My Steve Rogers Tickle Headcanons!
Sooo... nice weather we're having ain't it?/silly
I'M SUCH A CHUD MAN I AM SO SORRY!!1!1!! Technically, I've already made silly Steve headcanons before in my original Avengers tickle headcanons post but all those headcanons are CRAP, so don't read them 😭🙏🏽 Consider this a revamp!
Anyways, enjoy these Steve Rogers tickle headcanons! Written platonically, because why not, and STRICTLY sfw! Please keep that in mind! :)
Under the cut :)
30% Lee and 70% Ler. He's a Ler!
Lee:
- Meet Captain Steve Rogers. Strong. Righteous. Disciplined. Stern. The picture of a no-nonsense hero.
- Now throw ALL that slop out the window as soon as you raise your HANDS in his general direction. Welcome back Captain Tickle-Face 🫡
- He's a big underarms and belly guy. You can also get a few chuckles if you trace his fingers or palm. But the killer spot has ALWAYS been the sides!
- Even back in the day! Which is why Bucky, of course, had to announce to ALL THE HOWLING COMMANDOS that their captain is VERY ticklish on the sides and to do with that what they will.
- This led to lovely announcements such as: "If anyone is caught callin' me Captain Squeezy-Sides, Tickles, Laughs-a-lot, or ANYTHING of the sort, he can drop and give me FORTY. See how THAT tickles!"
- (Notice how Steve very easily says that word? Yeah, tough ain't he? NOT!! He still blushes when he says it 🙂↕️)
- The nicknames never did go away, though 😅
- Cuz they weren't wrong! While Steve LOOKS like a walking muscle, he isn't! His sides got some squish to them! And on the days when someone can really catch him lacking, he just SQUEAKS at any squishes there. And I mean he does it HIGH. Then he pretty much buckles over right then and there!
- The effect was even crazier after the serum. Especially since he has a lot of stretch marks there. If anyone slightly BRUSHES that spot, he's down for the count.
- But now, I believe it is time to begin the soft lee Steve appreciation minute 🥹
- You will NEVER be able to tell when Steve is in a lee mood until he knows he's about to get tickles. Before that, he just looks like he's thinking, when actually, he's elbows deep in a tickle daydream. But when you approach...? That's when he cracks.
- He gets all red, and tries to hide his face, but doesn't want you to know he's FLUSTERED so he also DOESN'T hide his face, but then he doesn't know what to do with his hands, so he just starts flapping them and tapping them against things, and you KNOW he's excited but HE won't be telling you that and just- yeah it's a lil bit sweet 😭
- His first instinct is to just say "HUH?" Over and over and play dumb. Steve, I know you're old but you have SUPER HEARING buddy. If you can "HUH" you can HEAR 😒/SILLY
- And the closer you get to him, the more he just melts away into honest stuttering.
- "Ihihi ahahadmit ihit, ohohokay!? Ihihi ahahadmit ihihit! Ihihi'm tihihicklish! I ahaham- reheheally ihihit's n-noohoho bihihig deHEHEHEHALL-"
- "SHIHIHITTT Tahahahat's mhyhyhy tihihickle sphohot! Tahahat's mhyhyhy tihihickle sphohohott!!"
- He's also SUPER squirmy and rolls ALL OVER THE PLACE. So, he's picked up the habit of finding something to hold, so at the very least, he doesn't accidentally punch you in the face. He's very courteous as always ☹️.
- And when all is said and done, he is just melting against you with a little "thanks for that" and rubbing his cheeks to try and get all the red out.
- For the rest of the day, people can ALWAYS tell that Steve's been got because he's holding his sides like he's physically trying to hold his silly self upright and, like, ugh. I love him ☹️☹️☹️
- But now... cracks knuckles. It's time for the second part of this post.
Ler:
- And I thought he was a dork before.../silly/aff
- Who even INVITED this dude?! Who thought it was a GOOD IDEA to invite the tower's resident tickle monster?!
- Because yes, that IS his proper title and Steve is friggin' PROUD of it!!!
- It pretty much started as Steve warming up a lot to his new friends, and you and the rest of the Avengers realizing that maybe Steve isn't that serious after all!
- And this REALLY showed when Steve started tickle-wrestling people when they started to mess with him. You mess with Steve, he messes with you back! Thems the rules!! 🤷🏽♂️
- Everyone quickly learned that if you heard the phrase "Oho, so you think you're funny/cute/smart?" It was time to either run for the hills or SQUARE. UP./J
- Cuz Steve doesn't play with his tickle monster status! He has UNLEARNED shame. He is an ACTOR. And YOU try living his life and going through all that BS. Nah, if he's gonna do something, he's gonna do it right and make sure everyone is having fun while he's doing it. Got nothing to be ashamed about in his life 🙂↕️
- This is a long-winded way of saying that you will catch this grown man using a soft DUMB silly stupid voice or actually pretending to be a monster. Sorry not sorry!!/silly
- And honestly, for that first part, he's not even trying to do that. His cuteness aggression is just through the ROOF when he gives tickles!
- "D'awwwhahaa… Lookit you… Ah, ah, ah... Just where do you think you're goin’, Giggles? Don't you even try ahahand hide that smile, now! I can still see it, y'know!"
- It comes to a point where he actually has to stop for a minute because HE'S DYING.
- Like I said. Who. Invited. Him?
- Now, for my final kicker before we move to wind-down time, let me tell you about my biggest Steve Rogers tickle headcanon to ever Steve Rogers tickle headcanon.
- This man LOVESSSS the "keep your arms up" game. It is absolutely chef's kiss to him 😙
- "Keep your arms up for a good ten seconds. Then maybe I'll believe you're tough!"
- Steven Grant Rogers, you keep YOURS up for FIVE first! 🙄
- But seriously he loves it ☹️.
- "C'mon! C'mon! Keep ‘em up! Keheheep them uhuhup! Yohohou gohohot ihihit!"
- And if you bring your arms down, he is totally pretending you have trapped his fingers into your pits. So now he can't move them out of there! Guess he's just gonna have to keep them cosy and in place until you move your arms back up...
- Bucky's right. He IS a punk/aff
- But even with that, he never forgets to care for you after the fact ☹️
- Always makes sure you're brushed off and comfortable, and felt safe and happy the whole dang time.
- Will be offering you as many after-tickle hugs as you want. What? He loves them! Only fair you get the same 🫂
- But still, not without a good hair ruffle and a smirk, just so you know the tickle monster is always around the corner ^^
BUT ANYWAYSSS enough with my self indulgence, that's all I have for you guys today! Wrote this spontaneously in one sitting. No plan, just yap. Hope it wasn't TOO obvious, and all three of the Lee/Ler Steve truthers and anyone else who tuned in liked it! Like genuinely, thank ya'll so much for reading my silly stuff!!! 😅😅😅
