Seth awoke to his alarm clock. He fumbled his hand it it’s direction,still groggy and trying to wake up. He stood up and went to the bathroom to prepare for the day.
He looked through his phone with one hand while he brushed his teeth with the other,checking emails and his messages. As he finished brushing,the calendar function chimed with a reminder,that it was the 1st of July. Seth spat out the mouthful of water and toothpaste and grinned. He would have to prepare soon. He took a quick shower,got dressed,and then made his way to the hallway of his apartment.
Seth flicked a switch outside his hallway closet door,causing dim light to cascade from the small gaps in the door. He gripped the handle and slowly and quietly opened the door.Within was a small and sparse saferoom,with an automatic food and water bowl as well as a self cleaning litterbox. Within the box was a gray earthie stallion with a black mane and tail. Filthy from laying in his own waste he stirred slightly as Seth came in.
"Hey buddy"said Seth,feigning affection for the fluffy.
"…Wan Die…"Was the only response from the despondent creature as it barely raised it’s head from the litterbox.
“Come on Ash,don’t be like that”. Seth shook his head at the pitiable creature. They had been here before,countless times.Ash had entered the “Wan Die” loop nearly four years ago after a rather fun and eventful Fourth of July celebration.
Depite what Seth had heard about the loop being permanent,he had relative success with drawing Ash out of the loop,albeit with temporary and varied results. He had found that extreme stress and shock would pull him from the loop but Ash was never quite himself afterwards and his behavior would always be erratic and unpredictable. From crying and cheeping like a foal for days to trying to hit his head against the wall over and over,after which Seth had to pad the saferoom walls. His personal favorite was the time he seemed almost normal,talking and eating like before until Ash started screaming,his eyes suddenly bloodshot and bulging as though the trama was fresh and new. He did this for days on and off with his throat becoming torn and hoarse from the screaming. It was so bad that near the end,he just stared,mouth agape,silently screaming.It had made Seth shudder with joy.
Sadly,each time he had pulled Ash from the loop,he would slowly drift back. From a couple of days to nearly a week one time,Ash would eventually become sullen and lethargic,with the poor stallion eventually muttering"…Wan Die…" and entering the loop yet again.
“I know you can’t understand me just yet…” Said Seth as he pulled the stallion out of the litterbox,placing him in front of the food and water bowl. “…but I wanted to tell you that your favorite day is coming up” .Seth watched as the stallion slumped face first into the food dish,eventually eating a few pieces of kibble.Ash clearly wanted to die but the room was fluffy proofed,with even the water dish being too shallow to drown himself in. He had tried to starve himself a few times but Seth had simply watered down some kibble and force fed the creature. “I’ll find something special to pull you out of it tomorrow buddy,don’t you worry” .Seth patted Ash on his head and swore he felt him shudder.
Seth made himself some breakfast and checked his phone. Some small work stuff that might be a pain in the ass on the fifth. Luckily,Seth always requested his vacation time for around the fourth and that would be a problem for later Seth. After finishing his eggs and toast,he got up and went to visit his other fluffy.
Seth walked into the back room of his apartment and opened the door. The room was quite large as it was the first saferoom and originally where he kept all his fluffies. The back part of the room still had the fluffy proof fencing that was soft yet durable enough to hold back even the most tenacious stallion or mare. The tv that was mounted onto the opposite wall was on and blaring FluffTV,specifically a program called “Pillowfluffs”. While the show was originally intended to be a comfort to pillowed fluffies and to make them happier and more complacent,it had mostly has the opposite effect,as it constantly reminded pillowfluffs that they no longer had leggies and would never run and play again.
Within the fluff proofed enclosure was another auto feeder and a large bed with an attached litterbox behind it. In the bed was a large pillowed mare. Her fur was a neon yellow and her mane and tail were white with occasional strands of multi-colored tufts.
The fluffy had been quietly sobbing with it’s little muffled huu huu-s and hadn’t noticed her daddy entering the room.
“Well hi there my little Starburst. How are you today?” Seth said abruptly,trying his best not to laugh at the creatures misery.
"EEEEEP!!!"Screamed Starburst,clearly startled by the sudden appearance of her daddy. She knew that he would always appear after bright time happened,but the meanie tv was saying things that gave her the worst heart hurties and she got distracted."Huu…Huu…Daddeh scawe Stawbuwst.Pwease gib Stawbuwst wuv an’ huggies. Nu mean tu make ba’ poopies."She had voided her bowels and often forgot that the litterbox was right behind her bed.
Seth went out of his way to only give Starburst the bare minimum of affection.She had already been pillowed before he adopted her and was love starved all her life.By occasionally giving her a little attention,he could easily manipulate her into forgetting and forgiving even the most terrible of abuse.Indeed after the Fourth of July that had broken Ash,Starburst had instead internalized the trauma,blaming herself.Now,if she heard her daddy even sound slightly upset,she would bawl her eyes out,apologizing and begging him to not abandon her.
“Aww come here girl” Seth said sweetly as he grabbed Starburst roughly by her scruff and lifted her up. "Ba’ upsies…"Starburst yelped as she was put in front of her food and water bowl. She lightly cried from the pain in her neck as she tried to move her head close enough to eat.
“Daddeh…nummies nu cwose enuf”
“Now Starburst,don’t be lazy. I already got you out of bed and put you close enough. You can do it on your own.”
Seth stifled a laugh as Starburst waddled and rocked for several minutes. She cried as her teats were dragged against the floor a few inches.Finally,she made it just close enough and began to eat.
“Good girl” Seth said with feigned tenderness. He reached down and began to lightly pet Starburst’s side,occasionally working a hand to her stumps. He hated how the raw skin felt but he knew how upset it made Starburst to be touched there. Most pillowfluffs would be quite vocal about not wanting to be touched on their stumps,but Starburst would simply shudder and start to cry. Seth always made sure to alternate just enough between petting her fur and stumps,as he adored how quickly she would perk up at his touch,only to suddenly shake and quietly sob. She would then go from quietly sullen to an affectionate melancholy as she desperately nuzzled and cuddled against his hand. This would go on until she finished her breakfast and had some water.
“Ok sweety,back to your bed.” Seth scooped her up,causing her to coo and curl up against his hands.He smirked as he squeezed her,lightly at first but then just slightly too hard before putting her down on the bed. He held back a laugh as he saw Starburst quietly wheezing and whimpering,not daring to upset her daddy.
“I’ll be back for your dinner sweety” Seth walked out as he heard her begin sobbing again.
Seth got in his car and began the drive to Fluff-Mart. The closest one was nearly an hour drive from his apartment but thankfully he didn’t have to go there too often. He bought kibble and litter in bulk and if he needed fluffies,he would simply set traps for ferals. However,he always needed fluffies for the Fourth of July,specifically foals so he would be making some very special purchases today.
As Seth got a shopping cart and entered the store he nearly had to avert his eyes. He loathed the aesthetic of the Fluff-Mart,as it always reminded him of a cross between a Costco and a neon fever dream. He could instantly hear the babyish prattling throughout the store,the numerous fluffies asking for houses and new mammas and daddies. As he wandered by an enclosure,he saw a purple mare,no older than one year old with a dark green mane. She had lighter colored fluff around the left side of her face as she was missing an eye.
"Hewwo nice mistuh!Pwease be nyu daddeh?"She leaned up against the fence,her green tail wagging furiously. “Cy’cwops am gud fwuffie an’gib nyu daddeh wots uf huggies an’ wuv.”
Seth looked at a nearby whiteboard with the names of the fluffies and saw that Cyclops only had two more days before she was due for the incinerator. It also noted that she had given birth nearly six days ago,to three foals.
“Hi girl” Seth said sweetly,leaning down to pet her under her chin. She cooed and nuzzled against him.
"Where are your babies?"Seth asked as he continued the affectionate petting.
“Huu huh…meanie nu mummah hooman take babbehs fwom Cy’cwops…” She started sobbing,falling onto her hindquarters into a sitting position. “Twy teww hew dat babbehs nee’ miwkies an’ am fo’ huggies an’ wuv.”
“You poor thing…” Seth said trying to feign empathy. “…babies need their mamma. I’ll go talk to this meanie and get your babies back” Seth put his hand on her and gave her head a light scratch.
"Weawwy!?Nice mistuh bwing Cy’cwops babbehs!?Fank yuu!Fank yuu nices’ mistuh!"She lit up and stopped crying immediately.She put her front hooves above her head,making the upsies pose.
Seth rolled his eyes."No,no sweety.You have to stay here Cyclops.I won’t be able to carry you and all your babies at once…"Seth slowly stepped to the side obscuring his shopping cart from Cyclops’ sight.
“Cy’cwops wawksies wif mistuh.Cy’cwops wiww cawwy babbehs…”
Seth leaned back down and Cyclops remained in the upsies pose,flailing her front hooves happily.He grinned and flicked her on the snout.
"*SCREEEEEE!!!"Cyclops fell backwards and rolled a few inches.She got back up sobbing,her nose dripping a small bit of blood."*Huu… *huu…Wai mistuh gib Cy’cwops smewe place huwties?Huwties ba’ fo’fwuffies."She saw the blood and began to cry even harder.
“I told you I’d go alone Cyclops.You should never question someone who might be your daddy.Now I have half a mind to not take you and your babies home with me…”
"NUUUUUUUUU!!!"Cyclops ran back to the fence,her top hoofs holding her up against it,tapping frantically.She cried and shook violently."Pwease be nyu daddeh fo’ Cy’cwops an’ babbehs!Cy’cwops sowwy.Wisten tu nyu daddeh,pwomise!"Her outburst had gained the attention of several other people,including some of the Fluff-Mart employees.A man in a light blue pastel jumpsuit with the Fluff-Mart logo came up to Seth.“Is this fluffy bothering you?They know damn well they aren’t supposed to demand things from the customers.”
Seth laughed."Yeah,she was getting pretty insistent,asking for a home and sketties."Cyclops couldn’t hear the lie as she had gone into full sobbing and screaming.Seth shook his head.“It’s a damn shame.If she hadn’t been such a bitch I might have given her a good home…”
The employee sighed.He took out a short stick with a loop of plastic chord at the end."Alright then,someone’s getting the sorrybox."He swung the stick,wrapping the chord around Cyclops’ neck.In one obviously well rehearsed move,he scooped her up with one hand and used the stick to aim her rear at the litterbox.She released a torrent of waste,either scaredy poopies from the sudden attack or sorry poopies at the employee for the attack.
“NUUUUU!!! CY’CWOPS GUD!!! CY’CWOPS GUD!!!” She screamed like a banshee as she was taken through an employees only door.
Seth smiled and sighed to himself as he made his way to the fluffy baby enclosures.
As he pushed his cart towards the foal fluffy section,his buggy already filled with a large bag of kibble and litter,Seth groaned as he rubbed his temple.He hated hearing the chatter of fluffies alone but the peeps and cheeps of the foals were persistent and tumultuous.A few were only truly noisy when they were distressed but when gathered in large numbers,they were worse than newly hatched chicks.Almost as bad was the terrible song the PA system was pumping out in this part of the store.A recording of the off-key mamma song that soon mammas and new mammas would sing to their offspring.
“Mummah wuv babbehs,babbehs wuv mummah,dwink wots of miwkies,gwow big an’ stwong.”
The song would be sang by mothers not only to bond with their children but also to calm and soothe them,as even domestic fluffies are easily stressed and scared.
Seth glanced around the large enclosure.There were countless foals here,most were off colored earthies,but a few were of better hue with a few reds,yellows,and even a few pastel whites.A few of the foals had the telltale nubs that would eventually grow into their vestigial wings,marking them as pegasi.One or two even had a small bump apon the crown of their head,marking them as future unicorns.No alicorns as far as Seth could tell,which made sense as most fluffies saw them as dangerous monsters and could barely keep calm in their presence.The newborn foals were all laid apon pillow beds with a water heated core to keep them warm,as foals needed to be kept well above room temperature or they would shiver and die from exposure.They had what some people called milkbag fluffies connected to the walls right next to each pillow so the foals could feed.
The milkbag fluffies were mares who had been put into harnesses that covered their front and back legs but left their teats exposed.A muzzle and blinder then covered their mouth and eyes so they couldn’t speak to the foals or have the babies see them crying.In Seth’s opinion,a fluffie wasn’t a milkbag unless it was pillowed and blinded surgically.
Throughout the enclosure were the walky and talky babies.They were at least a week old and were nearly double the size of the foals.They romped and played with each other,most of them having the trademark fluffy demeanor of being dull witted but kindhearted.A couple of the larger ones however,were being rough with the foals,nipping at a a newborn whose eyes hadn’t even opened.
One of the bullies was a pegasus.He had a black coat and his tail and mane were a vibrant orange.He also had three orange lines of fur that crossed his face,almost like warpaint.The other was smaller but still double the size of the foal it was currently trying to nudge out of it’s fluffpile.She was a green earthie with a black mane and tail.As Seth watched the pair torment the foals,the black pegasus noticed him.
"Wha’ hoomin doin’ hewe?"The young fluffy shot a defiant look at Seth as he stopped biting the cheeping foal.
"I’m just here looking for fluffies that need a home"Seth leaned down so the pegasus could look him in the eye without having to tilt his head up.“Why were you biting that baby?”
"Nice mistuh be nyu daddeh…"The green mare asked,tail wagging and eyes wide at the prospect of a home.The pegasus put all it’s weight on it’s forelegs and kicked her,prompting a sudden scream and then crying.
“Nu tawkie obah Waptow,dummeh”
"*Huuuuu…*huuuuuuu…wowest huwties…"The green mare sobbed and climbed down from the pillow,leaving Raptor and Seth to talk.
“Waptow nu wike dummeh nu tawkie babbehs. Wittwe hoomin pway wiff Waptow. Gib Waptow bestes’ namsies. Den dummeh wittwe hoomin weev Waptow, pway wiff dummeh nu tawkie babbeh. Waptow nu wike dummeh babbehs nu mowe!” As the pegasus rambled,mustering as much anger as a fluffy could,it began to tap it’s front hoof onto the foal it had been biting,not quite hard enough to kill it but hard enough to elicit a drawn out chirp and then several anxious peeps as it didn’t understand why there was suddenly weight on it’s tiny chest.
"Well that kid sounds like a dummy to me too Raptor."Seth leaned down and went to pet the pegasus.Despite all his anger at the forementioned kid,he melted at Seth’s touch cooing and nuzzling his hand.
“*Coooo…Waptow wuv…mistuh…mistuh be…*cooooo…be Waptow’s…*cooooo…nyu daddeh?”
Seth smiled to himself.It didn’t take much to get through a fluffies defences.A few seconds ago this pegasus was angry and wary because of some brat.Now he was putty in Seth’s hands.
“Sure buddy.I’ll be your new daddy.But before I do,we have to go over some rules.”
"Wah am wuwes daddeh?"Raptor asked while still rubbing his head against Seth’s hand.
"Rules are things that I say,and you have to do,no matter what."Seth stood up,taking his hand away from Raptor’s face,causing the previously reserved fluffy to sit on his hindquarters,sobbing quietly."Rule one is that I’m here to get more fluffies than just you and you cannot hurt them.Some are going to be foals…dumb no talkie babies"Seth corrected himself as he saw Raptor tilt his head,still stifling hushed sobs.“So no hurting the other fluffies that daddy takes in.Rule two is that you will make good poopies and pee-pees.This means that you will learn how to use a litterbox.Do you know what that is?”
“…Nu, buh Waptow kno hao maek gud poopies. Waptow maek poopies wiff wittahpaw.” Raptor rubbed his eyes clear of tears and pointed to the back wall of the enclosure.There was a pillowed fluffy in a small plastic container,fitted so that only it’s face was outside the box.Seth had heard of them,fluffies with bad colors,genes,or attitudes would be pillowed,have their teeth removed,and be trained to eat the feces of other fluffies and then lick them clean."Well daddy doesn’t have a litterpal Raptor,but a litterbox is like a litterpal that isn’t a fluffy.You make poopies and pee-pees in it and then daddy cleans it up."Seth did like the thought of forcing an amputated fluffy to clean the shit of other fluffies,but didn’t like the thought of spoiling fluffies with such a luxury.Maybe he’d get a one for Starburst,but with it’s voicebox snipped.He chuckled at the thought of Starburst having another fluffy but not being able to interact with it in any way other than defecating on it.
"Poopies and pee-pees that aren’t in the litterbox are bad poopies and pee-pees.Daddy will punish bad fluffies that make bad poopies and pee-pees."Raptor flinched instinctively at the words bad fluffies,as though he had been struck.“So can you do all that Raptor?”
“Waptow gud fwuffie.Waptow do wah daddeh wan.” Raptor had stopped sobbing,his eyes now filled with the hope of a new daddy and a warm house.
"Ok then buddy.I’ll be right back."Seth walked a few feet away,taking joy in Raptor’s loud sobbing as he walked away briefly,fearing it had all been a lie.He grabbed a couple of the pet carriers on a nearby shelf.They had several options,including a carrier that was translucent at it’s top half with several slotted openings so fluffies wouldn’t feel like they were in a sorry box.Seth opted for the traditional ones,with nothing but the caged door for the fluffy to see out.He walked over and as Raptor’s crying subsided as the sight of Seth,he yelped as Seth grabbed him by the scruff,putting him in the carrier and the carrier on the bottom of the cart."*Screeee! Bad upsies! Nu Wike! *SCREEEEEE!!! NUUUUUU!!! WAPTOW GUD FWUFFY!!! NU SOWWY BOX!!! PWEASE!!!"Raptor screamed for a few minutes as Seth casually walked back to the baby enclosure before finally he started to sob and chirp.
Seth knew that Raptor was a good choice.He enjoyed foals but there was something lost on inflicting pain and suffering on something that can’t talk.He saw that the green fluffy was huddled in a corner,still too shaken by Raptor’s attack to do anything but sob quietly to herself.Seth shrugged,laughing at the irony that Raptor had probably saved her life by getting her away from him.He looked over the foals and found a few off colored that would be fun to play with but he was looking for something very specific.
After a few minutes of looking through the foals and occasionally pinching and flicking the poor blind creatures,he found what he was looking for.A yellow foal mare.She was still very little,probably less than a week old.She could move around slightly but her eyes were closed and she could only cheep.Her tail and mane had slightly come in and was a verdant green."Not perfect but she’ll do."Seth thought as he grabbed her,causing her to peep and chirp up a storm.Seth laughed and gave her a healthy squeeze until she voided her bowels,the smallest bit of feces falling to the ground.She flailed her useless limbs chirping louder and more frequently as he put her with the other foals in the second carrier.Taken from her warm nest and then placed in the shivering fluffpile,she joined the others in chirping and peeping in confusion and fear.
Seth had sat down at the food court,opening his styrafoam container to eat his burger and fries.His cart was a few feet away,the chirps of the foals having dulled but not stopped.Raptor was still crying and chirping but likewise had quieted down,realizing that he was doomed to be alone and ignored.As he enjoyed his lunch he pondered his mental checklist.The foals would be fun,and the yellow one would be perfect for Ash.And Raptor clearly responded well to the mental abuse that Seth was fond of.Still,Seth lost himself for a few minutes,eating a handful of fries as he imagined beating Raptor with a sorry stick.He might even keep the little guy around for a while.Ash and Starburst were already four years old and even the healthiest fluffy began to deteriorate rapidly around their eighth year.And abuse,even mental trauma drastically reduced a fluffies lifespan.He’d have to replace them eventually,as sad as that would make him.
As he finished a sip of cola,he pondered the purple mare,Cyclops.Perhaps he would end up taking her home after all.The desperation in her voice when begging for her babies had stuck with Seth.While he enjoyed physical punishment as much as the next abuser,Seth really enjoyed breaking fluffies mentally,seeing the light go from their eyes as they realized that there was no love or hope in their future,only dispair and pain.She had made it clear that her babies were a priority,even over herself,which was not the case with every fluffy mamma.Some were selfless,until faced with danger or something that scared them.Then many would run or flee,forgetting any babies that couldn’t hold on to their fluff or keep up on foot.Others saw their babies almost as toys themselves,wanting them only to play with,like a grim parody of a child playing house with dolls.
As Seth stood up and bussed his tray,he went over to the cart,jostling it slighlty.He heard the foals chirp harder and more frequently and he heard Raptor bump against the carrier.“*Huuu…*huuu…*huuu…*chirp…Waptow hab wowest huwties…*chirp…”
"Not yet kiddo"Seth said lightly to himself.“Not yet…”
As Seth made his way back around the store,he saw that Cyclops had been put back in the enclosure,the sad little mare laying near her bed and crying.Seth made the decision to take her right then and there,making his way to her pen slowly."*Huuu…*Huuu…*chirp…"The fur around Cyclops’ eyes was stained dark from her tears.She had probably been in the sorry box for at least a couple of hours.
Seth walked up and cleared his throat."Cyclops?!There you are!"Seth yelled,masquerading as though he was suprised and delighted to see her.As she sniffled and looked in his direction,her eyes slowly widened,from sullen to enraptured."Nices’ Mistuh!Pwease hewp Cy’cwops!Twy teww meanie mistah babbehs nee’ mammah!Gabe smewie pwace wowsest huwties!"She wiped her eyes and indeed,Seth saw a small bit of dried blood and bruising under her nose,clearly far worse than the light flick he’d given her.
"I was just where they keep the babies and I didn’t see yours.I hope they aren’t gone."Seth mustered all his inner strength to not chuckle as Cyclops’ eye went wide with horror and she began to scream again.
"NUUUUUUUU!!!MUMMAH NEE’ SABE BABBEHS!!!PWEASE NICES’ MISTUH,HEWP CY’CWOPS!!!"She leaned up against the fencing,her small body shaking with panic.
"I don’t know Cyclops…I already got quite a few foals and even a little stallion…"Seth looked to the fluffy.“I don’t know if I have room for you and ALL your babies…”
He grinned,hoping the fluffy wouldn’t notice.
Cyclops began to sob as she pleaded."*Huuu…*huuu…*huuu…Pwease…nices’ mistuh…huuuuuu…huuuu…Cy’cwops nu nee’ wots!Cy’cwops wittwe fwuffie.An’ onwy haf fwee babbehs!Huuuuu…pwease!Be nyu daddeh fow mammah an’ babbehs!"Cyclops slowly collapsed against the fence,exhausted from all the emotional turmoil.She shook and tremored violently with each sob.Seth leaned down and scooped her up,gently in both hands.She slowly stopped crying and cooed slightly even as she quietly mewled and whimpered.Seth was nearly speechless.She really cared about her babies and Seth could exploit that."Ok Cyclops,I’ll be your daddy.And I’ll even take your babies."Seth held her up so she was face to face with him."But if you want to be a good fluffy for me you have to do what I say,no matter what."Seth gave her a stern and serious look as he told her the rules he had told Raptor earlier and to her credit,Cyclops quietly nodded and waited for Seth to finish.
When Seth was done explaining the rules,Cyclops agreed."Cy’cwops be gud fwuffy fo’ nyu daddeh.Mummah hewp babbehs be gud fo’ daddeh too."She hugged Seth’s hand tightly,cooing at the touch and warmth of her new daddy.He carried her over to a shelf and picked up a third and final carrier.As he put it on top of the litter and kibble bags,Cyclops began to nervously knead his arm with her hooves,staring at the carrier."Cy’cwops nu wike sowwy box…"She tried to distance herself from it as Seth walked over and took Cyclops in both hands,pushing her towards the open carrier slowly on purpose,knowing the anguish it must be causing her.As she crossed the threshold,she kicked and flailed her legs wildly as she screamed,equating a sorry box with being a bad fluffy.
“*SCREEEEEEE!!! NUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!! CY’CWOPS NU WIKE!!! CY’CWOPS GUD!!! CY’CWOPS GUD!!!” As Seth closed the carrier,her screaming increased in fever pitch,her front hooves patting and rubbing at the cage door frantically.Seth tapped the carrier firmly,garnering a shocked screech from the frightened fluffy."Calm down Cyclops!"Seth yelled."We’re going to where your babies should be but if your bad,we’ll leave without them!"Seth waited and was rewarded with her quietly crying."*Huuu…*huuu…yus daddeh…Cy’cwops be gud…huuu…huuu…"She was no longer screaming,now sullen and downcast,with the panicked rubbing of her hooves against the cage door being replaced with a light,nervous tapping on the carrier floor.Content with his decision to come back for her,Seth took Cyclops to the baby section.
Once Seth returned to the foal enclosure,he leaned near the carrier holding Cyclops."Ok girl."He lightly jostled the carrier,causing Cyclops to cry out."What do your babies look like?"Cyclops tried to quiet her sobbing to answer her new daddy."Haf fwee babbehs,daddeh…*huuu…*huuu…a wed mawe,a gween stawwion,an’ a mawe dat wook wike mummah…"Seth found that very curious.Most mammas referred to a baby that looked like them as their “bestest baby”.It was a little rare for a mamma to avoid this kind of behavior but he had heard of the odd fluffy that didn’t play favorites with their progeny.
To test it,Seth played dumb.“OK Cyclops,which one should Iook for first?”"Mammah nee’ aww babbehs…*huuu…*huuu…Cy’cwops nu cawe who fiwst…Cy’cwops nee’gib babbehs miwkies an’huggies…"Seth could hear Cyclops’ breathing become erratic from all the stress and questioning.God he was going to enjoy her.Seth went to picking up babies,one at a time and bringing them to Cyclops to inspect.He had a fun time getting a few of the wrong color and then taking his time,mutteringly loudly enough for her to hear:"I don’t see them anywhere…maybe they’re gone…"He was rewarded with a loud and anguish filled scream followed by sobbing and then chirping and peeps as Cyclops started to hyperventilate,fearing her babies were lost forever.
Content with the outcome of his cruel game,Seth picked up the only purple foal he could find and brought it to the carrier.Cyclops stopped chirping and sobbing and started sniffing furiously in the foal’s direction."Babbeh!!!Mummah wuv babbeh!!!Scawed babbeh gon’ foweba sweepies!!!Fank yu daddeh!!!Pwease gib Cy’cwops othah babbehs…"Seth opened the cage and put the foal in quickly before Cyclops tried to escape in her over excitement.
She instantly began licking the foal and as Seth went to get the remaining foals,he could hear her singing the mamma song to it,her voice cracking from the sudden solace she took in her baby being alive,her miserable wailings replaced with joyful tears.He gathered the red foal and eventually found the green foal that was hers.With all three foals returned to her,Cyclops’ mood improved and she sang happily and cleaned and fed her babies,seemingly forgetting she was in a “sorry box”.Seth pushed the cart to a checkout line.After a few minutes,a young,teenage girl in a Fluff-Mart jumpsuit looked through his cart and tallied up his total.He pulled out a fifty dollar bill,with the carriers and the bags of litter and kibble being vastly more expensive than the fluffies,with Raptor and the yellow foal being slightly more expensive than the others.Still he nearly had ten bucks in change,not bad.He made his way back to his car.
As he began to load his car with the bags and carriers,Seth had an epiphany.After loading the foal carrier and then Raptor’s carrier,Seth let out a fake groan."Oh,no!I don’t think I have room for Cyclops and her babies in the car.I guess I have to leave them here…"The repsonse was instant and Seth had to stifle a horse laugh.
"NUUUUU!!!Pwease nyu daddeh!!!Nu weave Cy’cwops an’ babbehs!!!Huuuuu…Huuuu…Huuuu…Cy’cwops wuv daddeh…"She started sobbing and breathing fast again,causing her foals to chirp and peep in distress,unsure what was wrong."Honey I’m so sorry but there isn’t enough room in my car…"He grinned softening his voice."I guess I could tie your carrier to the top but that would be dangerous and scary…I doubt you’d want that."She sobbed and responded between raspy breaths.“*Huuu…pwease daddeh…*huuu…babbehs nee’ mummah…*huuu…*huuuu…meanie pwace twy take babbehs ‘way…huuu…huuu…Cy’cwops do any’ting fo’ babbehs…*huuu…nu cawe if scawy fo’ Cy’cwops or huwt Cy’cwops…*huuu…”
Impressive.Goddamn impressive for a fluffy.She clearly cared for her children but sadly for her she still had the mind of a child,as she was so focused on the safety of her babies that she failed to understand that when Seth said dangerous,he meant for her and her babies.
"Ok sweety"Seth said as he begain to undo the top of the carrier,twisting out the cheap screws until only the bottome half was left.Cyclops looked up,nervous despite the carrier now being far less like a sorry box.Seth got into his car’s trunk and got out some bungee chords and picked up the carrier bottom,tilting it back and forth on purpose,causing Cyclops to scream and stumble to and fro,clearly terrified of falling as she used her front legs to hold two foals close and her mouth to hold the last.Seth affixed the carrier bottom to the car with two of the bungees and shook the carrier,satisifed with both how firm it held and the sudden jump he got from Cyclops.He then took the last bungee and smiled.He grabbed the green foal from Cyclops’ mouth quickly.
"Bad upsies! Babbehs too wittew fo’ upsies daddeh!Bad fo’ babbehs!"Cyclops screamed suddenly as Seth grabbed the purple and red foal from her grasp as well.He put them aside as he used the bungee to awkwardly hold Cyclops firmly against the carrier.He then lightly grabbed at Cyclops’ front legs and saw how much they could bend and move while she was bungeed in place.Satisfied,he then placed the foals on her back.Cyclops voiced her worries about her foals the entire time.
"Babbehs too wittwe fo’ wide on mummah…"Cyclops looked up at Seth,the fear for her babies clear in her eyes.
"I told you it would be dangerous sweety.Don’t worry,I’ll drive real slowly.As long as I’m careful it’ll be ok.If they start to fall off,you can always grab them…"Seth smiled to himself.
"Otay Daddeh…Cy’cwops wet babbehs wide fwuff.Pwease howd on babbehs.Mummah wuv yu."Seth got in the car and turned the ignition,causing a cacophony of screams,chirps,and peeps.He’d likely have to clean the carriers but damn it was worth it.He decided to take the long way home.
This is the first story I started writing about fluffies. There is a lot more already written but I wrote it in Wordpad and am manually putting the colored text in. I figured this would be a good point to cut off the story into a part 1 anyway.Hope you enjoy and as always feedback is appreciated.Have a wonderful day. 
love this story
