Fire Emblem: Past and Future Bonds (Private)

[thelonegrunt]

Not noticing the woman's slip-up, the two children relaxed to know that there mother was safe... though Owain was less than thrilled to know that an unconscious Severa would be occupying his room for an unknown period of time. Lissa, however, wouldn't have any of it.

Eventually, Owain and Morgan left to watch television in the living room, leaving just Lissa and the unconscious girl alone. With Cordelia's presence no longer being felt, the girl very faintly started to whine and wiggle in the bundle of towels, making Lissa watch with caution. As well, she mumbled some hardly recognizable words:
"Ma...ma... I'm... sorry..."

[Diapee Girl]

The first stop was their home. Hurrying inside, the pegasus knight quickly changed out of her grimy, sweaty training outfit and into some attire of a more casual nature. From there, she wasted no time throwing together two rucksacks of clothes and other essentials for both her child and herself. She packed a few days worth of supplies, not knowing how long they would be staying with Lissa. Even if it turned out to not be enough, she could always take another quick trip here.

Finishing packing, Cordelia slung both bags over her shoulders and locked up the house. Only when she had walked a few feet away when she allows herself to sigh and reflect on the next item on her list of things to do. "Time to go buy Severa some diapers...Gods, that's a sentence I didn't think I'd be saying any time soon." The woman said to herself with a chuckle, heading off towards the market district of town. "But where?..."

Eventually, she managed to reach the markets; street vendors and shops were visible from every angle. Cordelia had no time to browse, however. Severa needed her...and what Lissa said made sense. She didn't know what her bratty daughter had ate or drank earlier in the day before departing for the training fields, but chances were her body would be finishing digesting it soon. Even though she had wrapped her up pretty snugly in the towels, the crimson-haired woman hadn't exactly taken 'accidents' into mind. The swaddling could likely only hold so much before making a huge mess. For now, Severa needed legitimate diapers. Normally, she would have been completely stumped as for where to get these items that she had never once looked for; but a certain line from her conversation with Sumia that very morning kept ringing in her head...

"But hey, if you ever did have that in mind, they do sell adult diapers in the store where I get Lucina's supplies."

The crimson-haired woman knew where this was. She had gone to this particular store with Sumia several times while her friend was pregnant with Lucina, and even went here to get most of the items for her baby shower. The knight hadn't noticed any adult diapers around though...Then again, she had never really strayed far from the front of the store where most of the infant items were...maybe they had a shelf stocked near the back?
Entering the aforementioned shop, Cordelia took a moment to breathe in the relaxing scent of baby powder that always wafted around this store. From there, she examined her surroundings. Sure enough, she was currently at the infant section of the store. Advancing forward, she noticed that the next section was geared towards toddlers, the size of the displayed diapers, furniture, clothing, and other supplies increasing in size to accommodate the larger children. What confused the lady, however, was that this was still close to the front! She figured most baby supply stores would end at age 3-4 at most! Maybe this shop sold generic supplies for taking care somewhat older children?

But as she reached the next section, her eyes widened. "No way..." The Shepherd whispered to herself in shock. Instead of being replaced by more 'age-appropriate' items, the 'baby' items just kept getting bigger! She was looking at cribs, diapers, and baby clothes that were clearly fitted for young children from 4-8 years of age!
Quickening her pace a little, Cordelia was more and more blown away as she passed though every section; the baby items on the shelves increasing in size accordingly. Young children, pre-teen, tween, young teen...

Her feet stopped, turning her head once she reached the section of the shop marked 'Teen: 14-17'. Cordelia's mouth hung open when she saw all the items laid out around her. Diapers, onesies, changing tables, sundresses, cribs...anything you could imagine for a baby was out all around her, sized for children right around Severa's age. The young woman actually had to take a moment to collect herself, her mind blown by this discovery. Looking further down, it was clear that there were a few more sections geared towards adults further down. Suddenly, the sign out in front that read 'For Babies of all Sizes' suddenly took on an entirely new meaning to her.

Gathering her composure, Cordelia reminded herself what she was here for. Walking to the 'diaper area' of the aisle, she looked at her options. She was expecting at least a bland, generic-looking protective garment she could choose from. However, every single kind of diaper on display looked almost exactly like a baby diaper would; thick, puffy, big single-tapes on each side, and adorned with cutesie picture strips and designs. From there, the differences were minor among all the choices; slight color or design changes, look of the diaper itself, things like that. There was no 'adult' diaper here.

Thinking about her options for a minute, the woman just sighed. "She's going to throw a fit no matter which one of these I pick..." She sighed to herself. But this resigned sigh gave way to a playful grin. So, Cordelia then looked over all of them and decided to pick out the cutest, most adorable kind she saw that she thought would look darling on Severa. Sure enough, she picked out one of the most infantile-looking packages she saw; the brand was even called 'Snuggle-Babiez'.

"Heh, boy, she is going to throw a tantrum when she finds out..." The aforementioned girl's mother chuckled to herself as she picked up the pack in Severa's size. Also grabbing a shaker of baby powder and a small tub of baby wipes, she began to walk away from the section and towards the register, she noticed another particular item. The knight walked past it at first, but stopped and thought for a moment. Eventually, her instinct kicked in and she picked it up. Who knows? She may need it later on...

About fifteen minutes later, Cordelia was back outside, feeling the afternoon sun on her as she carried everything towards Lissa's house again. The woman had requested two opaque bags, so no one could see through and notice what exactly was inside; especially not Morgan or Owain.
Finally, after about an hour of being away in total, she knocked on her comrade's front door again, hoping Severa was still alright.

[thelonegrunt]

(Dang, that's a big post. O_O
Not knocking it, obviously. But jeez; that's longer than anything that I've ever done, probably. XD)

During the woman's temporary trip, all seemed peaceful at Lissa's abode. The children were still watching television, Morgan relaxed to know that her mother was safe as well as Owain, though the boy more concerned with the condition of his room with the girl residing in it, for the time being. Lissa, on the other hand, was in the room with the unconscious girl the entire time, stroking her hair with her fingertips. Severa, just like before, calmed down as Lissa provided comfort to her. However, she strangely didn't coo and smile, only managing to stop the whining and be in an adamant, neutral state.

After about twenty minutes, though, something appeared to be wrong. The girl securely swaddled in the towels bit her lower lip, the soft whining returning even with the young woman's embrace. Lissa was perplexed by such a reaction, and it unfortunately took the faint hissing noise and the steady discoloration around the girl's crotch to indicate what was wrong.

In shock, the woman's eyes widened. Not wanting to attract any attention, she spoke frantically underneath her breath:
"Oh gods, what do I do? Um... um..."

Lissa soon took the towels wrapping the girl's torso off gently before wrapping and pressing them around and against her crotch to help suppress the flow. This caused the girl to resume whining, only adding to the now-shushing woman's dismay. When she was finished, the outer layer of towels were a bit damp, uncovering them revealing fully saturated and discolored cloths.

After quickly lifting up the girl and discovering that the sheets had somehow managed to stay clean (much to her surprise), Lissa sneaked Severa to the laundry room and propped her body up against a wall. After removing the girl's towels and leaving her stark-naked (with a blush as crimson as the girl's hair), she grabbed some fresh ones from the dryer and wrapped it around her waist like a diaper, then using another one to conceal her chest. After finishing and starting to wash the damp towels, the woman carried the girl back to Owain's room and set her down, glad that the ordeal was through without either child's attention being grabbed. It was certainly a close call that she had only peed, as much worse results would come if she would have done... something else. Just as suspected originally, Severa genuinely needed diapers.

About a half hour later, a knock on the door was heard. It got the attention of everyone, including Lissa. "Get the door, someone!" She instructed, the call being followed by Owain who stood up and opened it to reveal the woman who was here about an hour ago.

"They're still in my room..." He said a bit regretfully, even in knowing that there was no choice or say-so in the matter. He took notice of the bags the woman was carrying, but made no other mention

[Diapee Girl]

((Haha, thanks. It took forever to type out, but I don't think it's my longest post. I think my first post to this thread had it beat))

Smiling politely when the tall young man opened the door, Cordelia stepped inside. "Thank you again Owain." She replied. "I really do appreciate everything you're doing for us, and I'll make sure Severa does as well. This a real noble thing you're doing for your comrade." The woman assured, knowing full well that he wasn't too happy about the current situation.

Hurrying past Morgan, who gave her a wave as she passed, the crimson-haired woman entered Owain's room to find Severa still in bed and Lissa nearby. "I'm back." She stated, setting all the bags down. "Did anything happen? Any good signs from her?"

[thelonegrunt]

((Both are lengthy. XD))

Admittedly, Owain thought that Cordelia was very attractive, so having her comment on the "noble" act boosted his confidence and even flustered him a bit. He didn't want to seek out any sort of romantic relationship with her, though; for one, she was a few years older than him. As well, it'd be awkward considering that he came back from the same timeframe of her daughter, and Severa would certainly not be pleased upon hearing that. So, sensibly, Owain brushed those feelings aside, though he blushed and gave a faint smile as he allowed Cordelia in. "Well... yeah, anything for a comrade in battle..."

Fortunately for the two conscious women in the room, Morgan and Owain did not bother to follow, allowing them their privacy. Upon seeing Cordelia, she smiled widely, almost relieved. "Oh thank gods!" She exclaimed. "She's fine... though she did have... a little bit of an accident while you were away." Lissa, wanting to keep this private from her children, whispered the last part into the woman's ear.

[Diapee Girl]

Brushing herself off after setting down all the heavy bags, the crimson-haired woman was relieved to hear nothing too horrible had happened. However, when Lissa mentioned Severa's accident, Cordelia blushed pink. "Oh Gods, I'm so sorry!" She whispered back, hurrying over to her unconscious daughter's bedside and examining the area of the bed around her crotch for wet spots. "How big of a mess did she make? I promise I'll clean it up..." She assured, not knowing that Lissa had already taken care of everything. Sure enough, when she lifted up the blankets, Cordelia was greeted to the sight of the makeshift cloth diaper the blonde had fastened around the girl's waist.

[thelonegrunt]

Lissa, not wanting the children to be aware, soon shushed Cordelia. "Hey hey, it's fine! It's already cleaned up; none of it got on the sheets. It's okay..." Lissa assured in a whisper, not wanting the woman to freak out and cause an uproar. "I figured I'd... make a makeshift diaper until you got here... heh..."

[Diapee Girl]

Cordelia breathed a small sigh of relief, quieting herself down when she realized she had been louder than she had hoped to. "Oh, thank you Lissa." She replied, lowering her voice and stepping back from the bed a little. "That was actually pretty resourceful...Speaking of, I, um...picked some up for her on the way back over here..." She whispered back, pointing to the bag that contained the package of diapers.

[thelonegrunt]

Lissa sighed in relief as the news of the diapers were brought to her. "Cool! So, um... can we get them on her quickly? I really don't want anything like what happened earlier to happen again..." The younger woman said followed by a nervous chuckle.

[Diapee Girl]

Understanding her desire for haste, the taller woman nodded. "Right..." She replied, hurrying over to the grocery bags. Grabbing the baby wipes and powder first, Cordelia then pulled out the pack of babyish diapers, giving Lissa a good view of the infantile packaging as she carried them over. "Yes, I'm well aware they aren't exactly 'age appropriate'." She stated to the blonde, knowing she was probably a little surprised at her choice of protection for Severa. "This was pretty much the only real option I had. Either way; they should fit her snugly, won't irritate her skin, and are thick enough to completely prevent any possible leaks." Cordelia explained, leaving out the other factor in her purchase; she thought they looked adorable.
