One beautiful day in Hometown, a certain blue-feathered Lightner received an invitation to come and visit a lonely Darkner prince; one he wanted to get to know a little better since their recent adventure through Cyber World. 


Upon doing some investigating in his free time, Berdly figured out how he could freely travel to this mysterious place he thought only existed in his dreams. So, after school was over, he snuck over to the supply closet (so as not to make Kris, Suzie, and Noelle jealous of his exclusive hang-out sesh with Ralsei) and prepared to enter the mysterious portal inside. 


He checked his phone one more time to read the email he received, thankful that he managed to share his address with Ralsei on his last solo visit to investigate the portal.




*Dear Berdly,


I hope this message is finding you okay! I’ve never sent an E-MAIL (is that how you spell it?) before.


I don’t want to be rude to the other members of our “squad”, but I really want to spend some time with you one-on-one. You seem cool, and I’d love to show you some cool places in the dark world where we can have fun together.


I’ll be waiting in my castle!


See you soon,


Ralsei*




“Okay, so I just enter this door, and it should take me there like last time…” Berdly talked to himself, something he would occasionally do when he was nervous. Slowly, he twisted the knob and pushed the door open. And just like he suspected, he could feel himself getting pulled in by an unidentifiable force. The world around him became much darker, and his outfit began to shimmer before magically transforming into his much cooler, high-tech attire. Landing on the dark world’s ground below, he took a moment to admire his outfit. “I suppose it’s only natural that this suit of mine matches my debonair demeanor.” He flexed his wing muscles and looked down to check his form.


“I’ll say,” a cute, curious voice interrupted the blue bird’s musings and surprised him enough to make him jump in the air for a moment.


“SQUWAK!” Berdly’s avian outburst made him feel a bit cowardly, and that feeling turned into embarrassment when he turned around to see that Ralsei was already there waiting for him.


“Oh, sorry! Did I scare you, Berdly?” Ralsei’s thoughtfulness was so transparent which put Berdly’s mind at ease, though he was still recovering from his sudden fright.


“N-No! I’m just fine! Didn’t you say you were gonna be waiting at your castle?” Berdly asked.


“I did, but…” The truth was that Ralsei couldn’t wait to hang out with his new blue-feathered friend again, but he didn’t want to scare him away or anything. “I was just in the neighborhood, so…yeah.”


“Oh, okay!” Berdly replied, none the wiser, “I suppose it would be good to have you lead the way. Usually, I have a near-photographic memory of the places I go to, but traveling through the portal must’ve shuffled my neurons enough to cause a lapse in my geographical judgement.”


Ralsei could tell he was just trying to sound smart, and since he wanted to flatter his avian pal, he played along with his assessment. “Oh yeah! I think I read something about that kind of thing happening to Lightners who enter the dark world. Anyway…shall we make our way there?”


“Yes, let’s,” Berdly used his full concentration to reply as swiftly and suavely as he could. While he was following behind Ralsei, he noticed that his eyes were consistently drawn to his furry, white tail peeking out from the bottom of his robes. The green garb only went down to his lower thighs, and this got Berdly’s imagination going with wondering what the Darkner had on underneath. Sadly, Ralsei was pretty good at keeping his tail down and avoiding embarrassing wardrobe malfunctions, so Berdly was just going to have to keep guessing.


After a few minutes of traversing the rocky, dark blue terrain, they had arrived at the young prince’s home. “Here we are!” Ralsei welcomed him inside.


“I forget if I mentioned it last time, but this place is really something! We don’t have anything similar in the light world, at least in Hometown…” said Berdly.


“If you think it’s great now, just wait! I’ve actually got a little surprise for you,” Ralsei explained.


“You do?” Berdly was intrigued. Ralsei had in fact been working on this ‘surprise’ for the better part of two weeks now, and he was very excited to show it to the bird he was so interested in.


“Yes! But first, we have to stop by Cyber World to get one last thing that’ll complete it! I know we just got here, but it’s really fun over there! And they’ve got an arcade we can stop at!”


“An arcade?!” Berdly didn’t see any such thing the last time he was in Cyber World, though he admitted to himself that he might have just missed it. Who was he to turn down such a fun-sounding proposition? “Uh, sure! Let’s go!”


“Awesome! Just give me one second to take care of something,” said Ralsei, nervously looking toward his back door. 


“Do you need the bathroom or something?” Berdly pried, too afraid to ask if he could make a quick stop as well.


“Oh no, that won’t be necessary with my d—“ Ralsei suddenly stopped himself from spilling an embarrassing secret. He was always such an honest soul that it didn’t really occur to him that there may have been some things better kept to himself. 


“Your…what?”


“—Nothing! There’s just…no bathroom here…anyway, that’s not important, I was just gonna…” Ralsei started to say.


“Just gonna…?”


“Just gonna……okay, you’re *cool*, right? Are you *cool*?” Ralsei shifted his demeanor and asked Berdly more bluntly (but still adorably, of course).


“Cool? Of course!” he proudly proclaimed. “My mom says I’m the coolest berd she knows!”


“I mean, like…” he sighed, “I’ll just tell you. I’m gonna step outside to…smoke…before we go.”


“Wait, SMOKE? Cigarettes are so bad for you, though! All the cancer, all the—“


“No, no! I’m gonna smoke weed!” Ralsei clarified, a blush painting his cheeks red.


“Weed? Like…the weeds in your garden?” Berdly was confused.


“No, like cannabis!” 


“Can of…piss?” Berdly turned a little red thinking of that. 


“NO, haha!” Ralsei giggled at that one. “Here, you should really try some with me. Trust me, it’ll open your mind.”


“Open…my mind? Like it’ll make me smarter?!” Berdly’s excitement increased as he began to imagine the possibilities.


“Uhh…you could put it that way, yeah!” Ralsei was happy to see that Berdly was being receptive. “Follow me outside and I’ll show you.”


Ralsei led Berdly out the backdoor and into his castle’s beautiful garden. It seemed like quite a nice place to relax and unwind, which is *exactly* what they’d be doing.


“Wow, it’s so…elegant out here!” Berdly complimented Ralsei’s taste.


“Thank you! I asked for some help from the queen to research what a castle’s garden should look like. I’d say she did a pretty good job designing it,” said Ralsei. Without any further ado, he reached into the left pocket of his robe and pulled out something Berdly had never seen before. No, not *that*, it was a joint! And quite a pungent one too! He could smell it from where he was standing.


“Woah! That smells *really* strong. Like a skunk…picking oranges or something!” Berdly had never smelled anything like it before in his life.


“Yeah, I think this strain is really cool. Very citrusy terps. I’m actually starting to grow some in the garden out here.” Ralsei smiled and pulled a lighter out from his right pocket. “Okay, you ready?”


“Yeah, o-of course!” Berdly feigned confidence. “I’m gonna suck on that thing so hard, you have no idea!”


Ralsei blushed bright red. “Uh…maybe don’t do that. You might burn your throat; just watch me,” he advised before flicking the lighter, putting the tip of the joint to his lips and taking a gentle drag. Berdly watched the fat end of Ralsei’s jazz cigarette catch the incoming fire, and the resulting smoke stung his nose in what he had to admit was a very intriguing way. The white-furred goat held in his puff for just a moment before he exhaled and his eyes began to sink. “That’s niiice… Okay, your turn Berdly!”


“Already?! O-Okay,” he carefully took hold of the currently-lit joint Ralsei passed over and maneuvered his feathers carefully around the safe end so he wouldn’t drop it. “So, I just…?” Careful not to overdo it like Ralsei had warned, he brought it to his beak with both of his wings and held his breath before taking a subtle inhale. Ralsei laughed seeing Berdly so carefully handle this brand new technology. He looked like such a goody-two-shoes.


(bonus 1)


Although the blue bird was careful, it was his first time, so the resulting reaction was to be expected…


*COUGH, Cough, cough!!* Berdly’s lungs quickly rejected the smoke, and he immediately passed the joint back to Ralsei. 


“You okay?! That happened to me the first time too, don’t worry,” he smiled and patted his coughing friend on the back.


“N-No! I’m just fi—*COUGH COUGH Cough!!*—just fine!” Berdly tried to stay as strong and cool as he could in front of this cute Darkner he was committed to impressing. “…woah.” Suddenly, he was starting to feel a little different. Just that little puff started to make his eyes feel heavier and his mouth feel drier. Not only that, but his sense also began to feel…heightened. Like, he could *feel* more now, man. “I think it’s working,” Berdly giggled.


“Oh, good!” Ralsei continued to puff and burnt the joint down to half of its former glory. “I’m ‘feeling’ it now too, hehe! You want another puff?”


“Uhhhh, yeah sure!” he carefully held the joint again and took the same position as before, holding it with both of his wingtips and focusing his energy before carefully breathing it in. This time, it went better than before, and though he still coughed on the exhale, he was able to take a much bigger puff than he expected.


“Wow, good job! Here, I’ll finish it for ya,” Ralsei gently took it back and puffed the last of it before bending over to put it out on the ground. “There. That was good, right?”


“Heheheh, I feel so…funny,” Berdly giggled and giggled, unable to contain himself.


“Me too. It’s a good feeling, right?” Ralsei’s eyes smiled red and glossy.


“Yeah, it’s awesome! I wonder what video games are like with this!” Berdly’s eyes twinkled.


“That’s where we’re going, remember?”


Berdly was a bit confused, but this only made him giggle more. “uhhh OH YEAH, hahahahahaha, I remember.”


“Sweet, we’ll go right after I powder my diapie,” Raise clamped up immediately after he so carelessly revealed his intimate secret.


“Powder…what?! Do you wear…” Berdly, feeling a little goofier, reached his wing over and poked the fabric on Ralsei’s lower half, just by his right butt cheek. When he felt the telltale crinkle, he started to laugh uncontrollably. 


“AAHahahahahaha! You do!” Berdly laughed on, and Ralsei suddenly felt a bit insecure.


“Hey, what are you laughing for?!” he blushed. “They’re c-convenient!”


“HAHAhahahahaha,” Berdly couldn’t stop, nearly falling over. Though without hearing the same kind of laughter from Ralsei, he was beginning to feel a little bad about it. “Sorry, sorry, I just…I really didn’t expect that. Do you like…do you *go* in them?”


“…yes,” Ralsei felt obligated to always be truthful, “I…yeah, I pee in them.”


“But…why? You’re potty trained, right?”


“YES! Of course I’m potty trained! It’s just…they’re comfy, I can’t explain it!”


“They’re comfy?” Berdly was starting to sound more intrigued than amused. 


“Well yeah! They’re really well-cushioned, and when you’ve gotta go, you can just…let it all go, y’know?” Ralsei actually started to giggle at his explanation. The weed was certainly helping him feel more lighthearted about things as their conversation progressed. 


“Hahahaha, I guess you’re right! But I doubt there would be one that’d fit a berd like me,” he hinted at maybe possibly by chance attempting to try testing it out.


“You…you wanna try it?” Ralsei’s surprise was evident in his voice. That, and he started to get a bit excited about where this might be heading.


“Uh…y’know, yeah! I’ll give it a try!” He decided to be bold (and also to try to mend any hurt feelings he may have caused Ralsei). “You *can’t* tell anyone else in the gang, though. They’ll never let me hear the end of it.”


“I won’t tell if you don’t,” Ralsei solemnly looked Berdly in the eyes. The two could only stare for two seconds before bursting out into laughter again.


“Hahahaha, okay, deal! So…do you happen to have any extras?”


“Oh yeah, I’ve got a whole box in the changing room!” Ralsei said, though he blushed at that reveal as well.


“A whole changing room? Haha, you’re really fond of the whole diaper thing, aren’t you?”


“Hey! You’re the one who wants to try! Do you need me to put it on for you?” Ralsei teased him.


“No, no! I’ll be okay! I think…” Berdly started to wonder just how he would put one on, but it was hard to keep his thoughts straight with THC in his system for the first time.


“If you say so…” said Ralsei. “Follow me.” He led Berdly back inside and was the first to walk up the stairs. From this angle, he would’ve been worried about Berdly looking up his robe and seeing what he had been keeping a secret, but since he just found out about it, he could relax a little.


They went a few doors down the hall before arriving at their destination. “Okay,” Ralsei said as he swung the door open. “It’s all yours.”


A waft of baby powder breached the hallway and confirmed that this was indeed Ralsei’s designated diaper changing room. Berdly smiled sheepishly to Ralsei and reached to turn on the light, which revealed quite a lot more to the curious bird. The room was painted a deep, regal purple and seemed to have anything one might need to properly complete a real big-boy diaper change. On the shelf sat various items like rash cream, the aforementioned baby powder, and cleaning wipes, while on the floor laid two fresh boxes of extra-husky-baby-sized diapers. 


“Are you sure you don’t want me to put it on for your real quick?” Ralsei offered, though Berdly just couldn’t stand the thought of lying exposed on the changing table where his friend could eye up the entirety of his lower half.


“What?! Oh, n-no!” he was obviously very nervous about the whole thing. “I’ll just try it myself, thanks.”


“Whatever you say!” Ralsei said.


Berdly stepped in a little further to get his bearings, and Ralsei closed the door behind him to give him some privacy. There he was, all alone in the changing room, *very* high. He didn’t know *what* he was going to do here. How was he supposed to start? “I guess I just…start with my pants.” Berdly stretched out the elastic of his feather-tight black pants and dropped them to his ankles before stepping out of them. Now in just his tighty whities, he carefully pulled those down and stepped out of them as well. He hadn’t really ever gotten naked in the dark world before, so seeing his Berdly bits out in the open with his slightly lighter feathers was an interesting sight. Berdly felt a warm sense of modesty knowing that Ralsei wouldn’t be staring between his legs anytime soon; it was just him in there. All he needed to do was get a diaper on. How hard could that be?


…


(fifteen minutes later)


“UGH! It’s not WORKING!!!” Ralsei was troubled from hearing Berdly’s frustrated remarks through the door. He was in there for so long that the prince was starting to feel a bit rude for not trying to intervene earlier.


“Berdly, I can help you! I won’t stare or anything, we’re both guys, remember?” Ralsei charitably offered his nappy knowledge for the situation. 


Realizing that he might really just be too high to figure out how to prep his lower half and strap a diaper on, Berdly conceded and gave a meek “okay, fine.” Ralsei had his go-ahead; he was about to probably see much more of Berdly than he was used to. His paw shook a little grabbing the knob and twisting until it clicked. He lightly swung the door open and felt his face heat up at the sight before him.


Berdly wasn’t totally naked or anything—not yet, at least. He was still wearing his upper armor and made sure to keep his wings firmly over his most private areas. Ralsei saw him spread out on the changing table with his knees up and his wings over his crotch. “Sorry,” he chirped weakly.


“It’s okay,” Ralsei smiled at him, “It’s not easy to do this by yourself, especially after smoking weed that good.”


“I’m sorry, it just makes me feel like a baby to ask for help like this,” Berdly painfully admitted.


“Oh? Why’s that?” Ralsei asked he pulled a fresh diaper from the box and got to work fluffing and pre-powdering it.


“…”


“That was a joke, relax,” Ralsei giggled. He checked on the table and found a creased and crinkled diaper bunched up underneath Berdly’s butt. “We’re gonna start fresh, okay? Now…lift up your butt.”


“O-Okay,” Berdly felt very small having Ralsei direct him around like this. He was unfamiliar with the feeling, and he didn’t exactly hate it, though it did feel pretty embarrassing. Ralsei slid Berdly’s first attempt off onto the floor and carefully positioned his newly-prepared, fresh diaper for Berdly’s big, birdly butt. 


“Okay, I’m gonna grab your tail feathers next. Is that okay?” Ralsei asked, readying his paws.


“Sure, just be gentle—!” Berdly flinched a little when Ralsei gripped onto the base of his bunch of tail feathers. He could feel the goat boy guiding them through a small opening in the diaper, and the soft, powder-covered material made contact with his round, blue, and very naked cheeks.


“There, and now we do the front,” Ralsei let his patient know. Berdly wanted to say ‘I can take this part from here,’ but he couldn’t make the words come out partly from being so high and partly from the utter lack of confidence his current situation granted him. “You, uh,” Ralsei was obviously having some difficulty saying what he was about to say. “You probably have to uncover for this part…”


“Uncover? Where—OH! …oh…I see,” it clicked for Berdly that his wing-covered crotch was now the center of the room’s attention. It looked like exactly what he didn’t want to happen was yet again going to happen to him. “Can’t I just tape it from here, though?”


“You can, but we still need to powder your…uhhh…your…” Ralsei wasn’t very used to saying ‘dirty’ words.


“B-But you already put powder on, right? On the diaper?” Berdly bargained.


“Yes, but you always need just a little bit more than you think you do,” Ralsei spoke from experience. “So…open up!”


Berdly sighed and braced himself for the oncoming embarrassment. The cold air felt so invasive between his legs and over his now actively shriveling penis and balls. Sure, Ralsei gave his word that he wouldn’t stare down there, though Berdly couldn’t help but wonder whether his curiosity was going to get the better of him. The blue bird had been mainly avoiding eye contact with the fluffy prince, but when he glanced up to meet eyes with his motherly assistant, he saw that his gaze did not meet his own but rather pointed down right where he had feared the most.


“Hey, don’t LOOK!!!” He squealed, though his sudden overreaction only made Ralsei freeze in shock and embarrassment. 


“S-Sorry, I…You’ve gotta keep ‘em open,” Ralsei noticed that his legs and wings were flapping all over the place (along with some other parts, of course) in an effort to keep himself concealed.


“Is there really no other way?” Berdly pleaded.


“Well, it was originally gonna be just you in here, but you were too high to put your diaper on, so—“


“OKAY, okay, no need to be so…erm, *explicit* about it,” Berdly was massively embarrassed having this pointed out for him, not yet considering that the weed may have been the reason for the feeling’s intensity. “Just…what were we doing again?”


“Yeah, you’re zonked,” Ralsei placed a paw on Berdly’s thigh to gently spread it out so he could aim the baby powder and shield his friend’s most sensitive areas from rashes and irritation. He could feel himself heating up from what he was seeing: Berdly spreading his legs on the changing table and offering him the most personal view of his parts he had probably ever given someone in his life (if only he knew). Ralsei was about to stop and ask Berdly to lift up his little appendage so that he could get in all the hard-to-reach places, though after staring at his soft little penis and balls and thinking for a moment, he realized something. Berdly’s little worm and eggs were so adorably tight and feathery-soft between his legs that they actually didn’t have any hidden folds or spaces to worry about. He couldn’t lift his penis up to get under it because there *wasn’t* any *under* to get! Just a harmless, little nub, twitching softly with nervousness under a thick layer of white powder. His balls, too! Because Berdly was laid back on the changing table, Ralsei could fully see under his round, little purse. He could’ve sworn that he was also getting a small glimpse of the berd’s egg-hole, but it was hard to make out.


“You done?!” Berdly urged Ralsei along. He certainly wasn’t getting any less nervous watching his friend’s eyes dart around the exposed lower half of his feathery body.


“Just about!” Ralsei bumped out just a little more powder over his friend’s privates. It was an awfully intimate act, but he wanted Berdly to know that he’d be safe doing *anything* around him. This didn’t make things any less embarrassing for the bird currently showing *everything* off to his cool new dark world prince friend, however. “Okay! And now we close it,” Ralsei at last said the words Berdly had been waiting for. 


“Finally!” He watched Ralsei’s paws masterfully handle the diaper’s latches before sealing it at the perfect tightness around his waist. The embarrassing part was over, though Berdly didn’t know what to say to Ralsei in order to help dissipate the tension. “Uh…thank you, for…your help there. Sorry I was a little snappy. I just…didn’t want you to see my…”


“Don’t worry about it, dude,” Ralsei said in his stoney tone with a smile. “Like I said, we’re both guys. I have a penis and balls too.” Berdly blushed again. “Now c’mon, put your pants on and let’s get going.”


Just like that, they were off to have more fun. And it was going to be quite easy to have fun thanks to how high the boys were. All of Berdly’s sensations were heightened, and trying to think about one thing seriously for more than a few seconds only seemed to make him giggle. It wasn’t long, however, before one of the caveats of smoking weed was to rear its ugly head.


“I’m…thirsty. Like, really thirsty,” Berdly let Ralsei know.


“Oh yeah, that’s gonna happen,” Ralsei confirmed that it was normal. “I know a good lemonade stand around here if you want something to drink!”


“Oo, lemonade! Yes, let’s go.” The stand was right on the way, and nobody was waiting in line, so the boys got their sweet and sour drinks without too much trouble. Berdly did stand staring at the menu blankly for thirty seconds before realizing what was happening, though. 


Walking along with their beverages, the two friends were so entranced by their high that they didn’t notice just how much they’d been drinking. Their extra large lemonades had dwindled down to less than half of what they were when they started, and they hadn’t even arrived at the arcade!


“Is it close?” Berdly asked. “It looks like this is Cyber World.”


“Yes, we’re in Cyber World! The arcade’s just around the corner here,” Ralsei led Berdly through an alleyway shortcut before they emerged from the other end right in front of their destination.


“Wow! We’re here!” Berdly cheered.


“Yep! Follow me inside, I know where the good machines are,” Ralsei led the way. Bright lights, beeps, and boops filled their senses upon entry. Monsters of all shapes and sizes seemed to be enjoying the various machines throughout the building. Berdly followed Ralsei through the crowds and to an escalator at the back.


“There’s another floor?” Berdly asked in shock.


“There’s four!” It was almost overwhelming how grand the arcade was. Games of all genres and niches filled the facility, and Berdly had only seen just a little bit! 


Up the escalator, even more machines and fun awaited them. It seemed easy to get lost in a place like this, so Berdly was thankful that he had Ralsei there to guide him through.


“It’s right over here, I think,” Ralsei informed Berdly as he led him around a corner and over to a row of machines all housing the game ‘Koala Klimb’. 


“‘Koala Klimb’? How have I never heard of this game?!” Berdly asked.


“As far as I know, it’s only in the arcades down here. Kind of a dark world exclusive, I guess,” Ralsei laughed. “You wanna play? I think I have a high score on one of these machines…”


“Yes, let’s play!” Berdly replied with enthusiasm. He stepped up right behind Ralsei, who pulled a quarter from his pocket and inserted it into the machine. It beeped to life and Ralsei’s paws were magnetized to the buttons. Flicking over in the menu, he checked the leaderboards:


1 PEE
2 ASS
3 MOM
4 QUN
5 LNC


“What the…I’m in second? Who’s PEE?!”


“Hahahahahahaha!” Berdly couldn’t stop giggling. “Your name is ASS? And the guy who beat you is named p-p-PEE?!” He could hardly get the words out, he was laughing so hard.


“No way! C’mon, we’ve gotta beat ‘em now,” Ralsei urged his avian friend. Berdly was a little focused on catching his breath. After he managed to calm back down, he shuffled up right behind Ralsei at the machine to get a good view over his shoulder. The machines weren’t very big, but this way, he’d be able to see the screen. It might’ve felt a little awkward to be almost pressed against Ralsei’s butt like this, but the diaper he had on under his pants at least offered a fluffy layer of protection to ease his anxieties. “Watch me for these first couple rounds, then you can hop in. Just so you know how to play before you start,” Ralsei smiled back to him.


“O-Okay!” Berdly smiled and tried not to be too awkward about his positioning. From what he was starting to see, the game looked like it was kind of cute! An adorable little koala character in bright red shorts climbed further up a dangerous-looking, enemy-laden tree with each swift flick of Ralsei’s paws on the buttons. He was obviously very skilled at the game, but Berdly was a storied ‘gamer’ himself and maintained high standards when it came to the first-time-adaptability stat on his pro-gaming skill tree. 


“Pretty cool game, right?” Ralsei tried to chat as he gamed, though he was losing a little bit of his focus.


“Yeah, I like the mechanics,” Berdly was focused on learning all he could before it was his turn to step up at bat. At that moment, Ralsei made a mistake and ran into one of the enemies. “Where’s the health bar—OH!” He was a little taken aback when instead of a traditional health bar, he saw that the koala had lost his bright red shorts and was now down to his tighty whities. “He lost his shorts!”


“Uh-huh! Some of the monsters think it’s kinda goofy, but I like the design,” Ralsei laughed and shared his thoughts.


“Me too!” Berdly quickly agreed, “It’s very, uh…’different’! Does that mean you have only one hit left?”


“Yeah, ‘cause if I get hit again…” Ralsei began, getting Berdly’s imagination going.


“Ohhh yeah, I see, hehehe!” Berdly let loose a little naughty laughter.


“But don’t worry, you have two continues per coin, so basically we have to get as far as we can on three lives,” the goat boy explained. “And the high score takes, like, an *hour* to get to.”


“An *hour*?! Oh god,” Berdly found the task a little daunting, but there was no way he was gonna give up in front of someone like Ralsei.


“Yeah, and you’re up next after I—“


*BEEPBEEP!*


“Awwwww shoot,” Ralsei gave a sigh of defeat. “Okay, you go in front now.” He tried to switch places with Berdly, but Berdly was stopped dead in his tracks by the sight of the now totally naked character on the screen. The pixel-y nature of the art made it difficult to make out the finer details, of course, but from what he could see, the koala was naked, and he could see his little cartoon privates!


“Woah! Th-They show him totally naked like that?” Berdly asked.


“Huh? Yeah! What, your games don’t really do that in the light world?” Ralsei seemed a bit confused.


“No! It’s…It’s naughty!” Berdly reminded the goat.


“Hmmm, I guess the culture is just a little different down here! Sure, it’s a little embarrassing when you can see his parts like that, but I wouldn’t go so far as to call it *naughty*,” Ralsei said, looking closely at the image on the screen. “Maybe a little…”


“Sorry, I’m just not used to them showing it,” Berdly didn’t want to seem like he was against it. On the contrary, he really liked how it looked! He didn’t want to admit such a lame thing to his cool friend Ralsei, but after seeing that he was a fan of it too, he got a bit more comfortable.


“You ready to play now?” Ralsei asked, playfully nudging Berdly towards the controls. 


“Yes, let’s see what I can manage here,” Berdly got his wingtips ready for action and hit ‘continue’. What followed was some of the best natural gaming Ralsei had seen in his young life. For a solid forty-five minutes, Berdly was absolutely tearing the game to shreds. Damage? The avian expert had never heard of such a ridiculous concept. Input mistakes? Only for noobs with grandpa hands. Ralsei gave his praises as Berdly played; he had never seen anyone so quickly get the hang of Koala Klimb. And of course, he enjoyed that he could nustle up behind Berdly and smell his feathers as he looked over his shoulder. In those forty-five minutes, Berdly managed to bring the score closer and closer to the top, and all without a single—


*BEEPBEEP!*


The koala’s shorts started flashing and quickly disappeared, leaving the fluffy little thing with red cheeks and white undies. And he still had to climb, the poor guy! 


“CRAP!” Berdly blurted, absolutely ashamed that he made a mistake.


“Shake it off, you gotta keep going!” Ralsei cheered him on, though it seemed that the pressure was really starting to get to him. And while that was certainly true for the game, there was another kind of pressure that had really been bothering him since he stepped up to the joystick: a very…bladder-y kind. The lemonade had so quickly filled things up down there that it made Berdly feel like a little hatchling, which was fitting given the little secret he had on under his pants. The game had taken his mind off of things for a bit, but after making that mistake, all Berdly could think about was how he needed to *go*, and *soon*. It was only a matter of time before…


*BEEPBEEP!*


“Craaaaap!!!” He wasn’t very happy about that one. “It’s only because I hafta pee—“ Although he tried to stop himself before admitting it, the word slipped out.


“Berdly.” Ralsei snickered in disbelief.


“What…what is it.” asked Berdly flatly and impatiently.


“We’re wearing diapers.”


“SHHHH! Someone’s gonna hear you!” Berdly whisper-screamed at Ralsei, which definitely brought more attention to them than the goat’s previous remark did. 


“It’s okay! You know what it means, though? It means you can just…go…if you want,” Ralsei smiled and nudged his side.


“Wha—here?! No, no, no way, that’s wayyyy too embarrassing,” decided Berdly. “Besides, I was just gonna pause and go to the bathroom anyway.”


“You can’t go! The game automatically quits in ten seconds; you have to press continue now if you wanna use your last life!”


“Wh-WHAT?! What kind of stupid design is that?!” Berdly hopped back on the controls in a flash, though changing from an optimal pee-holding position to an optimal gaming position was tough on his strained bladder. “But I can’t keep going! At this rate, it’s gonna just leak out…” Berdly got quieter and quieter, too embarrassed to say that last part audibly.


“You have to keep going! With how good you are, we’re bound to get the high score.” Ralsei’s compliments strengthened Berdly’s resolve, and the score kept climbing higher. After five minutes, however, we was still a few thousand points away.


“Oh no oh no ohnonono, I can’t hold it!” Berdly wiggled his squished-together thighs and hopped back and forth on his talons, but there wasn’t much he could do to postpone what was soon bound to happen.


“Let go, Berdly! I get the really absorbent brand, y’know,” Ralsei assured him. 


“I can’t. I think I’ll actually die from embarrassment.” Berdly’s assessment of his feelings wasn’t too far off from reality. His face was obviously burning bright red, and although not many monsters could see them from where they were, Berdly felt like all their eyes were on him (and his squirming legs!). 


“I’ll go with you,” Ralsei suddenly offered in a whisper. Berdly nearly fell off of the vine he was climbing in-game.


“You…you will? Right here?” Berdly’s heart started to race. Was this actually going to happen?


“Yeah. Right here. But you have to keep playing your best. We’re doing this for the high score, okay?”


“Okay. That helps me feel better about it,” said Berdly. Carefully dividing his attention, he spread his legs a little and allowed himself ample space in his diaper for things to flow. This was certainly going to be an interesting first experience.


“Ready? Take a deep breath and……hahhhhh…let it out.” When Berdly heard Ralsei’s speech turn into a soft piddling sound from down below, his blush intensified. He could actually feel it! After all, Ralsei’s front had been pressed against Berdly’s butt the whole time while he was watching him game, so when he let loose, Berdly felt the vibrations from the stream currently leaving Ralsei’s…*woah*. He was nervous to do as his friend did, but Ralsei’s sighs were so adorable that it calmed Berdly down and allowed him to relax his bladder muscles. 


*Pssssssssss…*


“Ohhhh wowww. This is…this feels kinda weird,” Berdly was honest about the warm, wet sensation currently adding significant weight to his pants. He kept clicking away at the buttons in game and maintained his focus as he emptied his bladder. 


“But kinda nice, right?” Ralsei smiled. Berdly considered that right now, both he and Ralsei were peeing. Standing up. Next to each other. Although neither could see what was happening inside the other’s diaper, it was an awfully intimate act to be doing so close to each other. 


After thirty seconds, their streams had dwindled to little trickles, fully evacuating the rest of the lemonade they so hastily sipped down. What began as a hot and naughty sensation became something that was more warm, heavy…and a little sticky. 


“Oh my gosh,” Berdly blushed, still gaming away. “My feathers are totally soaked.”


“Yeah, my fur gets pretty wet too. The diaper does a good job at absorbing a lot of it, though,” said Ralsei. “Woah, you’re getting close! You’re *really* close, just 500 more points!!!”


The hype was real, and victory was within reach. Berdly wasn’t about to let his pee-sacrifice be for nothing, so with a warm-ish and freshly wet diaper, he repositioned his legs into his optimal gaming stance and saw things through to the end. The enemies and platforming only got more difficult as the game progressed, but he was handling everything with such expert precision, you’d never expect him to be nursing a fully soaked diaper between his thighs.


“100 more! Up that vine!” Ralsei gave the best moral support he could muster, his paws resting confidently on Berdly’s tense shoulders. And seconds later, Berdly finally surpassed his goal.


*BEEPBEEPBEEP!*


“YES! I’M THE GAMING MASTER!!!” Berdly felt he was born to say.


“Yaaaay!” Ralsei hugged Berdly tightly from behind. “Great job, Berdly. See how far you can keep going! I’m guessing you’re all empty, right?”


“All emp—? Oh! Oh. Yeah, I’m all finished I think,” Berdly said very bashfully. He kept clicking away at the koala game, but found himself not as motivated to execute everything so perfectly. After not too long, the heroic koala climber was reduced to wearing only his underwear again, and then nothing at all. The final animation of the koala smiling sheepishly and covering up his naughty bits played before the game spit them out on the leaderboard screen.


“Should I put your name here?” Berdly asked. Ralsei was the one who started the game, and he didn’t really know the arcade etiquette for this kind of situation.


“No, no, you’re the one who won for us. Go ahead and put your name,” Ralsei let Berdly enjoy his victory.


“Cool! Hmmm…let’s see….B….R…..D…there!” Berdly carefully inputted the letters and confirmed, though he wasn’t as thorough as he thought.


“NRD? You don’t have to put yourself down like that, Berdly. I think any nerdy qualities you have only make you more likable!” Ralsei told Berdly, who could now see his glaring mistake.


“NRD?! Shoot, I messed up!” he seemed a little bummed out (and definitely a bit embarrassed, too). 


“Did you mean to do BRD?”


“Yeah, I think so…but…what were we talking about again?” The weed was still working.


“I dunno. You just won, and then…names…and stuff!” Ralsei filled him in.


“Oh yeah! Let’s go play another game!” Berdly suggested. However, when he turned around and stepped away from the machine, he felt just how soaked things were in his diaper. “Woah…”


“What is it?” Ralsei asked.


“It’s…it’s so full,” Berdly admitted his issue quietly. “What should I do?”


“Oh! That’s okay. Usually I just ignore it until I get home. Let’s play one more game, then head back to change, okay?” he suggested.


“Okay. But, what should we play?” Berdly wondered. 


“Well, we’ve got all kinds of cool games down here. There are probably more dark world exclusives than I thought,” said Ralsei. “We have this game where you, uh, dance on these arrows that show up with the music on screen—sorry, it’s kinda hard to explain…”


“You have *DDR*?!” Berdly was shocked.


“You’ve heard of it?”


“Heard of it? I’m a ranked champion!” he felt a little proud to say.


“You *are*?! That’s amazing! Could you show me?” Ralsei asked. The praise and interest felt *amazing* to Berdly, so he knew he needed to do his best to impress Ralsei further. 


“Uh, yeah! If they have the same tracklist down here, that is. Though if not, I think I can make it work,” said Berdly. 


“Awesome! It’s right over here, follow me,” Ralsei led Berdly away from Koala Klimb and over to a machine that looked much more familiar. Not only did Berdly recognize that this was, in fact, DDR, but he also saw that the game was quite popular with the other monsters in the arcade. There was a small crowd gathered around to watch whoever dared to test their skills on the hybrid gaming/dancing sensation. The blue bird found himself growing more nervous as more eyes turned to Ralsei and him approaching the machine. “Hey, is the machine free?”


“Yeah, we just finished our last song,” a pair of mouse monsters hopped off the game and gave its next player some space.


Ralsei turned to Berdly with an expectant look. “I’m kinda *really bad* at this game, so why don’t you just show me how a pro does it?”


“What? Y-You sure?” Berdly didn’t love where this was going, especially with the feeling of the soggy, wet diaper under his crotch, but he had to do his best. Ralsei was going to remember this!


“Yeah! I’ll pay, too!” Ralsei stepped up and inserted a quarter into the machine. The display flashed with bright colors and advanced to the song-select screen.


“Oh—okay!” It looked this this was going to be happening no matter what Berdly was worried about. Luckily for him, it seemed that the tracklist was the same as he was used to back in the light world, but the dozen or so pairs of eyes watching his every move were starting to make him a little paranoid (or maybe it was the weed, who could be sure?). He knew all the songs like the back of his wing, but he couldn’t shake the big worry currently holding him back: how was this going to work with his…*diaper*?


Usually, Berdly would need to have on some pretty comfortable underwear for a real DDR sesh. Maybe he could choose a lower difficulty to restrict his movements, but that would make him look like a complete noob in front of Ralsei *and* everyone else there who was watching. He figured he’d just choose expert like he always did and try to keep things locked together with his thighs. At least his dark-world pants were stretchy and yoga-like enough for the quick movements he’d need to perform. 


“I don’t wanna rush you, but just let us know when you’re ready,” Ralsei smiled at Berdly, as did some of the other monsters hanging around.


“Okay, I believe I’m all set here, actually,” Berdly said nervously. His talon shook a bit on the ‘start’ button, but after he stepped on it and the familiar sounds of the game played, Berdly’s nerves were calmed and he was set into DDR mode.


If Ralsei wasn’t impressed by Berdly’s wing skills earlier on Koala Climb, his talon dexterity on the DDR machine was certainly something to be respected. Although the arrow commands spit out at a rate faster than Ralsei could realistically follow, Berdly currently had a perfect combo going and he didn’t look like he’d be dropping it anytime soon.


“Woah, how’s he doing that?” one of the other monsters there commented.


“I’ve never seen anyone dance so fast!” chimed in another.


“And he hasn’t missed yet!”


It was true; Berdly was absolutely tearing it up out there. Each swift step of his talons, however, started to coax his heavy diaper a little bit further down his body. At first, it was only sagging his pants a little, but as the song progressed they only rode lower and lower.


“Hey, his pants are…” Berdly was too focused on the game to hear any quiet remarks from the audience, but Ralsei could pick up some chatter here and there.


“Yeah, they are!” another monster whispered.


“Does it look like to you he’s wearing a…”


“…maybe, yeah!”


It seemed the other monsters were catching onto Berdly’s currently worsening problem. Before long, everyone there *but* Berdly could plainly see that something embarrassing was likely about to happen. If this blue bird ever wanted show his face in this arcade again without it turning a bright, bright shade of red, he’d need this song to be over, pronto.


“Go Berdly!” Ralsei cheered on to try to direct the crowd’s attention to his score. “Make sure to check your feet!” He figured that maybe if Berdly heard him and looked down, he’d notice what his pants were doing.


*It’s kind of you to cheer, Ralsei, but I always perform best when my eyes are locked on the screen and I can focus,* Berdly thought to himself. Oh well, Ralsei tried.


The first ‘more private’ part of the dancing bird to become visible was his cute, well-defined buttcrack. He had his tail stuck up for balance, so anyone situated behind him had a very close view of the tippy-top of his naked butt cheeks. The monsters standing to either side of the machine were getting a look at the hip-slips happening on Berdly’s lower garment. As his pants appeared to be nearing the widest point of Berdly’s hips, the monsters who were paying attention to this (which was pretty much all of them who were there) braced themselves for second-hand embarrassment. None of them knew Berdly well enough to warn him or interrupt him for a friendly, face-saving tip. They all just watched in nervous anticipation before…the inevitable happened.


*Shshshfwp.*


Steadily, the weight of Berdly’s fully-soaked diaper pulled his stretchy pants down his feathery thighs. There was probably a monster or two there who wanted to say something to warn Berdly, but everything was happening so fast; before they knew it, they could see *everything*. 


“Gasp!” A few of the monsters audibly reacted to what happened, though Berdly was so focused on the game that he had no idea of his embarrassing state of dress. He just kept dancing, and no one could keep their eyes off of the most interesting part of the show.


Everyone’s eyes shifted up from Berdly’s fast moving talons to his very, very jiggly penis and balls. Not only were these intimate parts exposed to monsters he’d never seen before, but they were also damp with pee, which would only add to Berdly’s eventual embarrassment for those that noticed.


Of all the monsters currently watching this disaster unfold, Ralsei had the best view of Berdly’s newly revealed privates. Yes, he had already seen them earlier that day when he was putting the diaper on, but now he was watching them bounce around in the wild, out in the open air! Now, he could take in the finer details of Berdly’s most private areas, although it was a slight challenge with them dancing all over the place like his feet were. He saw that Berdly’s foreskin wrapped gently over his tip, a little extra skin on the end sealing the sensitive head inside. Ralsei could also tell that even though he and Berdly were getting older and approaching the upper grades of school, his penis didn’t appear to be growing at all. In fact, Ralsei presumed that he maybe didn’t grow *at all* since he was little. Sure, he didn’t have the chance to look at Berdly’s intimate parts when he was younger, but seeing how they looked now, he really couldn’t imagine them having been any smaller in the past. They were just so little and cute!


Though his wiggling worm was the star of the show, his pert little ball pouch did an incredible job in its supporting role. In fact, Berdly’s tight, scrunched-up sack didn’t flip and flop around like many others’ may have. No, his only jiggled and jostled all while staying extremely close to his pelvis. Perhaps this was another reason that he hadn’t noticed right when the big reveal happened. He was going to find out soon, though, as moving around so quickly with your damp, naked birdy bits out in the open is a pretty distinct and recognizable sensation.


And this sensation roused enough worry from Berdly to cause him to quickly glance down and check if it wasn’t just his nerves playing tricks on him. With just that quick glance, however, all was revealed to him.


“OH MY GOD!” He suddenly shrieked in surprise.


“No no, keep going!” Ralsei tried to keep his attention on the game, “you have a perfect combo! Finish it out!”


“B-B-But I’m…” Berdly started nervously, which made his audience chuckle and point. There was no way he could give up a *perfect combo* though…


“Did he really not know that whole time? That was like ten whole seconds that he just danced and wiggled his widdle winky around!” a certain owl-ish monster gave some embarrassingly detailed commentary.


The fact that *everyone’s* eyes were focused on his most private area, an area he had never shown anyone in the dark world before today, was really starting to mess with his head. They could see all of his little details! Everything that he thought was a well-kept secret between his naked body and his bedroom mirror was now on full display in front of an audience of young, impressionable, arcade-going monsters. Every fold, every feather, every little part…


“It sounds like it’s gonna end soon! Hang in there, Berdly! Or, uh…hang ‘out’ there, heheh,” Ralsei’s joke made the audience laugh along, sparing Berdly from none of the potential embarrassment. Berdly also knew that the song was ending soon, but he was *not* looking forward to the final moves that he knew he’d have to pull off. They already felt embarrassing to do with his clothes on, so this was going to turn his face bright red for sure.


“Hng!” Berdly grunted. He pushed himself off the ground and spread his talons to hit the left and right tiles, switching quickly to hit the up and down tiles and repeating the process for a few fast cycles. Many of the monsters would’ve guessed that there was some kind of earthquake going on with how much things were jiggling beneath the belt for Berdly. Or at least, they were appearing to jiggle as much as they possibly could, what with how tight and compact they were. That little feathery inch was certainly seeing a lot of eyes that day, and freshly out of a fully-soaked diaper, too!


Finally (and it felt like a loooong time for Berdly), the star of the show struck his ending pose and rounded out his perfect combo. It could’ve been a moment that he’d want to remember forever…if he wasn’t naked in front of a bunch of monsters he never met before *and* his crush. D-Did he say…*crush*? No, no, he meant *friend*. Really good friend. Who he might think about naked and touching his bod—NOT THE TIME, BERDLY!


Right after his score appeared on the screen, he no longer needed his wings to support himself and immediately covered up. Powering through the laughter, he bent over to retrieve his pants and diaper from his ankles, though not without consequence.


“He *was* wearing a diaper!” one of the monsters was brash enough to point out.


“And it’s totally yellow!” another more observant one…observed. 


“D-D-Don’t look! Stop!!!” Berdly whined in his very revealing position. Anyone behind him saw his big, berdly butt in all its glory since his tail feathers were flagged thoughtlessly upward. Of course, Ralsei was getting a small kick out of this whole situation, especially in terms of what he was feeling in his more…personal areas. He didn’t want Berdly to suffer too much for it, though, so he decided that now was the time to step in and help his friend out.


“Okay, okay, clear out, guys! This bird needs some privacy, if you can’t already tell from the…” he locked eyes with Berdly’s naked lower half and blushed, “…you get it, just give us some space, please!”


Although the monsters were having a fun time in the audience of Berdly’s little show, they weren’t going to harass him or anything about it, so they cleared the area at Ralsei’s request. Of course, having exposed his naked, pee-covered feathers, Berdly was still feeling awfully embarrassed about the whole thing. At least now he could conceal his privates and big, bulbous butt, so he pulled up his sunken pants and was met with a feeling he could only describe as…soggy.


“Ohhhh my gosh,” Berdly sighed, intensely embarrassed but thankful it was over.


Ralsei put a paw on Berdly’s shoulder. “You okay, Berdly? Sorry I didn’t tell them to go away earlier! It was just so…surprising. To see your—“


“—YOU DON’T HAVE TO SAY IT FOR flock’s sake…” Berdly lowered his volume before choosing harsher language to express his embarrassment and frustration, though Ralsei still gasped in surprise.


“Sorry, sorry!” Ralsei quickly tried to control the damage. “Well…if it helps, I-I think it was, uh, cute.”


“C-C-Cute?!” Berdly’s face re-flushed and he dug his wings between his legs out of embarrassment (even though everything was already covered up again). Was Ralsei seriously talking about his most personal parts so directly like this? The blue bird felt a strange tingling deep in his chest, and this time below his waist as well. He felt so…*cute* hearing Ralsei say his ‘thing’ was *cute*, though that was probably to be expected.


“Sorry, did I say too much?!” Ralsei worried he had hurt Berdly in some way, but it was actually the opposite.


“No, no! It’s just…I was always worried it was too small,” he admitted maybe a little too loudly, making some of the monsters with good hearing snicker to themselves.


“Just so you know,” Ralsei smiled at Berdly, “mine’s not much bigger.”


“Wha—? Your……it isn’t?”


“Nope. And you don’t just have to take my word for it. After all, I’m gonna be needing a change when we get home, too. I *can* do it by myself, but it’s *so* much easier if I’ve got someone there to help me. Y’know, with the cleaning and powdering and all that stuff.”


Ralsei was blowing Berdly’s mind. That super-embarrassing position he was in only an hour or so ago…he was gonna see Ralsei like that? Oh *gosh*.


“Y-You mean…?” Berdly stuttered.


“C’mon! And we should smoke again when we get home, too. It can make a change much more fun than you’d think,” said Ralsei.


*’Fun’ probably won’t be an issue,* thought Berdly, his heart already racing with excitement. “Yeah, let’s get going,” he happily agreed. 


“Oh, but first! I’ve gotta make that stop for your surprise!” Ralsei thankfully remembered.


“Huh?…Oh yeah! You said something about that earlier.”


“It’ll be sure to brighten your day up after all *that* happened,” he assured the blue bird. “Just wait outside at the front for me, I’ll only be a couple minutes.” Ralsei dashed over to the escalator and embarked on his mini-adventure. Berdly went in the same direction to wait outside, avoiding eye contact with any of the monsters around him who might’ve seen way more of his feathers than he would’ve liked.


The sweet goat prince was true to his word and showed up back at the arcade in only a matter of minutes. In his paw, he held a mystery bag with bunched-up tissue paper concealing its contents.


“You—you didn’t have to get me anything,” Berdly blushed, for a much less embarrassing reason this time. “What is it?”


“Hey, I said it was gonna be a surprise, didn’t I? Let’s get home and get changed first, then I’ll show you.”


On the walk back, Berdly was so lost in his (potentially naughty) thoughts about Ralsei that he wasn’t even bothered by the uncomfortable sensations his soaked diaper was causing him downstairs. They didn’t talk much on the way back, and they were moving a little more quickly than normal. It seemed that the boys were in fervent anticipation of what was to come.


Once they arrived back at his castle, Ralsei set the bag down and brought Berdly out to the courtyard again, producing another beautifully-rolled joint from his robe’s pocket.


“This one is a cross between some OG genetics and a Blue Dream pheno I found. Definitely better yields with pressing it, but I think the flower itself is a really clean smoke, and the terpenes really come through well on the exhale.”


“Oh, y-yeah!” Berdly *totally* knew what Ralsei was saying. “The torpedoes, yeah.”


Ralsei giggled. “You can take the first puff this time. Hold it in your beak and I’ll light it for you. All you’ve gotta do is inhale, but not too much.”


“Okay, so kinda like last time,” Berdly carefully took the joint and put the thinner end in his beak like he was asked. Ralsei sparked the lighter and Berdly started sucking gently, pulling in the smoke that was beginning to form. He took a small drag and puffed it out, coughing a bit into his wing. “Wow. It actually tastes a little like blueberries!…and smoke…”


“Hehehe, yep…” Ralsei took hold of the joint and continued smoking. It didn’t take long for Berdly and him to finish it off, and before they knew it, they were back inside for the big event. “Alright, you probably remember where it is, but I can lead us there anyways.”


“Wait……where are we going?” Berdly asked.


“……..uh….oh no. I think I forgot.”


Berdly snickered, which made Ralsei break right out into laughter. 


“Hold on, hold on,” Ralsei giggled, “let’s retrace our steps. We just came home from the arcade, and that was because…”


“Ah! No no no don’t say it!” Berdly realized and pleaded, though even he was finding this whole situation more funny than embarrassing at the moment.


“It’s okay! It was just a wardrobe malfunction!” Ralsei reassured his friend.


“Yeah, but the…the other monsters…I’m worried about what they’ll…uh…”


“What?”


“I…I forgot.”


The bud was as good as Ralsei said it was. Maybe finishing the whoooole joint was a little overambitious, though.


“……..OH YEAH! The diapers, hehehehehehe,” Ralsei started laughing even harder than before. “Follow meeeee!”


The boys excitedly made their way up the stairs and down the hall to return to the place that had Berdly feeling so bashful earlier. Only this time, both of them were going to have to spread out on their backs and show off. How many times was Berdly going to experience this embarrassment today?! 


“You wanna help change me first?” Ralsei bravely volunteered, for which Berdly was very grateful.


“S-Sure!” the blue bird waited awkwardly as Ralsei climbed onto the soft padding and lay down on his back.


“Okay, do you wanna open it up or should I?” the goat prince asked.


“I can do it if you’d like!” Berdly said eagerly. He stepped to the front of the table and reached to either side of Ralsei’s hips. The sudden touch of the blue bird’s feathers on those parts of his body tickled the goat-boy; he tried his best to remain still so as not to give Berdly too much trouble. The blue bird detached the flaps holding Ralsei’s diaper up and pulled the front in towards him. Ralsei didn’t say a word, but he didn’t need to. His friend was completely entranced by the sight before him. Right there, right in front of him, was Ralsei’s cute little penis and balls hiding between his hips. Not only his diaper but also the the fur around and on his private areas were tinted yellow from letting everything flow earlier. The weight in Berdly’s chest grew heavier—in a good way.


“Wow…” he said.


“Wow?” Ralsei smiled.


“Uh—I mean—nice…penis?”


Ralsei didn’t know how to respond to that other than to laugh, which in turn made Berdly laugh as well.


“The wipes are on the shelf beneath you if you wanna help clean me up. It’s pretty soaked into my fur right now…” explained Ralsei.


Berdly reached down and grabbed them, but paused after coming back up. “Wait. You want me to clean your…?”


“I said we were changing each other, didn’t I? This is part of the process. It’s a little…personal, but I trust you, Berdly,” Ralsei said warmly.


“O-Okay!” He opened the container and pulled a wipe out. With his eyes on his cute, squishy targets, he moved his wing into Ralsei’s most sensitive area and made contact with the fur right above his privates. Immediately, he felt Ralsei squirm a bit under the wipe, but he still had a relaxed smile on his face.


“Sorry, I’m a little ticklish,” he said as Berdly ran the wipe through his fur and began to clean up the yellow stuff.


“That’s okay!” Berdly replied eagerly again. “Is it, uh, is it okay if I wipe a little…lower?”


“Hehe! I need to get clean there too, don’t I?” Ralsei made a good point, so carefully, Berdly moved the wipe down until it made contact with the squishy, 1-inch nub tucked shyly above his furry pouch. Only that thin layer of fabric separated Berdly’s wingtip from Ralsei’s penis, and he could feel every part of it in intimate detail. He could feel the head of Ralsei’s small wiener under his foreskin, which glided over the tip of his tender organ as Berdly pushed the wipe in to clean up more of his urine. He could’ve sworn that he felt it growing in size ever so slightly, but he didn’t want to make this any more awkward than it had to be, so he moved down to his cute little sack. “Be gentle, okay?”


“Don’t worry, I will,” assured Berdly. Pressing the wipe into his soft fur once more, he identified Ralsei’s little balls hiding underneath and made sure to be as careful as he could. Ralsei giggled again from all of the intimate touching. Normally he would just be cleaning himself, but this was…*wow*. Satisfied with how much whiter the fur on his privates was looking, Berdly went to tuck the wipe into some of the harder-to-reach spots: down over his taint, where his bits met his thighs, everywhere that mattered. Before long, he was finally done! Though, Berdly would’ve been lying if he said he didn’t want it to last just a little longer.


“Phew, thank you,” Ralsei said with a hint of enamorment in his voice. “You think you could toss the diaper too? The bin’s right behind you.” The white-furred goat lifted his naked butt from the diaper below to allow Berdly access. Berdly pulled it out and folded it up (careful not to touch the pee) before he tossed it in the bin over his shoulder.


“Okay, s-so now some powder and a fresh one?” Berdly asked. Little did he know, Ralsei had something different in mind.


“Actually, I was thinking of maybe going without the diaper for a bit,” he said, which had Berdly surprised. “And now that I mention it, this robe feels like it’s getting a little stuffy too.”


“Your robe? Are you saying you’re just gonna…?”


“Take it off? Kinda! Only if it’s okay with you, though. I know that’s a little weird, but it feels…*natural* with you here. Normally I walk around here naked anyway! Or in just a diaper, whatever I’m feeling like.”


Berdly’s imagination took these images and ran far away into a blissful state of picturing what Ralsei would look like walking around the castle with his bits and his cheeks bouncing and jiggling. *What a sight that’d be,* he thought.


“Y-Yeah! That’s just fine!” Berdly was happy to grant Ralsei permission to show off his boy parts more freely. His day had been a bit rough because of the *incident* at the arcade, but it was certainly getting a lot better now. 


“Great!” he cheered and pulled his robes over his head. Berdly watched Ralsei expose the rest of his naked, white fur. He didn’t have a shred of clothing on now, save for his adorable glasses. His privates bounced around a bit as he swung his legs to the side and hopped off of the changing table. “Alright, your turn now!”


“O-Oh!” Berdly swiftly got to work removing his futuristic armor, dropping it on the ground with a *clank* and pulling the black shirt underneath it over his head.


“No no no, your diaper!” Ralsei started to laugh at Berdly’s apparent hastiness to get naked. “B-But, you can keep doing that if you want.”


Berdly was *very* high and already in the process of pulling it past his beak, so there wasn’t really any going back without making things extremely awkward. Now that he thought about it, though, he decided that getting naked with Ralsei wasn’t such a bad-sounding idea. In fact, it actually sounded pretty great. “Yeah, I-I’ll take mine off too!” He tossed his shirt onto the floor and dropped his pants and little green drape things to his ankles, carefully stepping his talons out. There he was, now in just his diaper, which was about to come off as well. 


He pushed himself onto the table and proceeded to get in the same helpless position he had been in just a couple hours earlier. Only this time, Ralsei would be able to see the entirety of his naked, blue, feathery body. He braced himself for the embarrassment. “Okay, I’m ready.”


So was Ralsei. Totally naked, and with his penis and balls juuuust in Berdly’s view, he grabbed onto the flaps on either side of the blue bird’s diaper and detached them from the back, pulling it towards him slowly. Berdly’s diaper seemed to be just as soaked as his was, and although his blue feathers made it difficult to see how much pee had been soaked in, they were definitely a little darker on his nethers than the rest of his body.


And speaking of his nethers, Ralsei was able to yet again revel in the glow of his friend’s special berd parts. Now seeing them for the third time that day, he tried to pick up all the details he might’ve missed the first two times around. Just like his own, Berdly’s foreskin fully covered his head, and also just like his own, it was pretty small. He was happy they shared this feature; he was always a little worried about getting made fun of for his size, but with Berdly, he didn’t have to be anxious.


“Uhh…Ralsei—?”


“—Wha—?! Oh, sorry! I wasn’t staring!” he tried to defend himself, though he ended up just implicating himself instead.


“…Yeah you were.”


“…….Okay, fine, I was,” he admitted, which now made Berdly start giggling.


“It’s okay, hehehehe, I was staring at yours too. Still am.”


Ralsei looked down at his own privates and blushed. He compared his very familiar white button with the exciting and adorable new penis before his eyes. It was difficult to fight the temptation to push his pelvis forward and squish their privates together. He could imagine the feelings that would bring him, his soft and squishy bits pushed right up against Berdly’s…


 “Alright, I’m gonna wipe you up now,” warned Ralsei, now pulling a wipe out from the container under him. He started at the same place Berdly did on him and immediately noticed the warmth underneath his feathers. This was *very* different than just cleaning himself up. He got into Berdly’s feathers and wiped up any pee that was still stuck in there. This suddenly made Berdly squirm, though that wasn’t the only thing that happened…


*plplp*


A small surge of pee squirted from Berdly’s tip, *right* in front of Ralsei! The heat rose to his cheeks again, and his stomach sank, worried that he accidentally got it on his friend’s arm. Luckily for him, it only shot up a couple inches in the air and landed with the rest of his wee in his diaper, but it was still extremely embarrassing to have it happen in front of such a cute, kind prince.


“Oop! Looks like you weren’t done, huh?” Ralsei teased the vulnerable bird spread out before him.


“S-Sorry! I didn’t get it on you, did I?” Berdly seemed a bit panicked.


“No, you’re good! It looked kinda funny, though,” laughed Ralsei. “Get ready, I’m about to wipe…*it*.”


“Oh, *it*?” Berdly was confused, though his question was immediately answered when Ralsei went in and started wiping down his little button. “Oh! *That*!” Ralsei’s fingers felt magical rubbing through the feathers that were so private to him. Sure, he was just helping to clean up, but it felt *really good*. So good that Berdly felt his tiny pecker enlarging just a bit before the goat prince moved down to his balls. He was just as gentle as Berdly was with his, and the bird gave a sigh of relief that he wouldn’t need to worry about any pain down there. It took a fair amount of rubbing around, but Ralsei finally finished with Berdly’s most sensitive parts and moved on to catch the nooks and crannies he hadn’t hit yet.


“Oooo, hehehe!” Berdly suddenly giggled feeling Ralsei’s wipe-shielded paw on his taint. He never really paid attention to that part of himself, but Ralsei certainly knew how to make him squirm by touching it.


It wasn’t much longer before all of the cleanup was finished. Berdly lifted his rear end from the changing table and allowed Ralsei to pull the soaked diaper out from underneath him. His bare, feathery butt felt strange on the faux-leather surface, so he turned to the side and hopped off, no doubt giving Ralsei another show with his bouncing button and tight coin purse. Now, both of the boys were naked, alone but with each other. Berdly was unsure of what to do next, but Ralsei helped to keep their fun going. 


“So…you wanna see that surprise I was telling you about?” he finally asked.


“Yes!” Berdly answered without hesitation. “I’ve been wondering what it is for a bit now!”


“Well, it’s kind of a two-parter,” Ralsei explained. “First I’ve gotta run down and grab that bag. Wait out in the hall for me, okay?”


“Whatever you say!” Berdly smiled and watched Ralsei’s bouncy cheeks bound off out the door and down the stairs. He ran right back up, and waiting at the top, Berdly watched Ralsei’s own bits flop back and forth with each leap up the steps. After landing at the top, he led his avian friend down the hall to a room that none of his friends had seen before.


“Hey, wasn’t this one ‘under construction’ or something?” Berdly asked. 


“It *was*,” Ralsei answered, “but now it’s finished! Wanna take a look?”


“Uh…sure! What’s in there?” he was very curious.


“You’ll see…”


Slowly, Ralsei twisted the knob with his paw and opened the door to reveal to Berdly what was hiding behind. At the first sight of the interior, he audibly gasped.


“Oh my gosh!!! OH MY GOSH!” he could hardly contain his excitement when he was met with the spectacular sight: his very own room in the castle! There was no mistaking it was his; the light blue colors, the RGB-lighting accents, the nest-shaped bed, the authentic mint-condition Virtual Boy, the…wait! A *mint condition* Virtual Boy?!?! “Is…is that…?”


“Yep! It’s exactly what you think it is,” Ralsei glowed knowing that his friend could now see all his hard work.


“How did…how did you get one?!” he scurried over to check it out, his cheeks of course bouncing with just as much excitement as his heart.


“It wasn’t easy, but I wanted it to be a good surprise, so I enlisted the queen’s help in searching for one. After a while, she found that one in-box at the bottom of an old dumpster. The box was ruined but the system inside was totally fine, as you can see.”


Berdly felt absolutely humbled by the gift before him. He had no idea how to thank Ralsei for going to through the trouble of procuring it, so he just followed his first instinct and ran over to hug him. The goat prince would’ve been staring at his bouncing worm ’n’ eggs if the bird didn’t have such a happy smile on his beak. Berdly wrapped his wings around Ralsei’s naked body, and his privates even came into contact with the soft fur on his upper thigh. He turned red and let go to step away, though he was still giddy with excitement.


“I never thought I’d be so excited about seeing such a terrible console,” Berdly joked. “You have any games for it?”


“That was actually the second part of the surprise!” Ralsei held the bag he had in his paw out to Berdly. “Go ahead and open it up!”


“Wow! You really didn’t need to do all this, Ralsei,” Berdly blushed.


“Well, I wanted to give you a warm welcome to the castle! And it’s a little cold without our clothes on right now, so…”


Berdly continued to glow red thanks Ralsei’s mention of that. He checked down to see his intimate parts jiggle a bit again as he slightly moved his hips. Enough of that, though; he had a gift to open! He pulled the tissue paper out from the bag to reveal not one, but two virtual boy games waiting at the bottom: 3D Tetris and…Koala Klimb?!


“What the—the dark world has a *Virtual Boy* edition of this game?!” Berdly was pleasantly shocked, and Ralsei could only giggle in delight.


“Yeah, it was reeeally popular here back in the day,” said Ralsei. “And actually, I’ve got one more extra part of the surprise…”


“You DO?!” Berdly was feeling absolutely spoiled.


“Yeah, check it out!” Ralsei stepped over to the Virtual Boy and turned on the monitor sitting next to it on the desk. “The real screen hurts your eyes, and we wouldn’t be able to play it together, so I modded it to show on the screen!” He booted up the Virtual Boy and watched Berdly’s jaw drop. At a complete loss for words, his blue-feathered friend gave him a big ol’ hug yet again.


“Raaaalseiiii, you’re the BEST!” In that moment, both of them felt so warm and giddy. Ralsei didn’t have many other friends in the dark world, so meeting someone he could have this much fun with was really changing his perspective. And speaking of perspective, he couldn’t help glancing down one more time to check on their bouncing balls and buttons. He didn’t want to appear as if he was staring, though, so he suggested to boot up Koala Klimb again and try for a new high score this time.


“I put a real big bean bag in here too, and I think we could both fit on it if you wanna play games like that!” the sweet prince suggested.


“Oh! A-Are you sure? Wouldn’t we be really close? And…naked?” Berdly seemed nervous about putting Ralsei off.


“Well, we’ve already been pretty close today, haven’t we? I mean, I saw *everything* when I helped with your diaper,” Ralsei reminded him. “And so did you.”


“Ah—y-yes, I suppose that’s true…I guess it couldn’t hurt,” Berdly ignored his anxieties and let it all happen. “It would be really nice, actually, now that I’m thinking about it.”


“Well, time for less *think*ing and more *do*ing!” He flopped onto the bean bag and patted the space next to him for Berdly to take up. And take up he did! Though, he accidentally left the controller on the table. After landing in the soft comfort and warmth of the spot next to this adorable prince, however, he realized there was no way his high self could get back up. He turned to Ralsei.


“Woah. This is...*really* comfortable,” he said. “I forgot the controller, but…I kinda just wanna stay like this.”


Ralsei turned red again. “Wow…me too,” he smiled. “To be honest, I feel so high that I just wanna drift off with you here.”


“Hahaha…same here. Being ‘high’, huh? I guess that’s what I’d call this feeling. It’s reeeeally nice.”


With only each other to focus on, Ralsei and Berdly were truly immersed in the intimacy of the moment. Right there, snuggled up next to each other, they could feel their warmth being shared.


“Hey…” Ralsei decided that it was finally time to make his move.


“Yes?” And Berdly was ready to hear it.


“Do you think it’d be okay if I…if I hugged you right now?”


“H-Hug me? Of course!” He was so happy that Ralsei said it; he was so tempted to just reach out his wings and embrace Ralsei himself. Feeling more at ease, the goat prince reach his arms around Berdly’s and brought his left leg up to rest over his friend’s. “Wow…” Berdly smiled, “your fur is so soft and warm.”


“I could say the same about your feathers,” Ralsei smiled back.


“Hehehehehe,” Berdly blushed and giggled. It wasn’t often he was so overtly complimented like that. “Can I touch your fur, too?”


“Of course you can,” Ralsei said sweetly. So, Berdly reached his wingtips out to caress the goat-boy’s smooth fur. The two of them felt so connected in this moment that looking into each other’s eyes only brought one desire to their minds. The boys slowly brought their faces together before suddenly, they made contact.


*smoooooch!*


Their hearts leapt, and their spirits sang. This was a first for them, so the feeling was absolutely electric. Pulling back, Berdly was the first to speak.


“Hey, Ralsei?”


“Yeah?”


“Do you think we could do this…like…every day?”


Ralsei laughed. “Hahahaha. Of course, but only if you can help with my diaper changes. It was a real help having you clean up down there this time.”


Berdly laughed too. “Hehehe, okay, deal!”
