When did it become Carly AND Beth getting breastfed? 🤣

I think they both need a little time in the care of a good (bad) responsible (mean) Amazon mummy who takes loving care of them.

And that includes breastfeeding them both.

It definitely is, but the person is at least still physically alive? Let's be honest, this is reserved for only the worst offenders. The things her mother did were horrible.  

No argument there.

Are you trying to make me cry? No way you can make Beth break up with Carly/Connor! I am sure there’s a good explanation for why Connor ended up with Cameron’s nanites. The first thought is that they are related in some way but I don’t think that is the case. 
Now this new little game could be interesting.  I will be looking forward to learning more about it.

Great chapter, not sure how they saw a difference between Stacy's nanites and Camerons, Stacy gave her nanites to Cam and Amanda spent day filtering his blood to remove the ones that Addisons mom put in, so they should both be Stacy's in the end.  I remember in your story that the regression left her memories intact so she would always know why she was being punished, not surprised she would remain bitter given she felt she ws above the law.  I can see why Libby would be nervous, a mid hanging with little's is just looked at like they want to be a baby them self, I remember Emerson having an unwritten rule against little's having a boyfriend or girlfriend when Beth and Cameron were there before.😀💜

Stacy was known to modify her own nanites. Perhaps it means Carly had a version similar to the ones Stacy gave to Cam and not her original ones she first got when she became a girl. In any case they don't seem to play well with the new ones used on Carly.

Stacy's in the end. 

There were a major number of adjustments Stacy did before she injected Cameron with his. His were very much a new 'strain' so to speak. Stacy also changed the version number of the nanites to establish that.

I can see why Libby would be nervous,

Yeah, completely unfair to Carly, but probably incredibly smart to say that if you're trying to keep your best friend out of harms way!

You'll have a couple chapters more for information that will come to explain this more. Be patient through the narratives class, it'll take up the next chapter.

hmm.. Carly has 2 moms.. Is this where we find out Cameron is secretly his father?

 

Cameron: Carly, I am your father.

Beth and Carly: Nooooooooo…

Can't happen, Stacy had Connor long after she went home, and Cameron had Beth reborn around the same time as Connor.

Thanks again for the comments and the laughs! 💜

Thanks for all the stories! Some days I really need something to read and escape into. Even with a job I like, a decent supervisor, and good coworkers, some days (like yesterday) and just... Ugh! Excuse me while I growl and stomp around for a few minutes.

She nodded, “After Mom almost drowned, she insisted she learn how to swim, as well as the Little who saved her. Eventually, she got good enough to swim for her high school team. When I was born, Mom started giving me lessons before I could even walk!”

I suspected that was the case. Not a terribly difficult guess once her identity was known, but a fun detail all the same.

On 3/22/2024 at 10:44 AM, BabySofia said:

She shrugged, “You do pull off the look now. Without the uniform, everyone will just assume you’re just a regular baby girl.”

Like mother, like daughter...

On 3/22/2024 at 10:44 AM, BabySofia said:

For a real toddler! It was more than a little infantilizing for a now nineteen-year-old girl. I made no complaints, though, just cooperatively pulling it up over my diaper, squeezing my arms through the straps, and then tugging it a bit to get it to sit right.

“You look sooooo adorable!” Lilly cooed quietly.

I rolled my eyes, “Of course I do!”

I'm starting to have doubts about the degree to which Carly has complained about the cuteness levels. Or does she want all the cuteness for herself?

On 3/22/2024 at 10:44 AM, BabySofia said:

“Beats smelling like a baby, I guess?” I sighed.

“You sure don’t hold back, do you?” She asked.

"What is, 'holding back'? Is it food? Can I bite it?"

On 3/22/2024 at 10:44 AM, BabySofia said:

I wondered if I’d stepped over the line, but I guessed I could trust her, “Honestly, you and Miss Mackenzie stood up for me and were willing to defend me when I was poisoned. It earned you trust points. I can filter it all out, though, if you want me to?”

She tickled my side and smiled, “No, I like that you have a brain. “Close your eyes; we’ll put conditioner in there now.”

Inside Lilly's head a la Inside Out someone pounds a hand down on a button, "We got trust points! Commence with the squealing for joy!"

On 3/22/2024 at 12:43 PM, AlexTheAlex said:

It's awesome to see her becoming okay with the baby treatment.

I'm wondering if there wasn't a little bit of closeted desire for that hiding away in the back of Carly's mind in addition to the more self-aware hidden desire to be a girl.

Also, is your profile picture Len Kagamine? Huh, no, looking closer that's not Len, just made me think of him, whoever the character is they're cute!

On 3/22/2024 at 3:31 PM, Baby Billy said:

I wonder if Ventura is helping Kelly, they had a heavy presence in that stae.

I'll put five cookies down on their being involved with what Kelly did and five more cookies on their considering her a completely disposable asset. One cookie on her having been dosed with nanites and regressed shortly after her flight made it to the west coast.

On 3/22/2024 at 11:56 PM, BabySofia said:

I think Mackenzie is just one of the few rare 'good' bigs who somehow found her way into being a nest mother.

Good news everyone! We found the flaw in the selection process that let two protective Bigs become nest mothers this term. We have updated the selection criteria to prevent it happening again and we'll but the new criteria into use just as soon as that terrifying professor emeritus is no longer watching so closely.

On 3/24/2024 at 1:57 PM, BabySofia said:

“Your nanites are direct descendants of your mothers, but these are slightly different. I think they’re actually nanites from Beth’s dad, Cameron.”

Dun, dun, DUN!!!

Ooh! What if the conspiracy figured out what Carly's Mom did and these were originally developed when she was their most terrifying boogie-Little. Something they came up with to get past her nanites back when they were probably afraid she would come back through the portal at any time. Then when that fear faded away someone looked at it and said, "I've got a terrible, horrible, no good, naughty idea. I'm going to get the biggest employee bonus ever!"

On 3/24/2024 at 1:57 PM, BabySofia said:

Today, this post marks a complete year without missing a week of posting!!!! This is a first for me, as I usually run out of chapters by mid-summer due to my short writing season each year. I'm excited to have managed not to miss any weeks!

YAAAAAY!

I'm going to pretend I didn't see the bit after that. If I don't admit it was there it can't scare me with slow downs.

Chapter 104: Flash in a Pan

I WAS MORE than a bit excited to see what was in store for this latest contest. I tried not to shift more in my seat, though, as I was still blushing after having realized Charlotte had pulled my skirt down to keep me modest a moment ago!

‘It’s still going to take some time to get used to wearing skirts,’ I thought.

“Okay, so I need producers to come and grab a box from me over here,” he told them. Your Director of Photography should also each collect a camera now.”

I watched as Will and Charlotte grabbed the box and camera and brought them over.

“Okay, so many of you are struggling with the lack of budget with your special effects. Today, we want to experiment to see how creative you are. I’ve included things in your box that will let you develop creative film sequences. I want you to film three scenes where a special effect happens with those items without resorting to holographic projections or CGI.”

“This is going to be hard,” I heard Mason whisper to someone.

“This’ll be a lot of fun!” I found myself whispering back.

“You all have an hour for this project. When you’re done, you will show the class what you came up with. The only HoloProjections you may use are for background scenery. All effects must be done through tricks of film. To ensure each group has their own unique ideas, I will raise HoloWalls between your groups until the time is up. Questions?” He smiled. Then your hour starts, now!”

I turned to the table and found myself lifted by Charlotte onto the tabletop even as Sebastian started pulling out the contents. He started setting things aside one at a time. Inside was a plastic gun, a box of matches, a plastic stage knife that the blade retracted, old-fashioned fireworks fuses, four toy cars and one of their modern magnetic trains in a boxed set, two large syringes, strawberry syrup, a digital scale, chocolate syrup, an exacto knife, plastic tubing, a tub marked KClO4, two empty plastic jugs, another tub marked Al Powder, rolled paper, a tray, a package of diapers, several Big sized clothing sets, medical tape, a mini blowtorch, and some fake chains.

“This stuff is just junk?” Madelyn said.

“I don’t think so,” I said, “We need three effects, right?”

“That’s what Professor Wyler said,” Charlotte agreed.

“Okay, we have an easy squib kit here. Why don’t we do a gunshot and a stabbing wound?” I suggested.

“What?” Sophie asked.

I smiled, “The old-fashioned version of things like PooPloders. I’ve got that part. If Gary can help me with the costuming of a few of you, we should be able to have that done in a few minutes.”

“Go for it,” Charlotte said, “We need one more though?”

“How about making the train explode one of the toy cars?” Beth suggested.

“How?” Ethan asked. “I don’t see explosive charges in there?”

I turned towards Beth and watched her smirk. “They actually kindly left us that. Why don’t you leave the paper, the two tubs, the fuses, and the torch with me? If a couple of you can make a fake highway going across train tracks for background, get those set, and I’ll get the effect ready to go!”

“Can we do this safely inside?” Charlotte asked.

“Yes, it’s fine in here. You can even set off small explosives in this stage,” Ava said. I’ll help you with this part.”

“Will, can you be ready to film things as we’re set?” Charlotte told him.

“Done!” he said.

“Okay,” Charlotte said. She divided the team up and gave me five others besides Gary and then Beth a few more. Then, she split everyone else up to get the backgrounds going before we all started getting to work!

“Okay, Gary, that shirt will fit Jackson, right?”

He nodded as he looked at Jackson, “Yeah, it’s a two-x; it shouldn’t be a problem, right?”

Jackson shook his head, “It’ll definitely fit.”

“Okay, Gary, could you cut a small hole right at heart level on his back? A little smaller than this tubing?”

“Sure, I see where you’re going, Carly,” he told me. “What are you doing about the knife?”

I didn’t immediately answer, instead taking the tubing and pulling it loose from its coil. To me, it felt like it was a garden hose, but I could tell it would fit onto the syringe just fine. I used the actual knife to quickly cut it in half. I set half down and then used tape to seal the end of one side. I carefully used the knife to make a knife-sized length and cut down the middle of it a little way down from the taped end. I handed that half of it to Isabella.

“Isabella, can you take Madelyn here and use tape to put that end face up above her belly button? There’s a shirt here that should work on her, so we don’t have to ruin her good top. Run the tube down the back side of her right leg if it’ll reach.”

“On it!” she smiled at me.

“Sophie, do you think you can mix that chocolate and strawberry syrup to try and get a close color to blood?”

She smiled, “Sure, I’ll happily play with the sweet stuff!” She tickled my side unexpectedly and moved to the side to fill a jug while Gary and I moved on to our work.

 

BETH QUICKLY MOVED to the side of the table and used her phone to look up the proportions of powder she needed before using paper on the scale and starting to work. She poured some potassium percolate on first, then added the correct amount of aluminum to the mix. It was a careful and gentle process, but several minutes of using the paper to shake things back and forth across it made it seem well mixed.

While she was working, Ava and a couple of other crew members assembled a miniature diorama. The scale of the cars and the train were the same, so Beth was reasonably confident that zoomed-in things should look just right!

Ethan had a city background setup with a highway above the tracks, even as one of the spare cars was parked on the other side of a blocked track with a rail. One of the other cars was straddling the tracks and just about ready for its death.

Beth carefully poured a good amount of the powder she had mixed onto a small metal plate they’d found in the bottom of the box and placed it underneath the car.

The fuse was carefully disguised, and she timed burning at a similar length to help get things right. “Okay, I think I’m ready,” she told Will.

He quickly came over and placed the camera on the dolly someone else had prepositioned. She watched him switch settings for a few minutes to ensure he had the best view. “I think we’re good,” he told her.

“Great, let’s do this!” Beth smiled, even as her stomach twisted, hoping she had the proper setup ready. “Rolling!” Beth ordered Will.

“Rolling!” Will said.

Beth lit the fuse with the blowtorch; as she moved out of frame, she said, “Action!” Even as Ava started the train moving down the tracks…

 

I WAS WORKING on the movements with Jackson and Harper, who would be our stuntmen for the first action scene with the squibs. I was happy with the scenery that they’d quickly set up and was just about to call for Will and the camera when I realized Beth had beat me to him. Knowing we had a time limit, I started loading the makeshift squib for the gunshot by filling the syringe and the tubing with the fake blood that Sophie had made.

“Sophie, this looks way closer than anything I thought you’d be able to get from that stuff?” I mentioned to her.

She smiled, “Not my first rodeo with fake blood. I have other stuff I prefer, but this definitely can work. Also works great on ice cream and pancakes, though, too!”

I shook my head and laughed a bit.

As I was sure we could shoot any moment, I saw a massive flash from the corner of my eye!

 

BETH SMILED. “IT worked. Did the camera pick it up right, though?” she asked Will.

“Here, watch the replay,” he said, activating a small portable projector off the camera.

The whole thing seemed to move in slow motion as they watched the train approach the stopped car. They’d done an excellent job of hiding the powder and the fuse, so it seemed completely natural as the car exploded when it was impacted by the train.

“Cut!” Beth said to herself after the smoke cleared, leaving a toppled train, but fortunately, no actual flames remained.

“That was awesome!” Sebastian said, having come over to watch what was going on.

“You are a girl of many talents!” Will said approvingly.

Charlotte said, “Will, go film the next effect that Carly has ready. Beth, I have another idea… do you have more of that powder?”

 

WILL WAS READY to film our first squib scene in record time. I watched him work on the lenses and apertures and ask for some lighting changes before Harper and Jackson were put to work.

“Action!” I called.

“You can’t do this!” Jackson said, holding his hands up in the air as Harper pointed the fake gun at him.

“Of course I can!” Harper said.

A loud bang on the table with a piece of metal happened, and Jackson turned away from Harper. He began falling face forward even as I stayed out of the frame and squirted the syringe full of fake blood. I watched it move satisfyingly out of the small hole Gary had cut from the shirt, even as I dodged under a covering to avoid getting sprayed myself!

“Cut!” I said.

“Check it quickly,” I told them, “I will get set up for Madelyn. Harper, can you come to be the bad guy here, too?”

“Why am I always the villain?” He complained good-naturedly.

“It’s not the good looks,” Sophie kidded him.

“You wound me!” he said.

“Did it work, Will?” I heard Sebastian ask him.

“It looks good!” he said. I wish we had time to add better sound effects to these clips, but that wasn’t the assignment?”

“We’ll just do the best we can,” Charlotte said. “Will, I need you over here to come film a bonus scene with me?”

“We’re almost done with this setup,” Will said, “Can we just finish this first? I think it’ll save time?”

Right then, I was already filling up the stabbing squib on Madelyn as the background was changing, and Harper came up with the fake knife. “So you just want me to stab, and then you’ll activate it?” He asked me.

“That’s the idea,” I told him. A quick look at my watch showed we only had about fifteen minutes left. “Let’s get this done. Will, you ready?”

“Just about!” He looked at Charlotte, “Get set for that bonus scene, and then we’ll move straight over there?”

“Got it,” she said. “Sebastian, make sure this goes okay, then get everyone moving. We don’t have much time left, and I want any bonus funds to go to us, not them!”

Sebastian laughed, “Got it, Charlee, go get over there.”

I looked up from the full squib to see her sticking her tongue out at him.

“Those two need to get laid already,” Madelyn smirked down at me.

I rolled my eyes, “Probably?”

“Quiet on the set!” Sebastian said. A second later, after cameras were rolling, he called action. After a brief worthless bit of improvised dialogue, I watched Harper stab even as I pressed the plunger down. As he pulled the knife clear, there was blood on his hands, the knife and spurting from Madelyn as she fell down holding the wound. “Die bitch!” Harper laughed maniacally and walked away.

“Cut!” Sebastian called.

“That seemed good! Will, move to Charlotte quickly!”

“On it, boss!”

I watched him rapidly push the camera on the dolly to the area beside us, even as I helped Gary and Madelyn start to clean up our mess.

 

BETH HAD SMILED at Charlotte’s idea instantly when she’d suggested it!

They’d used the chains to ‘chain’ Charlotte to the floor of what looked like an old castle dungeon. Owen was dressed as some sort of adventurer, while she’d quickly donned a pink glittery dress they’d found in their box.

He was holding a small piece of paper with the powder on it, having supplies beside a stone bench that made it look like he’d scrounged and made the powder.

“Rolling!” Sebastian called.

“Rolling!” Will called.

“Action!” Sebastian said.

“This will hopefully work…” Owen said as he came to Charlotte and placed the powder inside the keyhole of a fake manacle they’d projected over the top of the same metal plate. The chain looked attached, “Move as far from there as you can reach,” he ordered her.

Beth watched Charlotte scoot a few feet away as a match was lit and placed into the powder. Owen lit that match with another match, and the crew watched it burn down in real-time into the powder, going off in a brilliant display of sparks! As planned, Charlotte pulled the free length of chain from the floor and tackled Owen in a hug.

“You did it! You’re my hero!” She swooned in his arms. Owen dipped her dramatically before stage-kissing her.

“Cut!” Sebastian said even as Professor Wyler’s voice said, “Time’s up!”

“Just in time,” Carly said beside Beth. That was really cool!” She told her and embraced her.

“Now, just to see how we did!” Beth told her.

 

IT HAD TAKEN all of the groups a half-hour to clean everything up. I was standing there helping to bend over to pick up some spilled ‘blood’ when, all of a sudden, something just didn’t feel right in my stomach.

I wasn’t sure what was happening for a second before realizing what had happened.

‘Not again,’ I complained in my head.

I could feel the sudden muck in the back of my diaper even, and I could also smell the disgusting poop too. I bit my tongue to avoid crying then.

Gary was also helping clean up right beside me. He wrinkled his nose, looking down at me. “Need a change?” he asked me.

I grimaced, “Feels like it. I can’t feel it when it’s happening, though!”

He looked apologetic, “I’m sorry, that’s probably my fault more than anyone’s? I wanted us to use the nanite treatment?”

I shrugged, “I knew the risks?”

“Where’s your bag?” He looked at me sympathetically, “I can change you or get someone else?”

I hated to wish this on Beth, but she was the only one I felt comfortable with right then. I was about to tell him to grab her when Nikki suddenly picked me up, “I’ll get this one,” she said.

I tensed up, “Umm…”

“I promise I won’t do anything but help you smell pretty again,” she said as she lifted me onto her hip. “Now, where’s your bag? I assume you have a change in there?”

I blushed but pointed to the backpack and let my self-appointed caregiver carry me into the wardrobe room while everyone else cleaned up. I could see the classroom setting returning right then, even as other groups scrubbed. The door closed on that, though, and she soon had me back in a room, diaper exposed.

She smiled at me, “You remind me of a friend of mine I grew up with,” she said as she opened the tapes to expose the mess.

“Oh?” I asked nervously, blushing bright red in embarrassment.

“Trudy was her name; she was a Little, too,” she added the last part softly.

“She was your friend?” Nikki nodded as she began using a cleaner part of the diaper to wipe some of the mess off my butt.

“Trudy and I were inseparable all the way through graduation. I was short all the way until I turned thirteen. Since she was only a few inches short of six feet, it didn’t seem quite as weird as if she was your height. In fact, I guess she was taller than me until fourth grade?” She wiped my butt right then, even as she used one hand to hold my ankles up in the air.

“What happened to her?” I asked her as she tossed a second wipe away.

She sighed, “On graduation day, I had a pact with her that I would adopt her to avoid some random Big getting her. Unfortunately, I hadn’t counted on the principal beating me to her.”

I winced as she pressed harder with a wipe just then, “That’s terrible.”

She nodded, “It was… Anyway, know that if you ever feel like you’re unsafe, you can trust me. Even if it wasn’t for Trudy, your mom was a great teacher and mentor when I worked with her as a kid.”

I just nodded and was relieved as she taped on a new diaper, pulled my tights back up, and carried me back out to where everyone sat back down at the tables.

Professor Wyler was walking in with three other professors, saying, “Okay, let’s go ahead and get to seeing everything. I’m using Professors Gibney, Tilling, and Anderson as our judges for this round. I’ve quickly randomized your filmed segments to be independent from each group. They’ll each be scored on a scale of one to one hundred. Let’s see who ends up winning the most points for their groups!

I will post another chapter on Sunday this week and next. After that, twice per week, chapters may have to go away, so I can maintain them at least once a week. My real-world life exploded stress-wise last week, and this week, so I'm doing my own normal insane job, plus someone else's. Sadly, I don't think that's going to get better over the next couple of months. (I'm still crossing my fingers and praying; it's due to a coworker's serious illness) Unfortunately, that means I'm going to have much more limited times of muse behaving, I'm guessing. We'll see!

Lots of likes and comments do help that muse get herself back on track sometimes, though!

Anyway, thanks for your support!

How does Trudy know Carly's mother again?

Too many chapters, too many people and too little time to read everything again.

I can understand that with the stressful working life

I now have 4 weeks of intensive work ahead of me.

Then 1.5 weeks off but then 8 weeks of hard life at a vocational school with German tax law and believe me it's not one of the most complicated in the world for nothing.

I'm really excited to see how it all continues and I'm looking forward to finding out what's new on Sunday.

I bet Carly and Beth's troupe will win the show simply because Carly's knowledge of our world allowed her to react much more creatively to the task than Amazons who are used to holo technology.

Trudy didn't; that's Nikki's friend in her story. Nikki studied martial arts with Stacy's grandfather, so Stacy was around and also helped out with classes sometimes. Nikki, therefore, studied with Stacy - Carly's Mom.

Understanding comes when you accept that others are also going through difficult times, regardless of what your own are like.

In the place where I work now, the next four weeks will be about collecting taxes by going to people's homes.

People are even trained for a day beforehand so that they don't get too emotionally involved.

Fortunately, that's not the case for me, as I don't see the people, just the tax cases.

Whether this is comparable to what you do, I don't know, as for reasons and by all rights you don't tell people what you do.

Nonetheless, we can both understand when people say that we're in for a tough few weeks.

And above all, you live in the USA. This means that your working week can be 60 hours, 6-7 days a week due to the lack of employee rights in the USA.

For me, it's a maximum of 40 hours over 5 days.

I'm digressing again.

I'll keep my fingers crossed that it won't be that bad.

[Mushysnugglebutts]

The principal beat her to her friend eh?... For some reason, I can see that happening to a certain cousin soon...  Or perhaps a board member, even.

Some weeks that's a short week for me. This week was just short of 50 hours, the week before it was probably around the 70 hour mark. Not normally this busy this time of year...

I don't like letting people live without peril, but I know the pitchforks would reach me far too quickly to even consider that action! 🤣

Log for the day:

After a little break I started to continue this adventure. The story is still gripping. I can't believe the protesters had success with their work. Good for them, but I guess there is always a catch. I'm interested in how the theater will play out for Beth. I'm sometimes a little confused who is who because there are so many characters. Maybe I should look up who Charlotte and Lila are again Do you have like a Persona list or something? It is really helpful in fantasy books.

I have my own ridiculous document... Haven't thought about a separate page or something for reference. I might give it some thought this weekend as it would be a non-creative task I could do if my muse misbehaves. 

Thanks for continuing to comment! 🙂

Great chapter as always! 

I like how they used syrup to make fake blood, reminds me of when I was a kid when I used cornstarch, water and food coloring to make it.

It was meant to be a bit of an homage to Alfred Hitchcock. He used chocolate syrup for at least one of his films to be blood. I was thinking of a way to change it to be a bit more colorful for a color film since they didn't have anything ready-made as you can get from prop shops. Corn syrup is a pretty common way to make it to this day with food coloring. If you're making it from scratch, there are a number of recipes a quick Google search can find.

Loved it.  That was some quick thinking on their part.  Well on Carly’s part at least, and with time constraints like that it had to be. I am curious to see what some of the other teams came up with.  I know they won’t be as good as Carly and Beth’s team. 
With Sunday being Easter will we be getting a new chapter? I can understand if not but I am hopeful we will.
