An Adorable Addition to the Phantom Thieves (Private with PastelWolf)

[SomeoneSuspicious]

Ann looked on as Alex, the newest and youngest member of the Phantom Thieves, walked alongside the group, having to put in slightly more effort to keep up due to his smaller size. She couldn't help but internally coo as she did so, finding the boy to be absolutely adorable ever since he joined them. His looks, his shy demeanor, and his high-pitched voice all contributed to Panther fawning over Alex, and she had an idea on how to make him look even cuter. Finding an opportunity when the two could be slightly separated from the rest of the Thieves while in Mementos, Takamaki pulled the boy to the side and prepared to pitch to him what she had planned.

"Hey, Alex! Would you mind doing something for me real quick?"

[PastelWolf]

Alex or as the phantom thieves called him Squirrel, panted as he tried to keep up, his person was known as Watson, the sidekick to Sherlock Holmes though his looked much more like a young boy. He had joined the phantom thieves after they delved in mementos, through his own information gathering he had determined who they were and followed them in. Along the way he saw them get attacked by shadows and awakened his person to help, since then he had been their faithful sidekick and was happy to do so. Still he struggled to keep up with the group of teens and worked eagerly to prove his use to them, so when Ann pulled him aside he couldn’t contain his joy.

“Sure this Panther! How can I help?” He asked excitedly, trying to stop himself from bouncing from foot to foot

Takamaki took a moment to consider how to phrase what she'd say next, knowing that it'd take a bit of persuasion to get Alex to do what was being asked of him. Eventually, Panther settled on just telling it to the boy straight, albeit while using somewhat flowery language.

"Weeeeelll, everyone in the Phantom Thieves thinks you're kind of cute, and honestly it's a bit of a morale booster having you by our side because of that. So, I was kind of thinking that maybe you'd be okay looking, well, even more adorable than you already are! Because of that, I was wondering if you'd be okay wearing these..."

After saying that, Ann brought her hand out from behind her back to reveal that she was holding a thick, white diaper, one that was more than big enough to fit someone like Alex's size. She had a bit of a sheepish smile on her face as she waited to see his response, hoping that the boy wouldn't put up too much of a fuss.

Alex waited to hear what she had to say, the quizzical look on her face causing him some terrible confusion. He was sure that she knew what she wanted from him, but this made it seem more sudden, what if she wanted to train him herself! That would surely show the others he was a great fit on the team.

When Ann began to speak Alex couldn’t help but blush and smile as his eyes grew wider and wider, he was ecstatic to hear that he was such a great morale boost to the team. “I’m really glad I can help you all out! What is it you…want…me…to…wear…?” Alex said, his face dropping as he stared in confusion at what she pulled out from behind her back.

“I I’m sorry…I’m very confused. What do you mean? Those um…those look like diapers, like the kind babies wear? The t thick kind to hold their-” he paused and blushed more for a minute “-waste?...I I think maybe you grabbed the wrong thing…o or maybe have been in mementos too long?! I should tell the others so they can get us back up top before you get worse!” Alex said assuming the whole thing was a delusion of some kind.

[SomeoneSuspicious]

Ann winced as she heard Alex's questioning and internal monologuing, seeing that he wasn't exactly taking it well. Not wanting things to get out of hand, she quickly spoke up, attempting to convince him that she was being sincere.

"It's nothing like that, really!" Panther clarified, lightly waving her hands in front of her in a calming gesture. "I promise you, I'm being genuine. It's just that you'd look so adorable! I mean, try to picture it: A cute little kid like you with a thick diaper underneath your pants that's so bulky it even sticks out on the sides! Oooh, just imagining you waddling around due to its thickness makes me want to squeal! All of the Thieves will love it, I promise!"

Ann gave Alex a genuine, eager look that suggested everything she was saying was true. There were no hints of deception or hypnotism anywhere in her gaze as she eagerly awaited to see if the boy was swayed or not.

[PastelWolf]

Alex listened to her reasoning and sighed as he did, he tried to see it from her point of view truly he did but nothing she said appealed to him in the slightest. He wanted to be a useful member to the phantom thieves but wearing diapers? That wasn’t how he wanted to

“Ms.Tamaki I know you think it’s cute…but that’s the kind of thing kid’s my age get bullied for all the time, if I put those on I’m gonna be a walking target!” Alex explained trying to reason with the blonde woman. “And I don’t think the others in the group would really think it’s that cute…diapers are kinda yucky aren’t they?” He asked her, trying to get her to see his logic. He just couldn’t bring himself to wear them, no matter how hard she asked him.

Alex thought about it and shivered, waddling would make it so difficult for him to move in battle, he already struggled to keep up with everyone with his little legs, let alone in one of those giant thick monsters.

[SomeoneSuspicious]

Sighing, Panther slumped her shoulders slightly, a bit sympathetic to his position but also disappointed that he seemingly couldn't see the appeal in him wearing diapers. She didn't want to force him into them, that would just be plain mean, and so she needed to find a way to get the boy to at least reluctantly accept wearing them. In order to achieve that, Ann realized that she'd need to make a slight compromise in her plans for this whole arrangement.

"I promise you, Squirrel, nobody in the Phantom Thieves will judge you for wearing diapers, that's not who we are. If anything, it will make some of us like you even more, given how cute you'd look! While diapers can be seen as 'yucky', around the waist of the right person, such as you, they help you look just absolutely adorable! How about this: In order to keep you from being teased, you won't have to wear them outside of the Metaverse. Is that an arrangement that can work for you?"

[PastelWolf]

Alex listened to her offer and juggled with the thought, he really didn’t see the appeal for him or for the rest of the group. It was clear Ann wasn’t going to drop this so he had to come up with a solution, wearing them around the whole group seemed out of the question, but maybe he could convince her on a different compromise, one that she might appreciate more. He waited for her to finish speaking and spoke up coughing gently, as he did to try and sound mature.

“Um Ms.Tamaki, what if…I maybe just wore them for you? I mean I need tutoring and well I wouldn’t mind just wearing them around you, or when we’re split off into duos…would that be ok with you?” He asked. Having them be a private thing between the two of them, would be a lot less embarrassing to the young boy. “I I just mean that…not e everyone in the group may like them s so just 1 on 1 would um…make it better?” He reasoned again awkwardly.

[SomeoneSuspicious]

"Hmm..." Ann brought a hand up to her chin and pondered the boy's offer for a moment, thinking over whether it was a deal she could work with or not. While it did kind of defeat the whole stated purpose of providing a morale booster for the Phantom Thieves by allowing them to see Alex in all his cuteness, it also meant that she still got to see him in diapers, which is what she'd been wanting from the start. Thus, Panther ultimately complied and accepted his modifications, responding to her smaller companion with a smiler on her face.

"You've got yourself a deal, cutie! Now, I can't get you all padded up while you've still got your pants and underwear on. Are you gonna take them off, or should I?"

[PastelWolf]

Alex’s cheeks flushed red once more as Ann called him cute before growing crimson at her request to remove his under garments. “Um Ms. Tamaki, w we’re still with the group though…t the whole deal was that we do it in private” Alex said as he turned to look, expecting to see the rest of the group only a few feet away. Instead she found the entire rest of the phantom thieves missing, none of them nearby. Alex gulped as he looked back to Ann, he now had no reason not to stop her from diapering him up.

“W well! We’re gonna have to catch up t to them very soon! And um I don’t think I’ll be able to get it off before we see them again!” Alex panicked trying to reason with her.
