"Carrie? Why did you not hit your opponent with Bug Buzz? He was about to faint?"
“Pretty, pretty pony~”
"Carrie, pay attention!"
"Huh? Oh! Cause I saw Petie-P cheering in the audiance and he looked sooooo cute, looked so cute I had to wave back!"
"... that is why you suddenly stopped in mid air and lost the match!?"
"Brushie brushie the pony's tail~"
"Carrie!"
Toni sighed, she should have realized trying to talk to Carrie about their last match while at her house was a bad idea. The diapered gothita sat on her bed as she watched her yanma friend zipping around happily playing with the toys and dolls Toni had in her room as one after another caught her attention… which was fairly easy to do. It was keeping her attention that was the problem. Adjusting her skirt a little Toni took a deep breath to try again… but both the girl’s attention was grabbed by Toni’s older brother Jordan coming into the room.
“Nother box for you Toni, thought you told these guys you said no?”
The half-mustachioed teddiursa was carrying a large, plainly wrapped box in his arms which he sat down on the bed next to Toni as his little sister groaned “I DID tell them no… the last three times they did this.” she said as Jordan shrugged and turned to leave while Toni stood on her bed, to look at the postmark and to open it up. Wobbling a little due to her thick padding and the squishy mattress Toni didn’t notice Carrie eyeing her. In particular eyeing what she was wearing as she bent over a little and her skirt lift up.
“Toni?” Carrie asked, not bothering to wait for the gothita to answer “Those new diapies you’re wearing?” she said, flipping Toni’s skirt and making the little psychic squeak and blush red. Sure enough they were not Toni’s usual cuddlebutts diapers, these had a blue and white cloud pattern and texture and were a little thicker than cuddlebutts. A cute little vullaby print was on the front as Carrie giggled up a storm and poked the diapers despite Toni blushing and flailing trying to shoo her away “Oooooo~ They’re soft as cotton, soft as cotton!” the bug cooed giggling more before she cast a glance at the box Toni had just opened.
“Wow! There’s more of them! Cush'nies… d’aaaaaaw! They’re as cute as Petie-P’s diapies!”
Carrie gushed as she pulled the various tiny packages of the diaper brand out of the box. Each one had a different bird type on the front to show they were a different type of diaper. A basic version with a swablu print on it, night-time version with hoot-hoot, active doduo with better elasticity, tougher and more durable rough play vullaby, absorbant piplup for heavy wetters, and more. Carrie squealed and giggled at each as she pulled them out while Toni just groaned and put her head in her hands, knowing any moment the bug would start hitting her with machine gun speed questions about this.
Suddenly an idea popped into Toni’s head to try and avoid that embarrassment as she all but shouted “Carrie! Want to see the new toy Petie made me?” which immediately got the yanma’s attention as she was digging around in the box trying to see if she missed anything. “Petie-P makes toy toys?” she asked, eyes slightly starry “Y-yes!” Toni squeaked, only slightly bending the truth “He is really good with machines and made a really cute toy! It’s in the corner recharging!” she said, pointed to the sleeping plush kedleo robot in the corner “Richard!” she called making him whirr and open his eyes before springing to his feet and trotting towards his “mommy” Toni.
He only got halfway there before Carrie intercepted him and the little A.I. let out a squeak of fear as she scooped him up and cuddled him, squealing happily. Toni sighed as she quickly started stuffing the various diaper packages with the others ones out of sight, mentally promising to make it up to Richard afterwards.
*****************
"Why did you not finish off your opponent THIS time? I asked Petie and he was not waving."
"Nope, nope! But Jules was~"
"... seriously?"
"Richard looks cute, really cute with these bows on him don'tcha think?"
"... yes?"
Toni sighed as she watched Carrie playing with Richard. She didn’t know if the little animatronic plushie’s A.I. was smart enough to know ribbons usually weren’t boy accessories… but he did seem to know he didn’t like Carrie as he struggled in the bug types grasp as she tied ribbons to his tail and hair. Toni leaned back a little on her bed, deciding to try and wait out Carrie’s short attention span and get her focus next time it started wandering… she hoped anyway. She was just glad the whole diaper incident from a few days ago seemed to have slipped Carrie’s mind.
"More gifts from your suitors... they could at least have more tact and send you chocolates" Jordan said as he strolled into the room again, another big box in his hands, as Toni groaned loudly and put her face in her hands. Carrie looked up curiously, giving Richard his chance to wiggle free and hide under the bed, as Jordan plopped the box down and left. Giggling Carrie suddenly bounced a little on the bed before flitting over to the box unintentionally causing Toni to bounce and end up flat on her back exposing the swablu and cloud print Cush'nies she was wearing as she squeaked and blushed.
By the time Toni managed to sit back up Carrie had already opened the box up and was eagerly throwing its contents out onto the bed next to Toni. First of course was another pack of Cush'nies, basic with the swablu print… but Toni went wide eyed and red faced at what followed. “Pretty dresses, really pretty dresses!” Carrie cooed as she started to pull out dresses and little girls clothes suited for ages one through four. A white princess gown with pink ruffles, a pastel yellow sundress and sunhat, a baby pink nightgown… and all of them made roughly in Toni’s size with skirts short enough her diapers would be in plain view.
Hopping off her bed Toni tried to waddle towards Carrie to stop her… but was blindsided as one of the thrown dress managed to hoop over her making her squeak and struggle. For a few moments all she could see was pastel yellow before she managed to pull her head free… and realized she’d managed to more or less awkwardly put the dress on in her struggles. She grimaced as she looked down at it. A princess styled dress with short puffy sleeves, matching pastel yellow ribbons decorations, and a skirt too short to ever wear casual. Maybe with tights or pants and a vest on top of it but otherwise…
“Sooooo many cute dresses, adorable dresses!” Carrie cooed snapping Toni out of her thoughts as she looked up to find Carrie had finished unpacking all the dresses from the box already. Before Toni could take even a single step though Carrie was now almost point blank with her, the now open package of diapers in one arm as she rubbed the still folded one she pulled out against her face “Soooooo soft and cuddly~” she cooed before grinning and starting to bombard Toni with questions at speeds that’d made Bullet Seed users envious.
“How well do they fit? How good are the tapes? Are they comfy? Do they make you waddle? Do they absorb well? How much can they hold?”
Toni started to get lost in how quickly the questions were coming as she stuttered “T-they fit okay, t-tapes are durable… um… p-pretty comfy, a little… w-what!? Why would you ask that!?” she squeaked at the last few questions, her face going red with blush. Meanwhile Carrie showed no signs of stopping as the questions kept coming and Toni desperately racked her brain for something, ANYTHING that could distract Carrie when she got this focused on something. Unintentionally her mind wandered back to the dress she wiggled into and before Toni could stop herself she blurted out.
“C-Carrie! Wanna see me try on some of those dresses!?”
Toni barely had time to realize what she’d just done and go pale as Carrie went starry eyed and squealed happily, tugging the little gothita over to bed where all the dresses were. Toni inwardly whimpered as she tried to use the fact Carrie had stopped asking questions to justify what was likely to be several hours of dress-up torment. She glumly watched as Carrie shuffled through the dresses for a moment before giggling and twirling a little, before dramatically holding up her first choice. It was pastel pink with a poofy, tutu like skirt and short, puffy sleeves. A darker pink bow accented the base of the neckline along with a large darker pink sash belt around the middle tied in a large bow in the back.
“This one looks adorable, looks really adorable~ It’ll make you look like a little princess~”
Toni could only groan and put her head in her hands at that.
*****************
"Okay, I know I lost that last match but lets move on to other things..."
"Your fight against Kimmie was fun~"
"Do not mention that name!"
"Kimmie? Why not? I like, really like her~"
"She cuddled me till I had to give up cooing all these stupid demeaning things to me the whole while!!"
"Think she'd let me hang out with her?"
"... I sincerely hope not."
Toni sat glumly in the living room with Carrie, having opted to chat with her there since the past few days of doing it in her room had gotten… frustrating results thanks to that company continuing to send her stuff even after she’d said no. Considering Jordan was out and the Professor was busy in his lab though it looked like she’d be able to talk about their recent match to Carrie without embarrassment… well aside from the usual embarrassment Carrie unintentionally caused anyway. Before she could resume talking there was the sound of somebody knocking on the door in a rather frantic manner, piquing Toni’s curiosity.
Getting up and waddling to the door, Carrie watched to see who it was as, Toni opened it to a strange sight. It was a Breloom guy who looked to be in his early twenties and awkwardly dressed in an outfit that probably was older than he was. It was a poorly fitting black business suit with a bowtie and a tophat finishing the look sitting on his broad, mushroom shaped head and looking completely out of place there. Toni just stared at it in confusion as the guy awkwardly shifted the briefcase he was carrying around and gave her a broad smile as he spoke up.
“A-ah! You must be Marie Antoinette Wendell, it’s very nice to meet you… m-may I call you Marie?”
“……”
“O-oh, no you haven’t met me before if that’s what your wondering.”
“… how does your hat not fall off?”
“… um… a-anyway I’m here r-representing the Cloud Nine company a-about that offer we’ve been sending you things about.”
“I already told you, I am not interested.”
“W-wait!!”
Toni frowned as she tried to shut the door on him but the Breloom had shoved his suitcase in the way. Shoving on the door with all her strength wasn’t doing anything either as the suit wearing mon slowly managed to wiggle his way through easily pushing her back as he stumbled into the living room. “T-there we go.” He said while awkwardly brushing off his suit and adjusting his bowtie, tophat somehow still perched on his head “Now then t-this’ll only t-take a minute of y-you’re time, p-please.” He said, smiling awkwardly as Toni huffed and shut the door before waddling back to the couch and climbing up to sit next to Carrie, who was staring at the stranger curiously.
“N-now then…” the breloom said settling into a chair as he opened his suitcase and began shuffling through it at a frantic pace “I’m W-William, a r-representative of the Cloud Nine c-company… in p-particularly their n-new brand Cush'nies…” he rambled as Carrie piped up “So you’re the ones who make those cute, really cute diapers!” she said making William blink for a moment but nod “Y-yes… i-it’s also why we’ve b-been sending our o-offers to Marie here. A-actually…” he pulled a little projector device out of his briefcase and began fiddling with it “I h-have a brief little p-presentation about it I can show you!” he said happily as the two girls just stared at him in confusion as the breloom began trying to hook the projector device up properly and obviously had little clue what he was doing. Before Toni could tell him they weren’t interested in a presentation the thing activated and began projecting on the wall.
“T-there we go!” he said as he fiddled with something and sound came on as the projected screen showed a building and a recorded voice started playing. “Cloud Nine Inc, founded 50 years ago by Ms. Estelle Cygnus” the voice said as the screen changed to show an altaria lady who looked to be in her 80s or so but still looked quite well and dignified “It is a company specializing in hygiene products, starting from selling simple pads and patches at a small Fortree convenience store to one of the leading hygiene companies in the world selling everything from toothpaste to antifungal talc and even anti-antifungal talc.” The voice said as Toni raised an eyebrow and looked at William before asking.
“Anti-antifungal talc?”
The breloom nodded, smiling slightly and motioning to his mushroom like head “O-oh yes! It h-helps mon like m-me get rid of anti-fungal b-bacteria! V-very helpful!” he said happily… till he noticed the blank stares he was getting from both girls “U-um… m-moving on!” he clicked a button to skip through the rest of the initial company pitch “A-ah! Here we are!” he said as the scene changed to show a package of diapers vaguely similar to the ones Toni had been receiving as the narrating voice continued.
“Cloud Nine’s initial diaper brand were called Cottons and sold decently but were eventually overshadowed by more bigger and broader brands, leading to its closure.” The screen changed to show a large, full package of the sampler packages Toni had been receiving “The new brand Cush'nies though, will prove to be a best seller due to a broad array of types for every conceivable consumer base along with a special mon-themed organizing system for easy recognition and to attract parents to their cuteness.” The voice said as the screen changed again.
This time it showed a little swablu baby modeling one of the swablu print diapers… or at least that’s what she was supposed to be doing. The obviously incomplete ad was ruined because being filmed seemed to upset her as she kept crying. Next was a hoot-hoot toddler modeling the night-time diapers… by running wildly all over the set hopping around erratically and enjoying the panic he seemed to be causing as the camera crew and what were probably baby handlers tried to calm him down. Next the scene showed a Vullaby baby modeling the rough play diapers… which apparently lived up to their name as she furiously pecked at them and struggled to get them off crying unhappily the whole time.
William shifted nervously as this obviously failed commercial attempts kept playing (not that it stopped Carrie from cooing over them) for a few minutes before he shut off the projector and packed it back away in his suitcase. “Due to… um… b-budget cuts w-we’ve had to c-cancel those attempts at c-commercials…” He explained before motioning to Toni “W-which is w-why we’ve b-been making our offer to Marie here.” Toni meanwhile was trying to be polite about this despite obviously being furious and a bit annoyed. The little gothita curtly responded “I already turned down your offer. Please leave.” But before the Breloom could respond Carrie cut in again.
“What offer is that?”
“A-ah, well you see Cloud Nine has r-recently become aware of c-certain rumored marketing p-practices of a c-certain company in this v-very city… a-are you two familiar with Cuddlebutts?” he asked, making Carrie and Toni exchange glances. They knew Cuddlebutts quite well, they also knew Petie & Jules did ads for them playing the babies modeling the diapers. The thought “He couldn’t mean…” drifted through their heads as they nodded and William smiled “W-well this m-may sound silly but r-rumor has it they’re using older kids w-who just LOOK like b-babies to model and d-do ads for their d-diapers and supplies.” He said as the girls exchanged another look that basically said “He does mean” as Toni looked even more annoyed and Carrie struggled not to giggle.
“W-which is why we’d l-like Marie to do ads f-for us!” William said clapping his hands together in front of him “We’re w-willing to offer her h-high pay as well as other p-perks. W-we’re even looking into s-setting up a s-small studio i-in town s-so she won’t have t-to move.” He said, starting to rambled “T-there’s such great p-potential here, l-like that little t-teddiursa you h-hang around with…” he continued rambling and failed to notice Carrie nearly burst out giggling at him not having figured out Petie was in fact the cuddlebutts baby. Toni meanwhile was less than amused.
“No thank you, I refuse to degrade myself like that.”
“P-please Marie.” William said, looking like he was pleading “R-reconsider. I k-know you’re a very bright… um… 10 year old?” he asked, taking a random guess at her age. Toni puffed her cheeks and barely contained her anger at that as she growled “I’m 14.” But William just gave her a disbelieving look and continued on “S-surely you can understand h-how this would benefit both of us. W-we can assure you that n-nobody will be able to recognize y-you in the commercials at all… a-and with the money we’ll save on b-baby handlers and a-all the other little things w-we’ll be able to throw in all kinds of n-nice things…” he started to trail off again, rambling despite neither of the girls really paying attention to him.
“You would make a cute model, a super cute model Toni~” Carrie giggled as she smiled at the gothita who looked like she’d had about all she could stand of this uninvited guest. Taking a deep, calming breath Toni spoke with barely restrained anger “Thank you for the offer but I’m still saying no. Now please leave.” which made William’s face fall as he shuffled through his briefcase for a moment before looking back up and giving a nervous half-smile “Um, do y-you think I c-could talk to your p-parents about this a-actually? I t-think they might be a-able to make t-the d-decision a little better… ” he stuttered which made Toni’s eyes shrink to pinpricks as Carrie reflexively scooted away from her before the fireworks started.
“Are you implying I’m too little to know what I want!?” Toni shouted, jumping off the couch and marching over to the openly stunned breloom “Are you saying I’m too young to understand simple things like money and dignity!? That I’m incapable of making my own decisions!?” she shouted as William stuttered, trying to answer what he didn’t realize were rhetorical questions. This was the straw that broke the Gothita’s back as it were since Toni started yelling even louder “GET OUT AND DON’T COME BACK! I DON’T WANT ANYTHING TO DO WITH YOUR COMPANY AND I’M NOT GOING TO MODEL FOR IT!!” she shouted, pointing at the door as the visibly frightened William scrambled to get his suitcase in order as he scooted away from Toni who’d just thrown the door open and was still pointing for him to leave.
Still yelling at him to get out and to stop bothering her Toni began trying to shove or drag him out the door… which would have been cute since she didn’t have the body mass or strength to budge him except for the fact she was utterly furious. William just stood there at a complete loss and not moving as this went on… till Toni grabbed his briefcase and yanked it out of his arms. William let out a startled yelp as Toni hurled it clean out the open door and shouted “I SAID GET OUT!!!” as the breloom chased after it, tophat finally tumbling off his head as he went. Standing right next to the door as he went out Toni kicked the tophat out after him before slamming it shut in his wake and standing in front of the shut door panting and fuming as she struggled to calm down.
Carrie returned from the kitchen, where she’d ducked while Toni was letting William have it, with a big glass of cold water for Toni. Taking and slowly drinking the whole glass down Toni gave a soft sigh, obviously calmer than before. “You okay?” Carrie asked gently as Toni sighed and nodded “Yes… if he doesn’t come back and bother me again anyway…” she muttered. Carrie scooped the little psychic up in a reassuring hug and cuddled her for a moment… before giggling “You WOULD look really cute modeling those diapers you know~” she said patting Toni’s padded bottom and making the gothita groan.
“Don’t you start in on me too…”
“Sorry, sorry~”
The End... For Now.

PCA – A “Cushie” Deal"Carrie? Why did you not hit your opponent with Bug Buzz? He was about to faint?"
“Pretty, pretty pony~”
"Carrie, pay attention!"
"Huh? Oh! Cause I saw Petie-P cheering in the audiance and he looked sooooo cute, looked so cute I had to wave back!"
"... that is why you suddenly stopped in mid air and lost the match!?"
"Brushie brushie the pony's tail~"
"Carrie!"
Toni sighed, she should have realized trying to talk to Carrie about their last match while at her house was a bad idea. The diapered gothita sat on her bed as she watched her yanma friend zipping around happily playing with the toys and dolls Toni had in her room as one after another caught her attention… which was fairly easy to do. It was keeping her attention that was the problem. Adjusting her skirt a little Toni took a deep breath to try again… but both the girl’s attention was grabbed by Toni’s older brother Jordan coming into the room.
“Nother box for you Toni, thought you told these guys you said no?”
The half-mustachioed teddiursa was carrying a large, plainly wrapped box in his arms which he sat down on the bed next to Toni as his little sister groaned “I DID tell them no… the last three times they did this.” she said as Jordan shrugged and turned to leave while Toni stood on her bed, to look at the postmark and to open it up. Wobbling a little due to her thick padding and the squishy mattress Toni didn’t notice Carrie eyeing her. In particular eyeing what she was wearing as she bent over a little and her skirt lift up.
“Toni?” Carrie asked, not bothering to wait for the gothita to answer “Those new diapies you’re wearing?” she said, flipping Toni’s skirt and making the little psychic squeak and blush red. Sure enough they were not Toni’s usual cuddlebutts diapers, these had a blue and white cloud pattern and texture and were a little thicker than cuddlebutts. A cute little vullaby print was on the front as Carrie giggled up a storm and poked the diapers despite Toni blushing and flailing trying to shoo her away “Oooooo~ They’re soft as cotton, soft as cotton!” the bug cooed giggling more before she cast a glance at the box Toni had just opened.
“Wow! There’s more of them! Cush'nies… d’aaaaaaw! They’re as cute as Petie-P’s diapies!”
Carrie gushed as she pulled the various tiny packages of the diaper brand out of the box. Each one had a different bird type on the front to show they were a different type of diaper. A basic version with a swablu print on it, night-time version with hoot-hoot, active doduo with better elasticity, tougher and more durable rough play vullaby, absorbant piplup for heavy wetters, and more. Carrie squealed and giggled at each as she pulled them out while Toni just groaned and put her head in her hands, knowing any moment the bug would start hitting her with machine gun speed questions about this.
Suddenly an idea popped into Toni’s head to try and avoid that embarrassment as she all but shouted “Carrie! Want to see the new toy Petie made me?” which immediately got the yanma’s attention as she was digging around in the box trying to see if she missed anything. “Petie-P makes toy toys?” she asked, eyes slightly starry “Y-yes!” Toni squeaked, only slightly bending the truth “He is really good with machines and made a really cute toy! It’s in the corner recharging!” she said, pointed to the sleeping plush kedleo robot in the corner “Richard!” she called making him whirr and open his eyes before springing to his feet and trotting towards his “mommy” Toni.
He only got halfway there before Carrie intercepted him and the little A.I. let out a squeak of fear as she scooped him up and cuddled him, squealing happily. Toni sighed as she quickly started stuffing the various diaper packages with the others ones out of sight, mentally promising to make it up to Richard afterwards.
*****************
"Why did you not finish off your opponent THIS time? I asked Petie and he was not waving."
"Nope, nope! But Jules was~"
"... seriously?"
"Richard looks cute, really cute with these bows on him don'tcha think?"
"... yes?"
Toni sighed as she watched Carrie playing with Richard. She didn’t know if the little animatronic plushie’s A.I. was smart enough to know ribbons usually weren’t boy accessories… but he did seem to know he didn’t like Carrie as he struggled in the bug types grasp as she tied ribbons to his tail and hair. Toni leaned back a little on her bed, deciding to try and wait out Carrie’s short attention span and get her focus next time it started wandering… she hoped anyway. She was just glad the whole diaper incident from a few days ago seemed to have slipped Carrie’s mind.
"More gifts from your suitors... they could at least have more tact and send you chocolates" Jordan said as he strolled into the room again, another big box in his hands, as Toni groaned loudly and put her face in her hands. Carrie looked up curiously, giving Richard his chance to wiggle free and hide under the bed, as Jordan plopped the box down and left. Giggling Carrie suddenly bounced a little on the bed before flitting over to the box unintentionally causing Toni to bounce and end up flat on her back exposing the swablu and cloud print Cush'nies she was wearing as she squeaked and blushed.
By the time Toni managed to sit back up Carrie had already opened the box up and was eagerly throwing its contents out onto the bed next to Toni. First of course was another pack of Cush'nies, basic with the swablu print… but Toni went wide eyed and red faced at what followed. “Pretty dresses, really pretty dresses!” Carrie cooed as she started to pull out dresses and little girls clothes suited for ages one through four. A white princess gown with pink ruffles, a pastel yellow sundress and sunhat, a baby pink nightgown… and all of them made roughly in Toni’s size with skirts short enough her diapers would be in plain view.
Hopping off her bed Toni tried to waddle towards Carrie to stop her… but was blindsided as one of the thrown dress managed to hoop over her making her squeak and struggle. For a few moments all she could see was pastel yellow before she managed to pull her head free… and realized she’d managed to more or less awkwardly put the dress on in her struggles. She grimaced as she looked down at it. A princess styled dress with short puffy sleeves, matching pastel yellow ribbons decorations, and a skirt too short to ever wear casual. Maybe with tights or pants and a vest on top of it but otherwise…
“Sooooo many cute dresses, adorable dresses!” Carrie cooed snapping Toni out of her thoughts as she looked up to find Carrie had finished unpacking all the dresses from the box already. Before Toni could take even a single step though Carrie was now almost point blank with her, the now open package of diapers in one arm as she rubbed the still folded one she pulled out against her face “Soooooo soft and cuddly~” she cooed before grinning and starting to bombard Toni with questions at speeds that’d made Bullet Seed users envious.
“How well do they fit? How good are the tapes? Are they comfy? Do they make you waddle? Do they absorb well? How much can they hold?”
Toni started to get lost in how quickly the questions were coming as she stuttered “T-they fit okay, t-tapes are durable… um… p-pretty comfy, a little… w-what!? Why would you ask that!?” she squeaked at the last few questions, her face going red with blush. Meanwhile Carrie showed no signs of stopping as the questions kept coming and Toni desperately racked her brain for something, ANYTHING that could distract Carrie when she got this focused on something. Unintentionally her mind wandered back to the dress she wiggled into and before Toni could stop herself she blurted out.
“C-Carrie! Wanna see me try on some of those dresses!?”
Toni barely had time to realize what she’d just done and go pale as Carrie went starry eyed and squealed happily, tugging the little gothita over to bed where all the dresses were. Toni inwardly whimpered as she tried to use the fact Carrie had stopped asking questions to justify what was likely to be several hours of dress-up torment. She glumly watched as Carrie shuffled through the dresses for a moment before giggling and twirling a little, before dramatically holding up her first choice. It was pastel pink with a poofy, tutu like skirt and short, puffy sleeves. A darker pink bow accented the base of the neckline along with a large darker pink sash belt around the middle tied in a large bow in the back.
“This one looks adorable, looks really adorable~ It’ll make you look like a little princess~”
Toni could only groan and put her head in her hands at that.
*****************
"Okay, I know I lost that last match but lets move on to other things..."
"Your fight against Kimmie was fun~"
"Do not mention that name!"
"Kimmie? Why not? I like, really like her~"
"She cuddled me till I had to give up cooing all these stupid demeaning things to me the whole while!!"
"Think she'd let me hang out with her?"
"... I sincerely hope not."
Toni sat glumly in the living room with Carrie, having opted to chat with her there since the past few days of doing it in her room had gotten… frustrating results thanks to that company continuing to send her stuff even after she’d said no. Considering Jordan was out and the Professor was busy in his lab though it looked like she’d be able to talk about their recent match to Carrie without embarrassment… well aside from the usual embarrassment Carrie unintentionally caused anyway. Before she could resume talking there was the sound of somebody knocking on the door in a rather frantic manner, piquing Toni’s curiosity.
Getting up and waddling to the door, Carrie watched to see who it was as, Toni opened it to a strange sight. It was a Breloom guy who looked to be in his early twenties and awkwardly dressed in an outfit that probably was older than he was. It was a poorly fitting black business suit with a bowtie and a tophat finishing the look sitting on his broad, mushroom shaped head and looking completely out of place there. Toni just stared at it in confusion as the guy awkwardly shifted the briefcase he was carrying around and gave her a broad smile as he spoke up.
“A-ah! You must be Marie Antoinette Wendell, it’s very nice to meet you… m-may I call you Marie?”
“……”
“O-oh, no you haven’t met me before if that’s what your wondering.”
“… how does your hat not fall off?”
“… um… a-anyway I’m here r-representing the Cloud Nine company a-about that offer we’ve been sending you things about.”
“I already told you, I am not interested.”
“W-wait!!”
Toni frowned as she tried to shut the door on him but the Breloom had shoved his suitcase in the way. Shoving on the door with all her strength wasn’t doing anything either as the suit wearing mon slowly managed to wiggle his way through easily pushing her back as he stumbled into the living room. “T-there we go.” He said while awkwardly brushing off his suit and adjusting his bowtie, tophat somehow still perched on his head “Now then t-this’ll only t-take a minute of y-you’re time, p-please.” He said, smiling awkwardly as Toni huffed and shut the door before waddling back to the couch and climbing up to sit next to Carrie, who was staring at the stranger curiously.
“N-now then…” the breloom said settling into a chair as he opened his suitcase and began shuffling through it at a frantic pace “I’m W-William, a r-representative of the Cloud Nine c-company… in p-particularly their n-new brand Cush'nies…” he rambled as Carrie piped up “So you’re the ones who make those cute, really cute diapers!” she said making William blink for a moment but nod “Y-yes… i-it’s also why we’ve b-been sending our o-offers to Marie here. A-actually…” he pulled a little projector device out of his briefcase and began fiddling with it “I h-have a brief little p-presentation about it I can show you!” he said happily as the two girls just stared at him in confusion as the breloom began trying to hook the projector device up properly and obviously had little clue what he was doing. Before Toni could tell him they weren’t interested in a presentation the thing activated and began projecting on the wall.
“T-there we go!” he said as he fiddled with something and sound came on as the projected screen showed a building and a recorded voice started playing. “Cloud Nine Inc, founded 50 years ago by Ms. Estelle Cygnus” the voice said as the screen changed to show an altaria lady who looked to be in her 80s or so but still looked quite well and dignified “It is a company specializing in hygiene products, starting from selling simple pads and patches at a small Fortree convenience store to one of the leading hygiene companies in the world selling everything from toothpaste to antifungal talc and even anti-antifungal talc.” The voice said as Toni raised an eyebrow and looked at William before asking.
“Anti-antifungal talc?”
The breloom nodded, smiling slightly and motioning to his mushroom like head “O-oh yes! It h-helps mon like m-me get rid of anti-fungal b-bacteria! V-very helpful!” he said happily… till he noticed the blank stares he was getting from both girls “U-um… m-moving on!” he clicked a button to skip through the rest of the initial company pitch “A-ah! Here we are!” he said as the scene changed to show a package of diapers vaguely similar to the ones Toni had been receiving as the narrating voice continued.
“Cloud Nine’s initial diaper brand were called Cottons and sold decently but were eventually overshadowed by more bigger and broader brands, leading to its closure.” The screen changed to show a large, full package of the sampler packages Toni had been receiving “The new brand Cush'nies though, will prove to be a best seller due to a broad array of types for every conceivable consumer base along with a special mon-themed organizing system for easy recognition and to attract parents to their cuteness.” The voice said as the screen changed again.
This time it showed a little swablu baby modeling one of the swablu print diapers… or at least that’s what she was supposed to be doing. The obviously incomplete ad was ruined because being filmed seemed to upset her as she kept crying. Next was a hoot-hoot toddler modeling the night-time diapers… by running wildly all over the set hopping around erratically and enjoying the panic he seemed to be causing as the camera crew and what were probably baby handlers tried to calm him down. Next the scene showed a Vullaby baby modeling the rough play diapers… which apparently lived up to their name as she furiously pecked at them and struggled to get them off crying unhappily the whole time.
William shifted nervously as this obviously failed commercial attempts kept playing (not that it stopped Carrie from cooing over them) for a few minutes before he shut off the projector and packed it back away in his suitcase. “Due to… um… b-budget cuts w-we’ve had to c-cancel those attempts at c-commercials…” He explained before motioning to Toni “W-which is w-why we’ve b-been making our offer to Marie here.” Toni meanwhile was trying to be polite about this despite obviously being furious and a bit annoyed. The little gothita curtly responded “I already turned down your offer. Please leave.” But before the Breloom could respond Carrie cut in again.
“What offer is that?”
“A-ah, well you see Cloud Nine has r-recently become aware of c-certain rumored marketing p-practices of a c-certain company in this v-very city… a-are you two familiar with Cuddlebutts?” he asked, making Carrie and Toni exchange glances. They knew Cuddlebutts quite well, they also knew Petie & Jules did ads for them playing the babies modeling the diapers. The thought “He couldn’t mean…” drifted through their heads as they nodded and William smiled “W-well this m-may sound silly but r-rumor has it they’re using older kids w-who just LOOK like b-babies to model and d-do ads for their d-diapers and supplies.” He said as the girls exchanged another look that basically said “He does mean” as Toni looked even more annoyed and Carrie struggled not to giggle.
“W-which is why we’d l-like Marie to do ads f-for us!” William said clapping his hands together in front of him “We’re w-willing to offer her h-high pay as well as other p-perks. W-we’re even looking into s-setting up a s-small studio i-in town s-so she won’t have t-to move.” He said, starting to rambled “T-there’s such great p-potential here, l-like that little t-teddiursa you h-hang around with…” he continued rambling and failed to notice Carrie nearly burst out giggling at him not having figured out Petie was in fact the cuddlebutts baby. Toni meanwhile was less than amused.
“No thank you, I refuse to degrade myself like that.”
“P-please Marie.” William said, looking like he was pleading “R-reconsider. I k-know you’re a very bright… um… 10 year old?” he asked, taking a random guess at her age. Toni puffed her cheeks and barely contained her anger at that as she growled “I’m 14.” But William just gave her a disbelieving look and continued on “S-surely you can understand h-how this would benefit both of us. W-we can assure you that n-nobody will be able to recognize y-you in the commercials at all… a-and with the money we’ll save on b-baby handlers and a-all the other little things w-we’ll be able to throw in all kinds of n-nice things…” he started to trail off again, rambling despite neither of the girls really paying attention to him.
“You would make a cute model, a super cute model Toni~” Carrie giggled as she smiled at the gothita who looked like she’d had about all she could stand of this uninvited guest. Taking a deep, calming breath Toni spoke with barely restrained anger “Thank you for the offer but I’m still saying no. Now please leave.” which made William’s face fall as he shuffled through his briefcase for a moment before looking back up and giving a nervous half-smile “Um, do y-you think I c-could talk to your p-parents about this a-actually? I t-think they might be a-able to make t-the d-decision a little better… ” he stuttered which made Toni’s eyes shrink to pinpricks as Carrie reflexively scooted away from her before the fireworks started.
“Are you implying I’m too little to know what I want!?” Toni shouted, jumping off the couch and marching over to the openly stunned breloom “Are you saying I’m too young to understand simple things like money and dignity!? That I’m incapable of making my own decisions!?” she shouted as William stuttered, trying to answer what he didn’t realize were rhetorical questions. This was the straw that broke the Gothita’s back as it were since Toni started yelling even louder “GET OUT AND DON’T COME BACK! I DON’T WANT ANYTHING TO DO WITH YOUR COMPANY AND I’M NOT GOING TO MODEL FOR IT!!” she shouted, pointing at the door as the visibly frightened William scrambled to get his suitcase in order as he scooted away from Toni who’d just thrown the door open and was still pointing for him to leave.
Still yelling at him to get out and to stop bothering her Toni began trying to shove or drag him out the door… which would have been cute since she didn’t have the body mass or strength to budge him except for the fact she was utterly furious. William just stood there at a complete loss and not moving as this went on… till Toni grabbed his briefcase and yanked it out of his arms. William let out a startled yelp as Toni hurled it clean out the open door and shouted “I SAID GET OUT!!!” as the breloom chased after it, tophat finally tumbling off his head as he went. Standing right next to the door as he went out Toni kicked the tophat out after him before slamming it shut in his wake and standing in front of the shut door panting and fuming as she struggled to calm down.
Carrie returned from the kitchen, where she’d ducked while Toni was letting William have it, with a big glass of cold water for Toni. Taking and slowly drinking the whole glass down Toni gave a soft sigh, obviously calmer than before. “You okay?” Carrie asked gently as Toni sighed and nodded “Yes… if he doesn’t come back and bother me again anyway…” she muttered. Carrie scooped the little psychic up in a reassuring hug and cuddled her for a moment… before giggling “You WOULD look really cute modeling those diapers you know~” she said patting Toni’s padded bottom and making the gothita groan.
“Don’t you start in on me too…”
“Sorry, sorry~”

Like I told you before, the ad outtakes were awesomely cute and natural. Seems also their casting skills are rather poor if they picked a vullaby that was overly attached to her skull diaper.

Toni: I have been saying no from day 1. You have no idea of how persistent they can be.
