Day 27: Non-Human Parts
Tom Nook comes over to Nook's Cranny, to see how the twins are doing. When talking about their day, Tommy brings up a funny story, that Timmy isn't nearly as fond of...This, naturally, leads to a bunch of tomfoolery.
I FINISHED THE LAST TICKLETOBER FANFIC! I'M DONE DAY 31! I'M DONE! I'm gonna get them all uploaded here, probably right now so I can get them done and out of the way. HALLELUJAH! WOOOO! I'm so glad I got them done! And during exams, no less! I hope you all enjoy!
Tom Nook opened the door to the Nook’s Cranny, and looked up to see the twins. “Hello Timmy, hello Tommy.” Tom greeted.
“Hi Nook!” Both the twins greeted him.
“How was work?” Timmy asked.
“Work went well. [Player] paid off the loan!” Tom reacted.
“That’s great!” Both the twins responded.
“We sold 8 things today!” Tommy declared.
“We sold 3 items from the display, and 5 items from the cabinet.” Timmy told Tom.
“That’s good to hear.” Tom reacted. “Did [Player] have anything to sell?”
Timmy and Tommy looked at each other, before nodding their heads. “Yeah…[Player] sold 71 items today, making a total of 144,390 bells today.” Timmy told Tom.
“Wonderful to hear, yes, yes.” Tom responded.
“[Player] told us that they went on a plane ride with Wilber today.” Tommy admitted.
“Oh really?” Tom responded.
“Yeah! And [Player] even ran into Gulliver.” Timmy admitted.
“Gulliver? Again?” Tom looked at Timmy and Tommy, confused. “What happened to him this time?” He asked.
“The same thing that happens every time.” Timmy told him. “He fell overboard.”
“Well, I figured that. But…how?” Tom asked next.
Tommy giggled. “He and his crewmates got into a tickle fight, and he fell overboard!” He explained.
“Oh goodness…” Tom muttered. “Well, that is a story, indeed.” He admitted.
“It’s the funniest story so far.” Tommy admitted.
“Falling overboard is funny to you?” Timmy asked.
“No…But being tickled into falling overboard is pretty funny, hehe!” Tommy admitted.
“Is it?” Tom smiled and sat down at the stool behind the cash register.
“A little bit.” Tommy admitted.
Timmy cleared his throat. “Tommy…” Timmy turned to look at his brother. “Imagine running around the boat, just having a tickle fight…and then next thing you know, you’re in the water.” Timmy described.
“That sounds so fun!” Tommy reacted.
“Fun?” Tom asked with a smile, just watching the two twins debate.
“No way…that doesn’t sound fun to me.” Timmy admitted.
“Well…It could be because Tommy likes swimming and you don’t.” Tom explained to Timmy.
“It’s not about the swimming…” Timmy admitted.
“Oh?” Tom tilted his head.
Tommy leaned closer to his twin brother. “Is it the tickle-tickle-tickles?” Tommy teased, wiggling his paws.
Timmy squeaked and covered his snout. “Nooooo!” He whined.
“What’s wrong, Timmy?” Tommy asked. “Is someone…scared?” He teased, gasping and cupping his own cheeks.
“Tommy…” Tom warned.
“What? I’m telling the truth!” Tommy reacted. “And the truth is…Timmy’s ticklish~” Tommy teased, wiggling his paws at him again.
“Tommy, stop!” Timmy whined.
“But Tommy, you’re not telling the truth in a nice way.” Tom told him.
“Yeah! So stop it!” Timmy ordered.
Tommy smirked and poked his side. “Boop!”
“eEEK! TOMMY!” Timmy growled and took off towards him.
Sensing that Timmy was trying to get him, Tommy took off running the other way. “aAH!” He shrieked and ran away from him in a circle. “NO!”
“Can’t take what you dish out, Tommy?” Tom asked him, smirking a little.
“Tom, NO!” Tommy yelled as he kept running from his twin brother.
“Get back here!” Timmy yelled, before tackling him down. “Gotcha!”
“Timmy!” Tommy yelped and squealed as his belly was attacked. “DOHON’T! PLEHEHEASE STAHAHAP!” Tommy begged.
“Oh wow…He really can’t.” Tom muttered, surprised.
“Yeah! It’s because he’s so much more ticklish than me!” Timmy admitted. “BEHEHE QUIHIHIET!” Tommy yelled.
“Nah…I don’t think I will~” Timmy declared, tickling his belly with both of his claws. “Kitchy kitchy kitchy kitchy koo~” He teased.
“TIHIHIHIMMYYY!” Tommy squealed and shook his head. “STAHAHAHAP IHIHIT!”
“Stop what?” Timmy asked, giggling.
“STAHAHAP TIHICKLING MEEHEHEHEE!” Tommy laughed and tried to get away. But when he turned himself over, he lost his footing and fell onto his bottom. “Ow…” Tommy muttered for a moment…Only for Timmy to go RIGHT BACK to tickling. “NonONOHOHOHO! HAHAHAHA!” Tommy leaned back to the ground, and cackled in a super high-pitched voice.
“Oh my…” Tom stared as Timmy completely wrecked his twin brother. “P-Perhaps we can pause this fight and head back home?” Tom asked them.
“No way!” Timmy declared. “This is so much fun!” He told Tom rather happily.
“It might be for you…” Tom told him. “But what about Tommy?”
“Tommy said that being tickled is funny!” Timmy admitted. “And…I can see it now. It IS pretty funny!” Timmy admitted.
“He meant in the context of being tickled and falling overboard.” Tom told him.
Timmy looked at Tommy. “Did you really mean it like that?” Timmy asked him.
“HAHAHA- YEHEHEHES!” Tommy admitted.
“Alright! Then I’m allowed to tickle him!” Timmy declared before moving his paws up to his ears.
“eeEEEEHEEHEEEK! NOHO EEEHEHEHEEARS!” Tommy whined and tried to cover up his ears, but to no avail.
“But I want to!” Timmy declared. “Your giggles are really funny!” Timmy admitted next.
“Are they even giggles at this point?” Tom asked him.
“I mean, yeah. What else could they be?” Timmy asked.
“They sound more like squeals by this point.” Tom admitted. “Hmmm…Nah.” Timmy traced one finger up the back of his brother’s little raccoon ear. This made a big, high-pitched squeal leave the poor twin’s mouth. Timmy looked at Tom proudly. “Now THAT is a Tommy squeal!” He declared.
Tom chuckled and shook his head. He didn’t expect Timmy to be such a mischievous raccoon! I mean, Tom knew all too well how playful Tommy can be, but Timmy? He’s used to Timmy taking a back seat to the showmanship and helping with the behind-the-scenes stuff of the business. So to say Tom Nook was impressed by his charisma, would be understating it.
“PLEHEHEHEASE HEHEHELP!” Tommy yelled. “IHIHI’M SOHOHORRYYYY!”
“Sorry for what?” Timmy asked him casually. “FOHOHOR TEEHEHEASING YOHOHOHOU!” Tommy shouted back.
“Hmmmm…” Timmy looked Tommy up and down, and slowly smirked. “Nah.” He shoved his paws into his underarms. “I don’t think you’ve learned your lesson yet.”
Tom widened his eyes as an exclamation point went off over his head. “Oh my…You’re really not forgiving him?” Tom asked him.
“Well, why would I?” Timmy asked.
“He just apologized to you. Maybe a little mercy would be nice.” Tom told him.
“Do you know how many times Tommy has apologized to me, only for him to go right back to the same stupid pranks?” Timmy asked Tom. “I’m not forgiving him that easily.”
Tom smirked and walked up. “Then let me help.” He spoke up.
Timmy and Tommy both looked at Tom, surprised.
“NO!” Tommy shouted.
“Wait, really?! You wanna help?!” Timmy asked him, sounding excited.
“Well…” Tom gently picked up Tommy. “At least let me get him off your back.” Tom told him.
“NO, NO, NO! UNFAIR! UN-” Tommy’s words quickly paused the moment he saw his paws touch the floor. “-fair…” Tommy looked up as Tom let go of him. “What-?”
“Wait, WHAT?!” Timmy screeched as he was suddenly picked up by Tom Nook, and tickled all over his neck and ears. “eeEEEHEEHEHEHEHEE!” Timmy squealed.
“Now THAT is a REAL squeal!” Tom declared. “This appears to be my first time hearing such a sound leave your mouth.” Tom reacted.
“NOHOHOHOHO!” Timmy yelled.
“Oh, yes-yes. Indeed it is.” Tom admitted.
“Wow…Thanks Tom!” Tommy reacted, somewhat surprised by his involvement. “No problem, Tommy.” He responded. “Now, how ticklish is this little neck of yours?” Tom asked the boy, going for the back of Timmy’s neck next. “NonoNOHOHOHAHAHA! BAHAHAHA!” Timmy’s ears flopped back slightly as he tried to hide his neck. “TOM PLEEEHEEEHEEEHEEASE!”
“Poor little baby…Can’t handle what you dish out, hmm?” Tom teased.
And that is exactly why the shop ended up closing half an hour later than expected.
