XLOV Tickle (Lee and Ler) Headcanons!

Hello! These are my tword headcanons for XLOV, I'll reference these in the fics I write :P Lee Wumuti: - Has the prettiest laugh ever omg - Hands move straight to his face to cover his smile and muffle his laugh - Has zero resistance to it. Even wiggling your fingers at him makes him giggle - Also can't handle teasing, which is surprising for the amount he dishes out. - As much as he wants to, he can't bring himself to dislike it. Thinks about being tickled for hours after it happened. Ler Wumuti: - Very verbally teasing. - Coos, whispers, giggles, even sings at his lee - SPAMS compliments. Talks about how pretty the lee's laugh is, compliments all their tickle spots, tells them how lovely the experience of tickling them is. - So gentle and careful - INVENTED cheer up tickles - Genuinely loves to ler. - Worst spot is his belly, back, and under his arms Lee Rui: - He tries to pout and look angry so you won't do it. Don't fall for it. - Has more resistance than Wumuti but it's still pretty dang low - Very squirmy, won't sit still unless held still - Embarrassed about his laugh, the members love it. - Glares when it's over, he'd never admit he enjoyed it. - Worst spot is his sides Ler Rui: - So mean, oh my gosh. - Playfully annoying, loves the repetitive teases like "Tickle tickle tickle" - Dramatic and theatrical, makes a show out of tickling his lee - Evil chuckles. Smirks. - "Oh?" and "Mhm~" when he makes discoveries... - Will tickle someone for attention. - Definitely a revenge tickler, be careful~ Lee Hyun: - Dramatic. Loud. - Fake cries between his laughter so someone will stop or go easy on him - Extremely ticklish, sometimes the drama is a reasonable reaction - Begs and tells the ler to "wait" a bunch of times - Snorts between laughter - Laughs out of embarrassment for his own reactions too - Prone to tearing up if he laughs too hard - His worst spot is his belly and hips Ler Hyun: - Playful yet fair - Frequently checks in with his lee. "Is it fun? Do you like it?" - Smiles so wide, giggling the whole time he isn't teasing - Loves the cliche tickle games - Likes walking his fingers up the member's arms, backs, and tummies - Doesn't even try to hide the fact he likes it either - Whines and pouts when they don't play with him - "Just let me tickle youuu!" Lee Haru: - Laughs so easily. Even just tracing and poking makes him giggle and curl away - Squirms, wiggles, thrashes, he will NOT keep still! - Talks and begs through his laughter - Silent laughs and tears up - Teases take a while to work, but when they finally do, he becomes a shy melty puddle. - Despite being so ticklish he really likes it. He finds it to be fun and a great way to play with the members! - He's ticklish all over, but especially his belly, armpits, and ears/neck Ler Haru: - Mischievous little fox. - Very sneaky, surprises members with tickle attacks and raspberries. - Mostly baiting for revenge - Also tickles others out of boredom or in competition - It makes him feel powerful lol - Pretends he's not doing anything, looking away despite his hands still being on the lee. - WILL ask why they're laughing / what's so funny - Big reactions surprise him, it's the only time the mischievous and playfully evil act falters. "You okay?" Some bonus stuff ^^ - Wumuti wins the most tickle fights. Hyun loses the most. - The only one that can get away with tickling Rui is Wumuti. Even though Wumuti doesn't mind NOT getting away with it. - Wumuti placed a dorm rule, no tickling Jinhyung past a certain time because he laughs too loudly LOL - Hyun will use another member as a shield if someone approaches with tickly intent. The shield is usually Rui ! <3 - Haru's ler moods are feared by Rui and Hyun. Wumuti just thinks it's cute, and might let him. - Rui has tickling spidey senses. Has to because of Haru and Hyun's poking habits! He'll whip around to look at them before it even starts with a glare or warning eyebrow raise. It doesn't work, they get him anyway <3 Thank you for reading!! Bye (˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶)

Relaxing After Practice (RuiNene)

Summary: Rui and Nene return home after a long day of rehearsals and Rui notices that Nene might be a little sensitive...

Word count: 1,287

Relationship: RuiNene romantic

Ler: Rui

Lee: Nene

It was a very warm day at the wonder stage and the group was preparing for performance they had the next day. Tsukasa and Emu played the role of evil bad guys, while Rui played the role of a hero rescuing princess Nene

“Get back hero! You won’t be able to get the princess back!” Tsukasa shouted with Emu following his lead

“WAHAHA! That’s right hero!~ you don’t stand a chance!~” Emu had shouted out with her sword held high into the air

“Thank you all, that was great you guys~” Rui clapped his hands as Nene followed behind him

“It’s pretty rare that the star of the show is an evil villain, but I think I got the act down pretty well!” Tsukasa said, proudly raising his fist to his chest

“Is that all for today? It’s getting late, and we should get some rest for the big show” Rui asked the troupe leader. Before Tsukasa could answer Rui, Nene spoke up and approached the group from behind Rui

“Could we practice that one part… where Rui picks me up over the wall?” Nene asks as Rui turns to her

“I don’t see why not… we can stay here and practice a little more~” Rui kissed Nene's forehead as he looks up at Tsukasa and Emu

“You guys can head home okay?” Rui said with his sly tone. Both Emu and Tsukasa agreed and waved goodbye before walking out of the stage as the sun was already setting

“Don’t stay up too late! Make sure you guys get rest as well!” Tsukasa looked back and shouted at the 2 of them as he waved goodbye with the pink bundle of energy next to him. Rui turned back at Nene was who looking at the ground fiddling with her thumbs

“Is something wrong? Normally you wouldn’t wanna stay longer” Rui crouched down to his knees to look at Nenes eyes. “At this time normally you’d run home and force me to play some kind of game with you am I wrong?~” Nene looked up and smiled

“Yea… everything is okay… I just- wanna try that part again if that’s okay…” Nene said sheepishly as Rui stood up and kissed the top of her head which made the green haired nerd blush.

“Of course it is sweetie~” They both stood up and took their positions. Rui, the hero in the play, had to lift up Nene, who was playing the princess, so that she could climb onto the top of a wall so that she could be safe from the villains below

“Ready?” Rui said as Nene nodded her head with a small smile on her face. Rui ran up to Nene and grabbed her right on her sides, which made her body jolt as a giggle escaped her mouth. The sensitive green princess couldn’t grab the wall because her hands were clamped down on top of Rui's

“You alright?” Rui said turning to Nene with a concerned look on his face

“Y-yeahehe! One more time…” Nene knew why she was giggling so much. She wanted to perfect this singular moment since it’s an important scene but it seemed because of how sensitive her body is, it’s holding her back

“Alright~ one more try then me and you are going home fufu~” Nene groaned and blushed at the tease before she got into position

“Action!” Rui said as he ran up to the princess and grabbed her. Nene felt a shock on her stomach and giggled as she just barely grabbed onto the wall

“Great job Nene!~” Rui grinned up at Nene before he grabbed her hand to help her get down the wall, as the hero kissed the top of her hand Nene ran into his arms

“Thanks for helping… my hero…” Nene said in ruis type of teasy tone that would drive him insane, the hero tried his best to look into his princesses eyes without being caught too badly into her gaze

“Your welcome my princess~” Both of them changed back into their casual clothes and started to walk home as the sun set across the horizon

“Such a pretty scene…” Nene looked up smiling as Rui followed her lead.

“Not as pretty as you~” Rui cooed into her ear.

They were perfect for eachother. Nene knew she had romantic feelings for Rui but was too scared to say anything. Rui was also hiding his feelings behind his sly grin but ended up falling harder for her. When they finally returned home they both layed down in Ruis bed with Nene’s head on his chest. Rui wrapped the blanket around them and gently massaged his princesses head.

“Tired?~” Rui said looking down at Nene with his grin. Nene shook her head up and down and clung to Ruis shirt.

“Sorry for messing up so much…” Nene said looking down. Rui gently took her chin and tilted her head up so she would look at him

“You know if you have to tell me anything you can right?~ I’m right here~” Rui sat up as he layed Nene across his lap.

“It’s just…! It’s embarrassing to say…” Nene tried to find the courage to tell Rui but the look in his eyes told her that he knew why

“I know~” Nene found Ruis hands gliding and slipping under her shirt as he started taping on her bare stomach

“R-Rui?!-“ Nene started giggling as she felt Ruis hand glide around her exposed stomach. Rui grinned at the poor girl and started to draw circles around her belly button

“My princess seems to be a little… ticklish~” Rui whispered that last word in her ear as he began to use his nails to lightly tickle the soft skin

“Ruiiihehehehe!” Nene squirmed and wiggled trying to free herself but Rui had one of his legs keeping Nene in his lap as he dragged and spidered his fingers all across Nenes stomach

“Coochie coochie cooo~” Rui whispered into her ear as he continue to delicately wiggle his fingertips right over her tummy

“Pleasehehehehehe ruiiihehehehe!” Nene tried slipping away, huge mistake. Rui turned over and sat on her hips as he pinned her hands above her head with one of his hands. Nene tried desperately to squirm but couldn’t contain her giggles as she knew what was gonna happen next

“Such a cute little princess~” Rui moved his wiggling fingers to her underarms making sure his touch was gentle yet affective.

“RUIHEHEHEHEHE P-PLEASEHEHEHE!” Nene kicked her legs and swung her hips trying to shake Rui off

“Oh?~ your pleading with me for more tickles?~ be my guest~” Nene realized what she had said and turned beat red in the face. Rui tickled all over her body and landed at her hips. Nene tried to free herself from the princes grasp as she couldn’t stop giggling from the ticklish sensation.

Rui squeezed and tickled all around her hips, gently whispering all the tickle teases that make her turn red in the face

“Tickle tickle tickleee!~ coochie coochie coo~” Rui teased into her ears as he placed ticklish kisses all across her tummy while spidering her sides

“M-MERCYHEHEHEHEHE!” Rui saw his princesses face and knew it was time for a break. He moved her head onto his chest and pulled the blanket over the both of them

“Hehe~ was that good endurance training?~” Nene thought about it for a moment and hesitantly agreed and shook her head before yawning and shutting her eyes. Rui kissed her forehead and whispered into her eat

“Goodnight my princess~ I’ll see you in the morning~” Rui massaged her head to make sure she was asleep before yawning himself, slowly shutting his eyes and drifting off to sleep.

Summary: After Rui shows up uninvited and refusing comfort, couch cuddles quickly turn into an easy remedy.

My @squealing-santa gift for @marloloweler!! (really hoping I got the new url right) So sorry this took a sec to get out, it was an awful combination of technology issues, health issues and memory issues, but I hope you enjoy it nonetheless. It's past holiday season, but I hope you have a fantastic rest of January!

Coming over now! Hope you’re not busy :) <3 

The text she received from her boyfriend was not exactly uncommon. Rui was unpredictable at the best of times and Nene was grateful that the only real shock was his company. Comparatively, it was at least expectable. 

There were, however, pros and cons of living so close together though, she had hardly had time to quickly tie her hair up and make it to the living room before Rui was walking into it, looking more than a bit disheveled. His eyes were visibly more tired, complete with heavy bags under them and a forced relaxed expression. 

She raised her eyebrow. “Rui, when was the last time you slept?” 

“Oh, my dear it is truly so good to see you too!” He smiled sarcastically. 

His girlfriend was not impressed. “I’m happy to see you too, but you know what I meant.  Seriously, what’s going on? You look like a mess.” 

“Am I at least a handsome mess?” 

She glared at him and sat on the couch. Rui could feel her scathing stare from across the room. 

"Rui come here." She motioned to the couch, exasperated. 

"What is 'here' exactly?" He scrunched his eyebrows in faux confusion. "I mean I am here with you in that we're in the same room. I don't understand what else you're asking of me." 

Deflection. Nene naturally noticed immediately. Why couldn't he just let himself be taken care of?! "Rui Kamishiro, I swear to whatever is out there if you don't sit on this couch right now-!" 

"Okay, okay!" He held up his hands in surrender. "You don't need to be so demanding." 

Nene felt slightly guilty at her tone only until Rui swung a leg over and perched himself atop the back of the couch, feet on the cushions and a smug expression on his face. 

Without another word, she yanked on his leg, causing him to lose balance and fall right on top of her. The couple was a tangle of limbs and frustration, both moving to adjust to something even marginally more comfortable. 

After a few moments of wiggling and turning, they eventually settled with Nene laying nestled into the couch, her back to the back and her head on the armrest with Rui facing her chest in his arms. 

"If you're not going to tell me what's wrong, at least let me hold you for a little bit." She rubbed her back in a way she hoped was soothing whatever turmoil was in his head.

"Nothing is wrong!" 

"Wanna try that again?" She asked sternly. 

A look. Something on his face was mischievous and maybe a little... Eager? Anything was an improvement from before she supposed but it was definitely an unexpected change. 

“Not particularly, but thank you for asking.” And with a cheshire smile, he dug his hands into her ribs, right in front of him. He squeezed at random, leaving her guessing. 

To Rui’s delight, Nene instantly screamed. “You never were a giggler were you, sweetie?” He caught himself smiling right along with her. 

She shouted his name through her squeals and what might have been pleas. “Let me help you- you- you immature, stubborn-!” 

“Loving, kind, beautiful, intelligent man that you happen to find yourself in love with?” He suggested, earnestly unhelpful. After a moment though, he withdrew his hands. 

“Darling, I know I can be… difficult when it comes to receiving comfort, but I assure you all I need right now is your company. A distraction, I think, is best. You’re helping just by allowing me into your home and presence” His hesitation and rare lack of that infuriatingly endearing smirk made his claim substantially more believable. She knew him well enough to see the sincerity in his words. Sometimes stress and exhaustion was simply that. The best thing she could do for him was take his mind off of it. 

“And tickling me… helps you?” She tilted her head at him. 

He at the very least had the decency to make himself appear apologetic. “It’s more being playful and having fun with you. I just love to see you smile.” 

An idea burst into her head. What he needed was smiles and distraction, and what she needed was a happy boyfriend and maybe a bit of revenge. Two birds, one stone. 

Hesitantly, she started to poke at his sides with an impertinent air. “What if I did this, huh? Would you like it? Is this your idea of fun? This is what you did to me!” 

His cheeks immediately puffed up and eyes squeezed shut with repressed giggles and no response. 

“What’s that? Did you hear me?” Each poke was now accompanied by a little wiggle or scratch. He wasn’t pushing her away. A telltale sign. “I asked if you liked this! Are you too tired to talk? Tell me or I’ll stop!

What came out of his mouth was less words, more high pitched squeaking. 

“Your face is all red! Do you have a fever? I can’t understand what you mean by-” She did a poor but teasing impression of his squeaking. 

Just as Rui was about to attempt to compose himself, she blew a raspberry right into the crook of his neck. The floodgates burst open as he broke into real laughter. “Neh-ne! Hehe! I’m so-sorr-” 

“Oh you’re sorry now? You weren’t sorry when you did this.” She, much in the way he’d done to her sides, dug her fingers into his underarms. “To me.” 

Yet another similarity to their previous roles, Rui screeched and continued to plead. “I see the error of my ways! I’ve suffered enough!” 

“Suffering? You seem much happier than before, at the very least more relaxed.” She pulled her hands entirely away, relishing his immediate change from giddy desperation to disappointed pouting. “But maybe I’m wrong. Maybe we should just sit here and do nothing.” 

Almost as if instinctually, Rui grabbed her wrists and pulled them closer to his body, his eyes exposing what would be a novel’s worth of begging for her to continue.

Nene simply responded by holding his hands. “This is nice, isn’t it?” She smiled knowingly. 

His pout intensified, even as his girlfriend reassuringly squeezed his hands.

“Y’know, looking at me like that isn’t going to do anything for you.” She mindlessly ran her thumb over the back of his lithe hands, continuing even after he let go of one, resting his own around her waist. 

Wordlessly, Rui reached his newly freed hand between them to poke at her stomach.

She squawked at the surprise before managing to pull herself away, burrowing herself backwards, further into the couch, halfheartedly glaring at Rui, who was looking far too pleased with himself. 

“You know, dear, looking at me like that isn’t going to do anything for you.” He repeated her own words back to her face, with a suddenly chipper demeanor, almost as if out of nowhere.He continued to poke sporadically, trapping her further and further into the plush folds of the couch. “What are you going to do about it?” 

Nene was stuck in between a rock and a hard place, or, more accurately, a cushion and a couch. On one hand, she could give Rui the satisfaction of letting herself be goaded into tickling him. The other option involved her getting tickled to death or suffocated in a couch. Death might be preferable if she really thought about her wisenheimer boyfriend in a self superior mood for too long. 

Luckily for them both, the assault on her belly didn’t leave much room for thought, only action. In a bout of strength that would have shocked them both had Rui actually been trying to fight her, she pushed at the hands long enough to wedge her body from her plush prison and straddle Rui’s waist. Nene looked dangerously down at him, all while he continued to prod, keeping her in a constant state of jolting and squealing. 

Exactly as she predicted, his face was radiating with the joy of his achievement. She rolled her eyes at him. “You’re nahat subtle- hehe-!” 

“Subtlety can be forgone in cases in which the alternative is still effective, no?” 

“Whaht are you even saying?” Nene laughed through her words, both from the tickling and fondness for the man under her. 

But just as he started to explain, she decided she didn’t particularly want to hear it (and maybe wanted to rush in) and rapidly squeezed his hips, rendering him unable to speak through waves and waves of laughter. 

Still not forgetting the original reason behind his visit, however, she asked, “How’s this for a distraction? Happy?”

“HAHAHA-ha-happyHEHE!” He agreed, the cackling around it speaking volumes more than the answer itself. 

She smiled to herself . Whatever made him happy.

Fun fact: This was actually my SECOND piece with the prompts, I have a half baked Polyshow one that I got such bad writers block on that I started over with a totally new idea. I'll tag you, marloloweler, if it ever sees the light of day. Apologies if this is a little rusty, it's been a sec.

[creative-kny-fics]

Hii!

Can I request a Lee!Zohakuten with any ler?

(When I say any I mean any. It could be like Gyutaro or something for all I care)

pls

.if not just ignore this!

Ooooh, I like this one! Sorry it took so long 😔

Ler: Rui (LowerMoon 5)

Lee: Zokahuten (UpperMoon 4)

The appearance and age of the demons was very confusing. Some looked at an age that was not correct, others were at the age at which they became demons and others, despite their advanced age, looked so young...

'I didn't know that Muzan-Sama had turned another child into a demon...'

'A child? Oh, Zokahuten? Hah! He only has the appearance, he is an old man', Rui raised his eyebrow in question.

Really? He knew that Akaza was one of the few "honest" demons, but, Hazotuken, that's what he said his name was, right?

No, wait, Zokahuten, yes, that's what he said, anyway, that demon looked young, he looked like a child. And if he wasn't, why was he wearing some kind of bib?

'Oh, Hantengu-San's age?' 'I thought his name was Zokahuten'

'Hehehe well little demon, he has many names! His BDA is amazing, don't you think? It can go from one to four! But, oh right, the question, if I'm not mistaken, he is around 400 or more years old, yeah, something like that, I hope that helps you!'

'Thank you, Douma-Sama...'

Well, that left him more doubts than answers. What did he mean by "go from one to four"? Did he multiply or divide? It was strange...

You will surely say that, for a demon, those questions are irrelevant, but remember that Rui, internally, is still a child, and like every child, he is curious, what did it matter if he was a demon, physically and, in part, mentally, he was an infant

Rui's curiosity about Zokahuten grew, it was something strange, maybe he was drawn to his appearance? His BDA? His distance from the others? Who knows, maybe it was everything.

'Kid, may I know, why have you been following me lately?', wow, that was fast.

'Well, it's just that, I've never seen you, I think, are you an UpperMoon?'

'Yeah, although maybe you haven't seen me because the real emotion is an old man crawling and I only come out when he requires protection'

'So, you're like some kind of older brother?'

'Eeeem, sure, whatever you say kid'

Rui's eyes sparkled, a brother who is willing to protect? It was a genuine bond, definitely, although, on second thought, wouldn't they be the same person?

'Hey, kid, what's wrong with you?'

'Stop calling me kid, I have a name and it's Rui.'

'Well... Rui... What's wrong with you? It's not like I care but, forget it, it's not worth it'

Record your words well Zokahuten, because when you least expect it, that will change.

'How did I end up here? How fucking annoying, damn it, I don't know if Karaku or Urogi were the ones who agreed to this, but I don't like it anymore'

'What's wrong with it?'

'Nothing. Now, if you don't mind... GET ME DOWN'

Oh yes, a tender moment (in quotes) between "brothers", of course, it wasn't exactly something enjoyable, but it was fun.

Since he became a demon, Rui discovered that he had a taste for being up high, he liked it, he felt so powerful and had an incredible view, childish things.

'It's okay, you can get down, anyway, I've already seen the landscape for a long time', finally, thought Zokahuten.

They got down, but Zokahuten felt, bad? If you could say it, he couldn't explain it, he felt a hint of remorse, damn, it was surely Aizetsu...

It didn't make sense, he was a demon, why did he feel that way? Although of course, he's a demon of emotions, oh fuck.

'Eeeeh? What are you doing?'

'Carrying you, isn't it obvious?'

'And what's the reason for that?'

'You stay quiet and I'll keep carrying you or I'll put you down and you can talk all you want. It's your choice brat', hey, treat the kid right.

Rui felt comfortable, it was comforting, he wasn't going to lie, he felt calm, he felt protected...

Few demons had managed to make him feel that way, as a human, he never had a brother or sister, but once he became a demon, he felt that, not with his spider family, but with some of the demons.

'Thanks, erm, I don't know what else to say, you took me by surprise...'

'Yeah yeah, shut up, if you say anything else I'll throw you out'

'You don't seem to mean it...'

Zokahuten growled, he wasn't going to deny it, he wasn't heavy, he was calm, he was used to the fights of the 4 clones and he felt it more like a release from not having to take care of a group.

Rui smiled and looked at him, he didn't know if he had seen well, but Zokahuten's horns were, red?

'Your horns, have changed color?'

'What? What the fuck are you talking about? Why are you talking in the first place? Shut up, I'm not going to deal with it.'

Well, who could resist touching them, how did they turn red? Were they somehow related to his feelings?

Wow, Zokahuten had more secrets and Rui wanted to find out. 'He-hey!'

'Does it hurt?'

'N-no, but i-ihit feels we-wehehird, your fingehers are co-cohold, don't do tha-hahat you damn brat,' yep, Rui definitely wanted to keep touching them.

Zokahuten couldn't do anything, in the first place, he didn't even know what was wrong with his body, why did he feel like that?

His horns were transmitting a desire to smile and laugh, how the hell was that possible?

'Ru-Ruhui..'

'You laughed? Wow, how strange. So you're ticklish?'

'Whahat do I ha-have? Don't tahahalk nonse-hehense, I'm not "ticklish", I don't e-eheven know wh-what thahahat is!'

'Me neither, but I've seen Daki and Gyutaro doing this many times, also Douma with Akaza, so...', well this was either weird or ridiculous or didn’t even make sense, how was this even possible?

First his horns are ‘tickly’ or whatever that shit is called, now, the UpperMoons also have the same reaction?

How inconceivable, and why the fuck did he allow Rui to keep doing this?! He didn’t like it, did he?

‘Ruhuhui..!’

‘Heh, the more you think about it, the more ticklish you seem to get, should I stop?’

‘Ye-yehehes! Uuuugh, what a strange feeling’, aha, yeah, ‘strange’.

Zokahuten sighed, but, internally, he wanted him to keep going? It wasn’t a bad feeling but, damn what was wrong with him?

‘They’re still red’

‘CAN YOU STOP LOOKING AT MY HORNS?!’

‘Do you want more?’

Zokahuten looked at Rui seriously and dropped him to the floor, calm down, Rui is fine, and Zokahuten, may have some problems, only if Rui decides to continue or chooses revenge.

HAPPY (late TT) BIRTHDAY KAI @emiefluff !!!!!!

Thank you for being my first moot, friend, and collab on this app!! You inspired me to start playing HSR and I’m so glad I had someone to share the Project Sekai experience with!!!!!! Your writing is so soft and fluffy and your hurt/comfort fills me with yearning 💕💕 You’re always so silly and it’s been a joy to meet you <3 /p

I know I'm late I’m so so sorry, I couldn't finish it before your bday bc I got sick and I was high on NyQuil, and then I wanted to change like everything that I wrote, but here we are!!

ALSO I LITERALLY could not decide between MizuKana or RuiNene. I went with RuiNene (you may recognize this draft. Or you may not) and this is so sappy and cringe, they're troubled middle schoolers here what can I say 😭 Hope you like your awfully belated gift!! (I have the MizuKana one in my drafts, might post it later)

♡ ♡ ♡

Nene stared at the side of Rui’s head, listening to his fingers tap on the green wooden table. The smell of ash seared her nostrils from the kitchen adjacent. Slowly, he turned to face her with a sideways expression.

“Sorry, Nene.” He pulled his fingers through matted purple hair, snagging on tangles. A smile crept guiltily onto his face. “I think I burned the rice.”

Nene just sighed and pushed her laptop out of the way. “It’s okay, Rui.” She really shouldn’t have trusted him with such a complicated meal. Especially after seeing his attempts to modify the rice cooker.

“Ah, at least we still have lots of soda candy!” He threw a handful at her as if they were rose petals.

Nene managed to catch one, which was impressive enough. “We must be doomed to never eat healthy.” Fidgeting with the wrapper, she freed the candy and touched it to her tongue, letting it fizz on her taste buds.

Rui laughed, rather pathetically, and his eyes trailed down to his lap. Nene glanced at him, then down at her homework, worrying her lip.

Rui was… well, Rui was as usual, these days. He used to be the only person Nene could talk to comfortably, now the air was cold and heavy, even with him.

She knew Rui had a hard time feeling normal. Even now, in middle school, his classmates still thought he was eccentric, dangerous even, and it was getting to him. Nene could feel he was slowly fading. Or maybe it was she who was drifting away.

Either way, what they were had changed since she joined her troupe, and she was lost on how to help him.

Nene stood to throw the candy wrapper away, passing behind Rui’s chair. She’d never been so conscious of the space around her in his house; it had always felt like an extension of her home.

The tension must have affected Rui too, as he fussed with the strands of hair that had escaped his short half-up ponytail. He pushed them behind his ear, only for them to fall into his eyes again. After watching him struggle for a few beats, Nene huffed and pulled his hand away.

“You’re getting it messy.” Combing through knots that had coiled around the hair tie, Nene gently loosened his ponytail. She put the tie around her fingers and started to gather his hair in the back.

Rui stilled at her touch, and his hands settled in his lap. “Thanks, Nene.” His leg bounced against the weirdly colored tiles that Nene had always made fun of.

You should take better care of your hair. The remark stuck on her tongue. Of course. I care about you. Nene’s mouth felt dry. All she could manage was a weak hum.

The silence dragged on. Nene began to question what she was even doing, clammy hands only mussing up Rui’s hair more.

As she pulled some of the wispy hairs on his nape into the bundle, Nene’s nails skated across his neck unintentionally. A yip and a shiver from Rui alerted her.

“Sorry, did I scratch you?” Nene shifted to look at Rui’s face. His eyes were squeezed shut and his mouth crooked. When Nene dragged a finger over his ear to tuck a hair behind it, he made the same squeaky noise.

As though a door had opened and a fresh breeze swept into the room, a smile pulled at Nene’s lips. “Aw, you’re still ticklish?”

Rui’s eyes popped open with a look of mild fear. “Uh… no?” he said, like a liar.

“Uh huh. Sure.” Nene flicked her nails up and down his neck. Rui jolted like he’d been shocked.

“EEHehey! Neneheaha!” he shrieked. He hiked his shoulder up to his cheek and tried to reach for Nene’s quick fingers.

Nene chuckled by his ear; Rui’s real laugh was far more boyish than his personality would make it seem. “I forgot how much you sound like a fox.” She wormed her fingers under the collar of his shirt, making him yip again and proving her point.

“I dohohon’t! Ahaha Neneehee! Nahat the eheahahears!” He shook his head, melting against the back of the chair.

Nene sighed fondly. “I’m just talking, Rui,” she breathed while she leaned in closer to his ear, now red and warm. “Your ears are too sensitive.” He wailed and rubbed his ear on his shoulder.

Nene’s hands scaled down his spine and crawled between his shoulder blades. Rui barked and jumped, scrabbling for her assailing digits and pleading for a timeout. Nene ceased only when he threw his head back over the top of the chair, and she was exposed to the full display of his broad smile and rosy cheeks.

Becoming aware of the smile that had grown on her own face, Nene quickly wiped it away.

Once Nene unhanded him, Rui slouched forward until his head landed on the desk. “Ha… Nene, you’re crueler than you look.”

“Sorry.” She rested her hands on the back of Rui’s chair. “I guess I just haven’t heard you laugh in a while… I missed it. A little.”

Rui hummed, surprised, and Nene felt her face grow warm. “Is that so?” He sat up and turned around to grin at her. “Hehe, the same goes for you!”

“Huh?” Nene tilted her head.

Rui wiggled his fingers, so childish but somehow… “I haven’t heard you laugh in quite some time either.” Rui dug into her sides, squeezing and squishing. Electricity that fizzed from his rough fingers like soda candy shocked a squeak out of Nene. She curled into herself and dissolved into bubbling giggles.

“N-Nohoho! Ruhuhihihi!” Nene lightly gripped Rui’s wrists, trying to squirrel away from the hands scribbling up her sides. A fuzzy feeling flooded her nerves as she squealed and laughed more heartily than she had in a long time.

“There it is, the laugh of a little mermaid.” A cat-like smirk lifted Rui’s face. “Are you still ticklish here, Nene? Here too? Oh wow, I’m barely moving my fingers and you’re laughing!”

“AHAhaha! Ruhuhihi you suhuhahahuck!” Nene shoved at his face and kicked at his knees. She managed to hit him once, and he winced as though really in pain.

“Ow ow ow, that hurt!” He pouted ridiculously. “You’re such a meanie, Nene.” Evilly, he kneaded his fingers into her ribs, and Nene squalled and tightened her grip on his wrists.

Her face was warm with joy, and her ribs were starting to hurt from her laughter. “You’rehahaha the mehehehean one! PffftaHA hypocrihite!” Her knees buckled and she fell to the ground, finally escaping Rui’s evil fingers.

Heaving in air, Nene clutched at her ribs. Rui laughed at her from above.

“You’re winded already?” Rui smiled. Nene whacked at his leg.

“You’re, hah, no athlete either.” As she shifted to glare up at him, she found Rui kneeling in front of her, wearing a candid smile and a glimmer in his canary-yellow eyes that spoke of nostalgia.

“Nene,” called Rui, suddenly solemn. “Did I tell you how happy I was for you when you joined that theatre troupe?” He glanced down and bumped their knees together. “You made your dream come true.”

Nene inhaled. She counted the clover patches on her cardigan sleeve and picked at a loose thread. Breathing out, she faced Rui directly. “It’s thanks to you. If… If I hadn’t met you, I wouldn’t have fallen in love with theatre.” I’m sorry I left you alone. Rui looked up at her. Nene found herself staring into the same eyes she’d known since childhood. “It’s our dream.” You’re not alone.

Then their eyes broke apart. Eye contact was too much for either of them.

Rui laughed. “Well, when you put it like that...” He brushed back his loose hair, which Nene realized she had forgotten to fix.

She giggled. “Your hair. You need to cut it.” She reached for a lock and tucked it behind his ear. Instantly, Rui stiffened then melted into the ground, squeaking and giggling at the simple touch.

“Neneheheehee! You’re beheing a buhuhully ahahagainaha!”

“I’m not even doing anything,” she said, fluttering her nails against the shell of his ear.

As she laughed in tune with Rui’s cadence, Nene forgot to worry about how small the space they shared was. All she cared about was this pocket of time that belonged only to them.

Can we see Lee! Douma and Ler! Rui? Like maybe Rui gets revenge after all the times that Douma has tickled him!

I apologize if this one is a little short, I’m just getting over being sick. Anyways I hope you enjoy.

__________________________________________

Douma was alone in his room, humming to himself while rearranging his pot that Gyokko gave him.

He continued to rearrange his room until he heard tiny footsteps coming towards him. Turning around he saw the small lower moon, Rui.

The spider demon looked up at him, eyes twinkling as he re-enacted his plan over, and over in his mind.

Douma has been on a “tickling frenzy” lately. Pretty much he’d tickle whichever demon he could get his hands on, Akaza, Kokushibo, Enmu, Daki, Gyutaro, and of course Rui.

“What’s the matter Rui?” Douma asked the scrawnier demon.

Douma had just the most stupidest goofy smile ever on his face. It irritated Rui, but he didn’t let it show.

“Are you ticklish Douma?” Rui asked, innocence was the only thing in his tone.

“Of course I am, but not as ticklish as say… Akaza!” Douma answered enthusiastically.

Douma, stupidly, decided to turn back around and not being able to notice Rui still there.

Rui held his breath as he attached his hands to the older demon’s sides. Before Douma could react, he started scribbling away.

“Rui! Whahahat ahahare yohohou-?!” Douma giggled

“I’m getting my revenge from all those times you T-tick, tickled me!” Rui stuttered proudly still scribbling away.

“Alrihihihight! Thahahat’s enohohouhugh! Ihihi’m sohohorry!”

Rui just smiled mischievously, moving up to the older’s ribs. This made Douma shriek.

“OHOHOHOKAHAY! THAHAHAT’S- NOHOHOHOHO RUI!”

After a couple more minutes Rui had stopped his attack. And before Douma could catch his breath, he ran so he wouldn’t get to witness Douma’s wrath.

Douma just shook his head and smiled to himself.
