Megumi was never one to smile much, most of the time he was in his room, or sitting somewhere with his headphones on, thinking about anything but what was around him
Yuji was the complete opposite, with his simply charming smile, he was known for making a lot of friends, loving to walk around the city and never being able to sit still
But they had something in common
“I don’t know…” Yuji sighed, scratching his neck with some anxiety “what if everything goes wrong?”
“Tell me how everything could go wrong?” Nobara smiled “stop worrying, Yuji, you have to confess to him, and it will be today!”
The boy threw himself face down on his bed
“What if I can’t?”
“Shut up! Stop talking shit, bro! Go there and do what you have to do, everything will be fine, I promise”
“Promise?” He looked at her with a sad puppy face
“I promise” Nobara laughed
“Okay! Then I’ll go!” Yuji stood up faster than expected, making the girl scream: “That’s it!”
Then, he stopped at the door of the next room, with a flower in his hands, which he had stolen from the Jujutsu school, and all the confidence he had
Yuji took a deep breath and knocked
“Megumi?” He shouted “It’s me!”
The door opened and a tired Megumi was revealed, still wearing his pajamas
“What do you want?”
“C-can I come in?”
He authorized, then the two of them entered, sitting on the bed in an awkward silence
“So… what do you want?”
“I want to ask you something” Yuji took the flower he had hidden behind his back and handed it to his friend “I really like you, Megumi Fushiguro, would you like to go out with me? Just the two of us, in a restaurant”
Megumi's eyes widened, he covered his mouth to hide the stupid smile that had formed.
“M-me and y-you?”
“Yes… but if you don't want it, that's fine! Don't feel insecure about saying no, I won't be too hurt, I think…”
“I accept,” the brunette said quietly.
“What? I didn't hear you.”
“I accept, Itadori.”
“Huh?”
“I accept, Yuji!” Megumi almost shouted.
“Yuji? Did you call me Yuji?” He smiled, ideas of how to make this situation less uncomfortable forming
“That’s your name, idiot” the brunette blushed, crossing his arms
“But you never call me Yuji, “Fushiguro”~” he brought his face closer to the other’s, which made Megumi blush even more
“Stop this shit” he pushed Yuji’s stupid smile away, unable to contain the smile that was forming on his lips
“Am I embarrassing you?~”
Megumi fell back on the bed, grabbed a pillow and pressed it against his own face
“Don’t hide like that, Megumi~, I want to see your smile”
Yuji grabbed the other’s waist, and simply began to squeeze it
The shock of the sudden tickle rose the brunette’s body too quickly, making him have an involuntary reflex to arch his back and scream
“Yuji Itadori- I swear if you do something stupid I’ll- AH!” Treacherous fingers were scratching his unprotected belly, since his arms were being used to press the pillow over his face “nohohoho! Yuhuhuhujihihi!”
“What’s wrong?~ I’m sorry, ‘Gumi, it’s just that you look so cute like this~. Let me see that smile, will you?”
Damn it- ‘Gumi? Megumi had reached the peak of embarrassment that he could, Yuji’s hands, touching his entire body…
“I want to see~” the pink-haired boy then decided that he should attack the other’s weakest point right away. He dug his fingers into his ribs, making Megumi simply throw the pillow at his face.
Even so, Yuji laughed and didn't stop tickling.
"Hey! Ouch! Now you'll see~"
"NOHOHOHOHO I SWEHEHEHEHEAR I’LL KIHIHIHIHILL YOHOHOHOU"
"Poor Megumi is saying bad things~ could it be because I'm tickling him so much?"
Megumi reached out and covered the other's mouth.
"JUHUHUHUST SHUHUHUT UHUHUP" Yuji couldn't hold it in any longer and fell on the bed laughing, letting the other breathe.
"Hehehehe your face!"
“Shut up” Megumi smiled
The pink-haired boy lay down closer to his more-than-best-friend
“Your smile… it’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen” he ran a finger over the other’s mouth
“Y-Yuji-” Megumi’s eyes widened “oh, you know what?”
He pulled Yuji by the collar of his shirt and kissed him, a good, deep, real kiss
Now it was Yuji who had blushed until he was the color of his hair
“Today, 7:00 pm, you and me, at that restaurant I like in downtown Tokyo” the dark-haired boy stood up and opened the door so the other, who was still in a trance because he had simply kissed the love of his life, could leave “go get ready, and don’t be late, I can’t stand being late”
“Y-yes” Yuji stood up, he had that stupid smile on his face again “bye kiss?” He pouted
What Yuji didn't expect was that Megumi would actually kiss him
"See you then" the brunette said without smiling, just closing the door
In the hallway, Yuji ran out screaming, until he tripped over a stone on the floor and fell face down
Megumi, on the other hand, lay down on the bed and smiled, even laughed a little by himself, this was like a dream, he couldn't believe it
Yuji and Megumi, totally different, but something in common, their love for each other
Characters: Switch!Yuji x Switch!Megumi

Word Count: 728
Tickletober 2025 Masterlist
Yuji’s voice cut through the peaceful silence of the commons room. “Megumi!”
The dark haired teen looked up from his laptop, he was currently in the process of typing up a research paper on clown curses. “Yes?” He called back.
“Help!!”
Within seconds, Megumi was jumping up off the floor, laptop abandoned on the blanket he had been covered with. He took off running towards Itadori. “Yuji, what’s wrong??”
Yuji was cowering by the door, pointing frantically off into the corner. Megumi’s blue eyes darted over towards the corner… then he sighed.
His pink haired boyfriend had been pointing at a spider. “Seriously?”
“Yes, seriously! I hate spiders…!” Yuji whined. “Get rid of it…!”
‘He’s lucky he’s cute.’ Megumi lamented internally, then trudged over to the corner, plucking a cup from the water dispenser on the way. “You know, it’s more scared of you than you are of it.”
“Doubtful!”
Megumi carefully scooped up the spider and walked over to the window, gently dumping it outside then closing it. “There, successfully evicted. Happy now?”
“Yes, thank you.” Yuji sighed softly, walking over and lazily wrapping his arms around his black cat boyfriend. “You hungry? I can make dinner while you finish your report.”
Megumi reached up with one hand, his fingers skillfully massaging Yuji's scalp. “Mm… sure. Your cooking sounds good.”
Yuji gave a playful grin and kissed his cheek with a loud, obnoxious ‘mwuah!’ then went to the shared kitchen space for the students.
Megumi grumbled at the overly affectionate kiss, but secretly enjoyed it when his pink haired golden retriever was silly and affectionate.
He went back to typing up his paper, then got a mischievous idea. Deciding his paper would simply have to wait, he quietly crept into the kitchen where Yuji was scrolling through his phone while he waited for the water to boil.
He snuck up quietly behind him, and slowly spidered his fingers along the back of his neck, mimicking spider legs.
Yuji screeched and shot upright, smacking his hand over his neck on alarm… only to feel a warm hand under his.
He whipped around, fixing Megumi with a look of pure betrayal.
Megumi cracked up laughing, pulling his hand back. “Sorry, couldn't resist.”
“You're so meeean.” Yuji pouted, but that pout quickly faded when the black haired teen pulled him into a hug. The pinkette melted in his embrace, nuzzling into his neck.
The peace was short lived however, as Yuji suddenly felt fingers spidering along his sides.
The pink haired boy squealed and burst into laughter, wriggling around. “Wahahahait! Guhuhuhmi!!”
“What?” Megumi asked, his tone nonchalant as he kept spidering his fingers along Yuji's sides.
“Whyhyhy are you tickling meeeee??” The pink haired sorcerer whined between fits of giggles and laughter.
“I’m not, it's the spiders.” He retorted, his voice serious and deadpan as he spidered his fingers along his tummy next, drawing snorts and squeals from the boy.
“Lihihihihiar! Ahahahahaha!”
Megumi tickled him for a few moments longer… until Yuji managed to turn the tables and pin him against the counter, The pink haired teens hands immediately slipped under his tshirt, spidering along his ribs gently.
“Yuhuhuhuhuji!” Megumi gasped, throwing his head back laughing as he grasped at his boyfriend’s hands.
Yuji grinned playfully, he knew exactly which spots to tickle to make the emo boi dissolve into laughter. “Looks like you were right… there are tickly spiders here~” He cooed.
“Gehehehehet ohohohoff!” The ravenette laughed, trying to curl up to protect his sensitive ribs.
“But I’m not doing anything, It’s the spiders~” Yuji teased, spidering his fingers around to gently spider along his shoulder blades. “Unless you wanna admit you were being a little shit and tickling me~”
Megumi gasped loudly, arching his back as loud laughter began pouring from his lips. His shoulder blades were sooooo ticklish, and the pink menace knew that well. “NOHOHOHO! NOT THEHEHERE! AHAHAHAHAHAHA!”
“Ooo, yikes. Sorry, Gumi~ but I don’t do spiders, I can’t help you~” He teased, occasionally teasing the sensitive skin of his shoulder blades with his blunt nails.
“OKAHAHAHAHAY!” He squealed, his face flushing red. “IHIHIHIHIM SORRY! AHAHAHAHAHA! I WAHAHAHAS TICKLING YOU!”
Yuji gasped. “You were?! How rude! Now you’re getting tickled even more for revenge!”
The commons were filled with laughter that night, Megumi’s to be precise… It was totally worth it to mess with Yuji though.
Summary: Yuji, Nobara, and Megumi have all been told to stay inside for their protection. In the meantime, they decide to go head-to-head in Mario Kart 8 to kill their boredom. The consequence for losing is... well, you'll see.
Lee: Nobara
Ler: Megumi & Itadori
A/N: This was actually supposed to be a part one, but then I realized Day 13 is Win, and I wrote it as Lose hehe soooo I'm about to write Day 13 noww. But anyways, enjoy!
"Ugh this sucks!" Nobara didn't want to be stuck in a room with these two fools. She'd so rather be out shopping, but here they are, all together.
"Why don't we play a game? I heard you've got some gaming skills, Nobara." Megumi suggests.
"I have Mario Kart 8, wanna try that?" Yuji asks, motioning to his Nintendo switch. "We can do a whole winner does this or loser does that."
"Ohhoho you don't want to play me, I've mastered the whole game already!" Nobara proudly says.
"Fine. We can play Gojo's way." said Megumi, no emotion behind his words.
"Gojo's way?" Both Nobara and Itadori say, looking at each other and back at Megumi.
"Yeah, and even better. I won't tell you what it is until it happens." A small smile crept on Megumi's face.
"Umm, okay. A little sus but I'm down." Yuji sets up the system, luckily he had 4 controllers so they'd all be able to play.
A three round match begins, and the kids all spout words of anger, cheer, and swearing they'll win.
Until Nobara lost.
"No fair!!! Let me see your character builds!" She yells. "See!! You have your controller safe thing on, I had mine turned off!"
"What is she talking about?" Itadori asks.
"Ohh, I didn't even notice. Yeah she's right. It's the smart steering. I completely forgot to turn that off. Oh well, Nobara, you ready to hear what your punishment is?" Megumi asks, even though she's still protesting.
"No! We should rematch!"
"Hmmm, alright, but you should know what happens if you lose again." He says.
"Fine, tell me then."
"Loser gets tickled for 5 minutes." Again, no emotion.
"ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?" She yells, "This is Gojo's rule!?"
"Ohhh yeahhh, he does that sometimes haha. It's supposed to motivate us to try harder." Itadori says, scratching the back of his head with a big ol' smile on his face.
"Ugh fine! But I'm not losing this time, you can count on that!" She was confident she wouldn't lose.
But she still did.
"No way!! How!?" Nervousness crept up inside Nobara as she knew what was coming.
"Alright Yuji, ready to do this?" Megumi asks, already moving towards Nobara.
"W-W-Wait!! I-I- You should be asking ME if I'm ready!" She starts backing up.
"Well, a deal's a deal. It's only 5 minutes Nobara. It can't be that bad right?" Itadori says, moving in along with Megumi.
"I mean yeah, no, w-wait! I don't think I can handle thihihis!" She starts giggling because Megumi has grabbed her legs and is now pulling her in. Itadori moves to the opposite side, grabbing her arms to sit on top of them.
"It'll be real quick, don't sweat it!" Yuji says all cheerfully, annoyingly.
Megumi straddles her waist and both boys begin attacking the poor girl whose completely pinned beneath them. Yuji trails his fingers down her arms while Megumi starts making little pokes around her tummy.
"Wahahahait! Ahahaha, no guys plehehehease I'm really tihihiHIHICKLISH!!" Yuji has reached her underarms, and Megumi found a particular spot poking her hips.
The dual sensation of both spots being targeted is what made her lose her composure.
"Well, this will be fun then won't it?" Megumi says, now smiling.
"We're all a lil ticklish, right Nobara?" Itadori unnecessarily teases.
"NAHAHAHA OHOHO MY GOHOHOD!!! *squeal* AHAHHA HEHEHE NOHOHOHO!!"
"No what? You're not ticklish? Come on we can clearly see that you are~" more teases from Itadori.
"SHUHUHUT UP!!"
They continue on until the 5 minutes are up. Both boys climb off and Nobara smacks both of them on the arm.
"Not cool!! Ugh!!" She fixes her hair, grabbing the controller. "I need payback. Now!!"
"Ahaha are you sure about that? You might lose again." A smirking Megumi replies.
"There's no way in hell I'm losing now." Nobara needed that payback asap.
What's funny though, Megumi thinks to himself, she never asked us to stop once. Hmm ....
Summary: When a horror movie gets to be too much for Yuji, he turns to Junpei for comfort, only to discover something shocking about his new friend.
Word Count: 747
I have no idea what you're talking about. I definitely didn't forget to upload this yesterday. Definitely not. Anyway, this is pretty short, but I wanted to write something for my favorite boys! I hope you enjoy! 💙
"What was that?" Yuji asked, sounding innocent enough that Junpei believed he could play it off as nothing, if not for the mischievous grin on his face.
"I'm not ticklish!" He blurted, unable to stop himself then cringed, preparing for the worst.
There was a pause. Yuji laughed good-naturedly, "Really?"
He buried his face in his hands, nodding and awaiting his certain doom.
"Okay," he shrugged, sounding vaguely disappointed as he turned back to face the television.
It had been a sort of tradition for the boys to get together at least once a week to watch a movie together. And while Junpei preferred to watch them in the theater, it wasn't exactly practical today, but he had been too thrilled to let that upset him when Yuji had suggested a movie marathon.
Everything was going perfectly. They had met at Junpei's house and settled down on his slightly cramped couch, surrounded by blankets and snacks, chattering and laughing as they watched. Until they put on a horror movie, and Junpei discovered just how touchy Yuji could be.
Whenever there was something he deemed too scary or gross, he'd curl up to Junpei, burying his face in his shoulder to avoid looking at the screen. Not only that, but Yuji wasn't exactly shy. His touch extended beyond that as he didn't hesitate to lean against him or throw his arm around Junpei.
After getting over the initial embarrassment, he found he didn't exactly mind Yuji's casual affection, instead growing to enjoy what was becoming a familiar touch.
Until Yuji's arm slipped, accidentally elbowing him in the side and eliciting a surprised squeak from his friend, spurring the conversation between them.
Junpei didn't know exactly what he expected after his denial. More pushing, surely. Or maybe that Yuji would tickle him anyway.
He wasn't sure, but even more confusing was the odd sense of disappointment he felt when Yuji turned back to the movie.
The feeling of anticipation that had been bubbling in him fizzled out more and more as the seconds passed. Unconsciously, his lips curved into a pout. He was upset. He didn't know why, but he was upset.
He didn't like this feeling.
He liked Yuji. His easy-going attitude and unfamiliar yet comfortable affection. It took a moment to adjust, but he had enjoyed it. He didn't know why this would be any different.
"Yuji?" He started, before he could stop himself.
"Yeah?"
"I…" he hesitated, red-hot embarrassment flooding through him. "I lied. I am… you know."
"You are?" Yuji grinned, something Junpei would almost call disbelieving if not for the fact that he was confident Yuji already had known he was lying.
He swallowed, starting to regret his decision as his nerves grew, but managed a nod.
"Huh," Yuji nodded too with a smile. "You said you weren't before, so maybe I should check for sure."
That was his only warning before Yuji attacked, worming his fingers past the blankets to squeeze his sides, making him gasp and startle.
It didn't take long for laughter to burst from Junpei, surprisingly loud and bright for such a quiet guy.
Yuji's face lit up, a picture of pure joy. "I guess you really are ticklish," he said, sounding amazed.
"I tohohold yohohohu!"
"Well you did," Yuji hummed in thought, switching to rapidly poking at Junpei's ribs, making him curse and swat at his hands, "but you lied first. I don't think friends should do that."
He didn't know what to say to that, so he just laughed instead, noncommittally shaking his head.
"Yeah, I guess I should probably teach you a lesson."
That time, he didn't even have the option to respond before Yuji dug his fingers into his ribs, wriggling and clawing in an awful way that made Junpei shriek, thrashing as much as he could under his blanketed cage.
The sensation was one he hadn't experienced in years. He didn't know the last tone he'd been tickled; he didn't even know he was still ticklish before this. But as the tortuous sensations spread, coursing through him as Yuji's hands kept exploring, poking and prodding at his sensitive skin, he found himself not entirely hating the sensation.
It was oddly exhilarating. And he never could dislike something when Yuji was involved. So he gave into the fluttery feeling, allowing his friend to tickle him silly as he laughed, relaxed and happy and safe, the movie long forgotten.
What’s this? A new fic? In this economy? I don’t believe it! I actually finished a new fic 🫢 I have another one in the works as well for a different fandom, but it’s not quite done yet, but for now, take a Jujutsu Kaisen fic! :) Let’s get into it:
_______________________________
Warnings: none! :) (please tell me if I’m forgetting one)
Ler: Yuji Itadori
Lee: reader
——
You had had probably one of the most crapy day ever. You couldn’t figure out why, but you just felt really bad through out the whole day, and everything just wasn’t okay for you.
When the day’s activities was finally over, you went back to your dorm room and sat in a ball in the corner to cry. As you cried, you felt like you were being consumed by dark thoughts, like everything was fading away, and you were spiralling and spiralling and-
“[NAME]?”
You looked up from your knees to see Itadori standing there as you start trying to wipe away streaks of tears on your cheeks. You didn’t want to be a burden. “O-oh, hi Yuji! What brings you he-“
Your sentence was cut off by him hugging you. You were surprised for a second, but returned the hug.
“It’s okay to be sad you know. You don’t have to pretend that you aren’t. That’s actually why I came to your room… you seemed kinda off all day, and I wanted to try and see if I could help” he said, giving a quick squeeze then parting the hug.
The look you gave him was a strange mix of pain and gratefulness, but you quickly changed it for a painfully fake smile.
“I’m okay, don’t worry! I j-just… got a really bad splinter, so I was crying…”
As you tried to give an explanation, Itadori listened to you, even though he knew you were lying.
Once you were done with your fake reasons as to why you seemed sad, he just looked at you.
“You know, a genuine smile would look better to me” he said simply. “Is there anything I can do to make that happen?”
You froze, resting your face. “No, I’m fine, r-really! I promise, I don’t need anything, I wouldn’t want to inconvenience you”
He sighed, looking at you. “Oh [NAME]… I didn’t want to have to do this, but I guess I have no choice” he said, and a second later, you felt a poke on your side.
You eyes widened when you realized what was going to happen as you made a squeak-like sound.
“[NAME], are you ticklish~?”, he said, teasing a bit now as he started squeezing your sides before you could answer.
“Yuhujihihihi!!! Ahahaha, hehehey!!”, you say, your laughter ringing out, making Itadori happy. “What is it? Don’t tell me this tickles! Wow, it would be kinda flustering for you if that were the case, wouldn’t it?”
A slight blush appeared on your face, as you couldn’t help but smile and laugh. “Shuhuhush!! Dohon’t sahahahay thahat!!”
“Aw, but why not? It true, isn’t it? Clearly it is, you’re blushing! How sweet~! And I was right, and genuine smile is much better!”.
He wasn’t fully teasing you, it was mostly complements, especially on things like your laughter, but it was flustering all the same, and he would always to point out when you made a new sound, when you started to blush more, when he found a bad spot- well, you get the picture.
“Yuhuhuhujihihi!!! Ahahahaha, thahahat- thahahat tihihick-“ you stumbled on the word tickle, regretting getting yourself stuck in a corner that you knew you weren’t getting out of.
“It what? Why can’t you say it, huh~? Is something the matter?”, he said, teasing you.
“Ihihihi cahahahan’t sahahay it!!”, you confessed easily, thinking that would be better than denying it.
“Can’t say what? What is it you can’t say, can you tell me?”
You face was bright red, and you had a big smile. You knew you couldn’t say tickle, so instead you just said: “Ihihihi cahahahan’t!! Yohou figuhuhure ihihit ohout!!”
Itadori gasped as if you had just said the most offensive thing ever, but his voice didn’t loose his teasing tone. “That wasn’t very nice of you, [NAME]! Apologize~!”
You just shook your head, laughing to much to speak.
“No, huh? You aren’t going to apologize? Then I suppose I’ll have to make you apologize~.” As he said this, he moved his hand to your thighs and started squeezing, making you shriek in laughter. “AHAHAHAHAHA!! Y-YUHUJIHIHIHI!!!”
Itadori smiled somewhat innocently, and simply said “Oh? Does it tickle? Hmmm… apologize then”
“OHOKAY OHOKAY!!! IHIHIHI’M SOHOHOHOHORRY!!!”, you said, laughing hysterically.
“There we go!”, he said with the same smile, slowly coming to a stop. “You okay?”
“Y-yeahah…. Thahanks, I needed thahat…” you softly smile at him, and he pulls you into a hug.
“Of course, anytime! Just, please don’t pretend you’re okay when you’re not? Honestly, it’s almost worse than just seeing you sad, so please, talk to me, okay?” As he says this, he lightly skitters his nails over your back to make you all giggly. “Or I’ll just have to tickle you”
You just squeak and giggle. He stops tickling you, and just holds you as you start to tell him what was going on and explain long why you were sad. And he listens for as long as you need.
You were really grateful to have him as a friend.

Okay, that was the fic!! I really hope you enjoyed! This one isn’t the one that I said I was working on either, I actually made it in like half an hour today- idk how I did that, but I’d guess it was because I had an idea, and I just wrote that out! I hope you have a lovely day/night, byeeeee!!
Characters: Switch!Yuta, Switch!Yuji, Gojo, Rika, literally one line from Sukuna
Summary: Yuta and Yuji decide to play a game to pass the time until Gojo shows up for training, only Yuji takes it to the next level… and then it backfires on him.
Word Count: 2186
A/N: Hellooooo everyone~ This is now two days late, I apologize ^^; Just a minor update, there won't be any posts for the next few days, I have decided I'm gonna focus on resting and not push myself too much following my surgery on friday, and as a result will extend Tickletober a bit into november. So prompts 4, 5, 6, and 7 will likely be posted in november (unless I miraculously get them posted sooner), with posts hopefully resuming on the 8th. Sorry for the inconvenience! I hope you enjoy this fic <3
I will post what characters were meant for each temporarily held prompt in the masterpost.
Why did Yuta agree to this?? Why was Yuji so damn convincing with that damn puppy face??
The clacking and scraping of shoes echoed through the quiet hallways of the school as Yuta ran as fast as his legs would carry him, the faint sound of counting in the distance could barely be heard over the sound of Yuta’s rapid heartbeat.
“Yuta, why are you so scared? Are you in danger?” The voice of Rika could be heard in his head, causing him to stumble a bit. He had expected her to still be asleep.
“N-No! It’s fine, I’m not in any real danger!” He quickly reassured the cursed girl not wanting her to take Yuji as a genuine threat, darting down the stairs skipping two at a time.
“Then why is your heart beating so fast? And why are you running?”
Yuta headed into another connected building of the school, diving into the art room and closing the door. He doubled over, panting softly. “Well… It’s a long story…”
-
“Man, where’s Gojo? I know he’s normally late but… THIS late??” Yuji sighed, flopping backwards on the tatami mat.
“Yeah, unfortunately his training times are more of a rough estimate of when he’ll be here, not when he’ll actually show up.” Yuta agreed, smiling in exasperation at his underclassmen from his spot cross legged on the mat.
Yuji rolled over onto his side lazily to look up at Yuta. “How late do you think he’ll be?”
Yuta hummed thoughtfully, taking into account he’s just returning from a trip and his own past experiences. “Probably an hour… why?”
“An hour?? UGHH!” Yuji dramatically threw his arm over his eyes as he laid on his back again. “I’m sooooo bored…”
Yuta giggled at his dramatics and let a comfortable silence fall over the two of them, closing his eyes to meditate and rest.
After about five minutes, Yuji had an idea. He sat up and broke the silence. “I know, let’s play a game!”
Yuta flinched a bit, he had been deep in meditation and had become unaware of his surroundings. Even Rika had fallen asleep.
He opened his warm blue eyes, looking at Yuji curiously. “A game? What kind?”
“How about Hide and seek? I play it all the time with Megumi, Nobara, and Choso.” He grinned cheerfully at the ravenette.
“Hmm… Yeah, that should be fine I guess. Games like that are usually quick anyway.” Yuta shrugged. He was used to playing games with Toge and Panda anyways.
“Great! I’ll be the seeker if you want to hide.” Yuji beamed.
“Yeah… alright.”
The two boys got up and were about to begin the game when Yuji remembered something.
“OH! Uh, one more thing… we usually play with different rules.” Yuji quickly interjected, in his excitement he had nearly forgotten.
“Oh, what is it?” Yuta looked over at him, tilting his head a bit.
“Well.. when the hider gets caught, usually the seeker gets to tickle them.”
Yuta could swear his whole body went rigid at that, his face flushing. “I… W-What?”
“Yeah, It’s like hide and seek, but with tickles!” Yuji grinned cheerfully, but when he took note of how flustered and nervous Yuta looked, he added. “But… If you don’t want to play with our rules, that’s fine.”
The ravenette anxiously fiddled with his ring. Yuta is damn near unbearably ticklish… there’s hardly a spot on the boy that isn’t, if he’s being honest with himself.
But when he looked at the almost kicked puppy quality to Yuji’s eyes despite his gentle smile, he found himself reluctantly agreeing. “N-No it’s… It’s alright. I’ll play with your rules.”
-
Once he had finished recounting how he ended up locked in the art room, Rika couldn’t contain her laughter at how he’d gotten himself into this situation.
“Ehehehehe! I can’t believe you actually agreed, you’re sooo ticklish!” She teased. “You can’t even handle having a doctor push on your stomach without breaking into giggles!”
Yuta huffed, clearly flustered by the cursed girls teasing, a blush spreading across his face. “You’re not helping, Rika!” He complained inwardly, his eyes scanning the room for an inconspicuous place to hide.
He ducked into a closet and quietly shut the door.
“So, how does the game work? Do you just have to wait for him to give up?” Rika inquired, laying on the floor of Yuta’s mind doodling away in an artbook.
Yuta closed his eyes, beginning to meditate once more.
He walked along the floor and crouched down beside Rika, smiling as he admired her art. “Not exactly… We’re just playing until Gojo gets back, so whenever one of us gets a confused text from him the game is over.” He explained, carefully sitting down.
Rika smiled warmly up at him then resumed her artwork. “So, anytime between the next five minutes or the next five hours?” she asked teasingly.
Yuta chuckled. “Yeah, that sounds about right.”
He watched over the girl’s shoulder as she drew, a peaceful silence falling over his mind.
An unknown amount of time passed by, he didn’t typically pay attention to time when he meditated… not that he really could anyway since time moved strangely in his mind.
He caught a few strange glances from the brunette girl, and finally he decided to ask her. “Is something wrong, Rika?”
Her brown eyes widened a little, and she gave an innocent smile. “No no, of course not. I just enjoy spending time with you, Yuta… that’s all.”
“Are you sure? You’re–”
“Gotcha!!”
Yuta shrieked as he fell out of the closet into Yuji’s arms. “Wh-Wha?? How did you find me??” He stammered, his eyes wide.
“Dude, you were radiating so much cursed energy… It’s almost like you wanted to get caught!” Yuji laughed, helping Yuta stand.
Cursed energy…?
A small giggle.
“Rikaaaaaa! You gave me away!?”
“Ehehehehe!! Sorry, Yuta! I couldn’t resist!”
She’s a gremlin, that one. For someone so protective of him, she sure messed with him a lot.
“Rika gave me away…” He mumbled begrudgingly, causing Yuji to let out another bark of laughter.
“Sounds like something Sukuna would do.” The pinkette smiled in exasperation.
“As if I would stoop so low as to partake in your childish games.” Sukuna scoffed internally.
“Well… Rules are rules…” Yuta relented, holding his hands up in surrender. “I guess… go for it.”
Yuji didn’t need to be told twice, the pink haired menace In training tackled Yuta to the floor with a startled yip and shoved his fingers under his arms. “Well, If you insist!”
Yuta yelped and curled up into a ball as he burst out laughing. “W-Wahahahait a minute! Ehehehehe!”
“Nope, no waiting!” Yuji grinned, leaning down closer as he wiggled his fingers with reckless abandon. “Oh man, you’re like… super ticklish, aren’t you? No wonder you were so hesitant…”
Yuta flailed, kicking his lean legs in every which way. “Ahahahaha! Gehehehet your fihihihingers out of there!” Yuta snorted between laughs, blushing at the sounds he was making.
“Aww, not a fan of armpit tickles?” Yuji cooed teasingly, but complied with the… order? Plea? Request…? Sure, let’s go with that. “How about here?” his fingers began to spider along his stomach, causing him to squeal.
“W-Wahahahit!! No not thehehere either!” He yelped, his laughter increasing.
“Yutaaaa, you can’t just say not there for every spot.” Yuji laughed, something on the teachers desk caught his eye, and he discreetly swiped it with one hand while still tickling Yuta with the other.
Yuta giggled uncontrollably as Yuji pushed his shirt up and traced light patterns against his tummy. This sensation he could tolerate.
The ravenette squirmed around as he giggled, covering his face with his hands to hide his blush and prevent himself from trying to stop the pinkette.
Yuji grinned. “Okkotsu-sannn~ You have such an adorable laugh!”
“N-Nohohoho I don’t!” He whined, clearly a flustered mess.
His underclassmen’s grin widened at his giggly protests, he switched to tickle his tummy with one hand while he pulled out the object he had swiped.
It was two felt tipped markers, one orange and one black. He quietly uncapped them using his teeth, and without warning, began doodling on Yuta’s tummy.
Yuta screeched when the felt tip began drawing smooth lines along his toned midsection, his back arching sharply as he erupted into loud laughter. “NAHAHAHAH! Ohohohoho god! Whahahahat is that!?!?”
“It’s a marker, now quit squirming, I’m trying to draw a pumpkin!” Yuji giggled along with him, carefully drawing the outline first.
“YUHUHUHUHUJI! AHAHAHAHA PLEHEHEHASE! IHIHIT TICKLES!” Yuta cackled, clawing desperately at the floor to try to remain still.
“Yeah, that’s the idea~”
Yuji continued his careful doodling, laughing right along with Yuta when he colored in the outline with the orange marker. After a few more minutes, Yuji had mercy.
He put the caps back on the markers and admired his handiwork, he took his phone out and snapped a picture of him, all flushed and a tickle dazed grin on his face, with his shirt pushed up and a cartoony jack-o-lantern drawn on his tummy in marker.
He turned his phone around after zooming in on the sketch. “Like your new tattoo??” Yuji asked with a snicker.
“Oh… I love it… I’m gonna get it permanently tattooed right on my stomach…” Yuta retorted sarcastically as he panted, causing the younger of the two to erupt into a fit of giggles.
“Aw come on… It wasn’t that bad, Yuta!”
Yuta glanced up at him with an unreadable expression, then, in the next instant he found himself laying on his back with Yuta pinning him to the floor.
“Oh yeah?” He swiped a purple marker and a green marker from the desk and narrowed his eyes at the pink haired mischievous boy. “Well, since it wasn’t that bad, maybe I should return the favor and give you a new tattoo!”
He popped the caps off, and also removed the cap from the black marker Yuji had used on him.
“W-Whoa whoa whoa! Hang on! That was for losing Hide and seek!” Yuji stammered, grinning nervously as Yuta pushed his shirt up.
“Was it? Because I don’t remember agreeing to being tickled with markers when we talked about the punishment.” Yuta smirked, beginning to doodle on Yuji’s belly with the black marker, he was going for a black cat wearing a witches hat.
Yuji exploded into loud squeals and giggles, not expecting to get a taste of his own medicine… despite his tickly actions always having tickly consequences. “Yuhuhuhuhuta!!! Ahahahahahah!”
“Yeah? What?” Yuta hummed, a grin stretching across his lips when Yuji squealed again as the tip of the marker dipped into his belly button.
“IHIHIHIT TIHIHIHICKLES!”
“That’s kind of the idea, Yuji.”
The anxious boi continued his artistic rendition, being teasingly slow whenever passing over an especially sensitive patch of skin.
The pink haired golden retriever boi continued to laugh his precious heart out, despite his complaints he didn’t resist. He was content to just let Yuta tickle him, which the older of the two couldn’t help but find precious.
“Aww, you’re not even fighting back…” Yuta giggled, his blue eyes twinkling with amusement as he colored in the witches hat.
“Ahahahahahaha! Ihihihits not thahahahat bad!” Yuji admitted, crossing his arms behind his head as he giggled. “Ihihihits kind of relaxing.”
“Relaxing?” Yuta parroted, the concept foreign to the bundle of nerves. “Well… I guess I shouldn’t be too surprised, you’re a different breed anyway.”
“Ihihihi’ll take that ahahahas a compliment!” Yuji grinned.
Yuta snorted at that, a fond exasperated look on his face for his underclassmen. He reached up with his free hand and began gently pinching and squeezing at his hip while drawing.
Yuji squawked indignantly at that, arching his back at the added tickles. “AHAHAHAHA! Hehehehehey!!”
The art room door flew open with a dramatic thud. “Oh, there you two are… I’ve been looking everywhere for…”
Gojo trailed off as he blinked behind his sunglasses, taking in the sight before him with a softer, more fond grin on his face. A look reserved only for his students.
Yuta stopped his art, putting the cap back on with a flourish and climbing off of Yuji. The pinkette sat up in a small daze, looking down at his stomach then letting out an over-exaggerated gasp. “I love it!!”
Yuta threw his head back and laughed at his response, causing Yuji to also burst out laughing again.
Gojo whipped his phone out, snapping a picture of the two laughing together, Yuji’s drawing on full display while Yuta’s pumpkin drawing peeked out from his shirt riding up.
Oh, he was so never letting either of these two live this down. It was probably just about the most wholesome thing he’d seen.
“Are you ready to train?” Yuji asked Gojo after calming down a bit.
“Nah. I changed my mind, let’s go get some dinner instead.” Gojo helped the two students up, ruffling their hair affectionately. “We can always train another time.”
But wholesome, happy moments like this? They’re fleeting. And he wanted the two to enjoy it while it lasted.
