cool, just read the first part last night.

Fairly nice, just a tad fast but that's just my petty nitpicking. I'm happy to have read it. I will probably be a returning commenter.

Awesome job I love this story to bits! Keep up the great work!

Figured it best to comment on the story as a whole over both parts.

***

This story reminds me of how I feel I got started with desiring diapers.

My sister was born 3 years after I was born. Age 3 is when, according to pediatricians and the like, when your brain is finally starting to store memories. It is also a time after, or during, being transitioned away from diapers and using the potty. However, as you may already know, it can also result in a desire to regress out of jealousy for your new brother, or sister, who is now capitalizing on all the attention and affection while not being yelled at for making messes of any sort.

What makes my situation unique is how my sister was born with the same degenerative eye condition I was born with. This meant she needed extra, extra attention while, as a big brother should, I had to begin getting better at letting people put my eye medications in and helping out.

Some of my first memories of diapers start from when I was 4 years old. Taking time to reflect on how vivid my memories are from before the age of 10, I can say with certainty most are of diapered cartoon animals and how bashful I got when we would go through the baby aisle in a store.

The big brother, obviously 5, or more, years older than his baby brother, doesn't really want to get 'hands on' with PICHU. It may be fun to interact with baby bro from time-to-time, but to have a babysitter / parental requirement of responsibility definitely puts a dark cloud over what 'they' want to do.

***

After PICHU drops his first load into his pamps, PIKACHU is very obviously annoyed. The reason, to me, is how he dreaded the idea of going anywhere near his brother's diapers and how he really, really did not want to deal with a dirty diaper. The way PICHU handled having a pack in the back of his pamps certainly did not make PIKACHU feel much better. He has no real memory of using his diapers and what he did that was very similar to his little brother. If he knew, he'd not be as bothered about playing his part. Memories do not work this way and, based on life after 'Potty Training' and how 'diapers are for babies' and 'immature', big brother sees only a big bother. It does not help in how playful PICHU is up to, during, and after having himself changed and cleaned up. What kind of 'game', or anything to giggle over, is watching your brother gag and squirm over ridding you of a mess you do not really care is there?

You then neutralize all the disdain that big bro has towards his sibling by having them lose track of time while playing with the blocks. This shows that, despite how PIKACHU feels on this day in having to watch his little brother, that they really do have a bond. (You look for this as it can eventually lead into having someone more your age to talk to who is not your parents. My sister and I had off-and-on good and bad times together. However, it was always swell knowing you could talk to someone who could understand when you needed to feel more at ease over those life things that mom and/or dad cannot relate to as much as your sibling.)

***

The moment of PIKACHU giving in on trying his little brother's pacifier / binky was one that, for me, is relatable to real life situations wherein one who is inclined towards 'feeling little' knows they were taught to not want such things. The problem is that an opportunity has opened itself up and that opportunity can give you oh-so many butterflies in your tummy as what you don't understand wanting fights with the social programming of being able to just say, "I'm going to put this on the table and return it to my brother's room when he wakes up.".

***

PIKACHU had a really good 'Dream Sequence' while using the pacifier. PICH's was even better for the amount of detail he saw along with how his concious and subconcious turned a real life bodily need into just another part of the playtime at the fun park.

***

Ending Part 1 and moving into Part 2 serves as a gradual understanding and appreciation of PICHU by his big brother. The way he handles PICHU's third messy diaper of the day, which is just before bed, also sets up for JIRACHI's visit to make mischief for the PIKACHU the next day.

***

Part 2 makes me feel like it should be material shared with others who do not understand why they find themselves bashful about diapers, pacifiers, etc. PIKACHU is annoyed at 'his wish being granted' by JIRACHI, but the annoyance is, more than likely, a result of what he has been most familiar with when it comes to how a Pokemon of his age should behave over having any true disgust for being in need of diapers like his little brother.


***

Overall, given I'd put PIKACHU's age at between 8 and 12, having all that transpires in the second part helps those who, as I did, make more sense as to why they feel a desire to play with baby toys, suckle on pacifiers, wear diapers, etc. More importantly is that it greatly boosted his relationship with his little brother. So it was a big 2x win for PIKACHU in seeing how he could indulge, when the time was right, in being little even though he was not little while having more ways to know what it was like to be a PICHU and why his brother does what he does.

I only got a small bit into the sequel. Though I hope to read through it soon.
