Land, Air, and See
Max was the first to arrive at the farm, and he looked just as bewildered as I had when I showed up so many months ago. I'd worn the new overalls-styled romper that Carolyn had gotten for me, both because the denim was secretly extra soft and stretchy, but it also pretty perfectly showcased my fuzzy legs. I felt a warm satisfaction as Max struggled to control his gaze.
"Hey Max." I swished my tail playfully, enjoying the way the movement grabbed his attention like a laser pointer for a cat.
"Hi Maddie." He seemed timid, and I could hardly blame him.
"Welcome to the dairy, The admin building is behind me, the barn is over there, obviously,–" I gestured at the gigantic red wood-paneled structure, "and the clinic is on the other side of the admin building. I'll confess that I'm a little bit lazy, so I'm planning to do the proper tour once Ellen is here. Are you hungry?"
Max opened his mouth but hesitated. He was wearing a hoodie and hiding his hands in his pockets just like I had done when I first arrived on the farm, but unlike my first day I wasn't as nice as Deyha.
"We have human food in the barn, though I can nick a bottle for you if you're thirsty."
"N-no, that's alright. Uh… human food would be nice."
"Cool, right this way." I held out my hand, expecting him to let me take his suitcase for him, but he shuffled around, taking my hand in his instead. I didn't mind the mixup, and I was even tempted to interlace our fingers for fun, but I decided I'd been cruel enough for the first hour of his visit. Well, almost. I still indulged in a harmless brush of my tail on his leg as we walked.
He didn't say anything for a few seconds so I broke the silence. "Something that I didn't understand when I visited is that this farm is kinda double purpose." I gestured past the admin building as we approached the barn. "The clinic over there is a specialist facility, serving the tristate area and beyond with modding solutions for all manners of issues. I couldn't tell you for sure how much of it is recreational modding or medically necessary, but it does receive government funding to support the community in general."
I looked at Max, he only nodded in response. He hadn't stopped blushing since he first saw me, so I figured he was well and truly out of sorts. I dropped his hand to open the barn door and gave him a moment to take in the sights. The downstairs area was pretty empty right now.
"Xander?" Max seemed bewildered, and Xander mirrored this as she looked up from her phone. "Max‽ Holy shit, Hi! It's been forever!"
"You two know each other?" I followed, collecting Max's forgotten suitcase as he ran to embrace Xander.
"Ow, easy, I'm hooked up right now."
"Oh, shit, sorry." He released her. His blush was back in earnest as she adjusted her snuggie and sat back down.
"So you're the friend Maddie has been telling me about? I'm so happy for you! Carolyn's the best at modding, and now that she's modded Maddie she's pretty good at the gender affirming stuff too."
I coughed, "Uh, Xander, You're thinking of Ellen."
"Oh shit," She laughed and scratched the back of her head. "Sorry, Max I just assumed– I mean, no offense but–" she stammered for another second "I'm just gonna shut up now."
Max laughed, seeming to finally be more at ease now.
"It's fine Xander, totally fine. How have you been? I'm sorry but– god… I kinda burned all my bridges after high school. I never worked up the courage to look you up again."
"Haha, yeah, I had a feeling. I mean, you're here now, so I assume you've made a few good choices since then, right?"
"Oh, for sure." Max beamed.
"Soooo how do you two know each other?" I sat down across from Xander, leaving the other side of her couch as the only spot for Max. He seemed to be uncertain of what to do until she patted it.
Xander looked across at me. "So, back in high school, Max and I were the leaders of the Magical Friendship fan club–"
"Xander‽" Max pushed at her shoulder but she just pushed him back.
"Chill out, Max. Look at her. Do you seriously think she's going to judge you? Anyways, the people who got into that show went one of two ways, really queer, or really–" Xander glanced at Max, "Anyways, what have you been up to?"
Max groaned. "Okay, okay. I fell into some bad online social circles after high school, and when I went off to college and got to know some bad people in person… It honestly took me an embarrassingly long time to realize that it was a hate group, or at least that it was a problem. I went pretty angry and lonely, but I got lucky, made some good friends, and learned some empathy. I connected with Maddie and Ellen, and now I'm in a better place."
"That's so cool!" I made happy little claps. "I love when my friends are friends. Here, I'll let you two catch up a bit and take this up to the guest room. Would you like me to take your backpack up too?"
"Oh! Uh, sure. Thanks, Maddie."
I took the backpack and headed for the stairs. I was desperately curious about what they would talk about, on top of being nervous about what I'd said to Xander about Max. I doubted Max would be all that mad at me, but it wouldn't do anyone any favors if Xander had a lack of tact. Once I'd delivered Max's things, I peeked back over the railing. The two were talking pretty animatedly, though I couldn't quite hear them over the AC.
The important thing was that Max was comfortable. The more familiar faces here, the more likely the ploy to indoctrinate my friends would succeed.
I considered the show Xander had brought up. Max had certainly never mentioned it but I had seen the implosion of its fandom. It seemed safe to assume that with Xander here, and their common interest in a show about talking horses… Max would fit in great, I just needed "him" to feel safe here.
I watched a minute longer before realizing that my lurking had long since turned a corner toward being creepy and obsessive. All I really needed to do was not fuck this up– and also keep Carolyn from going hammer mode on eggshells.
Luckily, I had the perfect solution to remove both of those variables. I debated spinning a conspiracy, telling Deyha to say she couldn't drive to the airport and asking Carolyn to take me instead… but asking Deyha to lie to Carolyn was a terrible plan.
With the fun conspiracy off the table, my only real option was to lay the cards out for both of them. I opened our group chat and got to work.
I shuffled my hooves on the floorboard. I was feeling self conscious as I scanned the crowd of normal people at the airport terminal. Carolyn, in contrast, projected the same self-assured persona that had captivated me at the job fair. I was nowhere near adopting that level of cool composure.
I checked my phone, refreshing notifications repeatedly while Carolyn pulled up to the curb. We'd brought the company truck, so the branding would help Ellen find us, but it was also bound to attract attention from other onlookers, right?
"You're freaking out." Carolyn brought me out of my thoughts.
"No I'm not.– I mean maybe a little, but–"
She unlatched my seatbelt and pulled at my leg, prompting me to scoot to the center section of the bench seat. The gear shift vibrated between my legs, and I had to hold my knees apart to keep from touching it. Carolyn draped her arm over my shoulder.
"Do you need to be distracted?" she whispered in my ear, pairing the suggestion with a hand on the inside of my thigh.
"What if someone sees?" I whined and she curled her hand, digging in her nails and scratching just below the hem of my romper.
"Maddie's first ticket for public indecency, the first of many I'd wager." She slipped her thumb under the hem for just a moment before releasing me and hitting the unlock button on her door.
The passenger door opened and I saw Ellen. She looked great, perhaps a bit travel worn, but she had the cutest cut off sweater and sweatpants combo that showed off a band of smooth skin, "Hey Maddie!" she beamed, oblivious of the conversation she'd walked in on.
"Hi Ellen," Carolyn spoke for me, doing a small wave before resting her hand on my leg again. "There should be space for your suitcase behind your seat."
Ellen opened the second door and hefted her bags into the truck.
Originally, I'd expected that I would ride in the back, but Ellen hopped up beside me, trapping me between her and Carolyn as she closed the door and reached for her seat belt
"Uh, Maddie? Your tail."
"Hmm? Oh, sorry." I pulled it further into my lap, and dug my seat belt out from between the cushions. "Sorry", I apologized again, as my tail flopped into her lap while I shifted to find the spot to buckle in.
Carolyn was smiling at me, her eyes gleaming with predatory intent. She looked at me, even as she talked to Ellen. "I should explain first that Maddie is being trained not to say 'sorry' all the time for silly things."
"Oh?" Ellen sounded unbearably amused.
"Carolynnn" I whined.
She continued, unmoved by my plea, "That means that whenever she says it, she gets bitten."
"And that convinces her not to do it?"
"You know? I don't think it's working, but I don't think it was ever a results-oriented program."
I yelped as I felt a pinch on my tail, and Carolyn burst out laughing.
"Ellen‽" I turned and yanked my tail out of her grasp, leaving myself wide open as Carolyn hugged me into a sort of headlock. I flailed instinctively but she held me firm.
"Ah ah ah," Carolyn cooed. "Hold still."
I whimpered and kicked at the dash as she bit the top of my ear, one of her softest bites yet, and dragged it lightly before letting me go.
"Evil." I pouted and folded my arms. "Evil evil evil, the both of you."
They continued to laugh at my expense as Carolyn shifted the truck into drive and rested her hand on the inside of my thigh.
Ellen nudged me with her shoulder. "You can rest your tail across my lap if it's more comfortable."
"I don't trust you."
Carolyn shifted gears before resting her hand in my lap again, fully palming my thigh. "Maddie." Carolyn spoke as if discussing the weather. "Rest your tail in Ellen's lap. I don't want you to bump the gearshift by accident."
I obeyed. Chewing my lip as Ellen immediately began stroking it, combing the fine hairs back into place with her nails as I buried my hands in my lap.
"In fact," Carolyn continued. "If you don't mind, It would be really nice if you held Maddie's other leg, just so she doesn't cause an accident."
"Oh, It's no trouble at all." Ellen's hand mirrored Carolyn's.
"Jesus fucking christ." I swore under my breath as Ellen gleefully made the teasing a dogpile.
"Language." She scolded me, pairing the admonishment with a firm pull on my tail.
I gasped, I imagined I could already feel myself soaking through my panties and romper, but I didn't have to imagine the leaking on my shirt.
Carolyn giggled. "Oh, Ellen, I'm so glad you're coming to visit.." she squeezed my thigh. "Maddie? Are you okay with having some playtime with my friend?"
"Fuck." I whimpered.
"That's not an answer." She chided.
I shook my head.
"No? Pity–"
"Yes." I interrupted. Feeling an unbearable need carved into my core.
"Oh delightful." Carolyn cooed, "Well, Ellen I never did get around to coming up with a grand prize for winning my little guessing game a couple weeks back, but I hope Maddie's body will suffice. My pet is at your disposal, and I only ask that you heed her if she asks you to stop."
"Yes Ma'am."
"Oh, and… don't cause an accident."
"Is she prone to wetting herself?"
Carolyn cackled. "A car accident. The wetting is a feature."
"Excellent." Ellen turned in her seat, releasing my tail to wrap an arm around my shoulder. Her other hand landed much further north on my thigh.
"Ellennnn" I whined, but like Carolyn, she grinned in reply.
"Maddieeee." she mocked me as she pushed the straps of my romper off my shoulders. I began to regret not wearing a shirt between my bra and romper as she trailed her hand up to squeeze my chest.
I whimpered, struggling to sit still and not kick my feet. "Could you please not waste my milk?"
Ellen pulled my romper down, placing her hand on my belly. I only had a second to relax before she was working her fingers under the elastic band and pulled my bra up.
"Ellen‽" I arched my back, my arms got tangled up in the straps of my romper, so I was unable to stop her as my tits dropped into my arms. "What are you doing?"
"Making sure your milk doesn't go to waste, of course." With no further preamble, she pulled me toward her and scooped up the nearest breast, sealing her lips and sucking.
"Seems like you weren't very careful with your phrasing." Carolyn continued to hold my thigh down, but didn't even spare us a glance as she continued driving. "Be good, Maddie. She's probably thirsty after her flight."
Ellen laughed. "I've been thirsty since you sent me pictures last year."
"You poor thing." I spoke through clenched teeth, burying my hands between my thighs again so as not to bump the gear shift.
I focused on the road ahead and tried to just breathe, but the sensations shortcut any sort of conscious control I might have had over my body. I panted, leaning back into the seat and letting my eyes drift closed for just a second.
That lapse was enough for me to lose focus, basking in the sensations instead of ignoring them as Ellen squeezed hard. She released me for a moment, returning her hand to hold my thighs apart as I caught my breath. Familiar cravings were consuming my body. I disentangled my arms so that I could slip one under the front of my romper, but Ellen caught me.
"Ellennn…"
She pulled the arm up and over her head, wrapping it around her shoulder as she worked her hand down the front of my romper instead.
"Sit still, pet." Carolyn warned and I spread my legs. I placed my hand over Carolyn's but she covered it, continuing to hold my thigh in place.
"Shhhh" Ellen cooed, "relax, Maddie."
She reached my underwear, rubbing over the top for only a second before she slipped under them too.
I melted, my gasps turned into soft cries and pleas as she curled her fingers into me, sending flashes of pleasure up my spine. Carolyn released my leg for a second, and then she too was using both of her hands on me, grabbing a fist full of my hair in one hand while her other palmed my chest. the truck shook occasionally as cars whizzed by, just a few feet away.
I writhed under their combined attention for an eternity, straining my hips and back to feel Ellen's fingers just that little bit deeper, my foot hit a pedal causing the engine to roar for a second before Carolyn kicked me off of it.
"Good thing I pulled over…" she grumbled into my neck and she pinched one of my nipples, pulling up until I screamed and crashed. I clamped down on Ellen's fingers, curling in on myself as sparks ricocheted down my arms and legs. I hugged her arm to my stomach, flinching as she continued to wiggle inside of me.
"Ellen~" I gasped. "Please~"
"Please what?"
"Stop~"
Finally, her fingers stilled and Carolyn relaxed her grip on my chest.
"Jesus Christ" I gasped.
"Why don't you swear on something real?" Ellen asked.
"What?" I felt bleary and confused as I tried to fix my bra.
"I just find it weird how you call out for the christian god when you're indisposed."
"I figured it's safer to swear on something imaginary so it doesn't piss off any real authorities." I rubbed my face and fidgeted to resituate my romper. "Thanks." I murmured as she helped me fix the straps.
"You're welcome babe," She chirped, and I wondered for a second what she thought I was thanking her for.
"You're both so fucking evil." I slumped in my seat.
"Well," Carolyn patted my knee and turned back to the steering wheel, "If I have any say in the matter, I expect you'll have all the time in the world to get your revenge."
"Congrats," I mumbled to Ellen. "That legally constitutes a job offer."
Ellen laughed as Carolyn tried to backpedal.
"Kidding, kidding," I sat up and checked the GPS. We hadn't even made it out of the airport, and now I was going to be soaked the whole trip. "Deyha still gets a say in the matter, but I can tell you and Carolyn have bonded over your shared interest in torturing me."
"Oh? Should I get in her good graces the same way?"
I squinted at Ellen. Instead of replying, I slipped my hand into her lap, resting it on the inside of her thigh as she had on me before. "I'd advise against it."
"Is that some sort of threat?"
"All I'm saying is the last time she welcomed a sweet, innocent girl to the farm she ended up with a second brat on her hands. She's unlikely to fall for the same trick twice."
"You? Sweet? Innocent?"
I pinched her thigh and smirked as she jumped and shoved my hand off her lap.
The rest of the trip passed relatively calmly. There was plenty of flirting and petting, but my offer to blow her in the back seat was politely declined; leaving me as the only soaked and frustrated traveler when we pulled back into the farm. I excused myself to shower and milk and felt like I'd had a nice reset as I rejoined the gang in the barn.
Ellen, Max, Deyha, and Xander were in the middle of a board game, "Settlers of Tacan". There wasn't a good place to pull up a chair, so I debated whose lap I wanted to climb into. Deyha seemed to read my mind as I approached, and she held her arms open to accept me as I snuggled up. I'd picked out a cropped sweater and sleep pants to match Ellen's travel outfit and I was feeling remarkably plush and comfy about it.
"Who's winning?" I surveyed the board, checking which color each of them was playing as, and then doing the math on how many points they each had. It took eleven to win, and nobody had more than seven, so I figured they were about halfway in.
"Looks like it's Max for now." Xander smirked. "But I'll catch her in no time."
My eyebrows shot up, and across from me I saw Ellen take a special interest in the choice of words as well. Max however, was staring pointedly at the board, blushing but seeming happy. Deyha for her part said nothing, picking up her cards to show me that she already had two secret victory points that put her in the lead at eight.
"So how are you liking the farm?" I twisted in my lap to address Max as well as Ellen.
"It's nice." Max replied first. "I can see why you like it here."
"I agree" Ellen said, "It's super great. Is it just one big polycule? Or–"
Deyha and Xander burst out laughing.
"No, Ellen–" I deadpanned. "– Carolyn, Deyha, and I are together, and that's the only polycule here that I know of."
Xander gasped. "Maddie! I thought what we had was special!"
I rolled my eyes and looked over to her. "So special. You're very dear to me, but I was referring to more intimate entanglements."
Xander held up a hand and stage-whispered to Max and Ellen. "Not everyone has managed to seduce Maddie."
"What, like it's hard?" Ellen smirked and I flushed as the table erupted in laughter.
"What did I say about torturing me to get on Deyha's good side?" I folded my arms and stared across at Ellen.
"When did this come up?" Deyha held my waist and I turned in her lap to look at her.
"At the airport, when Ellen and Carolyn dogpiled me!"
"Oh you poor thing." Deyha cooed and hugged me.
"Listen," Ellen held up her hands, ignoring me as I squinted at her. "Carolyn reminded Maddie that she could say 'stop', but she didn't."
I turned away and wrapped my arms around Deyha. "I did, actually."
"Oh, my mistake," Ellen laughed, "but you should tell them when you asked me to stop."
I shook my head.
Xander was cackling now, just like Carolyn would.
"Maddie?" Deyha spoke. "Did Ellen stop when you asked?"
I buried my face in her chest and nodded.
"When did you ask her to stop?"
I shook my head.
"Madeline…" her tone was painfully familiar, exactly as playful as it had been when she made me pull up my dress in the lobby.
"After she made me cum." I whispered.
"What? Speak up."
I sat up and squinted at her. I couldn't believe how badly this had backfired on me. "I told her to stop after she made me cum."
"Interesting, I didn't know she was that kind of friend to you." Deyha smirked.
I turned to look at Ellen. "I didn't either until about five minutes after she got in the truck."
Ellen, predictably, did not seem remotely abashed. "So you send nudes to all your friends?"
"Shut up."
"Well obviously, she ought to move out here and join us." Deyha spoke over my head and I hid my face in her chest again.
"Obviously." I echoed, much to her amusement. "Don't invite her unless you're willing to make the same offer to Max."
"Oh? Are they a package deal?"
"Don't be a butt." I grumbled and pulled her tighter.
Deyha laughed and rubbed my back. I hated to admit it, but it was very soothing.
"Well, you heard Maddie, You're both invited to join us if you'd like."
"Really?" Max sounded hopeful.
I felt Deyha nod. "Really."
I sat up again and turned, slumping into Deyha as she continued to hold me. "I told you when I invited you, this was always the plan. They told me to isekai my friends out here."
Ellen laughed. "Yeah, I figured."
"Why me?" Max sounded dumbfounded, It was heartbreaking hearing the familiar complete lack of self-confidence.
"Because, Max, you're my friend, and I want you to be happy. We aren't abducting you, so it's your choice to come back if you choose, or just stay if you wanna be as insane about it as I was."
"You're telling me you just stayed after visiting for a tour?"
"It's an oversimplification of events." I muttered, "but essentially, yes."
