“I think he does,~ but he also needs a punishment for ruining my X power too, so he better be ready~” Mega braced for impact as the 2 friends inched closer to him.
Using the limited brain power Mega had left in him, he looked around for a possible escape route. His face flushed a deeper shade of red as Mira began to circle around him slowly, blocking off multiple escape routes while wiggling her teal-tipped nails at her brother.
“Megaaa~ you know you can't be mean to my friends!~ I end up having to hear from them that you always torture them in ranked modes…” Mira frowned sarcastically; she couldn't hide the wide grin plastered across her face.
“You have too many friends, you i-idiot!- most of them are way lower ranked than me, so of course I'd beat them anyway!” Mega tried to hide his overly flustered face; his eyes stayed glued on his sister. But, due to the limited brain power he was operating on, he completely forgot the other threat was already closing in on him.
“Well, next time don't think about taunting anyone! Especially me~” Someone had whispered right into his pinkish ear as he felt Vespers sneaky hands wrap around him, holding him from under his arms. Exposing his entire torso and leaving most of his body immobile. Mira looked up into her poor brother's eyes as she wiggled her nails dangerously close to his sides.
“I’m s-sorry okay!- I didn't mean to taunt anyone; I was just caught up and full of my s-self!” Mega desperately wiggled around; with his already weakened arms from being tired, he had very little strength to fight back. The more he thrashed around, the more the two friends giggled to themselves. Without realizing it, Mega's fighting caused his shirt to lift slightly, just barely exposing his bare torso.
“You did apologize… but you still need to be punished, my dear brother~ maybe this will make sure you never taunt my friends again~” Mira winked at Mega as she slipped her hands under Mega’s shirt, very slightly scritching and scratching his sides.
“I s-sahahahaid everything I c-could!.. lehehet me down you idiots!…” Vesper gasped, looking at Mira through Mega's shoulder, gently resting her head there.
“Idiots!? That's not very nice you damn tryhard~” Vesper glanced at Mira, using her pouty face; she glared at Mega; he knew this wasn't the end. Mira sighed, gently lowering her tickly fingers so that she could attack his ribs.
“M-mirahahaha!- c-cut it out aahahalready!-” Mega spoke through his giggles the best he could. Vesper, still restraining him, giggled as she whispered directly back into his ear/
“All you gotta do is promise~, and I’ll let you free~” The more she whispered, the redder Mega’s ears became as Mira started to spider down his entire torso, from his sides to ribs, now reaching a much more sensitive spot. His tummy.
“You can do that right, Mega?~ for your sister's sake?~” She spoke in the most sly and teasing voice she could while reaching down to his tummy.
“OHOHOHOOKAYEHEHEHE! I W-WILLHEHEHEE! JUHUHUST S-STOP IT ALREADY!” The blue-haired octo was starting to lose it. His giggles turned into full-on laughter while still struggling to fight and to find a way out of this situation, which he knows he caused himself. Both Vesper and Mira giggled alongside Mega’s laughs. Knowing he would listen to the two of them without any problems, she prepared herself for the final blow. Mira winked at her brother one more time before running her nails down his sides, leading her to his hips. She rubbed circles along another one of his most sensitive parts of his body.
“I P-PROMISEHEHEHEHE! I W-WONTHEHEHE DO IT AGAHAHAHAIN!..” Mega’s laughter shot up an octave as he started to reach his breaking point. Mira knew time was up and he was already exhausted from his battles earlier in the day.
“Well, you did promise so I’ll take that!~” She finally put a halt to her tickling. Vesper sighed, releasing her arms as Mira pulled his shirt back down to save his tummy.
“That was not needed at all you idiots!.. but whatever… I’ll keep my promise, as long as you guys forget that this ever happened.” Mega stood firmly; his sister couldn't resist laughing at his flustered face. Who would possibly try giving orders to the person who just tickled and teased him to bits?? He was a fighter… Mira knew that, knowing they always grew up having tickle fights, which she would mostly win. Mega used to make her swear to never bring it up to any of his friends. Vesper covered her giggling mouth as she grabbed her bag, approaching the siblings’ door.
”Well that was fun, but I should really go get some sleep… That was fun, you two~ and Mega make sure to never taunt my buddies again!~ or else the punishment will be a lot worse for you~” She stuck out her tongue before exiting the apartment. Mira locked the door and sat down on the couch, ready to play games for the remainder of the night. Mega was heading to his room before stopping in the hallway; he turned around and poked his head out.
”Nothing happened, and we never speak about that.” He quickly scurried off to his room as his twin sister shouted from the couch.
“Sure sure~ Just make sure you got a better plan if you wanna escape the tickle monster!~” This only made Mega incredibly more flustered. He pouted before shutting and locking his bedroom door. In the other room, Mira smiled; she loved her brother and her friends, and moments like these made her feel warm and fuzzy inside. Something she wants everyone to experience.

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.
My first oc and Splatoon write!! This fic is based on my oc Mira and my friends oc Vesper :3
Summary: Vesper bored herself out in ranked so she goes to visit her Mira to play some Mario Kart. Mira finds herself losing a little too much, so she takes action against Vesper to confirm her first place spot, but the question is, will Vesper allow that to happen so easily?
Word count: 2,173
Switch: Vesper, Mira
Other: Mega mentioned at the end
Read below!~
Loss after loss after loss… Vesper sat down on her slosher before sighing to herself. She only wanted to test what she had learned from previous battles, only to lose 5 times in a row… She kept encountering the same dapple dualies player, who eventually was just taunting her for a while.
“This got boring way too fast…” Vesper sighed, thinking about what she possibly could do? She wanted to train the entire day, so she cleared her entire schedule, but now, she understood she was having an off day, and it was better that she wouldn’t destroy her rank even further. She sat there idly on her bucket for a while before eventually coming up with a solution to her boredom.
Vesper ran back to her apartment, placed her bucket back on its stand, and ran out the door, grinning eye to eye.
“If I can’t entertain myself, I’ll just get someone else to do it~” she thought in her head. it took her less than 5 seconds to choose that special someone she would cling to so she could be freed of her boredom. Vesper walked confidently up to the door of another apartment and knocked. Footsteps could be heard from the other side, while Vesper sees the shadow of someone in the doorway. Before she knew it, the door had swung open.
“Vesper?! What brings you by? I thought you were out trying those new-“ Vesper had cut her friend off.
“Not now, Mira… I’m here because I need someone to entertain me!~ and I’ve chosen you for that job~” Mira sighed, the 2 octolings had met at a video game convention and ever since they’ve been best of friends.
“This is the third time you’ve said this to me in the past week!!- You know I’m not some type of clown!” Mira tried her best to look annoyed while she shut the door, but Vesper knew she didn’t mind; they practically are always at each other's side. The pair has known eachother for 5 years now, if anything, you could call them long lost sisters at this point. Vesper smirked and looked past Mira’s pretend upset expression and saw none other than their favorite game on Mira’s television, with conventionally 2 controllers placed on a small round table in front of the TV.
“Oh? Are you playing with your brother?” Vesper walked over and sat on the couch before picking up one of the controllers.
“Nope… Mega is in X rank right now, I’m pretty sure, he’s been warming up all morning despite the fact I’ve been trying to make him take a break, but he seems pretty stuck up on getting a certain power…” This made Vesper’s eyebrow rise, looking up at Mira, who made her way and sat next to Vesper, grabbing the other controller.
“He’s in X rank right now?… did I run into him earlier and didn’t realize it??” Vesper got lost in her thought before Mira poked her side to bring her back to reality.
“Pick your character already!! Jeez, for someone who’s so bored, how could you be lost in thought for so long…” Mira smirked at Vesper. She knew that Vesper seemed to be a little frustrated when battling was brought up, so she knew forcing her into Mario Kart would keep her distracted from any negative thoughts she may have been having.
“Alright alright!- really does it matter that much?.. I’m gonna win anyway ~” Vesper, in her most cocky tone ever, gave Mira that damn smirk before getting even more comfortable on the couch, putting her legs right into Mira’s lap as she decided to play a little crooked for whatever reason… Mira looked down at the sight before smiling and thinking for a moment.
“Maybe today I’ll show you what Mega taught me what to do if I ever fall behind!~” Mira stuck out her tongue at Vesper before quickly locking her eyes on the TV. As the races went on it was obvious who was in first place. The 2 teal haired octolings were both competitive, but one of them always had came out on top way more than the other.
“First place 4 times in a row for the entire Grand Prix.. got nothing to say for yourself, Mira?~” she in fact, did not have anything to say… BUT, instead of words, she had an action instead. Before Vesper could even react, Mira had pulled her onto her legs, bringing her not only closer to Mira but also putting her torso area in range of Mira’s arms. Vesper seems to have forgotten that her best friend actually had a surprisingly bit of strength, which allowed her to move Vesper with no struggle at all.
“Mira!- I meant to say something, not do somethin-GHEHEHE!-“ before Vesper could plead her case, Mira had taken things into her own hands, grabbing Vesper's hips and giving them a big squeeze.
“Actions do mean more than words, so you should be grateful~” Mira whispered into her ear, attempting to crumble Vesper into a pile of giggles.
“M-MIRAHAHAHAHA!-“ Vesper’s giggles hid the fact that she was planning on switching the tides but just needed a way on how…
“Well, now I’m doing something about it~ can’t Vesper handle a few little tickles?~” Mira continued to dance around her upper body, placing each one of her slightly pointy fingers on every spot she could.
“O-OHHOHOHOOKAY I GIVEHEHEHE UP!…” Vesper was able to mutter out before her ticklish attack came to a close. Mira grinned ear to ear as Vesper switched positions and sat on her legs, while Mira turned her body so she could rest her head on Vesper’s thigh.
“You know, for someone who has such a sassy attitude, you sure have a pretty funny weakness~” Mira moved closer and whispered into Vesper’s ear, her face slightly glowing red before deciding it was her chance to change the tides. Vesper glared back at Mira, her eyes locking deep into her teal pupils before quickly moving into action. Before Mira could even react or fight back, Vesper had both of Mira’s wrists caught in her left hand. Mira let out a small gasp as she felt her arms being lifted up above her head, then locked into place when Vesper sat on her hands with her knee to make sure they were pinned right where she needed them to be.
“And for someone who’s so confident, you sure leave yourself open too often~ maybe this is the reason you keep losing in X rank, hm?~” Copying Mira’s verbal teases from earlier, Vesper slowly trailed her nails down the poor girl's arm, making her giggle and wiggle around.
“D-damnhehehehe ithehehehe!- v-vehehehehesper!!-“ Mira was attempting to kick her legs in an attempt to loosen Vesper’s grip on her arms. Vesper made sure to keep Mira as still as she could, scribbling all around her arms. As she continued her assault, Mira could feel Vesper’s nails slowly but surely reaching down to her underarms.
VEHEHEHEHESPER!!- NOT THAHAHAHAT SPOTTT!!…” Vesper smirked as she listened to her best friend’s voice. The girls' laughter had seamlessly gone up an octave higher as she reached one of her weakest spots.
“Jeez!… it couldn’t be THAT bad, right?~” Vesper cooed into her ear despite the fact that she was being the most hypocritical person in the world at that moment. Mira tried her best, thrashing around, squirming, even attempting to scratch Vesper’s knees, which still held a tight grip on her hands.
“VESPER I S-SWEAREHEHEHEHE!!-“ Vesper cut off Mira’s threat with her pointer finger pressing down on her lips. She looked down at her flustered friend with a sly smirk on her face. Mira’s face boiled as she felt the finger press down on her own lips. She was losing strength and was starting to accept her ticklish fate. Vesper kept up just a little longer, inching down gently to her ribs and eventually to her tummy.
“VESPER NOHOHOHO Y-YOU CAHAHAHAHANT JUST!!…” Vesper watched her laugh changed instantly once reaching different spots. She found it both amusing and cute how one’s laughter could change so much depending on where they are being tickled. Mira kept on wiggling and squirming like usual, Vesper was pretty much rocking back and forth while her knees stood as still as possible to keep her arms bounded.
“Maybe endurance training is needed for something like you~ You may be able to survive in the lower ranks but people have some strange tactics in X rank so you need to make sure you keep all of these pesky weak spots safe!~” Vesper had thought back to one time, during her early days in X rank, when she witnessed one of her teammates being cornered by a roller user and a brush user. Before she knew it, her poor teammate got pinned down by the roller as the brush started to tickle the teammate to bits… Vesper ran away but had accidentally locked eye contact with those enemies, they started started to chase her down, but luckily the game ended just in time. She didn’t play for the next couple of days as she feared those players would find her.
“THISHEHEHE CANT HAPPEN IN X RANK YOU L-LIAREHEHEHEHE!..” Mira wanted to deny what Vesper was saying, but deep inside, there was definitely a possibility of tickling being used as some sort of tactic to weaken the enemy.
“Of course it does silly!~ You know, even the ink can make you more tickli!-“ Both Vesper and Mira clamped their mouths closed. Both of them glared over to see someone opened the door that Mira had forgotten to lock since Vesper was too busy making an entrance earlier…
“Uh?… Am I I-interrupting something?…” Mira’s face was boiling red. It was her twin brother, Mega. He was only just returning from his own X rank session, and now he’s coming home to hearing laughter outside the door, and now he sees Vesper on top of his sister with her fingers scattered around Mira’s tummy when he opens the door.
“Nononono!- It’s okay Mega!!- Vesper was just preparing me for X rank!” She laughed nervously, trying to cover up the fact that she tried to form a lie out of thin air. She was being punished for starting the tickle fight… not some type of endurance training.
“I’m pretty sure tickling isn’t gonna help you?…- Vesper, what were you doing to her…” Mega sighed, he’s used to dealing with Mira’s and Vesper’s antics, but never he saw one of top of another.
“It would technically, if you were smart enough to understand…” Vesper scoffed off at Mega before staring at his gear.
“Hey where were you by the way?…” Vesper‘s sarcastic tone faded as she talked in her more genuine voice.
“well I’ve been in X rank for maybe 4 hours today?.. yea it’s been one of those days.” Mega watched Vesper’s eyes very closely
“Why do you ask?…” Vesper inched closer before her brain clicked. In X rank the players’ names are blurred so you don’t know who’s who… she knew that Mega used dapple dualies… and on top of that, she recognized the gear he was using!… She never thought it was him because his gear was different from before, but now she realizes the dapple dualies that was causing her so many problems was standing right infront of her! Mega watched as she stared into his soul, slowly taking a couple of steps back, trying to inch closer to the side where Mira was standing.
“Do you… remember a slosher player from about 2 hours ago… you fought her a couple times and even TAUNTED her…” Vesper didn’t even sound angry. This was her perfect opportunity to get revenge for herself, her small smile turning into a more wicked smirk.
“OH!.. t-that was youuuu huh?.. ehe…” Mega ran over and crouched behind his sister in pure fear. As she saw Vespers’ fingers wiggling towards him. Mira knew what was going on and decided to play around a little. She quickly turned around with her hands on her hips.
“Mega!! How dare you taunt my friend that much!!” She tried to act as shocked as she could… how could her own brother torture her friend?? AND almost getting away with it??
“You gotta be kidding me?!- taking her side?!-“ Mega shot up as he picked up his pace. Before he knew it, he felt contact as his back was up against the wall. He stared as now 20 fingers were teasingly wiggling towards him.
“My poor brother~ with this type of reaction, I think he needs some endurance training too!~ don’t you think Vesper?~” Mega couldn’t hold it in as his face started to turn a light pink color. He hated this feeling and knew what was coming.
“I think he does~ but he also needs a punishment for ruining my X power too~ so he better be ready~” Mega braced for impact as the 2 friends inched closer to him.
IM SORRY FOR THE CLIFF HANGER!!! I PROMISE I'M GONNA WORK ON PART 2 SO LET ME KNOW IF YOU'D LIKE TO SEE IT!! And more of me and my friends ocs as well :)
Thank you so much for replying so soon :3, I've already read your other fic and I loved your writing style.
Can I request for lee Shiho ler Ichika. Where Shiho was in a really strong lee mood but was in denial because "she was a cool bassist and couldn't waste time thinking about being tickled to tears by someone." Shiho thought she was doing a good job of hiding it, but it was actually pretty obvious to her friends. Then, when the Ichika and Shiho were just talking after a solo practice, Ichika decided enough was enough and that she was going to give Shiho what she wanted but wouldn't admit. (You can decide if you want to make it platonic or romantic, I don't mind :3)
Have a fantastic day/night
THIS IS SO CUTEEEE!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ASKING!! I ended up getting a little carried away, but I hope you like it!! If there's any grammar or spelling, I apologize I was typing a bit too fast...
A Bassist in Denial (Ichishiho)

Read below!
The sun rose into the sky, shining light into Shiho’s bedroom. She groaned, sitting up in bed reaching for her phone to check her weekend plans.
“Group practice in 2 hours… and I need to meet with Ichika tomorrow-” Shiho stopped herself from talking outloud as a thought jumped into her head, a thought related to a dream she had that night. She vaguely remembered what occurred in the dream, but she recalls it was just herself and Ichika alone together, while Ichika seemed to have been… tickling the green bassist. She snapped back into reality with tickly thoughts flooding her mind… She could never understand why these thoughts of feathers, nails, gentle fingers, and teases filled up her head instantly, and now she was craving it too. With a big sigh, she pulled herself up and out of bed before hearing the birds chirping right outside her window. Her eyes slowly panned down at the feathers of the bird; even just the sight of feathers made her think about getting tickled to bits, but she could never have the strength to admit that… Her eyes darted back, opening up her closet to pick out her clothes for the day, before hearing a quick and gentle knock on her door.
“Shii? Are you awake?”
“I'm getting ready for practice, what do you need…” she says in her common, blunt tone
“Well i just got this new candle, and it smells amazing~ I think it would tickle your fancy!” Shiho was about to respond before hearing that dreaded word she wouldn't dare to say. After a few more thoughts pass through Shihos mind, her older sister finally breaks the silence.
“Shii?… Are you okay in there?…” Shizuku nervously waits for a response for another few seconds before her little sister finally speaks up.
“I'm okay” responding back almost in a snippy manner… she slips on her oversized green hoodie with a t-shirt on underneath.
“I have to leave anyway, I have a group practice, and I don't wanna be late” Shiho adds before slinging on the case to her bass guitar and quickly running out of her room and out of the house. As she starts to run farther and farther away, almost reaching the studio Leo/Need has been using to practice in, she runs out of breath and chooses to sit down on a bench close by the studio. The bench had just enough shade, with a tree covering the blazing sun shining above. Shiho sits down, still slightly out of breath, before getting distracted by the birds chirping in the tree above her.
“How come birds sometimes sing better than me, huh?…” she mumbles to herself before the birds flutter their wings and fly away. Shiho looks back onto the landscape before something soft landed in her lap from above…. It was a feather.
“Oh come on!...” The flustered bassist mutters accidentally out loud before clamping her mouth shut, staring down at the feather. Shiho’s head gets filled with even more tickly thoughts… the feeling of a feather running down her neck, arms, and especially down to her tummy and naval made the tickly green-haired loser even more embarrassed, and now she was out in public! Just as she thought this day couldn't get worse, she felt a tap on her shoulder.
“Shiho?… you okay? You’re all red in the face…” It was the same person she dreamed about wrecking her. It was Ichika. Shiho looked up as Ichika took the spot on the bench next to her with a concerned but genuine smile on her face.
“Yea of course I'm okay!.. t-theres no reason I wouldn't be…” Shiho quickly swats the feather out of her lap before interlocking both her hands. Ichika didn't believe her for one second… she calmly placed her right hand on top of Shihos before saying in a very gentle and caring tone
“You know you can ask me for anything, right? I mean it!” She gives her bassist a big old smile before jumping off the bench. Shiho finally looks up to her with a very small hint of a smile curving on her lips. She stands up and walks with Ichika close together before finally reaching the music studio. Saki and Honami both greet the two stragglers.
“You guys are almost never late… did something happen??” Saki runs up to both Ichika and Shiho, Honami following her lead.
“No, I just needed to catch my breath thats all…” Shiho shrugs and scratches the back of her head as Ichika tunes in next to her.
“Yea everything is okay! I caught Shiho a little out of breath, so I had to make sure she got to the studio safe” She warmly smiled at the group; all of them seemed calm and ready to practice.
“That's great to hear! Shall we get started?” Honami chimes in, all 4 members then grab and set up their equipment hastily.
(Insert either your fav Leo/Need song or Stella because Stella is peak)
The minutes soon turned to hours, the 4 of them were playing perfectly for a while, everyone was making minimal mistakes, everyone was on time, and hitting the right notes in tune. As practice went on, she slowly itched towards Ichika just a tiny bit… for no particular reason… but even with those tickly thoughts on her mind, she was playing well. It was only towards the end of the practice that Shiho started to get a little bored with playing the same couple of songs over and over again. She started to slowly mess up her timing or play out of key with the other 3. Ichika started to look over. She saw her bassist’s flushed face and gritting teeth. At the end of their song, Ichika took a small pause before speaking up.
“I think I'm all played out tonight… how about we call that quits for tonight?” The 3 of them listened to their leader and agreed they practiced enough, the 4 of them packed up their instruments and started to say their goodbyes. As Shiho put her guitar back into its case, she felt a gentle poke on her side. The poor girl let out a small gasp as she turned around with one of her hands covering her mouth.
“oops!- I didn’t mean to scare ya!” It was Saki… she giggled before grabbing shihos free hand.
“You did great today!~ Our practice is really paying off more than I first thought it would… Saki gets lost in thought as Shiho blanked out before Saki even finished her compliment. She was thinking of the poke delivered swiftly to her side; she knew deep inside she wanted more than just to be poked… she wanted to be under the mercy of her friends’ nimble fingers, but had no way of expressing that. Shiho knew that the dream gave her the most embarrassing mood she could ever have, but as the coldest and most distant person in the group, why would she even have the chance to ask for something like tickles? Shiho is typically the person who keeps to herself the most, but just this once, she felt like she wanted some type of attention…
“Shiho?… don't stare off now!!-” Shiho once again snapped into reality to hear Saki’s voice.
”Oh sorry… y-yea! We did really well today…” Deep down, she just wanted to go back to bed, to even have a small chance of having that dream flash into her sleeping head again.
“I'll see you around, okay?” Saki walked backwards, waving off with Honami at her side aswell
“bye you two!!” Honami followed Saki’s lead as they were both heading in the same direction. Shiho let out a big sigh as she threw her guitar case over her back. She was ready to leave before someone tapped her shoulder.
“How about we walk together?” She smiled warmly at her bassist. After a moment of silence, Shiho spoke up.
”Sure… but you know we have that solo practice soon, right? Shiho asked her leader, and Ichika nodded quietly as both of them walked towards Shiho's house. The entire walk back, all Shiho could think about was her dream, Ichika’s nimble fingers were dancing across her tummy swiftly, counting her ribs, scritching and scratching at her hips, the list went on… Before she knew it, they both arrived at Shihos home.
The next day, Shiho woke up, she sat up in her bed and looked out the window at the bright sky ahead of her. Before she knew it the birds were at her window again, she thought back to the feather from yesterday— and now she was back in her mood… Shiho sighed and got up from bed, remembering her solo practice with Ichika. As she checked her phone, she realized… she was gonna be late again. The now tardy bassist rushed into her closet, she grabbed a white tank top and a zip-up jacket to layer on. Luckily, her bass guitar was still in its case, so she swung it over and on her shoulder before rushing out her bedroom door.
”Shii, what are you in a rush for?” Shizuki caught her little sister at the door.
“Sorry! I have to go!—” Shiho rushes right under her sister before she can even react.
“Please be safe shii!” Her protective older sister yelled out before wondering what has gotten into her… (it's because she needs tickles duh…)
Shiho ran… then speed walked… to Ichika’s house. She knocks on the door and checks her phone to see shes only two minutes late…
“Hey Shiho!” The leader opened her door and welcomed Shiho into her home before heading up to Ichika’s room. Both girls set up their instruments and began their solo practice. Shiho was glad to get the chance to practice with only Ichika; not only was it a good chance to fix her timing, but it was also a chance for her to be alone with Ichika, something that was in the tickly dream. For the first few songs, Shiho was playing okay, but she started to slip up a couple of times. She was too busy staring at Ichika's nimble fingers… she knew Ichika would be the perfect person to cure this mood the bassist was having for more than a day now.
“Shiho?… are you okay? It looks like you're staring off into nothing…” Ichika stopped the music, placed her guitar down, and put her hands on her hips.
“I'm f-fine, what are you talking about?…” Shiho tried her best to cover the flustered tone in her voice and the blush that had slowly crept up on her. Ichika saw the look on her face and knew the same thing that had bothered her yesterday was still on her mind. She got up from her chair before sitting on her bed, patting the spot next to her, which was a way to signal Shiho to sit with her.
“What's wrong Shiho?… Something is on your mind, it was bothering you yesterday as well so we should talk about it” Ichika said gently but firmly. The last thing she wanted was for Shiho to bottle up her thoughts.
“Nothing is wrong, just thoughts on my mind…” Shiho muttered out, trying her best to not say too much as she wrapped her arms around her tummy and sides. Ichika thought for a moment, trying to come up with words to say.
“Can I help you try to relax? I have something that may worked that I used to do to Saki back in middle school… maybe it’ll make you feel better?” Shiho looked up from the ground.
“Like what?…” Shiho basically side eyed Ichika while she stared down at her with a smile.
”For this to work… take off your jacket and lay in my lap, okay?~” Ichika added a hint of tease in her voice, which, as predicted, made Shiho flinch with her blush more apparent on her face.
“Are you sure about this?…” As Shiho asked for confirmation, she was already taking off her jacket, leaving her in just her tank top, which she had gotten from a Miku concert that Leo/Need had gone to last year. Before she knew it, Ichika made her lie back, placing Shihos's torso directly into her leader's lap.
“I think I caught on to what you need right now, Shiho— Whoa!… I remember this concert like it was yesterday…” All of a sudden, Shiho caught on that she had started to nerd out about Miku once again… and this time she didn't even finish her sentence before nerding out! As Shiho relaxed, her head hanging onto Ichika's thigh, she felt not a sudden, but a slow and gentle poke right onto her tummy.
“W-what are you?!—” Shiho was shushed down by Ichika.
“Just relax, okay?~” Ichika whispered into her ear, making the normally calm and collective bassist blush even deeper. A smirk grew on the leader's face as she continued to nerd out with the flustered Shiho in her lap.
“THIS is the one we went to… and THIS is the one she where she popped out of the stage!… I wanted to go to that one so badly… and THIS one—” Ichika went on and on… with every time she said “this” she would run her nail down her tummy just enough to make her giggle.
“Ichi-k-kahahah!—” Shiho blurted out before her hands came slamming down on her mouth and face. She had suddenly remembered this was just like the dream she had… Shiho was at Ichika's mercy without any way of stopping her ticklish attack.
“Hmmmm… it seems like THIS location makes you giggle more?…here, let me try again!—” Ichika continued to tease the poor girl's tummy for another minute before gently slipping her hand under the sensitive girl's shirt. This made Shiho let out a sudden gasp as she felt nails dancing around her tummy, before just one finger targeted her navel.
“Ichikahehehehehe!— s-stopahahAHAHAHA—” Before the poor ticklish bassist could respond, Ichika had started scratching her ribs, attempting to “count” them.
“Come on, stop squirming!~ You’re making me start over~” Shiho couldn't help but squirm and buckle deeper into her leader's lap.
“G-GEHEHEHET OUT OF THEREHEHEHEHE!” The poor girl's laughter took over; her red face didn't help either…
“tickle tickle shiho~” Ichika teased softly into her ear, which only drove her more insane. Shiho attempted to block and grab onto Ichika’s wrists, which only exposed her armpits on accident. Ichika quickly saw the chance and dove, her nails digging into the hollows of her armpits.”
“Your skin is so smooth Im jealous!~” Shiho was finally getting what she wanted; she was getting tickled to bits just like she yearned for. She squirmed and wiggled for another few moments before Ichika slowed down and returned her nimble fingers to Shihos exposed tummy
“You know… for someone so blunt, you sure have a cute weakness~” Ichika had experience tickling as she used to tickle both Saki and Honami back in middle school, but Shiho would always end up staying far away when that would happen.
“Y- you are ruthlesshehehehe!” Shiho muttered through her giggles before Ichika’s attack finally came to a close.
“Did that help at all? I hope It wasnt too much!” Shiho sat up before yawning and immediately rested her head back into Ichika's lap. Her face flushed seeing Shiho like this… for someone so distant, she really likes to be tickled…
“I gotcha, don’t worry~ Your big secret is safe with me, okay? and you could ask for it whenever you want~” She gently combed through Shihos hair for a while, making sure she was fully relaxed. Shiho knew she was the blunt and serious one of the group, but it warmed her heart that she was finally able to be open with one of her friends about something so embarrassing.
