Help Me I'm Soft

Hey There! I go by Cozy [she/they, 26]. Welcome to my fandom/ticklefic blog! Expect much yelling about my comfort characters (and, generally, how much I wanna wreck them).

[cozy-cinnamon-roll]

Intro Post!

Hi friends! Lovely to meet you! 💕

This is my fandom/ticklefic blog, where (as stated in the description) I fangirl over my comfort characters. Said fangirling may include:

thoughts,

headcanons,

semi-coherent ravings,

and the occasional fanfic.

My current hyperfixation is Hazbin Hotel, particularly Alastor. (Other characters you may see pop up here from time to time are listed further down.)

Below is a bit about me, as well as House Rules & my fandom list.

House Rules 🏡

This is a SFW blog. if I post anything that makes you uncomfy, PLEASE tell me and I will remove it immediately.

This is a trauma-safe space. If there are any trigger-warning tags I can use to put you at ease here, please let me know! I am more than happy to add them. No trigger is too obscure!

I write for fun. This is an escape for me. It's also an extremely important coping strategy for when life gets overwhelming. Please leave your hate, unsolicited critique, & creepy DMs at the door.

This is not my main blog! I follow/like from @ticklace 💕

Less a rule, more a disclaimer: I find DMs rather draining to keep up with, beyond very short exchanges or targeted discussions on a specific topic. I am still 100% open to DMs! But be advised I'm much quicker to respond via asks, reblogs, & comments.

About Cozy! ☕

28 (she/they) from USA

asexual biromantic

into tickling (consensual & sfw ONLY!)

99% Ler, as far as this blog is concerned. I have my lee flashes irl, but for whatever reason it doesn't carry into my fandoms much.

My brain is alphabet soup: ADHD, PTSD, OCD, SPD. (But my friends just call me "neurodivergent" 😅)

In love with all things cozy and comforting ❤️ in my spare time I draw, knit, craft, and drink copious amounts of green tea & cocoa ☺️

My Blorbos 💘

Alastor (Hazbin Hotel)

Rosie (Hazbin Hotel)

Angel Dust (Hazbin Hotel)

Just about all the characters from Good Omens

Varian (Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure)

Shen (Kung Fu Panda 2)

Pitch (Rise of the Guardians)

Penelope Garcia (Criminal Minds)

LOTS more than this... will continue to update periodically 😁

red means I'm willing to write ticklefics for them

orange means I'm willing to write ticklefics under certain conditions

blue means I'm NOT willing to write ticklefics for them

Triggers - Kindly Avoid ❤️

blood and gore (except for mild cartoon violence)

ANYTHING nonconsensual

tickling with the intent to humiliate or hurt

I'm also not crazy about female characters being lees. There's no deeper meaning to that, just a personal trauma that makes it uncomfortable for me to read. Some of the fics I reblog have short instances of female characters being tickled (which I'll tag), but none of the fics I write will.

[cloudysfluffs]

dude quit squirming your wife is trying to emotionally connect with you in the only way she can manage 🙄🙄🙄

nsfw/kink blogs dont touch pleaseee :3

[funtergeist]

well damn

[allthingswhumpyandangsty]

just a heads up to my fellow writers out there that AO3 is currently fighting off bots commenting on people’s works to tell them that AO3 will delete their fics “due to the works being deprecated”, and the deletion will affect their accounts unless the authors delete the fics themselves first. IT IS A SCAM. AO3 will NOT delete your works. please do NOT fall for these bots!

I’ve been told the reason why these bots are doing this is due to copyright infringement issue where they’re trying to steal your works (possibly to train AI but this is just a guess) ‼️‼️‼️and once you deleted your fics, it will be either very difficult or impossible for you to claim ownership of your own fics when they were already deleted.‼️‼️‼️

a reminder that AO3 will never contact you through your comments section (in case they claim to be one of the moderators). AO3 will only contact you through your email address which you use to register your account, and it will be from AO3’s official handle. not some sketchy ass @

so if you get a comment telling you you should “delete your works to protect your account because AO3 is doing blah blah blah” report that comment. don’t delete your works.

PLEASE DO NOT FALL FOR THESE SCAM.

AO3 IS NOT DELETING WORKS.

DO NOT DELETE YOUR WORKS JUST BECAUSE SOMEONE CLAIMS THEY KNOW SOMETHING.

Posture

Doctor Who tickle fic

Fluff, since I haven't done that in a while

Eleven x River

I saw this idea in a video on Instagram

Summary: River is mean to her husband

Domestic life was something the Doctor avoided like the plague. River loved it. She loved converting rooms of the TARDIS to look more like a home, since she knew her lover would never settle down and buy a house, so they compromised.

Well 'compromise' was a strong word.

It was more like River just did what she wanted and the Doctor grumbled about it but ultimately let her. He knew he wouldn't win these battles.

Luckily she let him have the control room. As much as River just did what she wanted, even she knew there were some lines she shouldn't cross.

Despite not being a fan of domestic life as a permanent thing, there were some parts of it that the Doctor enjoyed. One being, for instance, sharing a bed with his wife. In the past he had just slept on the floor, in chairs, at tables, and once even standing, leaning against the control panel. He hadn't even owned his own bed before River came along. He didn't see a need, since he just took naps on the floor and was back up to pilot in just a couple hours.

He also had found that he enjoyed decorating. Maybe his decorations were an odd mess of various trinkets he had collected from thousands of planets, but he liked moving them around and putting them next to River's stuff, even if she'd move them back when he wasn't looking. And then he'd move them back, and so forth.

That's what he was doing when he found River on her phone in one of their five living rooms. She had insisted they didn't need that many, but "River, I just have so many rugs, I can't put them all in just this one." She couldn't stand that man sometimes.

He walked into the room, ugly trinket in hand, as he looked down at her, inching toward their end table. "What are you doing that for?"

She raised a brow and looked up at him. "Doing what, love?" Her gaze fell on the little glass trinket in his hand and she forced the same smile she always did when he put it on their end table. The same smile she put on before she inevitably moved it back to his study.

He set it down with a satisfied smile before he looked back at his wife. "Sitting there just staring at your phone. What are you doing that for?"

River looked at the glass figure. It was an ugly little model of a Pting he had picked up. She closed her eyes for a moment, choosing to ignore it before she met his gaze once more. "I'm watching videos-"

"Ugh, the internet," he wrinkled his nose, "what's the point in watching other people do stuff when we can do stuff ourselves? We're time travelers, River, let's time travel!" He said, his energy ramping up. He was practically vibrating.

It always amazed Rose how he could get so much energy in such a short amount of time. It was like a countdown to 'Take-Off.'

"Well sometimes I don't feel like getting wrapped up in some alien government conspiracy, or fighting off the Daleks for the millionth time-"

"Oh why nooot.." He whined, much like a child.

River smirked a little. She loved this idiot. She hated him but man did she love him.

"Oh come on, Sweetheart, the internet can be good for some things. Like this trick I saw earlier to fix your posture and help your back. Come on, let's try it, you stand over that control panel all day." She said, getting up. She grabbed the glass Pting on her way out and stuffed it in her pocket to take back to his study later.

Confused but curious, the Doctor followed her down the hall, toward the control room. He noticed she grabbed a broom from the closet on their way and unscrewed the head off, just taking the handle with her.

When they got into the control room, she turned to him. "Okay, hold your arms out- no not up, out." When he complied, she slid the broom handle into his sleeve, across his back, and to the other side, holding his arms up in a T position.

"I feel like a scarecrow. How is this going to fix my posture?" He asked, shifting as River adjusted the bar a little so it wasn't digging into his shoulders.

Without answering, she dug her fingers into his upper ribs, tickling.

The Timelord yelped and tried to yank his arms down, only for them to be stopped by the broom handle under his sleeves.

"AHA! No this ihisn't fahair thihis isn't fahair! Rihiver!" He laughed, doubling over and trying to twist away.

River only ducked under his arm as to not get his and skittered her nails down his sides. "Since when did you think I played fair? You trust me too much, Sweetie." she purred.

He fell to his knees, giggling up a storm. He twisted again and ended up on his back, still tugging on his arms and now kicking his legs out. "Rihihiver! Mehean! Yohou're MEHEHEAN!"

"Just now learning this, are we, love?" She followed him down and sat on his waist, scritching up his ribs, delighting in his giddy panic as she reached his underarms.

She gently dug in, causing her husband to arch his back and cackle, tossing his head back.

"HAHAHAHAHA! RIHIV- RIHIVER!" He helplessly waved his hands in place, unable to really move his arms due to the broomstick.

River heard his shoes stomping the floor behind her so she smiled and had mercy, moving back down to his tummy, a spot he actually liked. His 'happy spot,' as she had called it.

His loud frantic laughter melted into pleasant, hiccupy giggles as he relaxed, leaning his head back. "Mehean, you ahare.." He chuckled, though he enjoyed the much gentler tickling. A kind of tickling he could actually handle, that helped him relax, and didn't get more than soft giggles out of him.

And finally, the tickling had ended and switched to a soft rubbing, easing the tickles away as she leaned down to kiss his forehead. He panted and looked up at her.

"What was all that for?" He asked, trying to sit up, but failing.

She chuckled and tugged the broomstick out of his shirt. "I didn't really have a reason, I just wanted to try it. And you certainly did not disappoint."

He sat up and wrapped his arms around her, pulling her down on top of him "Mean. I married the meanest woman in the universe."

"Don't act like you'd pick anyone else over me, I'm fantastic." She grinned against his ear, making him shrug his shoulders a little.

"You are.. Fantastic."

It’s always

“When will fanfic writers update their stories?”

And never

“Does this fanfic writer have adequate enrichment to engage in writing behaviours?”

Fanfiction writers (Scriptor fictus) are intelligent animals who need plenty of enrichment as well as encouragement! If they’re stuck in poor conditions (e.g. have studies, work, have to actually write to have something written) then they require the proper enrichment to engage in more healthy behaviours, like writing. Remember, due to poor breeding and socialisation, over half of all fanfic writers suffer from low self confidence and executive dysfunction so take care of them!

Give your fanfic writers proper care. Fanfiction writers are a life long commitment.

Hear Me Out Cake Event!!

This is the wildest idea for an event I've had but... HEAR ME OUT!!!

In this event, we'll be putting our own tickly twist on the hear me out cake trend!! For our hear me out cake, we'll put the characters we'd like to see get tickled on the cake!! >:) I'll explain more below the cut, but I'd also like to extend an invitation for other creators to jump on this event if they'd like!! :D The event will be starting next week on January 12, so keep an eye out for that!

Here's a quick summary of the event, but I will also explain more hehehe~ There are three stages to this event! The first stage is the Hear Me Out!! stage, where you'll pick out a character you'd like to put onto the cake! The second stage is where all of the characters on the cake are announced, which I'm calling the Big Slice or Little Slice stage! The final stage is called Serving the Cake, and it is where the cake is sliced and all the characters on the cake are given a slice of cake (in the form of tickles! >:D)

Hear Me Out!! Stage:

The first stage of the event! This will run from Jan. 12 through Jan. 18 and will be everyone's opportunity to submit a character for the cake! To submit a character, just send me an ask with the character you'd like to submit for the cake! Please specify the fandom as well :) If you'd like to go above and beyond, then feel free to explain why you want to put this character on the cake!! I'll be posting the asks as they come in before posting the final list of characters, so this is where we can all get silly and talk about the characters we love!

One note for this event: I'm really hoping the community gets together for this event, so if there's a character from a fandom that's not on my personal fandom list, still send them in!! I'll be writing for characters that I know about, but if there's a character that you love, you should send them in! If I don't know them, maybe someone else will end up picking them!

Big Slice or Little Slice Stage:

The second stage of the event! This stage will start on Jan. 20 when the full list of characters is posted! During this stage, any creator can pick out however many characters they'd like to write for and start creating whatever they'd like for them!! Art, fics, whatever you'd like to make! There's no limit on who you can write for or draw in this event but also don't feel pressure to create something for every character on the list!

Another note: The dates after the Hear Me Out!! stage are all pretty iffy just so y'all know! Ideally I'll have the list up on Jan. 20 but it could be later, and also the time frame for the Slicing the Cake stage is super flexible for creators! Don't feel pressure to stick within that time (I will for sure be posting outside of the time given haha)

Serving the Cake Stage:

The final (and most fun!) stage of the event! This stage will start on Feb. 3, two weeks after the full list of characters is shared! This is when anyone can start posting their slices of character cake onto Tumblr to share! You are also more than welcome to post before this time, it's just a rough time frame hehe~ If you're participating in this event, please use the tag #cakes and tickles so that everyone can follow along with the event! It's a terrible tag but it'll work haha! There's no technical time limit on the event, but I was thinking the posting period could be from Feb. 3 through Mar. 3 just for a fun little "month" of cake! But like I said before there is absolutely no pressure to do it within that time frame, just make sure to have fun if you decide to participate!! I'll try and reblog as many tickly creations as I can, so make sure to use the tag above hehehe :D

And that's pretty much it!! This is a crazy event and I'm really hoping that other people participate (if not that is all good there is NO pressure I just thought this would be a fun little community thing haha)! I'm looking forward to the best hear me out cake EVER!!!

If you have any questions about this event prior to it beginning, please don't hesitate to send me a message or an ask! I think I explained everything but there could easily be something that I missed! Thank you guys and look forward to this! :D

[kurtsvonneslut]

actually now i’m curious

which “writing sin” appears most in your work?

generous, uninhibited use of adjectives

commas, semicolons; em dashes — i will end before this sentence does,

single-handedly paving the road to hell with my adverb usage

sentence fragments. fuck a subject. fuck a predicate.

“i love untagged dialogue.” “how do you know who’s talking?” “that’s the fun!”

quite a bit of my work is written in the passive voice.

my mission: to boldly split infinitives no man has split before

other (discussion in the tags)

nuance/bald/vanilla extract/jared, 19 button

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS

WHO IS USING THIS

AN APP??? THEY HAVE A FUNCTIONING WEBSITE

THE LAST FUNCTIONING WEBSITE

[iguanodonwildman]

Reminder that ao3 does not have an app. Any apps you see are third party and are making money off of the writers without their consent. They’re also probably harvesting your data. Do not support this garbage.

[fractalspaces]

Louder so people don't quick-scroll:

THIRD-PARTY APP. PROFITS OFF WRITERS, HARVESTS DATA. DO NOT DOWNLOAD.

[zorped]

SIGNAL BOOST

[ofishal-fish-posts]

Once again. Ao3 doesn't have an app. If you see an Ao3 app, it's not official and will probably steal your data. Don't download it, use the web version. It functions just fine on mobile.

[the-bar-sinister]

reasons to write fanfiction (I'll start):

share a cool scene that popped into your head

evoke a particular emotion the canon makes you feel

song made you think of a character or idea from canon

make people feel the same way about a character you do

make dolls kiss for fun

explore ideas the canon hints at but doesn't do anything with

traumatize characters and make them suffer

coddle characters and let them rest

had an insane idea for a crack ship and now everyone needs to know

the author of the canon was wrong and must be fixed

use familiar characters to explore your own ideas and plotlines

canon is too short and you need to wallow in the universe of the story

[skyrim-forever]

characters in your head will inflict psychic damage if you don't

[therealgchu]

it's cheaper than therapy

[goldsnek]

It's Tuesday. Where's the comic 😭

Please don't pressure me into posting, I have a lot of things to take care of and a job. All the pages are scheduled to come out every tuesday so the comic will be updated soon, but please don't be like that. Me and other artists provide these things for free and it's disrespectful towards us to always ask ''more, more'' or ''update, update''.

[kayvsworld]

I know some fic writers get stressed about writing tropes they think are too popular or overdone, and I need you all to know that I just spent 4 hours reading every iteration of the same exact fic plot I could find, and they all brought me an indescribable amount of joy. Listen. Listen. Sometimes you want cakes of many flavours and sometimes you want Nine Carrot Cakes

[alsogiraffes]

Oh yes. The joy of discovering that a new carrot cake has been published is AMAZING

Polly Pocket, but make it Hazbin Hotel~

I keep thinking about the cutouts of old cathedral radios as windows and that inspired this fun little idea
