The sun was dipping below the horizon, painting the G.U.N. rooftop balcony in soft orange hues. Shadow stood alone, arms crossed, silently watching the clouds drift. His brows were knit as always, like he had too many thoughts for one head to carry.
Of course, that’s exactly when Rouge decided to sneak up behind him.
“You know,” she purred, suddenly leaning over his shoulder, “for someone with ‘ultimate’ reflexes, you sure don’t notice when I’m standing behind you~”
Shadow didn’t jump, but his shoulders definitely twitched. “Hmph. I sensed you.”
“Sure you did~” Rouge smirked, stepping closer. “And I bet you’d also sense if I did… this.”
Before he could ask, her gloved fingers skittered up his sides.
“Gh—!” Shadow jerked like he’d been shocked, grabbing at her wrists too late. “Rouge—!”
“Ooohohoho~ someone’s ticklish tonight~” she cooed.
“I am not.” he gritted, glaring with a red-tinged face.
Rouge only grinned wider. “You so are. You get all stiff like a statue and your ears twitch when I hit the right spots~” she teased, fingers spidering back to his ribs just to prove it. “Look at you—!”
Shadow let out a sharp snort and twisted in her grip, trying to turn away, but Rouge wasn’t letting up. Her fingers danced along his waist, brushing up under his arms where his black and red fur quivered like crazy.
“Nnngh—! R-Rouge! I swear—!”
“You swear what, hon?” she chuckled, looping an arm around his middle and tickling under his arm with the other. “You’ll scowl at me harder? Gasp dramatically? Try to teleport away with tears in your eyes?”
“Y-YOU’RE RIDICULOUS—!!” Shadow barked through grit teeth, struggling with everything he had not to laugh.
Rouge pressed her cheek to his shoulder and just wiggled her fingers slowly against his belly. “You love it~ You need this~ C’mon, let it out—give me that cute laugh you always try to bury~”
And with a final little boop to his side—Shadow broke.
“PHHH—AHAHAH!! G-GHHhK—! I cahahan’t—!!” he wheezed, face going scarlet as he bent over and grabbed the rail with trembling hands. His knees gave out, and Rouge guided them both down to sit, snickering the whole way.
“There he is~ My grumpy little hedgie puddle~”
“Y-you’re… insufferable…” he mumbled between giggles, face buried in her shoulder now.
(I was inspired by your ask and I thought it was so funny that I had to make a story about it! I hope you enjoy this! Also, Dinobot has a tail in his original form for this story! XD
Yep.
It’s official.
This is the worst thing that has ever happened to Rattrap.
It started like any other day for him. On another mission with Dinobot in their beast modes. Having another argument with Dinobot. But then something new happened. Dinobot poked Rattrap in his furry stomach during their fighting, causing an involuntary smile and squeak to slip out. Rattrap quickly covered his mouth, but it was already too late. The shock on Dinobot’s face melted away into realization and a sadistic grin.
Rattrap tried to run for his life, but it’s impossible to outrun a raptor. The former predacon pounced on his victim and wasted no time, flipping Rattrap on his back and wiggling his claws into Rattrap stomach with surprising gentleness. Rattrap let out a shriek so loud and high-pitch, it could break glass. The shriek was quickly followed by screaming laughter. The uncontrollably, cackling Rattrap struggled and wiggled as much as he could as Dinobot dug his fingers into his victim’s rib cage. At this point, tears were streaming down the rat’s face.
Rattrap couldn’t take it anymore. He babbled apologies for his insults and begged for mercy. But Dinobot had no mercy this time and continued to torment his poor teammate for a whole hour. However, Dinobot did stop once he noticed that Rattrap was about to pass out from the lack of oxygen. Due to them being part organic, they all need to breathe just like a normal organic. And Rattrap took in many large, deep gulps of air as he lay on the ground.
Dinobot transformed into his original form and rubbed the rodent’s furry belly in mocking comfort and purred into his ear that this was only the beginning.
For the first time in Rattrap’s life, he was truly afraid of Dinobot.
Ever since then, Dinobot used this secret of Rattrap’s to win every argument. And it doesn’t stop there, cause whenever Rattrap and Dinobot are alone in the hall, Dinobot would playfully poke Rattrap until he’s a giggling mess. Then during one of the meetings with the other maximals, Dinobot would wrap his lizard tail around one of Rattrap’s feet under the table and use the tip of his tail to wiggle of the rodent’s foot.
Rattrap slapped a hand on his mouth so hard it actually hurt, but not even that could stop the team from hearing the muffled snickers. Dinobot smiled smugly at him, while Optimus, Rhinnox and Cheetor looked at him in concern. Rattrap used his other hand to claw the underside of the desk and pretend it was Dinobot’s stupid face. Rattrap froze when he felt Cheetor gently rub his back.
“Rattrap, are you okay? You look sick! Are you gonna throw up?” his friend asked.
Still feeling the tail tickling his foot, he took deep breathes, removed his hand from his mouth and summoned all the willpower he had not to laugh anymore, but he couldn’t fight the big, shaky smile on his face. He slowly turned his head to Cheetor and the youngest maximal flinched and took a step back at the look on Rattrap’s face. His grin looked almost psychotic and his crimson eyes blazed with pure rage.
“I-I’m o-o-okay, k-ki-kid.” Rattrap stuttered in voice that sounded like he was desperately holding something back. Dinobot must have really made him mad
When Optimus finished the meeting, Rattrap bolted to his room and slammed the door shut. He refused to come out for the rest of the day. And that was only describing the first week of torment. It’s been a month now and the torture continues.
Dinobot may not be ticklish, but someday Rattrap will find a way to make him pay for his crimes…
Summary: While Pomni is out on an evening stroll with Ragatha, she seems to encounter a wild tickle monster! But this isn’t no ordinary tickle monster, rather, it’s a weretickle monster according to Caine. Can the rest of the crew survive the night? Or succome to a rather tickly fate?
Ft. Caine, Bubble, Gangle, Zobble, Kinger, Ragatha, Jax, and Pomni
A/N: Been a while since I made a TADC fic, also this fic was supposed to been made and released last month but unfortunately, I was too busy at the time. But hope you guys are still hungry for some werewolf action! >:3
Enjoy! ^oᴥo^⍝❤️💙
Warning(s): mild cursing, minor injury mention, pink ooze drips out but its not blood, this is a sfw tickle fic, Don’t like keep scrolling
“Thanks for letting me join you Ragatha.” Pomni smiled as she followed her friend
“Oh it was nothing really, I understand how the circus can be a little overwhelming after a day of adventuring.” Ragatha smiled as she continued walking
The two were taking a nightly stroll in the woods near the circus after another day of Caine’s adventures. Ragatha asked the ringleader if she could maybe go out for a walk, and seeing an opportunity to get out of the circus tent, Pomni couldn’t let that chance pass.
“Yeah, I needed a break. Coming back from an adventure that dealt with neon colors only to see more bright colors can mess up anybody’s eyes.” Pomni chuckled out “Especially colors like light blue, purple…colors that move in a way.”
Ragatha chuckled at her friend’s tiny rant on colors before looking up at the starry night sky, taking in the fresh cool air as it blew following a trail of leaves flowing through the wind. Although everything was simulated, it felt real to her.
Speaking of…
“So, how’s adapting to the circus been? I know you’ve had quite a few…misadventures here and there, but other than that, how have you been feeling?” Rathatha asked as she turned to Pomni again, who snapped out of her previous rant when her name was called
“Oh! Well things have been going good actually! Sure I faced ghosts, bandits, and gloinks so far but at least I have people to relate to.” Pomni smiled “So I’m getting use to the wackiness on this place so far!”
Snap!
The jester and ragdoll froze. Silence fell as they looked around to find the source of the sound, both reasonably afraid.
“Wh-what was that? Ragatha you said there weren’t any other creatures in here besides birds.” Pomni shuddered as she huddled close to Ragatha shaking like a leaf
“I-I did! But they only come out during the day! Maybe it’s just Jax messing with us..yeah! He does this all the time when I’m taking a walk!”
“Jax! Come on out! If you were planning on scaring us it worked!” The ragdoll shouted out, only to get silence in return “J-Jax, this isn’t funny anymore, seriously come out!”
Another round of silence took place in the woods as she waited for the purple rabbit’s response. Only to get none…whoever was out here wasn’t Jax, and possibly wasn’t friendly at all.
“Pomni, I think we should head back to the tent…” Ragatha informed as she slowly started to back away
“Y-yeah..let’s just go while we still ca—AAAH?!!” Pomni couldn’t get her sentence out before she was suddenly tackled to the ground from behind by a blue of white
“Pomni!” Ragatha shouted
Whatever tackled was quite fluffy and soft, as she wasn’t hurt at all besides from the rough landing. The jester groaned before she was quickly picked up and turned around by the creature that tackled her, earning a squeaky yelp in protest. All she could see was its grinning snout as its pointed ears perked up from the jester’s squeak.
Before she could do anything, it placed her in a cradling position.
“H-hey! Let me dohohohown! Hehehehey stohohop!” Pomni giggled out as the creature scittered its claws around her midsection “Ragathahaha!! HEhehelp mehe!”
Upon hearing her friend in giggly distress, the ragdoll quickly went up to the creature holding her hostage. Only for the creature to unintentionally wack its wagging tail at her.
“Ow! Hey quit it! Let Pomni go!” Ragatha shouted
“HeheheHAHAHA! NOHOT THEHEHERE PleHAHASE!!” Pomni shrieked as the claws dipped in between her ribs
The creature showed no signs of stopping as it only cooed adoringly at her reaction, making its tail wag even harder.
The tickling stopped when the creature suddenly yelped out of fear. Pomni looked up with teary eyes only to see Ragatha welding a large stick before she firmly tapped it on the head again.
“Go on! Let my friend go! And get out of here!” the ragdoll sternly said, threatening to hit the creature again
In response, it whined and released the little jester before running away back into the woods. After making sure the creature was gone for good, Ragatha dropped the stick before rushing to Pomni to help her up.
“huf huff…Thanks.” Pomni said with a tired smile
“Any time, are you okay? Are you hurt? Do you need a bandage or anything?” Ragatha asked as she checked and make sure Pomni didn’t have any hidden injuries
“I’m fine Ragatha, it only tickled me..” Pomni flushed “I’m sure it didn’t mean any harm.”
“Well say that to this scratch…”
Pomni was confused until she looked at her arm, and lo and behold, a small slash mark decorated her arm. A small stream of pink liquid beaded out of the wound as the two stared in shock and horror.
“Please don’t tell me we have to see Caine about this…” Pomni pleaded
“I’m sorry Pomni, it looks like we have to. He is the expert in all this.”
Pomni groaned at the thought of Caine looking into her injury. He may be the leading AI of this world, but even he doesn’t know everything about it, what makes Ragatha think he knew about this?
-[…]-
“Hm…” Caine hummed as he observed Pomni’s cut, which made her and Ragatha even more nervous than they were when they told him about it.
Eventually, he released the jester’s arm before gesturing Bubble to give him the clipboard his assistant was writing on. The ringleader then read the notes only to shake his head.
“This is worse than I thought..” Caine said aloud
“Really?!” Pomni panicked as she stared at Caine “W-what’s gonna happen to me?!”
“Something bad..really really bad.” Caine continued “Even I can’t save you..”
“Oh for the love of all things holy, would you just tell them what’s going on?” Jax interrupted in an annoyed tone as he watched the group go on with this dramatic act Caine wrapped them into
The four were in a makeshift doctor’s room Caine created to check Pomni’s injury. Though unfortunately, the room was only a piece of a corner, which was in the living room where everyone was.
The ringleader cleared his throat before adjusting his head mirror. “Ah thank you for reminding me Jax! I can get in the zone when I take on serious roles, wouldn’t want my acting skills to rust out!”
The rabbit groaned.
“Anyways, it seems like you two encountered a weretickle monster.” Caine informed
“‘Weretickle monster’?” Pomni and Ragatha repeated back confused, but from the name of it, they knew it wouldn’t be good
“Why do I have the feeling that I don’t wanna know about this thing?”
“Well you all might as well listen up because you might need this information for later!” Bubble chimed in before taking back the clipboard
“A weretickle monster is a creature that feeds off of their victim’s laughter once caught! They only come out at night due to the whole transformation thing though, it’s actually a rare sight to see them!”
“Let alone get infected..” Caine chimed in looking at the injury again “They usually don’t do that unless it accidentally nicked your arm while tickling you Pomni.”
“Can’t you just heal it?” Zooble interjected
“Well while I can heal the injury, I can’t stop the effects from happening.” Caine explained
Ragatha stood silently as she suddenly remembered the moment when she fought off the creature. She must have startled it to where one of its claws scratched Pomni, feeling guilty she looked down in shame. Her train of thought was broken when she heard the jester shout.
“Wait so I’m stuck like this?!! Am I gonna transform into a werewolf every night forever?!!!” Pomni asked frantically, almost pulling at her hair had it not been for Caine floating by and gently squeezing her hands to reassure her
“Now now dear, it’s only for one night! Once the next day comes, you’ll be good as new!”
The moment Caine explained this to Pomni, a certain look was caught in his eyes, one that only meant trouble, one than meant…
“Say, that gives me a great idea!” Caine suddenly shouted
The group groaned, there it was.
“Oh God Caine, don’t tell me…”
“That’s right my lovelies! I’m making a new stay at home adventure! ‘Night of the Tickle Monster’!” Caine exclaimed before the title popped up behind him “It’s simple! Avoid Were Pomni at all costs until sunrise, and you might win a prize! It’s almost like a sleepover!”
“But haven’t we adventured enough for today?” Gangle asked as she tried and failed to fix her comedy mask, she flinched when Caine suddenly flew to her
“You can never have too many adventures in one day Gangle! Now what I have here is Bubble’s book of monsters, it might come handy to you all in the future.” Caine pulled out a rather thick book before tossing it to see which of the circus members grabs it first, which Ragatha instinctively catches it.
“Now, me and Bubble are gonna hit the hay. It’s getting a bit late for us.” Caine yawned as he and bubble’s outfits suddenly changed into classic sleeping wear with a snap of his fingers “Good luck now!”
“Wait Caine I—!” Before Ragatha could mutter out another word, the two suddenly disappeared into thin air
The ragdoll let out a small groan before looking at Pomni, who was still slightly panicking at both her diagnosis and this “game” Caine made for the night. She snapped back to her senses when she felt Ragatha place a hand on her shoulder.
“Pomni I’m so sorry, this was all my fault…had I not scared that thing, then you wouldn’t have gotten infected.”
“And not make this into a stupid ga—Ow!” Jax was elbowed harshly by Zooble before shutting up
“Not helping, but it’s not really your fault Rags.” Zooble said “We all didn’t know that thing existed until tonight.”
“Plus we didn’t know it can infect people through claws.” Kinger added
“Yeah, it’s fine Ragatha. How about we all just…go to bed? I think this scratch is making me tired.” Pomni said as she yawned
“Yeah, that sounds like a great idea.”
The others agreed as they started to move. Surely the Jester could sleep off the infection right?
-[Later on…]-
-[3:00 AM, Pomni’s room….]-
This was harder than she thought.
Pomni started at the ceiling, hoping it would send her to back to sleep again. Not even a few hours later after heading to bed, she was wide awake. She tried almost everything to get back to sleep, only for majority to fail as she was forced to stare at the ceiling.
She couldn’t go out to get anything to drink neither since she and the others barricaded the room in by placing heavy items in front of her door in case she turned. Pomni even went further by locking her door and placing items infront if her door from the inside.
She turned and looked down at her bandaged arm, a small sticker was placed there as a ‘Get well soon!’ gift. She chuckled a little looking at it; although Caine can be a bit clueless, he knows when to cheer them up.
A swift wave of lightheadedness came on to Pomni, a groan following as she was forced to stand up. Luckily, it wasn’t long before the feeling ceased, however, it wasn’t long before she felt itchy.
She looked down at her arm before suddenly seeing…
“Fur?”
Pomni continued to scratch before finally taking off the bandage, letting some of the fur free.
She started to pace around, her fingers making a grabbing motion as if to get something, to catch it.
The jester stopped pacing as her new wild eyes laid onto a stuffed teddy bear. Without hesitation, she pounced onto the stuffed animal before spidering her newfound claws around its belly as she wagged her tail from side to side.
She wanted to share this feeling with the others, no…she needed to.
She stopped tickling the stuffed animal before looking around for an escape, giggling as she did so. She looked at the room’s exit only to find it was locked and barricaded with stuff.
She huffed before her ears perked at the sound of air flowing. The jester cackled like a madwoman before ripping open the vents and climbing inside. The sound of small bells jingling echoed throughout the ventilation system as she crawled deeper into it.
-[3:45 AM, Gangle’s room….]-
Gangle slept soundly as she wrapped her ribbons around her stuffed animal in her soft bed. While the others were talking earlier on, she finally managed to fix her comedy mask before heading to bed, things were finally looking up for her.
That was until she heard the sound of faint, echoing laughter.
Gangle shot up from her bed upon hearing the noise, almost knocking over her fixed mask from her desk before she grabbed it at the last minute. The laughter picked up again, this time louder and creepily closer. Gangle quickly looked to see where it was coming from, only to find nothing.
She knew better than to watch that horror anime before bed. Now she was hearing things.
The mask was about to head to sleep once more before something creak from her ceiling. She quickly ignored it figuring it was the vent gate being loose again, mentally noting to tell Caine about it in the morning, before she heard something else fell.
Clang! THUD!
…That vent gate was never that heavy..
Gangle slowly turned to where the vent was only to find a shadowed figure standing right above it, the figure almost looked like…
“P-Pomni? Is that you?” Gangle whimpered out as she trembled at the sight of the stranger
The figure didn’t answer, only giggling to herself. That giggling turned into laughter as she got louder, showing her sharp teeth and sharp claws before running towards Gangle’s bed on all fours and pouncing on top of the frighted mask.
-[4:15 AM, Resident hall….]-
It was around four in the morning when the four circus members heard Gangle’s scream.
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!”
They all got out of their rooms before rushing towards Gangle’s room. Zooble was the first to reach her door before banging against the surface.
“Gangle! Gangle are you okay?! What’s going on in there?!!!” Zooble shouted with concern laced in their words
“Relax mix match, she’s probably saw something scary and shattered her mask again. Classic crybaby.” Jax yawned, slightly chuckling at the thought
“Maybe she had a nightmare?” Kinger piped up “I always have night terrors after an adventure, especially a scary one.”
“Wait…Pomni’s room was really quiet when I passed by..you don’t think that she escaped do you?” Ragatha asked, causing the trio to pause
“Uh…maybe she’s a heavy sleeper? There’s no way she escaped that easily with all that stuff in front of her door, she’s too weak.” Jax commented
“AHAHAHAHAHAHA!! NO STAHAHAHAP!! POHOHOMNIHIHI!! SOHOHOMEBODY HEHELP!!” The muffled voice cackled once again before it dissolved into more giggly hysterics
“I stand corrected.”
“Come on, we gotta open that door!” Ragatha said before Zooble and Kinger used their bodies to burst into the room
The four gazed inside the room to see a horrible sight to some. Pomni was on top of Gangle, using her weight to pin her down as she danced her claws on where her sides and ribs would be. To make the situation even worse, she was also giggling along with her victim as if she was also getting tickled.
Through mirthful eyes, Gangle was able to notice the four in her room. She weakly reached out her ribboned hand towards them.
“BWAHAHAHAHAHA!! GUHUHUYS HEHEHELP MEHEHE!!!”
Upon hearing her playmate cry out for help, Pomni thankfully stopped and turned around to see more people in the room, her new appearance startling them.
“P-Pomni?” Ragatha muttered
The jester only grinned before hopping off the bed and speedily towards them. The group yelped before she hoped back into the vents with her newfound fluffy tail being the last to follow.
The circus members stood in silence before Zooble and Ragatha ran to Gangle to help her recover from their friend’s attack. Gangle was fine, only a little tired from the surprise tickle session she received, however she was now “out” of Caine’s game thanks to that.
“Well, now that we know that Pomni’s in the vents, we should hide in my fort. It’s the best place to hide in, plus I don’t think there’s any vents near it either.” Kinger suggested, earning nods of agreement. Hopefully she won’t get them there.
-[5:20 A.M., Living Quarters, Kinger’s Pillow Fort….]-
“Great, so now we have a tickle monster on the loose.” Jax chimed in unamused as he leaned on a pile of pillows
“Well it’s only for one night, so long as we avoid her then we should be fine” Ragatha assured
“Yeah…survive till 6 A.M., that’s nice.”
“Wait, Ragatha that book Caine gave you. Maybe it has something useful.” Zooble pointed out
“You’re right!” The ragdoll exclaimed before pulling out the book and began to flip the pages, passing by the other horrible monsters as she did so
“Come on…weretickle monster…got it!” She finally stopped on the page with the picture of the fluffy creature, some of the fur was taped onto the picture, no doubt that Bubble possibly snagged it somehow
As she read the information on the monster, she began to realize that there wasn’t much to stop Pomni from her tickly rampage; the others could tell as well seeing the way the ragdoll’s face turned into a disappointed frown.
“Well, there isn’t much we can do,” Ragatha sighed “But here’s one good piece off info we can use; ‘if a weretickle monster catches you and you’re at your limit, just say, “I give up!” or “You win!”. These monsters love to play competitively and think you’re part of their game. It is best to avoid them if you don’t have the time for their funny business.’”
“Or we just sock her if she gets too close.” Jax suggested with a grin
“Jax! That’s still Pomni! She’s still in there!” Ragatha exclaimed with a glare
“All I’m saying is if that Jester even thinks about coming near me, it won’t be my fault if she gets punted into tomorrow. Simple defense.”
“Hopefully that won’t happen, so long as she can’t find us here. Hopefully her brain’s scrambled enough by the infection that she can’t remember this place.” Zooble commented as they peaked out of the fort for any sign of the little jester
“Actually, canines can remember things for a surprisingly long time, almost for a decade even! Especially with—“ Kinger was silenced by Zooble placing a gloved hand where his mouth would be
“Shh…be quiet! You guys hear that?” They whispered as silence fell heavy, waiting for the sound to come back again
Jingle…jingle…jingle
She was close…too close
Jingle jingle jingle
Every jingle her bells rang throughout the circus ground, led her closer to their hideout. The four tensed as each jingle getting faster.
Jingle! Jingle!
There was silence. No more bells were heard as all fell silent. The four relaxed half way, straining their ears for any slight noises as they waited. Nothing came.
“O-okay, I think she’s go—AAAHH!!!” Kinger screamed as he was suddenly tackled to the pillowy surface, the rest of the pillows flew as their hideout was discovered by the jester.
Pomni cackled as her tail wagged from catching the oldest member, the rest of the group shrieked from the surprise attack before they got up and ran. Leaving Kinger to fend for himself.
“Wait what about Kinger?!”
“He’s long gone doll face now just run!” Jax shouted
-[5:00 AM, living quarters, Ventilation system, 20 minutes before Hideout breach….]-
It had been around twenty or so minutes since Pomni entered the vents again to follow after her friends, though it felt like forever since she wanted to play again.
Eventually the were jester finds another vent opening that lead into the open grounds of the circus, but most times they act as the living quarters of their new home. She looked around the area for any sign of her friends anywhere only to come up short.
She almost gave up had it not been for the sound of muffled chatter coming from a distance away. Her pointed ears perked up at the noise before grinning and going back on all fours, trotting towards the sound. The bells from her costume echoing throughout the circus.
Jingle…jingle…jingle
She slowed to a creep once she was close to the area that held the chatter. Making sure she made little to no noise, however when she got too close, the chatter ceased.
Jingle jingle jingle
She crept closer towards the strange structure, using her small snout to sniff it before she quickly stepped back to strike.
Jingle! Jingle!
She held still as she waited for her friends to be pulled into a false sense of security, waiting for the chatter to continue. And she didn’t have to wait for long as her oldest friend spoke first. That was when it was time to strike.
Without hesitation, Pomni pounced onto Kinger as she burst through the hideout, pillows flying everywhere as she and Kinger wrestled with one another, not noticing the others fleeing from the scene.
“Ah! Pomni! Let go!” Kinger pleaded as he tried and failed to get her off
Not long after, Pomni finally struck, clawing at the chess piece’s stomach, causing him to snort in surprise
“Snrk—! Pohohomni waihihit! I-I’m a bit tihihicklish thehehere!” Kinger giggled “Stohohop!”
Unfortunately, Pomni relented as she continued to playfully tickle her father figure. No matter how hard he bucked and squirmed, she would still hang on, almost like a leach
It wasn’t until Pomni nuzzled into his neck when he really started to buck and squirm.
“HEHEHEHEHEHAHAHAHAHA!! POHOHOMNI! NOHOHO!!” Kinger guffawed as he delve back into hysterical laughter, of course, the were jester only giggled as she continued
Not being able to take it anymore, Kinger raised his hands in a surrender.
“HAHAHAHAHAHA!! OKAY!! OHOHOKAY! I GIVE UP!!”
After hearing those words, Pomni finally stopped her attack as she stood proudly, winning yet another game with her friends. That was two friends down, three more to hunt down.
The were jester hopped off of Kinger, nuzzling him as a way of saying goodbye before she howled and ran after the rest. The piece sighed and chuckled from the ghost tickles before slumping back to the ground, he’ll just lie here for a second.
-[5:35 AM, Playpen area….]-
Jax ran as fast as his legs could carry him as he slid from corner to corner of the area, trying to lose Pomni as she was hot on his tail. After the ambush, the group ended up splitting out of panic, Jax entered the playpen area just to find higher ground to get away from the were jester, however just as he was about to close the room’s door, she managed to slip right in.
And so the chase ensued.
“Why couldn’t you just chase after jigsaw puzzles over there?!” Jax asked in an irritated tone, only earning chortles from Pomni through her sharp teeth
Jax searched for something, anything to help him get away from the were jester. His eyes landed on a play net just a few feet above them, if he timed it right, he could hop his way to safety.
As they reached the area, Jax used his legs to leap onto the net, just a few inches from missing as he pulled himself up the platform. He poked his head out to watch as Pomni tried and failed to leap after him. Eventually she started to whine before she sat there, waiting for her playmates to come down.
“Whine all ya want mutt, I’m not coming back down so you can get me.” Jax grinned as he leaned back and relaxed
“Man, and I was hoping that she’d catch you.” a familiar voice rang, startling the rabbit to nearly fall off the edge
“Zooble?! Why’re you here?!” Jax exclaimed as he righted himself back
“Same reason you have.” Zooble explained
“Well, this is my hiding spot now mix match, go find another one.” Jax told off before trying to push them off
“What?! No way! I was here first!” Zooble glared as they retaliated by also trying to push the rabbit off
As they both fought to see who would fall first, they failed to notice the rope starting to weaken from the constant swaying.
Snap!
“Huh? AAAHHH!!!”
The net gave in as the two fell, luckily it also kept them from completely falling to the ground as the rope entangled the two enough to where they were suspended from the floor.
Right next to Pomni, who was very excited to see them again as her tail wagged fiercely
“Oh great, way to go mix match.” Jax leered at Zooble, or at least tried to
“Hey you started it fihihihirst!! HEhehehey!” Zooble giggled out as Pomni began to trace her claws on their foot, not long before scratching at the back of their knees earning a heightened octave of laughter from the toy “HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! NOHOHO WAIHIHIHIHIT!!! HOHOHOLY %#$@ THIHIS IS SO BAHAHAD!!”
“Heh! That’s what you geEEHEHEHEHEE!! NOHOHO FAHAHAIR!!!” Jax guffawed as Pomni dug into his paw, every once in a while dipping under his digital pads
What felt like hours was only five minutes as the playful attack when on. The two finally gave in as the tickling was starting to wear them down.
“HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! ALRIGHT! ALRIGHT!! YOU WIN POMNI!! YOU WIHIHIHIN!” Zooble shouted
“HEHEHEHE! I SECOND THAT HAHAHA! UNCLE!! UHUHUNCLE!!!”
Satisfied with their surrender, Pomni thankfully stopped as she let them go, trotting away as she left the room to search for her final playmate.
As the two were left to dangle in the rope, Zooble tried and failed to get the two free due to her previous strength being sapped from the tickles.
“So..beautiful night tonight right—?”
“Shut up.”
-[5:55 AM, Kitchen….]-
Ragatha panted as she entered the kitchen, tired from all the running she was doing. While she was trying to find a new place to hide, she overheard Zooble and Jax’s laughter. That gave her the confirmation that she was the only “survivor” in the game, and there was no doubt that Pomni was going after her next.
As the ragdoll slumped against the wall a familiar jingle started to play.
Jingle…jingle…jingle
Oh no…
Ragatha slowly looked up to see Pomni slowly creep towards her, a playful yet smug smile planted on her face knowing she was going to win this silly little game she made.
A wobbly smile crept onto the ragdoll’s face as she nervously watched the were jester get closer, there was no way out. If she tried to run, it’ll only trigger Pomni into chasing after her, and with her paws, she’d have no problem with catching up, but if she stayed, she’d definitely get got.
She yelped when her thoughts were interrupted as Pomni was now mere inches away from her. Taking her sweet time to enjoy her last playmate’s reactions.
“N-now Pomni..w-we can talk about this.” Ragatha stuttered nervously, holding her hands up in case the weretickle monster tried to pounce at any given moment
Pomni only giggled before positioning herself to tackle her. But before she could, a beam of warm light hit her face, she turned towards the open window only to see that the sun was rising.
6 A.M.
The clocked chimed as morning finally arrived, causing Pomni to whine and hold her head a little due to the sound and wave of lightheadedness taking over. Not long after, a puff of pink smoke surrounded both her and Ragatha, the last thing the ragdoll heard was the were jester howl weakly.
Ragatha coughed and waved the smoke away to make sure her friend was okay.
“Pomni?! Pomni are you—?! Oh.” Ragatha paused as she saw the little jester on the floor, snoring away as she was curled up. She shouldn’t help but chuckle at the sight before she picked her up, being carful to not wake her up as she walked out of the kitchen.
“Well it looks like our little jester seems to be taking the after effects of being a were tickle monster!”
Caine’s voice nearly caused Ragatha to drop Pomni as she yelped from his sudden appearance, had it not been for her quick reflexes she would’ve dropped her on the cold hard floor.
“Caine! Don’t do that! I almost dropped Pomni!” Ragatha said in a hushed tone
“Oops! Apologies Ragatha, but I couldn’t help but notice that you won the adventure for the night!” The ringleader cheered as he followed the ragdoll “If you’d like, I can take Pomni back to her room for you! I already found the other three fast asleep in other places, so it wouldn’t be a problem if I just take one more to bed.”
“Please,”
In an instant, Caine snapped his fingers, and Pomni disappeared from Ragatha’s arms back into her room. And knowing what else to expect after an adventure like game, Ragatha turned to the ringleader.
“Now then, what magnificent prize do I get for surviving the night?” She asked
“Oh! Of course the prize! It’s a limited edition plush form of the weretickle monster!”
Said plushie suddenly appeared into her hands, a little confused, yet satisfied from it.
“And I figured you all would need a proper equity rest after last night, so you all get the rest of the day off!” Caine continued “Now then, I’m off to go sip some tea with Princess Loolilalu! Don’t go causing too much trouble now!”
And with that, the ringleader quickly teleported off to somewhere else, leaving Ragatha alone with her thoughts. Though, it didn’t last long as she herself was also tired.
Not long after, the ragdoll dragged herself over to her room and crawled onto her bed, making sure she was comfortable. The only adventures she was willing to go were only in her dreams, and that went for everyone as well as the circus fell into a peaceful silence for the first time.

When I drew the first version I didn't really put any sort of effort into it lol cause I wasn't really expecting it to recieve any attention, but lo and behold—
you guys went FERAL over that shit and proper surprised me SO here's an actual better quality redraw now that I'm more familiar with drawing Jaxxy boy hehe enjoy
AN: I finally finished this! Probably gonna be my last fic until October rolls around. Jax gives off huge switch energy, & this was all I could think about seeing him go feral in ep. 5. I also just really love Evil Jax & how sweet he is, so you know I had to bully him lmao. Here’s some fluff to cope with that last episode!
From the moment he laid eyes on him, Jax wanted his so called "evil" counterpart dead. So the moment that the adventure officially came to an end and his vegan status, along with the maid outfit, disappeared, he made a B-line for the field.
Evil Jax noticed his double running towards him on all fours, offering a timid wave. "Oh, hey! W-wait, what're you- AAAH!"
The pink bunny barely had time to react before the real Jax pounced. Sharp teeth latched around his waist, sinking into the plush material as he began viciously shaking him back and forth.
Jax growled as he shook his head, enjoying the frantic screams from his so called "evil" doppelgänger. His limbs flailed about uselessly, with an almost rubber-like quality.
"AH! Noho, Jax! W-what did I doho?" he wailed, desperately trying to escape.
Jax spat him out on the ground so that he could reply, "Will you shut up? Can't you see I'm trying to rip you to shreds?" He didn't wait for an answer before he dove back in, sharp teeth sinking into his soft belly.
Off to the side, Pomni couldn't help but giggle at his antics, stifling her reaction when she caught Ragatha's gaze.
Her reaction only served to encourage him further, growling loudly as he shook his head around.
"Noho please! S-stohohop!"
Wait, was he laughing? He bit down a little harder, earning a giggly squeal.
"AHAHA! C'mohohon man, c-cut it out! That tickles!"
Oh, this was just too good.
"Oh it does, does it?" he asked, finally dropping him. Evil Jax gasped for breath, relieved at his newfound freedom.
It was short lived.
"W-wait, what's with that look?"
Jax was grinning down at him, smile edging on sadistic. He let out a low, threatening chuckle as he raised his clawed hands.
"Nothin', don't worry about it," he practically purred, making a show of cracking his knuckles.
Evil Jax flinched at the loud sound, a nervous giggle managing to slip out before he slapped a hand over his mouth.
"I haven't even touched you and you're already laughing? God, you're pathetic," he taunted, lunging for his belly, only to pull back at the last second, cackling at the panicked squeal that filled the air.
"H-hey! That wasn't very nihihice! Noho no no, wahahait!"
"Yeah, I bet you're just dying for the real deal," Jax teased, grinning wider when he noticed the way his counterpart flinched at his words.
"W-what? No I'm nohohot!" his pleas fell on deaf ears as Jax launched his attack.
"Really? Coulda fooled me," he shrugged casually, continuing the playful torture despite the giggly protests filling the air. Evil Jax managed to grab ahold of his wrists, but couldn't manage anything more than weak shoving.
"Is that the best you got? Aw, how pathetic," he cooed tauntingly. A bright pink blush spread across his cheeks at those words.
"Hehehey, I'm tryihihing!" he whined through laughter.
"Not very hard. C'mon, put some muscle into it!" Jax encouraged mockingly. He latched onto his hips, drilling circles with his thumbs.
Evil Jax bucked and tried to curl in on himself, but nothing he did provided any relief from the ticklish onslaught.
"Oh wait, I forgot; you don't have any," he added cheekily, having to raise his voice over the sound of frantic laughter.
"Hey! T-that was mehehean!" he pouted, pink blush spreading across his already pink fur. Jax cackled at his own joke, raking up and down his ribs relentlessly.
"That's kinda the point. Mean is practically my middle name," he paused to brag before digging back in. The not so evil doppelgänger thrashed and squealed as the ticklish onslaught commenced.
"Ihihi seheriously doubt THAAAT," he called him out, immediately paying the price.
"Hey, cut the attitude! Unless you want me to kill you. I'm still mulling it over."
"WHAT?" Evil Jax yelped, curling into a defensive ball. He eyes the purple rabbit with renewed anxiety.
"Ha! Just kidding; I can't believe you actually fell for that!" Jax taunted, leaning closer as he mocked him.
Evil Jax blushed and stuttered, "Y-you did kinda try to eat me... o-or something." He paused for a moment, glancing away as he spoke. "What were you trying to do?" he dared to ask, even as he dreaded the answer.
Jax was a little taken aback by the question. "What do you mean? I was teaching you a lesson, obviously," he rolled his eyes, reiterating his point by squeezing his sides rapidly. Evil Jax shrieked and scrambled to grab his hands.
"Pft, yeah, that's the problem!" Jax huffed in feigned annoyance.
"Tehell mehehe how that makes any sehehense! Nohoho wait! I dihihidn't mean ihit!" he tried to return some of the sarcasm, but immediately paid the price. Jax shoved his hands under his arms, chuckling as he tried to apologize.
"Oh no, it's too late for that now. You said what you said, and I think you meant every word," he said, voice calm and collected, as if he weren't inflicting tickle torture on his evil clone.
Because that was a normal thing to do...
"Nohoho, please! I didn't, Ihi swehehear!" he pleaded, snorting and giggling as he fought to shove Jax's intrusive hands out of his armpits.
"Hmmm, let me think," Jax hummed, drawing it out longer just to toy with him. "I don't believe you."
"No wahahait! Wehehe can tahahalk about thihis!"
"Nah, I'm good actually. Thanks for askin' though!" he said condescendingly, earning a giggly whine in response.
He finally withdrew his arms, allowing the digital clone a moment to compose himself.
"O-okahay, y-you proved your point. Whatever it was," he mumbled the last part under his breath.
"The fact you don't know just proves my work here isn't done," Jax proclaimed, cracking his knuckles and stretching out his arms casually.
"W-well what was I supposed to learn from all that?" Evil Jax stammered, trying to find any other way out of the situation.
"How about how to stop being such a ticklish little dork? That'd be a good place to start," he taunted, smirk growing at the way the pink rabbit turned almost red in embarrassment, ears twitching nervously.
"WHAT? You can't call me that!"
"Why not? It's the truth, ain't it?"
"No! I-I mean, I am a little sensitive..."
"You can't even say the word! Oho this is rich," Jax teased, wiping away a nonexistent tear of laughter.
Evil Jax, on the other hand, had mirthful tears leaking out of the corners of his eyes, leaving wet streaks in his fur.
"Alright, let's see where else you're ticklish-" he scanned his target, ready to strike, before a snide comment caught his attention.
"Of course, leave it to Jax to try and tickle himself to death..."
"WHAT?" he screamed, and they both froze, staring at Zooble. "Why would you even say that? Why would you say that?" he threatened, seething in anger and embarrassment.
To make matters worse, Gangle and Ragatha were giggling, and Pomni was doing a pretty poor job pretending she wasn't either.
"Because it's like... your favorite way to bother us?" they called out with a shrug.
"Whahat? Nooo," he tried to deflect, giggling nervously as he glanced away. "It's not. It's not!" he repeated more firmly when Zooble continued to give him an unimpressed look.
"It kinda is," they argued, although it didn't sound like they cared either way.
"Now that you mention it, he does do it a lot," Ragatha noted, tapping her chin in thought. "Ya got somethin' you're trying to say?" she asked Jax, more light hearted and playful than teasing. But that didn't mean he wouldn't get defensive.
"Just shut up!" he huffed, rolling his eyes. He tried his best to ignore them and redirect his attention to his squirming counterpart. "I'm sorry, where were we?"
"Um... y-you were gonna let me go?" Evil Jax suggested hopefully.
"No, but nice try!" Jax chuckled, flashing a cheeky grin. The pink rabbit whined, ears lying flat as he pressed himself into the ground. He watched him carefully, flinching at the slightest movement.
Jax's hands loomed above, fingers wiggling threateningly. Evil Jax had to bite his lip to keep the anticipatory giggles at bay. He grabbed one of his ears, scratching gently around the base and down the length.
He let out a shrill squeal before dissolving into giddy, frantic giggles. He shook his head and scrunched his shoulders, managing to roll over to hide his blushing face.
"C-c'mohon mahahan, not thehehere!" he pleaded. Jax hummed in thought, as if considering it.
"If not here, then where?"
"Y-you can't make me choose!"
"Sure I can! You can't stop me," he pointed out rather smugly. Evil Jax pouted and buried his face in the ground.
"You're being mean..." he whined, crossing his arms.
"Oh boo hoo, go cry about it later. Right now, you're gonna laugh 'till you scream," Jax threatened, ever present smile growing sinister. He decided to turn around, facing his legs. Evil Jax immediately tried to sit up and slip away, only for Jax to reach behind and shove him back down.
"Where do you think you're going? Stay down!" he ordered. The pink rabbit shrunk in on himself, ears flattening as he was scolded. A forced smile soon took over his features once more as Jax traced the pads of his feet. He instinctively scrunched his toes, biting his lip as giggles built up inside his throat.
"Oh so now you try an' act tough. A little late for that, don't you think?" Jax taunted, wiggling a finger between his toes. The so called evil counterpart flinched with a choked off giggle. Encouraged by the reaction, Jax poked and scratched the soft paw pads, holding his legs still as he tried to kick him off.
"GAHAHA! N-NOT THEHE FEET!" Evil Jax begged through desperate hysterics.
"Not the ears, not the feet, geez can't you make up your mind?" Jax asked sarcastically, but the only answer he received was an incoherent screech.
"NOHOHO!" came the giddy, slightly sassy reply.
"Oh you think you're funny, do you?"
"W-wait, WAHAHAIT! IHIHI'M SOHOHORRYYY!" Evil Jax squealed and threw his head back as desperate hysterics escaped from his throat. Jax scribbled along the soft paw pads as fast as he could, catching him off guard every time he prodded the toe beans of his trapped feet.
Evil Jax could do nothing but writhe on the ground, pleading for someone, anyone to help.
"RAHAHAGS! M-MAHAKE HIM STOHOHOP!" he called out, reaching a hand out towards Ragatha's evil double.
Ragatha jumped at the unexpected request, attention drawn back to the one sided tickle fight. She was about to stutter out a reply, when Evil Ragatha's maniacal laughter cut her off.
"Why would I do that? This is the best thing I've seen all day! AHAHAHA!"
Oooh, he was asking HIS Ragatha. Yeah, that made sense. She breathed a sigh of relief, grateful she wouldn't have to be the one to break it up.
"Aw, doesn't look like anyone's coming to save you. What a shame," Jax mocked, feigning sympathy with a shrug.
Evil Jax let out a giggly whine, leg thumping against the ground as he traced around his paws.
"Hey, you think I'll have good luck after this?" Jax mused aloud.
"Whahahat?" he giggled in confusion, cocking his head to look at him.
"Y'know, like a lucky rabbit's foot!" he explained, sporting a shit eating grin.
"Uh, I-I don't think that's how it wohohorks!" as Evil Jax tried to speak, he chose that moment to dive back in.
"Yeah, an' what do you know? You're nothin' but a ticklish loser!" Jax mocked with a sinister chuckle, turning back around to playfully shove at his chest.
"Hehehey! That's not very nihice!" he protested, grabbing Jax's hand, shoving him away.
"I'm not very nice, now get over it," he shot back, wrenching his hand free so he could squeeze and poke along his belly.
Evil Jax squealed, slapping at his hands frantically before resorting to beating the ground, finally reaching his limits and tapping out.
"Ihi give! Ihihi gihihive! You wihihin!" he pleaded for mercy.
Jax's grin only grew wider. "Oh yeah? What do I win?" he goaded, eager to milk this for all it's worth.
"C'mon Jax, he already tapped out," Ragatha spoke up, feeling somewhat sorry for the npc. After all, she knew from experience how ruthless Jax could be.
"Ugh, fine!" he groaned in annoyance, though it was mostly for show. He pulled back, but didn't let his prey go just yet. "You're lucky she stepped in to save you. Otherwise who knows? Maybe I really would have tickled you to death," he shrugged nonchalantly, snickering at the startled yelp he got in return.
He thought he heard Pomni giggle at the comment, and his chest swelled with pride.
"Y-you can't actually do that," Evil Jax said, mustering the strength to shove him off. "Right?"
"Who knows! But we can find out next time," Jax taunted, slinging an arm around his shoulders once he sat up. Evil Jax froze at the threat, a wobbly, nervous smile still playing at the corner of his mouth.
"M-maybe then I can get my revenge!" he suggested, only for Jax to laugh him off, offering a hearty slap to the back.
"I wouldn't count on it," he said, wiping away a fake tear as his laughter died down.
"Oh, o-okay," he immediately backed down from the suggestion. "I still had fun though!"
That certainly caught him off guard. "You did?" he asked in shock, voice bordering on a scream as a faint blush dusted his cheeks.
Evil Jax gave a timid shrug, fiddling with his hands and staring at the ground as he spoke. "Well, yeah, didn't you?" he threw the question right back, unaware of just how humiliating that was. Or maybe he did know, if his own blush was anything to go by.
"I- no- that's not-"
"Hey, it's okay! My friends don't like to play with me like that either."
"We weren't playing!" Jax yelled defensively, growing more embarrassed as he heard the others giggling to themselves.
"Sure, whatever you say," he agreed with a bright smile. Jax just sighed, knowing there was no use arguing.
"Whatever, I'm done with this stupid adventure," he mumbled, storming away from the group and ignoring his counterpart as he waved goodbye.
"Took you long enough," Zooble teased, earning a glare in return.
"I'd shut up if I were you," he threatened, although it was obvious no one took him seriously.
"Yeah, wouldn't wanna be next," Pomni added playfully.
"I'm gonna kill you when we get back," he growled, anger festering as his embarrassment continued to grow.
"What're you gonna do? Tickle me to death?" she challenged.
