Jax was walking by Kinger's little pillow fort until the small pillow door opened
"JAX!!!" Kinger yelled, flopping out
"AAH!-" Jax yelped, jumping back "A-Are you insane?! What?!" He put a hand on his chest, his ears twitching
"...Come inside!" Kinger smiled and slithered his way back in his pillow home
"...Seriously?" Jax's ears drooped, annoyed.
Jax hesitated for a second before he heard a yell, his ears perking up.
"JAX, DID YOU F[Boink!]NG STEAL ONE OF MY ARMS?!" Zooble yelled from afar.
"O-On second thought--" Jax scurried into the pillow fort, closing the entrance, scooting back.
"Oh, you came!" Kinger smiled with his eyes, his hands on his lap
"Yeah, yeah-..." Jax rolled his eyes a little
"Wait-- Caine, why are the gloinks here?!" Ragatha's voice rang out, sounding concerned.
"...Oh, it seems I summoned them on accident! My bad, my blue droopy cow!" Caine's voice could be heard
"...Did-... did you just call Ragatha fat-?" Pomni asked, her voice holding worry and little confusion
Jax and Kinger heard all of this, Jax letting out a few giggles. Genuine laughs.
Kinger frog blinked, still staring at Jax "...It's been a while since I've heard you laugh like that, Jax." He spoke
Jax looked over, raising a brow "...How do *you* remember that?.."
"Oh, I remember a lot! ...In the dark, at least. And it's been a while since you've laughed!" Kinger explained, his voice soft
Kinger... knew why Jax didn't laugh like that a whole lot anymore. But he didn't bring it up.
"Yeah, why?" Jax asked, not expecting Kinger to ACTUALLY remember the reason.
". . . Your sharp teeth?" Kinger made up an excuse.
"...I mean-- I guess?" He shrugged, lying down on the pillows beneath him.
"Pfft-- noho... I just look weird with my mouth open. Besides, me talking with my mouth closed is way more cool." He shrugged with his grin, staring up at the never-ending ceiling. There were green glowing stars hanging above.
Kinger blinked. He saw right through Jax. So did Pomni. Honestly? Kinger missed hearing Jax giggle... happily. Kinger was really all Jax had left.
He remembered when Ribbit and Jax would pull a prank on someone and then run off to hide in his pillow fortress, giggling like children when they heard the chaos outside. Queenie was there a few times when it'd happen, too. She'd just look at Kinger and chuckle.
Kinger hummed thoughtfully, thinking. The silence was... kind of comfortable. Besides the chaos happening outside. Gangle could be heard screaming, running away from the gloinks, and Bubble saying... lovely things. Jax was zoned out, but Kinger heard most of it...
"Eep-!" Pomni yelped when a gloink accidentally jumped into her side, then hopped off
"You okay?" Ragatha reached a hand out to Pomni but didn't touch her.
"Hmn?.. Oh, yeah... just tickled." She chuckled and rubbed her side
Kinger looked down at his hands, having a memory flashback
"QUEHEHEHEENIE-! *croak* STAHA-- EEHEHE! *croak*" Ribbit giggled, trying to push Queenie's hand off of his stomach, his back up against her side.
"What? Troublemakers were punished back in my times~" She chuckled softly, her other hand pinching over Jax's sides, who was on the pillow ground, on his stomach, his feet kicking behind him
"*hic* NOHOHO MOHOHORE!!-- *hic* KIHIHIHINGER HEEEEHEHEHEHELP!! *hic*" Jax buried his face in his arms, his tail wagging
Kinger snickered, sitting next to Queenie "Gave them the royal punishment, dear?"
"Of course I did!~" She said cheerfully, resting her head on Kinger's shoulder
Kinger just rested his head on hers, the two boys giggling and laughter filling up the pillow room.
Kinger looked back over at Jax, who seemed calm.
"...I did forget one thing." He spoke.
Jax's ears perked up again as he looked at Kinger "Yeah?.. What's that?"
"If we could still feel..." Kinger tried to hide the smugness in his tone but failed.
"We can... why?" Jax caught on, confused
Kinger hummed "Then... can I just..." his hand reached out, his fingers poking Jax's belly
Jax yelped "Hehey-!" He let out a giggle, about to scoot away
"Just an experiment, don't be so tense~" His fingers now tickled Jax's sides and ribs
Jax let out bursts of giggles, his mouth opening to reveal his sharp teeth. "K-Kihihihinger!!"
There's the smile Kinger remembered...
"What's the matter?.." He acted oblivious but couldn't help but chuckle, watching Jax hug himself and curl up, not making much of an effort to escape.
"You-- *hic* hehehehe! This isn't fahahahair!! It tihihihihickles!!" Jax giggled, shaking his head.
"Geez, did I lose my tickle skills? I think I should start practicing more...~"
"NOHO-! *hic* do nohohot staha-- AAHHAHA!- HEHEHEHEHEY-!" He squealed when Kinger started to pinch around his belly and sides... and lower ribs.
"Do nohohot what again? Couldn't hear you over that... oh, that so mysterious laughter~" Kinger teased
"KIHIHIHIHIHIHIHINGER!!-" He hiccuped, covering his face with his hands, his smile still visible as his feet started to kick a bit
"Yes, that's my name! Very good~!" You could hear the grin in his voice.
"SMAHAHARTA[Bonk!]S!! *hic* HEHEHEHE!- *hic*"
"Wanna play bunny burrow?"
"NOHOHO!! NO-- AHAHAHANYTHING BUT THAHAHAT!!" Jax uncovered his face, his eyes wide. But they immediately shut again when he threw his head back in laughter
"I think we should!" Kinger ignored Jax's pleads.
He pinned Jax's hands to his chest, his other hand going down to Jax's knees. He put two fingers on his knee and started to "walk" up Jax's leg
"The bunny takes one step, two step, three step, four step!"
"I cahaha-- I cahahan't loohohohook!!" He whined between his giggles, somehow grabbing Kingers' hand and covering his eyes with it.
If Kinger could, he'd smile fondly at the rabbit.
"Five step, six step... until he stumbles across moss!" Kinger poked his fingers around Jax's thigh.
"*hic* KIHIHINGER-- *hic* NOHOHO!! STAHAHA-- AAHAHAHAHAHA!" His wide smile somehow just got bigger, his face flushed
"What? The bunny likes the moss!"
"WEHEHEHEHELL MAKE IT STAAAHAHAHAHAP!!"
Kinger chuckled "Fineee..." he placed his two fingers on Jax's hip, digging in a little, making the rabbit squeal. "He walks again! One step, two step....~"
His fingers crawled up until it stopped below Jax's stomach
"Noho-- noohohoho!! Dohohohohon't!!" Jax gripped Kinger's hand more, his legs curling up
"He jumps right into home!!" He zipped his fingers to Jax's belly button and stomach, digging his fingers in
"EEEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEEK!!! *hic* KIHI-- *hic* NOHOHOT THEHEHE-- *snort* NAHAHAT THEHEHEHERE!!! *hic* OHO-- OH MY GAHAHAHAHAHAD!!" He went absolutely HYSTERIC
Kinger snorted and stopped, seeing Jax had enough.
When Jax let go of Kinger's hand, panting and giggling tiredly, he had it rest on top of Jax's head. "You okay?"
Jax curled up, his mouth now closed as he nodded "Yeheah... yeah-... f-- ehehe... fihine..." His eyes drooped closed, absolutely exhausted.
"How about you take a nap?"
Jax let out an exhale. "I... guess that wouldn't... hurt..." he was already drifting off to sleep. Didn't take long until he just passed out.
Kinger just shook his head fondly, patting Jax's head "...Goodnight, kid."
Jax really was the same goofball he remembered...
If Jax seemed more childish... that was the intention! This is more Kingers POV, and he still sees Jax as that childish young boy he remembers.
