Settling The Score

post s3/2 ii tickle fic

lee: lightbulb

ler: paintbrush, fan, test tube

summary: THEY GOT REVENGE !! YIPPEE

word count: 778

“I love their songs but Spoiled Lemon’s really pissing me off lately y’know?” Fan stated, mindlessly tapping his foot on the grass.

Paintbrush looked over at him. “..What does that have to do with this-”

“Yeah he was upset about that last week and I tickled him lol” Lightbulb added, nonchalantly leaning on him.

“...Okay you did NOT need to tell them that-”

“Wait she did that to you too?” Paintbrush and Test Tube asked simultaneously. They immediately looked at each other, both a bit surprised.

“Wh- she did that to me like.. a week ago !”

“She did it to me the other night!”

Everyone turned to look at Lightbulb, who casually smiled back at them. “Ohh yeah I did, huh? Pfft- Crazy how that happens, right?”

The others were silent, exchanging glances with each other for a few moments before Paintbrush spoke up again. “Revenge?” They asked, looking at Test Tube.

“Revenge.” She responded.

“Yep, revenge.” Fan agreed, looking back at Lightbulb.

Lightbulb perked her head up, her gaze quickly shifting between the three of them. She immediately turned around and dashed off, laughing to herself as she did so. “GOTTA CATCH ME FIRST !!” She called out playfully.

“AFTER HER!” Paintbrush declared, running off as well with Fan following close behind.

“Oh- Uh- I’ll try ??” Test Tube said awkwardly, already lagging behind the group a little.

And with that, the chase was on. Lightbulb was considerably faster than the others so she was far in the lead, weaving through the trees as she strayed further from the hotel. She glanced behind her and saw how far back the others were, slowing down a little so they could catch up. Test Tube stopped by a tree to catch her breath. “Golly, I should REALLY exercise more..” She said to herself.

Fan glanced behind him. “You okay Test Tube?”

“I’ll catch up!” She called back

As the forest became thicker, Lightbulb became harder to spot. Soon enough, she disappeared out of sight completely, causing Fan and Paintbrush to stop running.

“Uh- Where’d she go ?” Paintbrush asked. Fan just shrugged. He tried to listen for her but it was weirdly quiet all of a sudden.

Lightbulb pressed her back against a tree, covering her mouth to suppress her laughter. She peeked out from behind the tree and quickly spotted Fan and Paintbrush. She snickered a little more as she saw them glancing around, clearly confused.

Suddenly Lightbulb felt a pair of arms wrap around her, yelping in surprise as she was lifted off the ground. “GUYS! I GOT HER!” Test Tube called out.

“Great job! Bring her back to the field!” Paintbrush called back. The three of them started walking, Lightbulb half-heartedly “trying” to free herself. They soon arrived at the same spot they’d been at before and stopped. Test Tube held Lightbulb up by her wrists as the other two turned to face her.

“This isn’t fair! It’s 3 v 1!” Lightbulb exclaimed, already snickering in anticipation and trying to find her footing.

Fan cracked his knuckles. “Shoulda thought about that before!”

Paintbrush stepped towards Lightbulb’s side, a smirk on their face. “Alright, now where to start..” They hovered their fingers over her torso, not making contact yet. Fan darted forward, interrupting Paintbrush’s taunting and scribbling his fingers over Lightbulb’s side, causing her to burst out laughing. Paintbrush rolled their eyes, an amused smile on their face as they joined him.

“Wait- ! I’m sorry !” Lightbulb exclaimed, immediately getting ignored by the others. She lightly thrashed around as she laughed, unable to keep herself still. Test Tube snickered a bit, lightly tapping against the palm of her hand. “Jeez, I think she’s more ticklish than the rest of us!”

“Yeah, not Fan though.”

“Hey !” Fan playfully elbowed Paintbrush’s arm, who just laughed in response.

After a few more moments, the group slowed their attack to a stop, silently agreeing Lightbulb had had enough. Test Tube let go of her hands, instead wrapping her arms around her and pulling her into a hug. Lightbulb leaned back against her, letting out the last little bits of her laughter.

“Ya good?” Fan asked her, Lightbulb nodding in response.

“You guys are so mean to me,, what did I ever do to you?” She complained jokingly, causing Paintbrush to roll their eyes in amusement. “Can’t imagine. Anyway, I’d say the score is settled now, right?” They held out their hand.

“Hmm.. I guess so, yeah.” Lightbulb agreed, returning the handshake. She then smirked at them, abruptly pulling them towards her and into the hug, Fan quickly joining as well. Paintbrush let out a startled yelp before laughing it off and hugging them all back.

i always find it funny when theres a tickle scene and a character is accidentally being tickled and another character is scolding them to pull it together. like. they cant help it! they didnt choose to be ticklish!! theyre probably trying their best!!!

[giggly-moon]

saw somewhere that balloon is canonically aromantic and i don’t know if that’s actually true but it is to me now regardless so you know that i am gonna project my own aromantic experience on him SO HARD

The inconsistencies in the cast makes sense.

Why Yin-Yang’s sides/names are swapped.

Why Paper’s Evil Persona existed and then disappeared.

Why some characters’ personalities are borderline stereotypical of their objects.

It’s because MePhone CREATED them.

He didn’t know what side was Yin and Yang

He didn’t know how to accurately represent DID.

He didn’t know how to make characters that aren’t related to what they are.

It’s a stereotypical view that all new creators do.

it drives me crazy how much that twist completely changes your perspective on the series and characters as a whole, and how much it must have completely flipped the character’s worlds upside down. it makes that one scene of cabby not being able to remember her parents much worse too, because she doesn’t have parents. none of them do, they don’t have families or homes or actual lives outside of the show, they were made for the show so the show is all they know. me phone originally created them as silly cartoon characters with funny quirks (like tissues always being sick, with mephone saying “i thought it was a cute idea!” but you just know it makes tissues absolutely miserable) but then those characters became real people and those funny quirks he assigned them started to affect their lives and relationships and their mental health in really shitty ways

*Slides in*

Now

Now you know how I feel

Now you know how I feel about Inanimate Insanity/j

(tumblr broke on me the first time i tried answering this ask </3)

i really do now know how you feel about inanity insamity and it feels like a crime that i put off watching it for so long

my mind has been invaded by lightbulb and paintbrush and paper and oj and nickel and balloon and suitcase

[giggly-moon]

,,finished inan,,,imate,,,insanity

god i need to yap about this show in some way it’s so good and the ending made me feel so many emotions and APPARENTLY THERES GONNA BE MORE THIS YEAR?? i’m definitely not expecting a full on season 4 since the ending of season 2 felt very much like an ending ending yknow but i am hoping we get to see what all the characters are doing now (especially paper and oj now that they’ve been confirmed a canon couple i NEED to see them doing cute couple things)

[giggly-moon]

okay so i’m finally watching inan🧍‍♂️imate insanity and i’m making my way through season three right now and can i just say. when i saw that this episode was called try not to laugh challenge i got Really Nervous and i don’t know whether to be relieved or disappointed that there wasn’t a tickle scene in it LMAO

BUT ALSO. i can’t stop thinking about this part where nickel looks all smug after making balloon laugh. for obvious reasons

[giggly-moon]

i’ve been thinking up more object show ocs and i’ve gotta make some kind of post for them cause i’m already so obsessed with them

[giggly-moon]

i NEED to try and write something with gaty and two after that episode because my heart is in shambles. they’re the best friends ever :(

Also I have this really specific beef when people make Elpenor look/written as wise and older than the rest, especially Perimedes.

Because this man, this stupid man/affectionate, died from falling off a roof. If that isn’t the most college thing ever, then what is?

this man really decided it would be a good idea to get drunk on the roof of a palace, he’s definitely the frat boy of odysseus’ crew
