Chapter Text
Jade had woken up, scared, Blind.. cold.. and alone.. He wiped his eyes going over to his brother’s bed, tugging on the older’s sleeve.
“Bubba.. Bubba.. Floyd pease wak up…”
The younger said, clearly regressed as Floyd groaned, rolling over to continue snoring. The younger's eyes pricked with tears as he toddled out, quickly hurrying to Azul’s room blindly stumbling on his way, knocking softly as he began to cry.
Azul opened the door, looking forward and seeing nothing until he looked down, seeing Jade who was currently crying into his hands as he curled up into his knees, Azul knelt down, looking at the younger.
“Jade, are you little..?”
The younger nodded, looking up, a scaly pattern appearing on his face due to the tears, as he sniffled a small puddle began to form beneath him, that area turning to scales as well.
“Oh Jade.. you poor thing..Come on let's get you cleaned up..”
The younger nodded, reaching to be picked up by the older, who did so. Azul then carried Jade to the bathroom to get him out of his damp clothes and into the tub.
Jade needed.. Much more help than normal. The older had to undress him and put him into the tub.. For the love of the seven how small was he? The older put some bubbles into the bathtub, setting the younger in there as he began to wash Jade up.
“Jade~”
The older cooed out hoping to grab the attention of the younger, Jade looked up, his eyes bright with childlike curiosity. Seems Azul knew what to do with younger kiddo’s. Jade giggled, squealing. Which, he had never done before while small. This was very new for Jade, the older began to grow confused, how young was his baby?
“Jade.. buddy, how old are you..?”
The older asked, curious on what the younger's age was, Jade cocked his head as he slowly pulled his hand out of the soapy water, holding one finger up as his face changed, that finger slowly went down. Seems as if Jade’s age range was much bigger than they thought. Jade rubbed his eye, reaching to be taken out of the tub.
As soon as Azul took Jade out of the tub, the younger had to drink a potion to shift him back into his human form. Jade soon stuffed his thumb in his mouth as he yawned behind it. Azul thought ‘Maybe I should get him into a diaper..’
The younger yawned, clearly just wanting to sleep. Azul carried him to a table of some sort? Jade was curious, he began to feel what he was just placed on.. A changing table? The younger one soon felt a comforting presence, something was being folded over his abdomen, it was.. Soft which made Jade feel even smaller.
Azul began to put a diaper on to the blind baby, taping it nice and snug around Jade’s waist. Which the younger seemed to enjoy as he sucked his thumb peacefully while he dozed off. As Azul carried him back to his bed, slipping a pacifier into the younger's mouth.
In the morning Floyd woke up to see his brother sucking a pastel blue pacifier as he was cuddled up in the blankets. Floyd got up, scooting his slippers onto his feet and picking up Jade as he continued to sleep, did Jade regress further than normal? Floyd had no clue, but he sat there, rocking the younger one until he woke up.
The older had picked Jade up, carrying him to Azul’s room as he began to stir, clinging onto his brother as the pacifier continued to bob up and down between his lips as he suckled. Jade loved his pacifier, sure he couldn’t see it, but he loved it.
The younger began to stuff his face into his brother's chest, recognising the familiar smell of his brother’s cologne and cooing, Floyd smiled, patting the younger’s head gently as the younger continued to suckle on the pacifier.
Floyd soon came to Azul’s door, knocking on it gently as the gray haired boy answered, a small smile creeping onto his face as he saw Jade still just as little as he was earlier. Floyd spoke up, quiet enough not to scare Jade.
“Azul, what the hell happened to my brother?”
Azul chuckled stealing Jade out of the other’s arms before explaining
“He came to me, the storm scared him really badly last night.. It may have caused him to fall into the younger end of his age-range. But he’s a happy little guppy for right now.”
The other smiled gently, as Jade began to fuss quite loudly, Azul was quick to shush the younger as Jade eyes welled with tears. Azul moved him over to the play area, handing him a sensory cube to play with. Jade soon stopped fussing, playing with the cube that the older gave him.
Floyd questioned Azul, unsure of what was going on
“Is my brother going to be okay?”
He asked with a concerned look, Azul smiled, answering the question simply.
“Do you think he’ll be okay?”
As he gestured to Jade who was playing on the playmat, a pacifier in his mouth playing with a sensory cube that was placed into his hands, giggling softly as he continued to play with the cube. Floyd responded, hesitantly.
“I guess he’s alright for now, but what happens when he has to go to the bathroom?”
Azul, who already planned ahead, picked Jade up, pulling the hem of his pants back, showing Jade’s diaper before fixing the younger pants back to the way they were. Then setting Jade back in the playpen with his sensory cube.
“Oh- will it turn him into an eel if he.. Uses it..?”
Azul shook his head, replying
“Well the core turns to gel if he wets it, so I don’t think that should be an issue as long as he’s changed regularly, but on the other hand, I'm unsure if that will affect him at all.”
Floyd nodded, sitting in the playpen with Jade to play with him as he pulled Jade into his lap. The younger began to yawn after a few hours of playing with his brother, cuddling into the older as he rubbed his eyes softly.
“Oh, someone is sleepy!”
The younger nodded cuddling into the older as he yawned, rubbing his eyes as the older laid down, setting the younger on top of him so Jade could rest. The younger laid on top of Floyd, beginning to doze off as his pacifier bobbed in his mouth as he succumbed to sleep.
The younger woke up, his stomach throbbing as he began to sniffle, tearing up. Floyd quickly began to shush him gently, rocking Jade to try and get him to calm down. The younger continued to cry, squirming as tears spilled onto his cheeks.
Azul soon stole Jade out of Floyd’s arms, seeing what was wrong as he rubbed the younger's stomach, shushing Jade softly. Azul pulled off Jade’s pants, hopefully to help him calm down as Jade hated pants while regressed. Which worked a bit, as Jade began to squirm more, Azul continued massaging the younger's abdomen to hopefully help the younger’s pain.
Jade soon cuddled into Azul, as the older rubbed his back. Jade’s face soon scrunched up as he emptied himself into the diaper, relaxing once he had finished. Azul smiled, patting the younger’s head before praising him, after all, it was his first time this small.
“Good job Jade! You went potty! You’re such a good boy♡”
The younger simply cooed in response, clapping his hands happily as he sat down, smiling brightly behind his pacifier. Azul soon picked Jade up, putting him back down on the oh-so familiar changing table before un-taping the diaper and wiping the younger clean, before sliding a fresh diaper beneath him and fastening it onto the younger.
The younger cooed yet again, giggling and cooing softly as he felt the rubber nipple of the pacifier being put into his mouth, right as Azul picked him up and began to rock the younger, gently humming to him softly as he watched the young boy kick his legs.
Azul sat the youngest down on the playmat, watching the younger crawl as he felt around for his sensory cube, as soon as Jade found it he squealed rather happily and began to rub his fingers over the different textures, and pushing some buttons that made music play.
Jade played for what seemed like hours, while Floyd was cooking in the kitchen, making food for the trio. Floyd of course made Jade’s absolute favorite, Mushroom pasta, with the mushrooms removed for the other two. Floyd really had no clue why Jade loved these simple fungi so much, but he did.
Jade was soon taken away from the play area and sat in a highchair. Jade was confused, but didn’t mind as he kicked his legs playfully as the other two cooed at how cute the younger was.
Azul took a forkful of the pasta, beginning to feed it to the younger as he giggled, maybe Azul should have bought that bib when it was on sale.. Because Jade was making an absolute mess, his shirt, his hands, his cheeks were soon all covered in pasta sauce.
Soon after Azul finished feeding the younger, Jade was in desperate need of a bath, so Azul picked him up and carried him to the restroom as he began to set Jade's now sauce-stained clothes into a laundry hamper before helping the younger get undressed, and into the tub.
Jade couldn’t help but giggle as he was put into a big tub of bubbles and toys! The younger played while Azul washed his face up, kissing the younger's forehead while doing so, cooing at how cute his baby was.
“Jaade~ baby boyyy-”
The other cooed out, making Jades head turn to Azul.
“Oh hello sweet boy, whatcha doing? Hm? Are you playing with your toys?”
The younger nodded, giggling softly and going under the sea of bubbles before holding up a small pink dolphin toy with his hands, handing it to Azul with a proud smile plastered onto his face.
Azul smiled, patting the younger's head before washing his hair, making sure every part of his baby’s hair was cleaned to his expectations. When Jade’s hair dried it should be nice and fluffy, as he likes it. The younger was soon finished being cleaned up as he was scooped out of the tub to get changed into a fresh diaper and a new onesie.
Jade was soon taken back to the changing table and laid on it, the older began to pull a diaper beneath his bum, folding it over his abdomen gently before taping it snugly onto the other’s body.
Azul picked Jade up off of the changing table, looking for a cute onesie for Jade’s naptime, which was coming up soon. Azul soon found an absolutely adorable onesie to put his baby boy into.
Azul helped Jade into the onesie, pulling it tightly over Jade's thick overnight diapers, struggling to close the snaps as he eventually closed the onesie between his little one’s legs.
The older picked Jade up, rocking him back and forth slowly as he sat in a rocking chair which made the younger's eyes become heavy. As the youngest yawned, rubbing his eyes, Azul handed him the baby blue pacifier that Jade loved so dearly. The pacifier was soon put between his lips as he suckled the nipple.
Jade cuddled up in Azul’s arms, sucking the baby blue pacifier as he began to doze off in the olders arms, his eyes beginning to droop softly as Azul rocked him in the chair, rubbing his back ever so often while whispering sweet nothings into his baby’s ear until Jades eyes eventually fell shut, the young boy succumbing to the temptation of sweet, sweet slumber.
