Chapter 16

Cassidy huffed as her, Allyson, and Brita were getting ready for the day. The reason she was huffy was the harness currently being tightened onto her chest with a leash attached to the back being held by Allyson. Cassidy’s outfit was predictably juvenile as will. A one piece shirt and skirt combo in white with a powder blue skirt and sleeves. Of course the skirt rode up enough to basically put her diaper on constant display. Allyson and Brita were wearing comparatively bland clothes. Allyson in a shirt and pants and Brita in her own more modest one piece dress.

“So so fussy,” Allyson said tightening the harness on Cassidy.

“You would be too,” Cassidy said under her breathe.

“Well complaining about it isn’t going to change things,” Brita said pointedly. “Clovis isn’t going to allow you into the chapel without you being on a leash after yesterday.”

“It shouldn’t matter too much anyway,” Allyson said clipping a lead onto the back of Cassidy’s harness and sliding the loop down to her wrist expertly. “You’re going to be in the nursery all day cooking up a fancy rune.”

“Yeah but I still have to walk past everyone to get there,” Cassidy pouted.

“You’re playing a part remember,” Brita said. “The more people that see you acting like a child the more convincing it is. So it’s for the best that everyone see you on the ride over if you think about it.” Cassidy grumbled in response but she didn’t have a lot of choice. Allyson was making her way down and with the lead in her hand and that meant Cassidy was coming too.

The three made their way to a large cart being pulled by two cuccobos. Inside were several Biscotti heading to the chapel to help out with preparations Cassidy blushed as she was paraded around in front of her girlfriend’s family dressed as a toddler. Though none of them thought much of it. The ones who knew that Cassidy wasn’t actually a child also knew why she was pretending to be so didn’t say anything about it. So about half of the people in the cart knew Cassidy was an adult which only made her blush more at the situation. Though in truth they were mostly impressed by her commitment more than anything.

Cassidy chanced one look up and caught a glimpse of Jayna sitting nearby, who gave Cassidy a wave and a smile. Cassidy groaned and looked down in shame. Just a few days ago Jayna looked up to her, and now she was sitting here in front of Jayna on a leash and in a visible diaper. A visible and soggy diaper Cassidy just realized. That put the cherry on top on this situation.

The ride couldn’t go fast enough for Cassidy, she spent the whole time hiding in embarrassment despite some attempts by Allyson to get her to cheer up. Before long they finally made it to the chapel and everyone got off of the cart giving some thankful smiles and waves to Cassidy as they went to help set up.

“That was mortifying,” Cassidy sighed.

“Don’t be so glum about it,” Allyson stood up and walked off making Cassidy follow her. “Everyone is very thankful for you for stepping up.”

“Doesn’t make me feel much better about it,” Cassidy was annoyed but continued on inside mostly because the leash left her little choice.

They made their way into the main chapel where Clovis was already busily dictating decorating effort.

“Ah the bride and her sister,” Clovis greeted warmly. “And the flower girl,” he said with less enthusiasm. “On her leash thankfully. Try and keep her away from the decorations this time.” Cassidy pouted angrily but Allyson maintained a smile.

“Actually if you don’t need her for anything Allyson was going to take her to the nursery again,” Brita offered.

“Well she could stand to go over the routine a few more times,” Clovis said in thought.

“It’s just tossin flower on the ground,” Cassidy grumbled but Allyson elbowed her to keep her quiet.

“Is it really that hard?” Allyson said more politely. “Plus it’s always cuter when they mess it up a little anyway.” Clovis looked over to Brita for approval.

“Sis has a point,” Brita shrugged. “Plus you know too much practice made her all fussy yesterday.”

“Say no more,” Clovis said getting the idea. “Just make sure she doesn’t get out again. Maybe put her in one of those cribs.”

“I can make sure she doesn’t get into trouble again,” Allyson said confidently. Cassidy pouted and turned her body, Thankfully Allyson was leaving dragging Cassidy along with her.

“Ugh that guy is so annoying,” Cassidy said as she and Allyson entered the familiar nursery.

“He’s just doing his job sweetie,” Allyson pointed out unclipping the lead from Cassidy’s harness. “You did kinda ruin an arch and almost get yourself stabbed.”

“Don’t remind me.”

“It doesn’t matter anyway because remember you’ve got your own job to do while we’re all doing ours,” Allyson said knowingly grabbing a slightly shrunken version of Cassidy’s staff from the diaper bag. She gave it to Cassidy who upon grabbing it began casting a spell to enlarge the wood of the staff back to its normal size. Allyson handed Cassidy a magical crystal. “Let me see if you need a change before I leave you to it.” Cassidy grumbled at being embarrassed yet again but didn’t complain. She noticed her diaper was wet on the ride over so she probably needed a change now. “I’ll check back in a minute you’re good now.”

“What?” Cassidy said shocked.

“You’re fine,” Allyson dismissed Cassidy. “You know even when it’s shrunk your staff took up a lotta room. I didn’t have enough room for a lot of extra changes so you’re going to have to make them last today.” Cassidy rolled her eyes. Even if she was going to have to do it while in a wet diaper at least doing her day job would give her some semblance of maturity. “You got everything you need?”

“All set,” Cassidy gave a thumbs up as she starting setting things up using the changing table as a makeshift work station. Allyson returned the thumbs up and left the nursery locking the door behind her. That would hopefully keep anyone from coming in and interrupting Cassidy and discovering that she was more adult than she appeared.

With some peace and quiet Cassidy started to get to work, trying her best to ignore that she was doing all of this in a wet diaper. As she thought about it though, it was actually kind of exciting. She giggled a little at how she must look. Cutesy little girl, soggy diaper peeking out about to get to work carving magic runes. With this new mindset she actually found the soggy diaper to improve her mood.

The first step was to figure out what exactly was going on with her body so she could replicated the effect in a rune. This was actually pretty easy. There was a pretty common and well known spell used by doctors to monitor all of the effects on a person’s body. It was an easy way to identify if anything magical was going on, and Cassidy knew the effects were from a poison so the spell should reveal the effects from the poison.

Cassidy cast the spell through her staff and light shined through the crystal at the top of her staff projecting various symbols on the wall in front of Cassidy. These symbols were the representation of all of the magical effects going on in Cassidy’s body. These were presented with the same types of symbol used on runes in fact, but the ones that worked a body naturally were very complicated and precise, they flowed into and around each other in ways that not even experts really understand. Thankfully thought this intricate weaving of all of the different magical symbols that were natural meant that it was very easy to spot ones that didn’t belong. They were typically very rigid and easy to read compared to the ones around it, and Cassidy managed to find a set of runes floating in the mess that fit the description.

She committed the general structure of the runes to memory. All in all it wasn’t that complicated, a mix of water, lightning, and metal runes with some special instructions in between. Not something she could replicate exactly in a rune, but she felt confident she could get pretty close. She quickly sketched out her planned rune on a piece of paper, a reference piece for when she got to work making the real thing. She set the paper up against the wall of the changing table turned work station and began to prepare the spell she used to cut into runes.

She positioned her staff over her shoulder, and put a small plate on the changing table. After a few seconds of channeling magic a small beam shot out from the crystal in Cassidy’s staff, hitting the plate she sat onto the changing table harmlessly. The plate was made of bedrock, a notoriously magically inert rock. Cassidy didn’t know what the table was made out of, and she didn’t want to chance burning it. Once the beam was flowing steadily Cassidy tested it by making a small mark into the crystal. It worked as well as it ever did. With a smirk Cassidy got to actually working.

It was a delicate job, but one Cassidy was experienced at. Probably the biggest hurdle was making a rune for enchanting rather than general application, these needed to be smaller to be woven into whatever clothing it was going in, but Cassidy was up to the task. She actually found it to be a refreshing change of pace from her usual job. She even got a little fancy with it, making three separate pieces of crystal that were all carved to activate one after the other that would hopefully replicate the effect of the poison affecting Cassidy or something close to it.

Considering that this was a rune and not a poison Cassidy couldn’t make the effect constant, it would have to be an activated effect. Though the activation spell was the same simple spell that was used to activate other standard runes like ones used for lights. Hopefully Cassidy or someone else would be able to discretely send this spell over to Marta when she had it on her. Cassidy stopped channeling the spell firing from her staff and wiped her brow in satisfaction.

Cassidy looked at the creation curiously. She wondered what would happen if she used it on herself, she needed to test it anyway, though she wasn’t exactly the best test subject to be fair. Cassidy felt the weight of the soggy diaper she was wearing to remind her of that fact. This also meant that she didn’t have anything to lose however, and it’s not like she could make her situation worse.

Cassidy clutched the three pieces of the rune in her hand and cast the activation spell. She felt an odd tingle that meant it was doing something, but she wasn’t sure what it was doing just yet, though just a moment later it suddenly became clear what exactly it was doing. Abruptly, without even processing what was happening, Cassidy’s body pushed a mess into the seat of her diaper.

“Woah,” Cassidy said impressed. Only because she was paying attention to it did she notice she had also begun involuntarily wetting her diaper as well. It was telling perhaps that Cassidy was more impressed at the rune she had just created than she was concerned about the messy diaper she was in. Cassidy clenched the runes in her fist in satisfaction and carefully placed them into a small bag. With a hint of pride Cassidy noted that she only shaved off about a half an inch sphere from the crystal she was given. Brita could use the rest for whatever she needed for the wedding without even noticing the chunk missing. And with only the small chunk to work with Cassidy made a remote pants shitter. Truly she was a sorceress to be feared.

As Cassidy was packing away the supplies she was interrupted by a knock at the door. Cassidy figured it was probably Allyson, so she wasn't surprised to find her standing there when she opened the door.

“How’s the work going?” Allyson quickly stepped into the nursery shutting the door behind her.

“Amazing,” Cassidy said proudly. “I don’t wanna brag but I think I really outdid myself with this one. I found a way to replicate the effects on demand.”

“Oh really?” Allyson said amazed. “So you mean we can cast a spell and get Marta to wet herself whenever we want.”

“Oh she’ll do more than wet herself,” Cassidy said with a mischievous grin.

“Oh wow that is impressive,” Allyson said before thinking a moment. It only took her a minute to realize how Cassidy was able to determine this was how the rune worked. A sniff of the air confirmed her suspicion. “You did a really good job sweetie, but I think you might need a diaper change now.”

“What?” Cassidy was confused for a moment before realizing what Allyson meant. She had gotten so caught up in her excitement about making the thing that she forgot she was currently wearing the results of it. “Oh,” Cassidy paused awkwardly. “I’m sorry Ally. I didn’t think about...”

“Oh don’t fret over it silly. You change one messy diaper you’ve changed them all and I’ve already changed one of yours.”

“Yeah,” Cassidy blushed remembering what had happened yesterday.

“Come on let’s finish clearing off the changing table and get that stinky butt changed.” Cassidy blushed at the comment from Allyson, but Cassidy found that she wasn’t bothered enough by the comment to correct Allyson about, she may have even liked it a little. “Cas dear,” Allyson called back to the distracted Cassidy gesturing to the changing table offering Cassidy to hop up. Cassidy smiled and hopped onto the changing table not protesting at all as Allyson strapped her in.
