[notes: can u guys tell waterboy is my absolute favourite character in dispatch? he's like a rlly wet puppy i wanna squeeze his cheeks and kiss him silly]
It’s safe to say that during Waterboy’s career as a hero for the SDN, he has never been put in an interrogation-like situation by villains before.
However, this cannot be said the same for interrogations from heroes.
“Speak now, wetwipe-boy, where did you put my leftovers!?” Flambae demanded. His voice was laced with annoyance and anger, as if he didn’t have Waterboy pinned down under him and tickling him until he was (literally) a puddle of giggles on the breakroom’s floors.
“Yeah, waterbitch! Tell us where you left my boy’s leftovers!” Prism joined in, her fingers squeezing around Waterboy’s sides. He curled up in response, endless giggles pouring out of his mouth as he tried to wriggle away from his offenders.
“Wa-waAhAHha! I doOHohhon’t knowhow!” Waterboy cried. He felt Prism's penicured nails slowly climb up to his ribs, and brought his arms down to clench around his torso, a poor attempt to guard himself against the duo.
The two ex-villains continued their interrogation on Waterboy on the floor of the breakroom. Flambae was currently sitting on top of him, preventing the poor water-hero from wriggling away. His hands roamed around his stomach, giving him belly scratches as if he were a small, playful puppy. “NohOHOHo- Noho-oHOht theeEHHEher!”
“What, got nothing to say for your actions? You too ashamed of your actions to admit you threw away my leftovers? Again?” Waterboy could only laugh desperately in response; a few snorts escaped his lips as Flambae’s hands clawed at a particularly ticklish part of his stomach. Waterboy tried to grab Flambae or Prism’s ticklish hands, but it only resulted in him flailing his arms around rather stupidly and adorably.
“I- ihihi swehehEHEear! I dihihidn’t throhoHohohow it awaAHahahay!” he pleaded for mercy.
“Lies again? You water bitch, you should know better than to lie to ME!”, Flambae threatened. He then grabbed both of Waterboy’s hands in one of his own, rather easily, and held them up in the air. Leaving all of his torso free for torment tickles. Prism seized the moment and paused to pull out her phone to film their victim.
Waterboy’s eyes widened with panic, muttering and spilling broken syllables out in desperation for mercy. “Wa-wahahit, plu-please! Let-let’s tah-talk about this?” Flambae and Prism exchanged glances, and a devilish-like smirk appeared on both of their faces. Waterboy felt his heart drop. Oh no…
The two ex-villains eyed him down like deadly predators locking onto their prey. “Listen here, Waterbitch-babe, let’s make a deal.” Prism started, her phone pointed directly at him. “If you can make it through 3 minutes of tickling WITHOUT letting out a single laugh, we’ll let you go like this never happened.”
As if Waterboy couldn’t get any redder, the blush on his face grew as he felt the pressure of the situation. If he could get by 3 minutes of tickling without laughing, they would leave him alone.
He nodded lightly, figuring that he probably wouldn’t be able to get any coherent words out for them to understand clearly. The smirk on Prism and Flambae’s faces only grew wider. They remained silent for a few moments, building anticipation for their victim before suddenly going downtown on his defenceless torso.
Unfortunately for Waterboy, this was going to be the worst 3 minutes of his entire SDN career.
Flambae’s right hand restrained Waterboy’s arms mid-air without room for struggle, while his other hand clawed and spidered across Waterboy’s stomach. “Coochie coochie coo, waterbitch. Is the tickling too much for you to handle? It’s okay, baby boy, just laugh it all out, and this will all be over~” Flambae’s baby talk and teasing made the tickling much worse for Waterboy. He opted to just close his eyes, in hopes it would block out the ticklish sensations.
Prism, on the other hand, used both hands to mercilessly tickle him with killer accuracy. Her skillful hands switched between scratching and squeezing at his hip bones. But he stayed firm, puffing his cheeks out and biting the inside of his lips to stop himself from laughing.
Waterboy felt like he was going to die!
Her hands jumped from squeezing his hip bones to counting each rib one by one. And laughter and snorts flooded from Waterboy. His reaction earned devilish smiles from Flambe and Prism. “NOHOHoHoho! *snort* PLEHeheHEsae- WHahahahAHhai- *snort* whHAHAhait!” He was laughing and snorting so hard he was sure the entire dispatcher branch of the SDN could hear him!
Suddenly, the doors of the breakroom opened. “Hey, Flambae. Sorry, but I think I accidentally mistook your leftover for mine?” Blonde Blazer walked in, looking suspiciously at her, or Flambae’s, leftovers.
She looked up to the scene in front of her: two vicious villains from the Z-team ganging up on the janitor-turned-rookie-hero. Her eyes glowed a bright golden, ready to step in and intervene. But the giddy laughter from Waterboy immediately calmed her down
A soft smile grew on her face as she left the scene. She was really glad she wasn’t in Waterboy’s shoes.
[ I didn't know wether to ask you or not because it says in your masterpost that your headcanons requests are open yet your profile says that requests are closed so FORGIVE ME IF THIS IS A BOTHER (;ŏ﹏ŏ) ]
I just wanted to know if you'd be willing to make headcanons for Sonar from Dispatch? I would love to get some content of him, BUT IT'S TOTALLY FINE IF NOT!! :]
-Anon 🌹
This isn’t a bother at all, I appreciate you asking!! This made me realize that I may have confused you and maybe a few others with my Masterpost and my bio with the requests, so therefore I have fixed it. My headcannon requests are open!! And YESS!!! I would LOVE to give you Sonar head cannons 🙂↕️🙏 sooooooooo
SPOILERS FOR ONE OF THE ROUTES BY THE WAY!!! You have been warned!
Let’s get the show on the road
Sonar
%100 Lee energy.
• You cannot TELL me that he just doesn’t give awkward giddy vibes.
• He acts tuff, but in all reality, he gets his shit wrecked almost everyday by the dispatch group because of HOW sensitive this mfker truly is.
- one time Robert found out by coupé teasing him about that earlier scandal with him getting cuffed up to one of the gym equipment. Like, can you imagine, they’re casually talking about it to get Sonar fed up, and then she even pokes him a few times to get him stirred up even more, and Robert catches this, so then he’s all like, “wait, the off-brand Batman is ticklish?” And then it goes DOWNHILL from there. (Sonar did not like that nickname btw- Robert got his shit wrecked as well)
• he may be hella sensitive and even grows a liking to being the one on the receiving end, but he sure as hell has his fun with being the receiver. And let me tell ya, he is RUTHLESSSSSS
- Robert is scared of this guy. So is Prism.
• bro, his ears are a death spot. JUST LOOK AT ‘EMMMMMM
• he’s the type to- no, I’M the type to stereotype character’s real laughs with their va’s. So if you’ve EVER heard Moist critical laugh, that’s basically just Sonar. I CALLED IT!
• anytime someone goes after his ears, he hurdles and just sprints away. And anytime you try to bring it up, he’s all like “hm? What happened?” But he is secretly staring at you as a way to not bring it up again lmaooo
• if you get him good enough, he’ll gradually turn into his big bat form (I don’t remember what they called it 😭)
• he’d be the fucking type to go to someone if he’s being chased just to be all like, “hehelp! They’ve come to kill me!” And the one who’s chasing him would be all like, “great, can you hold him still for me? Sweetheart needs lesson.” Or something like that if it were Malevola or Coupé.
• the way that the z-team all have different ways to just TEASE this mfker down to a pulp until he’s a giggly puddle without even TOUCHING this guy?? Oh lord.
- Robert would be the type to be blunt about it. Of course, have you played him?? He’d straight up call Sonar out, and then TEASE him for it. He’d bring beef into it too. “Beef? Attack!” And beef would run up to sonar and just attack him with licks and scratches that tickle. Sonar would not resist the giggles that would bubble up inside of him. Because one: Beef is cute and two: he’s getting tickled by a damn chihuahua??! And then robert, this fucker, would just be on the side lines all like, “aw, a bat getting taken down by a small dog? How cute.” OH MY GOSH
-inivisigal would go in and out of being invisible to fuck with the guy. Sonar would be get too worked up that eventually he’ll just sit there and take it cause who’s gonna stop Visi? Like, genuinely? She’ll do it again! She’ll all be like, “you know, for a big scary bat-human you are, you reallg suck at hiding the fact that you like this.”
-prism is such a MENACE. She’ll use her power to hold Sonar down just to tickle him to pieces. She’ll use teases like, “c’mon hun, you gotta be stronger than that to take me down.” Or, “this pitch of yours could really go well with my new dis-track. You mind helping me a bit?” AAAHH I LOVE PRISM.
-malevola would also use her power, but for a very funny and messed up reason. Obviously she’s one to tease him and poke him- not fully going all out on him, but when he’s on a mission, she would like to intervene if the mission isn’t too serious and would randomly poke him or scratch at the ear through a portal she created. Sonar would get so red and pissed coming back because he would just walk in on her waving all innocent too.
-punch up would only ever tickle people if they are getting into an argument and he was blatantly told that he couldn’t harm anybody. It’s a wierd headcanon but I’m using it. Sonar and punch up get into an argument, and going off of Robert’s word on not harming anybody on the z-team, he results to either two things. Dick punching, or tickling. And with sonar, since he has such a unique way of laughing, he results to more tickling the poor man.
-flambae would be a little shit. Ever since discovering Sonar’s sensitivity, sonar is now more scared of flambae than anyone else on the team. Flambae would get random bursts of wanting to just humiliate somebody, and Robert or surprisingly sonar would be on the top of his list of people to humiliate for fun. (He goes after his ears more than anybody else because he’s fond of the way sonar screeches when his ears are touched.)
-golem is such a sweaty bro, if he’s wanting to tickle a certain team member, he would ask somebody else to do it just so he doesn’t potentially hurt anybody. Is this ooc? Maybe.. but if I were to say he has tried a few times to get him out of that ooc state, then so be it. He prefers if he just holds sonar or nobody down while another tickles them for his own entertainment. He usually does it it get a laugh out of sonar, because he likes to crack jokes, and sonar is hard to get a laugh out of if not directly forcing a laugh out of him- so that’s what golem does.
- coupé straight up threatens to tickle him, and each time it sends a shiver down his spine and he’s like, “nope! I’m good!” Because she’s the only one(just my headcanon btw feel free to change this one) who hasn’t been tickled by because of how intimidating she is. Even the thought of getting tickled by her leaves Sonar to be in a giggly mood.
• sonar is a talker when being tickled 🪦
“Plehehease! Hahahave mehercy!”
“Ihihi’ll doho anything! AHANYTHING!”
“NOHOHOT THERE! AHAHA!”
“Nohoho, ihihit’s sohoho bad!”
“Gohohod, KIHIHILL MEHEHE!”
• he likes to think he’s a fighter, but in all reality, he covers his face to hide from the embarrassment.
• okay, enough of him being on the receiving end.. his receiver end however? Oho you’re FUCKED
- Brodie, he holds grudges. And I mean HARD.
- you know at the end of the game SPOILERS if you choose the route to cut him from the team, and you get to the end of defeating him and shroud, and you have the option to get him back in the team? Bro. Robert is donzo after accepting him back into the team.
- “so, SDN dispatcher sir, how are you liking me now that I’m back? Huh?”
“Gehehet ohohoff mehehe!”
“Hmm? Nah. I’m lm still holding that grudge. Maybe after I’m down being petty about it.”
“Na- AHAHA! Nahahoho! Plehehease!”
Oh my gosh I died-
• he’d be such a tease too!
“You like this spot, don’t you? Don’t worry, cause I like it too.”
“You know technically, you could be my next prey. And these razor sharp teeth are ready to feast!”
“I wonder how you would taste!”
“Is this a bad spot? Oho buddy! You are not ready for what’s about to happen next” - yk, hinting at his teeth :D
• he would use his teeth a lot to drag out more laughter from his target. Cause you know, he was a canibal at one point-
• bro, he would become so satisfied everytime he would nibble on someone but to get a big reaction out of them, cause then he’s just like, “there’s that blood curdling scream! It sounds different from my last victims though?” “That’s weird, usually I get screams, but you? You’re just laughing!”
ABFIOSKEAKFJF
AAAHHH IM DONE LMAO
I hope these weren’t too ooc, but I love Sonar!! Aaahhh!!! 😭🙏
ohhh you dingus dingus dingus. ily /p and thank you for the ask! this guy is SO annoying
🐾what’s a silly or strange habit you/they have when it when it comes to tks?
Obviously no surprise i think he stutters quite a bit from the nervousness of being tworded, but another thing is that I think he accepts his fate if he’s targeted. if you ask “are you ticklish?” he’ll just sigh a defeated “yeah.” If you tickle him he starts babbling and spewing nonsense and might back up against a wall or something similar but doesn’t fight back for the most part. why is he like this
🪐what kind of tks affect you/them the most?
Is it basic for me to say any? adding onto my touch-starved Waterboy headcanon i think he’s not very used to physical touch besides occasionally being beaten up while fighting a villain. If he’s just minding his business i think he gets very startled even if someone puts their hand on his shoulder or taps him from behind to ask him a question. i think light tickles but very fast will get him, like you dont have to be super right so long as you’re playful. also be good to him! don’t bully him! unless you like, want to. idk. your choice
💎Do you/they prefer sweet, cuddly tks or more playful/intense(/silly) tks?
Playful if you want to get him laughing, sweet/cuddly if you want to make him happy. I think playful tickles make him squeak-laugh and squirm but loving and cuddly tickles (such as with a romantic partner) would make him short circuit because ??? they don’t mind the water? they don’t mind him??
🌌what do you/they do in ler/lee moods?
i think he gets very anxious and speaks faster than normal if he’s in the mood for physical touch, also probably stares at others having a tickle fight in the break room for WAY too long (he’s not slick) this goes both ways btw—Lee or Ler mood i think he’s painfully obvious (though it’s Waterboy so the ‘ler’ mood in question is probably just trying to provoke someone or ‘prove himself’ which ends in him just getting his ass handed to him yet again. what else is new)
ooooh robert robertson you are sooooo ticklish. you talk all that shit but you have suuuuuch ticklish ribs and you have one of the hottest laughs ever and you are SO COOKED WHEN I FIND YOU ROBERT ROBERTSON
This guy is literally so hot, it's crazy the tickle community hasn't talked about him yet. There's zero content of him so this is for me and the 4 Sweetalker fans out there owo
Lee:
For someone who is quite literally thick-skinned, being a dinosaur and all, I can't imagine he's very sensitive
The best spot to target Sweetalker would probably be where the scales are soft, so the neck, chin, around the face, and the palms of his hands
A lazy finger or gentle skitters on those places would get a good chuckle out of him, especially under his chin
Can't imagine he's the type to go crazy with laughter when tickled
If you guys are dating, Sweetalker would just see it as a form of affection and accept it (while giggling of course)
He's a giant and it could be dangerous for him to wiggle and squirm too hard
Sweetalker would force himself to stay still, for the sake of your safety
"O-ohokay, you hahad your fuhuhun~"
In all honesty, he'd tease you for tickling him
"Dihididn't know you lihihiked hearing me laugh soho much~"
Ler:
This is where his more flirtatious and playful side comes out of him, it's even better when you're dating him. A total sweetheart with you
"For you baby, anything." and he means that
An odd request but one Sweetalker would gladly accept and do so endearingly smiling down at you
He would tease you for asking, but has no qualms about making you giggle until you can't stand
Sweetalker is conscious of his size and claws, so he wouldn't pin you down or anything of the sort
He's a very gentle but nimble tickler, a lot more dexterous than he looks, and can skitter at a considerable speed. Very torturous
He would just pull you in close, he wouldn't keep you there against your will, you're more than welcome to wiggle away
But that only means whatever happens next is because your reluctance (or rather 'refusal') to move away :3
He's a sweet tickler, who loves to see you smile and giggle. Expect him to tease you a lot while in his grasp
"Hehe, you're adorable, y'know that?"
"Don't get mad at me! I'm not the one who started it!"
"Come on, I want to see that smile."
Believe me, he's having just as much fun as you are, he likes making people laugh afterall
The moment you express discomfort, he'll stop immediately. In the back of his mind, Sweetalker worries he went a little rough with his nails (he's very gentle, but torturous lol)
Sweetalker doesn't usually tickle for long, casually, he might poke a fellow SDN hero and feign innocence. If not for a second, a minute max, he doesn't want to overwhelm you
~Finally back from medical issues land! Warning for footer tickles up ahead. This is a long overdue commission for the ever-patient @magasand22. Thank you for your understanding, and I hope you Enjoy!~
Gen:
You know Alice would be chill with tickling.
She strikes me as a ler-leaning switch. Alice is always ready to take someone down a peg (cough cough Flambae), but she doesn’t mind a laugh or two herself.
Lee:
43/100, not too ticklish. She does have a few decent spots, though good luck on getting to them (unless she lets you).
IMPERVIOUS to verbal teasing
She’s been conditioned by cyber-dickheads and haters to let words wash over her. You aren’t getting to her with any kind of talk unless she lets you.
Her lee moods are definitely on the rarer side, but they do happen. She can usually get Herm to help her with them (not that either of the two mind).
The whole team knows Alice is ticklish at this point, but few are willing to try and get her. She’s got a habit of turning the tables rather quickly if they do.
Worst spots are her hips and back. They get her snorting like crazy, especially if you have nails (as Malevola discovered). Feet are a lil ways behind them, but definitely still sensitive.
Favorite spot is her stomach. Alice adores tickly kisses there, as well as any kind of gentle tracing or poking. It feels so soft and domestic to her—something she isn’t used to receiving.
She doesn’t really fight while she's being tickled, but she’s definitely a wiggler. Miss ma’am CANNOT hold still, even if her life depends on it.
She’s got a really pitchy laugh, especially if you’re getting a bad spot. It jumps in octaves randomly, littered with snorts and a healthy handful of profanities.
You had better believe she wants aftercare as well. Alice knows what she deserves. Nothing makes her happier than a cup of tea or coffee (though she prefers the latter) and a good TV binge after some tickles.
Ler:
Alice has WAY too much fun messing with her lees (or victims, if you want to be accurate).
She puts her high charisma to good use, teasing the hell out of anyone she targets.
“What’s wrong? You’ve been runnin’ your mouth for the past half hour, and now nothin’?”
“Think I’m gonna have to show the team this. Don’t think I’ve ever seen you smile this much without makin’ problems.”
“Bad spot? Mmm, fuckin’ sucks for you.”
“Did you just try an’ kick me? Ohoho, you’re gettin’ it now, bitch.”
She knows exactly how to use her acrylics to her advantage. She has that sweet-spot for pressure refined to an art, and she puts that knowledge to good use.
Her most frequent targets are Chad and Herman. Anyone is on the table though, whether it be through a request or by being annoying. As you can probably guess, Chad almost always falls into the latter category.
Of course, she’d incredibly respectful of boundaries. If you genuinely want her to stop, she will, zero questions asked.
Aftercare is also a must for her. Alice isn’t letting you out of her sight without proper hydration and something to nosh on. If you’re up for it, she’s all for a care night with the two of you afterwards (as well as anyone else who wants to join in).
We’re talking face masks, nail care, soaks, and plenty of gossip yammering. Plus, home-made nachos and guac. She’s treating you to all the works because you deserve to be taken care of.
Tickle Analysis
“Are you ticklish?”
She’ll give you a look, but she isn’t too phased. It’s more curiosity than anything, with a slight hint of plotting. “Yeah, last I checked. What about you, huh? Think I could find out?”
If y’all are close to one another, she’ll just pounce after saying that. Otherwise, she looks for an invitation.
Spot Ratings
Underarms: 30/100, not very ticklish at all. You might get a few giggles out of her, but for the most part, she can hold back her reactions.
Back: 77/100, no way she’s able to hold still. Deep laughter, and you’d better believe she's arching away from every little touch.
Stomach: 55/100, lots of giggles. She’s a sucker for little kisses or pokes along the area. If you’re looking for a way to cheer her up, here’s your ticket.
Hips: 82/100, they are BAD. It’s near impossible for her to hold still, and she is strong. Good luck keeping her down.
Shoulders: 42/100, giggles here and there. She doesn't mind massages there, though you may catch her trying to hide a smile if you're gentle enough.
Neck: 34/100, only a few giggles here and there. She doesn’t mind massages or little scratches along her neck, and you may get some squeaks if you know how to get her.
Thighs: 47/100, she will kick you. Miss ma'am cannot hold her legs still if you tickle her thighs, even though they’re not that sensitive.
Knees: 20/100, barely ticklish. She’ll grin and try to kick you off, but you likely won’t get any big reactions aside from that.
Feet: 52/100, decently sensitive. She’ll fall into a giggle fit if you poke her soles a few times, though you may risk temporary (yes, temporary) blindness for pulling that stunt.
Map of Foot Tickle Zones
Arches: 56/100, lots of giggles and twitches. Alice can’t hold her feet still if her arches are being messed with.
Between Toes: 35/100, squeaky giggles are possible. Mainly teasing her with light tickles works here, feathers or tips of fingernails.
Under Toes: 35/100, same as between them. Fingernails are your best bet, alongside some gentle pokes to her soles.
Sides: 53/100. About as sensitive as her soles are. She’ll immediately start giggling if you trace along the sides, curling her foot.
Balls of Feet: 51/100, will make her stomp her feet if she can. Very kicky spot, so watch out.
Heels: 48/100, similar to the balls of her feet. Gentle scratches get her pretty good here, might get you a snort if done right.
Ankles: 40/100, will make her twitch her foot and shove at you. She can’t help but giggle if you flutter your fingers along them.
Soles Overall: 57/100, worst spot on her foot. She wears slippers all the time around the house for a reason (especially with friends as mischievous as the Z-Team).
Scenario: Help from Herman
Alice sighed, scrolling through her feed. She’d come across one of the few lee rants from those she followed, and it had put her in a massive lee mood.
She’d invited Herm over for the afternoon to hang out (and try out a new waterproof mascara she’d found), but waiting for him to arrive was agonizing. He drove like an old lady, and Alice was fresh out of patience.
When three timid knocks finally landed on her door, Alice leapt from her couch. Herm was standing in the apartment hall, dripping water onto her doormat. A small container of home-made cake pops sat in his hands.
“H-Hey, Alice, I made— Augh!”
The soggy superhero yelped as he was practically yanked inside, taking care to deposit his cake pops on the counter before letting Alice lead him to the couch.
“I-is everything okay?” he stuttered, looking up at Alice as she shoved him onto the cushions.
Alice hummed, settling onto the couch beside him like she hadn’t just dragged Herman around. “I’m fine. Need some attention from you, though. ASAP.”
Without another word, she flopped down onto his lap, lying on her stomach. Demanding tickles like that did fluster her a bit, but the fuzzy warmth in her chest was more than worth it.
A small “ooooh” left Herman as she relaxed, his smile softening. “O-oh, okay. You could’ve just asked, y-you know I don’t mind.”
Any remark Alice might have come back with was cut off by his fingers fluttering along her spine. The woman bit her lip, giggles already rising in her throat.
“J-juhust shuhuhutihit,” she grumbled, elbowing his thigh.
Herman huffed, biting his cheek at her stubbornness. She was always good at snappy comebacks, but he had a fix for those. He scribbled along her spine with both hands, making sure to put the tips of his nails to good use.
“HEHEHEY! HEHERMAHAHAN!”
The mascara testing could wait a bit longer…maybe an hour or two.
