[smilinsilly]

something self indulgent for today as a comeback lol.

tickle headcanonns forrrr...

some of my favorite honkai star rail characters!!!

The Herta

Lee

herta doesn't really like to be tickled overall, she gets annoyed with physical touch quickly

as a lee however, she will let out a giggle or two, however she's typically not ticklish most normal places

Ler

as a ler, herta goes to TOWN.

when she's close with someone, she will sometimes poke them during funny interactions until they start laughing, then eventually the tickling ensues.

big BIG on revenge,,, loves to get people back for getting her first

tickles using her long nails,, or perhaps a contraption she's created, yk as the genius she is lol

Aventurine

Lee

Aventurine is a huge lee,, this man's will tickle just to be tickled BACK.

ticklish on his neck, sides, ears, and kneecaps,, but also tbh everywhere LOL

strikes up tickle fights with ratio allll the time,,,

always wins said fights, he's the best switch on town!!!

likes to be tickled woth soft things, nothing too harsh or torturous, just wants to have fun

makes him feel loved!!!!

Ler

as I mentioned, he's a huge switch. loves to ler just as much as lee.

likes to sneak up on others,, alot

he's extremely teasy,,, uses cute voices and little diatractors to his lees

will go from one spot to the other or or orrr both spots at ONCE ha.

if someone asked for tickles this man would do it.. no questions asked

Cipher

Lee

quite literally loves it. not an abnormal amount id say? but it's something she finds fun considering her personality

not extremely ticklish-- more of a ler definitely but her spots tend to be her neck (it's hidden behind that hood for a reasonnn/silly) and probably literally anywhere else LOL

playful lee-- likes to be a brat and make it hard on the ler

teases back 100%

y'know how her voice changes octaves? her laugh does too

Ler

THE baddest ler in all the cosmos

will actually pounce attack like cats do

uses her nails to her advantage holy shit

very sneaky, much like aventurine. likes to surprise people and tackle them

a very "loud and proud" ler, makes it everyone's buisness LOL

brags about the tickle fights she wins to all of amphoreus

that's it for now!! sorry for my absence!! please feel free to send requests for anything TADC or hoyoverse <3

I couldn't figure out how to end it so have my idiots being idiots

“C-Cipher! Waitwaitwaitwahait!” Luke pleaded, slowly being backed into a corner by his pink-haired cultmate, a few of the others watching on as they approached him.

“Do you have to do this to everyone, dude?” Peter asked, though his expression was more amused than anything.

“Trust me, they do. It’s been their thing as long as I’ve known ‘em. And I’ve known ‘em a long time,” Hopkins answered for their friend. “It’s their initiation ritual into their friend circle I guess? They’ve done it to everyone they’ve befriended to my knowledge, it goes surprisingly well.”

“Do you think they’ve ever done it to the leader?” Caramel queried.

“I believe that even Cipher knows it’s a bad idea to do something so demeaning to the leader,” Sylvester pointed out.

“‘Demeaning’, see, this is why they haven’t even tried with you,” Hopkins grumbled in response.

“G-guys! Help me out! Do something!” Luke called, catching the attention of the others, who turned to see he’d managed to lock hands with Cipher. They were pushing back against his resistance, nearly pinning him to the ground as he fought a wobbly smile.

“Just let it happen, Luke, you know they won’t hurt you,” Joy advised him with a small smile of her own.

“N-noho way! I’m way too ti-... uhmm…” the redhead caught himself before he said the dreaded word, catching the excited spark in Cipher’s eyes.

“That just means your laugh is gonna be even cuter!” they said, having filled in the blanks already. “Lemme getcha, c’mon, just a little! I gotta hear it, at least!”

“No you don’t! You just want to!”

“Well, you NEED to laugh a little, so my point stands! Just a little, I promise!”

“... One minute,” Luke finally conceded, “You have one minute.”

Cipher nodded excitedly, agreeing to the condition, and slowly Luke relaxed his grip on their hands. As soon as he let go, they struck.

“ONEMINUTESTARTINGNOW!!” they yelled as their hands quickly slipped away from Luke’s and darted down to claw at the redhead’s ribcage, pulling bright squeals from his throat.

“CIHIPHEHER!! Wahahait!! Nohot thehehere! Ihi-it tihihickles soho bahahahad!!” he protested, grabbing Cipher’s hands, resisting the urge to push them away against the buzzing, tingly energy that felt like it was filling his whole body. Instead, he kicked out behind him, clumps of dirt and grass catching on the low heels of his sandals.

“Ohh, but your laugh is so cute, Luke! I was right! I always am; the more ticklish someone is, the cuter their laugh is!” they cooed, giggling softly at the laughter-filled whine Luke gave in response.

“Plehehease! Ihi’m gohonnahaha dihihihie!! Cihihipheheher!!”

“Ahawww, Lukey, you’re not gonna die! I know it feels like you are, trust me, but you’ll be just fine!” Caramel assured him with a light giggle.

“Dohon’t lahahaugh ahat mehehehe!” he complained, rolling onto his side in the grass, as if trying to deter Cipher’s hands, as he covered the growing blush on his face.

“Alright, Cipher, I’m pretty sure it’s been a minute. Let his poor, giggly tail up,” Hopkins finally butted in with a smile of their own. With a quiet groan, Cipher let go of the younger cultist, watching as he struggled to stop giggling with a smile on their face. After a few more moments, he calmed down enough for Joy to help him to his feet, keeping him steady as he got out the last of his giggles. 

“How’s your scar feeling? Laughing that much might’ve fucked with it a little,” Sylvester asked as Luke finally stood straight.

“I-it’s fine, don’t worry, though I could use a bit of water…” he admitted, and sure enough, Sylvester was off with a quick ‘On it.’

“So, how do you feel, lil’ dude?” Peter asked their ‘apprentice’, putting an arm over his shoulder.

“Honestly, I kinda feel better. It’s… kinda nice to just chill out and let go a little. I can’t actually remember the last time I did that,” he admitted, earning a little happy whoop from Cipher.

“The power of laughter strikes again!” they cheered, throwing their arms in the air, before pulling them back down with a squeak as Hopkins poked their side.

“I will admit, a healthy release of endorphins like that will help him heal properly,” Sylvester pointed out, returning with a small cup of water, which it handed off to Luke, who mumbled a quiet ‘thank you’. “And it might even help his mental health if it becomes a regular occurrence. We all know he needs it…”
