#the element of surprise! x3

[loupy-mongoose]

So....

I was chatting with @puzzled-zebra, and she brought up a very… interesting background element to think about with Jamie.

Now, if you couldn't figure it out from the picture… this is, uh… related to a more mature topic…

Periods.

(Lil bit of Jamie backstory here, if you can tolerate the subject matter at hand.)

So, Jamie was about 13 years old when she met her brother Jordan and his eventual wife, Rose. She was at maximum feral-ness and only really tolerated staying with them because she had a concussion and it was in her best interest for survival. She did NOT get along with the two humans, especially Jordan. Jordan kept a mostly cold facade with her because he really didn't know how to handle this surprise that he had a feral little sister, and they clashed horribly. Rose, however, wanted to offer Jamie help. To be a safe place for this girl that had clearly had it rough so far. Rose loved Jamie (platonically), offering endless patience and support, even though it seemed hopeless that Jamie would come around.

And then Jamie had her period.

I have to think, with her circumstances and the fact that she was never educated on this topic, Jamie would think something was horribly wrong with her. To the point she thought she was dying, Especially if there were cramps.

When Rose learns that she's going through this, she calmly tells Jamie what's up. She becomes a pillar of support and comfort--Something Jamie has been missing for many years by that point. So this moment of terror becomes a foundation on which Jamie begins to trust people, and form a bond with her eventual sister-in-law. (Or actual SIL, by that point. I don't know. X3)

jen do you think harry might perform all hsh in it’s entirety and some other forgotten tunes from fine line and hs1 at the last show? maybe bring back niji for sv6? or past openers for surprise collabs? since he performed with wet leg in lisbon i doubt that will also be the ‘surprise element’ at the last show, he’ll probably do something different.

I'm the worst person to ask, tbh! I keep waffling between "nothing is gonna be different, literally NOTHING, I saw the 'final show' for hs1 before he disappeared for a year plus, and you know what changed? x3 Kiwi, that's what" vs. "oh wow some truly magical shit is gonna happen, get ready for Style feat. Taylor Swift and/or Best Song Ever feat. One Direction," etc etc.

#i feel bad for that one anon who was begging me to talk them out of it #and idk if i did or not #and if something TRULY bananas happens #how angry that person'll be but i'm just going on past results #and before anyone says LISTEN i have theories about the video from yesterday #he's gonna finally stop walking the fine line and scream about his sexuality on stage or whatEVER it is people dream about #pretty much every video features him disappearing or falling or etc right??? #i just don't know what'll be that surprising but i know that i won't be there and yet i'll still find out all about it! #and will be thousands of dollars less in debt accordingly

WIP Wednesday - Huxley/Milo College Football AU

@romirola @dominimoonbeam @ejunkiet & @glassbearclock have all tagged me in WIP Whenever the last week or so, and I’ve been too busy to sit down and focus on writing. Thanks to the rampant, rabid fanning out of me and my friends, however, I managed to wrangle enough of a WIP into submission X3 have my latest crackship that’s utterly consuming me, the delightful size difference pairing that is Huxley & Milo X3 ❤️ and yes, this will probably end up a multichapter monster…. Full of almost entirely crackships XD

~~~

Milo felt his stomach flip as soon as he heard the door open, and immediately locked all his focus onto the kettle as he waited for it to start screaming. Doing his best to ignore the soft groans and noises his roommate was letting out while unloading whatever he’d brought into the apartment with him.

And desperately trying not to picture those sounds in a different context.

Even with how hard he was focusing on the barely warm kettle, Milo could hear the surprisingly light footsteps that sounded Huxley’s approach, and felt his heartrate pick up. It was times like this he was thankful they’d ended splitting a small apartment rather than one of the oncampus dorms. Having the beast of a jock in such close proximity at all times would have been even harder on his heart than this was.

“Hey, dude!” Huxley called as he came out of the small entryway and into the kitchen. Milo glanced over his shoulder to return the greeting and nearly choked on his tongue.

Huxley had apparently just gotten back from working out, judging from the way the tanktop he had on was damp and clinging to his chest, the flush that spread over his collarbones and neck and that thick hair that was messed and begging to be combed out.

The shifter managed to find his voice and cleared his throat a couple times, nodding before looking back at the kettle. “Hey, Hux… good run?”

“Yeah, real good! Was able to go half a mile further than usual.”

“Was wondering, you’re usually back sooner than this. Was worried your tea was gonna end up getting cold.” The silence that he got in response had him pausing and glancing over at Huxley, starting to sweat as he saw the earth elemental watching him with an odd look. It wasn’t a bad look, moreso a mix of surprise and happiness.

“…You made me tea?”

That had Milo’s face going dark and he cleared his throat again as he turned back around to stare at the kettle. “I just… I noticed you use the water that’s leftover when I make my own tea, so I figured I’d make yours first so it’s ready when you get here.” He muttered, pushing the extra large green mug that Huxley always used towards him.

“Thanks dude, that’s… I’m thirsty as hell, and it’s nice to not have to wait for the tea to steep.”

Milo grunted softly, fighting to keep his face neutral as Huxley came to stand beside him. Cursing his wolf senses. Huxley’s natural scent already drove him half up the wall, it was almost maddening, smelling him fresh off of a run. And now he was standing directly beside the shifter, that thick throat flexing with each swallow of tea.

The kettle started whistling, causing Milo to jump and break his eyes from the sight of the muscled giant next to him in a barely there tank top and shorts that did nothing to hide criminally thick thighs. Swearing softly, he flicked the stove off and lifted the kettle, filling his own mug and digging through the box of tea bags to figure out what flavour he wanted.

The satisfied groan Huxley let out nearly took his knees out, the shifter fumbling the tea bag he’d selected. “Oh, that hit the spot dude… you even remembered how much sugar I take.” Hearing the fondness in Huxley’s voice had Milo’s already red face growing even hotter, and he hummed quietly.

“It’s no problem.” The shifter assured, ripping the tea bag open with a bit more viciousness than needed. Then that large hand clapped on his shoulder, squeezing gently. “You need to use the bathroom before I get in the shower?”

It was a simple question, but it spoke volumes of the kindness that radiated out of Huxley; something as simple as wanting to make sure he didn’t have Milo doing a dance in the hall while he waited for the elemental to finish showering.

The amount of times he’d gotten nothing but cackling laughter when Asher was showering as he banged on the door and pleaded for relief… it was a little gesture, but it was one Milo appreciated immensely.

“No, I’m good, man. Go ahead.”

He stared at his mug, waiting for it to cool to the right temperature before he dropped the tea bag in, listening to Huxley head down the hall. Unable to resist peaking over his shoulder to watch as the elemental yanked his tanktop off. Staring at the sweat slick muscles of his back as he stretched and sighed.

How in the hell was he supposed to survive the next four years of this…?

[drawnaghht]

just for the record, for Samurai Rabbit fans who do like the show, objectively, the show is pretty good. What's the objective measure here? for me it's usually just much I can enjoy it while watching, but there's always more to it than that. i was a bit bored with the show the first 2 eps, but then it surprised me with a few elements in ep 3. I slowly understood what it was actually going for with the slowness. I kept watching and found things I liked about it. Got all sorts of theories and connections and story ideas. I started re-reading Usagi Yojimbo and went looking for more crew interviews. Saw how much the cast and crew seemed to like it and I'm convinced that it was a good show to work on. Rewatched it in other dubs to get some other perspective for my theories. But that's just one way I enjoy shows.

Of course, there's no real objectivity when it comes to tastes, so I say, if you like it, like it unabashedly. You never know when a show just ends or you'll look back and might feel sad you didn't really let yourself enjoy it, just because others don't. I've watched much trashier shows before this one, (comparably, Samurai Rabbit isn't even trashy at all), and those have gotten much less hate, for being much much more annoying/bad/low quality as a whole x3 You don't have to feel bad about folks hating on the show online. They just have a different taste than you. But if you like it, that's really the only metric you need to judge it.

(this is specifically a thought bc a younger fan wrote to me that they felt sad that the show got so much hate in reviews/online posts etc)

if the show was truly as bad as some folks say, it probably would not have been made. there are just so many factors at play in making a show, i personally just try to go by my gut feeling at this point abt shows and if they're going to be fun to watch or not.

and lol i don't have the energy to put this into a longer well-articulated post but still wondering i guess why there are so many posts with "oh this show ain't so good, i hate it" etc etc

so????

sorry for sounding harsh or whatever but literally, watch more animation!!!! there are shows worse than this one and if you'd been alive when those aired you would have watched them and remembered them fondly, only to realize one day you were just watching them out of boredom bc there was nothing else animated on

even shows which we lambast as critical darlings within fandoms had their ups and downs during airing

how well a show is received always depends on how much the network loves it, but also a lot of pure luck

or you'd find a good show and see that the network abruptly ended it, not even with a solution or real ending, but just something open bc the creators were hoping the show could come back. or the show would come back, but completely changed, something so unwatchable you wish you could unwatch it

at least, that was my experience watching cartoons as a 20-something or younger, coming back to cartoon-watching because I had time after highschool

maybe the show just came out too late/early, and would have found a different audience if it came out at a different time. I think about how ROTTMNT was received and how now reviewers are coming back to it, with tails between their legs like "UmU this show was not so bad... after all!!!" shut it!!!! i guess compared to how rise was treated by old TMNT fans and critics alike, this one has gone fairly under the radar or remained almost unremarked upon. Well, old UY did complain about it, and youtube reviewers too, so it's sorta the same thing. kids' cartoons will always have adult critics because everyone thinks they know how to run a cartoon/know what a good cartoon is xD

find other things to do!!!! make your own cartoons and see how easy it is. western cartoon/tv is just how it is and it's not bad to expect more of it, but also, it feels weird to go along with hating or reviewbombing etc just because that's become something "in" now. there's worse media than an animated adaptation turned into a kids cartoon, made during the pandemic.

lowkey some of you just seem kind of spoiled with how many good series there are, and you're just putting the bar so high for even shows you like, NOTHING is good for you unless it's extremely perfect or catering to each and every of your expectations xD

yea ok, it's a children's cartoon - whatever! western children's cartoons can run such a wide gamut of quality vs enjoyability, there's so many shows now you can enjoy instead.

if it's good for you, great! if it's not, ok! don't go posting it in the tags as some universal opinion lol xD

again, there are much worse cartoons out there in the past and in other parts of the world. one little animation mistake or even several per episode aren't going to break my enjoyment of the episode or show as a whole xD

the slowness i mentioned experiencing for example, is also subjective. A reviewer on Commonsensemedia, wrote that they found the show too fast-paced, but that their young daugther liked it, and how the messaging came off as good to both them and their child. It's a matter of perspective.

like yeah, it's a bit goofy and dorky at times, I personally do not get some of the jokes (more on that in a proper review) and maybe as an animator, i'm a bit annoyed at some of the things done with the 3D animation specifically. But that's personal! and those are so few things. on the flipside, I was still able to enjoy the rest of the show, because to me it felt like a lot of care and thought was put into it as a whole. Like, many of the visdev team actually asked to be on the show. It can't be that bad if long time professionals around the western animation industry want to work on it.

A show that's truly bad, would not even bother fleshing out some sort of villain or antagonists at all, and mabye would have scrapped Kagehito as a character entirely, when hearing that it was sort of impossible to animate him as intended. But there's a lot of stuff in this show like that. Compromises from the crew, so they could still make the show and focus on aspects of production and story that were more necessary. So for example also, lobbying for more appearances of Miyamoto Usagi, even though Netflix was not on-board with that themselves, the producers and showrunners were.They were pushing for more of him and his backstory in this show.

so eah, idk, this ended up long anyway, but just, if you like it already, it's ok xD you don't have to justify yourself to other fans or people. and honestly, if you dislike it, same thing. you don't have to justify it. you can just dislike things without reason.

#srtuc #samurai rabbit #cartoon criticism #idk it's whatever but the internet is always annoying for peeps like these #for all i know i probably sounded the same #when i was like. 12 or something. idk it's just weird seeing this posted in the tags directly. go use an anti tag or whatever u see fit jee #not even that annoyed but just thinking abt it this week while trying to i guess return to being online #aghhtpost #this goes for jade armor too tbh #wahh wah wahh this show resembles one cartoon i hate! STFU this is not about the ladybug cartoon you like to hate #there are more cartoons out there now that are actually good tbh that just. idk watch ANYTHING ELSE #im so tired of everyone and their mom wanting cartoons to be critical darlings all the time #fantalk #tagramble #fan rant #whoops this came out long anyway #anyway making cartoons at all is hard as hell so. thankful this show even exists even if it's not what ppl expected

@mcltiples sent: “Ship Bingo” For Weird Rick and Evil Rick >:D Ship bingo || Accepting !

[[ I'll start to say that these two were another surprise, especially since we hadn't even thought about shipping them together before it happened xD And the growth they have gone through? That's just as astonishing, if not more. Of course there are still a lot of toxic elements in their relationship, starting from how unbalanced it is and from the fact that Evil is biologically incapable of experiencing romantic (or sexual) feelings. And yet they have found their balance...if we can call it that xD ]]

[[ Tbh, I've always found toxic ships so very interesting, but I had really few chances to write / explore them, and I surely never got to write anything quite like them. Two extremely twisted, ruthless, problematic people finding their place in the universe by each other's side. Which is kinda sweet...or it would be if they weren't so fucking creepy xD But that's part of their charm too x3 ]]

[[ Also, little explanation. The stuff I highlighted in a lighter colour is because it doesn't apply to both (for the sexual and romantic part) and because it's what we call them (soulmates), but I don't believe that they think of themselves as such x3 ]]

#[ ooc :: mun scotty on comm ] #[ You're my obsession. I'm your possession :: Evil Rick & Weird Rick ] #mcltiples #[[ the Ricks might be my faves but ]] #[[ our psychos are a close second ]] #[[ and they have that extra spice because they are so fucked up and PROUD xD ]]

Fanfic ask: 💔 😅 🎶 🍷 🤲🏻 & 🥰

AAA thank you for sending these!! ^o^

💔 Is there a fic of yours that broke your heart?

Not necessarily — but I feel like when I write fics, I’m usually trying to cure my own heartache (especially if writing for DGM, because woosh, canon hurts enough XD). There are definitely scenes that have broken my heart (Alma waking up at the end of The Chime of a Crystalline Flower and questioning if Kanda was real definitely broke me). I haven’t finished writing it, but I do think the ending of Songbirds in Winter is going to be a knife to the heart. There’s definitely going to be a tragic element to how things play out between many of the characters, so that might be the fic to do it. >.<

😅 What’s a story or scene you’ve created that you’re a smidge embarrassed exists?

Somehow I felt it in my bones this would be asked if anyone sent me anything. XD So, I do have some things I’m really embarrassed about but I actually haven’t posted them all to my AO3. >.> Some of my really kinky things I just haven’t mustered the courage to post, but maybe one day. :3 (Tbh, I have some ideas for fics with the sex pollen trope, but aaaa. I need to be braver. LOL.) HOWEVER, as I work on some scenes for Songbirds in Winter, some spicy bits have definitely made me blush. X3 In terms of what I have shared, the one thing that probably embarrassed me the most is making Alma a webcam model in my Lavi x Alma fic, A Chance Encounter. Otherwise, maybe some of my older fics because ayeeee, my grammar and sentence structure when I started writing was not it. XD

🎶 Do you listen to music while you write? What song have you been playing on loop lately?

Sometimes! Depending on what I’m writing, I might listen to something on a loop or opt for silence, but generally if I listen to anything while writing, it’ll be instrumental/without lyrics. Since I’m working on Songbirds in Winter and it’s a Romeo and Juliet AU, I’ve been listening to Prokofiev’s Romeo and Juliet score. (Specifically, I’ve been listening to the Balcony Scene/Love Dance and Juliet’s Funeral/Death — the last 3 minutes of the latter piece probably encompass the mood of the story the most and where it’s heading, so it’s been something I’ve been returning to a lot lately.

🍷 Do you drink and write?

I did a few times in the past, but not so much anymore! Mostly because I haven’t been drinking wine much anymore lately. Every once in a while I might, but I tend to drink a lot of tea to help me focus. :3

🤲🏻 Would you please share a snippet of a wip?

Absolutely! The following is from (surprise) Songbirds in Winter for a chapter I’m currently working on. >.> A little spice to tickle your fancy. <3  ~~~ Breaths rapid. Body trembling. He was below him, eyes clouded and lips parted with flushed skin. “T—Tyki,” he pleaded, voice quivering with need. “Tyki, please, please—" The memory did not even play out in full, a shudder threatening to ripple through Tyki’s body. Still lying on his back, he ran his hands over his face. Did he need a smoke? He had snuck one before dinner, but felt a little on edge, need and want creeping into his veins like a poison slowly spreading. He just couldn’t stop thinking. He couldn’t stop thinking about Alma. He opened his eyes, Tyki sitting up. He felt unusually riled, his energy restless, the alpha standing as he walked over to a coat hanger in the corner of his room, his worn, older cloak that he normally used still hanging up. Without a second thought, Tyki snatched it, taking it back to the bed as he sat on the edge. Bringing the fabric to his face, he inhaled. The scent was mostly his own musk mixed with the remnants of nicotine, but faintly there was another scent — a little light, more floral. Alma’s scent. It was nowhere near enough, the residual scent minimal. A twinge of frustration brimmed within Tyki, a small part of himself wishing that Alma’s scent had lingered longer. He had noticed Alma’s scent before when their paths had crossed, but last night… Heat seeped low into his gut, Tyki’s pulse quickening. The restless energy inside him continued to fester, the alpha shifting his body on the bed. Still holding his cloak close, he inhaled once more, trying to savor what remained of Alma — flowers and sugared pomegranates, spring amongst winter.

🥰 How do you feel about reader interaction? Are you open to receiving questions about your fics?

Always! Always!!! Whether it’s a WIP or a fic I wrote years ago — it always makes me happy to hear from readers, and I really appreciate it when readers want to reach out. (I also love it when readers have questions/theories? It’s really fun to hear what others are taking from reading my fics, and I’m always happy to answer comments/asks/messages. <3 )

Fanfic Emoji Asks.

#fanfic emoji ask #asks #ask meme #fanfiction #writing #answers #kitty-bandit #thank you for asking!! #I wanted to answer soon but the snippet is something I was working on last night >.>

Techniques To Optimise Your Website Performance

It is no secret that websites are vital for businesses. They play a factor in establishing a positive or negative impression of your products and services. Therefore, a website should always strive to be user-friendly, intuitive, and simple to use. But oftentimes, when it comes to building a website, designers tend to get caught up in things such as website layout, content, or design. One aspect of that that is often overlooked that keeps websites operational and fast is performance optimization. Website speed is a vital component of an effective website; it leads to increased user engagement, higher conversion rates, and a high SEO rating on search engines too. In this article, we are going to share with you the techniques on how to optimise your website performance.

What affects website speed and why is it important

 According to research, a user will wait anywhere between 1 and 3 seconds for a website to load before losing focus. If information is not displayed by your website before this time frame, it is likely that they will just close the window. Faster websites will improve the overall user experience, have higher conversion rates, and rank higher in organic search results. A slow and inefficient website will in turn damage your brand and cost you more money, so it is crucial to increase the speed at which your web page loads. But before we go over the techniques for optimising your website's performance, we first must understand web performance optimization and some of the most common reasons that cause a website to be slow. Web performance optimization refers to how quickly a user’s web browser is downloaded and displayed to the user and the study of how to improve it. Factors such as:

Large image sizes

Traffic volume 

Bad network connection

Excessive widgets or plugins

Outdated browser 

Poor server

are common reasons that slow down your website's speed, Although they are common, they are not the only ones that cause a website to load slowly. There are a plethora of options you can take to improve your website's performance, but before that, it is highly recommended to first test your website’s load time before you begin troubleshooting. 

Optimise image sizing 

Graphics and images are one of the core elements that makes up a website so it is no surprise that web designers make extensive use of its visuals. But, the load time of your website can be drastically slowed down if the images in the website are not compressed. Compressing images reduces the resolution of the graphics allowing the website to run smoother. Websites occasionally use images with x2 or x3 resolution, to ensure optimal display. However, by doing that, you are merely wasting bandwidth and making visitors wait longer than they have to. This becomes even worse i they have a sluggish data connection that further worsen the user experience. Use tools like JPEGmini or Kraken.io to reduce the size of the images while retaining similar quality.

Blog Updated #02 - November 21 2023 Beginner's Deck Lists

Hey everybody. it's been a while since I made a blog update, but I think since enough time has passed since I created and released the starter decks for this game, and many people have already had a chance to play with it that it would be fine to discuss and break down some of the decisions made with the production of the decks. To begin with, here is a complete list for each beginner deck. Dark Starter Deck: x4 Psychic Skill Bouncer x4 Hollow Soul Wizard x4 Dark World Gilded Knight x3 Wretched Bloodless Brawler x3 Released Reflection x3 Cries from the Dark World x2 Trick Shot x2 Angelic Gift x2 Bizarre Power Kitten x2 Maken Gravitas x2 Memories in Balance x2 Winds of the Ominous Moon x2 Direct Blast x1 Surprise Attack x1 Lightning Sword Slash x1 Star Swallower x1 Power Sundering Light x1 Wandering Grim Reaper x1 Dark World Necromancer x1 Crimson Soul Angel x1 Legendary Forest Spirit A starter deck focused on the Dark and Undead cards in the game made a lot of sense at the time, because it has many things familiar to other card game players. It has reanimation, draw triggers, cost discounts, protection, draw power spells, disruption and high damage pieces to focus on. When Psychic Skill Bouncer is added into the mix, we realize that there is an effective 4 turn clock (The fastest possible clock in this game) on the first turn when it is beside the Wretched Bloodless Brawler. However, a single blocker disrupts this. After a few games played with the deck most people should figure out what the best field positions are. There are a few other solid positions, such as Hollow Soul Wizard + Dark World Gilded Knight, as well as powerful cards that can run solo like Crimson Soul Angel and Dark World Necromancer. There is also so great reanimation targets, but those cards are good regardless of how they see the field. It is nice to have a great resource/advantage engine in one card. The limitation on bound cards lets us create some powerful effects.

Wind Starter Deck: x4 Angel Wing Elemental x4 Armored Wind Rider x3 Demonic Sky Spear x3 Pinblade Pixie x2 Ultimate War Champion x2 Rookie Adventurer x2 Bizarre Power Kitten x2 Angelic Gift x2 Direct Blast x2 Bloodthirsty Hawk x2 Stormcaller Hawkeye x2 Underground Current Rider x2 Maken Gravitas x2 Razor-Edged Winds x1 Last Other World Oracle x1 Magical Light Vortex x1 Ghost Blade of the Wasteland x1 Wish Upon Shooting Stars x1 Elite Monster Keeper x1 Tyrant Infernal Sorceress x1 Prismatic Swordsmaster

Wind was another prime candidate for a starter deck type, because of it's linear game plan. It also has many of the tools that Dark/Undead does, but boasts a slightly better resilience to removal at the cost of a slightly decreased ability to consistently pull off a clean 5 damage in a turn. This means that a lot of the time you will fall short of taking a complete stock in one turn, having to break your game plan up into multiple turns. Players may soon find this playstyle favorable, and prefer holding back blockers whenever they get the chance. There isn't really a "wrong" approach to doing damage to the stock, until you begin to factor in your susceptibility to a particular bound creature in a specific board state. The deck does feature one very strong interaction in the mid to late game, which is the bound creature Elite Monster Keeper and Pinblade Pixie being on the field together. If Elite Monster Keeper attacks and a Pinblade Pixie is on the field, and it's abilities will almost certainly knock out the opponent's stock together. It is hard to block the keeper, so even if it just gives Pixie +1 meter value, it's still something worthwhile. The deck has many other great positions, the drawback is that the Wind deck usually can't play more than one card in a turn reliably. There are exceptions to this though, such as the Angel Wing Elemental being a lower cost Wind creature.

I got a cute idea

Birch waking Kindlin up and Cirrus and Hazel are there with her and she's like "We're closed today, get dressed we're going somewhere fun!"

Kindlin is confused as hell until they get to the zoo. She thinks maybe they're meeting with sprout and Uncle Oakley or something, that is until she sees the banner. The element city zoo was gifted a blue fire fox. Kindlin quite literally squeals and jumps up and down, pointing at the sign and can barely get the words out to explain herself before she starts running to the exhibit like a little kid might do

Since I have birthdays on the mind X3 This could be something they all plan for her b-day.

What if while they're there at the zoo Dwayne and Oakley and the others are at the bakery decorating for a surprise party?? She might actually start ugly crying when she sees they all remembered

Kindlin is always baking stuff for Cirrus, so she’s wants to repay her by making her the birthday cake. But Dwayne would tell her he should take care of it, since he figured Kindlin would want her with her the whole day

Ticklish With a Side of Kindness (Chapter 6)

And the “Sister of the Year” award goes to Fuku, for letting her little brother, Kyle tickle her as a reward for enduring tickles from both and her demon girlfriend, Ash! :) She really is an awesome big sister, isn’t she? But in this chapter, she might be getting a little more than she bargained for, because in this chapter, Kyle will primarily be targeting the spots where she’s most ticklish. ;)

TICKLISH WITH A SIDE OF KINDNESS

Chapter 6: Burn, Baby, Burn!

 Fuku was all kinds of nervous. At any moment, Kyle would be tickling her on her lower body, everywhere from her thighs all the way down to her ten fiery toes, which had all been rendered bare by Ash shortly after Kyle finished tickling her extremely sensitive armpits. And both slowly and teasingly too, to really get her heart racing! As Fuku’s girlfriend, Ash knows all too well how sensitive Fuku’s feet are. And as Fuku sat in the recliner barefooted and completely helpless, she sweated like no other. She was so nervous that she was sweating! But at the same time, she wasn’t, because every time a fire elemental sweats, the sweat instantly evaporates, much like any tears they might cry. But Ash didn’t need to see any sweat to know how nervous Fuku was while and after taking off her boots and socks. Her body language did all of the talking for her. All of the jerking she did every which way in the recliner as she struggled to free herself from her restraints, that was all her way of saying, “No! No! Anywhere but my feet! Please, please don’t tickle my feet!” And to that Ash says, “Too bad! And nothing you say or do is going to change my mind! Literally Nothing! Heheheheh.” Because at that point, Ash was willing to do anything to witness Kyle tickle her where she’s the most ticklish! But where on her feet exactly? Well, that’s for both Fuku and Ash to know and Kyle to find out. ;)

 Kyle: Heeheeheehee! Ok, I’m back. *said Kyle in a singsongy voice, right as he walked back into the living room with a handful of toys; one green wooden train with magnets on each side, one red Hot Wheels car, one Kangaroo figurine, one troll doll with red hair, and one green toy dinosaur to be exact*

 Ash: Heheheheheheh. Kyle, perfect timing! Oh, and I see you've brought some toys. That's cool. Are those for me to play with while you tickle your cutie pie sister? *asked Ash teasingly, under the impression that Kyle grabbed an assortment of toys for an entirely different reason*

 Kyle: Heeheeheehee! Sure, you can play with them if you want. *Kyle answered while handing Ash his toys, which surprised Ash herself* But I'll need them back after I'm done using my fingers.

 Ash: Oh! Oh, you're going to tickle her with these toys, aren't you? Aren't you? *Ash then asked Kyle enthusiastically, loving his idea of using toys to tickle Fuku*

 Kyle: Heeheeheehee! Yes, Ash. As soon I finish tickling her with my fingers.

 Ash: Oh, you clever little boy you! X3 Hey, Fuku! Fuku! He's gonna tickle you with some of his toys!

 Fuku: I heard. And is that l-little boy planning to be g-gentle with them? *asked Fuku nervously while wiggling and curling her toes, which did nothing to help her current situation*

 Ash: How the hell should I know? *Ash answered, under the impression that Fuku was talking to her* Heheheheheh.

 Fuku: I was actually talking to Kyle, babe. Kyle?

 Kyle: Oh. S-sure. Wait, no I mean, no promises. No promises, Fuku.

 Fuku: Eeeeeek! Kyle! *shrieked Fuku, struggling to free herself once again*

 Ash: Heheheheh. You heard the little man, babe! Heheheheheh. Good answer, Kyle!

 Kyle: Heeheeheehee! Thanks. Also, is her lower body where I'll find the spot that's more ticklish than her hips and armpits?

 Ash: Heheheheheh. Yep. And I'll leave it to you to find out exactly what that spot is.

 Kyle: Heeheeheehee! Thank you. X3

 Ash: Heheheheh. No problem. And might I suggest starting at her thighs and working your way down?

 Kyle: Ooh, good idea. I'll do that.

 And he did too. Not long after the chit chat, Kyle started right in on tickling Fuku with his fingers starting with her thighs, which aren't as sensitive as other parts of her fiery body but still sensitive enough to get her laughing ever so preciously. Music to Kyle's ears as he drummed, raked, and scribbled his fingers all over the fronts and sides of them. X3

 Fuku: EEEEEEEEEEEEEK! GYAHAAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA! AND SO IT BEEHEEHEEHEEGINS! HEEHEEHEEHEEHEEEHEEHEEHEEEHIHIHHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHI! *SQUEAK* GYEEEHEEHEEHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHA! OH MY GAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA…

 Before too long, Kyle was tickling Fuku's knees, which are both more sensitive than her thighs. And because her knees are more sensitive than her thighs, her movement was even more frantic than before. And her laughter was louder as well, about fifty percent louder to be exact, all the while Kyle tickled both the fronts and backs of each of them. Though, not as loud as it was when he tickled her armpits. That factor alone was enough to tell Kyle that he hadn't yet reached the spots where she's the most ticklish. But he was close though, so close but yet so far!

 Fuku: EEEEEEEEEEEK!! GYAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!! KYLE, NOHOHOHOHO!! HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! OHOHOH GOHOHOSH, HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA, WHY DID I AGREE TO THIHIHIHIS?!?! *SQUEAK* GYEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEE!! ASH, WHY THE BLEEP DID I LET YOU TAHAHAHALK ME INTO THIS?!?! *SQUEAK* HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

 Ash: What?! Hey! No! No, don't listen to her, Kyle! She volunteered to sit in that chair long before I could even suggest that she sit in that chair!

 She really did too. Ash wasn't lying. It's far more logical for Kyle to tickle Fuku over Ash, seeing as how Fuku's his adopted sister and all. But that doesn't necessarily mean that Ash will be off the hook though. Given Ash's playfully mischievous nature, Fuku could very likely have something in store for her once her tickle time is officially over. And if Kyle's up to it, she might just have him lend her a hand. Maybe… It'll all depend on how Fuku's feeling after being tickled senseless by Kyle himself. And that might take a while because he has yet to tickle her calves, ankles, and feet. ;)

 Fuku: HAHHAAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!! OKAHAHAHAHAHAY, FINE, I DID!! *exclaimed Fuku through her laughter, feeling that there was no sense arguing with Ash in her current predicament* NYAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA!! OH GAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

 Then before Fuku knew it, Kyle was tickling her calves; drumming, raking, and scribbling his fingers all over the fronts, sides, and backs of them. And then not long after tickling her calves, he tickled her ankles and did the exact same thing. He had to! He had to be sure that not one spot on her calves and ankles was more sensitive than her armpits. And just as he predicted, there wasn't a single spot on her calves and ankles that was more sensitive than her armpits. If there was, Fuku would've been laughing at an even louder volume and she would've moved much more violently in her restraints. But instead, Fuku did the opposite. And with those observations in mind, Kyle came to the conclusion that her feet had to be where she's the most ticklish. But he wouldn't know for sure until actually tickling them himself. And he did. But not until first giving her a breather. She needed one after all of that leg tickling, her and her surprisingly sensitive legs.

 Fuku: Huff… Huff… oh my god!

 Ash: Oh come on, babe, you know that wasn't so bad… in comparison to what's coming! *teased Ash, finding Fuku's overreactions to the leg tickling amusing*

 Fuku: *gasp* Eeeeeeeeeeeeek!! Oh no!! *screamed Fuku in response, curling her toes in fear before suddenly bursting into hearty giggles* Pfffffheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheehee!! Oh nohohoho!! Heeheeheeheeheeheeheehee!! Oh, I can't… Eehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe!!

 Fuku giggled long before Kyle even started tickling her feet. But then once Kyle actually started tickling her feet, that giggling of hers turned into melodic laughter. That and she squealed and shrieked at the top of her diaphragm and also shook and bounced around in the recliner like she was going to die. Just one stroke and Kyle could already tell that her feet were more ticklish than her armpits. She laughed so hard that she wheezed!

 Fuku: EEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!! KYIIIIIIIIIITEEEEEAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!! OHOHOHOH THAHAHAT TICKLES SO BLEEHEEHEEHEEPING MUCH!!!! *SQUEAK* HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! NOHOHO!!!! *SQUEAK* HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!! NOHOHOHOHO!!!! HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH OHOHOHOH NOHOHOHOHO!!!! *SQUEAK* HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!! HAHHAAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!! OHOHOH MY GOD, STOHOHOHOP!!!! HHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! STOP, PLEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEASE!!!! *WHEEZE* HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! *WHEEZE* I'M GOHOHOHONNA DIE!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! *WHEEZE* TYEEEEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEHEEHEEHEHEEHEEHEHEEEHEEHEE…

 After what felt like an eternity of tickling to Fuku, Kyle managed to pinpoint her weak(est) points to the pads/balls of her feet with her upper arches as a very close second. And due to the sporadic nature of Fuku's feet, that was no easy task. Wiggling and splaying her toes at an alarmingly fast rate, repeatedly scrunching and flexing her soles, and excessively waving her feet, it was a miracle that Kyle could tickle them effectively at all. But that didn't bother Kyle too much though. He loved all the different ways Fuku moved her feet as he drummed, raked, and scribbled his fingers all over the soles, sides, and tops of them and as he wiggled his fingers against, underneath, and in between her toes. She has very expressive feet. ;) And not only that, they feel so soft and smooth to the touch. And warm too, not flaming hot despite how much the temperature increased over a short period of time. As a fire elemental, Fuku emits all kinds of heat from her body whilst being tickled, causing a noticeable increase in temperature to everyone around her. And how much the temperature increases depends on where she's being tickled. The more ticklish the spot, the hotter the temperature? Well, it certainly seemed that way! Because while Kyle was tickling Fuku's feet, the living room reached its warmest temperature! Warm enough to make Kyle swap out the green striped long-sleeved shirt he put on after his tickle time for a green striped t-shirt and also turn down the thermostat and Ash to take off her flannel shirt!

 Ash: Agh! Babe, oh my god! Dial it back! Dial it back! *exclaimed Ash while removing her red flannel shirt*

 Fuku: HAAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!! I CAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAN’T!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHA!!!! HIS FINGERS TIHIHICKLE TOO BLEEHEEHEEHEEPING MUCH!!!! *SQUEAK* KYEEEEHEEHEEHEEHEHEEHEEGAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!! *WHEEZE* FAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA KUHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHU OHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO!!!!

 Kyle: *panting* Oh! Oh man, I’ll be right back! *exclaimed Kyle, shortly before wiping sweat off of his forehead and leaving the living room long enough to change shirts*

 Moments later…

 Kyle: Heeheeheehee! *Kyle, now in a t-shirt, giggled childishly upon returning to the living room*

 Fuku: O-ok, you p-put on a d-different shirt. Now what? *asked Fuku nervously, bending her feet forward in fear with her toes curled*

 Kyle: Heeheeheehee! Well, tickle you some more of course! Heeheeheehee! Kitchie koo! Kitchie, kitchcie, kitchie koo! *teased Kyle, resuming his ticklish assault on Fuku’s feet*

 Fuku: EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!! HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! NOHOHOHOHHOHOHO!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!! QUIT TICKLING MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEE!!!! HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!!!! QUIT TICKLING ME, YOU LIL’ CUTIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEIE!!!! *pleaded Fuku through her melodic laughter, moving violently in her chair like she was going to die once again* HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! OHOHHOHOHOHHOH MY GOD, LEAVE MY FEET ALOHOHOHOHOHOHOHONE!!!! *SQUEAK* GYAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!! *WHEEZE* TYEEEEEEEEEEEEEHEEEHEEHEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEE HEHEEHEEHEHEEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEE!!!!

 Ash: Heheheheheheh. She doesn’t mean that, Kyle! But you probably already knew that! Heheheheheheh.

 It’s true! Despite Fuku’s violent movement and pleas to stop, she was having all kinds of fun having her feet tickled by her little adopted brother. It’s hard for her to hate tickles from a cutie like him. X3 And Kyle’s quite the little tickler working his magic on her immensely sensitive feet too, keeping up with all of her sporadic movements somehow with all ten of his fingers. But once Kyle started tickling her with his toys however, he enlisted help from Ash. He had to! To get the best laughs possible out of Fuku with his toys, he needed her feet to be as still as possible. And Ash was more than willing to lend him a hand; first by straddling Fuku’s legs, facing away from Fuku herself in the recliner and trapping her feet between her thighs. And if that wasn’t enough, Ash also bound her two big toes together with a green pipe cleaner, to prevent her from pulling her feet apart at any given time, AND bent her toes backwards to stretch out her soles until they were all taut! With Fuku's movement limited even more, Kyle was then able to use his toys to his heart’s content. And the first toy he used was the green wooden train with magnets on both ends. His wooden Percy train to be exact, from his Thomas the Tank Engine collection of wooden railway trains. Percy's his favorite character from that franchise, and not just because he’s green (Kyle’s favorite color) and has the number 6 (Kyle’s favorite number) on both sides of his body. He likes Percy’s personality as well. And as he rolled Percy's wheels against the soles of Fuku’s feet (first against the right sole and then against the left sole), Fuku herself just laughed up a storm, much like she did when he tickled her there with his fingers. Only that time her laughter sounded even more melodic, due to the much more limited movement of her feet.

 Fuku: EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!! GYAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!! KYLE, OH MY GOHOHOHOHOD!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!! HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

 Kyle: Heeheeheehee! Choo, choo! Heeheeheehee! All aboard! *teased Kyle, rolling Percy's wheels up and down Fuku's taut soles with every passing second and showing no signs of stopping anytime soon*

 Fuku: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!! HOHOHOLY BLEEEEEEEEEP, ASH, LET ME MOVE MY FEEHEEHEEHEET!!!! *pleaded Fuku through her melodic laughter, desperately trying to move her feet along with the rest of her body* HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! LET ME MOVE MY FEET, HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA, PLEASE, HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, PLEEEEEEEEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEASE!!!! *SQUEAK* KYAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

 Ash: Heheheheh. Why? So you can knock his train out of his hand? Heheheheh. No, ma'am! No, ma'am! *teased Ash, while continuing to hold Fuku’s feet steady for Kyle* For all those fire exit alarms you set off, you must suffer! *she added, recalling three instances on the Surface where Fuku tripped fire exit alarms, under the impression that the fire exits on the Surface were for fire elementals such as herself to exit out of rather than exits used in case of a fire XD* Heheheheheheh.

 Fuku: HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! I'M SOHOHOHORRY!!!! HAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHA!!!! I THOUGHT THEY WERE EXITS, HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, FOR FIRE ELEMENTAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHALS!!!! *SQUEAK* GYEEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEE KAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

 Kyle: Heeheeheehee! Well, they're not. *Kyle pointed out while continuing to roll Percy's wheels against Fuku's bare soles* Sooner or later, you're going to have to learn that fire exits work differently up here, Fuku. Same goes for loitering! *he added, recalling three instances where Fuku got kicked out of some place for loitering, something she did a great deal of in the Underground without any consequences whatsoever* There's a lot of places up here that don't like that.

 Fuku: HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! YEAH, HOHOHOW ABOUT THAHAHAT?!?! *SQUEAK* HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!! ALMOST MAHAHAHAKES ME WAHAHAHANT TO MOVE, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, BACK TO HOHOHOHOTLAND!!!! HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!! ALMOHOHOHOHOST!!!! *SQUEAK* KYEEEEEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEHEEHEE!!!!

 After about two minutes, Kyle replaced Percy with a special red Hot Wheels race car with orange flames, special because it’s the first Hot Wheels car that Trent, who played Hot Wheels with him more than anyone, ever got for him. X3 And just as he did with Percy, he rolled that car's wheels against Fuku's soles, causing the teenage fire elemental herself to laugh up a storm once again. And to make her laugh even more, he made car noises, like any typical little boy that likes toy cars would. Kyle really likes his Hot Wheels and when he's not rolling them up and down the soles of his adopted sister's feet, he’s playing with them in his bedroom, usually on the track sets that he has for them, and either by himself or with friends and/or family. X3

 Kyle: Vroom, vroom, vrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! Heeheeheehee! Vroom, vroom!

 Fuku: EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!! KYAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!!! OHOHOHOH MY GYAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! *SQUEAK* OH, IT’S TOO MUHUHUHUCH!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA!!! THE TIHIHIHICKLES, HAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, THE CUTE CAHAHAHAR SOUNDS, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHA, IT’S ALL JUHUHUHUST TOO BLEEHEEHEEHEEPING MUHUHUHUHUHUHUHUCH!!!! HAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! *SQUEAK* GYEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEEHIHIHIHHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHI HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

 Kyle was being a cheeky little boy, making car noises while tickling Fuku’s feet with a Hot Wheels car. X3 And that cheekiness continued when he replaced that car with his kangaroo figurine, first by poking her soles repeatedly with both of its feet, pretending that it was hopping on her soles.

 Kyle: Heeheeheeheehee! Boing, boing, boing, boing! The kangaroo's hopping on your feet, Fuku. Heeheeheehee! Boing, boing, boing, boing!

 Fuku: KYEEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEHEEHEHEHEEHEHEHEHEEHEHEHEEHEHEEHEHEEHEE!!! NOHOHOHOHOHO, MAKE IT STOP!!! HAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!! MAKE IT STOP HOHOHOPPING ON MY FEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEET!!! *pleaded Fuku, desperately trying to curl her toes only to be prevented from doing so by Ash, who couldn't for the life of her stop giggling at Kyle's hopping sound effects* HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA!!! OH WHY DOHOHOHOES THAT HAHAHAHAVE TO TICKLE SO MUCH TOO?!?! *SQUEAK* GYEEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEE!!!

 Ash: Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe! We can't hehehehehelp it that you have the most sensitive feeheeheeheet, babe! Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehe!

 Then after a while, Kyle traced his kangaroo's tail against Fuku's soles, causing her to laugh even more than before because the kangaroo's tail, with its hard pointed tip, felt like a writing utensil digging into and dragging against her soles with every passing second. It tickled so much. Too much! Too much for Fuku to handle, even without any verbal teasing thrown into the mix! Writing utensils are some of the most effective tools to tickle Fuku's feet with. In fact, they'd be the most effective tools for the job if it wasn't for one other thing that tickles her even more. What's more effective than writing utensils? Well, it was nothing that Kyle had on him but rather, something that Ash was hiding without Fuku's knowledge as well as something that she was planning to tickle Fuku with after Kyle finished up tickling her with his toys. That sneaky demon. ;)

 Fuku: EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!! KYEEEEEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEHEEHEE!!! *SQUEAK* GAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! OHOHOH THAT'S SO BAHAHAHAHAD!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! *SQUEAK* OH MY GAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAD, *SQUEAK* HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA, YOU AHAHAHAREN'T SECRETLY USING A PEHEHEHEHEN, ARE YOU?!?! *asked Fuku through her melodic laughter, unable to tell the difference between a pen and a kangaroo figurine's tail in her current state* HEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEE HIHIHIHIHIHIHIIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHA!!!!

 Kyle: Heeheeheehee! Nope. That's my kangaroo's tail you're feeling, fire sis. Honest. And this is its nose! *exclaimed Kyle, right as he began sticking his kangaroo's nose, which also felt like the tip of a writing utensil, in each of the spaces between her toes one by one*

 Fuku: EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!! *shrieked Fuku, throwing her fiery head back as much as she possibly could before acting as if she was going to die* GYAHAAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!! OHOHOH MY GOHOHOHOD, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, YOHOHOU'RE KILLING MEEHEEHEEEHEEHEEEHEEHEE!!!! HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! KYLE, YOU'RE KILLING MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHEEHEEHEEHEEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEE!!!! *SQUEAK* HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! OHOHOHOH MY GOHOHOHOD, GET THAT BLEEHEEHEEHEEPING THING AWAY FROM MEEEHEEHEEHEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEE!!!! *SQUEAK* KYAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

 How typical of Fuku to overreact to tickles from a little toy kangaroo. But then again, that’s what teenagers do. They overreact to things. And once Kyle replaced that kangaroo with a troll doll given to him by Kiaya as a birthday present during one of his early childhood years, she did much of the same. She overreacted during every passing second Kyle spent brushing the troll’s furry up-combed hair against her soles and toes and in between her toes. As for the troll’s appearance, it had red hair, a green striped shirt, and blue pants but no shoes; basically what Kyle would look like if he was a troll rather than a human. X3

 Fuku: EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!! KYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! WOHOHOHOHOHOAH MY GYOOOOOOOOAAAAAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAD, WHAT IS THAHAHAHAHAHAAHAAT?!?! *SQUEAK* HAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! WHAHAHAHAHAHAT IS THAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAT DEHEHEHEHEATHLY TICKLY THING?!?! *SQUEAK*GYEEEEEHEEHEHEEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEEEHEHEHEEHEEHEEHEHEE HEEHEEHEHEHEEHEHEEHEEHEHEHEEHEHEHEEHEEHEHEE!!!!

 Ash: Heheheheheheh. Well, that’s certainly one way to TROLL your sissy, Kyle. *chuckled Ash, moments before turning around and looking at Fuku with best troll face she could possibly make XD* Heheheheheheheh.

 Fuku: EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAHHAHAAHHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHA!!!! OHOHOOHHOHOHOH MY GOHOHOHOHOD, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, OH, THAT TICKLES SOHOHOHHOHO MUCH MOHOHOHOHORE THAHAHAHAHAN FEHEHEHEHEHEHATHERS!!!! *claimed Fuku through her laughter, completely ignoring Ash’s troll face while shaking violently in the recliner* GYAHAHAHAHHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! *SQUEAK* EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!! *SQUEAK* KYEEEEEEHEEEHEEHEEHEHEEHEEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEEHEEHEEHEE HIHIIHIHHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIIHIHIHHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHI HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

 Kyle had a blast tickling Fuku’s feet with his troll doll. He simply couldn’t get enough of her highly exaggerated reactions as he cheekily brushed its soft up-combed hair against her soles and toes and in between her toes, repeating how he used to tickle Kiaya’s feet with a troll doll when he was younger, usually with Trent holding her legs down for him. X3 And like Fuku, Kiaya enjoyed being tickled that way by Kyle very much. But unlike Fuku, Kiaya never overreacted. Not like Fuku, anyway, despite how immensely ticklish her feet were. Fuku went all kinds of berserk the moment she felt that troll hair brush against one of her soles. And if Fuku thought that she was going to be given a breather after Kyle finished tickling her with his troll doll, she was sorely mistaken. The moment Kyle put away his troll doll, he grabbed his toy T-Rex with a mouth that he can open and close whenever he pleases. Then after asking Ash to hold Fuku's feet in a position that granted him access to her toes, he made his T-Rex chomp on Fuku’s toes one by one, causing Fuku herself to scream with laughter and flail about in the recliner once more. And to make her laugh even more, Kyle also made dinosaur noises, just like any little boy that likes dinosaurs would. And he did so with great enthusiasm too, which pleased Ash greatly because it was an indicator of how much more comfortable he had gotten around her. The little boy that had acted so shyly around her earlier was now acting as if he were her own little brother. And she was all for that! Not just because she has no younger siblings of her own but also because Kyle's such a sweet little boy that can brighten up anyone's day with his mere presence alone. X3 …Or in Fuku's case, with tickles. ;)

 Kyle: Dinosaur, Raaaaawwwwwr! T-Rex! Raaaaawwwwwr! Chomp, Chomp, chomp! Raaaaaaawwwwwwwwwr! T-Rex is hungry! Raaaaaawwwwwwwr! Chomp, chomp, chomp!

 Fuku: EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!! HAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHA!!! *SQUEAK* NYOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOHOHOHOOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOOHOHOHOOHHOHO!!! *SQUEAK* NOHOHOHOHO!!! HAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! OHOHOH, MAKE IT STOP, MAKE IT STOHOHOP, MAHAHAKE IT STOHOHOHOHOP!!! HAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!! OOOHOOHOOHOOH, DON'T BITE THEHEHEM OFF!!! *SQUEAK* GYEEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEE!!!

 Ash: Pffffff… Hahahahahahahaha! Now just how the hell is he going to do that, babe? *asked Ash, finding it hilarious how Fuku apparently believes that she's going to lose her toes to a toy dinosaur*

 Fuku: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!!! I DOHOHOHON'T KNOHOHOHOW!!! HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHA!!! MAHAHAHHAGIC?!?! *answered Fuku while continuing to laugh so melodically, despite the fact that what Ash asked was a rhetorical question* HEEEHEEHEEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEEHEEHEEHEEHEE!!! *SQUEAK* HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA!!! OHOHOHOH MY GOHOHOD, WHY DO THOHOHOHOSE TOY TEEHEEHEETH HAVE TO TICKLE SO BLEEHEEHEEHEEPING MUHUHUHUHUCH?!?! *SQUEAK* HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA!!! OHOHOH AND THOHOHOSE DINO NOHOHOHOISES!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! TOO MUCH!!! HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! IT'S ALL JUST TOOHOOHOO MUHUHUHUHUCH!!! *SQUEAK* GYAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

 Kyle: Awww! I love you too, Fuku. X3

 For two minutes, Kyle tickled Fuku's toes with his toy T-Rex. Two minutes of a toy dinosaur chomping on her toes one by one! And boy did its teeth tickle more than Fuku thought it would, as made evident by all of her violent movement in the recliner and her loud melodic laughter and squealing! The same goes for the other toys that Kyle used. They all tickled so much… so damn much… which is why Fuku felt a huge sense of relief by the time it was all over. But she wasn't completely off the hook just yet. Sure, Kyle may have finished tickling her with his toys but there was still something that Ash wanted to tickle Fuku with, something that would tickle her far more than any of Kyle's toys. ;)

Oh no, what will be wrong with Aneira that Randall would feel that he needed to ask for Arceus' help?

My current canon (could change in either small ways or big ways) is that she's a preemie.

I'll just put a disclaimer here that any time I talk about Aneira, as I will be here, I'll be keeping spoilers to a minimum, and will avoid important spoilers altogether. (The only element I see being an offensive spoiler is Momo and Midas' adult appearances or maybe their adult lifestyles, and I'm not sure how much people would be offended by that. X3)

I don't know when I'll get to the point of actually telling Aneira's story, so I'll say that this will contain spoilers in that regard, should I ever officially tell it. (More likely though, she'll be a "future child shenanigans" character.)

This got pretty long, so I'll put a Keep Reading bar just to declutter lol.

Aneira will be born sometime after Midas and Momo have grown up, and all three Linden children have started on their own individual paths. They'll be close still, and within telepathy range, but they'll end up with their own driving motives that lead them apart physically.

Feeling a bit of empty nest syndrome, Randy and Akoya decide to try for another kit. But this one doesn't go as smoothly as the twins did. Akoya never gets that feeling of her energy changing to support the little one, which in my world happens very early on and is the first sign of Mew pregnancy.

Without that first confirmation, Akoya is surprised when she starts experiencing other pregnancy symptoms. They go through the means necessary to confirm that yes, she is pregnant. But she never fully believes or accepts it, or wonders if the baby is alive. (Schrodinger's cat lol). Or fearing what the lack of Psychic connection might mean for the child. Or even wondering if she had missed the feeling somehow.

With these worries causing Akoya a lot of stress, she goes into labor too early.

I haven't yet decided the scope of the issues Aneira has, but it's very strenuous on her parents and siblings. (Midas especially will be a big help.)

Thank you for attending my baby brain barf. I hope you enjoyed the read~

But what they did possess was a profound will to fight - one that would extend beyond Ukrainian soldiers to ordinary civilians and, most important, to the president himself. Ukrainian forces lacked sufficient weaponry, ammunition and communications equipment. Commanders had moved personnel and equipment off bases, despite in many cases their own doubts about what was to come. and European political and military officials.Ī reconstruction of events shows that even as Ukraine’s political leadership had downplayed the likelihood of a full-scale invasion, the Ukrainian military had taken critical steps to withstand Russia’s initial assault. This account of how Ukrainian forces defended, and saved, their capital is based on interviews with more than 100 people - from Zelensky and his advisers, to Ukrainian military commanders, to volunteer militiamen, as well as senior U.S. To the surprise of the world, the offensive against the Ukrainian capital would end in a humiliating retreat, which would expose deep systemic problems in a Russian military he had spent billions to rebuild.ĭespite the flaws that would emerge in Russia’s war planning, the outcome of the battle for Kyiv was far from predetermined. His assault on the city instantly reordered the security architecture of Europe against Moscow and isolated his nation to a degree unseen since the Cold War. Instead, what transpired in and around Kyiv in the ensuing 36 days would represent the biggest foreign blunder in the 22-year rule of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Moscow could install a puppet government. If the Russians could seize the seat of power in Ukraine, or at least cause the government to flee in panic, the defense of the country would quickly unravel. The question everyone faced at that moment, Monastyrsky said, was: “How far can the enemy go with that enormous fist?” … There were 20-meter craters, the likes of which no one has seen in their lifetimes,” Monastyrsky later recalled. “In the first minutes, they delivered terrible blows to our air defense, terrible blows to our troops in general. “Judging by the fact that there are attacks underway at different places all at once, this is it,” he said, telling Zelensky that it looked like a full-scale invasion bearing down on Kyiv. “It has started,” Monastyrsky told the Ukrainian leader.

Manufactured by Accuracy International, the L115A3 long range rifle fires an 8.59mm bullet which is heavier than the 7.62mm round of the L96 and less likely to be deflected over extremely long ranges.

Cue a young lion cub pouncing off a few rocks and landing right onto Nuka's back

He yowled like his tail’d been trod on by an elephant, and whipped around in an instinctive attempt to send whatever it was flying. Instead, when he caught sight of the fur, there was a frustrated growl that started low in his throat.

Unfinished Friday - fic 3

Peter x3

Summary: Peter 2 and 3 like to tease Peter 1.

A/N: This is probably gonna be the last fic for tonight. The rest I have just aren’t interesting enough to post. This was based on a prompt so sorry I never properly finished it lol.

Words: 309

“We’re gonna get you.”

It had turned into a thing the past week, with Peter 3 announcing each time he was planning on wrecking Peter in that incredibly ticklish way he’d mastered. Something about how Peter reacted, something about watching him prepare but never flee. It was embarrassing, but Peter couldn’t deny its effect.

He squirmed now, always squirming as if he could feel the tickles already. “Oh, come on, it’s late.”

“All the better to tire you out properly, huh?”

Peter 2 perked up at the mention of it. They didn’t need to plan ahead - he was always ready to join. “Any specific spot you’d prefer?” he asked, masking it as consideration but really just enjoying the way Peter would inevitably think about it without wanting to admit it. “I’m not sure your ribs can handle any more today.”

Peter rubbed at said ribs. “No, maybe not. Wait, don’t-”

“Don’t what?” Peter 3 had crept closer to him as they’d spoken, although Peter wasn’t worried about the attack yet. He always announced that one as well. “Oh, surely you’re not gonna ask us to not do it? You know you can’t lie to us.”

Peter 2 nodded. “We can see right through you.”

“You’re practically transparent.”

Peter averted his eyes, his blush nearly hurting him. It had started when Peter had screamed when Peter 3 had snuck a tickle attack on him, and he now used the lack of the element of surprise just to torture him a bit extra. “Can’t have you die of fright,” he’d said, but Peter was now certain he would die of embarrassment instead.

The worst part was that it was a gentle sort of teasing. They never went overboard, which was almost worse. It left space for them to watch him crumble anyway.

How had this become a thing to begin with?
