SHUT UP I know this isn’t lore accurateSHUTUP I know I’ve done these two BEFORE idc TAKE IT.
“You want a sumo wrestling match?? With me??” Link chuckled cockily as he dusted his hands off. “Well of course I’ll beat you at a game you asked to play, Talo!”
Midna scoffed affectionately from Link’s shadow, observing & ready to offer a potential helping hand to the child’s rival..the rival being Talo, of course. She hoped her mischief wouldn’t be needed, until a certain familiar idea popped into her mind.
The two boys slowly circled around the ring, before launching themselves onto one another, pushing their opponent to the other side.
Talo soon realised he’d made a grave mistake—Link was going easy on him & he was still growing closer & closer to the edge of the ring!
Midna grumbled, getting bored of Link’s lack of effort & easy winning. She just had to interfere. The imp floated towards her new-found target & transformed her dark translucent hair into a large hand, which slowly skulked & latched onto Link’s exposed torso.
The fingers began to gently knead his skin, with the hylian starting to noticeably hesitate, his movements stiffening.
An uncertain grin began to grow on Link’s pink face, along with a few jolts & flinches as he stifled the giggles creeping from his mouth.
Midna whispered, “What’s the matter, Linky? I thought you planned on winning this match~” She giggled as he cringed in response.
Link tried desperately to hide his reactions for the sake of his dignity—& of course, for the sake of the match.
Talo suddenly began to lose stability & lightly dug his fingers into Link’s back for support. The ticklish sensation providing no help in ignoring Midna. Talo soon caught on, bringing his arms back & beginning to claw at his stomach.
“Don’t think—I wasn’t going to notice all that giggling going on, Link!” He grit as he spoke, determined to push his opponent to the other side. “You’re ticklish, aren’t you!”
The older boy yelped & folded, childish laughter now flowing through the air. He lost his footing as he giggled & flew his arms about, crashing onto the dirt floor & past the ring.
Talo celebrated, leaving Link to sulk in fluster & hold his tingling stomach.
“Ha! To think all it took was for me to tickle you! You really are easy to beat!”
“Okay jeez you don’t need to rub it in, Talo.” He pouted.
Midna smirked, poking his side & earning a restrained yelp. “Don’t be such a grouch, Link!” She snickered, not an ounce of pity for the boy.
After a short while of lighthearted bickering between Link & Talo, they both headed back to their homes.
The door closed, & Midna pounced onto the other, pushing him face-up onto the long bed in front of them with an oof. She needed to hear more of his heart-warming laughter, he was so easy to tickle & the opportunity was right there!! Who wouldn’t?
Midna spoke, “Gee Link, you really met your match there didn’t you~?” She giggled, suddenly skittering her fingers up his sides.
He squealed, arching his back, “shut uhupp!!”
“Oh, I must’ve touched a nerve just then!”
Link’s soft yet lively laughter sifted into his sentences, “Enouhough with the bahad puhuhuns!!”
“Hey, they’re not bad!! You’re just grumpy ‘cos you failed to hide how ticklish you are. Wasn’t my fault you were giggling your face off back there~”
His face flushed an even deeper red, revealing how embarrassingly well Midna’s teases were working. “Yohou- I wahahasn’t-!” She smiled smugly at Link’s terrible attempts of denial.
The imp lowered her head suddenly onto Link’s lower torso before blowing a giant raspberry on his bare stomach. He kicked his legs excitedly, cackling & inhaling short frantic breaths through his laughter.
He held Midna’s wrists weakly as he giggled, too weak to actually stop her but enough to make his point. (The point of “I love being tickled but I’m too flustered to admit it)
She spidered across his bouncing tummy & cooed at the endearing squeals she received, “Let’s go for an explore, I wanna know just how ticklish one hero can get~” Midna began to crawl her fingers up his sides, slowly growing closer to a spot he really wouldn’t appreciate her knowing about.
“Wahahait!!” He panicked before blurting out the first place he could think of, “U-Uh—hips!!”
She smirked before mercilessly digging into the ticklish bone, the boy squawking & erupting into loud, giddy laughter. Midna clawed evilly at the sensitive skin, poor Link couldn’t get a single word in through his uncontrollably cute giggles.
She blew another raspberry on his stomach, his laughter raising once more as he curled up in reflex, throwing his head back & snorting.
Midna halted in awe & affection, “Oh my god PLEASE do that again,” She squealed, “that was ADORABLE.”
“NOhohO *snort* it’s so bahahad!”
“There it is again! Aww how cute~”
“Ihit’s not cuhute!!!!” He squirmed & laughed lightly, moving his hands to cover his giggly face.
Midna ceased her attack, pulling Link’s hands from his face & grinning innocently.
