I love that the vibe in the AA fandom today is simultaneously “HOLY SHIT WE WON!!!” And “I am not fucking calling him that.”

✿ PROMISE? ✿ PART ONE.

𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠: chris x fem!reader

𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲: guess who’s back in town: the sturniolo triplets. it’s for their birthday party their parents are throwing, the same party your parents force you to go to.

𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬: swearing

𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭: 1,054

𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐫'𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐞: we’re locked in on the series, folks!

𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐂𝐀𝐍’𝐓 𝐆𝐎 𝐀 𝐃𝐀𝐘 without seeing something along the lines of the sturniolo triplets, and it fucking pisses you off. your parents went to high school with theirs and were really close. your mom got pregnant with you around the same time marylou got pregnant with the triplets, your “best friends.”

the same triplets that left you months ago because of their career of being youtubers. the least they could’ve done was still message you, but no. they unfollowed you on everything.

you texted them multiple times, but all you got was one-word answers or no answer at all. as much as you didn’t want to, you stopped trying after a while because it was no use.

your parents still hang out with marylou and jimmy, sometimes even justin when he’s in town. at least you got one more best friend that you grew up with, nathan doe.

nathan is the youngest out of the four of you. nick, matt, and chris are turning twenty tomorrow and nate’s turning nineteen on the ninth. you’ve been nineteen since april, so you’re right in the middle.

you guys met him in elementary school and he was the last piece of the puzzle. you guys were even called the FOREVER FIVE, something you all made up at a sleepover in the fourth grade.

of course the three stooges didn’t drop him when they left. favoritism, i guess.

you scroll angrily on tiktok. it’s like the app senses your hatred for them and decides to put edits or clips from their videos on your for you page. this shit is definitely not for you.

then, there’s a knock on your bedroom door. “come in.” you call out, and your mother comes in. she sits on your bed and sighs. “what’s up?” you ask.

she gives you a face of sympathy, and it scares you a little. “the triplets are back in town.” she starts, and that gains your attention. “and i want you to come with me and your father to their birthday party tomorrow.”

“no.” you flat-out say. it’s no secret that your mom knows about your hatred either since you cried to her for a week straight about how they abandoned you.

“y/n, please.” your mom puts a hand on your knee. “marylou would love to see you there. she asks about you, you know. she misses you.”

frowning, you start to think. you miss her too. you never blamed her for what her sons did, but you haven’t seen her since they left. she is the sweetest lady you’ve ever met. “and they’re celebrating nate’s birthday, too. you have to at least show up for him, okay?”

you exhale sharply. “okay.”

⋆⁺₊⋆ ✿ ⋆⁺₊⋆

𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐏𝐔𝐋𝐋 𝐔𝐏 𝐓𝐎 𝐓𝐇𝐄 party the next day with your parents, making your way to the backyard where it’s held. not a lot of people are there, just close friends and family. you scan the area at the top of the steps for nathan, getting disappointed when you don’t see him.

marylou engulfs you in a hug the moment you step on the grass. “hello, sweetheart!” she exclaims, pulling away with a big smile on her face. she places her hands on your shoulders. “how are you doing? you feeling okay?”

“i’m doing fine!” you reply in the same tone, putting on a fake smile.

“thank you so much for coming. i know it’s been a little… strange for you for the past few months. i’m sorry about that.”

“please don’t apologize. you did nothing wrong,” you say and she pulls you back in for another hug.

“if you want, the boys are standing by the chips and dip. if not, don’t be afraid to make yourself comfortable.” she points to the numerous folding tables set up.

god, you missed this woman. “i will. thank you so much.”

you walk over to the table where your parents are, placing your things down before joining them.

“twenty years old is fucking disgusting.” nick rants, dipping a chip in onion dip and popping it into his mouth.

the other two giggle. “yeah, well—” chris pauses when he turns his head and lands eyes on someone. “holy shit, guys.” he taps both of his brothers on the arm.

“look.” he continues, pointing at you from across the way when he gets his sibling’s attention. “we have to talk to her.”

“chris, no.” matt says. “do you not know that she hates us? it was shitty, what we did. that’s honestly my biggest regret.”

“we are petty losers for that.” nick chimes in.

chris crosses his arms. he would do anything to get you back into his life. there was no specific reason why they did what they did. they ghosted a lot of old friends ever since they moved to LA, and you got unlucky. “fine. if you guys won’t, i will. i want to get my best friend back.”

“chris, wait! that’s not a good idea!” the two scream at him as he starts to march over to you, who’s now pouring pepsi into a red solo cup.

you gasp out of shock when you turn around and see a brunette towering over you. “hi.” he says lowly. “i didn’t think you’d come.”

“i came for nate.” you say coldly. “where is he?”

“he has to do something before he comes.” you move over to start walking, but he steps in front of you.

“chris—”

“i’m so fucking sorry.” he apologizes. “we miss you.”

“should’ve thought of that before you woke up one day and decided to pretend i didn’t exist.”

his heart aches at your words. the three of them really are assholes. “can we just start over? please?”

“start over?” you scoff. “we can’t start over after all of that. i practically known you since birth, and you want to start over?”

“y/n, i’m—”

you peek over his shoulder and cut him off. “nate’s here.” you eventually get out of his way and start to head over to nate, but stop and turn back around.

there’s a hint of hope in chris that you changed your mind, but he was wrong. “i kept the note.”

he furrows his eyebrows. “what note?”

ouch.

you laugh to yourself. of course, he doesn’t remember. “never mind. happy birthday.” you mumble, walking off into the crowd.

The relationship of Winona Ryder and Brittany Murphy

So I did the industry of these two and it was very interesting if I have the correct information for Brittany, so what we going by is there both Scorpio stallions yes, Scorpio sons for Britney and Winona, where were known as a Scorpio, Venus, mercury and sun. Britney is a Scorpio son, Scorpio moon, Scorpio Venus mercury and Uranus in my video on TikTok. I said this is where her image changed may have come from. It’s suggests that she’s a Leo rising and some of the way she behaves as she got older before her just before her death and a few years before then she was doing like really weird like stances and stuff and she lost loads of weight and people are worried about her cause she was so little She was an amazing actress and I’m not just saying that because everybody says the same but she was very underrated. so going into their charts anyway let’s dive in like I said they’re both Scorpio which shows their connection with each other which I’ve put in the picture. There’s one picture I’ve put up there of her looking down they’re holding hands and they look like a really happy couple, and also Scorpio gets down like that and it will but their Scorpio VS were different because they sat in different houses and all the Scorpio. I’m sorry so society like the third house Gemini ruled but in her chart it is Scorpio/Libra because it’s placid so either way the third house had an impact on her image in her industry. Where third house represents short journeys your neighbours and your siblings and while you are nurses in this house, mixing everything up. This could’ve been where her weird partner choice came in not with Winona, but with the guys you married before she passed, it could also be why she lost so much weight so suddenly and  changed .as we look she could’ve well win by the people around her to lose weight and fit in because that time the night late 90s and the early 2000s were very fat phobic and you had to look a certain way and all of her colleagues were shocked by the way she looked even coming from Stacey – she pretends to be white., anyway, let’s dive into the Mars signs, so we’re known as a Mars and Aquarius say a lot of this in celebrities which would explain the whole androgyny of Aquarius. Think David Bowie and things like that people like that Justin Bieber like he looked like a young lesbian when he first came out excuse the pun not, and Britney‘s Mars was in opposition in Leo. If the house is alright, these two are going to have a really intense strong physical bond. Having your opposition in your mouth sign the sex is going to be amazing from experience, but even on a but also, if there’s a Mars in the seventh house position, you platonic level, which I don’t believe from these pictures that it was, they can bring in a lot of closeness, somebody you don’t feel scared of it to get close to in a physical way where you might with other people, they feel good to you oppositions can bring out the best in a person.

As we look at were known as Venus and mercury sun, Lilith stallion in the 11th cussing it into the 12th house we can show that those areas of her life are very important. A lot of celebrities will have this northern hemisphere planet showing because that is how we like seen on the outside world, what is seen and what is below the 12th house is your hidden enemies. You’re seventh house is your open enemies I’m telling you if these two were together they were like gonna be a fire repair, but a picture. Tell us 1000 words. and the connection is there without even going into it you can see how close they were. You can see how much they love each other. There’s so many pictures of them together and for when she was better at hiding her profile in the public guy, where is when Brittany got older and she changed her look many pictures of her acting a bit not out there but a little bit little bit crazy with people She came into her own when she took the role in 8 mile with Marshall Mather sa.k.a. Eminem.

 if this is gonna upset you don’t even bother reading it. I will put this in block Capitals at the end because I know Taylor Swift fans get annoyed about the fact that she is completely gay but just like a picture and you say

So like I said, Brittany is Mars is going to fall into Winona’s eighth house there’s gonna be a lot of growth there and then we known as Venus I mean Mars is going to be in in Britney‘s seventh house of relationship, it’s gonna show the open enemies of the moles and mazes at your energy is tax drive and your passion and how you get things done so it can’t be all bad and this is how I read the charts together and also were known as rising for sign fools into Brittany‘s fifth house of attraction for Leo risings conjunct the Neptune conjunct tinge her Neptune so whatever Neptune is in your chart, it can create delusions in that area of your life. The fifth house is a Leo house which was creativity acting being famous children. Maybe she really wanted a child often rising have trouble conceiving I had once Gemini and Leo were Baron, but there you go that are nutshell

[wellcomeoneileen]

I’m under the impression that this might be a super controversial opinion within the queer as folk fandom, and this is really me trying to price together my own thoughts, but I did not like that Britin’s first I love you was after the bomb.

An organic and personal moment between the two of them was what I expected the whole series, and I felt like the heightened drama took away from their I love you. It was already going to be a huge deal.

The extra drama, to ME, cheapens it somewhat. And I understand that the intention is that something drastic has to wake Brian up from his series long frame of mind and his S5 depression, but I feel like the shock of the moment for his character makes it seem like a frantic moment instead of heartfelt.

And they address this by Justin more or less saying that and Brian being like nope AND marry me I’m so so serious but then they nullify their own point by then backpedaling hard on that proposal and playing it off like Brian was only asked out of fear.

So the I love you was real but the proposal was out of fear, but having both yet with separate levels of seriousness muddled the waters to me.

Furthermore, the very intention that something had to shock Brian awake is just a direction I’m not on board with from the get-go.

The bomb itself wasn’t even really jumping the shark with the tone the show had already adopted, I just feel like Brian is backed into a corner too much for me to feel totally satisfied and smitten with a lot of their romance at the end. Like if more of Brian’s verbal affection + commitment choices were made when Brian had a bit more agency I think that would have been more romantic.

I really expected an almost anti-climatic I love you - like when they’re at home doing something ordinary and Brian pulls Justin in by the neck, touches foreheads, says it, and then just acts like it’s no big deal.

And it could have paralleled prom? Like Brian was openly loving towards Justin then Justin almost died, and now Brian could say I love you and then they almost die but this time he isn’t scared off? Idk I already think everything about S5 should have been thrown out idk why I’m trying to make this one part work LMAO….I’m really just trying to examine why this pivotal moment didn’t land for me personally, as kind of a storytelling exercise.

Best Years but not In the Same Way (31)

Calum Hood x Reader

Previous Part

Hi all thank you for still reading this crap story that i can’t ignored. After 3 years abandoned it, i came back and continue. I hope i will be able to finish it! Enjoy.

Masterlist

-

Since you and Calum made up, everything went back to normal. And about the RSVP for Justin’s wedding, you decided not to come. After a long talk with your boyfriend, alongside with consideration that Calum will go to the tour with Chainsmoker on September 25, You will release a single called Memories and will do promo and you two were busy.

And the real reason behind it was… you couldn’t. It was your ex fiancé big day and people’s eyes will judge you if you came. And you weren’t ready to face it.

Counting days to the release of your single. It was inspired by your late father. You have been missing him since the day you left him. You still regret it until today. What if you never run away from home and accepted that he married someone you hate. You might eventually love your step mother and became a real happy family. And all of the event that been going on in your life would never happened.

Out of nowhere, Mike Posner called you and you picked up.

“Hello sister!” He greeted me. “You’re not going to the studio?”

“No,” you shook your head. “I’m going to my dad’s. Is okay if I skipped helping you just for today? Please?”

“Sure. Sure. You go take your time. I will see you tomorrow, okay?” He hung up the call.

Then you get ready to go to the flower shop to get some flowers.

Hours later you arrived with a bunch of flowers and put it on their graves.

“Dad.” You called him. Obviously no answer. “You know what? I think you’re here and you could read what’s on my mind.” “He’ll get married in two weeks. Yeah, he was so easily moved on. He got engaged last year, when I struggled myself with my mental health. He legally married 2 months after, while I embarrassed myself in front of thousands people.”

“But I survived, dad. I’m here. Calum helped me through it. I just wish i never chose Justin over Calum.” You said it as if your dad listened.

You said goodbye to them and when you turned back you saw someone stood before you. You yelled but immediately covered your mouth with your palm.

“Sorry, i didn’t mean to scare you.” Barry said while giggled.

“No it’s fine. What you doing here?” You asked him. But you answered it right away. “Oh, your mom.”

He smiled. “How have you been, Bar?” His smile is truly genuine. You missed him so bad. The last time you saw him was January ‘17 when you were still engaged to Justin.

You returned his smile. “I’m doing good.” You paused. “It’s been a long time since the last time we met. How’s your dad, Iris and Joe?”

“They’re fine. They asked about you sometimes. Oh by the way, i have my own place now. No more staying with my dad.” He grinned. “At the apartement we used to lived.”

You stunned.

“It’s still cozy, by the way. Nothing has changed since i left.”

He way he said it was really calm and cheerful. He really made you speechless and couldn’t speak any single word. He really forgave you for all of your mistakes and it even made you adore him even more.

“Hey, you okay? You haven’t responded anything i said before.” Barry caught you. “Look, if i said something that might offended you, I’m sorry, okay? I didn’t mean any of it.”

You smiled. “I was just…,” you looked at his eyes. “I’m so happy i met you today. We never talk since 2017 and now, in 2019 we randomly met here and you came to greeted me and…” you couldn’t finished the rest of the speech because you ran out of words.

-

“Thank you for driving me here.” You said it while you and Barry walked to the lobby. “I know, i can drive and I’m supposed to have a car by my own. But… i still enjoy being this way.” You still need one moment to reassure yourself that you need a car. Well that was weird and stupid.

Barry laughed. “Okay okay, you really read my mind. Alright. I have to go to the police station.”

When Barry was about to turn back, you saw Calum opened the lobby door. You waved to him and he walked towards you smiling.

“Hey love.” He kissed your forehead. “I thought you still on your way here.”

“I got here faster because he drove me.” Your eyes pointed at Barry. And he was just smiled at both of you and Calum. “Cal, this is Barry.” You introduced him, your ex to your boyfriend. This wasn’t awkward you swear because there wasn’t any beef between them.

“I’m Barry, Barry Allen.” Barry gave his right hand. Calum was silent for 5 seconds but finally he shook Barry’s hand. You sighed in relieved and kinda giggled a little. Dude, this is one of the most angst moment you ever felt.

“Alright, i gotta go. Bye.” Barry went outside and you and Calum walked to the lift.

“Wow, i finally met him in person.” Calum talked when we inside the lift.

“Why is that?” You asked him curiously.

He chuckled. “I don’t know. He’s a good person and i had no beef with him. He’s very nice to you and I’m grateful for that.”

You nodded.

After minutes you and Calum made it to the apartment.

“Hey Cali,” you called him when he walked to the kitchen table to put some stuff. “What if i never ran away from my dad, and we never met?”

“I guess my life would be less drama and boring.” Said him. You just chuckled. “Seriously, i’d rather being in this complicated life with you than living with someone else.”

You smiled and hugged him tightly.

Icing the Star - Lee Jeno - Chapter 1

Word Count: 639

Warnings: None in Chapter 1

A/N: I am so excited to present to you ... Chapter onf my own story "Icing the Star." Please enjoy and Please be kind!!

Synopsis: Jeno was the star player of the Dream Volleyball Team. Y/n was the award winning coach of the Dream Volleyball Team. What happens when Jeno starts to grow feelings for y/n? Will he risk his team and Volleyball Championship for feelings he isn't even sure are reciprocated?

Y/N'S POV:

The only thing you actually like about your volleyball team right now is how hyped they’re getting for the semi-finals. You can hear their “zone music” from all the way in the gym coming from the locker rooms. It would actually be a hype playlist if you weren’t suffering through an extreme stress-headache right now. The reason for your stress? Your team barely won the last game. If it weren’t for Jeno spiking the ball from back center at the last second they would've lost. Jeno likes to rub that in your face. “I’m your savior coach, you can’t be mad at me.” Jeno has a past of “jokingly flirting” with you, although you’re not sure it’s a joke anymore. The team snaps you out of your thoughts when they walk up to you and ask if you're ready. 

“Ready?” Jeno says.

“Yeah…” you replied

“Are you okay?” Jaemin asked, worried after seeing your face.

“Yea, i’m good I just have a headache” you added

Another member named Chenle said “Ok, well…let’s hit the road”

They all took turns hitting him and saying “read the room dumbass.”

After 15 minutes on the road with an hour still to go until you’re at the other team’s stadium, we stop for a bathroom break because Haechan’s bladder “can only take so much weight.” This is why you never go for congratulatory drinks with the team after their games. You always knew Haechan was a lightweight, this just proved your point. The boys switch out driving so they don’t get tired, considering it’s 5:00 in the morning. Now the seating arrangements are Me and Jeno in the front seats(he’s driving because I still have a headache(Haechan is screaming the lyrics to Boyfriend by Justin Bieber), Haechan, Mark, & Jaemin in the middle row. And Jisung and Chenle in the back giggling. That’s the last thing you hear before you drift off to sleep.

JENO’S POV:

She looks so peaceful, asleep against the window, sunlight beaming off of her naturally tan skin and plump pink lips.

“Eyes on the road man, u tryna kill us before the second-most important game of our lives?” you hear Haechan spit out.

“Shut up, Dongfuck.” I say smirking, holding back a laugh.

He whines “I told you to stop calling me that.”

20 more minutes pass & I can’t help but put my hand on her bare thighs because it’s the closest I can be to her right now in the car with these morons.

Y/N’S POV:

You wake up to a warm hand on your bare thigh. You were startled at first forgetting you were in the car with 7 men. When you lift your head from the window Jeno looks to you, then his hand, then back to you to see how you feel about it. He ends up moving his hand anyways because your face displays no emotion on the matter, because to be honest you didn’t know how you felt. This was the first time you felt him touch your bare skin. Your ears flushed red at the thoughts of him touching other bare part of your body. You immediately shake those thoughts as you read the GPS connected to the car and read 10 minutes until your destination. You immediately turn down the stupid playlist Haechan insists on playing before every game and begin your “you can do it” pep talk and scary “if you lose I will kill you all” speech. Although you’re not sure if it even scares them anymore since you say it before every game. But you don’t have time to ponder on the matter because you’re pulling into the parking lot of the other team’s volleyball court. You all put your “game face” on, grab your clipboard and head inside for warmups.

I might just be cursed. Constantly living in a state of limbo from all sides.

Feeling masculine and feminine, nothing and everything at the same time. You’re a boy and a girl. You’re neither of those. You’re something else entirely. I can come to terms with this. I can’t fucking deal with this at all.

I remember being a little kid, having older siblings to look up to. Feeling like I related more to them despite what felt like an immense age gape between us than I did many of my peers. Wanting to be like my brothers. Feeling like I had to be like my sister. Generations older than other kids in my class, but a million times less experienced. A decade younger than my siblings, but matching them beat for beat in interests and taste, whether I felt like I was obligated to or did it out of pure curiosity. Most of the time, at least. I fought with my sister over if boy bands were good often, was still scared of certain movies my brothers tried to make me watch. Not quite siding with one or the other. Sitting in front of the TV flipping to channels I perhaps shouldn’t be watching. Mostly on an island time and again.

I remember telling someone on the bus that I was listening to AC/DC on my tiny iPod, filled up with music my siblings wanted me to explore for myself, enthusiastically backed by my mother. The only time she really supported my interests. This kid made a face as if I had said something wrong. That’s so old. Don’t you listen to anything from now? Taylor Swift? Justin Bieber? You’re so weird.

I don’t think I ever really cared until that moment. Out of touch already at the ripe old age of 12. I already felt like something was wrong with me, fighting my parents about how I presented myself to the world. One of my favorite shirts was an army surplus button-up one of my brothers had used for a school play that he kept and never wore again. I wore it just about every day like a security blanket around my shoulders, over white lacy blouses my sister held onto for ten years just for me. My mom made me donate it to the homeless shelter because she was tired of seeing me in it, not fully committing to the maturing girl she thought I was. And now, yet again, my tastes had come into question. You’re so weird.

I was never gonna fit in anywhere, I feared. I think, deep down, I still do. I have to not care, or else it’ll drive me to insanity. I’m so weird. It’s not a bad thing to me anymore, until it is.

Go forward in time. I look at the state of things, the way people my age talk and think online, and in my physical reality. I don’t think much has changed. I’m observing behaviors like those I encountered when I was 12, only they’re disguised under some falsified concern over morality. I love the movies that used to scare me. I’m fascinated with the boy bands my sister was infatuated with. Everyone else tells me there’s some inherent badness with engaging in them. A complacency with violence that I’ve never experienced. A sign of living in a problematic past full of cover ups and dirty secrets. Living in a limbo of trying to connect with what I once missed out on and a guilt for doing it now when it’s not right to do so. At least that’s what a few very loud voices have told me again and again.

I try not to care, but there’s still a kid inside who fears being the other. The thing everyone looks down their nose at. I’m sure there are still some that do.

I hardly talk to my siblings now, much too busy with our own little lives to catch up frequently. I have no real idea who they are anymore, if their tastes have changed. They must have. Everything else has. My connections to them deteriorated much like my connections with everyone else.

On an island. My own little world. Again. Doing the limbo. Falling to the ground. Failing as a person. Again and again and again.

I feel generations older. The experience has come in time, though I’ve seemingly been having the wrong ones. Still.

Behind The Scenes...

(The following post mentions the idea of murder. Please keep your own mental health in mind and proceed with caution)

Newcrest to Glimmerbrooke call, multiple times

New Moon Palace, Newcrest, 6:45pm

Emma: Please pick up, please pick up.

Imperial Palace, Glimmerbrooke, 8:45pm

*phone ringing*

Jonas: Emma?

*answers phone*

Emma: Uncle Jo, I’m so scared, please, please you have to help me.

Jonas: Woah, woah, slow down. What’s wrong?

Emma: They’re going to kill me!

Jonas: What? Who’s going to kill you?

Emma: The King and Queen. They said they were going to kill me!

Jonas: You mean Stefano and Justine?

Emma: Yes! Please help!

Jonas: Slow down, Emma, and tell me exactly what happened so I can tell the Empress.

Emma: They were talking in the sitting room, I was walking past on my way to the kitchen. The King- Stefano- was yelling about something, and I didn’t want him to storm out of the room, see me there, and take it out on me, so I hid behind one of the doors. They were talking about Grandfather, about how he got captured by the Empress. Stefano was really mad. Is that true?

Jonas: Yes, it’s true. We have him in custody here. What happened next?

Emma: Stefano was talking about using me to trade for Dami if you guys find him first-

Jonas: Find him?

Emma: They sent him away to train with the Windenburg military, nobody knows where he is, now that Windenburg has fallen.

Jonas: Okay… keep going.

Emma: Then Justine said I would be a worthless hostage and they should just kill me.

Jonas: Is that exactly what they said?

Emma: She said “get rid of her, people die all the time.”

Jonas: Oh…

Emma: I’m going to die. They’re going to kill me, oh my god!

Jonas: Emma, calm down. I’m going to call an emergency council meeting and get them to agree to invade Newcrest. I need you to do everything you can to avoid them until we get there. Lock your door, tell that servant who got you this phone to sneak you food and water, and do not antagonize them in any way.

Emma: (shakily) Okay…

Jonas: We’re gonna get you out of there, I promise. No one is going to hurt you.

Emma: Please hurry, Uncle Jo.

Jonas: I’m getting up and summoning the council right now, okay? We’ll be there soon.

Emma: Okay…

Jonas: Stay safe, love you, Bug.

Emma: I’ll try, love you, Uncle Jo.

13 Reasons to Tickle Part 3

    Justin hops up from his seat in glee, Zach and Jeff look on dumbstruck, and he wonders if he made the right play. Justin rips his other sock off and tickles his foot as he does it too. The dull nails on his newly bared flesh is murder and he almost kicks the bastard in the face...saying it was an accident would only be a partial lie, as he wonders about the wisdom of his decision.

    “Oh, man Jensen you’re fucking done! Seriously how are you so ticklish!”

    “Your feet are the same.”

    He gives Zach a dirty look and sticks his tongue out but Clay can feel the confidence rolling off him and he springs what he hopes is his trap.

    “Wait, Justin.”

    The other boy smirks at him, “Too bad Clay, you lost and now you’re going to pay!”

    He needs this worded right to convince Justin but he thinks he has it as he says, “Give me one more chance.”

    “Nope.” Justin chuckles as he says it and doesn't sound as mean as before, more excited, like a kid on Christmas or something.

    “I can make it worthwhile.”

    All three perk up and Justin frowns, “How?”

    He takes a deep breath and launches into the first part of his plan, “ I reset the timer and we go one last round with all the same rules but we go double or nothing, winner takes all and loser loses all. The winner keeps his prize but the loser takes Jeff’s place and gets gang tickled, for ten minutes instead of five.”

    Justin laughs, “What are you like, looking to make it worse on yourself?”

    Aware all of them are watching to see what he’ll do next, Clay replies,“Are you saying no to a chance for more revenge? Sounds like your scared. Is that it, the great Justin Foley scared of getting his little boy feet tickled?”

    Justin turns bright red and huffs, “You’re going down again Jensen and then your fucking done!”

    That was easy enough. They get back into position and Clay starts the timer feeling butterflies and knowing now he has to win. He goes about ten seconds like he has before, concentrating only on the soft feet under his hands but once that’s up he starts in with what he hopes is his key to winning...either that or he’s screwed and never going to live it down!

    “This must be torture for you Foley. Sitting there, taking all this tickling and knowing despite how tough you are, you’re going to lose and get a huge tickling.”

    “FuHAHAuCKYohOhoHOU!”

    “I guess it just means you’re not nearly as tough as you think you are, as everyone else thinks you are. All that basketball hasn’t toughened up your feet up at all, they’re even still in socks and getting demolished!”

    “IHEhEHAhEhEhAHeKIhEHAhAhahaHAllYoHoHOHO!”

    “Must be embarrassing knowing that no matter how much shit you talk, all someone would have to do is get your sneaker off and you’d be totally helpless. I bet they could get you to beg for just about anything!”

    “AhAhAHAAHASSHoHOHoHAhoLL!”

    “Is that the purpose for the big ass sneakers? Keeping these tender tootsies well protected so no one can tickle you into agreeing to something embarrassing?”

    “JEHEhEHEASeHEN!”

    “Well I’m sure whatever you would agree too isn’t as embarrassing as this, stuck there getting wrecked by me, knowing you’re going to lose, cause you will, I promise you that, and knowing it’s totally your fault for having such boyish feet.”

    Justin’s reply is too incomprehensible to even make out and his feet are squirming everywhere and not escaping at all.

    “After all, these feet are only getting more sensitive as I keep tickling them aren’t they? You can’t hold out much longer either can you?”

    He’d better not cause Clay checks his timer and he’d down to a minute left so he launches a full blitz on the toes scratching under them and between them and even on the tops of them. 

    “We could play this little piggy at this point and you’d be begging me to stop! I didn’t know a set of toes could be so ticklish! Just imagine what’ll happen to them when they’re bare after you lose this and totally at my mercy while you’re also getting tickled by these two? I mean what-”

    “CuHAhAHAhTIhEhEHEHiTOhoHOuT!” 

    Clay does immediately and smirks at the other boy as he stops the timer. The room is silent for a second until Clay speaks, “And the big, tough Justin Foley loses after all. Alright you two, get back here.”

    Jeff seems all too eager as his feet rejoin Justin’s on the table while his hand ruffles the boy’s hair, “Don’t feel too bad, Clay’s gotten pretty good at this.”

    Zach reluctantly joined them and he gets a chance to look at two pairs of bare feet. Jeff’s are as beautiful as always, the tan tops contrast with the pinkish bottoms, long toes that his fingers, nose, and tongue, fit between perfectly and Clay’s long since memorized every wrinkle on them and knows exactly which ones line up with his most ticklish parts.

    Zach’s are different. Color wise his tops are also tan, a different shade from Jeff’s but still tan. The bottoms though are cream colored and if he didn’t hate Zach so much, he might even admit they were kind of charming, handsome even. The toes are long too but the feet are much wider and longer too.

    He leaves Justin’s socks on and looks at the boy pointedly who is frowning at his own feet with a strange expression. Half of it is surprise like he can’t figure out how he lost but the other half almost seems like he’s mentally accusing them of betraying him. In either case Clay is just happy the asshole is about to get what he deserves.

    He has them put their feet out again, starts the timer, puts all six feet in a headlock and digs into them hard. It astounds him how strange it feels under his fingers, the difference between the soft, smooth skin of the bare feet to fuzzy cotton covering Justin’s feet is somehow thrilling. He learns which feet are Zach’s as opposed to Jeff’s without looking based on feeling of the sole. Both are soft and smooth but Jeff’s are muscular under the skin, he can feel the power of them while Zach’s have a doughy consistency to them, a lot more give when he pushes the skin in and it’s almost springy with how it bounces back.

    The trio howl with laughter as they squirm, none of them really trying to get away which is good because the occasional tugs towards them nearly break his grip a few times. It’s almost cute how they bump against each other during the tickling. Justin is sandwiched between the taller boys and with all of them squirming as they are it leads to them leaning sometimes in different directions, sometimes all in the same and sometimes with both Jeff and Zach leaning over, or on top of, Justin.

    He doesn’t tease them but he doesn't need to. Intermittent with the gales of laughter are pleas from Jeff and Zach for him to stop. Justin doesn’t say anything, but he laughs a lot.

    Clay is almost disappointed when the timer goes off but it’s not like this is all over.

    The trio on the couch slide down panting in exhaustion for a while. He lets them rest because Jeff needs the break too but his patience only lasts until Jeff sits up ready to go. 

    “Alright Justin, time to face the music, lay on the floor.” He thinks maybe he sounds a bit too eager but so what? He won and deserves to claim his prize.

    “The floor?” 

    “Well we can’t all tickle him if he’s sitting like this? I’m claiming his feet so you two have to divide his upper body up between you.”

    Zach rubs the back of his neck as he rises to stand and says, “That’s alright I don’t need to get in on this.”

    “Yes you do, Justin lost and the penalty was a three way gang tickling.” Clay isn’t sure why he’s so insistent except that the thought of seeing his one time bully and general asshole suffer sound like it’ll be great, “Unless you want to join him?”

    Maybe it’s mean to pit the two against each other but if it really bothers Zach he can join Justin and he and Jeff can tickle two at once. 

    Zach looks down at his big feet and wiggles his toes the looks over at Justin, then back at his feet and then opens his mouth when Justin cuts him off.

    “I lost fair and square Zach, just do what Jensen wants and lets get this over with.”

    As he says it Justin stands but it’s slow and Clay can’t tell if it’s because he’s tired or because he’s dreading what comes next, he hopes it’s the second option but suspects it’s a bit of both. In any case he moves to the other side of the table they’re feet had been on and lays down on the carpeted floor, hands above his head and legs stretched out.

    Clay moves to his feet and thinks he should deny his satisfaction in stripping off the now slightly damp cotton socks from Justin but something about this is just too perfect. Justin looks embarrassed and he enjoys that too. 

“Aww is the star of the Liberty Tigers embarrassed about his feetsies? I would be if mine were this ticklish!”

They were but he could deny that, besides having his socks taken off earlier he hadn’t been tickled so he could deny it and would if he had too.

“Fuck off Jensen.”

He ignores the comment, it lacks and bite anyway, and instead slowly pulls the other sock off and finds that despite what he expected, Justin’s feet aren’t gross. He thought he’d have overgrown toenails but they’re short and neat, he thought they’d stink but not really and despite the slight dampness of the socks, the feet themselves aren’t super sweaty. They’re also small, probably only size nines making them smaller than everyone else’s in the room by about two sizes. They’re also really soft and have a pleasant rosy color to them that Clay likes. All in all, he can’t wait to go to town on them.

Unfortunately he has to wait, since Zach and Jeff take a while to decide what they’re tickling and get into position but finally Jeff claims his armpits and Zach gets ready to tickle his ribs and belly. 

    “And we start in three, two, one, go!” The countdown wasn’t necessary but it felt good to watch Justin squirm with each number,  his toes splay open and then clench and his whole body has a nervous energy about it.

    It pales in comparison to when the tickling actually starts because Justin freaks out. He’s pretty sure there are curses in the laughter but he’s much too busy enjoying the bare skin. Even through socks, he knew they were hopelessly soft but now that he has them off he thinks he finally might have found a pair of feet nicer than Jeff’s. Maybe that was giving too much credit to them but they’re at least as nice, so smooth and soft and they have the ‘just bared’ look that’s driving him mad, it’s almost like he can tell how sensitive they are just from how they feel under his hands. 

    The toes are even better, they aren’t long like Jeff’s and Zach’s they’re sort of bubbly instead and very, very sensitive. Naturally he concentrates on them, getting his fingers under and between them and finds the webbing produced a particular squeal, though it takes him a few tests to confirm it’s this and not something Zach or Jeff is doing.

    Speaking of them, Jeff is showing no mercy to the armpits, his fingers are digging into them and alternating between hard tickling in the hallows and a softer tickling in the skin just below them. Clay thinks he tries to ease up a few times by going for Justin’s neck instead but he doesn't call the other boy on it because he doesn’t really care what they do as long as he gets his tickling. Zach is barely tickling him at all, sort of just touching his stomach and ribs and occasionally his sides but that’s enough on top of what he and Jeff are doing and to make Justin’s whole body flop about. Zach even ends up sitting on his legs to keep him still.

    Now only able to see Zach’s back, he refocuses back on the helplessly ticklish feet and continues going to town, playing with the sides and tops too and enjoying that they’re even a little ticklish. He doesn’t do much with them, just traces his fingers long them and feels the feet squirm and thrash but Justin’s being pinned down by two other boys and not going anywhere no matter what he tries. He uses this tickling partly as a fake out, lulling Justin into a false sense of security, partly to satisfy his own curiosity as to how ticklish these parts of his feet are, and mostly to marvel at how powerful the feet are. And how much it isn’t helping them.

    Of course once he gets down to only three minutes he goes back hard, silently vowing to devote a minute each of his remaining time to soles, arches, and toes. Of these three, the soles seem the least ticklish even though that isn’t saying much, and he digs into them vigorously, raking dull nails scratching the balls and heels and carefully avoiding the arches. He can’t pretend the almost violent thrashing of the feet isn’t enjoyable and he has no doubt that if it weren’t for the other teen sitting on his knees, Justin’s legs would be moving too.

Two minutes left and he shifts to the arches he’s been carefully avoiding and starts tickling them at random for a few moments and then getting more systematic. He starts from the lowest part of the arches and moves towards the highest, finding the ticklishness increasing as he does so. When he reaches the highest points, he tickles back the other way. He continues this back and forth and then suddenly changes it up again, going from bottom to top and then keeps it random to really drive Justin mad for the last few seconds.

One minute left and he moves on to the toes, intending to make the most of the precious seconds. He holds the toes back on one foot, tickling the skin underneath and then does the same to the other and wishes he could just have them back without having to use a hand to do it. He gets between the toes too, enjoying the odd sensation of the webbing between someone else’s toes. No matter how many times he gets to touch Jeff’s it’s still very weird feeling. The skin is so delicate and thin and yet, at least on Justin, might be his most ticklish spot! While he scratches at the skin, Justin's laughter reaches fever pitch on the other side of Zach’s body and he wonders if the other two are stepping their game up at the end too.

    The timer sounds and he can’t help but feel disappointed. He can’t stand Justin but damn does he have some ticklish feet and he can admit they’re really nice...just not out loud. Zach gets off of Justin and both he and Jeff stand up but Justin remains laid out on the floor, panting.

    “Fuck.” It’s all he says but it’s all he really needs to because it pretty much is about the only thing you can say after getting gang tickled by three guys because you lost a game.

    It’s more than a little awkward after that though and it doesn’t take long for them all to leave. 

    On his way home, he reflects that even now doesn’t know how he feels about the whole thing. On one hand Zach and Justin are assholes and jerks and barely count as human but on the other hand...three pairs of feet are greater than one and damn that was fun. He knows he isn’t mad at Jeff for probably orchestrating the whole thing and if given the chance he absolutely would tickle those two again but he still doesn’t like them. Maybe he doesn't have to though, maybe he can enjoy the experience of getting even with two of the school’s most popular boys.

“How long can ya last?”

A/N: Ok… but tickling should’ve been a challenge. Yes I ship Noah and Cody. (I am not proof reading allat).

⚠️: Some footer tickles

Summary: Chris thought of something that’ll make people drop like flies. One that’ll cure his ler mood, and pretty sure people are growing suspicious of it.

********

“We’re gonna have each team see how some of their players will last getting tickled…” Chris announced, cutting to the chase.

“Pfft, tickling? What does he have, some type of fetish?” Duncan scoffed, making his team laugh.

“Nope, thought it be a challenge nobody could pass. Anyways, we have… ‘Screaming Gophers’, and on that team is… Beth, Cody, Gwen, Heather, Justin, Leshawna, Noah, Lindsay, Owen, Trent, and Izzy, against ‘Killer Bass’, and on that team is… Bridgette, Courtney, DJ, Duncan, Eva, Ezekiel, Geoff, Harold, Sadie, Katie, and Tyler.” Chris was about to explain how it works before the writer thought they’re was too much typing in one dialogue, so here’s the other one, “Here’s how it works, You’re gonna choose two people on your team to get strapped up to this very convenient ‘x’ shape thing. One person get’s strapped up for an hour, while somebody from the opposing team tries to get the opposite contestant out then we’ll switch and they will have to stand an hour as well. And if the person getting tickled manages to last an hour w/o saying the safe word, which will be ‘Chris’, they win the challenge and get a reward, which is they’re very own spa treatment deluxe, but if you don’t… then you’ll meet me at the bonfire, and I’m sure you’ll know what will happen next.”

“Uh huh, uh.. Question?” Duncan raised his hand as if he was in school.

“Shoot.”

“Why is the safe word you’re name? Why can’t it be something cool like, Duncan, or murder, or vandalism.”

“A. They’re too hard to remember and B. I’m hot.”

“Ok… I have another question.”

“What…” Chris sighed.

“Why did you choose this challenge? Is there something you want to tell us?” Duncan tried to get under his skin and it didn’t work.

“Because… I just fricking explained it! You people are too good with these challenges, so I chose something that nobody in they’re right mind would pass.” Not because he had a tickle fetish, Ofc not. What kinda judge would put their contestants in a situation like this just to help their lee mood? If anyone thought Chris had a fetish, they’re wrong.

“Whatever you say….” Duncan was not buying it.

“Ok, ready? Talk over your team and see who will be their guinea pigs.” Chris stepped off his platform that was coincidentally placed on the dock.

(Meanwhile, with Screaming Gophers)

“So which two will get tickled?” Beth asked.

“I think it should be lazy dude over there.” Heather pointed to the latter before her.

“Who, Owen? Dude, I know your not very likable, but to call Owen lazy just because he doesn’t cut back on the snacks, is off the charts-“ Noah stocked up for his bestfriend, only to be shut down by Heather.

“Not him, you.”

“ME?! Why me?!” Noah was puzzled and scared, trying to change their minds, but it seems to go down stream for him.

“Well duh, isn’t it obvi? You don’t join in on any challenges, you just stick your face in that musty book. It’s about time you show team work.” Heather continued.

“What?! Come on guys, change her mind, please!”

“Sorry man, she’s right.” Owen agreed.

“Owen?! Your suppose to be my bsf!”

“I’m sorry, Noah.”

“Well… You are a big time slacker…” Beth joined in.

“YEAH! You’re always reading the book like, ‘ooohohoho~ I can read~’ and then I’m all like, ‘Dude, sub me in,’ and you’re all like, ‘Whahahat? Can’t hear you, dudette, too busy reading, yah…’ That’s basically how it goes.” Izzy chimed in.

“That’s not at all how it went! Guys please! Don’t make me do this.”

“Don’t worry, Noah, if you go, I’ll join you so you won’t be as scared anymore!” Noah’s secrete crush, Cody, replied.

As thankful as Noah is right now that Cody is trying to cheer him up, this doesn’t stop him from getting tickled.

“Awww, ain’t that cute? Your boyfriend is checking up on you!” Izzy cooed. Making the other’s but Heather coo as well.

“He’s not my boyfriend!!!”

“Alright, guess it’s settled. Noah and Cody will get tickled, and trust me Noah, if you flake out before it hit 20 minute mark, I’ll make sure the others will vote you off for being a bad team player.” Heather got close up to his face to make her more intimidating, and it worked.

“WHAT?!… omg!!” Noah gave up because it was useless fighting anymore, at least he’ll have his crush beside him, but it won’t make him less ticklish.

(Meanwhile, with Killer Bass)

“So… Who’s gonna volunteer?” Courtney asked.

“Not me!” Bridgette backed down.

“Yh… I’ll sit this one out.” DJ.

“THAT’S SO CHILDISH, COUNT ME OUT!” Eva.

“Nah, this will ruin my record.” Geoff.

“Well, it’s not gonna be-“ Duncan got interrupted by Sadie.

“I’m not doing this!” Sadie.

“If Sadie’s not doing it then I’m not doing it!” Katie.

“Uhhh…. Yh, I’m not doing this challenge.” Tyler.

No one likes Ezekiel.

“Guess it’s just Duncan and Harold.” Courtney said.

“Why?! No cool guy should get tied down and tickled for a challenge in front of an audience.” Duncan crosses his arms.

“So you rather get tied down and tickled if it wasn’t for a challenge?” Courtney smirked.

Duncan loves his girlfriend with all his heart, but sometimes she can drive him to sanity. “Wha- Absolutely not! I’ve been to juvy, my street cred would plum it if I even began to like tickling.”

“Uh-huhu.” Courtney giggled.

“So why do I have to do this? I don’t want to get tickled either.” Harold said.

“Yeah, you’re probably gonna have to clean the skid marks on your underwear after the challenge, haha.” Duncan made DJ, Geoff, and Trent laugh at his joke.

“So it’s settled then, each team members who were picked, come up so Chef can strap you guys in.” Now that Chris was saying those words, he just now realized how weird this challenge is.

The four of them complied, with Harold and Cody going first, and with Duncan tickling Cody and Noah tickling Harold.

“Your time starts when I start the timer.” Chris set an hour on his clock, and pushed start. “Go!”

And they began.

“Aww, crap, I don’t even want to do this…” Noah complained.

“DON’T THINK ABOUT IT NOAH!!! YOUR TIME IS RUNNING OUT!!” Gwen screamed from the sidelines, trying to reassure him, but it didn’t work.

Noah heard cute, bubbly laughter. It sounded as if an angle had dropped down from the sky… it was so majestic, and Noah wanted to hear it more after the challenge. He wanted to be the one to tickle his crush, but his priority isn’t the one on his team, it’s the one in front of him.

Noah decided to rip the bandaid off, and slowly skittered his blunt nails on Harold’s sides. It was so gross, but he didn’t want to be eliminated.

“Gahahahah, Thihihihis is so sthuhuhupid!!!” Cody laughed from Duncan’s skilled fingers on his knees.

“Wow, Duncan, you are skilled with this!” Courtney was astonish.

“Yeah, I would tickle my older brothers all the time.” Duncan replied, he then got flashbacks of them teaming up on him, and he shivered. Duncan will die twice before he ever tell them that he was always tickle punished as a kid by his older brothers.

Noah was flabbergasted by Cody’s laugh, that he stopped tickling Harold and looked over to his crush. Cody’s face was so cute right now, Noah wanted to die right then and there, until a familiar voice stopped him and his thoughts, “Hey, Romeo!!! Quit staring at Juliet and get to tickling, we want to win!” Leshawna called out from the sidelines.

“Stop calling me that!! I don’t even like Cody!!” Noah’s face says it all though.

“Ha! Your face is so red already, and you aren’t the one getting tickled.” Harold should’ve shut up.

“You know what? I’ll give you something to laugh about!” Noah skittered his fingers up and down Harold’s sides, stopping just barely under his armpits.

“GAHAHAHAH!!! I’M SOHOHOHORRY!!!!” Harold screamed out.

“It’s kinda too late for that one.” Noah teased and cooed the bonded lee, tickling his ribs and stomach, dipping his finger in the hollow and swirling it inside.

“Oh? U think u can out tickle me? I’ll show you who’s the real tickle monster.” If Duncan was the one in Cody’s place, his teases would’ve flustered him, but what can he say? He has experience. The Mohawk dude got dangerously close to the latter’s armpits, making Cody scream, which alerts the ler. “Oh?~ is someone ticklish hereeee?”

“No!!! NO PLEASE!!! NOT THERE!!! DUNCAN STOP, STOP, STOP-AHAHAHAHAHHA!!! PLEASE!!!” Cody went baserk, he totally lost it. His head was getting all foggy, he was getting breathy and panting, and to top it all of he was crying and his laughter grew silent. He had to gasp in between depths of chortles, trying so very hard to remember the safe word, let alone blurt it out, but he can’t manage to figure it out.

“What was that?~ I didn’t hear a safe word~. Maybe I should do this till you pass out… or… until you pee yourself, like glasses just did.” Duncan was insane, and yes Harold did piss himself due to the tickling, and Cody was on the verge of doing the same thing.

Noah didn’t notice the wet stain on Harold’s pants, he was way too focus on staring at his crush with widen eyes. Noah swear that if looks could kill, Cody would’ve been dead before the tickling killed him. He didn’t care how obvious he was being right now, he just thought that when will he ever get a chance to see Cody in this state again? All helpless and breathy, trying to say the safe word, but he couldn’t because of all the laughter he was doing. Noah swore to everything that he doesn’t like tickling…Cody is the only exception, tho. His trance was broken when Cody finally managed to say the safeword, “CHRIS!!! CHRIHIHIHIS!! STAHP NOW, PLEASE!!!”

Duncan stopped, and Chef went over to the two to unlock their tied up limbs, making them slump over to the ground in heaps of laughter. “Ok, Duncan and Noah, it’s your guys turn.” Chris said.

The both boys signed and was terrified of what’s in store for them, but they wouldn’t want to let their team down, so they got on the chair letting Chef tie them up. “Wait… can Harold change first? I don’t want him being that close to me when he smells like cats.” Noah looked down at his pants, Harold looked down as well and looked back up with a redden face, covering himself up when everyone started laughing.

He got back from changing, and got beside Noah waiting to tickle the shit out of him. Noah would’ve had so many more sarcastic things to say, but right now, he was so scared, like he doesn’t like being tickled at all, Duncan’s the same way, but he can hide it more. “You good, Noah? You’re sweating.” Harold mentioned.

“Y-yeah… I’m *gulp* fine… I just don’t like being tied down… or… t-tickled.”

Duncan noticed how nervous he was, “awwww, is someone scared of tickling?”

“Shut up!” Cody tweaked his side, making him twitch and have a startled laugh, “Listen Noah, don’t force yourself to continue if you don’t want to, ok? I know how it feels, being trapped and claustrophobic, so don’t be obligated to push yourself fowards, ok? Our team will still love how you were brave enough to do this.”

“Like heck we will, GO BIG OR GO HOME NOAH!!!” Heather yelled, getting slapped over the head by Leshawna.

“And… if our team does lose and u go home, I won’t forget you, bestie!!”

That’s right, Noah and Cody were just friends… nothing more, nothing less. It’s stupid of him to get so attached to a straight boy, so why can’t he get him out of his head?? It’s like a broken record, getting scratched over and over again. He was about to cry, but had to hold it in, so if he did cry, he could just blame it on how much it tickled. He can’t get so worked up anyways, once one of them goes home they’ll forget about the other, wether it be by elimination or by wining, no one will remember any one, they’re only there to make money, not friends. And that’s what he needs to focus more on, winning the dough. “Can we start already?”

Chris started the timer, and the boys went to work.

Cody didn’t hesitate on scribbling the life out of Duncan’s socked soles, teasing him about how ticklish they were.

Harold, on the other hand, started off lightly scratching Noah’s stomach, saying things like, “Come on Noah, u know u wanna laugh~” and it embarrasses the hell out of the other.

If it’s one thing Duncan hates, it’s getting tickled. He had older brothers he would tickle, but then they would get their revenge before he could blink. It didn’t help the fact that Duncan was so much more petite than the others. So this, this right here, would be hella embarrassing if he gave up due to a little tickling, but he was so damn ticklish, he doesn’t know how much longer he can go.

Now, Noah hates getting tickled and tickling as well, but if it’s one thing he absolutely hates, is getting tickled in front of the person he likes. His laugh is so annoying and obnoxious… and cute… but Cody don’t want to speak about that. They we’re just friends, it’s not like they loved each other… hahahe. So Noah will take it to his grave that he won’t laugh, that was… until Harold did the unthinkable.

“Come on. LAUGH FOR ME!!” He squeezed both sides of Noah, leaving a few red thumbprints on him.

“NO!!! GAHAHAHAHA!! St-Stahhahahap!!!” Noah had limited room left to squirm, so he tried to do anything that was mentally possible right there to stop the tickling, but nothing seemed to work, considering he was strapped down.

It was Cody’s turn to be fixated on his crush’s friend’s laugh. They way Noah would get all squeaky and loud, it was the best sound ever. Cody himself would think it would be weird to have a liking for someone’s laugh, but he just couldn’t help it, bro’s majestic. He was imagining him with his fingers tormenting Noah, zoning out while his fingers slowly drifted off his target’s feet, giving Duncan enough time to breathe. Until Leshawna broke his trance, “HEY!! JULIET!!! GET TO WORK!!”

He was finally brought back to reality, bringing his attention to the matter at hand. Cody wanted to get this over with, so he tickled the only most ticklish spot he knew, thanks to Courtney. Why did Courtney help him, u ask? She didn’t. Cody was just walking past his cabin, when he heard faint laughter, it was Duncan’s. “COHOHOHOURTNEY!! STAHAHAHAP!!!”

“Hahaha, it’s so funny, because your neck is so sensitive, it’s cute. Not to mention you’re extremely ticklish.”

Yes. They we’re having a tickle fight, and Duncan lost, he always does. Cody made sure to lock this core memory in his brain incase he ever needed this information. And now he does.

He shot his fingers in the crook of his neck, wriggling all ten fingers inside. “NOHOHOH!! STAHAHAP!! CHRIHIHIHIS!! PLEASE”

The timer stopped along with the two lers. Noah was having a hard time breathing, and Duncan was audibly gasping. Chef untied them both, while they slumped to the ground. Cody helped Noah up, while they locked eyes for a solid second, until they turned their heads out of embarrassment.

“I would give u guys another challenge bc it was a tie, but considering Duncan lost way too soon, I’ll give this one to the Screaming Gophers.”

Every one on their team cheered and celebrated, while everyone on the other team looked like they had sticks up their asses. “Oh, We know who we’re gonna vote off,” Courtney scowled.

“It wasn’t my fault, princess, how did he even know to tickle me there?” Courtney’s and Duncan’s arguing grew quieter the father they got from the cameras. Cody gave Noah subtle squeezes to his sides, earning him a few squeaks, Noah pledged that he would only tickle Cody back when they either get together or he gets more comfortable around him. Either way, they are a cute couple.

YES!! I’M FINALLY DONE😭

“Hahaha,

Now Noah also hates tickling, but he especially hates getting tickled infront of

[winderlylandchime]

I am here with the mans theories for s5! He did say during his presentation that it is a work in progress and it will for sure keep changing because the LA offer fucked everything up for him. Btw in case you were wondering, he ambushed me in the early morning right as I woke up. He was waiting by my door so when i opened it all i saw was him smiling at me, i swear he us losing his mind. Anyway the theories are (in no particular order): -‘IF Justin goes to LA, Brian goes with him. Or we get like a week time jump and they leave for LA together’ -‘Better yet, Justin doesn’t leave at all because i get its a big deal for his future BUT I personally hate it and my feelings matter more so…’ - ‘I don’t trust that Connor actor. What if he’s gonna be like Ethan or something? I will fucking die’ - ‘Brian will now for SURE say I love you. I’m thinking Blondie drops the la news and maybe Brian realizes how big his love is and how stupid he is so he tells him. Like maybe chases him in the airport or goes after him to LA cause thats less cringey and I know Bri would rather cut his leg off than chase someone through an airport’ - ‘So basically they move in together and Brian confesses his love for him and they live happily ever after’ - ‘ohhhh Brian is his date to the Rage premiere! That’s gonna be fun! I know he’s gonna be so proud of his sunshine’ - ‘i still want Jen and Brian being best friends episode! Like when they looked for his office but more. Also where the fuck is my girl Daphne? Imagine Daph and Bri talking shit about LA’ -‘you know what? Throw in Hunter as well. Give me uncle/nephew episode again’ - ‘okay so Brian asked him to move in. I WANT THEM DECORATING SHIT! or furniture shopping or some domestic shit like that. Or Brian comes home to bunch of art stuff everywhere! But he doesn’t get mad because he’s a big boy in love now’ - ‘i cant decide how he will tell him that he loves him. Maybe at a dinner or maybe at a diner, Blondie does something dumb and he says it while laughing or something OR what if when they’re having sex Bri goes “you know I love you, right?” Something cute like that and Blondie will be all excited like ‘oh took you long enough also likewise’’ - ‘i cant decide on the big finale. I love you cant be it since there’s others in the show too unfortunately so i guess they matter too. But it has to be something big and nice and sweet, to wrap it all up nicely with a bow, ya know? OHHH KINDA LIKE SEASON 3 FINALE! With all of them cute and happy and in love and carefree and living their best lives together and Brian and Justin are finally together happy since Bri is now a big boy in love not scared to admit it’ - ‘also what is going on with the cancer? Is it gone? Is it still there? He had that whole awakening cause of it so cancer has to still play a big role. I want more of that even tho it hurts me but I think that’s gonna really make Brian even more different in a good way.’ -‘you know what i want? Brian and Justin all happy and in love with Gus! And they bump into Brians mom HA! Show her how great he’s doing’ I’m not gonna lie, my heart kind of broke for him when he was reading me his list for what he thinks about s5. Because he was so excited when he talked about the happy ending. I’m talking big smiles and giving examples about how the ep could end with a camera looking through different windows and it’s Britin and Gus together or maybe theyre celebrating Christmas or a birthday and everyone is together all happy and Britin is kissing and it ends with Brian saying i love you to Justin. AND IT ACTUALLY PHYSICALLY HURT ME HEARING THAT AND KNOWING THE HORRIBLE TRUTH! i feel like a mother now wanting to protect her baby from the bad world. What have I done? He is going to be heartbroken the second he puts on s5.

Oh my god. Dear sweet anon, I am worried for your brother's well-being. He is making QAF into some christmas movie rom com where there's going to be a happy montage at the end and... well that's not how this is going to go. I don't know whether we warn him or whether that's unfair because none of us were warned. (No kidding, once a year my facebook memories remind me that I was VERY EXCITED to watch QAF S5.)

This is going to be a complete and utter emotional breakdown, I fear. Just remind him that it is accepted as canon (from CowLip) that the ending never meant to imply that Brian and Justin are broken up.

And that it is a good thing to care so much about something that it Makes You Feel Things. Even if those feelings at the time are Very Unpleasant. And that those Very Unpleasant Feelings build community in fandom. But, yeah, art that makes you feel... that's the whole point, isn't it? I honestly don't know that we would still have a qaf fandom to this day if the ending had been unambiguously happy.

Dresden files Grave Peril live blog

Grave Peril

Michael! Weird how he’s just now showing up in book 3

Michael is a Harry/Susan shipper

I’m with Michael. Harry should tell Susan that he loves her

Who’s Elaine? 

Not the maternity ward :(

Harry fighting a ghost is cool

Poor Agatha Hagglethorn and her daughter :(

Why does Harry think his soul is bad?

Trip to the Nevernever. Oh am I going to meet Lea?

“You’re right. Sorry. Holy shit,” I breathed “heckhounds” pg. 58 Ha 

“Long estranged godson” pg. 64 Why are they estranged?

Is it bad that I kinda want a fae godmother?

“I can’t believe we’re in jail” pg. 72 Ha 

Oh no Michael got full named. Why doesn’t Charity like Harry? She’s being really mean to Harry. 

“I’d never said them to anyone I didn’t lose” pg. 81 Well now I’m sad :(

Where’s Mister? 

Vampire time 

Not Bianca :( 

“Yeah, their saliva’s some kind of addictive narcotic” pg. 84 First Ew Second I guess that helps them when they’re attacking people. Third that’s terrifying 

Why would Bianca invite Harry? She doesn’t like him. I’m suspicious. If this is “official” business why invite Harry? He’s not a warden of the White Council.

“The safety of all invited guests is assured, by word of the assembled court.” pg. 86 Hmmm are we talking about guest rights here? I need more information about this. What counts as safety? Why just words, why not written? Invited guests so unless you have an invitation you’re in trouble? I guess Harry isn’t gate crashing. Bianca is up to something. This is definitely giving me trap vibes. Bianca is probably the reason the ghosts are acting up. As with the previous two Big Bad guys they were behind the “unrelated” problems being connected i.e.: Victor and the drugs and Denton all the murders. I doubt she’d turn him. Maybe it has something to do with Michael and his sword? 

Yay Mister is safe

Susan, why would you want to go to a party with vampires after what you’ve just seen? Please listen to Harry. He knows what he’s talking about. I know you got a career boost from the werewolves but you aren’t Lois Lane and Harry isn’t Superman he can’t save you from everything so please don’t go to the ball.

Lea stop kissing Harry. It's weird. 

I don’t think I’ve ever been smacked in the face with remembering when a book takes place than this quote “Wait until some poor sap who got AIDS from a blood transfusion breaths his last” pg. 121 I was not expecting that. Very late 90’s or early 2000’s. When do these books take place? 

“An unmarked car sat in my driveway” pg. 126 my sheer level of disappointment when I read on and realized I wasn’t getting Marcone was immeasurable  

“Rudy’s clean cut good looks” pg. 126 Bi Harry 7

No, not the birds :( 

Rudouph is the worst 

Poor Micky :( The barbwire curse is scary

Murph is so cool with The Sight

Bob being scared is worrying 

“What could possibly go wrong?” pg. 172 Harry why would you say that?

“And then droplets of her spittle fell onto my throat, my cheek, and into my mouth” pg. 183 oh no I’ve never been more happy that Harry destroyed a building

Why would Bicana send two of her maybe powerful red court buddies (subordinates?) to find Lydia? Maybe Lydia knows too much? Maybe Lydia is one of Bicana girls? 

“I’d learned to block out pain, when necessary. Studying under Justin, it had been a practical necessity.” pg. 188 Not a big fan of Justin 

Scary dream

Oh no it ate Harry’s magic

Oh no it disguised itself as Harry 

Oh no Murph 

Oh no Charity 

What pact did Harry make with Lea? How is Harry going to get out of this new pact with Lea? 

How am I only 48% of the way through? So much has happened? And we still haven’t gotten to the ball

Oh no the baby is coming 

Oh no Lea has Amoracchius

Harry’s mom got him a fae godmother? Harry’s mom makes some weird allies 

How are they going to fight Nightmare and get Amoracchius  back?

Michael, Harry’s a little busy can you have Susan leave a message

“It’s thine heart” pg. 278 Ha

It’s party time 

“Hell’s bells, I noticed how good he looked” pg. 290 Bi Harry 8

Thomas! Yay! 

Wait wait did Harry just talk about how good his brother looks?!? 

“Not just a vampire,” I said, “a cheesy vampire.” pg. 297 Ha 

Bianca’s dress is a fire hazard 

All this talk of hospitality makes me think that’s how the vampire-white council war started. Someone broke hospitality. Why are you drinking the wine Harry? It could be spiked? You don’t know what’s in it or where it’s been. It could be roofied. “The wine is poisoned” pg. 308 Aaaahhh!!!! This is bad. Oh no it’s the venom 

Harry please listen to Micheal and Thomas and leave the party

“We’re here to get information, not bring the house down on a bunch of nasties” pg. 313 but Harry your really good bringing the house down

Dragons are a thing in this universe? Cool! Michael killed a dragon, cool!

“Harry, you're not the biggest kid on the block. You’ve got to learn to be a little more polite” pg. 318 Ha like that will ever happen 

SUSAN WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!?!? You didn’t get an invitation…You forged an invitation.

SUSAN YOU NEED TO LEAVE 

Oh no 

No Susan you can’t protect yourself here

Did Lea just try to bargain for Molly? Oh no Lea made Susan forget Harry

Who’s Mavra? Well you don’t need to call Mavra an it. That was rude.

No Susan, you didn’t know the risks before coming to this party. Susan, Harry and Michael aren’t chauvinist pigs they’re trying to help 

Vampire wizard?!? That is cool but bad for Harry 

Gift giving time

So the vampires want a sort of false flag operation? Maybe not a false flag but pressure Harry to attack.

“Lords of the Outer Night” pg. 354 that’s important not sure what it is but with those capital letters that’s important 

How is it Harry’s fault that you (Bianca) killed Rachel?

“Here lies Harry Dresden, he died doing the right thing” That’s a very accurate epitaph. Bianca knows Harry well enough to know that. That’s some villain vibes to gift someone a tombstone 

They draw weapons and the vampires immediately start attacking it’s like they’re trying to start a war. 

Oh no Justine 

Thomas don’t listen to Bianca. THOMAS why would you do that to Susan?!? Oh no Bicana didn’t keep up her end of the deal who would have thought 

Time to burn some vampires. That’s a lot of fire. Bicana isn’t the fire hazard it’s Harry 

Here comes Harry guilt complex 

Lydia what’s up? Nightmare in disguise? Possessed? I’m with Harry, Thomas needs to back off from Lydia 

I like this mushroom plan 

Does everyone know Harry’s mom but Harry? The demon knew her and now Lea 

“The handsome vampire” pg. 440 Bi Harry 9

I think you should all stick together. Oh no Harry’s surrounded 

Why is Bicana naked?

Why are they taking Harry’s clothes off? 

NO NO NO don’t like the end of chapter thirty-three

NOPE NOPE NOPE don’t like the beginning of thirty-four 

I’m crying :( Poor Harry, I don't like the implications. Can someone anyone please help Harry he needs help

Poor Justine, where are her clothes?

“I heard them taking you. Playing with you, for two hours maybe” pg. 453 I really don’t like those implications. 

Rachel ghost to the rescue…or not 

Kravos go away 

Oh no Susan got half turned. Yay Harry told Susan that he loved her! 

The ghost fight was cool!

Why would the Reds want to start a war with the White Council?

The ghosts fighting is cool!

Awww they named their child after Harry! :)

“What goes around comes around. And sometimes you get what’s coming around. He paused for a moment, frowning faintly, pursuing his lips. “And sometimes you are what’s coming around. You see what I mean” pg. 506 Does that mean that Harry is the consequences for the monster? 

“I don’t want you far away marry me” pg. 510 awww Harry asked Susan to marry her 

“And they were always the same: darkness, trapped, with vampires all around me, laughing their hissing laughter. I’d wake up, screaming and crying.” pg. 511 Poor Harry I’m sobbing 

Well I guess the White Council is at war with the Red Court now. 

Final thoughts 

I wished I had Marcone in this book. I need my Marcone fix. Glad I got to meet Michael. Charity needs to calm down. The Red Court vampires are terrifying. I’m upset that I was right about the party being a trap and Bicana. I’m upset that Susan got turned. More Bi Harry the counter is up to 9. Murph looked so cool with The Sight like a guardian angel! Not a fan of Justin. I want to know more about Lea. I hope I get to see more Thomas. Does he know that Harry’s his brother? Is he just messing with Harry? Why would he do that to Susan? I love Harry’s costume. Bianca had it coming. I kinda love Bianca’s gift to Harry. I don’t know if I’m reading too much into the implications but I don’t like them at all. I’ll probably make a whole separate comment about it because I have a lot of thoughts and feelings about it. Harry has a bit of a guilt complex/chronic hero syndrome. Now about this war. As vampires they’ve probably been around for a while so they know about the White Council. Why would they pick a fight with them? They must think they can win against them so they must have had a plan like this in the making for a while. I assume the White Council will try and make peace, maybe throw Harry under the bus as a way to appease the Reds and get rid of their (Council’s) black sheep. I need to know more. Susan went a bit too far in her investigative reporting and it came back to bite her. She’s only half turned so I assume she has some powers but not all and has some weaknesses but not to the extent of a full Red Vampire. I’m sad Harry and Susan broke up but I know she’ll come back and have Maggie. I thought the fights were good and I liked the world building. I’m looking forward to a more central storyline/plot with the war. It'll be different from the sort of monster of the week that I got from the first two books. Despite my several “oh no’s” I did enjoy this book and I’m looking forward to reading the next one.

Gaslit

Gaslighting, a new term really in the last 10 years,

but we really did believe back then that was fat .

and she wasn’t at all if anything she was like, normal way this is why most Millennials eating, absolutely hounded her, they said that Chris angel , Mirror and she sack the fat as a joke. which obviously wasn’t funny people like the normal news channels were just absolutely loved to annihilate Britney 2007 .

And even when she was in her conservatorship, we know it got even worse , this amazing woman , and girl when she first came out gave her us her whole career , music her interviews is she was lovely ,

has all faded , and it’s so sad to see a lot of her fans don’t even believe it’s her anymore and it’s a clone because she doesn’t have the same teeth or anything , and  the shape of her mouth is , her smile is definitely not that light in her eyes anymore, which is really sad ,

thank God she’s out of it now but for some reason I think there’s something still really odd going on with her, always these new stories either saying that she’s on drugs, being hit by someone or she hit, just want to make her look crazy I’m scared the next story will be the end,

Just like they did with people like Aaron Carter,  and a few people I can’t remember their names of Isaac Cappy who tried to expose things who was a small TV actor, tried to say that Tom Hanks was a paedophile, moved to Greece because of the age consent of. So I listen to the psychic SLOAN BELLA Who, left home at 14, became a teenage runaway with drugs, homeless people , pimps , gigolo prostitutes you name it she met them , sold her own body. I believe and her body and went from a very young age,

she knows the debauchery of Hollywood, and psychically channels dead celebrities, and she’s been spot on, even energetically done it with celebrities who are still alive, the readings have been really, even trend on TikTok.

Another one I feel he’s Justin Bieber, who’s was just a baby, and now has his own baby I don’t think he’s well enough to even., he has got a wife and, man’s it’s a man’s world

, a completely different story like it was Britney losing her kids, herself and refusing to give the baby back because she was postnatal and of course she didn’t want to give her child back to some loser Kevin Federline , kfed

got through wow Blake fielder civil , honestly honestly it was a different times to live and when I see young YouTuber or young TikTok is talk, think why are you in that time because I was only 17 and I was born in 1990, obviously had a massive effect on all of us, so I know effect on people, because we were used to seeing old Brittany, with a six pack and toned every inch and then had the cheek to call her fat when she was just, self what I loved about Brittany as well is that she didn’t care when her hair was falling out like her extensions and stuff, she actually white trash with her T-shirts, that she just was herself for all of that, and for exposing the way these people treated her was amazing because , husband what I find really weird it’s so many celebrities got married in 2021,think JLO and Ben, BRITNEY and Sam, and Ariana and that Dalton guy, and then suddenly they’re getting divorces and falling for other men besides BRITNEY but do we really look into Muhammad Al Turkey?
