Can I request that Gn!reader basically being varians personal tickle monster but reader gets stuck in one of varians goo traps and can't wiggle out so varian trys to help but realizes he can tickle them back 10x worse and he finds they're giggles the cutest thing in the world so he trys to tickle them more so they get into tickle fights now instead of reader tickling variants randomly
Hi there! Omg yes! That’s such a cute idea! Hope this is what you had in mind!

You wandered into Varian’s lab, having found one of his books at their house. You had been planning to return it to Varian as a good friend would do. The only problem was that the lab was pitch black.
“Ugh, Varian turn on a light! Someone could trip and you're clumsy enough already- AAH!”
Whatever you were planning on saying next was cut off as you triggered one of Varian’s goo traps, and thus pinning you against the wall.
“Haha, yes my new trap works! Thanks Ruddi- Oh my gosh, Y/N! I’m so sorry I’ll get you out! Hang on!” As the lights flickered on, you were met with Varian’s sheepish grin.
This was a fairly normal occurrence in the lab. You walking into one of Varian’s experiments and ultimately becoming an unwitting test subject. You groaned and wriggled in your sticky trap and gave the alchemist an unimpressed look.
“Seriously? You could have warned me, Varian.”
Varian smiled shyly as he approached you.
“I know, I know. My bad. Let me get you down.”
“Much appreciated- h-hehehey! Watch where you poke!” You twisted awkwardly away as Varian’s fingers prodded your side as he attempted to peel the gunk off you. He grinned at you with mischievous intent. You knew that look all too well.
“Varian, just get me down!” You demanded, full well knowing he wasn’t going to.
“Oh no, Y/N. You aren’t going anywhere. I think it’s time for a little payback for all the times you’ve tickled me lately.”
“B-but I thought you liked it when I tickle you!” Varian snickers at your futile attempts to escape.
“Perhaps, but that doesn’t mean you get away with it.”
With that, Varian jabbed his fingers into your sides, eliciting a shriek.
“Aww, you’re so cute when you’re giggling, N/N! Keep it up! You’re gonna be here awhile.”
Combined with the tickling, Varian’s teasing was driving you mad. You should have known this day would come sooner rather than later. You just hadn’t expected Varian to be such a mean ler! Especially considering how he pretty much crumbled when roles were reversed.
“N-NO- ST-STAHAHAHA-PLEAHEA!” You were laughing to hard to even form a coherent sentence and when Varian dug into your tummy you lost all form of sanity and dissolved into giggles.
“Sorry, I don’t speak ticklish, Y/N. But if I had to guess, I’d say those absolutely precious giggles mean you’re enjoying yourself. Laugh if I’m correct.”
And laugh you did. You could barely breathe at that point and Varian seemed to notice that and slowly brought his tickling to a halt.
“Fuck…. You….” You breathed out through residual giggles. Varian smirked and rolled his eyes.
“Oh please, you know you enjoyed that. Now, let me get you down for real this time.”
After Varian let you down from the goo trap, you looked at him with a smirk.
“My turn.” You said. Before Varian could process that, you had tackled him and started tickling him mercilessly.
It was going to be a long day full of back and forth tickles, but you couldn’t complain.
And based on Varian’s shrieks of laughter when you attacked his tummy with raspberries, he couldn’t either.
