#7 of Diaper Dragon Daddy

With the shopping trip in full swing, a strange transformation has overcome our favourite little guy, and he's feeling even littler than usual. Let's see how the rest of his and his strange new family's day goes....



Suzy strode ahead of Agatha, carrying me in her arms. She showed me off to Archax, who flicked his tongue in surprise, blinking, as he saw how I'd been changed. Then he turned to the gnome mage.

"Greetings, Mistress Agatha. I see you are an accomplished mage, I have to congratulate you on your fine work... but why have you ensorceled my pet?"

"Greetings, Master Archax, peace to your flight. It seemed like the best idea at the time. Your -- is she your vassal? -- friend then," the mage continued, as the dragon shook his great head, "uh, Suzy here was seeing to your pet's needs but, ah, found herself without the necessary materials. Your, um, pet's needs weren't entirely met with the local supplies. With his permission, I have cast this benign spell upon him. It will pass, he could cancel it now if he chose, and he will return to normal after."

"Petey and I had a little poopy diapie situation Archax, didn't we, mister?" Suzy asked, as she tickled my tummy, "and I forgot to take a clean diaper with me. I didn't really want the little guy toddling around with a mushy butt," whispered Suzy. "This kind lady offered to solve the problem."

Archax pulled his head back, tongue flicking silently for a few moments, then he looked down, ashamed. "...Ah. Then I must commend you both, and beg Peter's forgiveness. I had totally forgotten! I don't have a clean diaper with me. I left them at home!" The dragon curled in on himself in distress, keening softly with sadness.

"Hmm," Suzy tapped a foot, frowning. "You know, I think you and I need to make sure you really do have everything in place to take care of Petey. I can't have one of my little diaperbutt pals not getting a change if they need one, not if you're going to keep him in diapers."

Archax looked down at the floor, ashamed. "I am sorry, Miss Suzy, I have failed in my duty."

"These things happen, don't they? Yes they do! Little Petey's sometimes have poopybutts and need diapie changes! Yes they... ahem. Yes, well. I can give you a list of necessities if need be. It's not hard to set up a diaper-bag to take with you every time you go out."

"If you will," Archax asked, suddenly, his deep voice pensive, "would you like to have dinner? I would be grateful. We can discuss all of this at length, make sure I am better prepared in the future."

"How about we go visit a baby store on the way home then? I need to visit my client and I know there's a suitable one near that, it's not far off your place. I'll let you load up on necessities there? First of all, you'll need an actual diaper-bag, diapers and a pack of wipes," Suzy said, ticking off her fingers. She hesitated for a moment. "To be honest that's most of it," she continued thoughtfully.

"Well, my work here is done," Agatha said, chuckling. "Sir dragon, if you need me, I'm sure you know how to find me."

Archax nodded. I hadn't seen them exchange numbers or anything of the sort. The thought Archax could just find this gnome was surprising. "Well met, Mistress Agatha, I shall gladly call upon you if I need you."

"Well, shall we head out? I don't think they have what we need here, though they might." Suzy took a few steps towards the exit.

Sensing my chance was fading, I pointed excitedly at the game store. "Abagoo! Goo! Ababwoo!" My words were still missing, it seemed, but the excited arm motions worked.

"What's that? You want a toy? Ohh, well, I'm not sure--" Suzy began. I turned on the puppy dog eyes. She wilted. "Oh, my god. That's not fair at all!"

"Ah," chuckled Agatha, barely turning as she walked away, "I did warn you about that. Take care!"

"Well," rumbled Archax apologetically, as the gnome disappeared into the crowds, "it's not like he's not allowed to buy a video game. He has been, ah, very good today. And he's been through a lot."

"And his daddy feels like spoiling him to say sorry, huh? And who wouldn't want to spoil such a cutiepie! Far be it for me to be the bad guy here, let's go see about that game. You know which one, champ?"

"Babajababa! Bababwooboo!" I said, pointing at the open world RPG I'd had my eye on earlier.

"Is it... this one?" She showed me a pink and sparkly one involving princesses. I pouted and crossed my arms, shaking my head. "How about... this one?"

"Bajabababa! Abagoogoo!" I reached for it with both arms. Suzy laughed, as did Archax.

"I think that's the one. Okay, I think we'll take this one."

"For... baby?" asked the cashier, raising one eyebrow.

"He's, uh, advanced for his age."

"Ah, is joke, yes?"

"Ba!" I said, pointing to a joystick of a nearby games console, doing my best to put on my Game Face. Bemused, Archax handed me the controller. I proceeded to get a 'Perfect!' in the fighting game against the computer opponent. Sure, it was easy mode, but it was still worthy of a mic drop. If I'd had a mic.

My words may have been missing, but my hand-eye coordination wasn't

Triumphantly, I took the computer game from Suzy and turned on the Puppy Dog towards the goblin cashier. It was super effective.

"What have I helped to create?" murmured Suzy.

"That is sixty dollars," said the goblin, taking the boxed game to get it out of the security packaging. As he looked back up, I had an evil plan.

I allowed my bottom lip to tremble, just a little. I opened my eyes to the widest they could possibly go, sniffling just the teensiest of sniffles, breathing in in short, sharp gasps.

"Umm, ahh... that will be... special price. F-ten percent off," said the goblin, trying to bite his tongue out. Score another one for team me.

"Sold," said Suzy. "I have my card, you can pay me back later?" She asked Archax, handing it out to the goblin.

"I am perfectly able to pay for my own hatchling's toys," grumbled Archax, as he nodded resignedly to the cashier to process it.

"I know. We're gonna have words when we get out of here, mister, about using your powers for good and not evil," Suzy said, trying to glare at me without meeting my gaze.

Uh oh, busted. I didn't think she'd stay mad at me for long though. As it turned out, she didn't.


For the curious, shopping with a dragon and a babysitter determined to make sure one of her charges is properly kitted out is exhausting. Even if you do get to sit in a complimentary pushchair.

I had no chance of getting free of it, seeing as not only was the front raised up between my crotch like one of those rollercoasters, making it impossible for me to get out without clambering over, but I was buckled securely in by five point restraints. Also like one of those rollercoasters, if you squinted hard enough. I'd been rather gleefully locked in by Suzy, with a "There! Now daddy's little angel is all snug and won't fall out!", although she did get me a juice box so I couldn't complain too much.

I think the final straw for them came after I was apparently snoring in the pushchair, having gotten bored enough to nod off. The next thing I knew, I was being lifted out by Archax as my chariot was being returned by Suzy.

"Welcome back to the land of the living, little one. Did you have a nice nap?"

"Abamabrrrr?" I asked sleepily, rolling my fists in my eyes and yawning.

"I think we'll have to take that as a yes," laughed Suzy. "How'd you feel about a quick bite to eat before we go home?"

"Amnamnamnambrrrr!" I said, yawning again.

"Good answer. I think."

We walked -- well, I was carried, they walked -- into a fast food joint. Despite pointing at various items on the menu rather noisily, I was ignored, with Suzy and Archax instead discussing what they wanted. I had a kids meal purchased for me. As we headed away from the till, I heard Suzy stop one of the cashiers.

"Hey, do you have, umm, we have a baby and--"

"Oh! Of course! Let me just get you a highchair. Bear with me. We have a changing room in back if you need a change, just let me or another of my coworkers know and we'll buzz you in."

Suzy lifted me up and sniffed at my butt. "He needs a change, but we'll be good until after. You know how little diaperbutts are."

The cashier chuckled as she returned, a large highchair with integrated serving tray held in her hands. "Oh, I know. Food in one end, poop out the other. Uh... enjoy your meal?" She blushed as she set up the highchair, before demonstrating how it worked. "Sorry, not everybody wants to know about poop when they're eating."

Suzy chuckled too. "With this little guy? Don't worry, we're immune. Do you have a bib?" I squawked in complaint at this, as she strapped me into the highchair, locking the serving tray in in front of me.

"Of course! How about this, I'll bring the bib and then fetch your food?"

"That would be wonderful. Oh, and can you switch his fries to mini carrots?"

"Of course! Back in a tick!"

I must have been pouting very hard, because Suzy grew sorrowful. "Ohh, honey, don't worry. You can share my fries and I'll share your carrots, okay?"

Dammit, I wasn't the only one with Puppy Dog Eyes power. I crossed my arms and sulked, especially when the large bib was fastened around my neck, but the sight of hot food being put in front of me cheered me right up. Except it was put right onto the serving tray. Well, if that was how they wanted it...

Archax raised one eye-ridge as he finished his own food. "Are all human hatchlings this messy?"

Suzy sighed happily, nodding. "They are. It's a good thing we got him that bib or we'd need to bathe the entire child by the end of this and probably burn all the clothes."

I hadn't expected to get into this quite so much, but there's something... liberating about being encouraged to shove fist-fulls of fries in your mouth, smearing the ketchup from them on your face, your bib and the rest of your food. True to her word, Suzy had shared her fries with me in exchange for a good amount of mini carrots. I'd eaten my portion of mini carrots, then moved onto the fries, smearing those in ketchup. Finishing them, and wiping my hands on the bib, I'd moved onto the burger, which Suzy had helpfully split into four pieces. I was small, so whilst it was supposed to be a kid sized meal, it still seemed large. I still finished it, making faces and blowing raspberries as Suzy and Archax took turns wiping my face with the bib. I then grabbed my drink with both hands and drank it noisily.

"Even when he's being a little piggy, he's cute," noted Suzy, sniggering. She finished her own food and leaned back, then sniffed. "You know, cute as he is, he's your little bundle of poop today, and I've changed a messy diaper once."

What? But I hadn't... wait, now that I thought about it, I could feel that familiar pressure. Oh well, I looked the part, might as well live it, since I didn't have much choice. I groaned, leaning forwards as I pushed, screwing up my eyes. It was easier, this time, to push the warm, soft mass into my diapers. Easier, but no less stinky.

"Of course, Suzy, I can't expect you to see to my hatchling without remuneration."

I watched them share a look, through my squint, both of them chuckling.

"Okay, let's leave Petey Potty Pants to finish his business for a minute or two, then we can play rock-paper-scissors for it?"

"How about a shared duty? I will change him, and you will supervise. I am sure I have plenty to learn."

Suzy chuckled as she unlocked the tray and removed my bib, wiping at my face one last time mid-diaper-filling. "Finished yet, champ?" I stuck my thumb in my mouth, almost instinctively, and nodded silently as I sucked it. "Okay then, up you come. Time to get you out of that diaper."

True to her word, I was unlocked and freed from my prison before being lifted carefully into the air.

"Phew, is it time to mention most of my charges are being toilet trained?" Archax rumbled disapprovingly as Suzy spoke. She chuckled. "Relax, big guy, I knew what I was getting into when I signed up. I'm kidding! Kidding! Come on, let's get that mushy butt seen to. Er, miss? Could you... we have a diaper situation here."

The same cashier who'd helped before gave a perky smile. "Of course. Er, sir, you may have to duck a little if you want to go in too," she said to Archax. "I'm sorry, but the facilities themselves should be roomy enough." She moved back behind the registers, then pushed a button. A discrete buzzer sounded and Suzy opened the door to the changing rooms, holding it open for Archax.

"That's no problem. Thank you," the dragon said, as he ducked inside.

Moments later, I was experiencing the familiar sensations of being undressed until my rather full diaper was exposed. Archax was delicate, but a lot less experienced than Suzy. She guided him as he worked. He was gentle, but his claws shook. Probably because I was still so small.

"Let's get the worst of it off. That's right, you're doing fine! Now, let's see now he's clean... here! This is protective cream, it will help prevent rashes. I got you the big bottle because normally this little tushy is a lot bigger, so don't... oh, well, that's okay, too much doesn't hurt." I squealed as a large dollop of cold cream was splurted onto my delicate backside. I was then covered almost head to foot in babypowder. "Ah, yes, again, you can't really use too much, uh, but that was maybe a teensy bit more than necessary."

"I am sorry, mistress Suzy," the dragon apologized.

"It's okay. You're nervous. He's normally a lot less fragile."

"He is so small like this!" Archax almost wailed.

"Well, he'll be back to normal in no time, eh? I know you'll do fine until then. At least he's nice and dry now, and smells a lot sweeter. That's right, lift both legs, pull the diaper under... actually, here's a tip for you: make sure the leg-guards are free of the diaper body, yep, just run your claws down the inseam, carefully, don't rip it... now, ruffle the sides of the crotch of the diaper together. Not too hard, you just want the diaper to bend and flex rather than fold. It'll be more important with the larger diapers."

"What is this for?" Archax asked, tilting his head as he rubbed the sides of the diaper together.

"It breaks up the fluff that's been overpacked during manufacture and shipping. With it loosened like that, you'll not only get a better fit, but it will absorb better and leak less. Pretty important for Petey here, from what I can see."

"Ahh, that is then good to know! I will take your advice to heart. Now, I believe you want me to lift his legs, then--"

"That's right, flatten the diaper, then fit it, pulling it into place, then do one side, then the other. Again, the bigger diapers you've got him in normally have those four tapes, and they're bigger, so you'll have to repeat it.... But that's it! Perfect! Now we do the clothes up--" my onesie was pulled tight down as I was secured into it, the soft bulk of my diapers held securely against my body by the fabric and snaps, then I was made even more secure by the overalls as they were fastened up. "--and now for the most important part. I can't do it to Petey when he's normal sized, but you can... and you should now too."

"What? What have I forgotten?" Archax asked.

"Oh, it's very important. You pick him up, and you hold him, tight, and tell him everything will be alright."

Archax looked down at me, frozen. Then, slowly, he reached down. His great claws, which had seemed so fierce the first time we'd met, very gingerly as if I might break at any second, scooped me up. He lifted me into a hug, pressing me against his body. He was surprisingly warm, and once again I was surprised how soft his hide was, like premium leather.

"It's okay, little one," came the words, almost too soft to understand. Archax' voice was a low rumble. "I am here for you. Everything will be alright." Archax was surprised as his shoulder was suddenly wet. "What? Why? Why are you crying? I am here, it will be fine! Please, little one, stop!"

"Shhh, Archax, let him cry. This is why you need to tell them how you feel every time, because when they're this small, they depend on you so much." Suzy wiped her own eyes, sniffing slightly. "It'll be okay. Come on, I think it's time to go home."


I must have fallen asleep at some point in the journey, because the next thing I knew, we were entering in through Archax' front door.

"Okay, honey, you can drop the spell now," said Suzy.

"Hajabababwoo, babababa," I babbled dismissively, toddling off into the house as Archax put me down. I was going to be like this as long as it lasted, why not? "Abbabababamamama," I continued, easing myself first up the stairs to my room to get my portable gaming system, then down the stairs again -- backwards on my tummy since the steps were so big -- with it. "Ajababababwoobaba!" I said, holding out the gaming system and clutching at the toy that Suzy held.

"Hmm, what do you think, Daddy?" asked Suzy, her lips pursed in thought.

"I think he can play a little, at least. He did eat all his dinner after all."

"Well alright then," chuckled Suzy. "Say please?" she asked me, fixing me with her best babysitter gaze.

"Abrr... abrr... prrr... prrrreeeasse?" I managed. I didn't even need to use the Puppy Dog Eyes to have Suzy melt.

"Aww, you're doing so well with your words today, little mister! Alright then, let Auntie Suzy open the package and get the game out, but, if you insist on being tiny, then you're going to play... right here, on this rug. If you wander off without permission, you'll be in trouble, okay?" Suzy had moved a coffee table off of the large plush rug that Archax had in front of his television out of the way. "And to make sure you're comfy, I have a blankie and a pillow and some blocks for you! I'll go get a sippy whilst you settle in, alright?"

True to her word, Suzy opened up the game she'd bought -- I knew I'd bought it, or would have after some figuring out, but it still felt like she'd got it for me -- and handed it down to me along with a sippy cup of juice. She also hadn't been lying about the blanket and pillow, which were large enough for when I was normal-sized, or the painted wooden blocks, which... weren't, I guess. Not that it mattered, I'd never actually play with them. I was just going to stack them, to one side, not at all like a fort, and snuggle up to my pillow behind them as I settled in to play, legs kicking in the air as I lay on my tummy over the pillow.

The melodic tones of the newest episode in my favourite RPG soon filled my senses as the game opened up around me. I barely noticed when I was picked up and had a bottle presented to me, though I did momentarily fuss when I was placed over a shoulder to be burped after finishing it and had to rearrange my grip. It was only when my head butted into the console for some reason -- what had I been doing? Oh yes, the side quest -- that it was finally taken from me.

"Alright, mister, that's enough gaming for you for today. I think it's time you had a little nap. Nope, no more, no fussing or you won't get it back tomorrow," Suzy scolded, taking it from me. I squawked in annoyance, but was shushed with a finger-tap. "Now, now. Be good or I'll take you upstairs right away instead of letting you start your nap down here with Mommy and Daddy, eh?"

She pulled another blanket up to my chin as she placed me carefully on the comfy makeshift bed against the pillow, on my back, with a stuffed dragon she'd acquired from somewhere -- what else had they sneaked into their shopping trip? -- to keep me company.

"You take a little nap right here, okay? And then when you've done with that, you can get up and play again for a bit before bedtime, maybe? I promise we won't go anywhere. Archax will give you a kiss, and you can close your eyes for just a few minutes, sweetie, alright?"

I complained, of course, but her soft words must have contained some sort of spell -- probably taught to her by that gnome when I wasn't looking -- because I was feeling at least a little bit sleepy. The floor rumbled as Archax moved over then bent his whole frame down to place his muzzle, larger than my entire body, up against my head.

"Sleep well, little one. You are safe and... and loved."

Well alright, I could sleep for a bit, I supposed, if it made Daddy happy.
