A story set on the campus of the fictional university of Ardenthill Bioscience and Design University.
The carnival had the same intoxicating smell they all had, no matter what city it was visiting. Cotton candy and fried food were the top layer of the scent, with machine grease forming a heavy undertone. Each time a breeze blew through the rich smells of apples and fallen leaves would join the mix. Camila …
The days leading up to Christmas were magical. Melody had once scoffed at their sister for using that word to describe something as dumb as a holiday, but Briana was right. Waking up every morning next to Rosa and being tenderly cared for by her was magical. Snowball fights in the morning with Briana were …
Monserrat dropped her diaper bag in the closet and rolled her shoulders until her back popped. She was getting home from another successful babysitting session, for another cute baby girl, with another big payout. It’d been Amira’s third time requesting Monserrat as a babysitter. The familiarity had made for a sweet session, but left Monserrat …
The wind was blustering against the house, driving needles of frozen snow and ice into the windows. Everyone in the house was busy getting cozy. Melody was glad that Rosa had agreed to snuggle up in their bedroom. Getting a surprise grandma the night before had been amazing but confusing. Briana was in full hyper-baby …
Camila hung her head as she sat in front of the Heathers. Wearing shorts that barely covered the pink diaper she was wearing, she felt like a naughty kid. Even with Betty next to her, stroking her back, Camila was so embarrassed she felt dizzy. It had been bad enough to wake up in an …
Briana sat on the floor and watched Mom put her war paint on. It was the serious stuff this time. Same black eyeliner as always, but the black eyeshadow was dusting with blue on top. Lipstick and nail polish were both dark blue, like an angry sea. Briana had only seen Mom with blue makeup …
It was cold in Dr. Sienna’s study. Cold enough to have frost on the inside of the windows and for her to have to run a dehumidifier to keep the books from getting damp. The professor kept telling her grad-students that she would use some of her next grant money to put in insulation. Dr. …
It was so weird to be babysat by Briana. Weird that their ultra-Little sister was really good at babysitting. Melody would have said that Briana was just doing whatever she wanted her babysitters to do, but she’d been too responsible for it to be wish-fulfillment. Christmas shopping was fun, but coming home from it was …
Camila had never been happier. She was in Mommy’s room, dressed in a onesie and a thick diaper. Betty had let Camila suck on her beautiful, huge breasts, and put her down for a nap with a pacifier in her mouth. It was almost everything Betty had been ‘threatening’ Camila with since she became Camila’s …
Briana had been watching the clock for over forty minutes. It was now precisely 7am, which is the time that Mom had said they could start getting ready to get the tree. Therefore, it was time for Melody to get up. She snuck past Mom while Veronica was getting some coffee (not that mom had …
