It was just another day for Tom Nook in his home improvement shop on main street. He had noticed recently that every time the mayor decided to stop by, he wouldn’t buy any of the home modifications Tom had on display! The tanuki, worried that his shop was becoming irrelevant to the mayor, assumed that he wasn’t buying anything because it had been over a week since he refreshed his stock. Nook had ordered new miniature displays a few days prior for the mayor to peruse and decided he’d set them up now in case the mayor came in later that afternoon. He set the box down on the ground to unpack it, but right when he bent over to open it,


*SSHHRRIIIIP*


The tanuki’s eyes went wide and he immediately stood straight up, placing his paws on his rear where he felt his pants rip. To his concern, he felt a large hole in his pants directly over his right cheek. What was more concerning, however, was that he didn’t feel the fabric of his underwear under his paw, but he instead felt fur. 


“What the--” said Tom Nook to himself, “must’ve ripped my underwear there too.”


Lyle heard Nook muttering to himself and got curious. “What’s wrong over there, Tom?” asked the otter, looking in the tanuki’s direction.


“Oh, I dunno,” said Tom, not wanting to explain to Lyle that he just ripped his pants, “just a little...wardrobe malfunction.”


“Oh really?” said Lyle, “you know, I can cover for you if you wanna run over to the Able Sisters to get it looked at.”


“You’d do that?” said Tom, happy he’d get to go fix his problem, “thanks, Lyle!” Holding his tail over the hole in his pants, Tom carefully walked out his door and over into the Able Sisters’ shop.


When the tanuki walked in, Mabel noticed right away. “Tom Nook?!” she exclaimed, “Sable! Look who came over!”


Sable looked up from her sewing machine to see that Tom Nook had indeed decided to come by the shop. “Tom? Hi! Why’d you stop by?” Sable asked, a large blush beginning to form on her face.


“Well, uh, I have a bit of a wardrobe issue I need you to fix,” said Tom, looking a little embarrassed. “My pants sorta ripped in the back.”


“Oh really?” asked Sable, her face now becoming a bit redder, “well, I should be able to patch them right up. Wanna take ‘em off and set them on the table?”


Tom looked a bit confused. “In here? Won’t someone see me in my underwear?”


“Don’t worry, Tommy,” said Mabel with a smile, opening the door to the shop, “I’ll stand outside the door and make sure nobody comes in.”


“Well...okay, if you say so,” said Nook, unbuttoning and unzipping his pants before pulling them off and setting them on Sable’s work table. He didn’t want to look down and feel embarrassed about his undies being on show, so he decided to just keep his eyes on Sable and his ripped pants. He did feel a little breezier than normal, but he attributed it to his undies likely being ripped where his pants were. Unfortunately for the tanuki, however, he didn’t know that he had forgotten to put underwear on this morning. Sable had already grabbed his pants and put them under the needle in her machine before she looked up and noticed that a half-naked tanuki was standing right there in front of her.


“Ah!” Sable gasped in shock, jerking her hands back and ripping Tom’s pants on the needle past the point of being able to fix them.


Tom noticed Sable’s reaction and looked around him, confused at what she had seen...until he looked down. 


“Oh my gosh!” shouted Nook, slapping his paws over his tanuki bits, “s-s-sorry, Sable! I-I didn’t know I was…uh…” Tom tried pulling his shirt down over his privates, but it wouldn’t stretch far enough, leaving him only able to use his paws.


“Um, uh...it’s alright,” said Sable, looking flustered as well. “It’s just…” she looked down at Tom’s unfixable pants and back up to the embarrassed tanuki, “I don’t think I can fix these pants anymore. I might just have to get you fitted for a new pair.”


“A new pair?!” Tom exclaimed, “but I can’t get fitted for them right now, I’m...n-n--”


“--don’t worry, Tom,” said Sable with a little smile and a snicker, “I’ll be quick.” The seamstress opened a drawer in her desk and grabbed some measuring tape. She got up and walked over to Nook, getting on one knee and fumbling with the tape in her paws out of sheer nervousness and excitement. Now that Tom’s parts were at eye level, she couldn’t help but steal a couple glances. What they said about how tanukis were ‘down there’ was certainly true from what she could tell. His paws couldn’t even cover up his furry sack all the way!


“Could you maybe c-close your eyes, Sable?” asked Tom, giving her a sheepish grin.


        “Well, I can’t get you fitted if I can’t see, Tommy,” said Sable, extending the tape from his hip to his ankle. “Besides, we used to play together all the time when we were younger. I’ve seen you like this once or twice.”


        “Well...okay, just...don’t stare for too long,” said Nook defeatedly.


        Sable transitioned from measuring the length of the pants to the circumference of Tom’s ankle, moving up to his leg and then his thigh. She then wrapped the tape around his waist and above his tail. Moving behind him, she held the tape up to his tail to measure for the tail hole in the pants, but noticed that he was keeping his tail tight against his furry rear.


        “Uh, Tom? I need to measure around the base of your tail. Could you lift it up for me?” asked Sable.


        ‘Oh no, she’s gonna see my…’, Tom didn’t even want to finish embarrassing himself with the thought. Slowly and shakily, he lifted his tail for her so she could measure around it, exposing an intimate part that rarely saw the light of day. Sable gasped lightly to herself and blushed even redder upon seeing the pink hole underneath Tom’s tail. Slowly, she wrapped her measuring tape around his tail, trying her best to avoid nudging anything below his tail in the process. When she finished her final measurements at the back, she went to Tom’s front again, still kneeling and looking up to him.


        “Alright, there’s one more measurement to be done,” said Sable, “and it happens to be specific to tanukis…”


        Tom’s stomach dropped upon hearing Sable say this. It had been ages since he had gotten new pants tailored for him, so he had forgotten all about this embarrassing step in the process, made much worse by the fact that it was normally done with underwear on.


        “Your species tends to have very large…*ahem* ‘dangly bits’ and I need to measure how, uh, ‘big’ they are so I know how deep to make the mid section,” Sable said, looking up to see that Nook was blushing even redder than she was, “it’ll only take a second, I swear. I just need you to uncover your...part for a more accurate measurement.”


        “Uncover it?” Tom said sheepishly, looking down and moving his paws slightly away to check how he looked down there. His penis had always been dwarfed by the size of his balls. It sat lightly upon the two globes and wiggled back and forth a bit as he gently swayed his hips a little in nervousness. “Well, okay, just know that it’s kinda cold in here right now!” 


        As the tanuki removed his paws from his bits, Sable’s eyes went wide. She had seen it for a split second after Tom took off his pants, but now it was fully exposed and only inches away from her. She had to admit that it did look very small, especially compared to the size of the two furry orbs hanging beneath it. She caught herself before staring at it for too long and held the measuring tape up to the base of his penis, pulling it down over his tip and to the bottom of his furry scrotum. She got her measurement but noticed that something was poking behind the tape near where she was holding it. Though it took a moment for her to put the pieces together, she realized what was happening and pulled the tape away in shock, looking up to see that Tom’s eyes were still closed out of embarrassment.


        “Uh, Tom?” she asked, a little smile forming as she did so, “your thing is...uh…” Just before Sable could tell him, Mabel burst through the shop’s door.


        “You done yet sis?” she said stepping inside, only to find Nook with a tiny erection and Sable bent over in front of it with measuring tape in her hands. “Oh my gosh! What kind of measurements were you taking in here, sis?”


        Tom’s eyes shot open and he looked down to see that he was sporting an erection, and right in front of Mabel and Sable. “Ah! Sorry, gals!” he said, covering it up with his paws and stepping away.


        Mabel was left in shock, but Sable managed a few words. “T-that’s alright, Tom, I’ll just get those pants made for you lickety-split!” Sable ran over to her sewing machine and raced through all of the stichting, finishing in record time and handing the finished product over to Nook.


        “Thanks, Sable,” Tom said, grabbing the pants and stepping into them, giving the Able sisters one last looks at his bouncing parts. After zipping them up, he failed to notice there was an obvious tent in the front of them. “And, uh, sorry about the...you know...”


        “That’s alright, Tommy,” said Sable. She then leaned over to whisper in his ear. “If it helps, I think you look real cute down there, hehe.”


        Tom blushed redder than he ever had before and walked toward the exit with the tent in his pants throbbing a little. “Bye, Mable. Bye Sable,” he managed to say, walking out the door and back over to Nook’s homes.


        As Nook walked through the door to his own store, Lyle took notice of the bulge he was sporting in his pants. “Woah, Tom, I didn’t know you liked sewing that much!” he said, pointing down at the tanuki’s unimpressive erection.


        “Wha--” said Tom, looking down and seeing that he was still hard as a rock. “Ah! Sorry, Lyle!” he said, covering it up with his paws.


        “What happened over there?” asked the curious river otter.


        “I don’t want to talk about it,” said Tom, shame in his voice. “Let’s just say I’m never leaving home without my underwear on ever again.”
