Prologue

In the magical land of Equestria, hidden high up in the Foal Mountains, was a small town called Poofquestria. A silly name perhaps, and one you wouldn’t be able to find on any official maps, as only half whispered rumours even hinted at the town’s fabled existence. This ensured that only those actively looking for Poofquestria would be able to find it, a small safety measure given the town’s unusual founding principles.

For the most part, the small idilic town was no different than any other town despite its secretive location. The town had a small population of only a couple hundred ponies, giving it a very “every pony knows every pony” feel to it. The town was also surprisingly self-sufficient, outside of a small list of necessary imports to keep the townsfolk happy. The one thing that set it apart from every other town in Equestrian would become painfully obvious the moment anyone entered the town.

For you see, in Poofquestria, every pony no matter their gender or species wore diapers. And not just any diapers either, but massive, padding filled diapers that resembled overstuff pillows, were covered in a never ending variety of cute and adorable prints, and caused every pony to walk with an adorably pronounced waddle. To the ponies who lived in Poofquestria, diapers to them were little more than a normal piece of clothing, like how a mare might wear a dress or a stallion might wear a shirt to go out. Barely any pony so much as batted an eye at seeing their friends and neighbours walking around in such poofy, foalish garments every minute of everyday, except to occasionally stop and compliment them on their diaper’s thickness, cute designs, or to politely point out that the pony was in need of a change.

Whether they used their diapers as simply clothing or for their “intended purpose” was also an accepted practice within the town. Among the ponies who called the town home included those who had one way or another been rendered completely incontinent and had sought out a place they could live without needing to hide or live in shame for what they couldn’t control, ponies who were not incontinent but still enjoyed using their diapers either at all times or only whenever they felt the desire to do so, and ponies who wore but did not use their diapers for such purposes at all and simply enjoyed the feeling of having their plot enveloped in thick and fluffy padding at all times.

No matter their reason, what had lead them all to Poofquestria in the first place was their love of big, poofy diapers, and it was that love that helped them to live in peace with one another, free to enjoy themselves without feeling ashamed of their odd or taboo desires, the town motto proudly proclaiming, “A Diapered Pony is a Happy Pony!”

And it is here, where our many tales begin.

Welcoming

Cutting through another patch of overgrown foliage, Walnut Glaze wiped a bead of sweat from his brow before taking a long drink from his canteen. Returning the canteen to his bags, the light brown Earth Pony pulled out his small notebook as he reread the directions he had been given. Of course, said directions had been given to him by several less than talkative sources, resulting in some guess work as to whether or not he was on the right path or just walking in circles.

“Start at the base of Foal Mountain… Keep going North until you hit a stream, then follow that stream until you reach a bolder that looks like a pear… Follow the midday sun through the forest until you find a sign that your destination is not far…” He read to himself, looking around for any hint or landmark that could indicate that he was heading the right way. He had been walking for what felt like hours, and the sun helmet he had purchased at the train station was the only thing keeping him from collapsing from heat stroke, while the jungle outfit he wore made dealign the bugs only slightly more bearable. In frustration, he hurled his machete into the forest, hearing it strike wood not far from him. Grumbling to himself, Walnut trotted over to retrieve his machete in order to continue his journey.

However, as he pushed aside an overgrown vine, his eyes widened at what lay before him. He had found his machete, but what it had hit wasn’t a tree like he had first thought, but a wooden post. And on that wooden post was the sign he had been searching so long for.

A sign that read in bright blue lettering “Poofquestria: This way!”, an arrow pointing to a clearly maintained pathway that cut right through the forest.

Overcome with excitement, Walnut took off at a run, his hooves pounding against the pavement for several minutes before he spotted the makings of a town in the distance, only increasing his speed. Before long, Walnut reached the hidden town, skidding to a halt and panting for breath as he gazed up at the sign above the entrance that proclaimed “Welcome to Poofquestria!”

Finally, after weeks of searching, he had finally found it. Stepping through the open entranceway, Walnut’s jaw nearly hit the ground at what he saw.

All around him ponies of all descriptions strolled through the streets, a pronounced waddle in their steps thanks to the massive diapers every pony wore. Walnut had never seen such big and poofy diapers in all his life, like giant pillows softly hugging everypony’s behind. As he picked his jaw back up off the ground, a smile slowly spread across Walnut’s face. “Everything the tales said were true!”

“And more.”

Walnut almost jumped out his skin as a voice spoke from right beside him. As his heart rate went back down to normal again, he glanced over at the pony who had spoken. A cherry red unicorn with a yellow and orange mane had walked up to him without making a sound, despite the large diaper covered with flame designs he was wearing. “I… uh…”

“New around here, I take it?” The unicorn chuckled as he turned his head to look the Earth Pony in the eyes.. “Name’s Cherry Burn, and I remember when I first arrived, I had about the same reaction as you. Course, I’m guessing by the fact that you were able to find this place at all that you’re no stranger to diapers, now are ya?” As if to confirm this, Cherry Burn stepped back and poked a hoof against Walnut’s covered behind, feeling a familiar of soft cushion underneath his outfit.

“Eeep!” Walnut’s face was bright red with embarrassment, his tail instinctively tucking between his legs as she shied away from the touchy unicorn.

“Sorry about that, mate. Just making sure. So, you got a name or what?”

“W-Walnut. Walnut G-Glaze.”

“Nice meetin’ ya, Walnut, and let me be the first to welcome ya to our fine town of Poofquestria!”

Walnut felt some of his embarrassment fade at he once more glanced around him at all the ponies going about in their thick and poofy diapers without a care in the world. He had dreamed of this day for so long, and now that it was here he found himself at a loss as to what to do next.

“Hey, Poofquestria to Walnut? You still with me, mate?”

Snapping out of his stupor, Walnut quickly replied, “Sorry! I just… there’s so much to take in.”

“Care for a tour, then?”

“Uh.. sure, if it’s not too much trouble…”

“Ah, no trouble at all, mate! Now follow me, I know just the place to start!”

And so, Walnut followed behind his new friend as he was lead deeper into Poofquestria. Along the way Cherry would greet ponies cheerfully, complimenting them on anything from their looks to how fashionable their diapers were. Walnut stayed quiet through out it all, looking away quickly whenever a pony noticed him staring in awe at their padded rump for too long. “Uh… Cherry? Where are we going?”

“Why, where else? Can’t in good conscience let you continue to walk around in those paper thin excuses for padding, so our first stop is to get you into some proper diapers first!”

Walnut felt like he could die of embarrassment at how openly Cherry was talking about getting him a new diaper, glancing around frightfully to see if anyone had heard. So distracted was he that Walnut didn’t noticed that Cherry had stopped until he bumped face first into Cherry’s puffy rear, his face becoming enveloped in a sweet smelling cloud of poof for a brief moment before he stumbled back in surprise. “S-Sorry!”

“Ah, it’s cool, mate. Happens all the time,” Cherry replied with the same chill expression as before. “Well, here we are!” Gesturing upward, Walnut glanced up at where Cherry was indicating to see that they’d stop infront of a store, the sign about it reading “Patty’s Poofy Posteriors!”

“Is… is this a…”

“Yeppers! Best diaper shop in town! Now come on, let me introduce ya to the owner.”

Still in a state of utter disbelief, Walnut did as he was told and followed Cherry into the store, the bell above the door jingling above his head as he stepped across the threshold.

If just walking into town had been an experience, then stepping into the shop was like walking into a whole different world. Super thick and poof filled diapers filled the shelves as far as the eye could see, ranging from simple white to every colour and design imaginable that any diaper-loving pony could ever want.

It’s official: I’ve died and gone to heaven.

Walking past the starstruck Walnut, Cherry hollered, “Hey, Patty! Ya here?”

“Coooomming!” Came a mare’s voice from within the store, before a light yellow Earth Pony mare with a twin green mane, and wearing a store uniform came trotting into view. Like the rest of the town’s inhabitants, she was wearing a poofy diaper on her behind, one that as she got closer Walnut could see was a slight shade of pink and covered in designs of flowers.

Not that he was staring or anything…

“Good to see ya, Cherry. How ya doi–“ She halted mid-step as she let out a loud gasp, her eyes positively lighting up as she barrelled forward and enveloped the unprepared Walnut in a hug. “Who is this!? A new friend!?”

“This be Walnut, Patty,” Cherry replied, his hoof pressed to his mouth in an attempt to hold back his laughter. “He’s new here, so I figured why not come to the best diaper selling pony I know to help him?”

Pulling away from Walnut, Patty grabbed his hoof with both of her hooves and vigorously shook it up and down. “Welcome to my store, Walnut, where we sell only the best and thickest diapers in all of Equestria! Any preference? Colour? Design? Prints?”

It took a moment for Walnut to stop shaking from the sudden hoof shake he had experienced, barely enough time to catch his bearings as he was suddenly bombarded with questions from the easily excitable mare. “Uh… Uh… Do you… Do you have any in plain white?” Walnut eventually replied, berating himself for going with such a lame and boring option when he was literally surrounded by the most colourful diapers he had ever seen.

Patty didn’t so much bat an eye as she said, “One plain white, coming up!” , turning around and running deeper into the store. She was gone but a moment before she returned, this time carrying a plain white diaper on her back. “Here you go!”

As Walnut held the diaper in his hooves, he found that his earlier comparison of a pillow had been far more accurate than he had thought, cause if he didn’t know any better he would be sure that he was holding just an overstuffed pillow in his hooves and not a diaper.

He had to have it. “How much?”

“First diaper is on the house! Consider it a gift to welcome you into our little town!”

“Really?” Walnut was at a loss from the cheer generosity on display, managing to squeak out a quick, “Thank you…”

“Well, what ya waiting for, mate?” Cherry Burns said. “Put it on!”

If Walnut’s face got any redder, ponies might start mistaking him for a tomato. “R–Right here?!”

“If ya want…” Patty said with a sly glint in her eyes before pointing towards the opposite side of the store. “Changing rooms are over there, sweetie. Just holler if you’d like some help.”

Nodding, Walnut trotted over towards the changing rooms, still clutching the thick diaper he had been given tightly as he stepped into the room and closed the door behind him, finding it to be far bigger than any changing room he had ever seen back home, likely to accommodate his soon to be new attire.

“Well… here goes nothing…” Removing his saddlebags and setting them down, Walnut slowly began undressing himself from his jungle outfit, reveal the plain white diaper he had been wearing during his journey. It was still as clean as when he had put it on, as Walnut mostly enjoyed the feel, comfort and, strangely enough, the small boost of confidence that wearing diapers brought him. Removing it as well, Walnut stashed both it and his outfit into his saddlebags (save for his hat, of course) before turning his attention to the poofy diaper he had been given.

Slowly unfurling the diaper, he carefully positioned himself over it, with just laying his plot down onto it resulting in his rear sinking into the soft padding as he treaded his tail through the hole. Just as he was prepared to pull up the front and begin taping himself in, he spotted a bottle of foal powder sitting within hoof’s reach nearby.

Why not? Grabbing the bottle of powder and twisting the cap, the air became filled with a cloud of sweet smelling powder as he sprinkled a more than generous amount onto his lower half and into the diaper itself. Once he was satisfied, he finally brought up the front of the diaper and carefully taped himself into it. “One… two… three… and four! Done!” With diaper finally secured, Walnut rolled onto his belly and slowly stood up.

For the second time, Walnut felt like he was in heaven. Trying to compare wearing the flimsy diapers he had worn for so long before this to the sheer mass that now enveloped his rear was like trying to compare a sandbox to the San Palomino Desert. Taking a small step, Walnut nearly fell flat onto his padded rear at how much the padding pushed apart his back legs and turned his walk into a waddle. Taking several more careful steps, Walnut was able to confidently walk around the changing room, though the waddle would still take some getting used to.

The greatest thing to result from the new diaper was the sudden swell of confidence Walnut felt. Before, he had been barely able to work up the courage to wear a diaper even under clothes, now he felt like he could waltz around town without a care at who saw him. This air of new confidence was almost palatable as he emerged from the changing rooms to find Cherry Burn and Patty eagerly awaiting his return.

“It suits you perfectly!” Patty cheered as she clapped her hooves in excitement.

“How’s it feel, mate?”

The newly confidence Walnut didn’t even hesitate to reply with, “Feels amazing, almost indescribably even. I like it!”

“I knew ya would, mate! Now that you’re all nice and dressed up, how about we continue that tour I promised? I’ve got some friends I know you’ll just love to meet!”

Beaming from ear to ear, Walnut gave a quick thank you to Patty before him and Cherry barrelled out of the store, bumping their diapered hips together as they raced through past other ponies. While Walnut knew in the back of his mind that he was only visiting and would soon have to leave Poofquestria for his home, he was already making plans to make his time spent in this padded paradise a far more permanent affair.

Thus was the inescapable allure of the little town nestled in the Foal Mountains that was Poofquestria.

The character Patty Cakes belongs to Kurikia, I'm merely borrowing her for the moment.

Tea Time

Like most towns in Equestrian, social gatherings with friends around drinks and food were a staple in the town of Poofquestria. Once such group met every Thursday at the lead member’s house, largely focused on gossiping and talking about everything new that had happened to them over the week.

“She did not!” One of the ponies, a unicorn mare with a light yellow coat and gold coloured mane with a white swirl in it named Honeycomb Swirl, gasped as she looked towards her friend. True to her namesake, Honeycomb was wearing a bright yellow diaper with little bee prints all over it.

“Oh, mark my diapers, she did! Can you believe it?” Confirmed another unicorn mare by the name of Silk Heart, who was a light pink mare with a light red mane. Just like Honeycomb, Silk Heart was wearing a poofy diaper that matched her namesake, covered in little designs of hearts.

The third member of their group, a yellow earth pony mare with a light green mane named Daffodil, giggled loudly along with her friends as she took a sip of her tea. Going with the theme of the group, her diaper was also covered in prints matching her namesake, in this case little daffodils. All three diapers now served as comfortable cushions for them as they all sat around Silk Heart’s kitchen table, complete with tea and snack cakes.

“Berry Bliss?” Silk Heart said as she looked across the table at the newest member of they group. “You’ve been pretty quiet… is something wrong?”

Berry Bliss, a pegasus mare with a raspberry red coat and purple mane, looked up at her friends. “Oh! Sorry, I just… can’t really think of much to talk about…” she said as she shifted slightly in her seat, her diaper crinkling loudly with every movement of her rear. Like them, her own poofy diaper was covered in little adorable raspberry designs like her namesake.

“Well…” Silk Heart began as she popped a sugar cube into her tea and began to stir it in. “It’s been a few weeks since you moved to our lovely little town, hasn’t it?”

“Just over a month, yes.” Berry replied.

“And how have you been adjusting to the new lifestyle since then? I remember you mentioning before about how you were having trouble sleeping while diapered?”

“Still having trouble…” Berry admitted with a sigh, her wings ruffling a bit as she picked up a nearby snack cake and began to munch on it. “I don’t know why, but wearing such big diapers to bed is far too distracting. I just can’t stop thinking about them and end up just tossing and turning for hours until I finally just get fed up and remove it entirely.”

“Ah…” Silk Heart replied with a smile. “Wearing to bed is certainly an experience I would highly recommend, though it can take a while to get used to, that’s for sure. You had similar troubles, didn’t you, Daffodil?”

“Yep. Took me weeks and multiple sleepless nights before I finally got settled. Now I can fall asleep in minutes, no problem. I say just keep at it and eventually it’ll just click. I guarantee you’ll have the best night’s sleep you’ve ever had too.”

“Okay, I’ll try,” Berry replied.

“Other than that, how have you been adjusting to wearing almost 24/7?” Silk Heart inquired.

This brought a genuine smile to Berry’s face. “It’s been amazing! Like everything I dreamed, but more! The feeling of having my rump swaddled in such soft and poofy padding… Mhhhmmm, heaven. It’s like wearing a soft and fluffy cloud, only way better! Also…” Wiggling her rump again, Berry could just barely feel a slight dampness in her diaper. “Not having to worry about cleaning up the toilet has been a major relief.”

The entire group broke out into laughter at that, cackling to themselves like a small coven of witches. “Indeed,” Silk heart agreed once her laughter had died down. “Remind me to tell you the story of my ex-husband sometime. I would rather have spent time in Tartarus than clean up the disaster he left the toilet after only a week!”

“Why do you we even have toilets here?” Honeycomb asked as she munched away on a snack cake. “Every pony wears diapers here, that’s the whole point of this town after all! So why are there some too afraid to use them like they should?”

“We’ve been over this, Honeycomb…” Silk Heart said with a stern tone in her voice and a disapproving glare in her eyes. “This town was founded so that all diaper loving ponies of all kinds could come and live in a safe place where they wouldn’t be judged. That includes ponies who choose to wear diapers as a form of fashion, but choose not to use them for that purpose. I see no fault in it myself, to each their own, after-all.”

“Still seems weird to me…” Honeycomb added as she wiped crumbs from her cheeks with a napkin.

“Remember, to the rest of Equestria, we’re the weird ones!” Silk Heart said as she took a sip of her tea. “On the subject of using our diapers, does anypony here need a change?”

“I’m good,” Berry Bliss was quick to reply.

Daffodil and Honeycomb both took a moment to check the state of their own diapers, having become so accustomed to wearing them that they often didn’t even notice anymore when they became used. “I’m still good too,” Daffodil replied, though Honeycomb appeared less certain.

“I… I think I can go a little bit longer. I’m not quite soaked just yet.”

“Are you sure?” Silk Heart asked. “You don’t want to leak again like before, do you?”

“That was one time! Sweet Celestia, never let me live it down…”

“Oh, I’m just teasing you, Honeycomb. Since we’re all good, who would like a refill on their tea?”

Three empty teacups were raised into the air in response.

And so, the hours just flew by as friends both old and new chatted away about everything and nothing at the same time. Much tea was drank, many snack cakes devoured, and more than one diaper would be in need of a change before the day was done.

Just another peaceful and fun filled day in the town of Poofquestria.
