Fashionably Foalish (Private with theJozza)
 

Sweetie Belle was starting to regret her willingness to help her sister with this in the first place. Currently she stood in the hotel room she was sharing with her sister, watching as various articles of clothing magically floated by, doing her best to not be bored out of her mind as she waited for Rarity to come to a decision. Every so often she'd shift slightly, eliciting a light crinkle from the diaper wrapped around her flank.

Sweetie Belle still wore diapers, though this was not uncommon for a filly of her status, that being one without a Cutiemark, traditionally, once you got a Cutiemark is the age you would start toilet training, of course there were exceptions, just because a pony got their Cutiemark, it didn't always mean they were ready for potty training, likewise, there were cases of ponies training before getting their Cutiemark. Either way, Sweetie Belle fell a bit into both, in that she definitely didn't have her Cutiemark, and even if she did, her continence wasn't exactly stellar.

Though it was because of said diaper that Sweetie Belle was standing here at all! She had been entered into a fashion show, a show for young fillies with a stipulation that the outfits had to be designed with a diaper in mind. Sweetie Belle didn't quite know the technical aspects as to why it was like that, just that Rarity had mentioned something about 'sponsors' and Sweetie Belle didn't inquire any further, okay with it because that meant every pony competing like her would also be wearing a diaper.

For Rarity, this was an interesting opportunity to design clothing of a different variety that she was used to. After all, the market for clothing in regards to fillies was a bit lacking outside of formal wear for formal occasions, so the possibility of getting in on a new trend of cloths for young ponies seemed like a great idea, and Sweetie Belle made the perfect pony to help Rarity with this endeavor.

"Come on Sis, it can't be that big of a deal, they all look good!" Sweetie Belle said in an effort to get her sister to just go with an outfit, since the sooner that happened the sooner she could move again. They were currently in Manehattan and Sweetie Belle wanted to do more than just try on clothes while they were here for the fashion show contest thing.

Rarity for her part, as was typical of the fashionista, was doing a fair bit of multitasking. Simultaneously picking the outfit, or rather outfits, that Sweetie Belle would be wearing in the first stage of the competition tomorrow, while also unpacking both of their luggages, and of course setting up areas of their room to serve as her makeshift workshop for the next week. Upon hearing Sweetie Belle's question, she sighs and walks over to her sister.

"Sweetie Belle, precious, I understand this is a bit monotonous for you, but believe me when I say that it is vitally important I make the right decision at this stage. As they say you only get one chance to make a first impression. So we need to make sure your opening appearance tomorrow memorable," she says with her usual serious tone, before smiling and giving her sister's hair a gentle tousle. "Don't worry, just a little longer and then we'll go out, get a bit to eat, and do some of that sightseeing I promised. Rest assured that whatever happens in the contest we'll be having fun together." She says with a wink before turning back to her floating outfits and supplies, though now they were moving a bit faster and Rarity did seem to be starting to set some back aside. After all, she really didn't want to keep her sister waiting too long, seeing as how she'd already done so much.

A part of her had been a bit unsure about all this, on the one hoof this was a pretty high profile fashion contest, with several of the biggest names in attendance and most of them agreeing it had the potential to set the tone on fashion for fillies like Sweetie Belle for year to come. Not to mention inspire clothing trends for actual foals, after all these outfits she's viewing could be downsized easily enough and it was certainly easier to have somepony like Sweetie Belle model it than a real baby. However on the other hoof, Rarity did feel a little unsure, even guilty, about having her sister serve as her model for this competition. After all, Sweetie Belle wasn't exactly...proud of her condition. A fact Rarity was all too familiar with having had to comfort the filly on more than one occasion after she came home from school in tears due to the large amount of bullying she experienced due to both her lack of cutie mark and worse than average continence. Of course all this made Rarity that much more determined to make sure her sister looked her best on that stage.

"Aha!" Rarity says with a smile as she finally singles out a dress. "Perfect!" She says levitating it towards Sweetie Belle. It's gold and pink lolita style, with extra ruffles inside the skirt to better go with the bulge of Sweetie Belle's diaper. "What do you think?"

Sweetie Belle wasn't sure she really believed her sister, after all, she was just one of a bunch of other fillies competing, why would it matter if she looked really good the first time, shouldn't she want to look really good every time? Her mane tousled, as least Rarity was telling her what she wanted to hear, not that Rarity hadn't said such things in the past and then Sweetie Belle had found herself still standing around for quite some time.

Though Sweetie Belle did notice her sister seemed to be moving more quickly, so at least it seemed Rarity had meant it. Of course despite moving more quickly, Sweetie still couldn't help but let her mind wander as she stood there, mostly thinking about the city they were in and all the neat stuff they could go see. The fact that her diaper was currently warming as she wet it completely missed the fillies notice, too occupied with her daydreaming to really notice. Though with how long she'd been there waiting for her sister, it was practically inevitable that she'd tinkle before this was through. Not a heavy wetting though, her diaper held well, likely because Rarity bought her very high quality diapers.

It wasn't until her sister floated over the outfit that Sweetie's mind came back into focus and she noticed the sudden heat around her rear, though that was quickly disregarded as she focused instead on the dress Rarity held in the air in front of her. Of course it looked great. "It looks great sis!" Truthfully, Sweetie Belle didn't have much of a sense for 'fashion' and often she just figured Rarity knew what she was talking about, which is part of why Sweetie Belle didn't exactly understand what the whole process was. "Why's it got so many ruffles though?" Sweetie questioned, legitimately not knowing.

"Oh well you'll see in a minute," Rarity replies, stifling a bit of an awkward giggle. "Now just hold still and let's get this on you. She walks closer, bringing both the dress and a few of her tools over in her magic so she'd be able to make any necessary adjustments as she got it on Sweetie Belle.

Of course as soon as she got closer Rarity notices the state of Sweetie Belle's diaper. Not that it was full of leaking or anything, but having cared for her little sister for so many years the fashionista was fairly adept at reading the signs of her condition. Though she had to admit it was a bit of an advantage having a model that could stay in place for a while and not have to worry about needing a bathroom break.

In any case, Rarity could tell that Sweetie Belle could wait for a change so she proceeds to get the dress onto her sister, making a few tweaks here and there to ensure it fit as well an as comfortably as possible.

"Aannnd done! Magnifique!" Rarity squeals as she steps back. The dress was a perfect fit on Sweetie Belle and went with her natural colors perfectly. Moreover, the extra ruffles did exactly what they were supposed to do, covering and spreading outward along the bulge created by Sweetie's diaper and giving the back of the dress a greater flourish to it. "What do you think?" Rarity asks levitating a mirror over for Sweetie Belle to see herself. "I think you look absolutely darling."

Sweetie Belle just tilted her head slightly in a confused manner. "I've been holding still this whole time.." Sweetie Belle replied, it wasn't entirely true, but she'd been relatively still for most of the time. She watched as her sister floated over the dress and some other stuff, she was more than okay with stuff like needles or scissors being near her, Rarity had perfect control with her magic when it came to this stuff.

Of course it was never fun being put into a dress, part of why Sweetie Belle didn't really get dresses in the first place, it was always difficult to get them on by yourself, and when somepony else helped you, it was like being squeezed into a sock that covered your whole body. Of course Sweetie knew that her sister pulling or tugging on the dress was just what she had to do to get it on and make it look the best it could.

Once the dress was on, Sweetie Belle began looking at herself, inevitably turning in place as she attempted to look at the whole thing, until Rarity put a mirror in front of her and she could see more easily just by looking into it. The Sweetie Belle that stared back at her looked way too cute for her liking. "I look super frilly." Sweetie Belle said, since she didn't think she looked bad per say, it just kind of hung in the back of her mind that this made her look more foalish than say.. Something like Rarity's other stuff, dresses that would make a mare look more beautiful, this made her look, more cute. Which wasn't bad she guessed, just.. It was hard to explain really. Though Sweetie Belle eventually noticed just where the ruffles were over her flank, and how it made it look like Sweetie Belle's flank was huge! Sweetie Belle tried to look behind herself and couldn't really tell, but looking back in the mirror at an angle, it was much more obvious. Thankfully she'd only have to wear this for the fashion show, she couldn't imagine going around like this all the time.

“Ohhh you look absolutely darling!” Rarity squeals and then she surges forward, pulling Sweetie Belle into a hug. She did truly think her sister was one of the cutest fillies she’d ever seen, snd frankly it was a bit of a disappointment that she didn’t enjoy getting dressed up as much as Rarity would like her to. In fact she’d never told Sweetie this but she credited her sister for being her original inspiration for her fashion career. When she was a filly Rarity had loved nothing more than dressing up her baby sister, either in her own clothing or the foal outfits their parents bought, which Rarity tended to “customize” or at least try to. Of course back then Sweetie was too little to really understand what was going on and usually was just happy to play with her sister.

Thinking back on those treasured memories fills Rarity with a newfound warmth as she realizes just how similar their current situation is to those old days, even down to the fact that Sweetie Belle is still diapered.

“You know I really do appreciate you doing this for me Sweetie Belle precious,” Rarity coos as she cuddles her sister. “It means so much, and I promise no matter what happens in the competition this will be the best week ever…though,” she pauses to grin and boop Sweetie Belle’s snout. “Finally seeing you in the dress I am now certain we can’t lose. There simply couldn’t be another filly as wonderfully adorable as you.” Rarity coos and nuzzles Sweetie Belle, clearly in full cuddling mode now. But after a bit she gets her fill and eases Sweetie down with a smile.

“But I digress, you must be hungry after waiting so long,” Rarity says as she starts to slowly remove the dress. “Let’s get you out of this so we can go get lunch,” she pauses as Sweetie Belle’s wet diaper is exposed, “after a quick change of course.”

Sweetie Belle is suddenly squeezed by her sister, not quite expecting it she sort of just lets herself be squeezed like a stuffed toy. Not that Sweetie Belle dislikes it though, at least after the initial sudden squeeze. There was also a sudden increase in warmth to her diaper too at the sudden hug, a little more pee squeezed out thanks to her sister, given how close they were Rarity would likely feel the heat radiating off of it. Sweetie Belle quickly settled and enjoyed the cuddling from her sibling, nuzzling back a little.

"I know I know. It's okay, it's not a big deal." Sweetie Belle replied, the whole fashion thing may not have been her favorite, but getting to spend time with her sister at all was nice. After Rarity left home and started her clothing business, Sweetie Belle basically never saw her, that is until their parents began to drop her off with her sister more and more, to the point that it was usually just easier to stay with Rarity given Rarity lived directly in Ponyvile and relatively close to the school compared to her parents.

Sweetie Belle couldn't help but roll her eyes a bit at how Rarity kept calling her adorable and such. Not even their parents fawned over her as much as her sister did, it was a bit embarrassing, though there was definitely a part of Sweetie Belle that soaked up the attention. Her ears flicked as Rarity tapped her snout, and soon she was put down. "Yeah!" Sweetie Belle exclaimed, before adding. "It can wait! It's not going to leak." Obviously not wanting to sit here and wait any longer.

Her diaper definitely had a yellowing to it now, and it looked a little more bloated than when she'd wet it just a little bit ago thanks to Rarity putting the squeeze on her bladder by accident. Of course just because it wasn't in desperate need of a change, doesn't mean it shouldn't be. After all white fur tended to stain easier, so if Sweetie Belle sat in her used diapers long enough, there would definitely be stains on her fur until she got a deep clean.

However, Rarity was not having any of that and takes hold of Sweetie Belle in her magic. Given her usual taste for all things dirty, it was fair to say that Rarity didn't "enjoy" changing her sister's diapers. However, she did take it seriously as both a sister and a caretaker for her. Besides, she wasn't about to let Sweetie wear one of her dresses on top of pee-stained fur.

"Now, now, Sweetie Belle," Rarity tuts as she also levitates over a gem-studded saddle back, which she opens to reveal changing supplies, including an extra plush hand knit changing mat that she spreads on the floor. "No sister, or model for that matter, of mine is going to deal with diaper rash. Besides, if you get changed now there's less of a chance we'll have to interrupt our fun later. Now lay down and let your big sister clean you up." She says, with her usual gentle and firm tone of voice that will make sure Sweetie Belle realizes that this isn't up for debate.

After dropping her magical hold from the filly, Rarity turns her attention on the diaper bag and starts pulling out all the necessary supplies. In addition to making her own changing mat Rarity always took it upon herself to make sure Sweetie Belle had the best products for her condition that were available. Rarity had decided that f her sister would have to deal with diapers until she got her cutie mark Rarity was determined that she do so in the best way possible. She starts by bring out a package of scented wipes and special foal powder that both concealed any smells and left no trace of mess on her flank. Of course she also kept Sweetie Belle in top quality diapers that were both comfortable and had maximum capacity. Of course she made sure they had bright and enticing designs as well, with the one she pulled out now with a charming starry pattern inspired by her friend Twilight's cutie mark.

Sweetie Belle already knew she lost when she found herself being lifted into the air via magic, of course she also knew she already lost because trying to postpone a diaper change with Rarity was basically impossible, though it didn't stop her from trying. It was times like these when she wished her sister wasn't as bugged by gross stuff, thinking of her friend Apple Bloom, and her sister Applejack, where Applejack usually only changed her sibling when it was needed as opposed to just doing it right away like Rarity.

"Fiiiine..." Sweetie Belle whines slightly as she's laid upon the changing mat. Getting a diaper change would also mean laying down and staying still until it was done! Sweetie Belle was definitely starting to feel antsy, she wanted to do stuff, move around! She couldn't help but fidget and move her hind legs a little. She was laid out on the mat, her tail laying out directly towards Rarity.

Sweetie Belle didn't really know what to think about the diaper designs, they were kind of neat, it was fun having diapers that weren't just plain colors, even if at times she would get flak for them from other fillies and colts. Of course Sweetie Belle didn't have the heart to tell that to Rarity, since her sister seemed to really enjoy getting diapers that were more complex than plain white. Sweetie Belle wondered if her sister would ever just make a diaper for her, given cloth diapers existed, often Sweetie Belle thought that Rarity would never do that because the idea of her using said diaper would mortify her sister, but it could just be that Rarity never considered cloth diapers at all, there were far more bulky and made the flank even more pronounced. Though it also occurred to Sweetie Belle that there would probably be fillies wearing them during the fashion show.

Rarity starts humming to herself as she gets to work, her magic simultaneously unfastening the tapes on Sweetie Belle's old diaper while also unfolding the new one. As with her fashion, Rarity had fine tuned using her magic to deal with her sister's diaper to perfection, of course this was partially due to the fact that she always wanted to minimize any actual physical contact she had with her sisters..."messes."

With her usual precision and gentleness she works the wipes all over Sweetie Belle's flank until there's not a trace of urine left, after which she drops all the wipes into the old diaper and balls it up, depositing it in a portable diaper pail she always brings with them. Finally, she slides the new diaper under her and dusts her with foal powder, this time moving in closer and using her hoof to massage it into her sister's skin."

"And, done!" Rarity says as she folds it up and fastens the tapes at the perfect snugness. "Now my precious little sister is clean as a whistle and ready for some food and fun." She grins and quickly levitates both the saddlebag that serves as her purse and the one for sweetie belle's diaper bag onto her back. "Now come on, Sweetie Belle. I know this wonderful little deli just two blocks from here that you will absolutely adore." She grins and heads for the door gesturing for Sweetie Belle to follow, but then turns. "Oh unless you'd like to put something else on first?" Rarity asks, not sure if Sweetie Belle would want something to cover her diaper. Granted it wasn't that uncommon to see a filly or colt Sweeties age still in diapers, even in Manehattan, but she knew that Sweetie could be a bit touchy about it when she was in a new place.

Sweetie Belle was never really sure how to feel about getting her diaper changed, especially since it was always done with magic. She never really wondered about this before, her sister and her parents are all unicorns, so for the longest time she was only ever changed with magic. Then she became friends with Apple Bloom, who was an Earth pony, and so was Bloom's older sister, Applejack. Sweetie Belle recalled one time in the past when Sweetie had even taken to replacing Rarity with Applejack, for a variety of reasons, but one she never admitted to was the fact that getting your diaper changed by hoof and mouth was really nice. It was probably super gross and Rarity would never go for it and Sweetie would never ask her sister either since she knew the answer, but there was something more comforting about when it wasn't done with magic, it wasn't a feeling Sweetie Belle could properly explain.

Of course despite using magic, Rarity still took quite a bit of time to change her, it likely took Rarity just as long to change her as it took Applejack without magic because of how thorough Rarity was when cleaning her up. Not that she minded this of course, Sweetie Belle had heard from both Apple Bloom and Scootaloo that diaper rash was not fun, Sweetie hadn't had it before, or if she had, she was too young at the time to recall it now. The feeling of the wipes moving across her body was nice though, if a bit cold, of course having her warm diaper stripped away didn't help with that too.

When Sweetie was completely clean is when Rarity got hooves on, and this was Sweetie Belle's favorite part, it was hard to not have a small smile on her face as Rarity worked the power through her fur and into her skin. After enjoying the feeling for a moment, Sweetie Belle rolls over, feeling the plush diaper on her flank. Then she quickly followed after her sister, stopping at the question. Sweetie Belle looked back at her flank, seeing the diaper on it, thinking about the ponies seeing her. On one hoof, nopony knew she was diapered here, and she could hide that fact. On the other hoof, she'd just spent a lot of time trying on dresses and such and she wasn't exactly eager to put on another one, plus if she was wearing a dress, Rarity would probably fuss over it and anypony would probably think she was part of the fashion show that was happening and know she was in a diaper regardless!

"Uhm... Maybe if you have something that wouldn't draw much attention?" Sweetie Belle asked, seeing as modest was not usually a style of outfit Rarity made. "And it can't just be something to cover my flank either, everypony would just assume why I'd be covering it." Sweetie Belle mentioned. Maybe they could find something for her to wear that wouldn't make it obvious to other ponies that she was still diapered, though the lovely scent of foal powder wafting off of her would probably clue in anypony that came near her.

"Not draw attention....," Rarity says biting her lip as she glances over at the piles and suitcases of clothing. Truth be told, that wasn't a sentence that Rarity usually thought about when designing clothing. If anything, it was the antithesis of her entire designer thought process. She supposed she could throw something together quickly...but she'd already made Sweetie wait so long and frankly, she was getting hungry too. "You know what, why bother," Rarity says turning back to Sweetie Belle with a smile and starting to lead her out of the room. "After all, with the contest starting tomorrow I'd be shocked if you're the only filly walking around in diapers. I doubt anypony will even give you a second glance...well you know aside from the throngs of ponies enamored with how adorable you are." Rarity says with a final coo, before leaning over to nuzzle Sweetie Belle's cheek as they enter the elevator.

Soon enough the two of them are on the street, and thankfully it seems that Rarity's prediction was exactly correct. There are several fillies all around who are clearly diapered. Some look a little younger than Sweetie, but the majority seem about her age or even older. As such, mostly the two of them just get a few glances or a friendly greeting as they walk down the street.

However, occasionally when they pass too closely by another pair of what appears to be fellow contestants, there's a definite tension in the air, at least from the adult designers. Most of them simply turn away or pick up their pace, but a few give the sisters a dirty look or two. Rarity stays stoic and quiet for the entire walk as they approach the deli. As much as she loved fashion competitions, she had learned from hard experience just how bitter and rough they could get...especially when they were as high profile as this one. Of course she wanted to do her best to shield her sweet and innocent sister from this and picks up the pace as they cross the street to the restaurant. Fortunately, upon entering there don't appear to be too many of the other contestants inside and the two of them quickly find a table.

"So what would you like, Sweetie Belle," Rarity asks, levitating her a menu. "You can get whatever you want for being so patient earlier."

Sweetie Belle had a similar conclusion as her sister, though it was a little out of left field since Rarity seemed to genuinely enjoy dressing her up. Sweetie Belle nuzzled back against her sister as they went into the elevator and eventually onto the streets. There were plenty of other ponies in diapers, so Sweetie fit right in. Though things were a bit awkward, Sweetie Belle didn't quite notice as many looks from the ponies Rarity noticed, but Sweetie Belle did notice some, particularly from the fillies her age, looks that reminded her of her bully Diamond Tiara.

Sweetie Belle does her best to keep those thoughts out of her mind though, she was just here to enjoy herself! Outside of the fashion show anyway, and once they head into the place and get to a table, Sweetie Belle let's herself relax a bit more. "Oh?" Sweetie Belle responds as she attempts to levitate the menu herself, only doing so for a brief moment as she holds it in her light green aura, then it drops and she scrambles to catch it in her hooves to look at it.

Sweetie Belle looks over the menu, of course her eyes instantly drift to the dessert section, Rarity said 'anything' after all, though she quickly turns her eyes away because even though Rarity said that, dessert might not be on the table. So going more realistically, Sweetie Belle spots something she thinks looks good, after all, it has a picture, unlike a lot of other things where it's just the name and description. "Can I get this?" Sweetie Belle asks as she sets the menu down, pointing her hoof to the picture. "It's called rat-ta-tolly?" Sweetie Belle says with difficulty pronouncing the word ratatouille. To her it looked like a multicolored vegetable dish, mostly it just looked interesting, and Sweetie Belle had it on decent authority that interesting things usually tasted good.

"Oh wonderful choice darling," Rarity nods with a smile, though she does have to restrain a bit of a chuckle at her sister's pronunciation. (Really should get around to teaching her french. After all is she's going to be modeling for me it can only help.). Rarity thinks to herself. "Their ratatouille is to die for, honestly I might just have to get that myself...oh and perhaps some breadsticks. After all we did wait a little extra for lunch, and frankly I'm quite hungry." Rarity says with a smile, knowing all too well how much her sister loved break sticks. After all, she meant what she said about making this the best week ever, and what better way than by indulging her sister a bit. And of course, Rarity too had taken a look at the dessert section, and the most definitely weren't leaving without some of those.

"Now then, waiter," Rarity calls over a server. "Let's see we would like two orders of your ratatouille, please. Oh and we would also like a basket of your divine breadsticks for a starter, please," Rarity lists out their orders, being sure to already slip the waiter a tip of a few gemstones. "And as a heads up we will certainly be choosing a dessert later." She grins, both at the waiter and Sweetie Belle. The waiter smiles back, nods and walks away, leaving the sisters to chat.

Of course as Rarity is sculpting their order and starting to chat with her sister, she fails to notice a particular pony in the corner. Somepony who has been glaring at her since she entered. An earth pony with a blue scarf and three buttons for a cutie mark.

Sweetie Belle simply nodded in satisfaction over the mention of bread sticks, she did enjoy them quite a bit, though she often had a habit of eating too many of them given they were often just repeatedly placed back at the table whenever they were nearly gone, at least at some places. As Rarity calls over a waiter she sits quietly, not really wanting to draw attention to herself, though she can't help but look a bit surprised at the mention of dessert. Not that she would complain of course, getting a dessert would be wonderful!

She contains her excitement though, simply looking at the menu again where it laid, her eyes crossing over to the desserts section, and although she didn't mean to put all of her focus there, it was hard not to notice her just staring at the menu where it was, especially given the desserts section had far more pictures of the food, likely for the exact purpose of enticing ponies to the delicious confections they offered. This is also a good way to keep Sweetie Belle from noticing if anypony is looking at her, though she does feel a moment of that sensation you get when you think somepony might be staring at you, it quickly subsides without Sweetie Belle acting upon it.

Rarity smiles upon seeing Sweetie Belle's delight on the mention of dessert, and she chuckles a bit as she watches her sister energetically look through the menu.

"Why so surprised, precious," Rarity coos, as she reaches over to pat Sweetie Belle's head. "I did promise that this was going to be the best week ever didn't I? And how could we possibly have that without sweets? Besides, you can't come to Manehattan without sampling the full range of culinary delights this city has to offer."

"Fair, but don't you think you should be careful?" A voice comes from behind the sisters, with a fairly patronizing tone. "After all you don't want to risk your model going on stage tomorrow with a too full stomach. Might screw her up." Rarity's eyes narrow a bit at this unasked for and less than cordial advice, but she manages to work up a smile and starts to turn to face the new pony.

"Miss, I appreciate your concern, but I can assure you a good sized lunch will be no detriment to my sister's.....You," Rarity stops short as she finally sees the pink earth pony looking at them. Her smile immediately contorting into a scowl. "Suri Polomare..."

"Oh Rarity you remember me, darling," Suri says with a tight smile and a sarcastic flourish on the last word. "Gosh it's been so long. Why I haven't seen you since....oh yeah, you darn near destroyed my career and stole my victory!" She grunts, scowling back.

"I stole YOUR victory?" Rarity raises an eyebrow. "Funny, I seem to remember it was almost quite literally the other way around. As for this, "destroying your career" allegation, I have no idea what you're talking about."

"Oh don't play innocent with me, little miss perfect," Suri growls leaning in. "Ever since that fashion week my reputation's been in tatters thanks to you and that traitor Coco telling stories about me. Hardly any pony wants to hire or work with me anymore! I barely managed to get an invite to this contest!"

"Well I suppose that's unfortunate, but that has nothing to do with me," Rarity says, maintaining a calm tone as she crosses her forehooves. "After all I fail to see how it is my fault that ponies are unwilling to do business with a proven liar, cheater, and thief!"

Sweetie Belle was about to reply when a sudden voice caught her off guard, a voice she didn't particularly care for given it seemed to be actively saying she shouldn't have dessert! Of course Sweetie Belle would have been inclined to just ignore it if not for the fact that the mare and her sister kept conversing, as if they knew each other. Though it quickly became apparent that they knew each other because they didn't seem to like each other.

Sitting next to the two mares as they went on about how they knew each other, Sweetie Belle seemed to shrink away a little, it was one thing to see her friends argue, with say, Diamond Tiara and such, but to see her sister saying such things to another pony, and for said pony to be saying such things at her sister in such an angry way. Sweetie Belle didn't like it one bit.

Of course she knew better than to interrupt, and simply hoped that whoever this Suri Polomare was, she wouldn't be sticking around too much longer, though Sweetie Belle heard she was going to be in the contest, which likely meant that she had a filly she'd have modeling dresses for her. Sweetie Belle hoped that Suri wasn't this abrasive to whomever was working with her.

"Now you listen here goody-four hooves I..." Suri says, her scowl getting angrier at Rarity's remark, but is cut off by a hoof on her shoulder.

"I beg your pardon Miss Polomare," Rarity and Sweetie Belle's waiter says, having returned with their breadsticks on her back. "But you're disturbing the other guests. If you don't calm down I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to leave." Suri narrows her eyes at the waitress, but also notices that there are a lot of ponies staring at them now.

"Fine whatever," Suri grunts, walking back to her table and tossing out a few bits. "I'll save the rest of my piece for the competition, assuming you two amateurs can even make it past the first five minutes." She gives one more "hmph" and stomps out.

"Ugh," Rarity groans, clutching her forehead, before turning to the waitress as she lays the basket on their table. "I'm terribly sorry about that."

"Oh it's quite alright ma'am, I saw who started it," the waitress replies, while shaking her head. "And for the record you are by no means the only pony that particular mare has had issues with here. Enjoy your appetizer your entrees should be out in just a little bit longer." The waitress says working a smile back up as she walks away to the other tables. Rarity perks up a bit at that, but her face immediately drops as she turns to notice how Sweetie Belle has shrunk back.

"Oh Sweetie Belle, precious," Rarity coos, scooting closer to her sister and pulling her close. "I'm sorry you had to see that. Suffice to say that mare and I have some...unpleasant history..." She says with a sigh. She had made a point to not discuss that fashion week with Sweetie Belle, not wanting it to sully her little sister's perception of this city as it almost had with Rarity herself. In any case, the fact that she was once again competing with a pony as deceitful and untrustworthy as Suri Polomare again did not excite Rarity, but at least this time she knew better than to fall for any of her tricks.

Sweetie Belle was so happy when the waiter came and basically told the other mare to go away. Though Sweetie Belle doesn't know what to think about being called an amateur. Wasn't she an amateur? Her sister wasn't obviously, but she'd never done anything like this before. Sweetie Belle was really hoping that she didn't mess this up for Rarity, especially since that other mare had been so rude, she wanted to do her best for Rarity to beat her.

"It's alright." Sweetie Belle said, doing her best to get over it, thankfully there was food available now, bread sticks. Sweetie's magic was good enough that she could pull one over to herself and begins to nibble on it, enjoying the buttery flavor of it. It quickly worked to lighten her mood considerably as she ate it. Sweetie Belle was more than happy to push aside her worries when it came to having something nice to eat, even if the end result usually meant that there was a bigger issue to deal with when it came to her diaper later.

Of course that was something for future Sweetie to worry about, present Sweetie was just happy to enjoy some good food with her sister and forget about that nasty mare who had just been here. At the very least it seemed that everypony else knew that Rarity wasn't the one who caused the commotion.

Rarity smiles at Sweetie Belle as she starts to eat, of course levitating a breadstick over to her own plate and starting to enjoy it herself. The filly's happiness as always proving infectious to her older sister as she feels the anger from seeing Suri again starting to bubble off.

(Yes don't even think about Suri, it's such a huge competition we probably won't even run into each other tomorrow,) Rarity thinks to herself as she leans back in her chair and relaxes and tries to regather her thoughts. (After all it's like you said, the competition isn't what's important, making sure that Sweetie Belle enjoys her first trip to Manehattan is. That insufferable thief almost ruined my trip here with the girls and I'm certainly not about to let her sour this one too.). With that she straightens up and picks out another stick.

"So Sweetie Belle, what would you like to do next after we eat?" Rarity asks. "We could do some sightseeing, shopping...whatever you want precious. After all this afternoon is your first reward for agreeing to do the show with me." She coos, reaching over to stroke her sister's mane.

Sweetie Belle quickly let the encounter slip from her mind, just another oddity that sometimes happened around her sister, after all, when your sister was responsible for saving the world you often got these sorts of situations. Sweetie Belle was quite content to just relax when Rarity brought up what to do next. Which gave Sweetie Belle pause to think. What should they do next? What sort of stuff was there to do in Manehatten? Sightseeing was probably a good idea, shopping was, less of a good idea.

"Sightseeing sounds like fun, there's a ton of stuff in this city and I wouldn't even know where to begin!" Sweetie Belle said as she talked with a bit of food in her mouth, swallowing after. Sweetie Belle wasn't used to these sorts of trips, at least not without Apple Bloom and Scootaloo, where Sweetie Belle often let either of them dictate just where and what they were going to do stuff. Here it was just the two of them and Sweetie Belle was happy to spend time with her sister, just as long as they did something fun sometimes, and not just focused on clothes stuff.

Sweetie Belle didn't know much about Manehatten, aside from like, boring school history facts. But she did know a few things. "We could go see the Mare Statue." Which was that big green mare statue, Sweetie Belle didn't know what it was for, but it sure was impressive. "And there's a bunch of plays and stuff here." Sweetie Belle knew there were theater performances and plays and stuff here in Manehatten, they had lots of those.

"Oh the Mare Statue, excellent idea," Rarity nods as she wipes her mouth and takes a drink of water. "It certainly is a classic way to start a visit to Manehattan. Plus, we'll pass by several of my favorite shops on our way back to the hotel." Rarity pauses as Sweetie Belle mentions shows. "Oh yes there are some truly fabulous performances to see here, but I should warn you Sweetie Belle it can be quite difficult to get tickets on short notice. We might have to wait on that one." Rarity shrugs as she holds back a smug smile. After all she was "neglecting" to tell her sister that she'd already gotten the two of them tickets to a performance of Sweetie Belle's all time favorite show: My Fair Filly. For tomorrow night after the first round of the contest.

"For now, let's enjoy our food," Rarity says, as she gestures to the waitress walking up with two warm plates for them. "Oh and miss," Rarity says, levitating her menu up after the waitress sets down their plates. "I think that my sister and I will be having your triple chocolate bon bon platter for our dessert," she turns to Sweetie Belle with a grin. "I trust that will be all right with you, Sweetie Belle?"

"Excellent choice, Miss," The waitress says as she gives Sweetie her plate. "One of our best. It's my personal favorite."

As they're being served, Suri Polomare is stomping down the street outside, but a sinister grin is forming on her face. "Just wait Rarity. When I'm done with you and that little brat of yours you really will never work in this town again..."

Sweetie Belle was less enthused with the idea of shopping, but was already expecting a fair amount of it anyway given she knew her sister fairly well. Though as Rarity described how difficult it was to be able to see some of the plays on such sort notice, she basically wrote off the idea that they'd get to see one while there were here, oh well.

Sweetie Belle turned her attention to the food as Rarity announced its arrival. Before Sweetie Belle can even begin to eat her food, she's caught off guard by Rarity announcing that they'll be having dessert too. "Y-yeah!" Sweetie Belle exclaimed, more than a little surprised, her excitement rising as she heard the name of the dessert that sounded absolutely amazing!

Once the shock of it faded, Sweetie Belle began to eat her meal. She used her hoof to grab her fork, unable to sustain her magic long enough to levitate the tool, perhaps she could focus more on her magic stuff once this was done with, because Sweetie was really starting to feel like she needed to be better at it. Of course she likely would have tried to do it anyway under other circumstances, but she knew if she made a mess and got food on her, Rarity would have to clean her immediately, something about white fur staining easily. Regardless, Sweetie Belle began to eat.

Even though Sweetie was absolutely garbage at cooking things, she was rather adept at eating them, and not in a ravenous way, although she did do that from time to time, no, she'd actually had a lot of Rarity's mannerisms and table etiquette rub off on her and since Sweetie was aware of how nice this place was, and that she wanted to look her best for Rarity, she ate her meal with a grace one would not find in most fillies her age, especially not the ones still wearing diapers. It was quite the contrast to see her eat so neatly, like she was quite mature, while having a very obvious sign of immaturity strapped to her flank.

Rarity smiles at her sister as she eats, please and proud to see her eating, as Rarity would put it, "like a proper lady." Rarity had always made a point of helping Sweetie Belle learn things like etiquette, manners, and various other good behaviors. After all, Rarity always wanted everypony, including Sweetie Belle herself, to realize that just because she needed diapers it didn't mean she was a foal or that she shouldn't be treated any younger than her actual age.

Rarity for her part gets to eating her own lunch, already planning in her head what shops they would go to on their upcoming shopping trips. Rarity knows that Sweetie Belle isn't quite as into shopping sprees as she is, but a few of the stores Rarity had in mind were right up her sister's alley...besides, what was the point of having a cute little sister if Rarity didn't spoil her just a tiny bit.

Just as they're each finishing their ratatouilles, the waitress comes up with another platter. This one bigger and covered in various chocolate bon-bons, each with a different colored frosting.

"Oh even more scrumptious looking than I remembered," Rarity squeals as the waitress removes their empty plates and replaces them with the platter and two small serving plates.

"Enjoy," she says with a smile and walks away.

Sweetie Belle was happily eating, the prior interruption basically forgotten entirely by now! She did her best to not eat as quickly as possible, but she was rather hungry and the food was amazing! It was so good! It was hard to not just put her head down and take a huge mouthful of it to fill her cheeks and savor every moment of it. She managed to keep herself under control though and once she was finished with her meal, the dessert arrived.

"Woah.." Sweetie looked at it as she couldn't help but drool just a little. The rich chocolatey smell coming off of the bon-bons was just divine! Her ears even stood up a little more. The frosting over the top was also great! She couldn't help herself as she used her magic to grab one and launch it into her mouth and just melted at the taste of it. "Mmmmph~" Sweetie Belle let out a noise of satisfaction as the brought her front hooves to the sides of her face, holding it it as she tasted the chocolate in her mouth.

Rarity can't help but giggle at the sight of her sister enjoying the chocolate. For all her love of cleanliness and etiquette, Rarity could appreciate that sometimes it was nice for even a lady to "cut loose". Besides...she loves chocolate too, as such following Sweetie Belle's example, she pops one of the bon-bons in her mouth, chewing dreamily at the sweet chocolate and flavors. Of course she does try to keep her pace down and wipe her mouth periodically. However soon, she's fairly taken in by the sweet chocolate and matches her sister's pace.

Soon enough, the waitress returns and lays a check on their table.

"I'll take that back whenever you're ready, ladies," she says, with a smile.

"Thmk, ahem, Thank you, miss," Rarity says, in the middle of swallowing her latest piece of bon bon. She levitates the check up and begins counting out the bits to pay for their meal, while also setting aside a few more gems for the waitresses tip. "I trust you enjoyed your meal, Sweetie Belle?" Rarity asks her sister. "Also is there anything else you want or need before we go?" Naturally she assumes that Sweetie Belle is full, and figures that her sister will know that the question is directed more at the state of her diaper, which Rarity will likely check before they leave anyway.

Sweetie Belle wasn't paying Rarity all that much attention, she was more concerned that her sister was probably going to admonish her for behaving in such a way, but she sees Rarity enjoying herself as much as she is. Which gives her the courage to keep going and enjoying the dessert without any worry at all. After a few more delicious chocolate bite Sweetie Belle was quite full, definitely managing to fill herself up.

"Mmhm!" Sweetie Belle exclaims with a noise of agreement. Though as Rarity continues she realizes her sister is trying to ask about her diaper. Wiggling her rear a little, her diaper doesn't feel wet. Sweetie Belle had peed a little when that other mare had come over and been arguing with her sister, not even noticing it at the time because she was so distracted, and because her diaper did an excellent job of absorbing the urine that from where Sweetie was sitting her diaper felt completely dry. "I'm good Rarity." Sweetie Belle says, she refrains from outright mentioning that her diaper feels dry with the waitress standing right by them. Sweetie Belle wasn't too self conscious about her diapers around strangers, but that didn't mean she was going to talk about if she was or wasn't dry right as somepony was standing right besides them. She just hopes Rarity isn't going to come over and check her diaper.

"Oh very well then," Rarity nods with a smile back, as the two of them finish the bonbons, Rarity being left just as full as Sweetie Belle. After paying the check the two of them walk away from the table and are soon outside the restaurant. However, once outside, Rarity leads her sister down an essentially vacant side street, stops, and pulls her in close to check her diaper. After all, as demonstrated in the hotel room, Sweetie Belle and Rarity didn't always agree on what constituted her needing a change. Of course she didn't want to make a public spectacle about checking her sister either. In this case, she soon sees that Sweetie Belle was right.

"All clean, as you said," Rarity says, giving her backside a few affectionate pats. "Now let's get to the statue, it's just a few blocks this way. Now stay close, precious." Rarity says, as she walks down the street with her sister beside her.

As they get closer to the monument the street starts to crowd up a little more. As this is pretty far away from the fashion district, most of the ponies around seem to be either locals or tourists, with fewer of the model designer pairs. However, there are still a few fillies around Sweetie Belle's age with diapers on display around too, and even without them no pony seems to pay them any mind.

Sweetie Belle follows her sister outside, happy that Rarity took her word in regards to her diaper, only to then be brought down an empty side way, pulled in close, and have her diaper checked. Sweetie Belle found herself pouting slightly as Rarity said that. In that moment wishing she had a better control over her functions so she could purposely use her diaper just to spite her sister. But the feeling faded when Rarity patted her, knowing that her sister just didn't want her going around in a soiled diaper. She followed Rarity out and continued on their way, staying close to her sister as more and more ponies were around them. "Okay sis." Sweetie replied.

There were definitely less fancy looking ponies around, but nopony paid any mind to her as she trotted along after her sister. Sweetie Belle did wish they could have stayed a little longer at the restaurant, all this trotting on a full stomach was a little uncomfortable. Though Sweetie Belle didn't exactly realize there might be more than one reason for that discomfort.

Rarity for her part is looking around with the usual glee and excitement she has whenever she visits and explores Manehattan. However, she soon notices Sweetie Belle starting to lag behind her and smirks to herself. While lunch wasn't having much impact on the adult mare, she knew full well that Sweetie Belle tended to be a bit more sluggish on a full stomach. Moreover, she figured that her sister was also getting ready, whether she knew it or not, to make use of her diaper.

Regardless, Rarity takes hold of her sister in her magic and lays her atop her back.

"Come now, precious," She coos, leaning back to nuzzle her sister over her shoulder. "If you needed some help you only needed to ask. After all we've only started today's fun, can't have you fading on me so soon." She giggles and continues down the road toward the statue. Someponies who knew Rarity might be shocked that she would put a filly on her back knowing full well said filly was probably not far from a dirty diaper, but all her friends would say that when Sweetie Belle was involved Rarity was far better at overcoming her cleanliness obsessions.

Sweetie Belle flinches slightly when she's gripped with magic, though quickly calms down when she notices its her sisters magic. Then she's laid out on Rarity's back, nuzzling her a quick moment. "Thanks sis!" Sweetie Belle exclaimed. They'd be able to move much more quickly this way, and Sweetie Belle could take the time to let herself relax a little bit. She felt her sister moving underneath her as she laid there, her stomach already feeling a bit better now that she wasn't trotting herself.

Though there was still a subtle discomfort Sweetie Belle couldn't quite place, and as she looked around more, now that she didn't have to focus on following her sister, her mind didn't register that feeling because it just wasn't pressing enough to be noticeable. Much more occupied with looking ahead at the Mare Statue as they got closer and closer to it. "Is is a statue, or a building?" Sweetie asked, since she could see a whole pavilion thing near the base of the statue. Sweetie Belle definitely felt a lot comfier though as she rested there. Something she didn't notice either was that her tail was starting to twitch a bit.

Rarity smiles back at her, and soon is looking up at the statue from the observation deck.

"Hm, well I guess you could say it's a little of both," Rarity replies to Sweetie Belle's question. "It's mostly a statue but there are some hollow portions that ponies can go inside of. We might want to save that for another day though, it is a little late in the day and as I said I don't want to wear you down too quickly." Rarity says, patting Sweetie Belle's head. In all honesty, it was a bit more that Rarity wasn't sure if or how well Sweetie belle would handle the heights of the statue. Even she and some of her friends struggled all the way at the top, and she certainly wasn't about to risk upsetting Sweetie Belle's stomach when it was full of her lunch.

In any case, they were able to get plenty of good looks at the statue from the observation decks, and at one point Rarity was even able to get a local photographer to take some pictures of them with the statue in the background. Normally Rarity would have preferred to take pictures of Sweetie Belle in a full outfit, but she supposed that in her designer diaper was enough.

"Now then, precious," Rarity coos to her sister. "Are you ready to move on? And do you feel up to walking again or would you rather I keep carrying you?" She asks.

Sweetie Belle just slowly nodded as her sister spoke, though she was a little disappointed that they wouldn't be going up in there, but Rarity's point did stand, Sweetie Belle was feeling a bit lethargic, riding on her sisters back hadn't made her feel any less tired, if anything she'd gotten rather cozy where she was. Though Sweetie Belle wasn't a foal, she could walk on her own! But.. She was comfy..

As she stopped to give it some thought, her body saw fit to take control away from her. "Uuhh.." Sweetie Belle said as she was deep in thought, her gaze looked towards Rarity's face, but it was clear she was not looking at Rarity, more like she was looking past, or through her, with an expression that looked like she might be going to sneeze, eyes a little tightened, face a little contorted. Her tail suddenly hitched upwards like a flagpole, pointing upwards, and forming a little curve at the top as her tail hair came back down. Her body tightened, Rarity would feel Sweetie Belle's stance on top of her stiffen.

A sudden gurgle rippled through Sweetie Belle's lower abdomen, one Rarity might have felt given Sweetie Belle's close proximity, then a slight shudder as a feeling of euphoria began to roll up Sweetie Belle's back, her previous look, one that could be generously described as her 'pooping face' fell away as Sweetie Belle began to relax, her face relaxed, all tight and contorted features softening as her eyes lidded, her ears shifting down a little. Her body also relaxed, feeling much less tight. The span of time between Sweetie Belle looking like she was going to relieve herself, and then getting there, was mere seconds, no real time for her to be made aware of her bodies next move.

The back of the fillies diaper quickly moved outwards as she pushed out a load of horseapples into it, Rarity would feel the heat of it roll across her back as it spread and filled. A few muffled bursts of flatulence came with it as the all too familiar odor of a messy diaper began to waft out from her, a pungent aroma that easily cut through the air around them. The warmth of the diaper was only intensified as Sweetie's bladder joined in, giving her diaper a much more thorough soaking, especially as it had been a bit wet before, but not in a noticeable way, it was definitely noticeable now.

Unfortunately for Rarity, given how she treated her sister to many 'extravagant' things, which included food, the heft of the dirty diapers Sweetie Belle produced were often on the heavier side, and this time was no exception. Once the diaper was filled to near capacity, at least on the solid side, Sweetie Belle let out a sigh of relief as it ended, again taking just a few moments to do all that. Simply enjoying the lovely feeling that stayed with her, though it faded after mere seconds, leaving Sweetie Belle with the distinct feeling of a messy diaper on her flank, and quickly putting things together, realizing she'd done her business while on her sisters back. While Sweetie Belle wasn't adverse to using her diapers, in this particular position she was more concerned about subjecting her sister to this, causing the fillies eyes to widen, quickly glistening. "Rarity.. I.. I.." Slight hiccuping to her voice now.

Fortunately, Rarity, having expected that Sweetie Belle would be using her diaper soon enough was a bit "on guard" for this, and as such upon feeling Sweetie Belle's change in stance and new movements, she started to veer away from the crowd and towards an area lined with restrooms. By the time they were out in the open and in front of the restrooms, Rarity felt Sweetie Belle as she started to fill her diaper.

Naturally, there was a part of her that felt compelled to grimace, groan, and even scream at the fact that a pony had just messed themselves on her back, but since that pony was her sister, Rarity holds in all that in without letting out so much as a single wince. She knew full well how sensitive Sweetie could be about her diapers and as a responsible and supportive big sister she wasn't about to make a scene herself, especially in public. Besides, this was yet another one of the reasons Rarity made sure to only get Sweetie Belle top of the line diapers, they were guaranteed to never leak no matter how big a mess she made.

"It's okay, precious," Rarity coos as she hears her sister start to stammer. "Let's go get you nice and clean." She says and continues to trot toward the restrooms, specifically one with a sign of a changing table. As they get closer, the door opens and another mare walks out leading a colt, who looks to be about Sweetie's age or a year or two younger, out with a fresh diaper on his flank. Upon seeing the sisters, she gives them a supportive smile and holds the door open for them. "Thank you madam," Rarity smiles and walks in, using her magic to lock the door behind them after the mare closes it. "See Sweetie Belle, there's nothing to be embarrassed about. There's plenty of fillies and colts like you here." Rarity says as she lifts Sweetie Belle off her back and onto a large padded shelf attached to the wall. The bathroom is big enough for them to move around easily, with a sink and toilet in addition to the changing table Sweetie was now on.

Sweetie Belle was doing her best to get her emotions under wraps, she didn't always have the easiest time with messing her diapers, primarily because of her bully. Not to mention the feeling that she was letting her sister down in a way, because even if Rarity kept a lid on her own reactions, she knew how her sister reacted with other stuff that was gross, so Sweetie Belle did still feel a bit ashamed over having done it on Rarity's back.

Sweetie Belle wasn't so much embarrassed as she was guilty, and it wasn't an easily explainable guilt either. It honestly made her resent her lack of a cutiemark even more, because once she got it she could work on getting out of diapers altogether, though that was another thought that scared her a little, being so used to her diapers, going without them seemed quite strange. Sweetie Belle laid where she was put without fuss, she didn't want to make things more difficult for her sister.

Rarity makes quick work of pulling the changing supplies out of her saddlebags, levitating them to the the space of the table around Sweetie Belle. However, as she's picking out the new diaper and finally turning to face Sweetie Belle, Rarity frowns upon seeing the unhappy expression on her Sweetie Belle's face. Rarity sighs, lays down the diaper and scoops her sister off the table and into a hug. While Sweetie Belle had never been one to complain, Rarity had gotten quite good at reading her sister's feelings, especially since they'd rekindled their relationship at the Sisterhoove's social. She also was pretty familiar with Sweetie's feelings on her status as lacking both a cutie mark and potty training. After all, Rarity had been something of a late bloomer on getting her cutie mark herself.

"Oh Sweetie Belle," Rarity coos, hugging her sister close and nuzzling her gently. "How many times do I have to tell you, your diapers are nothing to be ashamed of, and it doesn't bother me in the slightest. I know I'm not the best pony when it comes to things that are messy, but I would change a million dirty diapers for you if I had too." She smiles and pecks Sweetie Belle's forehead, before hugging her some more.

She hated how sensitive Sweetie Belle was about her condition, of course she was well aware that part of it was her treatment at school. But after all that was one of the reasons she'd convinced her sister to join in this competition. To give Sweetie Belle a chance to be in a position where not only was she surrounded by young fillies like her, but also to display herself without shame or fear of ridicule.

"Now are you ready to cheer up and let me change you?" Rarity coos. "I don't want to have a dour filly on our day of sisterly fun and I'm prepared to resort to drastic measures to cheer you up." She adds with a wink.

Sweetie Belle found herself being pulled into a hug. "I know." Sweetie Belle replied as they embraced, and again, even though she knew that, she couldn't quite stop herself from feeling how she did, not so suddenly anyway. She wriggled a bit as her sister began to squeeze her more, kissing her and such. "Raarity." Sweetie whined slightly as her sister was being a bit too coddling.

"Alright alright." Sweetie Belle said, looking like she was over her slight sadness that she'd had. Not to mention she was certain Rarity would make good on that statement, as much as she loved her sister, and did enjoy the occasional 'extra' treatment, she didn't overtly want to feel like she was being treated like a foal. Just wanting to be herself without having to really worry about just who she was yet, she didn't even have a cutiemark, how the heck was she supposed to know who she was at all?

Of course all the added squeezing and wriggling didn't exactly do any favors for the fillies diaper, which had been mushed and smushed all over while they two of them hugged, Sweetie Belle didn't object to the feeling of her diaper, she'd grown quite used to it after so long so it didn't quite register to her when she had mushed it a bit too much. Sometimes it just ended up feeling like that.

"All right then, let's get my adorable sister smelling better," Rarity coos, levitating all the various changing supplies in her magic while also using it to unfasten the tapes of Sweetie's diaper. Naturally, Rarity can't help but wince a bit at first, both from the smell and the sight of how mushed Sweetie's mess is, even though she does realize that part is mostly her fault. Nevertheless, she soon regains her composure and gets to work wiping her sister clean.

As usual, Rarity's movements are gentle but also through and meticulous, making sure that there isn't so much as a speck of the mess left on Sweetie Belle's flank. Though it is worth noting the only reason Rarity is this good at diaper changing is because she has magic. She'd never really admitted this, especially not to Sweetie Belle, but the thought of changing even a wet diaper without her magic made her sick to her stomach. She always had to look away anytime she saw Applejack or Rainbow Dash changing their own little sisters (well honorary little sister in Rainbow and Scootaloo's case). As much as she wanted to be sensitive and supportive to all three fillies as they deal with their situation, the thought of physically touching a dirty diaper was the last thing she ever wanted to do. But thankfully she was born a unicorn, which made supporting her sister all the easier and more tolerable to her.

Eventually, Rarity has Sweetie Belle clean and quickly floats the used diaper and wipes into the bathroom's trashcan. She then proceeds to unfold a fresh diaper, this one more in line with her aesthetic with a jewel pattern on a light pink background. As always she gives a good dusting of the special foal powder and tapes it up at the perfect snugness.

"There," She coos, giving the padding a few pats. "How's that Sweetie Belle?"

Sweetie Belle just laid there, of course she noticed when Rarity winced as the diaper opened, she always noticed it. Getting her diaper changed is rather routine at this point, but Sweetie usually reflects on how it feels different between the ponies who have changed her diaper before. Rarity often went about it with a very clinical precision, which made sense. The only pony she knew to be better at changing diapers with their magic than Rarity was Twilight. With Twilight it was always bizarre because she could do it without even having to pay all that much attention to the actual diaper change.

After being changed so often by Rarity, Sweetie Belle often experienced quite a bit of embarrassment whenever Applejack or Pinkie Pie changed her, it was hard to get past the face of somepony who has to have it right in there for the purposes of changing diapers! At least Fluttershy incorporates her wings quite a bit, though that often leads to a lot of giggling and the occasional spurt, while Rainbow Dash never uses her wings to help her change somepony. 'These are made for flying, not changing diapers.' Echoed in Sweetie's mind from the multiple times she'd heard Rainbow say it when changing Scootaloo.

Through her musing, the change went very quickly, with Sweetie Belle smelling the sweet powder and feeling the new, fresh, cushy diaper around her flank. "That's great Rarity. Thank you." Feeling her sister pat her diaper. Even if she didn't particularly enjoy using her diapers, or sitting in used ones (when she could properly tell it was used anyway) the feeling of a fresh diaper, the smell of the powder and the diapers own distinct scent, that was wonderful. When she finally got herself potty trained she imagined she'd still keep some of the powder around just to remind her of that nice fresh feeling.

"Wonderful," Rarity says, leaning in for a nuzzle. She then levitates Sweetie Belle onto her back and strolls back out of the restroom. "Now let's keep going. We've got just enough time to hit all my favorite shops around here. Then we'll head back to the hotel, get some room service for dinner and turn in so we'll be perfectly rested for the competition tomorrow." Rarity smiles and trots down the road, soon coming to a block filled with shops.

The first one she walks into is a perfume and scented candle store, the air thick with a wonderful mix of different fragrances. As this area is closer to both their hotel and the fashion district there are once again more pairs of designers and young fillies and colts around, but given the setting most of them are fairly cordial with each other. A few greeting Rarity and complimenting how cute Sweetie Belle is.

Rarity keeps her purchases quick and light in this one, grabbing one bottle of perfume and two scented candles. She then walks over to a shop she thinks that Sweetie Belle will enjoy more, as it's full of homemade stuffed animals.

"So Sweetie Belle do you see anything you'd like here?" Rarity asks, levitating her sister onto her own hooves so she can look around and walk.
