GRIAN T-WORD HEADCANONS
[this is SFW Tickle content]
I know the majority of t-word headcanons I've seen on Tumblr is just Grian, but I PROMISE I will post others as well :]
• lee-leaning switch
Ler:
- mischievous lad; loves to give little pokes and see people's reaction
- common targets: Mumbo, Scar, Pearl, Ren, Iskall, Jimmy
- likes to tickle Mumbo the most 'cause of how cute and flustered he gets (and his laugh too, it's his favorite thing)
- Pearl's like his sister, so they often have tickle fights that end in them rolling around on the floor. Neither of them want to back down so the winner is usually whoever isn't still on the floor
- his main goal with tickling is to see others loosen up and laugh (and also to find their most ticklish spots, hehe blackmail /hj)
- mostly catches people by surprise when they don't expect it or when they're trying to be tough / serious
- when his tactics fail to make someone react *cough* Doc *cough* he gets all pouty, but tries even HARDER to figure out where they're ticklish (shenanigans ensue)
- If someone closer to him is feeling down, sometimes he'll hold them in his chest/lap while gently squeezing and tracing their sides, even brushing his soft feathers against their neck or tummy
- (if they're his partner he'll also give them lots and lots of kisses)
Lee:
- as much as he likes to tickle others, even a poke in retaliation makes him crumble instantly
- common lers: Scar, Doc, Mumbo, Pearl, Etho
- (I dunno why I picked Etho, it just feels right. I think Grian would not stand a CHANCE against them, but also have a fantastic time and be giggling to himself about it later)
- he doesn't know how to ask for tickles when in a lee mood, he just becomes extra clingy and tries to provoke others into tickling him so he doesn't have to embarrass himself
- (spoiler alert, everyone can tell when he's doing it to get tickled back. Some give him what he wants (Mumbo) and some make him ask for it (Doc))
- he cannot HANDLE teases, he gets extremely flustered and tries to hide his face
- even if he's not being tickled yet, the anticipation (and teasing) makes him giggle so much
- top spots: sides, back, neck, wings
- I see Grian as a sensitive sides man
- his neck is much more ticklish to softer tickles, and perhaps maybe even his own feathers? 👀
- speaking of feathers, his wings flap a little when being tickled
- he only trusts certain people to tickle his wings cause they're so sensitive (and also cause his birdy instincts don't want just ANYONE'S hands in his pretty feathers)
- normally he laughs LOUD, and might squirm a bit if you get him by surprise (if not, he usually tries to stay still the best he can despite his instinct to wiggle around hehe)
- if he's given soft tickles he melts and coos while giggling up a storm
- he LOVES ticklish kisses especially on the neck, he will become putty
I encourage you to ask if you want specific hermits / life series members to be given headcanons sooner :]
