Emma huffed as her freedom from the straight jacket was almost immediately followed by Carmen tying her hands and feet to the changing table, though the end result of this would be the she would be out of the messy diaper she was in made in more bearable. Additionally before this her hands were slipped into thick locking mittens, which prevented her hands from closing or being effective in general. Also being removed from her straight jacket had left her otherwise nude, a fact which everyone else had, thankfully, ignored, but one which bothered Emma.
"I know," Carmen apologized reading the emotion on Emma's face. "This will just take a second, and we'll get you into a little onesie." Emma sighed debating on if she preferred nudity or not. She couldn't help but notice that Lucy, while similarly restrained to her changing table, had some freedom of movement, whereas her restraints were tight and offered little resistance to her wiggles. That's if she was wiggling, Emma elected to remain still hoping to get it over as fast as possible. Thankfully Carmen did work fast and cleaned Emma quickly before getting a new diaper under her.
This one was solid pink throughout, decorated with white stars, and with the landing strip plastered with chibi looking princesses wearing the very diaper they were on. The diaper was taped snugly on to Emma and she was freed from the changing table. Lucy was still giggling and wiggling through her change with Elizabeth cooing at her all the while. Emma plodded along behind Carmen, she couldn't help but swing her newly freed arms.
"Ok let's find something to cover you up," Carmen said looking through the childish outfits in the nursery's closet. Emma could see several onesies, dresses, and sleepers, but nothing that looked remotely mature.
"Are they all like that?" Emma asked though she knew the answer.
"Yes they are," Carmen said with a huff. Emma didn't comment after that. "Ah this will look adorable on you."
Emma revealed a large white onesie with pink trim. It was decorated with small cartoon fish of different varieties and colors.
"Where do you even find this stuff?" Emma asked sarcastically. Carmen paused trying to calculate a correct response.
"The internet," Carmen said quickly. Emma couldn't help but feel that Carmen was being unusually cagey about that question and gave her a strange look, one which Carmen ignored.
"Arms up," Carmen demanded with a smile. Emma huffed and obeyed. Suddenly her vision was blocked and she was surrounded in an admittedly comfy shell as the onesie was brought over her head. Emma had a brief moment to look at herself in the mirror while Carmen was busy snapping up the crotch buttons on the onesie. She looked ridiculous, the childish onesie allowed hints of the equally childish diaper to be seen through the leg holes, and the whole thing was topped off when Carmen attached a pink pacifier to it with a similar colored pacifier clip.
Emma looked at Carmen as she brushed her hair neatly back into place where she had messed it up by running the fabric of the onesie over her head.
"Why don't you want to tell me where you got these things?" Emma asked plainly, trying her best to not have any hostility in her voice. Carmen smiled and popped Emma's pacifier in her mouth.
"Shush don't ask questions baby," Emma rolled her eyes and quietly suckled the pacifier. Playing the part had gotten her this far so she thought it best to keep it up. Though she was genuinely curious why this was a sticking point for Carmen she didn't feel like it was worth pressing. "Last thing," Carmen said quickly enveloping Emma in a leather chest harness. "This will be a little easier on you than your collar I think."
The harness was pink and other than a large circle in the front in the middle of hers chest was mostly just straps. Two straps ran over both of her shoulders and one around her waist meeting at the large circle in the front and behind her at the part of her back she couldn't reliably reach especially with the mittens on her hands. The whole contraption was secured tight on her where Emma couldn't remove it. There was a d-ring on the front where the circle was, on either died below Emma's arm pits, and in the back. Plenty of places to attach a lead or other binding device. Emma pouted, not happy at the new development but still it probably was more comfortable to be tugged along in this fashion rather than by her neck.
"Sissy you look so cute," Lucy said surprising Emma with a hug.
"Aaa you scared me," Emma shriek a little dropping her pacifier out. She hugged Lucy back giggling. Emma had to admit that Lucy's antics actually made her happy despite her circumstances.
"Cuz I'm scary rawr," Lucy said giggling.
"Yeah real terrifying," Emma said ruffling Lucy's hair.
"Glad you two are getting along," Elizabeth said hugging Emma and Lucy. Emma attempted to squirm away from Elizabeth to little avail. "Why don't you two watch a movie while we work on dinner?"
"Movie!" Lucy yelled happily sprinting out of the room.
"No running Lucy!" Carmen shouted after her. Elizabeth gently pushed Emma along into the living room after Lucy. Lucy was happily bouncing in front of the play pen.
"Ok ok," Carmen said mildly annoyed as she opened the play pen. Lucy hurried inside and snuggled into the blanket like bottom. Emma less enthusiastically joined her inside where she was immediately hugged. Elizabeth secured the playpen closed again while Carmen put a movie in what looked like a video game console and played it.
"All right you two be good," Carmen said sternly. "We'll be in the kitchen so we can hear it if you two act up."
"Yes mommy," Lucy said quickly.
"Y-yes mommy," Emma hesitantly followed. This garnered a smile from Carmen as she left into the kitchen.
Emma was surprised that the movie they chose was actually a pretty serious action movie. It featured a grizzled old secret service officer that just happened to be in a bank while it was being robbed by a heist crew. It was action packed, plenty tense, definitely not something Emma imagined being played for children, not that she was complaining. And if you looked at Lucy staring intently at the screen you would think they were watching mindless cartoons as she suckled her pacifier while clinging to Emma.
"Do they normally let us watch movies like this?" Emma questioned.
"mhmmm," Lucy answered distracted by the movie.
"Just doesn't seem very kid friendly."
"Well yeah. We'd be bored out of our minds if we just watched cartoons all day."
"That's what I was expecting."
"Silly, mommy and momma love us, they wouldn't bore us on purpose." Emma sighed and snuggled up with Lucy a little more. She just couldn't argue with Lucy like this.
The movie was just coming to the end of the first act, with the first hostage being killed by one of the heist crews set to the main character screaming in response when Carmen emerged from the kitchen.
"Ok little bugs dinner's ready," Carmen said happily as she opened the play pen. "Chicken nuggets and French fries."
"Yay my favorite," Lucy said happily skipping off to the dining room where her high chair was, Emma following less enthusiastically with Carmen following up behind her. Emma arrived right when Elizabeth was locking the tray on Lucy's high chair and she was promptly picked up by Elizabeth and similarly secured in while Carmen brought in two prepared plates and set them on the trays. Seeing as her hands were tied up uselessly in her mittens Emma didn't attempt to feed herself assuming correctly that Carmen would feed her. She opened her mouth as Carmen brought a chicken nugget to her mouth.
"You are being so good this time," Caremn smiled.
"That's because this is actual food," Emma said while chewing.
"Don't talk with your mouth full," Carmen scolded as she brought up another bite. "It's not all that bad. We know you two are big girls, in size anyway," there was a pause as she brought another bite which Emma ate. "We know you need big girl things sometimes, but that doesn't stop you from being our little girls." Emma gave a quizzical look as she ate. She didn't know how much she believed Carmen, though Lucy seemed to be taking this all in stride which was evidence to it being a common occurrence. She was pretty sure they were using this to butter her up and make her comply more. Emma didn't know how much this was working she struggled as she couldn't help but passively eat the food offered to her through all of Carmen's cooing.
"You girls want to finish your movie while we give you your bottles?" Elizabeth offered. Of course Lucy was enthusiastic about her endorsement of the idea and Emma could admit that she was interested to see how the movie would end.
This time Emma hurried with Lucy to the couch giggling with her. For some reason Emma didn't seem to care at how she was acting. She was eager to see the end of the movie and spend more time with Lucy. Carmen and Elizabeth joined them on the couch and they both quickly got comfy in a feeding position with Carmen tending to Emma and Elizabeth doing the same for Lucy. Carmen and Elizabeth sat pretty close together so Emma and Lucy were gently touching each other with their feet as Carmen and Elizabeth fed them their bottles of milk. With the movie going and Lucy's comfort Emma lost herself a little and absent mindedly and instinctively suckled while she was entranced with movie.
Once the bottles were emptied Carmen and Elizabeth silently put pacifiers in their charges and placed them in between the two of them, and finally cover up the four of them in one blanket. Lucy and Emma curled up and laid on top of each other suckling their pacifiers as the movie continued, and Carmen and Elizabeth keeping them soothed with gentle back rubs and small touches. No one there, Emma especially, knew whether or not Emma was just acting, but despite that fact Carmen and Elizabeth were ecstatic that Emma seemed to have sunk to a head space similar to Lucy's, as they both conversed in lisped paci talk about the plot of the movie.
AUTHORS NOTE: Here's another chapter for you guys. This marks the first in the next stage of the plot. Expect to see Emma comply more and more, and get more and more into head space. The big question of these next few chapters is whether or not she's faking it or Carmen and Elizabeth or getting through to her like they got through to Lucy. Expect a lot more cute "family" moments ahead. As always hope you enjoy.
