Chapter Text
Rumi wished that she could tell them but she just couldn't!
Rumi has contemplated telling the girls about her regression but decided against it.
Her thoughts always told him that nobody would understand.
I think you should tell them.
Huh?
About what Jinu?
Your regression
You know why I can't Jinu…
It will do you justice Rue
Derpy had just appeared in Rumi's room.
“Oh, you two are back,are you guys hungry? The girls are out, I'll see what we have…” Rumi stood up and went to the kitchen along with Derpy and Sussie following.
—-----------
Rumi was rummaging through her fridge until she found two raw steaks and looked through the cabinets and took out some seeds.
“Here you go guys,eat up” Rumi rubbed her head.
Their mind felt fuzzy but they don't know why…
Sussie stopped eating to look at Rumi, curious before flying to Rumi's room and retrieved a pacifier and handed it to Rumi before resuming eating.
“Where did that come from? I don't have a pacifier…” Rumi just stared at the object like it was foreign.
It looked tempting…
No! She wasn't a baby…
Derpy looked at Rumi and let out a quiet roar in worry.
“I'm not a baby Derp…I’m not using that” Rumi crossed her arms.
Maybe they have a point?
Jinu?
If they somehow got you that maybe they have a point for you to use it?
I'm not a baby…
Please just try it? If not for me then for them at least?
Jinu-Oppa…
Fine.
Rumi plucked the pacifier in her mouth and started sucking.
It felt soothing….
Why did it feel soothing?
Derpy and Sussie had just finished eating and looked at their new owner.
They looked at each other and turned into a human.
“Is she alright Su-Ho—Noona?” Derpy or Chung-ho asked.
“She's alright, just feels little,help me get her to bed? He looks tired.” Su-Ho or Sussie asked and Chung-ho agreed to help.
“When was the last time she felt little?” Chung-ho asked as the spirit pet duo gently put Rumi on her bed.
“I don't think she has ever had a drop ever since living with her girls…” Su-Ho lets out a sigh.
“Why not? They wouldn't judge…” Chung-ho asked.
“You know how Rumi is…she feels like the only way to be accepted is to be normal… just like him hiding their patterns,she also hides her regression from the girls” Su-Ho explains.
Rumi lets out a small whimper as she opens her mouth causing the pacifier to fall out.
Rumi sat up on her bed.
They let out a small whimper as the pacifier was no longer in her mouth and began to wail.
“Shi—Chung-Ho,do something!” Su-Ho whispered.
Chung-ho nervously looked around and pick up the Pacifier and put it in Rumi's mouth which stopped her from crying, for now…
Rumi's stomach growled which means…
Uh oh!
“Chung-ho keep an eye on him, I'm gonna make dinner!” Su-Ho exclaimed before teleported to the kitchen.
“Ssh, it's okay little tiger cub, Su-Ho Noona will get started on making food for you” Chung-ho kissed Rumi's forehead.
“B-bubba!” Rumi said through her sniffles.
“What's wrong?” Chung-ho softly spoke.
“Rue hungry!” Rumi whined as they sucked on the pacifier.
“Okay,well, Su-Ho went to the kitchen…in the mean time…” Chung-ho pulled out a tiger plushie of himself.
Rumi's eyes lit up.
“Derpy JR!” Rumi made grabby hands at the stuffie.
—------------------MLP—-------------------
Twilight and Sunset were at Pinkie's house for a sleepover.
“Are you sure you guys are not feeling a drop?” Pinkie asked softly which was unusual for her.
Usually Pinkie would be overly energetic and loud but when it's just the three of them including her sisters, she's incredibly soft.
“Y-yeah, you don't need to worry” Twilight looked down, fiddling with her knuckles.
“I can tell you're slipping Twi. Sunny? How bout you?” Pinkie asked.
Sunset stayed silent.
Pinkie lets out a sigh.
“Okay, you two stay here” Pinkie went to her room.
A few minutes later, Pinkie came back with the Sunlight duos little items.
“Here you go Sunshine” Pinkie handed a stuffed lion to Sunset and a stuffed shark to Twilight.
“How old are you two feeling?” Pinkie asked.
Sunset and Twilight looked at each other.
“We’re two.” Twilight spoke in complete english for a mentally toddler.
“I’ll get started on your bottles, do you two want dino nuggies?” Pinkie asked.
“I-I do but Sparky wants roni and pasta” Sunset informed as she was about to put her hand in her mouth but Pinkie puts a pacifier in her mouth.
Pinkie then put on Bluey and went to the kitchen.
—--------------------
Doorbell rings.
Huh?
Twilight went to open it, forgetting she had her pacifier in her mouth.
“Twilight? Darling,why do you have a pacifier in your mouth?” A familiar voice asked,Rarity.
Sunset out of curiosity came to check and saw her friend was about to cry.
“Sparky? What's wrong?” Sunset softly asked.
Twilight starts crying.
“Girls,dinners ready!” Pinkie went to get the duo.
“Twilight? What's wrong?” Pinkie asked in a soft tone.
“Pinkie? You know about this?” Starlight asked.
“I’ll explain,” she said.
Everyone except the Sunlight duo was surprised that Pinkie's voice wasn't loud.
—------------
Pinkie had plated the two littles food while explaining ‘age regression’ to the others as Twilight and Sunset ate.
“So what they're doing is called age regression and they mentally act like a child to cope?” Rarity asked.
“Yep!” Pinkie said in her usual tone which...now that the girls think about it always for some reason seemed force,was she faking?
“But why didn't you girls ever tell us?” Fluttershy softly spoke.
Probably didn't want to get judged…It looks nice but would the other girls understand? Rainbow thought.
Rainbow Dash usually lets herself slip when she's alone.
“We didn't want to get judged…especially them,they didn't want you girls to see them differently or treat them differently…” Pinkie explained.
“Oh sugarcube,why on earth did you think we’d judge you?” AppleJack asked.
The same way I think I would?. Rainbow thought.
It's not exactly normal is it? She thought.
Is Dashie okay? I know she's a little but hasn't told anyone… Pinkie frowned at that thought.
“How can we help?” Starlight asked.
“The Great and Powerful! Trixie and Sunburst will put on a magic show for the littles!” Trixie smiled.
“Twilight likes magic shows while Sunset likes puppet shows but still likes magic shows as well” Pinkie informed.
“I wished my cousin had courage to tell me…” Sunburst let out a sigh as they frowned.
“Cousin?” Everyone except the littles who had just finished eating and were now watching Bluey said in confusion.
“Yeah…Sunset is my youngest cousin…” Sunburst answered.
“How come she never told us?” Rarity asked.
“Probably forgot.” Sunburst replied.
Being a little looks so…carefree there was a pang in Starlight's chest,was that jealousy?
“Do you guys mind helping me? I have a list! They have one hour of tv after lunch which is now!” Pinkie said.
“You know…you don't have to pretend sugarcube.” AppleJack reassured.
“Pretend? What do you mean?” Pinkie tilted her head.
“Your usual tone doesn't give off…Pinkie Pie vibes anymore” Rainbow replied.
“Oh! Um…that's because I don't really know how to turn it off…? Usually I pretend to fake my persona,I only started getting comfortable around Twilight and Sunset…” Pinkie explained.
“I wish you felt more comfortable with us Pinks…” Rainbow told her.
“Pinkie?” Sunset called.
“Yes Sunny side?” Pinkie answered.
“I wanna use washroom!” Sunset replied.
“Alright then, follow me! You guys can watch Twilight.” Pinkie instructed.

“Come Petal, can you please just do it? For me…?” Weiss asked.
The “asked” in question is wanting Ruby to have a drop.
“B-but what if Yang and Blake see? I…don't wanna lose to them…” Ruby lets out a sniffle as she starts to drop.
“They won't leave hon, how old are you?” Weiss softly asked.
Ruby held up three fingers.
“Oh? So you're a big girl huh?” Weiss softly spoke,a tone only reserved for her teammates, friends and big sister.
“Sissy and Blakey still like me?” Ruby asked.
“Of course they will snowpetal, there's no doubt they wouldn't!” Weiss reassured, trying to give her little too much hope…
I really hope they do… Weiss thought worriedly.
“I love you Snowy!” Ruby or should I say Rosie said.
“I love you too darling” Weiss softly kissed her forehead.
