her t-shirt off over her head and arms, then pulling the onesie down onto her and clipping the snaps at the crotch. He took one of the ribbons, tying a small side ponytail in her hair with a bow then taking a step back to take a proper view. “There. Aww, you look so cute in this!” he practically squealed, placing his hands to his cheeks as he looked at her. His tail swished animatedly, rising into the air like a cat’s would when they were happy. His paws danced on the spot, up and down. “Kyaaaa! Look at how adorable you are!” Everything matched; pink onesie, pink diaper, pink hair bow. She looked super cute.

((Was waiting for a post from Grumvakk but I’ll reply now since he's taking a bit...)) Castile finished the Cinderella style carriage, balancing blocks on top of each other to make a chunky looking round shape. He’d built it in front of the block pony he made. Aurora had almost finished the castle and it looked pretty good. He lay blocks flat to make the images of a simple train and a rocket, then began building a playground. It’d be fun to grab some plastic dolls and see if Aurora wanted to use them with the block playset they had made. Castile looked over at Aurora, noticing the kind of clothes she picked. He approved of her choices very much. They were so cute and pretty. He’d be happy to tie the ribbons into her hair. Castile waited for Aurora to finish picking clothes. “Those look nice, Aurora. Want to come show me what you got? I can help you put one on, if you want!” Right now, she was still in a t-shirt and diaper. But if she wanted to wear one of her new dresses, he would help her. ============ Lily looked surprised when Tanya told her the clothes were free. “Wow, really?! Oh my gosh, are you sure!? I got so many though!” She almost felt guilty for taking so many free items. But she did need uniforms and this would save her having to make a trip to the tailor. “Well thank you very much, Miss Tanya. I love your work. I’m so happy to have new uniforms. That’s awesome that you make all these in your spare time” she praised her. She walked up to Tanya, holding the pile of clothes draped over her left arm while leaning down to give Tanya a one armed hug. “Thank you! I love these. I’ll go put them with my bag to take back to my apartment later. I like that I can look nice and colourful for work now. Hopefully the kids will love it” she said, going to place the uniform on top of her tote bag, neatly folding them all in a pile. For now, she was content to keep wearing the spare uniform she’d borrowed when she got her ID. It was the colour of a strawberry milkshake with white trim and it matched her pink cheeks nicely. There were two large pockets on the front and one at the top right, with some round white buttons going down the middle, and a triangle collar around the neck. Her shoes were just the sandals she’d arrived in. Lily walked back over to Milly and Mitch, wanting to see what they chose. “Hey guys, what did you get? Do you want any help to put on a new outfit?” she asked “Mitch, you’re still wearing a bunny sleeper. Do you want to get out of those pyjamas?” she giggled.

Castile saw the chair brought in for him and thanked the worker, climbing up onto the long, low piece of furniture and neatly tucking his front paws under himself, wrapping his tail around his haunches as he sat in ‘cat loaf’ formation. He continued to build a chunky looking carriage out of coloured blocks, quietly humming a cheerful tune. Castile glanced towards the racks of clothes Tanya brought out for the kids and smiled, admiring her handiwork. Each piece was designed to give easy access to a diaper; these had thought put into them. Plus, there were different styles and fashions, it seemed. He didn’t bother to look for himself since most of them were kids clothes and the regular nanny uniforms wouldn’t fit him. He did keep an eye on Milly, Mitch, Aurora and Samuel from his spot though. =============== Lily saw Tanya point out the rack of nanny clothes to her. She got to her feet with excitement. “Ah, for me? Wow, thank you, Miss Tanya. I’ll come have a look!” she replied. “Samuel, you wanna pause picking a room and come look at clothes?” she asked the shy boy in a soft tone, placing a hand on his shoulder as she leaned down to speak to him. “We can come back to it” Regardless of Samuel’s decision, she headed over to take a quick look at what was on offer, browsing through the things on hangers, pulling this or that out to take a better look, holding some things up against herself. Lily picked out some long, full coverage t-shirts that had fun prints on them; froggies, tropical flowers or fruit. She added some loose, soft pants and some pairs of tropical leggings. She also chose a couple of knee length shift dresses with pockets that had tropical designs. “That’ll about do it. How much for these?” she said, walking up to Tanya and showing her what she got. “You had some wonderful summer and rainforest prints on the fabric” she giggled. “How did you know what I like?”

Lily nodded and smiled at Mitch “All right. I’ll do you after Samuel” she told him. “Please wait right there” It should take her no more than 5 minutes. Lily saw how Samuel was trembling. She felt sorry for him as well as Aurora. There was a lot of chatter going on and a bunch of new people around them. Her heart went out to the shy kids, knowing it must be hard for them. She wanted to try to make them feel more comfortable and relaxed here so they could have fun. They kind of got thrown in the deep end today. It was pretty much like the first day of school. “So, you prefer to be called Samuel? Okay, then. Don’t worry, it’s gonna be okay” Lily responded quietly with a warm smile. When he accepted being put into a diaper, she waited as he stepped over to her, then gently picked him up, balancing him on one hip. “Upsy daisy! That’s a good boy” Lily took the boy with the tan skin and silver-grey eyes over to the table and gently laid him down on the padded surface before giving him a plushie to cuddle and play with “Here, you can play with this while I get you diapered. A little friend for you~” she said softly, her warm brown eyes smiling down at him. Lily gently removed any clothing that was in the way, then reached under the table and picked a thick diaper with a tropical print on it. There were various pineapples on a bright teal background. One of Lily’s favourite fruits. She gave a soft giggle at the diaper before unfolding it, lifting Samuel’s legs and bottom to slide the soft padding underneath him. The frog girl confidently applied baby oil then plenty of baby powder before taping it up nice and snug, making sure the leak guards were standing. She dressed Samuel’s lower half again, then used the safety strap to hold him secure on the table while she washed her hands in the sink a few steps away. She came back and gathered him up into her arms after unbuckling the safety strap, placing his feet back on the ground. The whole time the change was happening, the blue rose inside the magic bubble hovered around near or above Samuel. “There we go; all done! You did very well, Samuel, good job for your first diapering!” Lily couldn’t help asking about the magic bubble and its contents “…That’s a very pretty rose you have there. Was it a gift from someone?” she asked him curiously. “Well, can you wait here while I change Mitch? Then I’ll get us using the iPad” she promised. Turning her attention to the other boy; Mitch was dark skinned with short black hair and brown eyes, wearing some footed bunny PJs, Lily walked over and picked him up “Now your turn, Mister!” she smiled as she carried him to the same table she just used for Samuel. She laid him down, giving him a toy from the box on the shelf above the table. “Here, you can play while I get you changed, Honey” she told him sweetly. She gently removed his footed bunny sleeper and peeled the tapes open on his wet diaper, quickly cleaning him up with plenty of wet wipes. Lily saw the boxes of diapers under the table automatically change to a box with Mitch’s name on them. She got out one of his personal diapers and smoothed it out, lifting his legs and bottom to place it under him. The frog girl added baby oil, rubbing it in gently, then shaking on powder and rubbing that in. She taped the diaper up snuggly, giving it a playful pat at the landing zone where the tapes stuck to. “There! Nice and comfy!~” she giggled. Lily put his bunny sleeper back on, letting him down from the table. She heard Tanya tell the kids that once they were clean, they could come and pick out any of her handmade clothes that they liked. “Oh Mitch, that sounds fun. Do you want to pick some clothes from Tanya?” she asked him, pointing over at the woman and her racks of wares. “I have to help Samuel now but I’ll be right here in the nursery, where you can see me” she promised. Lily took her tablet out of her uniform pocket and approached Samuel again then pointed to a small table in the nursery. “Let’s go sit over there at the red apple kiddy table and pick out what you want your room to look like and what you want to put in it” she said, guiding the boy over to the table with a hand lightly upon his back. Lily pulled out a kid’s chair for him to sit on and kneeled beside him, placing the tablet/iPad down in front of him with the program open. “This is the catalogue. All you do is look at the pictures and tap the box next to it to pick each thing you like. You can pick the walls, floor, furniture and toys” she told him. “It's okay if you want a babyish room, something for a toddler, or something for an older child! Just have fun with it” ================== Castile could visually notice Aurora's body relax as she took the paci and sucked it. “Hehe, works like a charm, every time” he said with slight amusement. Pacifiers always worked wonders with his kids too. The little sigh from the diaper feeling so nice made him chuckle softly. “Diapers are good too, of course!” Aurora thanked him, her cute voice ringing in his ears. Castile smiled at her thanks “Lovely manners, Sweetie” he replied, glad to see her feeling back to normal. Castile had put her down and she agreed to go back to the blocks. He followed her and then laid on the ground beside her, furry cat body sprawled out, resuming his own creations from the colourful wooden blocks. “Now, you were making a princess castle and a wand for the princess. And I was making…hmm…gotta try to remember” he tapped his lower lip as he thought, tilting his head cutely before perking up. “Ah, I recall. It was a playground for the princess. And a carriage for the pony. And maybe a rocket ship and a train for her to travel even more~” he lilted happily. As they were sitting there, playing, he heard Tanya speak up about her racks of clothes. “Ooh, Aurora, do you want to go and see what kinds of clothes Tanya has got? She said you can pick some out to keep” he told her, pointing over at Tanya and her homemade outfits on racks. Castile looked over at Milly, who hadn’t chosen what to play with yet. “Milly, Sweetheart! Do you want to see what clothes Miss Tanya has? Why don’t you go have a look?” he urged her gently.
