HEYA, SO, OBVIOUSLY, THIS IS A CHRISTMAS PROMPT IN CELEBRATIONS FOR @angivariety 's MILESTONE!! I am so proud of her, how can she consider me a friend when I'm not as superior to her in writing and talent? Qhdhhwhd anyways, hope you all enjoy!
Character's Used: Albedo, Bennett, Eula, Amber and the Traveler (Male MC in this one since Dani could perhaps see this qhxjwhdhw-)
"I'm just trying to warm you up." The head alchemist craddled Aether. He was currently rubbing the adventurer's tummy while he held him in a cuddling position, yet he didn't know it would effect him this much. Yes, he expected a giggle or two along with a flinch, but this? He was not expecting him to be a full on giggling mess, and to be honest, he found it adorable. "I cahan't hehehelp ihit!" Yelped the blonde as Albedo's leathery gloved hand reached the side of his taunt stomach.
He, Albedo, Eula, Bennett and Amber had been staying for the night since it was too dangerous to go at this time. Everyone knew this about Dragonspine. Bennett was out like a light, Amber chatting with Eula as she chatted back.
Whilst the fire had been started, they all relaxed, Aether, on the other hand, was still rather cold, so, he asked (shyly ofc) if he and Albedo could cuddle to warm up. At first, Albedo was a little flushed at such a sudden request, but just thought of him as if he was a taller Klee, so, he accepted, his heart squeezing as the smaller immediately went into his arm's.
But that's how Aether ended up like this. It was embarrassing as it caught the eye of Amber and Eula. Amber, of course, awed at the situation and called it adorable, but Eula was a little confused, "What is he laughing about?" Questioned the taller female, earning a mischievous smirk from her, "It's called tickling, and the traveler is the one who discovered his the definition of it in the dictionary!" She teased nonchalantly, earning a loud whine in reply. "Oh, how does it work?" She asked, and hoo boy, was Aether in for it now.
First accidental tickles now on purpose!? How could it get any worser (better)? Amber got out of her seat, stretched and joined in, just a poke to his side and he released a yelp, squirming, earning a tiny smile from the head alchemist. Eula had decided to join in as she was curious. First Albedo rubbing his tummy, Amber poking and squeezing at his side's, and now Eula was curiously scribbling under his arm's. And Aether howled. He threw his head back into Albedo's chest and erupted into a laughing paradise, his laughter was so high pitched yet so addicting, you couldn't help but smile and relax after hearing such. Arm's thrown down, jerking into teasing pokes and prods, how bad could it be? Apparently, very bad.
His laughter awoken Bennett as his eye's went focused on the task at hand, he knew Bennett would definetely be involved, and he couldn't help but laugh more to see him smirk and come closer.
"Awh, our traveler friend is so happy! Let's see- oh, it worked!" Bennett giggled, acting surprised as he wiggled his index finger into his giggle button, his remaining finger's scribbling around the area whilst he sat on his hip's.
"BWAHAHAHAH!! GUHUYS, W-WAHAIT!! DOHON'T! STOHOP IHIT!" "Don't stop? Not planning too, hehe!" Amber butted in, greedily spidering her finger's all over his sides, Albedo's rubbing turning into light scribbles, as if he was playing the ukulele. And Eula? She realized what was going on and scribbled more, before going slower and gentler after Bennett told her it affects him the most like that. And so, Aether's grave was dug up, from wanting warmth to being the heat source. Everyone cuddling up near the campfire and falling asleep, he couldn't ask for anything better.
