Imagine, you’re having a bad week. Nothing’s going right and you’re super down in the dumps. Your friend, who’s in the tickling community, messages you and asks how you’re doing.
“I’m having a crappy week. I’m undeniably sad..” you reply.
Your friend is sad for you and thinks of a way to cheer you up. An idea pops in their head.
“Give me a sec…” they say.
Okay? You ponder, wondering where they could possibly be going with this…
You get a notification on your phone. Huh. Your friend invited you to be in a group chat. Five people, including your friend, are all in it. You shrug. Maybe they’re all gonna offer you words of affirmation and love? You could use some of that. So you hit accept and join their group chat.
“Great! You’re here!” Your friend greeted.
“Welcome!”
“Hellooo!”
“They’ve finally joined!”
“Took you long enough lol”
Their friends all greeted, their messages coming in one after the other.
“Thanks. So what’s this all about?” You ask them.
“Well… I kinda told them you were having a bad day and we all wanted to help cheer you up… so-“
“So… what?” You asked, not thinking much of what the outcome could be.
And then they all struck… your friend had typed that they had sat on your waist and pinned you down, two of the others typed that they’ve grabbed your ankles, while the other two typed that they’ve grabbed your wrists and held them up above your head. And they all began wrecking you…
Different messages had flooded in saying there were fingers scribbling up your belly and ribs… there were fingers spidering up and down your legs…and the other hands were attacking under your arms!
“GAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAAAA!!! NAHAHAHAHAHHOOO!! STOP STOP STAHAHAHAHAHHPPP!!! PLEHEHEHEEASSEEE AHAHAHAHAHAA!!!” You responded.
You had wrote that you were a messy fit of nothing but laughter. There was a tad bit of playful unwillingness, but a lot of it was pure fucking joy. Your friend and their friends were giving you the time of your life. Forget what you were sad about before! These caring, friendly yet super playfully skilled online Lers were wrecking you collectively!
“FUHUHUHUHUHUCK!! PLEHEHEHEHEHEEASEEE!! NAHAHAHAHAHAAAHHOOOOO!! LET ME GO! LET ME GOOOHOHOHOHO!!!” You begged playfully, typing out that you were squirming every which way to escape, but couldn’t!
Your friend and their friends bought into this and brought on the onslaught of teases…
“No no no! You’re not moving an inch! Tickle, tickle, tickle! You so desperately need these cheer up tickles! Especially your midsection! Kitchy kitchy coooo~!”
“You’re being such a good little lee, cooperating with us and allowing this spider hand to explore all over ticklish leg… tickle tickle~!”
“You their left side tickles? We try their right… it reeeeally tickles~… coochie coo~!”
“Their underarms are crazy ticklish though! Hey! Don’t try and lowering your arm! You’re really gonna get it now! Tktktktktktktktk!!”
“Their right one is giving just a bit too! Hold it up hire, dang it! You’re literally just asking for it! Scribble scribble scribble scribbleeeee~. Laugh laugh~!”
Just as you thought you had enough, your friend typed that they had raised your shirt and blew the biggest raspberry into your belly. That absolutely did it. You were WRECKED. You wrote that your whole upper body jolted up, as if someone kickstarted your heart with a pair of jumper cables!
“BWAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!!! NONONONOOOOO!! I’M ALL GOOD!!! I’M AHAHAHALLLL GOOOOOOHOOHOOHOOHOOOOOODDDDD!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!! PLEASE STOP! PLEHEHEHEEASSSEE- MEHEHEHERRRRCYYYY!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAA!!!”
“Wait, wait. Stop.” Your friend ordered. “I think they’re good. I think they’re good.”
You type out that you had caught your breath and sent a thumbs up emoji. Even though it wasn’t real, you felt it and it felt good!
“You all good?” Your friend asked.
“Hell yeah. Man, that was fun. Thank you all for helping me cheer up. I know you don’t know me but…”
“We’d be happy to be your friend!”
“Yeah! And give you cheer up tiggles if you want any!”
“We’ve got your back forever now. Tickles or not.”
“You forever have our tickle support, you absolute lee~.”
You grinned reading all this support. You were so happy you had people who had your support and gave you tiggles to boot! You wiped the happy tears from your eyes and took a moment to reflect before typing back,
“Thank you all… so so much. You have made my day the greatest it’s ever been.”
They all responded back giving you one big group hug… and a couple of pokes here and there~.
