Warnings: Tickles, mentioned foot tickles, multiple lers, a bit intense toward the end!
Prompt: The Tokyo Manji Gang possessed a heartwarming tradition for every member’s birthday. As a rite of passage, each member—and significant other—would receive the same treatment on their special day!
“Happy birthday, Chifuyu,” Draken hummed, patting the boy’s head. He dropped a large, wrapped gift on the table in front of him, having carried the box with one hand.
Hina nudged Emma when the girl blushed, Cheshire-grinning at her. She recieved a flustered glare in return before she leaned against Takemichi’s chest. She stuck her tongue out at Emma, watching Chifuyu begin to open the gift.
The blonde boy smiled wide as he unboxed a huge goose plushie. His eyes sparkled, and he hugged it close. “Oh. My. GOD! Draken! I love it!” He chirped.
“I’m glad. I remember you saying how much you love geese. I saw this at the festival, and I knew I had to play for it,” the taller male reported, taking a seat next to Emma. He mirrored Takemichi’s previous action, opening his arm for Emma to lay against his chest. He kissed the crown of her head. “Happy birthday.”
There was a look of unbridled joy in the first division vice captain’s face. He held that goose like a lifeline as he begun to open other gifts.
“Geese your favorite?” Mitsuya asked, sitting down with a mug of tea.
“Oh yeah. They are like the most badass animal to ever exist.”
“Tigers are literally right there,” Takemichi rebutted. “Geese are my enemy. We don’t get along.”
“Maybe it’s cause you’re just a dumbass. I hear they’re prone to attacking those with low IQs,” Chifuyu hummed, smiling wide as he unwrapped a few games for his DS. He hugged Mitsuya tight before sitting back down in front of the coffee table.
Hina and Takemichi looked at each other, and the girl nodded with a determined smile, sitting up straight and allowing her boyfriend to stand up. She lifted Draken’s other arm, squishing against his side instead. “Get him, Takemichi!”
Draken snorted, patting her head. “Dunno if Takemitchy’s gonna appreciate you leaning on me.”
“He’ll be fine. You’re comfy; he’s about to kick butt; I’m ready to watch,” Hina chimed.
Takemichi cracked his knuckles with an evil smile. “You wanna run that by me again, Chifuyu?”
The blonde scrambled to his feet. “You can’t hurt me today! It’s my birthday!”
“You’re right, but someone’s due for his special Toman tradition gift, hm? Sounds like it’s time for someone to tickle you.”
A soft “ohhh” from Emma caused Hinata to look to both her and Draken and nod, smiling evilly. The two boys began having a standoff, running around the tiny coffee table in Takemichi’s living room. Chifuyu giggled like mad in anticipation.
“If you accept your fate, I’ll give you a bit of mercy! Only ten seconds!”
“Liar!” Chifuyu squeaked, dodging an attempted grab at his side. He scrambled, losing his balance and almost falling into the girls and Draken in the process.
Having sensed the danger before it even happened, Draken picked up his arms and caught Chifuyu. “Will you two dumbasses be careful?! You almost hurt Hina and Emma!” He glared at the two boys as Chifuyu got back on his feet. Turning to Emma, he looked at her with concern. “Are you okay, sweet girl?”
Emma nodded, completely shell-shocked. When Draken looked back at the scene before them, she turned to Hina, face flushed red as a tomato. Hina gave her an excited smile and a thumbs-up.
The two boys continued their stalemate around the table, running around the living room. Draken quickly ushered Hina and Emma to sit with Mitsuya, fully expecting another dangerous outcome. The girls barely had time to get to the couch before Takemichi jumped over the coffee table, causing Chifuyu to squeal and fall back onto Draken again.
“WAITWAITWAITNOOO!” He cried, blocking his body with his arms. “TAKEMICHI DON’T TICKLE ME!”
The other blonde smiled, panting a bit. He pretended to mull it over for a moment. “Fine. I won’t,” he hummed. He locked eyes with Draken and nodded. “But he will.”
Chifuyu barely had time to react before Draken’s fingers found his sides and tummy, poking and squeezing and fluttering.
“HYEAHAHA! NOHOHOHO!” He squealed, kicking his feet in the air.
“Oh yeah. You almost hurt Me and Takemitchy’s wifeys. Now Mitsuya’s keeping them safe.” He looked up at the girls and Mitsuya, smiling warmly when he saw them squished against his sides now.
“Ihihihihi dihihihidnt mehehehean ihihihit!” The boy whined, trying to grab at Draken’s hands. “Nohohoho!”
The vice commander merely hummed, poking around the boy’s belly button. Chifuyu sucked his tummy in and puffed it out, but Draken’s fingers were still unrelenting. “Drahahahakehehehen!”
“Hm?”
“Nohohoho! Ihihihi cahahahant!” The boy squealed.
“No? Maybe another place then,” Draken hummed, dragging his fingers up to Chifuyu’s ribs, resting them there. “Now let’s see… how old did you turn today?”
“F-Fifteen,” the blonde replied, panting with a dopey grin. “I’m fifteen now.”
“Hmmm… so we have twenty-four rib bones… So if two plus two is four, and five plus five is ten…” his fingers begun to tickle once again without warning. “That must mean I need to get at least fifteen of them.”
Chifuyu melted into Draken’s lap, squealing as he tried grabbing at the vice commander’s fingers. “Drahahahaken nohohohoho!”
Tickling without fingers is quite hard to do, Draken deduced. He grabbed Chifuyu’s arms and held them above his head. “Takemitchy, hold these for me.”
Now laid out, fully vulnerable, Chifuyu stared apprehensively at Draken, arms stretched above his head.
“You okay, kiddo?” The vice commander asked. When he recieved a nod, his wicked smile returned. He ever so gently curled and uncurled his fingers on the boy’s ribs, causing Chifuyu to squeak and giggle softly, butterflies invading his tummy.
Holding Chifuyu’s wrists in with one hand, Takemichi snaked his other hand down to attack the boy’s underarms. All over again, Chifuyu squeaked and squealed as he jolted, body arching off of the couch. Draken chuckled, dragging clawed fingers over the boy’s ribcage, counting aloud. The blonde laughed his head off, blushing just a bit.
“I think he likes it,” Takemichi cooed, making obnoxious kissy noises.
“Only one who likes it is you, idiot,” Draken rebutted, circling the boy’s belly button again. “Oh don’t you even try to deny it, Takemitchy. You’ve never once told any of us to stop.”
“Draken!” The time leaper hissed “Hina’s right there!”
“And?”
The casual conversation continued above as Chifuyu giggled madly below. He tried to move, toss his head around, bring his arms down, nothing. All he could do was laugh and squeak while the two argued and forgot about him. “Okahahahay! Sohohohomewhehehehere ehehehelse! Cmohohohon!”
The two blondes paused in their argument. “Somewhere else?” Takemichi cooed. “You sure?”
“Yehehehehes!”
“Draken, his hips are the worst. Why don’t you go ahead and—“
The time leaper didn’t get to finish his sentence before Chifuyu’s head was tossed back against the couch, deep belly laughs leaving him as Draken drilled into his hips. “Ooh! Bingo! You got it!”
Chifuyu squealed and snorted, deep laughter exploding from his chest. “DRAHAHAHAKEHEHEHEHEN NAHAHAHAHAHAOHOHOHO! PLEHEHEHEHEASE!”
“I think you’re right, Takemitchy, maybe he does like it. Think we should keep going?”
Takemichi hummed, nodding. “I think so too. And Y’know? I have a crazy idea…”
“Oh yeah?”
Goddamn it! Stop conversing so normally while Chifuyu’s losing his shit! It’s so embarrassing! With Hina and Emma still watching? And Mitsuya? Oh God! He’s never gonna—
“We’re heeeeeeere!” Mikey’s sing-songy voice sounded from the door. “We picked up four stragglers on the way too! Takemitchy, your friends wanted to—“
“Ohh! Kenny’s giving you the ol’ ‘Birthday Tickles Special?’ You better enjoy it! You’ll only get it once a year!” The commander cooed, handing his gift to Baji, who set it down on the kitchen counter. He rushed to the couch, kneeling down. “Want some help?”
“Oh yeah! We gotta make our birthday boy know how much we love to hear his laugh!~” Takemichi cooed.
The first division vice captain only blushed a deeper scarlet, snorting repeatedly. “NOHOHOHOHO!”
“Oh wow. He’s got great stamina. It’s no wonder he’s in Toman!” Mikey cooed. “Let’s see what you’ve got left, birthday boy!” He pulled out the hair tie holding up his bangs.
“Ohhh, Mikey means business, Kiddo,” Draken hummed, ceasing his assault on poor Chifuyu’s hips.
The boy took gasping breaths, giggling like a little kid. “I-I can—“ oh God don’t do it Chifuyu… “I can-I can take it!” Idiot.
“Hear that, Kenny? He wants us to try and make him tap out,” Mikey teased. He held the hair tie in his teeth, pulling all of his golden hair into a messy bun. He smiled, picking up Chifuyu’s sweater and moving it up to his chest. “You guys have been tickling him through his clothes? It’s like you were going easy on him. I thought your birthday tickles were usually rougher, Ken-Chin.”
“For you? Yes. No mercy for annoying brats like you,” Draken grumbled.
“Love you too, Ken-Ken.” The teasing lilt to Mikey’s voice dropped, replaced with his serious, scary voice. “Now, boys. Let’s give our birthday boy a day to remember.”
Draken and Takemichi grinned evilly before descending onto their tickle spots. Takemichi had taken the liberty to sit on Chifuyu’s hands, now using both of his own to tease the boy’s underarms. Draken’s rough fingers dug ticklish circles into the boy’s hips, and finally Mikey…
Mikey hummed, sucking in another breath. He blew another ticklish raspberry against Chifuyu’s tummy. “Nice abs, ‘Fuyu! You’ve really been working hard!” And another raspberry… and another…
“YOHOHOHOHOU GUHUHUHUYS! NAHAHAHAHAHOHOHO!”
“Oh my god…” Emma whispered. “You boys are ruthless.” Hina nodded in agreement.
Mitsuya chuckled, patting both of their heads. “Draken tickles everyone on their birthday. It’s like his second gift,” he reported. “As for Chifuyu, he’s not as weak as he might come by. He’s survived Baji’s tickling, and he doesn’t believe in mercy.”
Hinata shivered, snuggling closer to Mitsuya’s side. “Yikes… You have to be gentle with us girls if you ever tickle us, okay?” She said accusingly to the black-haired male, who had sat down moments before.
“Hmm… maybe. Now your hubby? He won’t get any mercy from me, that chicken shit,” Baji chimed.
“Oh yeah, Takemichi’s super ticklish,” Akkun reported, hanging on the back of the couch.
Yamagishi, Takuya, and Makoto nodded. “Yep,” they replied simultaneously.
“Interesting…” Baji hummed.
Meanwhile…
“He’s lasting a while. I wonder what’ll make him crack,” Draken hummed, still relentlessly tickling Chifuyu’s hips.
Chifuyu’s joyful laughter rang around the room. He pounded his fist against Takemichi’s butt, squealing and snorting. “NOHOHOHOTHIHIHIHING! IHIHIHI CAHAHAHAN TAHAHAHAKE IHIHIHIT!”
Wrong answer…
Baji huffed, standing up from the couch. One by one, he tapped the three ticklers, each stopping one by one. “Observe,” he merely hummed.
Chifuyu caught his breath, messy hair clinging to his red face. His chest heaved, tummy jittering. “Is that all you three got? I can take it! You forget, I’ve survived—“
Two fingers pinching his knees caused the boy’s eyes to widen. He kicked his legs rapidly, tossing his head back and all but screaming. “BAHAHAHAJIHIHIHI! NOHOHOHOHO!”
“Baji yes! Happy birthdaaaaaaaay. You didn’t think I’d let Draken tickle you alone, hm?”
In a flash, the other three continued on their spots, which promptly drove Chifuyu up the wall.
Mikey blew one more raspberry before patting Chifuyu’s tummy, pulling his sweater down with a smile. Baji stood back up, as did Draken. Takemichi carefully got off Chifuyu’s wrists, and the boy curled in on himself, giggling softly.
Mitsuya stood up, picking up Chifuyu with a sigh. “Told you. Five seconds tops,” he hummed, cradling the panting boy.
Hina and Emma returned to the other couch, snuggling up to their respective boyfriends.
Mitsuya held Chifuyu gently, patting his back. “You done good, kid,” he praised. “That was pretty brutal. I would’ve been done myself when Mikey joined in.
“Yeah… s’okay. I had fun,” he hummed tiredly. He stuck his tongue out at the four boys who had taken him to an inch of his life previously. “At least Mitsuya won’t tickle me.”
“You’re right,” Takuya hummed.
“But we will!” Akkun chimed.
A new set of four descended their fingers onto ticklish spots. Four pairs of fingers descended on his neck and ears, his tummy, his feet, and his shoulders. All over again, Chifuyu giggled like a little kid, grateful for a bit of a break from his more ticklish places.
Each person in the room would receive their due when their day came, but for today, it was about Chifuyu Matsuno: the current birthday boy.
The blonde’s melodious laughter would sound often at the party, adorning tv shows, conversations, and party games. With gifts opened, cake consumed, and a goose plushie in his arms, Chifuyu snuggled up to Baji, a content smile on his face. “Thanks for the best birthday ever…” he hummed to the room, closing his eyes.
Aaaaaand the peace was ruined when Baji decided it was his turn to give the birthday boy his second gift…
But this was so fun to write omg I hope you like it!!!
Warnings: Slight cursing, tickling!
Summary: Baji notices Chifuyu getting flustered as Draken starts tickling Mikey, which lets him find something out about his fellow friend…
Mikey, Draken, Chifuyu, and Baji were all hanging out in an old abandoned motorcycle garage they found a few weeks ago. It was a place they loved going whenever they were bored.
They were just chatting about random shit when Mikey said something that pissed Draken off and next thing they knew, Mikey was pinned down and was being tickled absolutely shitless. “NOHOHO DRAHAKEHEHENN” Mikey squealed as the larger teen hit a sensitive spot in his stomach.
Baji chuckled at the scene occurring in front of him. He looked at Chifuyu next to him to see his reaction and was surprised to see him looking semi flustered. “Chifu what’s wrong?” Baji asked his younger friend. Chifuyu seemed to snap back to reality again “nothing!”
Baji looked at him skeptically. He knew something was off. Chifuyu would never get flustered like that for no reason. Baji looked at the scene in front of him again, by now Draken seemed to be slowing his hands down to give Mikey a break. Baji then looked back at Chifuyu and realization smacked him like a ton of bricks. But since he wasn’t sure of anything he decided to confirm his suspicions.
“H-hey!” Chifuyu flinched as he felt a poke to his ribs, immediately slamming his arms down to protect himself. Baji smirked at this reaction bingo. Chifuyu noticed his friends smirk “what..” he asked cautiously. Baji just wiggled his fingers at him in response and Chifuyu, wide eyed, immediately took caution to the wind and attempted to scoot as far away from him as he could. But unfortunately he didn’t make it far because Baji, who had much quicker reflexes, had pounced like a lion on top of him.
“B-Baji I know what your thinking but please don’t.. aHAh-“
Baji had cut him off by tasing a finger into each side of his ribs. “Bahahajihihi stohohohop ihihihit” Chifuyu pleaded. He was grabbing at his older friends wrists but was unable to dislodge the fingers. “Awww is someone ticklish??” Baji teased as he went further up to his armpits. “NohAHAHAHA BAHAHAHAJIHIHI STOHOHAHAPPP PLEHEAHASE!!” As Chifuyu tried to glue his arms to his side.
Baji stopped (much to Chifuyus luck) but he did the worst thing he could possibly do next. “Hey Mikey! Draken! I think we got another ticklish member!! Wanna help??”
Mikey and Draken had been watching the whole time but came over only just now. Draken grabbed Chifuyus hands and was trying to force them over his head. Chifuyu attempted to strain against it but failed as Draken was way stronger than he was.
Now his whole upper body was completely defenseless, and Chifuyu was all too aware of this fact. “Baji please let me go” Chifuyu said as he squirmed around desperately, but had no luck moving too much. Baji just chuckled and began digging fingers into his friends armpits again.
“NOHOHOHAHAHA BAHAHAJIHIHIHI DOHOHONTT!!!” Chifuyus squirms renewed as he tried getting his body away from the fingers, despite being hopelessly pinned down.
“Dude you’re so fucking ticklish how did we not know this before??” Baji asked incredulously. “Yknow,” Mikey said “my older brother used to have this tickle spot riiiight here..” And Mikey began drilling his fingers into the space where his highest rib met his armpit and Chifuyu went crazy “NOHOHAHA NOHOHOHOT THEHEHAHAHEHER!!!” Tears glazed the edge of his eyes as he tried to move his body away from the fingers, but he was failing miserably.
Eventually Draken let go of Chifuyus arms, while Baji and Mikey ceased the attacks. With Baji still on top of him, Chifuyu panted and tried to regain his composure, his arms glued to his sides in case they decided to land more attacks.
“Your so ticklish what the fuck…” Mikey stated in awe. “Oh shuhut uhup” Chifuyu said weakly, a few remnant giggles slipping out as he said this. This earned him a jab in the stomach and he flinched “oHokahahy yohohu wihn I’m sorry!!” He tried fightingoff Mikeys hands.
Heyaaa can i request smth tokyo revengers? Like a scenerio where Baji is still alive and he, chifuyu, and kazutora are friends. Basically Chifuyu was bored a being a little sh!t so as punishment Baji and Kazutora just double team him and tickle Chifuyu to tears.
Is that okey?
Give it back!
"Kazutora! Have you seen my hat!" Baji barged into Kazutora's room with an annoyed expression on his face.
"No, have you seen my jacket? I swear I had it yesterday." Kazutora replied with a shrug.
After a few hours, the two recognized some more of their stuff had began to disappear. With only one other person in the house being Chifuyu they went to him to question him about it.
"Oi Chifuyu! Our stuff has been going missing, have you seen it-"
Baji paused as he looked at Chifuyu who was trying to hide stuff behind him.
"W-Wait Baji, Kazutora it's not what you think!"
Kazutora smirked as he began walking towards Chifuyu.
"Baji I think this little thief deserves a punishment"
"I agree!"
With that they both lunged at Chifuyu and tackled him onto his bed.
"Wahait! Thehere's no need fohor this! Guhuys nOHO!"
With that Kazutora held up Chifuyu's arms while Baji started scribbling over his sides.
"Actually there is a need for this!"
"Yeah! Stop. stealing. our. stuff"
While saying that Baji switched to scribbling all over his stomach which brought out more hysteric cackles out of Chifuyu.
Kazutora, being bored with just holding his wrists up, decided to let go of his arms and dig his thumbs into Chifuyu's ribs. Not expecting the extra pair of hands to begin tickling him, Chifuyu squealed trying to clamp his arms down to his sides.
Both Kazutora and Baji paused temporarily out of shock of hearing the squeal come from the said boy and proceeded to tease him about it.
"Holy shit! He just squealed!"
"I know that was so cute!!"
"SHUHUHUT UHUHUP!"
Chifuyu tried to cover his red face while curling into a ball to get away from the unbearable sensations shooting through his body.
Baji pulled him back and began digging into his hips.
"You're not going anywhere!"
Wwith that he began to nibble at Chifuyu's stomach while squezzing at the muscle above his hip. Chifuyu screeched before falling into deep belly laughter.
"BAHAHAHAJIHI NOHOHOHOA! KAZUHUHUTOHORA WAHAHAIT!"
Baji and Kazutora could see their friend reaching his limit so they eased up to rubbing away at the spots they were just tickling. Chifuyu melted into the touch as he began to fall asleep. Once he was asleep, Baji and Kazutora took there stuff and left a letter on Chifuyu's desk that said, "If you do it again, It'll be worst :)"
Maybe he wanted to do it again, but it definitely wasn't the last time he would do it.
Baji knew that being in a gang—and being so high up in command in said gang— would mean a loooot of trouble. He knew that it meant coming back home with a shit ton of bumps and bruises very frequently. What he didn’t expect was how bad it would affect him when he saw his friends coming back banged up.
First, it was Mitsuya. He had gotten into a tousle with some grunts from Valhalla over something minuscule. He won, no doubt, but Baji remembers him being unable to turn his head to the left for DAYS.
Then, it was Draken. Him and Mikey had run into some third years on their way back from lunch. They beat them with minor injuries, but Draken took a huge blow to his head to protect Mikey. Baji remembers him being unable to leave the couch for a good few weeks.
And now?
His heart shattered as Chifuyu dragged himself through the door of Takemichi’s home, where they all were hanging out that day. Baji’s loud gasp turned everyone’s eyes toward the beaten blonde. “Chifuyu…”
The boy was riddled with scrapes and bruises, some cuts still bleeding, others coated with caked-on dry blood. He was gripping his shoulder and limping a bit, his whole body shaking.
Big-Bro Mitsuya was at his side in an instant, kneeling down to his height to help him shrug off his jacket and remove his shoes. No words were exchanged between the two, only a terrified look from the white-haired boy as he examined every inch he could take in with his eyes.
“Chifuyu…” Mikey’s terrifyingly calm voice sounded as he appeared next to the duo, “What the hell happened? Tell me… now.”
Sighing, the younger boy hung his head low slightly. He seemed to be ashamed of himself and his actions. Chifuyu didn’t speak as everyone stared at him, merely trembling instead. Baji stood from the couch he was on and tapped the newly opened seat. “Let him sit.”
The stares never faltered as he dragged himself to the couch—with help from Mitsuya and Mikey of course—and smacked himself face down on the fluffy piece of furniture, sighing loudly in relief.
“Chi’ you look awful… will you please just tell us? Or even if you wanna whisper and just tell me?” The long-haired boy knelt down beside him, carding his fingers through the unkempt puff of blonde hair.
He buried his face into the cushion and uttered two words: “high schoolers.”
Takemichi gasped quietly. He had fought high schoolers? And lived to tell the tale?!
“Chifuyu, what in the fresh hell were you thinking?” Draken’s stern tone did not help to hide the evident concern lacing his words.
Chifuyu picked his head up, resting it on his forearms, his speech still a bit distorted. “I couldn’t help it, promise! I was going to the convenience store on the corner to get us meat buns; but before I went inside, I noticed this girl. An aisle over were these three high-schoolers, watching her every move through their peripheral. She looked uncomfortable, so I went to ask if she needed to be walked home, and she said she would like that.”
The group waited with baited breath for the story to continue.
“As soon as we walked out, they began to follow. She lives near here, so I made sure to take the confusing route. Y’know, the one by the bank?” The boy grimaced as he readjusted his position, shaking Baji’s hand off his head (to which the brunette took no offense.) “Even then… every single damn turn, they were ten paces behind us. Finally, I called out to them and told them to ‘leave my girlfriend and I alone.’ Stupid, I know.”
“Doesn’t seem stupid to me. I’d’ve done the same,” Mitsuya hummed from the kitchen, engrossed in the cabinet, pill bottles rattling as he rummaged around.
“They obviously didn’t believe me. They noticed my jacket and jumped me before I could even get another word out…”
“And the girl?” Mikey asked, anxiety hidden on his tongue. Everyone knew that Mikey was quite serious about the belief in his gang members respecting any female that entered their lives.
“I panicked and pulled a Takemichi,” the blonde confessed.
“…Meaning?”
“I turtled.”
A snort from Draken helped to lighten the mood a bit, but all were still listening nervously to Chifuyu’s tale. “I kept apologizing for being on top of her, and I felt terrible for putting her in such an uncomfortable position, but I just threw myself over her as a shield. I was so worried about her that I just let myself get the shit kicked out of me.”
Takemichi leaned forward attentively. “How did-“
“By the grace of the gods, your friends were passing by to go to your house at the time. Akkun managed to knock one of them square in the jaw, and that let Yamagishi sneak in and get the girl out from under me. Him and your other two friends rushed away to get her to her house. Akkun and I fought like hell, and thankfully we managed to take them down… not without me taking a couple more blows first.”
At that moment, Mitsuya returned from Takemichi’s kitchen. He placed the contents of his hands on the glass table in front of the couch, mirroring Baji’s knelt position. “Draken, you’re closest. Please, help sit him up.”
The tattooed male nodded and carefully placed his hands on each side of Chifuyu’s torso, the boy whining as his body was moved. “I know… I know… Mits’ is gonna fix you up.”
Pain medicine was administered, water was consumed, as was a very small amount of a chocolate chip granola bar. Soon enough, the injured boy was laying flat on his stomach again, with Mitsuya holding a small tube in front of his face. “Now, Chifuyu. Someone’s gonna help to put this on your back. Who do you-”
“Baji.” Zero hesitation was heard in the blonde’s voice..
Mitsuya handed the tube of icyhot to Baji, and hooked his fingers on the corners of the boy’s shirt. “Are you ready?”
“…”
“Chifuyu?”
“Its gonna scare you… I’m sorry. It looks worse than it is. I swear.”
The back of Chifuyu’s shirt was pulled up. His once soft, unblemished skin was riddled with scrapes and bruises, along with four large, red boot marks.
“Oh Chifuyu…” Mikey whispered, “how long were they hitting you?”
The blonde whined as he hid his head. He turned it, however, when he felt a small puff of air on his cheek. Baji had blown on his face to get his attention, not wanting to touch his dearest friend without his permission.
“Are you ready? I’ll tell you what I’m doing every step of the way,” Baji waited patiently for the response.
“Please just… be gentle?”
“I always am.”
Truth be told, this was not the first time that Baji had had to help Chifuyu take care of his injuries while the boy was completely out of commission. He always knew to warn Chifuyu before he did anything, because the blonde had always been jumpy and scared of touch after a fight.
“Okay, I’m going to go on your shoulders first,” the brunette explained as he rubbed some of the medicine between his hands. “Here we go. One, two, three.” He lowered his hands into his friend’s shoulders and began to slowly and delicately rub against his skin.
Chifuyu sighed a bit and relaxed after his body realized it was just Baji. He closed his eyes and relished in the warm touch, some of the pain in his shoulders starting to dissipate.
“Okay, I’m gonna go in a bit harder to get some of your muscle and joint pains away. Ready?” A silent nod allowed Baji to apply a bit more pressure.
The deathly, intensely quiet room was suddenly filled with gentle giggling from the boy on the couch, causing most of the others to smile.
“Ah. So you’re ticklish here too,” the long-haired male quipped as he continued to massage.
“Shuhuhuhut uhuhuhuhup.”
“Tell me when you’re ready for me to move down to your back.”
Chifuyu shook his head. Despite the unbearable ticklishness, the massage truly was helping his shoulders. “Nohohohot yehehehet.”
Baji couldn’t help but smile at his dear friend, thankful that he was at least still able to smile. Chifuyu’s sweet giggles continued to cut through the tension-filled air.
“Ohohohokahahahay. Yohohohou cahahan mohohohove.”
The brunette hummed in response, putting a bit more medicine on his hands. “Down to your upper back in three, two, one…” As his hands traveled downwards toward Chifuyu’s ribs and mid back, the boy writhed a bit as hit laughter increased in volume.
“Am I the only one who thinks that this is kinda adorable?” Takemichi dared to whisper to his friends, receiving shaking heads of agreement in return.
“Bahahahajihihi.”
“Mmm?”
“Dohohohont stohohohop.”
“Wasn’t planning on it.”
“Ohohok-hyehehehahaha- Ohohokahahay.”
The medicine was long since properly rubbed in, and both boys knew it, but Baji would not stop until Chifuyu asked him. His hands massaged around his upper and middle back, the boy’s laughter growing every time they snaked near his ribs.
Baji put more medicine on and paused, suddenly remembering a moment that they had shared in the past. “So… I have to put this on your lower back… do you want to go somewhere more private for this?”
“I’ve lost my dignity anyways…” he sighed, pondering,” who cares if they see?”
Baji snorted. “Okay, going to your lower back in three, two… one…”
As soon as Baji’s hands began to gently rub, Chifuyu squeezed his eyes shut and his face returned to hiding in the couch.
“I know, I know. I’ll make this quick.”
“Juhuhust dohohoho ihihit.”
The brunette sighed as he put a bit more pressure. The injured boy’s head shot up so he could slap his hands over his mouth. “PFFAHAHA. BahAHAHAjihihi!”
“You said you didn’t mind, and now look at you now.” Baji’s hands did not move from their massage, working a bit slower than usual to rub in the medicine. “It’ll only get worse from here, giggles.”
“stahAHAHAP teheheasihihing mehEHEHE!”
Baji chuckled a bit as he tactfully rubbed in the medicine, fighting the urge to let his fingers sneak around to tickle more. If Chifuyu didn’t give him the okay, he wouldn’t dare to touch him anywhere. So, he worked with what he could and how he could.
Ah, Chifuyu had had enough. Baji smiled a bit, retracting his hands. “Yep, all finished. How do you feel?”
The blonde braced himself on his hands, trying to lift himself up. His arms shook with effort, face planting back onto the couch not long after.
“Careful, Chifuyu,” the long-haired male ordered, “do you need help?”
He sighed, “yeah.”
With the greatest of care, Baji lifted a grimacing Chifuyu into an upward position once more. He quickly moved to sit behind him, letting the boy rest against his chest and between his legs.
“Anything you need, and you ask us, okay?”
“Mhm.”
“Nothing is inconvenient for us. We don’t care if we have to get up every five seconds; you. come. first.”
“Anything for our white knight,” Draken quipped.
“Anything…?”
“Anything…” Mikey replied, reaching forward to take his hand and run his thumb along the base of the boy’s own.
“Does that mean we can watch Ponyo?” The blonde asked with hopeful eyes.
The rest of the boys chuckled.
“We can watch Ponyo until we’re blue in the face. Do you want some more of your granola bar?” Mitsuya cooed as he stood to his feet.
“Mmm mmmnn. Ponyo first and then-“ a yawn ripped from his throat as he leaned back against Baji. “‘Nola bar… later…”
So, there they all sat, Chifuyu “watching” Ponyo with a content smile. (In reality, he would last about fifteen minutes into the film before falling asleep) Baji watching “Ponyo.” (In reality, he was so worried about Chifuyu that he could last about a minute before checking on the boy again.) The others copying Baji’s actions.
As soon as the blonde had fallen asleep, the collective sigh of relief from the group was audible. They continued to actually watch the film, sneaking reassuring glances on the sleeping first-division vice captain.
Hours passed, and Takemichi decided to just have the boys spend the night at his place. The sleeping blonde re-adjusted his position to rest atop of Baji’s chest, the long-haired male’s arms caging down to hold him as if he was guarding him from all of the world’s evils.
Baji tickle hcs
~Lee~
-OKAY OKAY SO HE ACTS LIKE TICKLING IS CHILDISH AND JUST BRUSHES OFF THE QUESTION BUT HE IS DECENTLY TICKLISH
-I feel like people would be to scared to try to tickle him or her would just straight up punch them.
-He gets ganged up on by kazutora, chifuyu and mikey a lot
-When I say a lot once they found out he was ticklish he had to be on guard at all times
-I personally think his knees are his worst spot
-And I feel like the kind of egg crack motion absolutely murders him
-he's not very easily flustered, he actually provokes the ler a lot and taunts them through laughter
-the only person he gets flustered by is chifuyu because hoo boy can he not take compliments
-he'd try to hide his face but it never works because once someone starts tickling him, his arms clamp to his sides and don't move from there.
- he and kazutora have the most intense tickle wars
~Ler~
- He is actually a very gentle ler with certain people but other than that he is ruthless
-HE CAN BABY TALK SO WELL IT'S UNFAIR
-He's overall also very teasy
-He loves doing tickle bites and nibbles and Chifuyu who is a frequent victim to his attacks can confirm, they are DEADLY
-He also likes to laugh along with his Lees
-If you tickle him do it until he is tired or he will immediately get revenge like pls-
-GREAT AFTERCARE THO
-Takes care of the Lee, gives them cuddles etc etc.
-Overall just a giant softie
