Meeting Someone New
This is a CovenTK fic! Thanks to @covenofwives for letting me write about their character!
Lee! GeorgeHD, Lers! DreamXD and CovenTK
Warnings: XD has four arms, TK has lots of eyes ✨SFW tickle fic✨
For the sake of the fic and not boring everyone to death we’ll say this takes place after Coven’s first Lee! HD - Ler! XD fic. CovenTK and GeorgeHD are friends but XD and 4K are not aware of TK’s existence (presumably because they kinda rule the overworld together and TK doesn’t talk much)
Enjoy!!
~~~~~
It was an everyday Tuesday when DreamXD decided he’d pay the god of the overworld, GeorgeHD, another visit. Since his last one he’d thought nonstop about how HD laughed and squirmed while XD tickled him silly. It was a wonderful discovery that brought the two closer together, and XD couldn’t wait to do it again.
As he drew closer and the scenery around him began to change to the dreamy, cloudy landscape that the smaller god resided in, XD noticed something peculiar. Usually when he visited, he’d have to wake up HD from sleeping. The world around him would reflect that of a cloudy starry night sky, dark blue sprinkled with flecks of stars and wisps of clouds all around him.
Today however, the sky was a bright blue. This meant that HD was wide awake, which was odd for the deity who normally slept uninterrupted between XD’s visits. The only reason he would ever be this awake was if XD himself was visiting. But he’d just got here.
As XD finally approached the center of the cloudy landscape his gaze landed on the starry-haired god, sat up on his nest-like bed of blankets and pillows rambling to another figure in front of him.
The person had purple hair and a cloak made of feathers of the same color draped around their frame, hiding their body. The cloak was covered in unblinking red eyes that stared in every direction— XD swore he saw a few stare in his direction. On the entity’s face was a metal mask and five red eyes identical to those on their wings (there were two eyes on each of their feathered ears as well). Upon their head sat a gold beaded crown with two spiked horns.
All together the figure was a peculiar sight, and made XD stop in his tracks. He was spotted instantly by the entity however, their neck turning sharply to face toward XD and stare him down. Being locked under their gaze sent shivers down XD’s spine.
“Oh, XD. Hey,” HD greeted nonchalantly.
“Who is this,” XD asked, blatantly ignoring the older God’s welcome.
“This is CovenTK, they’re the god of the moon and mobs of the overworld. We worked together a lot when I was more involved with it.”
CovenTK’s cloak opened up and they raised a dark clawed hand to wave at the blonde god. XD immediately took note of the two very large red eyes on the inside of what he realized wasn’t a cloak, but wings. He waved back hesitantly.
“Can they talk…?” XD inquired, approaching the two to sit criss-cross on the cloud-cushioned ground next to HD’s bed. Up close XD saw that Coven TK was a good bit smaller than he was, but also considerably bigger than HD.
“They can, they choose not to because they can’t with their mask on.” TK nodded to seemingly agree with HD’s explanation.
“I see,” the end god said before they fell into awkward silence. He cleared his throat a moment later and spoke up. “So what does TK stand for?”
HD’s face lit up in a sunrise blush as he looked away. TK’s lower set of eyes squinted upwards as if they were smiling under their mask, and their wings opened again. They raised their hands and wiggled their thick clawed fingers once. XD immediately lit up.
“Really??” He nearly exclaimed. TK nodded happily.
“W-We don’t have to talk about this right now—“ HD piped in, the stutter in his voice was impossible to miss and it lit a mischievous fire within XD.
“Oh but I’d love to learn more about CovenTK! And I’m sure they’d be happy to demonstrate, right~?” XD teased. TK donned an equally mischievous glint in their many eyes and they repositioned onto their knees.
“N-No!! No wait, this is really unnecessar—eheheHEHE—! XD NOHO!!” The starry haired deity shrieked when XD scooped him up into his lap, crossing his legs over the smaller god’s and using his four arms to hold HD’s above his head (the upper arms holding the wrists and lower holding his biceps).
“T-T KAHAHAY—! Nohohoho— hehehe, gehehet awahahahay frohom mehehehe—!” HD screamed and wiggled the little he could as the purple winged god crawled closer and straddled HD’s knees.
“Go for his sides TK, they’re the worst~” XD growled into the smaller god’s ear, causing the ladder to scrunch up with a small snort.
TK obliged and their clawed fingers immediately started to scratch at HD’s sides, right in the middle first thing. This had HD wailing within seconds.
“NOHOHOHO PLEHEHEHEASE!!! TEHEHEE KAHAHAY NOHOHOHOT THEHEHEHERE!!” He cackled helplessly, tears already pooling at the corners of his eyes.
“Move to his tummy now, we don’t want to kill him,” XD instructed, feeling bad for the smaller god as he watched TK’s blunt claws torment his sides. XD felt butterflies fill his belly at the thought of those claws scribbling his own sides.
TK obeyed and moved his hands to tickle HD’s belly, the older melting into squeaky giggles. “Nohohohoho plehehehehease….”
“Does it tickle HD~? Does it tickle so bad?” XD teased meanly. Before the starry haired god could answer properly a squeal tore from his throat and he once again fell into hysterical laughter.
Startled by the intense reaction, XD looked down to see what TK was doing that caused such a noise to be pulled from his friend’s mouth. The purple haired deity was softly running the tips of their wings all over HD’s sides, which was causing the small god to absolutely lose his mind. XD shivered again.
“Ooh, feather sensitive are we~?” XD taunted.
“PLEHEHEHEHEASE!! NOHOHO MOHOHORE!!! IHIHIHI CAHAHAHAHAN’T TAHAHAHAKE IHIHIT—!!” HD begged as the first tears rolled down his colorful face.
In an instant the tickling stopped and XD dropped HD’s arms. He used his lower set of hands to soothe over HD’s torso as the small deity calmed down. TK simply sat back and cocooned themself in their wings again, patiently waiting for HD to recover.
“You okay?” XD finally asked, raking one of his upper hands through HD’s wild hair.
“Yeheheah, thahat wahas the wohohorst thohough…” he giggled residually.
CovenTK suddenly stood and signaled with the point of their finger that they were leaving.
“It was nice meeting you TK. I hope we meet again soon,” XD said with a fanged smile fist visible under his mask.
TK nodded simply and in a single hop they took to the sky, their giant eyes on the underside of their wings staring at the ground below as they flew away.
“Now what?” XD asked after a minute of watching the peculiar god fly off.
“Now we nap,” HD responded simply, pulling the larger to lay on the nest of blankets. XD chuckled fondly and hugged HD tightly, allowing himself to drift into a light slumber.

lee!georgehd, ler!dreamxd, 2.4k words
enjoy!
--
“H. Stop.” XD spoke quietly, running a hand through their hair before dropping it onto the pillow next to their head. HD felt a smile tug at the corners of his mouth and he bit his bottom lip, taking a slow breath to calm down the butterflies in his tummy before continuing to relax against the couch. XD relaxed as well, letting out a content sigh as he let his eyes slip closed once again.
The quiet environment lasted all of ten seconds, before the taller God felt another harsh poke to the side of his stomach. His breath caught in his throat, and he let out a strained exhale through his nose, managing to keep his cool once more.
“HD. Stop it,” He warned again, keeping his eyes closed but hearing HD shuffle from the other end of the couch.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” HD replied, but his voice shook with poorly concealed laughter.
“Right. Sure you don’t,” XD replied, a small smile sitting on his face, knowing exactly what would happen next.
And, sure enough, only a few moments later, their prediction came true. Another poke, right into their side, above their hip this time.
“HD,” XD said firmly, his voice booming slightly, playing it up to make his point more clear.
“W-what?” HD’s voice was still trembling, but this time it didn’t sound like laughter to XD. They could tell HD was growing more nervous with every passing moment.
“If you keep doing that, you’re going to regret it.”
“I don’t even know what you’re talking about! I’m- I’m not even doing anything!” HD defended, a few stray giggles making their way into his words, telling XD that he did, in fact, know exactly what they were talking about.
XD knew damn well that HD was trying to be sneaky with his words. Both Gods were aware of what HD was aiming for in that instance. He wanted tickles. He had never been good at asking for them, he always went about getting them in other ways, always provoking– tickling XD or 4K first in hopes of retaliation, taking their things, instigating a playful fight, anything he could think of to get the others to tickle him without having to actually ask the others to tickle him.
Technically, HD was telling the truth- he wasn’t doing anything at all. It was his invisible helper hands delivering the pokes, sent out through the power of HD’s own mind alone, making it impossible to predict them or to call HD out on his provoking.
So, he didn’t. He waited, patiently, for the next poke to come so he could truly catch HD off guard.
And sure enough, less than five minutes later, there was an invisible hand attacking their tummy, and XD knew it was the perfect opportunity to flip the switch and give HD exactly what he wanted.
Not without having a little fun himself, though.
The second he felt the hand touch him, the faux-scratching of nails on his skin, spreading in and out in a circle right in the center of his tummy, he struck. He threw himself forward, launching himself into a sitting position and then up onto his knees to loom over HD. HD jumped and screamed at the sudden movement, comprehending what was about to happen approximately three seconds too late, once XD was already grabbing his ankles and pulling him to be flat against the couch with their bottom set of arms.
“NO–” The smaller of the Gods yelled out, fighting back as well as he could, but he knew his squirming and protesting were no match for XD. They were taller than him by a little over a foot, and no matter how strong HD liked to believe he was, there was no way he could overpower them. They also had four arms, which didn’t help, and which HD thought was completely and utterly unfair. This fact was only solidified in his brain when XD clambered on top of him, settling on top of his thighs just above his knees, using their top set of arms to wrangle HD’s wrists and pin them against the couch on either side of his head, rendering him completely helpless. And they still had a completely free pair of arms to do whatever they wanted with. “XD, DON’T! X- XD, plehease, you- you don’t have to do thihis-“
“I haven’t even done anything yet, H,” XD began, a smile spreading across their face from where their mouth showed beneath their mask, revealing their sharp white teeth and subtle dimples. HD dropped his mouth open to speak, but nothing more than a small sound from the back of his throat escaped, making XD smile wider. “You don’t even know what I’m going to do.”
“I doho!” HD replied, much whinier than he expected to sound, his fingers curling up into fists and as he messed with his own fingers to expel his nervous energy.
“You do, do you?”
“Yehehes!”
“How do you know, exactly?” XD asked, and HD clammed up again, long enough for XD to continue. “Maybe because you were instigating it by tickling me first?”
“WH- I was not! I didn’t even do anythihihing!” HD stood by his lie, swallowing around his nervous giggles and squirming his hips as XD tilted his head at him.
“No, you’re right, you weren’t. It was your little helper hands, wasn’t it?” They observed, not giving HD time to respond before continuing. “Your helper hands, which… weirdly enough… are nowhere to be found right now?” They pointed out, and HD’s breath hitched, his squirming increasing tenfold at the words, at being called out, at being read so easily. “Isn’t that strange, HD? I have you pinned, completely at my mercy, and your helper hands aren’t even trying to get you free. What’s that about, huh?”
“Ehehex– XD-eheheheeeee…” HD whined, squeezing his eyes shut, even behind the dark, wide-rimmed goggles he wore that covered them. He tilted his head back and to the side, hiding in the cushions as much as he could manage, the blush on his cheeks bright enough that XD thought he might be developing a fever.
“What’s wrong, tiny?” XD teased, knowing how much the nickname flustered the smaller God, how nervous and excited it made him. “Did something happen?” XD chuckled as the other let out another groan, squirming once again and turning his head to the side, closing his eyes.
“Ugh, X…” HD whined, shifting his back against the couch below him and trying– very unenthusiastically– to twist his wrists out of XD’s hold. He tried this for all of ten seconds, before his arms went limp again, essentially allowing XD to keep them pinned down. He let out a soft whimper, not knowing what XD wanted from him, taking in a breath and sighing it out, nervous giggles making their return. “Just… c’mohon.”
XD decided to be slightly merciful, ending HD’s suffering and finally moving forward, giving him what he actually wanted out of all this. They curled their bottom set of hands around HD’s sides, their fingers pressed into the back of his sides and their thumbs resting just under his ribs, swiping gently over the flowy fabric of his robes. They felt HD tense under their touch, sucking in his stomach and letting out high pitched, nervous giggles, his eyes squeezed shut. XD giggled along with him, already excited for his next move.
“You’re so cute, HD,” They mused, and suddenly dug their fingers into the backs of HD’s sides, making him arch his back with a loud squeal, and using their thumbs to scratch lightly at the front of them at the same time.
“AH– ahahaha, Ehehehex Dehehehe! Nahahaha–!” HD broke out into loud, happy laughter, his squirming kicking up involuntary as his whole body attempted to throw XD off.
“Say you’re sorry,” XD said calmly, though he spoke slightly louder than usual so HD could hear him over his own laughter.
“Ihihi– I’m sohohorryhyhy!” HD obeyed easily, having lived through this exact scenario with XD enough times to know that wasn’t what would make him stop. He would keep tickling until he could tell HD had reached his limit, or until HD specifically asked him to stop, both of which usually happened within a few moments of each other. At this point, HD would usually be pretty well behaved, happy enough that he’d gotten what he wanted, and feeling safe enough with XD to know they wouldn’t push him too far. In all honesty, XD cherished that more than anything, knowing that HD felt comfortable enough with them to let himself completely enjoy the tickling without a care in the world.
Although, the actual ‘wrecking HD until he’s bright red and teary and pleading a little bit’ kept him going just as much as the sappy thoughts did, in true honesty.
“Good,” XD praised, making HD roll his eyes through his laughter and tilt his head back into the pillow again. XD shifted their hands up, now cupped around HD’s narrow, boney ribcage, tugging his robes up ever so slightly with their movements and exposing a tiny sliver of HD’s pale stomach.
“Oh, nohoho, Ehehex Dehehee!” He watched the smaller God suck in his stomach at the touch of cool air that hit his skin, puffing his chest out and biting his lip before falling into more breathy laughter. XD giggled at his reactions, slipping his hands back down to hook his thumbs under HD’s robes entirely, pulling them the rest of the way up when he returned to his previous spot. He gently pressed his thumbs into his ribs, warning HD of his presence, making him whine and squirm as much as he could in his completely trapped position. “Noho, dohohon’t! Dohon’t, plehehease–” HD attempted to plead, but was cut off when all ten of XD’s fingers dug right into his ribs, vibrating between the bones. “NAHAHAHA– EHEHEX!”
“Say you want the tickles,” XD instructed, and HD was already shaking his head the second they finished.
“NOHOHO?” HD denied immediately, curling his hands into fists and attempting to pull at his trapped wrists, although the pulls were very weak, and XD could tell it wasn’t from lack of stamina just yet. XD smiled again, their sharp teeth and dimples making a reappearance, suddenly coming up with a new idea. He switched from drilling harshly against the bones of HD’s ribs to swirling and digging in circles with his thumbs and first two fingers, hoping to keep his laughter up but not deplete his resilience too quickly.
“Admit you want the tickles, or I’m gonna bite your tummy,” XD threatened, scrunching up their nose to flash their teeth even more when HD looked up at them with wide eyes.
“WHAHAT?! N-Nohoho! Noho, no, nononohoho!” HD continued to deny, shaking his head and squeezing his eyes shut once again. “Ahabsolutelyhyhy nohohohot! Yohou wohohon’t!”
“Alright, suit yourself,” XD said, leaning down to hover his face over HD’s wide open tummy, making the smaller God squirm wildly, attempting once again to throw XD off, with a bit more urgency this time.
“NOHO– noho, nononono– nahaha!” HD pleaded, his laughter kicking up again at the anticipation, even though nothing more was happening yet.
“I’m not hearing what I asked for,” XD moved down the tiniest bit further, enough that HD could feel their breath on his skin, letting out a squeal as he finally broke.
“OKAY, okahahay! Okahay, I wahant them! Ihihi want them, I wahahant thehem, I want thehehehem, plehehease dohohon’t do ihihit!” HD rambled, shaking his head and sucking in his tummy, squirming his hips as much as he could, genuinely trying to pull on his arms now. He knew how badly nibbles affected HD, so much so that even the threat was enough to make him lose his mind, even if the actual nibbling never happened.
He knew HD well enough to tell that the squirming was genuine, and decided he would only push a liiiiittle bit more before letting HD relax again.
“There we go, H. Good job,” They praised once more, dropping down to nibble, just twice, right below the tiny dip in the middle of his tummy, along the bottom edge. HD squealed, flinching harshly, his entire body jolting to the side as he fell into helpless laughter that continued even after XD pulled away.
“AH– nohohoho, Ehehex Dehehehe!” HD whined, and XD broke out into sympathetic laughter at how winded the other God sounded.
“Awww, HD,” XD cooed teasingly, using their bottom set of arms to pull HD’s robes back down and smooth out the fabric, while their top set let go of HD’s wrists and pulled back. They let one hand stay up to run through his hair, left one to rest flat on his tummy, and the others reached out to grab his hands and hold them gently, rubbing their thumbs along the backs of his knuckles. “You okay?”
“Mhm,” HD hummed with a nod, a sleepy smile still on his face as he closed his eyes and relaxed back into the pillows under him with a sigh.
“You liked that?”
“…mhm,” His reply was hesitant, clearly embarrassed to say so, but agreeing nonetheless.
“Good, H. I'm glad.” The room fell silent for a moment, the atmosphere calm, before HD spoke again, voice slightly raspy and words slow from sleepiness.
“X?”
“Yeah, tiny?”
“Can we take a nap now?” XD’s heart fluttered at the request, and they smiled again.
“Of course we can!”
“And then you’ll let me get you back when we wake up?”
“Yeah, okay, that–“ XD paused, registering what the other was saying, his heart dropping instead now, feeling HD tighten the grip he had on their hands. “What?”
“You will. You’ll let me get you back when we wake up.”
“HD, I don’t–“
“Please?” HD asked sweetly, looking up at the other God, knowing how weak XD was to him when he acted sweet like that. XD sighed, letting himself lay down next to HD and pull him in to cuddle with, making him giggle softly and wrap himself around their torso. All four of their arms came to wrap around HD, holding him close, keeping him safe, before he finally let out his response.
“I suppose maybe I could allow that,” They agreed, and HD giggled happily once again, before they settled into the couch, into each other, and slowly drifted off to sleep.

The Gods' Cycle of Revenge
Just another prompt I was supposed to do a drabble of but got carried away and made a whole fic anyways 🫠. It was just too good of a scenario to pass up wrecking XD + HD, especially when it's 4K doing the wrecking. Thank you again for the prompt @sleepy--anon! (you can find the ask here!)
8 - “Don’t you dare” / 16 - “anywhere but there” / 18 - “oh come on, it doesn’t tk that bad” 
(switch!XD + HD / ler!4K : 1.6K words)
“You’re squealing like a pig, HD.”
¨Shuhuhut up, you’re a pihihig, XD!”
¨Both of you shut up, you’re messing up my flow!” 
XD laughed at the Nether God’s command, letting out a chuckle as the smaller God squealed before bursting out into the maniacal laughter he was in just moments ago. XD turned slightly towards the pair, watching as HD struggled beneath 4K, the scene almost comical when they compared the size difference between the two. 
4K had decided that HD had made one too many sassy remarks and needed to be reprimanded for it. HD’s punishment? Being tickled relentlessly. His claws were scratching up the smaller God’s sides, pressing in at random intervals where he was most sensitive to keep him laughing. HD was kicking and pounding his fists against 4K’s shoulders, but the bigger deity remained unphased; the elder was simply too weak to even slow him down.
“4K- nahahaha plehease!” HD whined through his laughter as his sides were continuously squeezed, claws sometimes migrating down to HD’s hip bones to make him cry out and squirm even harder. XD had to admit, it did look quite ticklish, especially when 4K pulled up the smaller God’s robes and nibbled at his sides. But HD was definitely overreacting. There was no way anything felt that intense. 
¨Oh come on, it doesn’t tickle that bad, HD.¨ XD shook their head slightly, adjusting their mask while turning away from them and back towards the clouds that expanded to the horizon line. The God sat and admired the colors of bright pinks and oranges, head tilting slightly when after only a few seconds the colors began changing into a deeper pink and a bit of light purple. It was only then that XD realized that HD wasn’t laughing anymore. In fact, he couldn’t hear anything anymore.
It had gone completely silent.
XD turned around in confusion, pushing their mask up slightly to call out for the two but let out a shriek instead when a huge figure tackled them, sending both XD and the offending attacker to the ground. They heard a deep chuckle from the weight settling on top of their body, rolling their eyes when they realized it was 4K. 
“Get off me! W-What are you doing?!” 
“Just showing you what it’s like to be on the receiving end for once,” XD looked up past 4K and saw HD looking down at them, a smug grin on his face at XD’s current predicament. “How’s it feel?” 
“Well don't ask yet! I haven’t even started playing with their spots!” 4K purred, laughing when XD reached up to pull their mask down as far as it would go out of embarrassment at the comment. 
The Nether God looked up at HD, wiggling his eyebrows before he turned his attention back to the four-armed God. He gave no time for XD to react before skittering his nails up and down XD’s tummy, scratching with enough pressure for them to feel it through the thick cloth of their robes. 
“Stohohop! 4K, stop stohop!” XD was squirming, pulling at 4K’s wrists with one set of hands while the other set grabbed at 4K’s biceps. HD saw that XD was actually starting to make progress in their escape and decided that 4K might need a little help. Suddenly a “poof!” sounded through the air, XD somehow hearing it over their own loud giggles and immediately turning their attention towards HD. 
XD knew that noise. 
“Don’t you dahahare!” 
“Oops.” The smallest God was laughing as his helper hands appeared around XD and 4K, four of them spawning and grabbing onto XD’s wrists. The hands gently pulled XD’s arms down to their sides, attempting to hold them against the puffy clouds below them but still finding it difficult. 
“Might need a little more help than that, HD,” 4K mumbled as his fingers explored XD’s sides, causing them to kick slightly and yank more at their arms. “Actually, I’m definitely gonna need more help for what I’m about to do.”
“Wahahait, whahat are you- NOHOHO! No! No, please!” HD and 4K laughed as they watched XD put up the biggest struggle of their life. 4K had started wiggling his fingers teasingly over the sensitive underarms of the God under him, both of them breaking out into cackles when 4K faked XD out a few times just to make them squeal. 
“What happened to ‘it can’t tickle that bad’, huh? Not so tough now, are you, big guy?” HD giggled as he leaned down onto his knees next to XD as four additional helper hands spawned, those now moving to push XD’s elbows down to the ground as well. Once the helper hands successfully had the four squirmy arms in their grip, they slowly moved to drag them further out, making XD’s arms more stretched out to the sides, and unfortunately making their underarms more open and vulnerable as well. This made XD break out into frantic giggles, shaking their head as they looked up at 4K.
“Nohoho! No plehease, anywhere but there! Anywhere!” XD was begging, and they hated that they were, but there was no other escape route. There were no more cards to play. There was only begging, and praying to some God (hopefully 4K and/or HD) would have some mercy on them. But chills were suddenly spreading through their whole body when 4K’s smirk only grew wider, glancing at HD with a chuckle before he turned back towards XD. 
“Anywhere but there? Hm…you do actually make a compelling argument.” 4K sat back onto his heels, still straddling XD’s hips but moving his hands from hovering over the underside of their bottom set of arms. He tapped his finger to his chin as if contemplating what he should do next.
“I…I do?” 
“No idiot, get wrecked!” HD proclaimed through a fit of giggles, watching as 4K suddenly sprang forward and spidered his nails under XD’s bottom arms. They were screaming, hysterical laughter spilling into the air as they thrashed from side to side in their best attempt to throw 4K off balance to knock him off.
“You know XD, I think your upper set of arms is jealous,” XD could barely hear HD tease, but heard enough that they knew the deity was up to no good. “I think they need some attention, don’t you?” 
“Wh- HD, NOHO! NAHAHAHA!” The deity was wailing now, having two sets of wiggling fingers under all of their arms, scratching with precision at the middle of the sensitive spot to make the God howl. Even as XD pulled with all their strength, HD’s helper hands were much too strong for them to even dream of escaping, too aware of how pathetic their struggling would look. 
“You know, I think you can handle one other thing I’ve been dying to try on you, XD.” 4K commented nonchalantly, the lack of care for XD’s current predicament sending the God reeling from the way the pair was acting like this was some everyday activity. 
XD’s laughter jumped an octave when suddenly 4K took his left hand and pulled up their robe, a huge smile breaking through as XD visibly struggled harder. A second later there were raspberries being spread across their tummy, the pale skin beneath 4K’s lips turning bright pink from embarrassment. 
“NAHAHA! N-NOHOT AT THE SAHAHAME TIHIHIME!” XD was kicking harder, the clouds around their boots moving with the wind from his thrashing. 
“Yes at the same time!” HD giggled, watching as 4K returned his skittering fingers under their arm again before he leaned back down, blowing the biggest raspberry on XD’s lower tummy. But as soon as 4K started nibbling on their tummy with his fangs, XD’s booming laughter fell into silent cackles, their head thrown back and mask almost falling off to the side.
4K noticed this and slowly stopped the tickles, HD following suit and reaching forward to situate the God’s mask. XD sat up slowly when 4K rolled off of him and pressed himself close into XD’s side, laying next to them in the clouds. 
“Well….that was fun. Tickling is tiring.” 4K chuckled as he slipped his arms behind his head and shut his eyes, feeling tiredness in his eyes from all the playful fighting. 
Suddenly 4K felt a weight on his waist, startling him and cashing his eyes to open quickly, only to find himself looking at a mask that was much too close to his face. 4K heard a little giggle and turned his head to the right, where HD was sitting next to XD, much like how he was previously with XD.
“G-Guys….we should rest! I bet you’re both exhausted!” HD scoffed at 4K’s remark, turning towards XD and grinning when he saw the matching smirk beneath the deity’s mask. 
“Not a chance.”
4K’s laughter rang out as fingers dug into his ribs, no further protests coming from him as the two took him apart piece by piece. The sky turned a bright orange once more, with streaks of reds and yellows all throughout. It resembled a fire, fitting for who was currently the victim of a thorough wrecking.
After a while, when all was said and done, the sky slowly returned to its calming hues of pale blues and purples, signaling the end of the gods' cycle of revenge.

Brotherly Love
Reblog first, like after
day 2 - ribs: prompts found here
George loved HD's cloud bed but it always made him sleepy. He had playfully whined his brother about not being as affectionate towards him as 4K was to Sapnap when they made a move to push him off their lap. George was quite comfortable, laying his head on his brother's lap, almost falling asleep before he felt a hand practically playing piano on his ribs.
"HDEHEHEHE!"
"Take it back! Apologize!" HD spoke loudly but George could hear that they weren't actually mad at him, though those thoughts disappeared quickly when their other hand squeezed his other set when he turned on his back.
"I'M SOHOHOHORRY!! IHIHIHIHI TAHAHAHAKE IHIHIHIHIT BAHAHACK!!" George cackled, squirming his way up until his torso was in HD's lap. His head shook wildly, hair tossing every which way yet he never shoved his brother away.
"Do you love your big brother more than your in law~?"
"YOHOHOU'RE THEHEHE BEHEHEHEST BROHOHOHOTHER!! IHIHIHIHI PROHOHOHOMISE!!!" HD slowed to a stop, melting at how George pushed himself up with what little strength he had left and curled himself into their chest.
"That's better..." They whispered, holding him close, gently rocking, petting through his messy hair.
"I do love you more, but he can't know that, he might actually kill me."
"I... can't promise he won't be able to get it out of me. I'm not willing to take that to the grave little brother."
"I can live with him finding out through interrogation, just don't tell him."

What’s the “29. prison Dream” WIP?
from this post
it’s such an exciting one i love it. i adore how it’s written but i just haven’t been able to get the vibe right since
🦙🦙🦙…
Dream gasped sharply when two white hands floated up into his peripheral vision, pinching at the edge of his shielding mask.
“No!!” He yelped.
“Are they just ticklish to touch in general?” The deity spoke behind him, flinching away from the mortal’s apparent protest. Their fingers twitched with uncertainty and annoyance, before returning back to remove the mask entirely. Dream watched in dismay as it dropped to the ground with a clatter, shooting desperate eyes over to XD again.
XD returned the look with a chuckle, bearing a few of his teeth into a smirk.
“No. he’s just expecting it. You’d be giggling too if you knew it were coming.”

Lovee
2 - Ground Rules
HD and 4K need to work out some ground rules between them for this new life together. And HD has to experience his first tickling session.
Tumblr media
Had to finish off last minute things to get this out. Namely the updated art for the blog. But with that done now the next chapters should come a lot smoother, just a matter of finishing art for them.
As always, please enjoy.
Tumblr media
HD had woken up early morning, as far as they could guess. The opening to the sky above showed gray clouds but it hadn’t rained yet. Birds were out singing in the distance, slowly drawing HD from their dreamless sleep. They weren’t one to usually lounge in bed but today they felt like he needed it. Today was a lot.
The events of yesterday were clear in their mind the moment they woke up. They remembered everything. The deal, the agreements, the...tickling.
HD’s face flushed again and he buried it into a pillow by his head. It wasn’t so much the tickling he was embarrassed by but the moments after. When he was so soft and meek and let himself be so easily carried to bed. He wouldn’t be able to shake that one off for a while.
But while his thoughts swam in the embarrassed he also took the time to take in everything.
Overall, his plan had worked and that was something to be thankful for. It would be an adjustment to be the tickle toy – as the demon so crudely put it – to 4K but it was a sacrifice he could make.
Now the question was...where was the demon?
HD knew the deal wasn’t broken, so he had no need to worry but he was...curious. He didn’t really know what 4K did outside of kidnapping people. There was no good time to ask last night if he had any hobbies.
Or maybe he was just lurking somewhere in the cave, waiting to pounce HD down and tickle him silly.
No. He couldn’t think like that. That would just make him paranoid. With a wakening shake, HD pushed himself to sit up. Seemingly just at the right time as 4K came up the slope.
“Oh good! You’re awake!”
The demon was all smiles again as he came towards the edge of the stone bed. He wore simpler clothes today; a long black robe over duller red top and loose black trousers. His hair was pulled back into a more managed ponytail, but it was still flicking out wildly at the sides.
“I wasn’t sure how long you’d sleep for. Didn’t wanna wake you but I made breakfast if you want it. Just some eggs and fish, nothing fancy.”
“You...cook?”
Somehow that was that should have been the last thing to focus on, but HD somehow latched onto the fact. It was something personal about 4K apart from his love for tickling. It was new.
“Of course! You think I survive on herbs and berries?”
Not with those muscles. HD thought, thankfully keeping it in his mind.
“You want the breakfast, or not?” 4K asked, almost sounding annoyed.
The pang of hunger was slowly gnawing at HD’s stomach though he had tried to ignore it. Gratefully he accepted with a, “Yes. Please…” and 4K lead HD back down to the cave.
While still shadowed the cave had a different feel in the dim light of morning. It was less ominous. The rocks weren’t so jagged or misleading. 4K took HD down the walk way on the right and went into the first small cavern. It was a kitchen room, or at least trying it’s best to imitate a kitchen room. There was an old wooden table in the centre of the room, an off-white cloth thrown over it in an attempt to hide the stains and scratches. The chairs were in just a bit better condition but neither were the same type of wood to match the table. A small campfire lay off to the side, currently cooking a line of fish that hung from their skewers.
There were plates on the table – once again mismatched – with cooked eggs on top.
4K tended to the fire and fish while HD eyed over the furniture and eggs with suspicious. “Where did you get the table and chairs?” He asked. “And the eggs.” He added, noting he had not seen or heard a single chicken.
4K gave an almost smug smile. “Human stuff. They leave it lying around.”
He knew what the answer would be, and yet it still didn’t make it any better. “We made a deal. You wouldn’t harass the humans.”
“No. I said I wouldn’t harm humans, so long as they didn’t harm me first. And, since our little deal is still in tact, seems your terms and conditions don’t consider stealing as harmful.”
He knew the deal hadn’t been broken, and yet HD still reached out to his heart just to check. Still there, the knot in his heart that bound him to 4K.
“I… Can feel that.” 4K’s voice wavered slightly as he took the skewer from the fire.
“You can?” HD asked, genuinely surprised. “When I… Just there?”
“Yes. Like a little tug on my heart. Or...maybe like a squeeze.”
That was a new feature. Though perhaps not. HD had never kept deals long enough to know really, the transaction was done or broken in the same day. He’d have to keep aware of it.
“And even though it’s none of your business. I didn’t steal the furniture.” 4K said matter-of-factly while he divided the fish between them. “I think this cave used to be used for smuggling or...something. When I got here there were no humans but a they left a bunch of stuff.”
“And the crates out front? Were they left here?”
HD knew they weren’t. 4K knew HD knew they weren’t but it didn’t stop his smug smile. “Maybe. Anyway, enough of that.” He sat on one of the chairs and motioned to the other. “Sit and eat. We have a few things to discuss.”
HD raised one eyebrow, but he moved over to the chair opposite. “Discuss what?” He asked as he sat down.
4K was already eating, tearing into the fish with his fangs as he spoke. “We need to lay some ground rules.” He spoke between mouthfulls.
“Those should have been set last night, when the deal was made.” HD said, somewhat annoyed. There was a spoon laid by the plate of eggs that HD picked up after making sure it was clean.
“These aren’t deal breakers, relax.” 4K quickly assured. “It’s like...house rules. Boundaries. Since we are going to be with each other for eternity we should make this as smooth as possible.”
That made more sense that HD could agree to that. “Okay…” He slowly nodded. “What are they?”
“You’re going to need a safeword.” 4K said instantly.
HD blinked. “A...what?”
“A safeword. Something you can remember easily so you can use when you want sessions to end or…”
“I know what a safeword is.” HD quickly corrected. “I mean like...why would you want me to have that? I thought the whole idea was I was for...that.”
4K’s lips curled into an almost scowl and a flash of what looked like hurt passed over his eyes. “I’m a demon. Not a monster.”
A sweep of guilt overcame HD. “I-I didn’t mean it that way.”
“It’s fine.” 4K shrugged. “It’s natural to assume.”
But it wasn’t fine. A deep pit of shame swelled in HD. He knew the sting of people assuming. Even as he helped humans he saw the way they whispered about him or gave his wary looks. No matter what he did he’d always just be a fae creature to them. No matter how many people he helped, it wouldn’t be enough.
“I… I am sorry for assuming. I didn’t mean it to come out that way.” HD apologised. “I just meant that since I agreed to the deal, that would be consent for...all that.”
“Well I...do appreciate it.” 4K sounded almost surprised the apology was genuine. HD wondered how. “But consent today doesn’t count to tomorrow. You still need a safeword.”
HD paused his eating to think. A flurry of words came to mind, but only one stuck out. “Clouds? Would that work?”
“Yes, that should be fine.” 4K said after thinking for a second. “It’s short so you can say it quickly and it will be easy to remember.” He looked over at HD, his eyes growing serious. Or as serious as 4K could look. “You use that whenever you need. If you want the tickling to stop, or even if you just don’t want me to touch you for the day. I won’t ask questions.”
This didn’t feel like the same demon HD talked to last night. This didn’t feel like the demon the morals told him stories off.
“Were you this kind to the others you’d tickle?”
4K paused mid eating. His dumbfounded look quickly melted to a grin as he looked over to HD.
“Is that your question for the session?”
It took a moment to click what 4K meant, and HD’s confused expression changed to a blush. “N-No!” HD quickly flustered. He couldn’t waste his question on that. “That doesn’t-!”
“Relax, Starlight!” 4K couldn’t help but laugh. “I’m teasing you. No. I was not this nice to the others.” He lifted one of his fish back up, which was already torn apart with only the tail left. “Though, I didn’t have any others for long. But you I have for life.”
Another question popped into HD’s head and he had to bite his lips to stop himself from blurting it out without thinking again. “Can I ask another question? That doesn’t count to...the session.”
4K paused eating again to look at HD. His eyes flicking back and forth over the dae like he was thinking, before he spoke. “If I can ask you one?”
“Okay…” HD said unsurely.
“Since you want your questions before the tickling to be saved, that’s means they’re specific, right? What will your specific questions about?”
There was no use lying, though that was HD’s first response. 4K would figure it out anyway when the time came to ask him. “Demons…” HD mumbled, though 4K’s ears twitched to hear him. “I have some about you but...demons mostly.” He admitted.
4K gave a dangerous smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes. “Seems I was right to make sure you couldn’t bring anything to hurt me.”
“I’m not going to hurt you…” HD tried to assure but even he didn’t believe his own voice. It was a demon he was dealing with. A demon that seemed to only be tickling his victims than doing something worse, but it was a demon non the less.
“Sure.” 4K’s voice was distant and his focus was back onto his food. “What’s your question?”
“What was the longest time you’ve kept a human?”
4K gave a shrug. “I think a couple days.”
HD blinked. That couldn’t be right. Some of the victims reported being kept for a week. The maximum was ten days. Was 4K lying? Why would he need to? Then that could only mean the humans were but...why?
“You think so loudly.” 4K suddenly said, pulling HD from his thoughts.
“The… In town. Humans are claiming you’ve kept them for a week. Sometimes longer.”
4K blinked now. His eyebrows shot up to his hairline as he huffed. “Well they’re lying.”
HD was careful not to sound accusing, but he had a feeling it would be taken that way no matter what. “There are a few who said it’s been multiple days.”
“Then a few are lying.” 4K quickly retorted. “I only kept the townsfolk less than a day. The ones I kept for a couple were bandits but never longer than that.”
HD didn’t know if demon lied as often as fae, but he believed 4K. Something about his shock seemed real and he knew humans were no strangers to lying either.
His paused must have came off wrong to 4K as his lips twisted to an almost snarl. “Suppose because I’m a demon, I’m lying about that.”
“No.” HD spoke calmly. “I believe you.”
The fight left 4K then, though he kept his guard up and eyed HD warily. “You believe the demon so easily?”
“We are going to be together for life, as you said.” HD pointed out. “Best we make it as smooth as possible.”
That was something 4K could agree to. He hummed, partly in agreement and partly in thought. He was already distracted, looking off into the distance before looking back to HD again. “We have a few more things to discuss, but that should be after we eat. I have to show you around the place.”
HD had picked at his food though the conversation but now the pang of hunger came again and he quickly ate. It tasted a lot nicer than he thought it would, though he kept that thought to himself. He made note that 4K was a surprisingly good cook.
The first part of the tour had 4K lead HD further down the tunnel. It wasn’t far from the kitchen and the cavern was just a bit bigger but it was decorated more cosy, and HD realised it was a bedroom.
“This will be your space.” 4K explained while he vaguely motioned to the room. “You can change and decorate it how you like, this was just so you had a bed.”
Despite it still being a cave, the room was actually cosy. There was a small indent in the ground, where furs and some pillows were set up like a bed. A dim lantern hung from the ceiling but there was a small clump of light blue crystals growing from the wall beside the bed. They gave off a dim glow which HD was fascinated with.
“They dim and glow at random periods. Or maybe they have a pattern and I’ve never seen it. I’ve not been in here much to know.” 4K explained.
“How many caverns does this cave have?” HD asked curiously while he felt over the furs on the bed. They were invitingly soft.
“A lot. A lot I’ve not gone into much. Some are deep into the mountain. Nothing but bats down there.” 4K shrugged then half turned in the doorway towards the hall. “Come on. Let’s go outside.”
The mention of outside was enough to pull HD away from the furs and quickly follow after 4K. They had not realised how much they longed to be under the open sky again. Caves were fine for shelter against the cold, but nothing would compare to the freeing open air.
The clouds were still overcast, but the day was warm and the air was cooling. As they slipped passed the waterfall and out into the open glade, HD gave a soft sigh. The tension in his shoulders melted away. It helped the demon also happed to live on such a beautiful mountain.
“The mountain is your home now as well. You can roam around it freely.” 4K carried on explaining. He walked slowly around the pond and HD joined him. “You are not bound to it, leave and return as you like, though I would advise from bringing anyone here or letting them follow you back. Humans don’t usually react favourably to demons and I’d hate to have to defend myself against your companion.”
“I won’t bring anyone here.” HD quickly promised, surprised 4K even allowed him that freedom. “I won’t leave the mountain.”
The demon hummed, sounded half interested and half disbelieving. “No? No friends to visit?” 4K asked. “Family?”
“No.” HD quickly replied, and spoke again to not draw attention to it. “I just need my one week in the month. For the rest of the time I’ll be here.”
“Yes.” 4K’s tone shifted, less quizzical and more serious. “While you bring that up, we should discuss that. You’ll need to choose your week. Unless you want it to be different each month.”
HD was relieved for the conversation shift. “Well, I actually have a proposal for that.” He started, and quickly added. “Which I don’t think you’ll like.”
“Okay? Well you’ve been very convincing before. Let’s hear it.”
It was an idea HD thought of in the morning, when his mind was trying to distract him from thinking about anything other than the tickling last night. And though it would be a hard sell to 4K, it made sense over all. “I propose that I take the week off at the end of the month. And then, the week off at the start of the next month.”
As predicted, 4K looked wary to the suggestion but he wasn’t outright refusing it. Instead he asked, clarifying. “So, you want two weeks essentially.”
“Technically yes. But, it would still be just one week each month.” HD reasoned. “And it will solve the issue of me returning on time. I can finish up what I need to do in two weeks easily.”
HD expected questions, or arguing, or even just the slightest disagreement, but 4K looked convinced right away. He hummed again, with his hands on his hips before nodding. “Yes. That would be fine.”
“Really?” HD asked, shocked.
“Yes.” 4K nodded again then looked to the fae. “While being without someone to tickle for two weeks will absolutely suck, just means when you get back, I have a full six weeks to take out aaaaaall that pent up energy.”
4K grinned and HD could feel the heat rise up through his chest, across his neck and settle over his cheeks as usual. He had no time to retort, or even hide his face before 4K stepped towards him and suddenly the demon was towering over him.
“Speaking of,” his voice went soft and he tapped one of his claws against HD’s nose. “You better get a question ready. Because you’re absolutely getting tickled today.”
Even if he hid his face, HD was sure he was absolutely glowing by now. His whole body felt warm, not at all helped by 4K grinning wider, clearly noticing the effect it had on him.
Trying to regain some control, HD cleared his throat. “What’s your...plan...exactly?” He asked.
“Is that your roundabout way to ask, how I’m going to tickle you?” 4K was straight forward and blunt. Especially when it came to tickling. That was something HD had to get used to. He was here for that reason after all. “Nothing too fancy for your first time.” 4K explained while he backed off from HD. “I figure we could start of with old fashion wrestling. I’ll even make it worth it. If you manage to pin me down, I won’t tickle you.”
That was an interesting proposal. People underestimated HD for his looks but he could handle himself. He was strong. He had a chance. Though as he looked at 4K, with his height and muscles tightening under his clothes, his chance seemed slim. But a slim chance was still a chance.
4K stepped around HD, heading back to the cave and HD quickly spoke up. “Can – Can we do it out here?” His voice was squeakier, spoken in a panic and 4K stopped suddenly. Blinking back at HD in surprise.
“You want to be tickled now?”
Shit.
4K grinned again. “I was gonna give you time. I’m not opposed to going now though.”
Part of HD wished he’d said nothing, then he could prepare himself. But another part of him convinced himself this was best. Getting the tickling out of the way for the day would make HD less on edge and he could know what to expect next time. Yes, by the time 4K turned back to face him, he had convinced himself this was the best outcome.
“What’s your question then?”
HD had a whole list of questions he had ready to ask, but all of them seemed a jumble of words when faced with the prospect of being tickled just minutes later. They tried focusing and calming his thoughts. They’d have more chances to ask more questions, so it made sense to get this one out of the way.
“Do you get energy from tickling?”
The question was a surprise to 4K as his eyes widened just slightly. But surprise was replaced with amusement. He gave a quick laugh, but it wasn’t unkind. “If you’re asking if I do this because I need to, no. I don’t get any benefits from tickling.”
It was an answer but it muddled up the plan HD had in their mind. “So-So you just...tickle? But why?”
“Ah!” 4K tapped his finger against HD’s lips. “That’s two questions. Unless you’re up for a double tickling session today.”
HD’s cheeks quickly went red. “N-No!”
“Thought not. Then you have your answer and you can save your next question.”
It wasn’t the answer HD expected but it was one of the most burning ones out the way. The disappointment of the answer was quickly overshadowed by the knowledge that he was about to let himself be tickled.
“H-How do…?” While HD could tell himself this was for the best to get it out of the way, his voice still betrayed him and gave away his nerves so easily.
“How do we start?” 4K finished for him and chuckled. “We’ll get to that. Just want to go over some things.” His voice went serious again and while it had put HD on edge at the beginning of the day, now it gave him comfort. “You have your safeword now, and you can use it any time. Do you remember it?” HD nodded to the question. “Say it.”
“Clouds.”
“Good. Any time you’re uncomfortable or even just unsure, you use it.”
HD nodded again, this time more confident in the motion.
“Alright. Then we start.”
HD opened his mouth to ask exactly how, but all that came out was a surprised squeak and the world turned on it’s side. His back hit to the soft grass and HD only had a moment in his daze before realising 4K was on top of him, then survival kicked in.
4K didn’t have a good hold on him yet so HD quickly scrambled away. He pushed off 4K’s shoulders, almost slipping away until a hand grabbed around his leg.
“You’re a slippery one!” 4K was laughing and pulled HD up.
His first instinct was to resist, but after a split second thought, HD instead moved with the momentum. 4K was unprepared, over pulling enough to roll himself ever so slightly. HD took that chance, rolling himself out from under 4K and managing to perch over the demon’s back.
It was not a pin at all. HD barely got his legs on either side of 4K’s waist and his arms were still free.
He just needed to pin him somehow. If he could get at 4K’s arms for just a moment he could win. HD convinced himself he could.
However, while he was trying hard to think of how to pin those arms, he wasn’t paying attention to those arms. In one quick motion the hand reached back, grabbing onto HD’s thigh and squeezing.
“GACK!”
The tickly shockwave through HD’s body was enough to jolt them off 4K’s back. They rolled just slightly on their side and before realising their mistake but it was already too late.
It took less than a second for 4K to roll over. He scooped HD up into his arms, pulling the fae’s back against his chest. One arm wrapped around HD’s shoulders, pulling him tight against the demon. 4K’s legs wrapped around HD’s, pulling them tight together.
He could still move his arms just barely, but HD was stuck.
“W-Wahait!”
“Far more slippery than you look.” 4K purred against HD’s ear. His chest rumbled against HD’s back and HD wasn’t sure if he was just too sensitive, or if it was from nerves, but it felt like it tickled along his back.
“Hold-Hold on!” HD begged, grasping at the arm around his shoulders. He hadn’t even considered the fact that 4K had two arms until it rose up, placed high above HD in a claw form. Like an animal poised to strike.
“W-Wa-Wait! Wahait! W-Wahait!”
His pleas fell on deaf ears as the hand struck. HD tried to flinch, but he wasn’t allowed. His body was stretched out, open and vulnerable for 4K to pluck and play with. And play he did.
The hand came to HD’s hip. 4K had wrapped his arm around HD’s waist, so he was holding HD extra tightly as he tickled and kneaded the hip on HD’s right side.
HD didn’t even know if his hips were ticklish, but now he could absolutely confirm they were. He shrieked at first as the tickly shocks ran through him, but it was from the surprise of it. His tensed up nerves suddenly felt alive, struggling in 4K’s arms for release.
“EheheHEHEHEHE! T-Tickles! Ihihit tickles!”
“Oh? Does it tickle?” 4K’s voice sounded surprised, even selling it with a small gasp. “Oh I’m so sorry. What about here?”
The hand moved up, positioning right over HD’s stomach digging his tickling fingers in once again. The shriek wasn’t as loud this time but the laugh was deeper. 4K’s fingers found a spot just beside HD’s hip. Like a direct button into his nerves HD laughed, sputtering out confused whines and pleads. He knew he was ticklish. He never knew how ticklish he was.
“OHOH PLEHEHEEASE! IT TIHIHICKLES IT TICKLES TH-THEEEERE!”
“It tickles again?” 4K’s voice had dropped his surprise. His voice was warm, rumbling like a growl almost. “Well aren’t you just a tickly little thing.”
“G-GOHODS! ST-STOHOP STOP!”
“Not a chance.”
There was no stopping the tickling hand, even as HD’s hands tried to bat and pry at it. His strength he was so confident in was gone.
In a blessing, 4K stopped tickling over his tummy. HD was given just a moments of giggly rest before 4K’s hand came back, this time squeezing and tickling up his sides.
HD howled. He was sure he was begging for his life at that moment, but all the words were lost on him. He only had some semblance of self when the tickling travelled up to his ribs. It still tickled, but it was more a soft drumming against his nerves than the shocks again and again.
“What a spot to find!” 4K voice practically trilled with his glee. His tail whipped under him. “I thought you were about to lose your mind there!”
It already felt like he had lost his mind, but there was some small thread of conscious thought working with HD to free him. 4K’s arms were immovable but he still had a chance.
4K’s legs were strong around HD’s, but with HD struggling and wiggling he could feel just a little give. Enough that in that moment he pulled his leg free. He kicked it off 4K’s legs, enough to get his other leg free as well, but before he could plan any more for his freedom, 4K quickly acted.
He rolled himself and HD so now HD was laying on his front on the ground. The grass tickled at HD’s nose, disorienting him for a moment as 4K moved him. The demon was no longer lying on top of him, but sitting on his lower back. Both of HD’s wrists were grabbed, easily, in one of 4K’s hands and pinned to the ground above his head.
Struggling was pointless yet HD still tried. He could move his legs at least but that was no use. He couldn’t kick high enough to get to 4K, and he couldn’t get any grip onto the grass to even try push himself up. Even then it wouldn’t matter. 4K’s weight wasn’t going to budge.
“You almost got out there.” 4K taunted. His finger just pressed ever so slightly on HD’s back through his top. HD squeaked, already giggling even though the touch wouldn’t normally be so ticklish. A worrying realisation hit HD that he couldn’t see. He couldn’t see where the next tickle was going to hit.
“Please! Please...d-dohon’t!”
“Don’t what?” 4K asked casually as he walked his fingers up HD’s spine.
It tickled so madly. It wasn’t intense, like the tickling on his sides, but more like an itch he just couldn’t get too. It felt worse in that moment, but HD had a feeling that opinion was about to change when 4K chose his next target for his attack.
“T-Tickle me! D-Dohon’t tihihickle me! Please!” HD pleaded, uncaring how high pitched his voice squeaked. He tried to turn his head just enough to look back at 4K, but that was a worse mistake.
The black mane of hair had untangled itself from the hair tie. It fell around the demon like a curtain. It shadowed them both from the dim light of the clouded over sun, but that just meant his orange eyes glowed so brightly and made his grin more maddening. Those orange eyes were just watching his own fingers, slowly crawl up, further and further up HD’s spine. When 4K’s eyes just flicked up to HD’s face, HD quickly looked away. He only hoped his hair was hiding his blush.
“Are you ticklish?” 4K asked.
“Y-Yeesss…”
“How ticklish?”
“V-Vehery!”
“So very ticklish.” 4K said it like he was confirming. His fingers stopped their slow walk between HD’s shoulder blades and instead he drew a lazy circle around and around HD’s back. “A ticklish little thing like you couldn’t handle being tickled over and over.”
“N-No!”
HD didn’t know where it was going or if he should have even been agreeing with 4K, but his mind was in a jumbled mess, wanting to do anything to get out of the situation. His skin wouldn’t stop tingling knowing the tickling was coming. Knowing at any moment those fingers would be attacking his sides, or his armpits, or his ribs. And he had no way of knowing.
“Yet you came to me willingly.” 4K’s voice purred again. “You practically walked into my arms and made a deal to be tickled. Again and again.”
That wasn’t something HD could agree with...or deny. Because it technically was true and yet hearing it being said still sent a shiver through him.
“And I think to myself ‘why’.” 4K carried on. “Why has this gorgeous fae offered themselves up to be my tickle toy for all eternity? What do they get out of it? And the only conclusion I could come to is you want to be tickled.”
Heat flushed HD’s face again and he opened his mouth just in time for the attack. The fingers tracing shapes on HD’s back now dug into his armpit. Attacking his left one first, 4K’s claws skittered into the hollows under his arms. Then quickly moved and tickled the right one, this time using the calloused pads of his finger. He moved between each pit and HD roared in laughter.
His armpits tickled furiously. He had no idea how ticklish they were. Now he was cursing the choice to wear a sleeveless top. He was cursing his skin for ever being so ticklish. And he was cursing himself for offering himself up to a mad demon, hellbent on tickling him into insanity.
“AH! AHAHAHAHAHAHA! OOHOOHOHOOH! NOT THERE NOT THERE!”
“Say you like being tickled.”
It wasn’t a request. HD shook his head, though that could just be from the tickling through his body. He was surprised that the words spouting out between his laughter weren’t deny it. They were agreeing.
“EHEEEEEHEHEHEEHE! TICKLEEEES! I-I like be-beeHEEHEHEING TICKLED!”
Another purr from 4K. This one was deeper, like a growl. His tail softly flicked on the back of HD’s leg. Tickling just ever so slightly but not enough to overtake the tickling in his armpits.
“PLEEEHEHEASE!”
“Say you like being my tickle toy.”
“IHIHIEEEE! I LIKE BEHEING YOUR TIHIHICKLE TOHOHOY!”
“And why did you make a deal?”
“BECAUSE-BECAUSE I WAHAHANT TO BEEE TICKLED!”
“And who do you want to be tickled by?”
“YOU! OHHOHOHOH! AH-AHAHAHAHA! NO! NO! IT TICKLEEEEES! IT TICKLES SOHOHO MUHUHUCH!”
His armpits were tortured for another ten minutes, though HD had lost all sense of time, space or sense. The only thing he knew was tickling. His thoughts and entire being was only being consumed by how ticklish he was, and how even despite the same spot being tickled over and over, his body wouldn’t let him get used to it.
“You alive, little star?”
4K had let go of HD’s wrists, and moved himself off the fae, yet HD was still face first into the ground as he mumbled.
“Noooo…” He winced at the sound of his own voice. It felt scratchy and dry. He couldn’t even muster up the strength to turn himself around, but he could still squeak as he felt 4K’s hands on him again.
“Alright. Let’s get you up.” 4K said as he helped turn HD over.
The thought of having to walk was dizzying, so HD was both parts pleased and embarrassed when 4K curled his arms under his shoulders and knees and hoisted HD up.
He shouldn’t have been so calm in the arms of the demon who just tickled him to the edge of his sanity. But 4K was so warm, his voice was so calming and HD couldn’t help himself from leaning his head on 4K’s shoulder.
“You get real cuddly after you’re tickled.”
That voice just moments ago was teasing HD and working up his nerves, but now he found comfort with it. It felt safe and warm and soothing. HD only hummed in response, only because he didn’t trust his voice wouldn’t squeak again.
4K began a slow walk to the cave entrance that HD couldn’t help but think was for his benefit. He tired not to focus on that fact though, and instead focus on 4K’s words as he kept talking.
“I wasn’t going to tease you so much but, well, you’re just so darn cute. Especially laughing your head off and trying to struggle away. Couldn’t help it.” He gave a breathy laugh, which rumbled in his chest slightly. HD could almost feel it against his ear. “And don’t worry about what you said in the moment. Anything said under tickle torture is through coercion and doesn’t count.”
HD didn’t want to even think about what he’d said during those moments, but the words were sadly running through his head, tied to the memory of him laughing so hard. He didn’t want to have to sort through them, deciding which of the things said were to get the tickling just to stop...and which were real.
“And you didn’t use your safeword either! I’m impressed.” 4K said while he shimmied himself and HD past the waterfall and into the cooling air of the cave. “Honestly thought I’d get you to use it for your first time.”
HD shook his head with the very little energy he could muster. “I’d die of embarrassment if I used it on my first session.”
“Ah! So you can speak. Thought I’d done a number on your voice...or maybe you’d fallen asleep.”
HD’s mood drooped slightly as he realised 4K was taking him to his own cavern room, and not to 4K’s. Of course he was grateful to be given his own space. But he really wanted to be under the open sky at that moment. He wanted to feel the sun and smell the trees as the wind blew by. But he kept his mouth shut and let himself be carried. His room was still nice and the cosy closeness just made HD curl up more.
He was lowered onto the bed nook of soft furs and he instantly melted. In a more aware sense, HD would have been ashamed to be so vulnerable in front of another but right now he couldn’t care. He needed to be soft and coddled and warm. He stretched out over the furs, feeling the tension in his limbs slowly fade before turning on his front and curling into the fur.
“I’ll be right back.” 4K said quickly. True to his word he returned not even five minutes later. He had a cup of water – which HD gratefully gulped down – and his other hand held a plate of food. Fruits to be more specific. A mix of apple and orange slices, with berries.
“Not sure what you like. I hope it’s alright.” 4K’s voice was less confident and he put down the plate beside the bed, within HD’s reach, and sat beside the bed. “I’ll need to get you stuff in you like, so you’ll need to tell me. If-If you don’t like it I can make the eggs again…”
4K rambled in a sense so unlike himself and HD realised he was nervous. “It’s fine.” HD quickly soothed him, watching the tension melt from the demon’s shoulders as he looked over to HD.
“Y-Yeah?”
“Yes. I like these.”
As though proving a point, HD took a raspberry of the plate to eat. Though while it did well to soothe 4K’s worries, he was also hungry. It was unusual to find out that tickling worked up his appetite, but he wasn’t complaining.
“That’s good.” 4K practically sighed. “But I’ll still need to get stuff for you. Food…” He gave a look down to HD, and poked his claw just slightly into his arm. “Some clothes as well. Though I certainly don’t mind you in these. Very easily accessible to your tickle spots.”
HD blushed again, quickly finishing the strawberry he was eating. “I can get myself clothes. I’ve got some in the town. And while I’m picking them up I can tell the townsfolk you won’t be an issue anymore.”
“Oh. You going to tell them the deal you made?”
It was teasing that HD should have expected by now, but his face was still lit up red. “I will tell them you won’t be an issue.” He insisted again, ignoring 4K’s laugh. “I’ll go later today.” His legs wobbled at the thought. “Mmm...maybe tomorrow.”
“I think you should rest for now. Surprised you’re still awake.” 4K’s voice went soft again, and HD felt himself melt. He tried to resist it, but it was hard when the demon also reached his hand over, slowly stroking through HD’s hair.
His claws just gently brushed against HD’s scalp and he settled further into the furs with a low hum.
“Do you need anything?” 4K’s voice whispered.
“Just this...please…” HD mumbled back, and shut his eyes. He let himself finally give in to the floaty, soft feeling in his chest, melting his cares away and finally pulling him into a comfortable nap.

The God's Realm
Warning:cursing,extremely platonic,this is a tickle fic so leave if u dont like it.
Characters:DreamXD, georgeHD,Sapnap4k, dream,george,sapnap
summary:DreamXD has trusted his brother alongside with george and sapnap that he will allow them to see his realm secretly but then gets caught by his other friends sapnap4k and georgeHD and seems like there has been a chnage of events..
"DREAM!!! COME BACK!!"george shouted for his friend to stop running from him,followed by another shout "DREAM!! COME ON STOP RUNNING!!"sapnap insisted.
While they were running they saw dream bump into DreamXD,and ofcourse they apologized and saw there was a portal infront of XD.
"XD?,what kind of portal is that?"asked while by dream as the other two tilted their heads dream following not long after.
The portal was a shiny blue color it wasnt a nether or end portal so the trio were confused XD didnt know if they could trust them enough not to tell anyone about this.
After a little while XD answered their question "its a portal to the godly realm where some of the gods go for a break".
the three were wide-eyes and XD also saw alot of amazement in their eyes,he think they are gonna ask if they can go with him so he think just in case they ask him.
And to his suspicion they did ask him so XD still thought abit more,and after a while he said yes but they need to stay close to him at all cost.
the trio were happy and smiling like little children and XD also smilled a little behind the mask of his.
When the trio settled down XD spoke up "its time to go just stay behind me,ok?"the trio nodded and hopped into the portal after XD hopped in.
All four of them in the godly realm the trio were so amazed and XD let them stay still to admire abit and then decided to move on and show them his house.
they were amazed the tree's were so fresh and green some lighting as well the sky was clear and the ground also was so pure.
"come,ill show you guys the house i live in with dream when he was small like around 5 years old"XD spoke up while he said to break their staring of amazement.
They followed XD and dream doesnt even remember this place at all like no memories or anything.
"Dream,you were here before why dont u remember?"george asked looking to dream by his side while still following XD to their house.
"I dont really know george,maybe just because i was so young i dont remember anything"dream answered george's question.
dream soon asked "sapnap,why you so quite man?"sapnap flicked his head to dream and george soon turns to also look at sapnap.
Sapnap was about to answer but they heard running footsteps from behind XD also heard it and turned around then said "boys behind me right now"XD voice was sharp.
Following XD's command they got behind then the trio gave a suprised yelp which made XD flinch and then turned to them and saw then getting lifted by some floating helper hands(?).
XD immediently recognized who they belong to "HD,put the mortals down right now." he spoke a bit strict but still calm.
the trio were confused and stil recovering by the sudden grab of them before one of them speak the helper hands clampped their mouth but not reaching the nose so they could breath.
They saw a figure go closer to XD he was short and almost looked like george.
HD spoke up "you do know mortals arent allowed here and its for gods only."he flicked XD's masked it lifted a little but XD shifted the position of the mask.
Ok ok guys quick explanation XD and Dream can see behind the mask because they have small holes allowing them to see in minecraft world but irl dream's mask is pitch black when u wear it ok ok im done now continue.
"yes,yes i do know but i trust them enough to not tell any other mortal."XD spoke up to HD.
HD sighed but decided to let the mortals go as soon as he did they immediently rushed behind XD.
George was still proccessing '𝘸𝘩𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘭𝘮𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘬 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘮𝘦' george thought to himself.
Dream and sapnap thought the same on he almost look like george but he doesnt,"oh yeah!,GeorgeHD meet sapnap,dream and george and sapnap,dream,george meet GeorgeHD!"XD introduced.
HD gave a rather mean look at the three mortals XD did notice so he gave a little nudge on HD meaning to stop scaring them.
"uhm,uh hello George HD? Uhh c-can you tell me why do you l-look like me?"george spoke up amd thought '𝘧𝘶𝘤𝘬 𝘪 𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘴𝘢𝘪𝘥 𝘶𝘩𝘩'george thought
dream and sapnap exchanged looks dream decided to ask "XD explain why he looks like george"dream gave a serious look on XD but he didnt see it cuz of the mask but XD felt the look.
"He is my friend he is also a god but i wish i can give the answer why they look alike but i dont know that info sorry."XD answered dream.
"But i do have another friend that looks like sapnap his name is sapnap4k but i do not know where he is at this time" XD continued and admitted.
HD sighed at XD "4k is at his house right now if u want u can introduce the mortals to him then after that they can go back" HD said.
"Oh wait that reminds me i havent showed my house also i almost forgot i can do this!"XD said at soon as he said 'this' a 'pop' has been heard and faster than a blink of an eye they were infront of XD's house.
the house was made of some glow stone for lighting and the main house was made of stone bricks and for the windows are just some purple ones.
"and here we are my house!"XD joyfully said to the four.
HD already knows so hes not suprised at all,when he turns his glance on the three they were amazed on how well built it was.
"wow,i dont even remember living here"dream spoke,HD didnt also remember dream being here so it was very confusing.
XD left with a 'pop' and came back with another 'pop' but when he came back he had another person with him.
and this time it almost looked like sapnap,XD spoke and said "and this is my other friend named sapnap4k"XD introduced.
Sapnap4k was confused but when he saw the mortals he pointed an accusing finger at XD "XD,you do know mortals are not allowed here!"he scolded.
"Yes i know,but i trust them to not tell anyone about this place and also please do not shout"XD defended calmly.
"welp,4k met them so time for them to go back!"HD spoke.
"No i didnt say i agree for them to go back after 4K meets them."XD said.
'𝘩𝘦 𝘪𝘴𝘯𝘵 𝘸𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩 ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)'Dream thought .
"I- Wh- XD!the heck XD!".
"To be fair he didnt say that he agrees for us to come back when we meet sapnap4k ¯\_(ツ)_/¯"sapnap spoke pointing to HD.
"lets go inside maybe play some truth or dare!"XD insisted.
"ugh,fine but this is the only time im letting mortals here the next time im kicking their asses out of here."sapnap4k insisted.
"Seems,fair dont u agree XD?"HD continued.
"ok,fine i wont allow them next time"XD rolled eyes and looked at the three mortals and gave 'im sorry' look.
and the trio gave back an 'its alright' look at XD.
"And here we are im gonna go get us some snacks you guys can start without me for a bit."XD said and left the living room for the kitchen.
"Ok!,guys lets sit at the probably move this table to the corner so we could sit like a circle"dream insisted and moved the table at the corner.
all of them sat down like a circle dream was next to HD on the left side and sapnap was on the other side,4K was next to sapnap and george was next to 4k.
"ok guess ill start,GeorgeHD truth or dare?"dream spoke.
"ill pick truth,and just call me HD and call Sapnap4k just 4k for short."HD answered.
"All right,how does XD treat you?a-as a friend you know"dream said.
"He treats me fine,same with 4k if your gonna ask soon."HD spoke and now sitting criss cross position.
"uhm my turn i guess,uh mortal sapnap truth or dare?"HD asked turning his head to sapnap.
"no need to call us with 'mortal'just say our normal names and i pick dare".sapnap said with his face like: ( ˘ ³˘).
"Uhm ok also what with the face and your dare is tell me one of your friend's most embarassing secret."HD said now smirking.
Sapnap thought for a bit but when he turned his head to dream he got an idea "dream is insanely adorobly ticklish"sapnap admitted smirking at how he saw dreams ear become red.
"that ihis not true sapnap!"dream defended '𝘍𝘜𝘊𝘒 𝘍𝘜𝘊𝘒 𝘍𝘜𝘊𝘒 𝘍𝘜𝘊𝘒 𝘚𝘈𝘗𝘕𝘈𝘗 𝘞𝘏𝘠 𝘋𝘐𝘋 𝘠𝘖𝘜 𝘜𝘎𝘏𝘏-'.dream thought to himself.
"Mhm,if its not true was that a giggle i just heard"sapnap now standing up going closer to dream.
"SAPNAP YOU BETTER NOT GET CLOSE TO ME!"dream pointed an accusing finger at sapnap who was getting closer even if he is shuffling to the wall.
"ooooh~dreamlee is gonna get wrecked~"george teased smirking at how they were fighting to pin each other down.
Before dream could even defend sapnap pounced on him and sapnap quickly scribbling his sides earning a yelp from dream.
"Nohoho!sahapnahahap st-AHAHAP!" Dream was already giggling up a storm and his giggles turn into laughter as sapnap put his hands inside dreams not tucked in hoodie now tickling the exposed stomach.
"Well,guess the dare was also a truth"HD said smirking at the two.
"SAHAPNAHAHAP STOHOP PLEHEHEASE!"dream said with watery eyes (already)a blush reaching his ears and a smile thats long (btw sapnap removed his mask).
"Ok,ok fine cutie"sapnap stopped and backed off rubbing dream on the tummy to lessen the ghost tickles.
When sapnap moved to sit next to george now he tackled the two and looked both at them with playful but vengeful eyes (❍ᴥ❍ʋ).
"Hey!,what did i do?!"george spoke to dream.
"First of all you did not help me second of all you teased me so now your apart of my revenge!"dream said he was pinning them both down and now was using one of his hands and pinching sapnaps lower ribs then used his other one to scribble on georges sides.
Both of the men immediently giggled out a storm with dream teasing them it was worst.
"Hmm,whos the lee now george oh! And whos the cutie now sapnap?~"dream teased to both of them.
He decided to raise this up an octave and went for their hip bones both men almost screamed that would break the glass.
"DREHEHEAM IM SOHOHORRY STAHAHAP"sapnap managed to laugh out.
Dream let go of sapnap but not george "hey george you think you owe me an apology?~".
"OKAHAHAHAY OK IHIM SO-SOHOHORY TOHOHOO NOHOW STAHAHAP PLEHEHEASE!"george laughed out and dream got off and stopped.
"And there you go!" Sapnap was about to say something but got interrupted by a *ahem* from the kitchen.
everyone turned to look who it is it was XD was he watching them this whole time?.
They almost forgot that 4k and HD were also here and three of them blushed a light red color that reached the tips of their ears.
"Well that was quite a show,also why did u come up for that dare HD?"XD said walking back to the kitchen to get the snack that he prepared.
"uhh i dunno just came up to my mind thats all-"HD answered.
"hey dream,i have a secret about HD come ill whisper it to you"XD said while placing the snacks on the table at the corner.
HD tilted his head while dream head over to XD when XD was done whispering it to him he saw dream smirking and was growing suspicous on what XD had told him.
"Hey HD can u close your eyes for a bit?"dream asked while heading over to HD who still has a tilted head,he knelt down behind HD and waited for him to close his eyes.
"uhm,ok fine i guess"HD responded then closed his eyes still confused on what gonna happen.
everyone was staring at HD and dream XD was also smirking while staring dream raised his hands and made contanct with HD's ribs and HD immediently caught up on what XD had told his little brother.
"Wait-!" Before HD could even protest dream had start scribbling on his upper ribs down to his sides dream repeated this motion and HD was gonna lay on his stomach when he did dream got access to his back ribs and had start scribbling there left HD a giggly mess.
"Gahahaha! Ihis thihihis whahat you tohold hid ehehex dehe?!"HD managed to giggle out while attempting a death stare but failed with his wobbly smile and a pink flush on his face.
"Maybe i did,maybe i didnt" XD said while smirking and getting close to the two.
"dohohont evehen gehet clohose to mehe duhumb mahasked idihiot yohour brotheher is ahalso a duhumb idihiot lihihike y-HOHOHOU!".HD said that making the brothers do a dramatic gasp.
Dream didnt wanna do mercy anymore and he dug in the hollows of HD's under arms and XD went behind dream and squezing behind HD's thighs making him laugh with a few snorts.
"FUHUHUHUCK YOHOHOHOU BIHIHIHITCHEHES!"HD scolded in laughter and he wheeze for about 5 seconds which turned into silent laughter after.
"Now,now thats mean you want us to stop right?"XD said calmly like hes not tickling the fuck out of HD.
"maybe if he said an apology to us we will stop."dream continued and turned his head to XD who was now squeezing behind his knee caps.
"Hmm yeah what do you say HD? Or is it that you dont want to stop since you LoVe this so much?~"XD teased and switched to lightly scribbling his thighs and dream went on and gently scratching his sides.
"Ok ihim sohohoryy nohohow stohop plehease"HD giggled out in relief when the two got off him and still giggly from the left over tingles.
"You good HD?" XD said while rubbing the left over tingles and dream following him.
"no but i will be after this!"HD pounced on XD and XD knew this was his revenge.
XD tried to play dumb "HD what are you doing and why did you pounce on me?".
"Dont even try playing dumb XD you already know whats coming"he said with a wink and didnt wanna wait longer and pinching,scribbling you name it on XD stomach and sides.
he would also go pinch his ribs which made hum flinch everytime he did this randomly to keep him guessing.
"HeheHEY HD!Whahay ahare YOHohou gohohoing FOHor me ahand not DREheam?!" XD complained.
"as you know he already has been tickled and you told him to go for me so for now he is spared but not you."HD explained.
"Welp since you made me laugh hard time to make YOU laugh hard"he dug in to the pits on XD upper set and for the lower set well he is just sitting on them.
"NOHOHAHAHAHA NOHOT THEHEHEHERE HD STOHOHAH*snort*!"XD's laughter raised an octave and snorted which made HD stop for a bit and XD was in wide eyes and a deep blush realising he had just snort.
"Pfft- YOU SNOHORT?!" HD bursted out laughing and everyone else in the room except him.
"I think i can have mercy on you now" HD got off of XD and let him breathe.
"shush its not like im the only one who snorts when tickled hard"XD got up and turned his head to 4k who was sitting very quitetly.
"You know...there is someone in the room who hasnt been tickled yet"XD looked got up and started to walk towards 4k.
"HEY! HEY NO DONT GET CLOSE FUCKER!"4K cussed pointing an accusing finger at XD.

based around the idea I had and absolutely canon fact that HD's helper hands sometimes act out without HD even realising. 4K doesn't mind but it's hard to get anything done when he's being teased and tickled all day

Halloween Mansion
Dream, George and Sapnap are invited to a fun Halloween event by their siblings DreamXD, GeorgeHD and Sapnap4K. They get to play hide and seek in a scary haunted mansion. But they definitely don't want to be caught.
Tah-Dah :D Happy (very late) Halloween! This fic was started a way back in September and I stupidly thought I could finish it for Halloween. Nope :) But it's done now and while I had to change and alter some stuff, I am super proud of it.
Warning that this is a real long fic so please take breaks if you need to and read in spurts if that's better for you. I want you to enjoy it to the fullest.
Enjoy~
---
When the three Gods, GeorgeHD, Sapnap4K and DreamXD, said they had a special event planned for their siblings, there was equal parts curiosity and worry. The Gods had been saying for while they wanted a “play date” as it were with all of them. It was exciting to see the Gods so happy about the upcoming event but at the same time there was a fact looming over them that didn’t sit right with the Dream Team.
Halloween.
The day for candy and mischief was fast approaching. The longer the Gods were silent on the event, the more the Dream Team worried.
“It’s obviously a prank.” George reasoned. “HD tells me it will be ready soon. 4K is getting giddier every day. It’s a Halloween prank.”
The three had a rare free day together and spent the time hanging out. They were exploring through a forest and took a break in the afternoon. Naturally talk went to the upcoming event.
“It could be nothing.” Dream suggested, almost hopefully. “Get us all excited for the promise of something and then it’s just nothing.”
“Nah, 4K would actually cry if that was it.” Sapnap dismissed that idea. “He hates those pranks.”
“And they call it an ‘event’.” George pointed out. “So, whatever it is, it’s something big. Something that counts as an event to them.”
“What could be considered an event to a God?” Dream asked.
The three tried to bounce around more ideas, but they couldn’t reach an agreement, and without confirmation it would all just be guessing. None of the Gods were letting it slip what it was, so all they Dream Team could do was wait.
Painfully wait.
Finally they got news. Each of them received an invitation one morning, just showing up in their homes, with coordinates on it. It came a week before Halloween, and the invitation was decorated with cute pumpkins and bats. Definitely a Halloween event.
The three of them met up and after making sure it was the same invitation for all, went to the coordinates together. Unsurprisingly, the three God were there, ready to meet them.
“Finally finally finally!” 4K chanted happily. He jumped up from his spot on the log the three were sat at. “It took you so long!”
“You could have teleported us here.” Sapnap grumbled. “It took us all day!”
The three had headed out as soon as they were ready, which was just before noon, and by the time they reached the spot the sun was setting. It was closer to Kinoko Kingdom than anywhere else but none of them had ever been here. It was mostly a windswept biome, with steep hills and open fields. The three came to a forest line where the three Gods were waiting. With a very suspicious cobblestone wall behind them.
“We wanted you to get in the spirit.” XD said happily. He kept his arms down to his side but his hands were flexing and trying their best to keep still.
“What spirit? Tired?” Dream asked rhetorically, yet HD still responded.
“Exactly,” he started and his voice went low. “You’ve been walking aaaaaaall day and it’s starting to get dark. You just want to lay down and rest but it’s not safe out here. Then you see it…”
 With a grin, and snap of his fingers, the cobblestone wall behind the Gods crumbled and fell away to reveal the forest behind.
The first thing obvious about the forest was that it was manually made. The trees were a mix of oak and dark oak, stretching up far to block out the sun’s light. Their branches were twisting unnaturally and their leaves were a rotting grey. The trunks of the trees had menacing faces carved into the wood, some that were only revealed when the light hit them a certain way. There was a worn out winding path through the trees leading up to dark crumbling gates, and behind that a massive mansion.
It was the full definition of a haunted mansion. The outside was decorated like an old timely building. It’s walls were an old white, almost grey with the decay look, and black roofs. The lights of the mansion were on, glowing an eerie orange, finishing the perfect picture of a haunted mansion deep in the woods.
The siblings were stunned, taking in every detail. It was Dream who spoke first. “When?! When did you even do all this?!”
“We’ve had the past few weeks to get this fixed up.” 4K boasted with a wide grin, his arms around both the other Gods.
“We are also Gods, this is not hard for us.” HD shrugged. “Most of the time was spent on designing the thing and designing the inside.”
“The inside!” George said excitedly. “Can we see inside?!”
“You will soon.” HD nodded. “But we have to explain the rules first.”
“Rules?”
The grin over 4K’s face widened, and even HD seemed to be holding back his own smile. The Nether God took his arms from the other two, letting them space out before HD carried on explaining. “This is your event. You’ll get to explore the haunted house we’ve made.”
“Buuuut,” XD added. “You’ve only got 20 minutes to explore and then find yourself a hiding spot. Cause after 20 minutes, we’re coming in to find you.”
“Find us?” Sapnap blinked as though confused. Then it clicked. “Oh! Like hide and seek right?”
“Yes! Exactly like hide and seek!” 4K excitedly nodded. He was practically bouncing on his feet. “We’ll give you time to look around you know, and admire our work. But then you’ve gotta find a spot to hide.”
“There are a few hiding spots in the house.” XD gestured back up to the mansion. “Some we’ve made secret. Secret doors, hideaways and crawl spaces.”
“But you’ll know all the hiding spots!” George quickly pointed out. “You three made them.”
“I mean…yeah” HD shrugged, chuckling a little with their admittance. “Honestly George, we’re going to find you eventually. There’s no time limit on how long we have. You just don’t want to be the first one caught.”
“Or the first one to tap out.” XD added.
The phrase ‘tap out’ sent a worry through all three of the siblings. One they knew the other was feeling. They gave a quick glance to each other before Dream brought up the courage to ask. “Tap out from what?”
“I mean, do we reeeeeally need to spell it out?” 4K grinned. “I think you know.”
As though to make a show and really get his point across, 4K lifted his hands in show and made wiggling motions with his fingers. If it was just hinted at before, it was very much laid out plainly now to different reactions. George’s face turned red under his mushroom blush with a nervous laugh. Sapnap flat out shouted while his face turned red.
“N-No! We didn’t agree to that!”
“Where is your Halloween spirit, Sap.” 4K lowered his arms and pouted. “You used to love Halloween when you were little. You’d ask for ‘tickle or treats’ all the time when you were little! You’d-”
“Stop!” Sapnap jump forward then, trying hard to cover 4K’s mouth a shut him up. It didn’t work exactly but 4K just laughed and struggled with his brother.
“It’s our Halloween present for you three.” XD explained with a smile. “We wanted to make something fun for you and get you into the season.”
“Wh-Whahat part of the Halloween season involves ti…th-that?!” Dream stuttered with his words, which was clearly noticed by the Gods.
Though XD smiled he didn’t point out it, and just answered. “Is it not in the spirit to run from monsters, and get soooo worked up over the thought of being caught?”
“Monsters catch you to eat you. They don’t catch to tickle usually.” George pointed out, glancing between the group and the mansion looming up ahead.
“The Halloween spirit is for fun tricks. Nothing gruesome or really harming.” XD said.
“If it makes you feel better George, you could think of us as tickle monsters.” HD smiled with his own amusement. “Those monsters wouldn’t hurt you.”
“Really?” George asked while watching over 4K and Sapnap’s scuffle.
The ‘fight’ between the two was very much over with Sapnap held up over 4K’s shoulder. Sapnap still fought as much as he could from his position, though it was hardly effecting his older brother. “If they didn’t ban me from tickling you I’d be wrecking you right now.” 4K growled playfully.
“Let me down and I will show you wrecking!” Sapnap growled back.
“Enough! Put him down, 4K.” HD called and despite an over dramatic huff, 4K obliged. Sapnap immediately scurried back to Dream and George’s side once he was free, glaring to his brother who just grinned back. “We are wasting precious time.” HD added.
“Yes yes of course.” 4K nodded enthusiastically. “We got to get to the game!”
Each of the Dream Team glanced up to the mansion again before looking to one another. They spoke without words, using their eyes only before looking back up to their brothers.
“What are the rules?” Dream asked.
The Gods smiled, 4K having to hold himself back from jumping for joy.
“You get 20 minutes to hide.” HD repeated. “It has to be somewhere in the mansion, it can’t be in the woods. Afterwards we’ll come find you. When we catch you, you’ll be tickled. When you safeword, the tickling stops and you lose.”
“If we see you, but we can’t grab you, you have a chance to run.” 4K grinned. “I mean, it won’t do you much good but you can run.”
“What if you can’t find us?” Sapnap asked almost hopefully.
“Oh we’ll find you.” 4K assured him. “We know every part of this mansion. We’ll find you.”
“Even if it does take us a while,” HD quickly added. “It doesn’t matter how long it takes us to find you. It matters how long you last the tickling. The one who taps out first loses.”
“And what happens to them?” Dream asked.
“That’s for later.” XD waved that off. “Now, is there any rules any of you want to add?”
The three looked at one another again. “N-No-No nibbling on my stomach.” Dream finally spoke.
“Oh true. He’ll die right away if we do that.” XD spoke so easily which made Dream’s face turn red.
“My wraps on my arms stay on.” George added in.
“Okay. That’s fair.” HD agreed then looked to Sapnap. “Anything for you?”
“Nah. You’re not even gonna catch me.” Sapnap boasted.
“Oh, really.” HD’s eyebrows shot up and a grin spread on his lips. “I hope I find you.”
Sapnap just grinned back, but Dream watched the way his legs twitched and he shuffled on his feet. It looked like he was readying himself, but Dream knew it was to let out his nerves.
“Yous ready then?” 4K asked with a wide grin. He was almost as jumpy as his brother, but he had a hunter glint in his eyes.
The siblings agreed, each growing more excited.
“Alright. 20 minutes. Your time starts as soon as you step towards the mansion.” HD said.
“Wha-! it should start when we’re in the mansion!” George whined.
“Walking on the mansion path still counts.” XD grinned. “So you three had better run there quickly.”
Dream tried to look to George and Sapnap, and organise a time to run together, but when he looked around George had already sprinted off, running up the path.
“What th-GEORGE!” Dream shouted.
“You’ve fucked it for us!” Sapnap shouted after but ran right after the brunette.
“Sapnap!” Dream shouted.
“Time’s started Dream! Better get moving~” XD called out.
Dream opened his mouth to argue but quickly shut it. He realised he was wasting time and quickly ran up after George and Sap who were near half way through the woods.
“They move fast when they’re timed.” 4K giggled and settled back down to sit on the log he was on before.
“Hopefully they’re fast enough.” HD said.
---
The three burst into the mansion doors together. Sapnap and Dream quickly caught up with George and without even waiting threw open the large white doors.
The front hall of the mansion was a wide open grand space. There were doorways on either side of the room and beside each of them a large stairway that curved up to the second floor. Between the stairs was a large archway leading to a further hall. The floorboards were an old grey with a large red rug, leading down to the long corridor.
It looked like there was a library room on the right and some sort of living room on the left with a fireplace. Dream only had a quick glance of it before his attention was drawn to the stairs, as George ran up them frantically.
“George! We’ve got 20 minutes!” Dream called up.
“It’ll take us 20 minutes to find a hiding spot! This place is huge!” George called back as he ran through the halls. The sounds of his footsteps faded further and further until they disappeared.
There was some truth in George’s words. They couldn’t really explore much of the house and take in all the details with a time limit looming over them.
“He’ll just get lost. That’s his strategy!” Sapnap said while peeking around the corner to the library. “One of these bookshelves definitely open.”
Dream looked into the room too. It would make sense for a haunted house to have secret doorways, but none of the bookshelves looked different from the others. All were built into the walls and stretched up the high ceiling. It was tempting to find it, but Dream didn’t want to waste time with one room.
“Let’s look around together.” Dream suggested. “And this way if we find a spot we want, at least the other person knows not to go for it.”
Sapnap agreed and the two carried on. They gave a quick look into the living room with the fireplace and immediately noticed the fire was fake and the back of the fireplace opened up. The two crawled through to a hidden kitchen. The middle of the room taken up by a large hob stove, but there was no other doors out so they retreated.
The hallway through the archway only had two doors at the end of the hall. On the right lead to a dark study with only candles of green flame for light and the door on the left was to an observatory. The wall to the back garden was all glass and would have probably been a nice room to relax in during the day. At night through it looked out to the dark forest with many glowing eyes looking to the large window. Dream wondered how many of the eyes were fake effects the Gods put on, and how many were real animals checking out the place.
“Okay. There is so obviously more hidden rooms down this hallway.” Sapnap commented as they walked back to the front hall. “Look how big this space is, and we know the kitchen is there,” he tapped the wall to elaborate. “So we know they’re absolutely hiding secret rooms.”
“I’m more worried about trick rooms.” Dream thought out loud. It had been a though plaguing him since he stepped foot in the mansion.
“Trick rooms?” Sapnap asked with his head tilted.
“Well they’re Gods with unbelievable powers. They could easily make a sort of…illusion. Or teleportation we don’t realise. Open one door and it’s a bathroom, then close and open it again and it could be another hallway.”
Sapnap blinked in thought, his eyes suddenly wide. “I didn’t even think of that!” He mumbled. “Well maybe that will make it harder for them to find us.”
“I doubt it.”
They had reached the stairs and quickly climbed up them. While exploring downstairs they heard running footsteps of George upstairs, frantically trying to find a hiding spot but neither could see him.
The upstairs had a lot more space than Dream was expecting which lead him to believe he was right that some illusion was at work. He tried keeping a map of the floor plan in his head but this large hallway already didn’t make sense. The stairs lead to a long hallway forward and then it split into three separate directions with a cross section.
“GEORGE!” Sapnap shouted out. “Where are you?!”
The silence that followed was eerie and unsettling. Dream and Sapnap gave a look before Dream shouted out as well. Still no answer.
“It’s a big place, he’s not going to hear us.” Dream  gave out the excuse, though it didn’t exactly sit right with him. They agreed that was the reason, but kept an eye out as they continued down the halls.
The hallways each held a few doors which they randomly opened to search. Dream came upon a large grand ballroom, with a piano playing itself in the corner, and strange dancing lights all around the ceiling. Next was a half elegant games room. One side the room was in tact and the other was a rotten, house of horror mess.
Sapnap near enough screamed when he found a room full of skeletons. Dream ran to his side ready to help but as he got there the screams died and he looked to see that the skeletons were unmoving. They were sat around a study, displayed in different activities, but they weren’t mobs and made no attempt to move.
Dream sighed in relief, letting his heart calm down while he shot Sapnap a grin. “Dude, really?” He chuckled. “A few skeletons and you scream?”
“I thought they were coming at me, okay!?” Sapnap huffed. His cheeks flushed to his mistake and he kept one eye on the skeletons even while he scoffed how stupid it was.
The urge to tease his friend faded when he was reminded of the time limit. Sapnap closed the door and Dream kept quiet when he swore he could have seen the skeleton at the desk move it’s head ever so slightly just to get a last look at Dream before the door closed.
“How long has it been?” Dream’s head worked to keep himself in the moment and off the creepy atmosphere. The grand paintings of unknown nobles that lined the hallways all had eyes following the two. That was standard house of horror, but out the corner of Dream’s eye he swore he saw some of the paintings change and move and their expressions grew more wicked and horrid.
“I don’t know I lost count when he came up here.” Sapnap admitted. “It was five minutes I think we were looking around downstairs. Maybe.”
Okay, that made sense in Dream’s head. He made a rough guess of how much time past and followed from there. To keep himself safe he assumed they had ten minutes left. Ten minutes until this house became a real house of horror.
“Look! An attic!” Sapnap elbowed against Dream’s arm, drawing him from his thoughts before jogging ahead.
Dream couldn’t see it at first until he followed after and saw the thin drawstring hanging from the ceiling. Sapnap had already jumped and grabbed the string to pull it down.
The house made a horrid groan as the attic hatch was slowly pulled down but it was nothing compared to the scream that followed after it.
Dream and Sapnap both jumped, Sapnap losing grip on the string, but it already fell. The stairs unfolded and clattered on the ground, offering a way up but Dream and Sapnap were still shaken from the scream. But it was a scream both of them knew too well.
“George?!” Dream called up.
“Wha-Dream?!”
There was the sound of footsteps approaching before George’s head popped out over the small opening to the attic. His brunette hair was covered in cobwebs and dust.
“You idiot! I thought you were them!” George called down, his voice high pitched with anticipation, but Dream could see the sigh of relief through his body.
“We were shouting on you, idiot.” Sapnap said as he took a step up the attic stairs.
“AH! NO!” George suddenly shouted and steps forward to block the hatch way up. “No! This is my hiding spot!”
“What?!” Sapnap looked up. “Let us up and see! You can’t just call a spot!”
“I just did, idiot! Find your own spot!”
“No! Fuck off!”
Sapnap tried to charge up the stairs as George tried to block the way in. Dream quickly followed after, stopping a scuffle before it could begin and one of them hurt themselves falling down the stairs.
“We’re not taking your spot, George, we’re just exploring the house. Just let us up to see what’s there.”
George glared at the two like they were lying to him before he finally moved out of the way. “If you even try, I’ll push you both out.”
George backed away from the entrance and Sapnap quickly scurried up. Dream followed up after, surveying the room slowly as he did.
The place looked like what was expected of an attic in a haunted mansion. It was a rather long attic thought the slanted walls of the roof around it mad it seem smaller. The walls were a mix of the dark grey wood and old wallpaper which was ripped and peeling at some parts. There were old rusting clothes railings holding old timely clothes, piles of chest and boxes, mirrors and vanity chests covered in old sheets and old chairs all strewn about the place.
The space was a perfect for hiding and Dream was kicking himself for letting it go so easily. He was talking himself more out of it the longer he stared. It would be harder to evade the seekers in the attic with only one way out, and if they closed the hatch behind them it would be game over.
“I’m going to hide in one of these.” George lead them over to the pile of chests. “The big one! I’m going to slip in with the small box on top so it looks undisturbed.”
“You’ll move the cobwebs, idiot.” Sapnap quickly pointed out. “They’ll notice.
“No! No! Watch!” George excitedly went over beside the chests. Dream thought it was cute how George was so protective over his hiding spot, yet was so eager to show it off.
The chests were completely covered over in thick cobwebs though Dream hadn’t seen any spiders around the house. He grabbed a handful of the cobwebs and tore them away, enough that a few boxes were revealed before he stood back. Dream and Sapnap watched, giving glancing looks to each other before it started.
The cobwebs began to grow back. Slowly they formed their webs and entwined with one another until they grew back completely and recovered the chests.
“See! They’d never know! I’ll be perfectly hidden.” George grinned with a sense of pride. “By the time they come to look for me, the webs will be back up and they won’t know which chest to get. They’ll give up.”
“Very brave to assume they’ll just give up.” Dream said. “They might leave but they’ll come back.”
George scoffed to the very idea of it, and threw off the cobwebs, which Dream took notice had slowly dissolved. They completely disappeared before they even hit the floor.
“When are they coming anyway?” George asked.
Dream was just wondering that as he spotted the small circular window at the front of the room. He went over to it and tried to get a look out. It faced out to the front of the house and the forest before that. Then, right at the edge, Dream could see the Gods still sitting.
Even before Dream could spot the Gods, he knew something was wrong. When Sapnap and Dream found the attic hatch it should have been at the far back of the house but this window was right at the front. The attic space wasn’t big enough to reach there.
“This mansion doesn’t make sense.” Dream turned back to the two.
“Well it’s a haunted mansion,” George said with a shrug. “It’s got some trick rooms.”
“No, I mean the layout. The attic hatch is at the far back of the cross hallway so it should be at the back of the house. But the window is right at the front of the house.” Dream worked through the map in his head, already knowing it wasn’t making sense.
“What? No!” George shook his head. “The attic is right at the start of the hall.”
Dream gave a look to Sapnap, confirming with a look that wasn’t right. “No. The attic is right after the cross section in the hallway?”
George raised an eyebrow. “What cross section? The hallway upstairs is straight.”
It was already obvious but it was good having confirmation that the house was definitely making illusions. That changed Dream’s plan of trying to keep outrunning the Gods. Any doorway could lead him right into their arms.
Sapnap argued with George over it as Dream looked back out the window. He could barely see the Gods beyond the forest as the sun was fully set by now. But he could see them just enough to make out the fact that Gods were moving. They stood up altogether and then started making their way to the mansion.
“They’re coming!” Dream backed off from the window. Adrenaline coursing through him, drawing in his breath as he turned to Sapnap and George. “They’re coming here!”
“What do you mean they’re coming here?!” Sapnap gasped. “It’s not been 20 minutes!”
“It clearly has!”
Even with the coursing panic and shouting between the three, they were all smiling.
“Get out! OUT!” George quickly pushed the two back to the hatch again. “This is my spot! Out!”
“G-Geohorge!” Dream chuckled while trying not to fall down the stairs.
“We don’t have a spot to hide!” Sapnap tried to excuse as he put up the most fight to keep in the attic. Still even with his strength, George got a good jab onto his sides and he was tumbling down the stairs and into Dream.
“That’s not my problem!” George shouted.
The attic stairs were pulled up as soon as their foot was off the stairs. Dream and Sapnap untangled themselves, just managing to stand up when they heard the front door open.
“Dream Teeeeeam~ Come out and plaaaaaay~”
It was 4K’s voice, eerily echoing throughout the house and bouncing off the walls. It felt like it hit Dream’s bones. Chilling him completely and soon he was running off after Sapnap who had bolted the moment he heard the voice.
“Split up!” Dream heard himself yelling.
“Good luck, brother!” Sapnap shouted after him before he ducked down the left hand split of the hallway. Dream went down the right.
The upstairs had changed since Dream and Sapnap went into the attic and came back out. Dream immediately noticed it. Instead of the attic laying just ahead of the cross pathways, it was now in the middle of a straight hall that lead to a T-shaped corridor.
The map Dream had trying to make for himself was thrown out of his head as he scurried down the corridor. The left wall was lined with tall windows, letting in the light of the moonlight which worked in Dream’s favour as the mansion lights suddenly shut off.
Dream heard the distant screams of George which he hoped was just from the lights going out and not because he was caught. While giving a mental good luck to George, Dream carried on.
On the right side was a line of five doors, with no indication to what sort of room they lead into. Dream stopped in front of one door when he heard footsteps quickly run up the stairs. He had no time to think anymore and picked a door, running through and slamming it shut behind him.
If he had been hoping for some room, luck was not on his side. It was another hallway. A long hallway with many doors on both sides.
“What the fuck…” Dream whispered under his breath before taking careful steps forward. Lights were still on in this hallway, though it was dim candlelights flickering.
There was no time to take in any more detail as Dream remembered there was a God chasing him. If he was quick about it he could duck into another room and there was no way they’d know which.
Just trying to pick randomly, Dream walked up to the third door on the left, opened it and stepped through. He came out to the same hallway, but out of the first door on the right.
“Wh-What?” Dream looked up and down the hall. He quickly turned back, going back through the door he came out and instead came out the door opposite himself.
“What in the Scooby Doo fuck is this?!”
Dream tried to leave out the door that lead him into the hallway but it instead brought him out to the door on his left. Dream was stuck.
He ran through a few more doors, trying to make some sense of what door would take him out what, but it was all random chance. He tried walking through the door but keeping the door behind him open and it didn’t work. It seemed like each doorway brought him out to a new version of the hallway, untouched but just as confusing.
A part of Dream worried he was really stuck but he shook that off. This was a haunted mansion made by his brother and his friend’s brothers. It was all for fun, they’d never leave him in here. Though it honestly didn’t help his situation.
Dream went through a few more doors before the hallway finally changed. He came out the of the doorway leading into the hall, but then at the opposite end of the hall there was a turn. Dream didn’t question any more. It was new and got him out of this hallway so he quickly followed it.
Unsurprising but just as confusing, the turn lead into another hallway. There was about ten feet of actual hallway, and then it turned into a moving hallway. A tunnel that spun around and around with flashing arcade lights embedded into the ever spinning walls.
Dream had known these kinds of hallways were called vortex tunnels. He’d heard of them at carnival fun house rides but had never seen them. Even looking at it now was making him dizzy and making his eyes unfocused.
There was another door down at the end of the spinning hall, but the way forward wasn’t easy. Though Dream knew in his head he could get through it he was debating if it was worth it when he heard the click of a door opening, and a voice called out behind him.
“Who’s gotten caught in the trick hallway?”
It was GeorgeHD’s voice, chuckling with amusement and a tinge of a growl behind his voice.
There was no more time for debating, Dream just quickly leapt into the tunnel.
It wasn’t spinning too fast, at least not as fast as Dream thought. The flashing spinning lights were making it look faster but when he was up and actually watching it, he could easily follow the movement. He quickly stepped onto the shifting tunnel, moving in step with each turn he took. It meant he had to go slow, but at least he was moving.
He came to just about halfway through the hallway when he heard the footsteps quickly behind him. Dream looked over his shoulder to see HD standing at the end of the hallway. His eyes caught Dream’s and he beamed with a huge grin.
“Well hello, little champion.”
Nerves and anxiety welled in Dream’s chest, and came up in a mix of a squeak and hysterical giggles. He just about managed to let out a few no’s until he realised he had stopped moving.
Like a Looney Tunes moment, as soon as Dream realised his legs hadn’t moved the tunnel still did and he lost his balance. His hand tried to steady on the tunnel’s side, but it was no use when that moved too and Dream found himself on the floor of the ever spinning hallway.
“Well that was a mistake, wasn’t it?”
Dream turned on his side quickly, trying to look over his shoulder to get his eyes on HD before the tunnel spun him again. They still stood at the end of the tunnel, looming over Dream. They seemed excited when Dream looked at them, easily stepping out into the tunnel. They didn’t have to step carefully like Dream did. The spinning didn’t even bother HD as he stepped out. He didn’t fall or lose his balance in the slightest. As the tunnel span, HD moved with it with his feet firmly on the tunnel’s surface. They took another step, only this time it was while they were upside down.
“W-Wahait! WAHAHAIT!”
Dream tried sputtering his pleas, but it was hard to keep his eyes on HD and to keep readjust himself to the tunnels spin. He had managed to get the same motion going with his arms as he had with his legs, but one of his hands slipped and he was rolling again.
“You’re so silly, Dreamie! You’re stumbling all over the place.”
“NOhoho! Ihihi’m nohot! I-Ihit’s thihis tunnel!”
He tried to right himself again, but it was practically no use. He was confused and dizzy and overwhelmed with the giggles as HD made his way closer and closer. Walking because he knew he didn’t have to run.
When the God was just a few steps away, Dream made a last ditch attempt to escape. He was about halfway to the end of the tunnel, he could reach it so easily, he knew he could!
The tunnel made another spin and Dream moved with it. He rolled onto his back and let the tunnel roll him, getting him onto his hands and knees and he pushed himself forward. He cleared a good distance and managed to get his legs working to work with the tunnel’s spin again. The end was in sight!
“No you don’t!”
The back of Dream’s cloak was grabbed and he was yanked. Pulled up and up into waiting arms that wrapped around his chest and held him in close.
“NO! NO! Thahat’s noHOT FAHAIR!”
“I snatched up a little champion!” HD’s voice was gleefully pressed against Dream’s ear. “I got XD’s cute little brother!”
“STOHOHOP!”
The lights kept spinning with the tunnel, disorienting Dream. It didn’t help with HD moving him around. He was released from HD’s arms and laid onto the floor. Or…what was the floor for now. Dream was on his back with HD straddling over his legs. The God had no worry for the tunnel’s spinning, but when Dream realised his position, he panicked.
“W-Wait! Wait! Please!” Dream pleaded. “I’ll fall!”
HD’s response was a scoff, and didn’t stop him from yanking up Dream’s top to just above his ribs. “Like I would let something like gravity get in the way of tickling you.”
The tunnel came to another spin and Dream tried pleading again but to no avail. All he could do was brace himself, preparing for the drop. But it never came. Dream scrunched his eyes shut but risked a peek out. He wasn’t falling, but the tunnel was still moving. Dream could feel his clothes trying to fall. His hair fell over his face and he looked up to see the hallway he walked in through was on the roof. Dream was upside down, but he was perfectly stuck to the wall.
“Wh-Wha-at?!”
"Now enough of that silliness.” HD’s voice snapped Dream back into the moment and drew his eyes back to him. Just in time to see the swarm of ethereal hands appear out from behind the God. “It’s time to get you tickled.”
“W-WAIT!”
Dream screech fell on deaf ears, and turned into a squeal of over anticipated laughter. He shrieked and screamed as the hands descended upon him one after the other. The first ones grabbed at his sides, kneading him up and down, then his ribs were vibrated over and finally his stomach was prodded, skittered and tickled. His arms flailed, trying to bat away at the hands but he could never hit them. To be fair he couldn’t really see where he was hitting as his eyes squeezed shut again with is laughter.
“STOHOHOHOP! HEHEHEHEDEHEHEHEHE!” Dream gasped as hands stuck into his armpits. Thumbs drilled into his pits and fingers scribbled along the back of his ribs.
“Its such a shame your tummy is off limits to nibbling, because I would have absolutely nibbled you up.”
“H-HEhehehHEHEDEHEHEHEHE!” Dream squealed as his face burned red.
“I had hoped I’d find the little spitfire. He was so cocky and I was so looking forward to tearing him apart. But tickling you is just as rewarding.” HD carried on like Dream wasn’t even talking. Like he wasn’t even there.
Though in all honesty, Dream could only hear ever other word the God was saying. He couldn’t hear much over his laughing and he couldn’t focus himself enough with the spinning lights and the world just constantly turning. While Dream might not have been falling, his body still felt every spin and the sensation of being upside down.
“P-Plehehease! H-HeheDehe…” Dream’s laughter faded down, turning more into pants of breath and giggles. HD’s tickling ethereal hands had stopped and faded off. “I-Ihihi’m dihizzihihiy!”
“Are you dizzy, little champion?” HD’s voice went softer, but it was overly so. “Why ever for?”
“The ro-hohom is spihinnihihing!”
“Well don’t focus on that, you silly. You should be focusing on these tickles you’re getting!”
“HEHEheheheDEHEhehehe!” Dream’s face burned brighter. He brought his arms up to hide his face. While still hiding his face he tried to reach down for his mask, but his hand was snatched up.
“Uh uh. None of that now.” HD moved Dream arm back up to his face with the other. “If you wanna hide it’s gotta be in your arms, mister.”
“No! Nono! Thahat’s nohot fair!” Dream whined behind his arm. He peeked out over the top, trying to see where HD’s next attack was coming from, but the God had his eyes down, focused onto something else. Dream at first thought he was looking at his mask, but then he felt a poke against his hip and Dream squealed.
“HEHEDEHEHE!”
“I’ve always seen you in this outfit. During your challenges and manhunts. You always show off your hips and sides. Why is that?” HD wondered aloud.
“Wh-Wahat!” It wasn’t the question Dream expected. And it was hard to think of a response when his mind was hazy from the spinning and the ghostly tickles still coursing through his body.
“You’re on the run, from hunters,” HD started as they put their two fingers on Dream’s hip, just above the waistline of his combat trousers. “And you wear a body suit that shows off your sides and hips when you should be covered as much as possible.” Their fingers started walking slowly up Dream’s hip. “Your sensitive little sides and hips are so exposed. I had to assume you wanted them to be noticed.”
“No! Nohohoho! I dohohon’t! Ihihi dohohon’t!” Dream tittered and tried to bat HD’s hands away though it was no use. The God’s arm was unmoving and even when Dream tried to grab at his hand, HD carried on like nothing.
“You want people to notice your hips.” HD announced like he came to the conclusion, and a wide grin spread on his lips. “Which is perfect for me, cause I want to nibble those hips.”
“NO! NO!” Dream screamed. He struggled with renewed vigour, kicking his legs and trying to push his HD’s hands away. “N-Nohoho! You-You cahahan’t! I cahan’t behe n-n-nihihibbled!”
“Your tummy can’t be nibbled.” HD corrected with his grin spreading wider. “Your hip and sides are fair game.”
Dream was moved again, though this time it was his own fault. He felt HD weight lift from him and he immediately tried to turn over on his side to scurry away. His escape attempt was less than a second long before HD was back on his legs, only now Dream was on his side.
“Wait! NO! Stop stop stop!” Dream pleaded desperately. He tried pushing his hand over HD’s shoulder which stopped the God but Dream had a feeling that was from HD’s choice. “Dohon’t! Please don’t!”
“If you want me to stop, you know what to say.” HD reminded him. “Until theeeeen~”
The God opened his mouth wide, showing his full set of sharp teeth and eager grin. Dream only managed to scream for a second, before he fell into hysterical laughter and jumbled, unintelligible babbles in a plead for mercy.
---
“Good luck, brother!” Sapnap shouted after Dream as the two had split up. Dream had taken the right side of the hallway and Sapnap ran down the left and quickly burst in through the first door he came across.
It was a bedroom Sapnap had burst into. It was old, dusty and the air was thick but it wasn’t messy. A large bed pushed against the wall on the right of the room with a chest at the end of the bed and a vanity table close beside it. There was a large wardrobe which Sapnap had considered hiding in but then something beside it caught his eye.
It was a wooden panel, half way lifted up revealing a small lift inside. A dumbwaiter!
Sapnap hissed out a quick ‘yes’ as he ran over to the wall. He pushed up the wooden panel and took a look inside. It was a simple dumbwaiter but it was big enough for Sapnap to get in and it had a simple rope pull at the side so he could work his way down.
The thought crossed his mind that it might be dangerous, but he was fuelled by adrenaline and the hope his brother wouldn’t allow him to get hurt. He climbed in quickly as he could, trying to listen out for any approaching footsteps but he wouldn’t risk it anymore; shutting the door and working the rope to pull himself down. Eventually it came to a stop and Sapnap reached for the handle of the door out before suddenly pulling his hand back.
What if they’re out there waiting?! He thought to himself. He tried to listen out to the unknown room, pressing his ear to the wood before slowly lifting the panel. Thankfully, the room was empty. Now Sapnap just had to figure out where he was.
It was a dining room Sapnap spilled into. There was a large table stretching from one end of the room to the other and chairs all lined up. It seemed like a completely normal room, except Sapnap quickly noticed there were no doors, but there was a suspiciously large bust of an old guy next to an empty part of the wall and with just a minute of searching, Sapnap found a button in the statue’s eye which slid open the wall beside it out to the hall.
The hall was empty which was another weight off Sapnap’s mind. He gave a quick peek out both ways and there was no sign of anyone. Sapnap was safe, but the feeling only lasted a moment.
Safe for now, Sapnap still needed to find a hiding spot and the layout of the mansion changing seemed intent to thwart him. He had planned to find an easy hiding spot and while the God overlooked him, take the time to run and duck out of sight. That idea was no use when the building seemed to change.
But Sapnap couldn’t wallow for long as he caught sight of the open wall that was the secret doorway. The walls were thick but the space between them was hollow. Easily large enough for him to slip through.
An idea struck in Sapnap’s head and before he had the chance to think it over, Sapnap quickly slipped in between the walls. As though realising his idea, the secret door to the dining room closed behind him.
There were no lights between the walls of course so it was near pitch black. There were some speckles of light coming in through tiny holes in the walls, but Sapnap’s eyes were easily adjusted to the dark. Sapnap could just about fit in the walls, his shoulders touching either side, but that was more than enough space for him to move comfortably.
“They’ll never look in the walls.” Sapnap almost giggled to himself.
It was a good plan but now the only place Sapnap could move to was forward. It wasn’t good not knowing where he was going but if he stayed still for too long he’d get bored and give himself away. So he moved.
It was impossible to know where he was moving to but he came to a lot of turns in the hallway and followed them around. He tried to peek out through the tiny holes in the walls, making out certain rooms he was passing by but nothing interesting. The worrying thing was that he hadn’t heard any of the God’s roaming around.
It was good he was avoiding them, but Sapnap hated not knowing where they were. He definitely preferred being the hunter in these situations.
Eventually, after wading through the cobwebs and dust that was absolutely settling in his lungs, Sapnap realised the space in the walls was getting thinner. It wasn’t like he had much of a choice but it was getting more worrying the further he went the harder it became to move. Eventually Sapnap was forced to walk sideways to progress forward.
It seemed like the tunnels opened up a bit more after a few steps and while they did it wasn’t enough room for Sapnap to turn. He was stuck in a less than ideal position that was impossible to run from. Luckily, he shouldn’t really have to. There was no way they’d think to look for him in the walls. Sapnap was perfectly safe.
“Who’s hiding in the waaaaaaalls~”
A cold sweat ran down the back of Sapnap’s neck and he froze mid-step. It was XD’s voice that crawled up through the halls. Sapnap could have sworn on his fiancé’s lives that he didn’t hear anyone walk by, but then suddenly he heard the slow footsteps of the God which sounded right beside him.
Of course, Sapnap remembered. XD can float. An important fact he had so carelessly forgotten about in his giddiness.
“Which of our little brothers has become a little mouse? Squeaking around in the walls…”
There was a few well placed taps on the wall that Sapnap had to bite his lips down to not make a noise from. None were directly on him, but the were close to send his mind in a panic.
I need to go back as quiet as I can. He resolved, but the plan was foiled before he could even  attempt to move.
The passageway ahead of Sapnap suddenly closed up. The narrow tunnel between the walls filled with what looked like cement and in the blink of an eye it hardened.
“No! Wha-!” Sapnap yelped before he could catch himself. He quickly tried to walk back the way he came, but as soon as he turned the walls ahead opened.
It wasn’t like the hidden door from before, swinging open, this time it was the front wall melting away into the room wherever XD was, and then XD leaned in. His arms braced against the opposite wall, blocking Sapnap from even trying to escape, and he leaned in with a curious smile before seeing Sapnap and it grew into a wide grin.
“Ohohoho! Little Sapnap!” XD giggled with delight. “I honestly thought it would be Dream to fall for the trap!”
“No! S-Stop!” Sapnap squealed and struggled back. The walls were too close to move far, and his shoulder touched onto the concrete blocking him in.
“I didn’t think you’d go for the walls,” XD spoke so casually. “I thought you’d be a runner for sure. But you’re just a little mouse.”
“Shut it!”
“A trapped little mouse.” XD made a step forward and Sapnap screamed.
“Stay away!”
“Our little mouse is stuck!” XD said gleefully.
“I’m not!” Sapnap snapped his teeth. He pressed himself as far as he could to the concrete and out of XD’s reach. Though nothing was out of his reach.
I can sneak under him and run. Sapnap quickly thought. His eyes scanned looking for a way out but XD spoke again.
“But you are…”
The walls tightened around Sapnap’s body just ever so slightly. It didn’t hurt him, but Sapnap still yelped. He pushed against the wall and wiggled, trying to get any room but it was no use.
“NO! That’s not fair!” Sapnap pleaded. “You can’t just do that!”
“I don’t recall that being in the rules.” XD hummed thoughtfully. One hand tapped on his chin, the other was reaching out towards Sapnap. “I believe the rules we were given was not to nibble on Dream’s tummy and not to touch George’s wraps.”
“S-SssstooOOOOP!” Sapnap shrieked.
“And you were offered to make a rule but you very bravely refused. Actually you boasted you didn’t need one.”
“I dohon’t-! I-I-!” Sapnap crumbled the closer XD’s hand got to him. “GEHET A-AHAw-awahay!”
“I’m helping you, little mouse. You’re stuck.”
“I dohon’t wahan’t your he-EEEEEEEP!”
The hand reaching out for Sapnap suddenly dropped down and grabbed around his ankles. The walls loosened ever so slightly as XD pulled and Sapnap was yanked down. He screamed but as he hit the ground it was soft, like falling onto a bed. His mind was in a mix of confusion; panic from the hand around his ankle and puzzled over the unusually soft landing. In his confusion he didn’t think to try and escape, and the walls squeezed close into him again, trapping him once more.
“Oh you fell!” XD spoke innocently, but his face was still grinning.
“Y-You-You pulled mehee!”
“I’m just trying to pull you out of the wall!” The hand clamped around Sapnap’s ankle pulled him just a little bit more, stretching out his leg and placing his foot in XD’s lap.
Sapnap tried to kick his legs away, but even his other leg was snatched up and held up and out of the way.
“Wait! Wait wait wait wait!” Sapnap’s voice melted from accusing to pleading. “Plehease! Please! Lehet me gohohoho!”
“I’m trying to, little mouse, but I need to pull you out.” XD’s hands were even trying to pull. Now while two sets of his hands held Sapnap’s ankles, his other hands began untying Sapnap’s shoes.
"NONONONO! Stop STOP!”
“This will help you wiggle out of there!” Sapnap’s shoes were off and tossed to the side.
“Juhust mohohove thehe wahahalls!”
“Nope!” Was all XD said before his nails touched onto Sapnap’s soles.
The tickling was instant, with no light flutter build ups or any real warning. XD’s claws raked up and down Sapnap’s soles before he tickled just lightly over his toes and then ran the pads of his index fingers up and down Sapnap’s arches.
Sapnap screamed with his laughter. Half was screaming for mercy, the other half was just random words and nonsense from his panicked, fried brain. He beat his fists against the walls, the floor, anywhere he could reach to get out the overwhelming feeling running through his nerves. Sap’s feet weren’t even that badly ticklish, but the tickling combined with being unable to move made him overly sensitive.
“You got to wriggle more than that little mouse.” XD spoke when Sapnap’s laughter calmed down. He had stopped tickling, but kept his nails on and poised to Sapnap’s soles, like a warning.
“I’m...Ihi’m nohohot aha m-mohousssse…” Sapnap managed to pant out.
“You scurry around in the walls, and get stuck in tight spaces. That is very mouse-like.”
“Mihice don’t get stuhu-AAAA!”
Sapnap was pulled once again, coming a bit more out of the wall before they closed in again. This time XD had access to his legs and he immediately got to work. Kneading and squeezing up and down Sapnap’s thighs. Skittering on the back of his knees. Sapnap got a little more kick in his legs but that didn’t help him at all. XD’s hands could hold him down and tickle him.
“Little mouse is almost out~” XD voice carried in an almost song. “I’m almost at his riiiibs~”
“NOHOHO! Nonohohoho! Noho yohohou’re nohohot!” Sapnap tried to claw and crawl further into the wall but anytime he got just a little give he was pulled back, only now his stomach was pulled out of the wall and exposed to XD’s waiting hands. The hoodie and top underneath was quickly yanked up and out of the way, free for XD’s skittering fingers.
“STOHOhohOoHOP! Pleheheheahease!”
“The little mouse needs to say his safeword if he wants it to stoooop~”
“NaAHAhaAhaAHA! Nnn-”
XD’s skittering claws rounded to Sapnap’s back, which was less tickly but still made him squirm. When the God’s hands started travelling up on his back though his voice got high and he squeaked out his pleas.
“PLEHEHEASE! Ple-Plehease! Please! N-Nohohoho mohohore! M-Mehehercy!”
“If you want it to stop you just gotta say the word.” XD shrugged. They lessened their tickling, allowing Sapnap a small break and a moment to talk. They kept his nails poised over Sapnap’s skin twitching just ever so slightly but not outright tickling him.
“N-Nohoho! No! I wohon’t!” Sapnap turned just ever so slightly to look at XD. Sometime between the tickling and walls moving, he had taken his mask off, keeping the criss-crossed wraps over his eyes but letting his wide smile show. “I’ll… L-Listen! Listen! I’ll-I’ll tehell you whehere Geohorge is hiding!”
XD made an over exaggerated gasp, his claws tightening just ever so slightly on Sapnap’s back. “You! You’d sell out your friends to save yourself!”
“Yehes!” Sapnap squeaked. “YES! Absolutely! You love tihihickling Geoohorge ahanywahay!”
“I love tickling anyone I find!” The End God sat himself up straight, squaring his shoulders like he was ruffled. “That includes...little,” he gave a poke into Sapnap’s sides, “sneaky,” another poke, “mice,” another poke, “who sell out their friends just to scurry away again.”
“Nohohohohonononoooo…” Sapnap’s giggles faltered and turned more into desperate pleas. “Dohohon’t!”
“And little sneaky mice who sell out their friends need to be extra punished.” XD grinned as he spoke, putting emphasis on his teeth clicking together and showing off his wide array of fangs.
There were taunting Sapnap. They were showing him what was going to happen. What he was going to be tickled with.
The will to live kicked into Sapnap’s limbs, surging him with energy. He kicked his legs hard enough he almost got out of XD’s hands, but even when one of his legs did get free he still couldn’t pull himself out of the wall. His leg was snatched up right away and he was pulled further out of the wall.
“WAHAIT! WAIT! DON’T-Dohon’t you dare…!” The warning would have been better taken if Sapnap’s voice didn’t get high and squeaky. And the person he was trying to threaten wasn’t a God.
Sapnap’s arms were free but were still just as useless. XD held them down pretty easily, and then his top was yanked almost up and over his head and the fangs were on the back of his ribs.
The fangs moved just ever so slightly but it was enough to fry Sapnap’s brain to the brink of insanity. He screamed and laughed and blurted out Prime knows what before the tickling was over and he was left panting on the ground.
By the time Sapnap felt somewhat conscious again, he felt XD’s hand pat on his side.
“You tapped out.” The God said it almost proudly.
Sapnap groaned into the ground before bringing up his arms to cover his face. His top and hoodie had been set right, though ghostly tickles still ran through his nerves and giggled in his words.
“Dihid I tahahap out f-fihirst?”
“Don’t know yet.” XD shrugged. “We will find that out when the others are done. Now come on.” He pat on Sapnap’s side again before standing up. “Let’s get you outside. Fresh air will do you good.”
Sapnap groaned in protest but it wasn’t really up to him. His body was like jelly and out of his control. He was brought up into XD’s arms as the God turned and began walking down the hall and out the front door.
The cold night air hit his face and the sound of distant owls hooting rang in his ears. It was a peaceful night. Enough that it settled Sapnap right to sleep for a quick nap.
---
George pulled the attic door up, slamming it shut for extra measure, making sure Dream and Sapnap knew they weren’t welcome. He felt a little mean, worrying they wouldn’t get a spot, but in a competition he wasn’t going to lose because of them.
He began pulling off the cobwebs right away, too frenzied to realise the thick veil of cobwebs had grown in denser. He just about got the boxes uncovered, but as he went to open his box to hide in, the cobwebs already started regrowing and covering the box again.
“What?! No!” George huffed and pulled the cobwebs off again. They grew back, and this time George could see the webs growing back in thicker. “You stupid-! Fine!”
Abandoning the task of pulling off the cobwebs, George instead pulled open the box he was going to hide in. He had to open it carefully, so as not to have the smaller box on top fall off, but George was too jittery with the prospect of being caught and frustrated from the cobwebs he threw off the box lid too fast.
The smaller box tumbled off and got caught in the cobwebs. It wasn’t such a bother but it made it obvious the box below, that George wanted in, had been disturbed.
“No! Just-Fuck!”
George was getting frustrated, not thinking clearly. He slammed the box close and tried to quickly reach for the dropped box, but his arm just brushed along the cobwebs as he reached over and that was enough to get caught.
The webs, now so thick they couldn’t be seen through, ensnared George’s arm. The webs stuck onto the cloth around his arms and even as George tried to pull back in a panic, the webs held him tight.
“NO! Nonononono!” George’s voice rose higher and higher the more panic set in. He knew he had a limited time before one of the Gods would eventually find this attic and each second fighting with this web was wasted. But George made the mistake of trying to pull away at the webs again, and that just got his other hand stuck too.
George shrieked in frustration, pulling at the webs to no avail and kicking at them to only get his leg caught. He knew struggling was making it worse. He just needed to calm down and think his way out of this. But when he took a breath and tried to calm down, the attic door open. And there was no calm anymore.
“Well, well, well…” The rumbling voice of the Nether God purred. George swung his head around as much as he could to see Sapnap4K slowly making his way up the attic stairs. He looked at George with wild, excited eyes. Like a hungry predator who just found his prey. “It’s the little prince who got caught in the webs.”
“NO!” George shrieked in time to the attic door slamming shut. 4K rose up to stand at his full height, almost reaching the attic’s ceiling with his horns. “WAIT! This isn’t FAIR!”
“Oh what’s not fair?” 4K’s head tilted. His voice mimicked concern but his eyes were still wild and his grin was taunting.
“I just…” It was a trap, George absolutely knew it was a trap, but the chance to plead for some kind of mercy he was not going to let pass. “I was trying to hide and this…web just caught me!”
George tried pulling at the web to make his point, but also trying in vein to pull it away. 4K nodded along sympathetically but his expression was amusement. Of course he was finding this funny.
“And th-that’s not fair!”
“You were given just as much time as the others to hide.” 4K mused, bringing a hand up to his chin to look thoughtful.
“Yes! Y-yes but this web just started going crazy! I had a good hiding spot, you would have never found me!”
“Really?” A flash of something sparkled through 4K’s eyes. A challenge perhaps. “Well then tell you what. I’ll give you ten seconds to get out of the web. If you can get out of the web in ten seconds, I’ll give you another 10 minutes to find a hiding spot. Sound fair?”
It wasn’t fair, and George screamed as such. “The time was twenty minutes! They got twenty minutes!”
“You did too.” 4K quickly pointed out. “And the web caught you. Really you shouldn’t be given any more time but I’m feeling merciful. Ten seconds to get out for ten minutes. Take it or leave it.”
George opened his mouth to shout unfairness again, but he quickly closed it and looked to the webs again. Those webs he had torn away so easily before, he could do it again. He could get away. He looked back to 4K and nodded.
“Deal!”
4K’s grin widened. “Ten… Nine… Eight…”
George’s heart raced and he turned back to the cobwebs. His arms were stuck, but there was a weaker point right where his left arm was and he tried to focus on it, pulling at his arm with all his might.
“Seven… Six… Five…”
The countdown was making George nervous. It was making him giggle out the squirming nerves in his stomach and losing focus. That was the reason he was breaking free, he decided. He was giggling too much so no matter how hard he pulled he wasn’t breaking free.
“Four… Three…”
4K’s voice sounded closer and George could hear the thump of his boots approaching. “W-WAHAHait! NO! You-You can’t come near me!” George yelped, making one harsh pull against his arm which actually got a bit of it free. “Wait! I’m doing it!”
“Two…”
A shadow towered over George, blocking out the light and while he might have got just a bit of his arm free it was nowhere near enough. Not when he felt 4K’s breath over the top of his head.
“W-Wait…”
“One!”
Warm darkness engulfed George’s vision. He was easily pulled up and away from the webs holding onto him so tightly before. He thrashed and tried to scream, pulling himself up so his vision wasn’t blocked by 4K’s stupidly thick arms.
“Let! Me! GO!” George kicked his legs and beat his fists into any part of 4K  he could get, but it was a useless struggle.
The Nether God just laughed, pulling George further from the pile of boxes and the webs that fixed themselves up again. Further from freedom. “The little prince caught in a spider’s web~”
“ShuHUT UHUP!” George’s face burned red. He felt 4K finally stop and then sit down. George was planted on his lap but he wasn’t even allowed a second to get his barrings as fingers dug into his sides and began tickling.
“NoHOooHoHOhooHOHOHOOO!”
“You’ve been caught in the spider’s web, Georgie. And I’m the big bad spider.”
“Nohoho yohou’re nohohot! STOHOHOP!”
The fingers over George’s side switched from kneading in to skittering. The fingers scurried over George’s side, down his back and then over his stomach and chest. While George managed to keep his laughter down to giggles, holding back as much as he could, he couldn’t help but throw his head back and burst with laughter at the never ending onslaught. No matter where George’s hand went to try and stop 4K’s, the hands tickling would quickly flit to a new spot.
“Plehehease! StoHOHohOP!”
“Now you’ve been caught, Georgie. And you know what happens when you’re caught in the spider’s web?”
“NohoHOHO!”
“It means you get gobbled up!”
The attic turned on it’s side as George was lifted up. The arms he was trying to bat away he was now grasping onto for dear life. The fangs just brushed along George’s side and it was enough to make him scream.
Every limb kicked and hit for freedom, though it was like hitting a rock. George’s top had been pulled so the fangs brushed over his skin, nibbling up and down his sides.
George’s brain was in a constant battle. Trying his hardest to escape the arms holding him, but also knowing without those arms he’d fall.
“FOHOHOUR KAHAHAY!” George managed to scream out between the laughter.
“Now I’m not allowed to nibble Dreamie’s tummy. So you’ll just have to take his too.” 4K mumbled against George’s back. He kept deliberately close so his fangs and beard brushed against the brunette’s skin.
George didn’t even have time to process the words, he was too busy trying to kick himself out of 4K’s arms. It was only when he was turned around and the fangs touched on his stomach did he really hear the words. But it was too late.
George didn’t hear the scream, but he knew he must have because his throat felt sore and hoarse. He was now laid over 4K’s lap instead of hanging in mid air, and 4K’s hands were rubbing in soothingly over George’s stomach rather than tickling.
“It’s over, it’s over.” 4K’s voice was warm, and deeper than his teasing tone. “You called your safeword, it’s over.”
George groaned in frustration, though it was cut short from the burn on his throat. “That’s so not fair…” He whispered. “I don’t even remember doing it…”
While that was true, George knew he must have. 4K wouldn’t lie and during his panic of being tickled, George would have screamed anything for it to stop. Of course he’d never admit that though.
“You still called it, buddy, so it’s counts.” 4K said as he pat George on the back. “Come on. Let’s get you out of here.”
The weightless feeling swooped George up and into 4K’s arms. He gave a small whine of protest but had no energy to even pretend fight. Instead he just lay his head over 4K’s shoulder as the God carried him down the attic stairs and through the hallways to the front door.
The cold air was bracing, yet comforting on George’s face. The pleasant feeling was the last thing George felt before he fell into a soft nap.
---
George snored almost like his brother which Sapnap4K found extremely cute. The brunette lay in 4K’s arms, curling into his side and giving of the softest snores every few breaths. It was a gentle sound that passed the time while 4K waited. The sky lost the last of the sunset colours when 4K saw someone approach from the mansion.
DreamXD came down the path, with Sapnap asleep in his arms. The blonde God caught sight of 4K, relief sighing his shoulders when he saw it was George in his arms and not Dream.
If 4K was disappointed to see Sapnap had tapped out he hid it behind his wide smile and chuckled to XD. “I could see your sigh of relief a mile away.”
XD gave a sheepish smile, shrugging softly to not disturb Sapnap too much. “I was just relieved seeing you were okay.”
“Uh-huh…” 4K grinned as XD approached. He sat on the log beside 4K and rearranged Sapnap to sit on his lap. “Just because Dream isn’t here doesn’t mean he ain’t the first one out. HD just might not have found him yet.”
The smile dropped from XD then which 4K laughed at. “Dream’s tough! He’s probably still holding out.”
“Sure. Even though his whole thing is about running and not being caught.” 4K pointed out, and giggled as XD’s expression grew more worried. “Better hope Dream’s holding out.”
“He is!” XD assured the other God, but he couldn’t deny he was worrying. Dream was naturally slippery and usually got out of any situation, but XD was choosing to believe his brother was holding out. One thing about Dream was he was competitive and stubbornly so. He’d last.
A few minutes passed, though neither God was keeping count. They spoke softly with one another, making sure not to wake the sleeping siblings. 4K had taken Sapnap into his other arm, which Sapnap seemed to prefer as he snuggled into his brother’s side. Just when XD was starting to get concerned and offer to go in and look for them, he saw them.
HD made his way down the path with Dream on his back. XD thought his brother was asleep, but the closer they got, he could see Dream wasn’t sleeping. Or…maybe he wasn’t. Dream’s eyes were half open but they looked dazed and distant. His mouth was moving slightly which made XD think he was talking, but the only sound he was making were little giggles.
“That took a while.” 4K chuckled with delight when he saw Dream’s giggling face. “Take a while to find him?”
“No, actually. I found him right away.” HD said, almost sounding surprised. “He lasted the full time.”
Both XD and 4K blinked. “What do you mean?” XD asked.
“He never tapped out. Not once. Not even when I was nibbling his hips and the hands were all over him. He lasted for the time we agreed.”
“The full ten minutes?!” 4K yelped, but quickly quietened as he remembered the sleeping boys in his arms. “He lasted?”
“Yeah.” HD readjusted Dream on his back. “He’s a little bit tickle drunk right now.”
Ah. That explained it. Dream’s dazed and giggly look was from him holding off but frying his brain a little. XD came forward, taking his brother off HD’s back and carrying him in his arms. Dream giggled again but settled. When he was closer, XD could see Dream was between sleep and awake, barely holding on. XD just purred a little and Dream’s eyes fell shut with a soft giggle.
HD took his own brother back, holding him close as 4K stood up. “So… Who lost?”
The three God stood in a somewhat circle with one another. “Obviously, Dream wins.” HD shrugged.
XD controlled his expression but he beamed with pride on the inside. “Sapnap lasted for five and a half minutes.” He reported.
“And little Georgie lasted half that. About 3 minutes.” 4K reported with a wide grin and a wild look to HD. “So that means…”
“What?! There’s no way George lost!” HD bristled, his hair running wild with shoothing stars. “You got him worked up before it!”
“We agreed teasing could be allowed!” 4K quickly defended himself. “It’s not my fault he got himself stuck in the spiders webs. Besides, can you say you didn’t work up Dream? Get him anticipated?”
“Well…fine. Maybe.” HD grumbled. “I caught Dream in the spinning halls. He was already dizzy.”
“Sapnap fell for the space in the walls.” XD added in. “He was trapped when I got him.”
“Hmm, not the place I thought he’d go.” 4K hummed thoughtfully. “But then it’s decided. George tapped out first and lost. Which means you lose Starlight~”
“Oh shut up.” HD snapped, but a blush crossed his cheeks. Even XD, while excited, felt a pang of sympathy for the Overworld God. 4K’s teasing words ran over his skin, making XD feel like he was being teased himself. “We can’t deal with that now. We have to get these three to bed.”
“But soon though~” 4K giggled. “You can’t hide behind them for long~”
“Shush! Let’s get home.”
---
Dream woke up cocooned in warmth and groggy from the deep sleep. His skin felt tingly and giggles bubbled in his tummy, making him feel soft and squirmy. He tried to stretch and found he wasn’t alone. George was pushed up against his chest, hugging around his waist and behind him Sapnap lay lounged out.
It took a few blinks before Dream realised they were in George’s cottage. The three were laid on the floor of the main room, with blankets and pillows placed under them and another blanket on top of them. Dream tried to look around, and saw XD was behind him, pulling another blanket up.
“Go back to sleep.” XD spoke, their voice just a whisper. “You must be tired.”
“Mmm’not…” Dream tried to speak but his mouth felt like it was full of cotton and his throat scratchy. Exhaustion also swept through him as soon as the words left and his eyes drooped.
“Sure…” XD chuckled and tucked another blanket under Dream’s chin.
“What happened…?” Dream sighed. He remembered running through the spinning tunnel and being caught by HD. He was tickled but details of it were sketchy and came in spurts. It all went fuzzy after the fangs touched on his hips.
“You won.” XD smiled proudly. “You lasted the longest. George tapped out first.”
A surge of pride swelled in Dream’s chest, but he was too tired to really celebrate. “What does that mean? Is there a forfeit?”
“That will be later.” XD waved off, but he had a knowing smile. “You need sleep.”
“Don’t I get something?” Dream asked while fighting off a yawn as XD’s hand pat through his hair. “I won.”
XD hummed thoughtfully. “I’ll think of something for you.” He finally said. “But for now. Sleep.”
Dream opened his mouth to speak again, but XD settled behind him. His chest pressed against Dream’s back and he started purring. Then it was a losing battle with sleep. His muscles relaxed and his eyes closed again, his lids too heavy to open. Dream fell asleep surrounded by love, and dreamt of bliss.

HECK 🥺😭💞 SO CUTE 🥺😭
uh okay maybe 42 with lee!george ler!dream?
or lee!dreamXD, whichever 🥺
This one just felt SO perfect for dream and george askdjfhlkahjf
------------------
George jolted a bit when he felt someone's hands suddenly rest on his sides. He had actually sat down to edit for once, but left his door open in case either Dream or Sapnap wanted to hang out in his room as he worked.
"If you laugh, you lose," He heard Dream's voice behind him, telling him whose hands it was that had grabbed him. The current scene on his computer from his video was forgotten now as he went to turn to look at the man behind him.
"Dream what-" Before he had even gotten a chance to look at him, Dream suddenly began tickling George's sides. Was he seriously that bored?! George yelped and fell into laughter before he could even stop himself, Dream's statement before making a bit more sense now.
"Literally what did I just say George," Dream said with an exaggerated sigh as he sped up a bit, George's laughter growing in response.
So much for finishing the video today.

Relaxing with the Gods: Blob Dolls
DreamXD wants to show of his wonderful creation and gifts to GeorgeHD and Sapnap4K. Blob dolls crafted to look like them. He's just forgot to tell them that when the dolls are tickled, so are they.
Surprise fic, sorry. I spent two days saying to myself 'I wish I could write this' before realising I could. Also another into the Relaxing with the Gods series.
It's a short one but I hope you enjoy~
---
“There’s no way you made these! These are amazing!”
“I didn’t know you liked to craft things. They’re adorable, XD.”
DreamXD sat in GeorgeHD’s space in the Godly Realm, his chest puffed out and a proud smile over his lips as the two older Gods, GeorgeHD and Sapnap4K were looking over his creations and praising him.
It had taken a while for XD to make a blob doll of the two Gods. It was the first time he’d taken so long to craft a doll. He wanted it perfect to show off for his friends and it seemed he had made it so.
4K held the doll in his hand, keeping it carefully between his fingers. XD had made the God’s dolls slightly bigger than the ones he made for Dream or George, but they still looked tiny in 4K’s hands. 4K’s blob had two horns on the top of his head and a tail behind it. The Nether God was admiring the tail of the doll and grinning wildly.
HD’s doll was harder to design but XD thought he made it work, and from HD’s smile and coos it seemed he had. The two dot eyes on the doll were different colours, a yellow and a slightly off-white to match HD’s own. While the body was still all white, a few catches of the light would make the doll shimmer, similar to HD’s skin and his starry hair.
“I can’t believe you never told us you made dolls as a hobby.” HD commented. He was turning the doll in his hand, watching it shimmer and smiling as it did.
“Well… I don’t know about a hobby.” XD shrugged. “I do it on and off really.”
“You should make more! Look at these little guys.” 4K cooed. His finger was lifting the tail of the doll. “You even got my little fluffy tail end.”
“They’re very soft too.” HD added. While he held the doll in one hand, his other felt over the material of the doll. “What did you make them-”
HD’s words ended suddenly, like they caught in his throat with a gasp, and one of XD’s eyes focused over on him.
The doll was still held in HD’s hand, their other hand poised by the doll’s side. The God made slight twitch, as though something unexpected brushed along his side. XD had to bite his lip to hold back his smile. “What happened, HD?” He controlled his voice enough to ask.
“N-Nothing…” HD replied slowly. Their voice held just a little bit of a tell. A small breathy laugh under their words.
XD couldn’t hold back their smile. It worked.
“What’s wrong with you?” 4K raised his eyebrow, but while his focus was on HD, his finger was absent-mindedly making curls with the tail of his doll. He’d gotten to the end of the tail, attached to the doll, and his claw just caught onto the doll and swiped down the tail.
4K definitely felt it. XD could see the shiver travel up his spine, and his black tail whipped out behind him like it was trying to flick something away. He seemed to pause, unsure what had just happened but then his eyes widened.
“Did you get tickled?!” He asked HD excitedly.
“NO!” The older God snapped back. “It wasn’t…” He stopped mid-sentence and turned to XD, who just couldn’t keep the smile off his face. “XD. How did you-?”
HD’s words were cut off as he was tackled to the ground. For a big guy, 4K moved surprisingly fast. He was on top of HD in seconds and wrestling the doll out of the older God’s hands.
“NO!” HD screeched. “Get off me! STOP!”
In all of HD’s fairness he was doing well to keep it from 4K’s grasp, but all it took was one well placed jab right in HD’s outstretched ribs and the arm that held the doll fell easily into 4K’s hands.
As quick as 4K jumped him, he just as quickly jumped back, holding the doll in triumph for just a moment before he started tickling into the dolls side.
If XD had any doubt the dolls were working, now it was confirmed. HD switched from near lunging to 4K to crumbling on the ground, curling up and pleading through his sudden laughter.
“OHOHOHOHO GOHOHOHODS! F-F-FuhuhuHUHUHUCK! F-Fohohour KAAAAAHAHAY! S-S...STOHOHOHOP!”
“No way! It tickles you! XD actually made a doll that tickles people! No chance!” 4K almost bounced with his words. His tail wagged furiously as his claws skittered around the doll’s body, and he squealed with delight seeing HD react. The starry haired God twisted and turned as though the claws were on his own skin. His hands grasped at his sides, his ribs and his stomach but it could not stop the ghost tickles all over him.
HD had no rest from the onslaught of tickles from his poor doll. Finally 4K gave him a break, but only for a second as he stopped tickling the doll’s side and ran his claw over the bottom of it. The laughter became a high screech that fizzled out into little giggles. He curled his legs into himself, his hands trying to desperately cover over his feet for what little help it would do.
“Yohohou...stohohOHOP! Leave-Leave my fehehehehet alohohohone! EEP! G-Gehehet yohohour tahahail AWAY!”
Along with the claws skittering over the bottom of the doll, 4K brought his tail up and it’s fluffy end flicked over the doll’s side. “Do you feel my tail on your ribs? Or your sides?” 4K cooed. “While my nails tick-tick-tickle your feet.”
“S-SohoHOHOhop! Y-YoHoHOhOHOU!”
The tickling along his feet and the soft tickles were not enough keep HD helpless. While still kicking his feet and rubbing along his sides, an ephemeral hand popped up beside 4K. He was far too focused in tickling the doll and couldn’t stop the hand before it jabbed into his side and made a tickly beeline right for his ribs.
“NO!” 4K arched his back and turned and wriggled but the hand kept on it’s journey. It worked the Nether God down onto his side as it make it’s way for the ribs. 4K abandoned the doll to grab at the hand, or at least bat it away. Right as XD hoped.
When 4K jumped for HD’s doll he’d abandoned his own in his excitement, and XD quickly snatched it up and hid it away. Now HD’s doll was in his grasp as well.
The older Gods took a moment of calm, and to take in their situation. With the tickling stopped, HD called off the hand attacking 4K and both looked at each other with the same thought of ‘Who has the dolls?’ before looking over to XD. He now had both dolls in his hand. 4K in his right and HD in his left.
“X...XD…” HD’s voice came out carefully, like he was dealing with a dangerous wild animal.
“Don’t get any ideas…” 4K added.
Out the corner of XD’s vision he could see 4K tense, ready to pounce and he quickly struck first. His hands holding the dolls kneaded into their sides and his other hand tickled over the front of the dolls.
Both Gods were immediately floored.
“EHEX DEHEHEHE!” HD wheezed. He curled up and held onto his sides. “Whihihiy mehehehe agahahain!”
“Yohohohour dehehead, B-Blohohondie!” 4K tittered out between his giggles. He had fought the tickles more than HD had and XD worried he would reach him, but he crawled forward just a bit before falling and succumbing to the laughter. “Whehehen yohou stohohohop...yohohohour dehehead.”
Maybe he was. In fact, he definitely was. XD never doubted 4K’s taste for revenge, but he could fully say this was worth it, seeing the two Gods helplessly laughing and wiggling around to try and stop the ghostly tickles they were powerless to. Yes, this revenge just might kill him, but he’d revel in this moment for as long as he could.

The God Under the Blossoms
GeorgeHD has a peaceful life as the God of the Overworld. He is with the love of his life and God of the Nether, Sapnap4k, and the two can raise their younger brothers, George and Sapnap in peace. But during a day out, the Gods and their siblings stumble upon another Realm God...and another sibling.
My new AU to do with the Dream Team and their God siblings is here!
A few details are still unknown for this AU for now, but a quick backstory is after "something" happened, HD and 4K were blessed to be Realm Gods and they stayed in contact. They both confessed their feelings early and became husbands. HD and 4K were given their brothers on the same day and have been raising them together ever since. So the AU will focus on just daily life stuff but there will be "lore".
The Dream Team are all the same age because I just can't math so they are about 4 years old in this fic. This fic does have a lot of lore, but there are tickle moments between it so hopefully people can still enjoy it.
This fic will also be tagged as "GodSiblingAU" just for ease rn. I understand that's confusing but if I think of another name for it I'll change it in the future.
Enjoy~
---
It was a perfect day on the Overworld. The sun was high and warm and the air was gentle and cool. It was predicted to be warm until the evening, then rain would start. GeorgeHD couldn’t think of a more perfect ending. A warm day in the sun to then be lulled to sleep by the soft patters of rain. A very perfect day.
But what made the day so perfect for HD was the fact he could spend it lounging in the arms of his true love.
Sapnap4K was a God blessed with a tall, built body and his arms were always open for HD to fall into. Which is how HD found himself this morning.
While the brothers, George and Sapnap, played out in the meadow, HD and 4K lounged at the top of the hills, watching over them. HD had started on 4K’s lap, and now he was laid over the Nether God’s chest and using his bicep as a pillow. He had absolutely dozed off a few times to the sound of their brothers laughter and 4K playing with his hair. But just when he really settled in for a nap, he felt a poke at his cheek which roused him.
It was a small tap of a claw on his cheek, but it was enough to get him to peek open his eye and look up to 4K. Smiling down on him.
“I think you’ve napped long enough.” 4K said. His voice was warm in HD’s ears and his chest rumbled with his words. All these things did not help wake HD up any more.
HD stretched himself out, taking up more space of 4K’s lap, before settling back down over his bicep once again. “I can decided when I’ve napped enough, thank you.”
“Oh can you?”
HD had shut his eyes again, but he could hear 4K’s smirk and the poking claw returned, except it targetted on HD’s side. It wasn’t enough of to draw out a big reaction, but it was enough to make HD squeak, and try to cosy himself in further to 4K’s arm.
“Dohoooon’t…”
“Come on. You said you wanted to take a walk to the cherry biome.” 4K’s voice turned soft instead of teasing. The hand returned to HD’s side, but it was laid out flat instead of trying to poke. His fingers stretched and rubbed soothingly over HD’s stomach and sides. “The boys want to go too.”
While HD was always alert to 4K’s voice had more of a lulling effect than coaxing. “The boys are happily looking for the largest stick they can find right now.” HD was confident they were right, but they peeked their eye open ever so slightly just to check. Sure enough George was trying to pull a stick out from under a bush while Sapnap was trying to pull the entire bush from the ground.
“Well I want to go.” 4K almost huffed. HD gave a look up, making sure 4K was still giving his overdramatic pout, and wasn’t actually upset. When he’d confirmed it was a pout, he settled again.
“I just want to nap for five more minutes.” HD sighed as he nuzzled against 4K’s bicep. “Then we’ll head out to the biome when the boys are ready. Promise.”
4K scoffed. “I think you just want to have an excuse to use my bicep as a pillow.”
“Prime gifted you with perfect biceps. It would be a sin to waste them.”
4K scoffed again and HD waited for the smart reply but it never came. After nothing for another minute, they relaxed again. The focused onto the sound of the rustling leaves and grass as their mind stilled and settled. Then, just on the brink of sleep, another prod into their side.
HD wiggled slightly, giving a look up to 4K. The Nether God was happily watching George and Sapnap play. After a moment HD settled again. Perhaps 4K’s hand just twitched without thinking. HD settled back in, letting the moment pass but then another poke came to his side. And this time the offending finger wiggled.
He was past the point of believe it was a mistake. HD wiggled while trying to keep his voice in a warning tone, but the giggles didn’t help him sound serious. “F-Fohour Kahahahay…!”
“Yes, my love?” 4K was keeping his voice calm, but his wide grin betrayed him.
“Yohoho’re tihickling!”
The fingers had stopped kneading into his sides, now they were skittering and poking up and down his sides and hips. Even his other hand joined in on the other side so HD’s giggles quickly turned into laughs. “4K!”
“I’m not tickling you.” 4K said so innocently while he loomed above the tickled God. “But you happen to be laying on a tickle bed.”
“Nohoho Ihi’m nohohot!” HD tried to pull himself up, but as well as tickling, 4K held him down and any slight freedom he got HD was immediately pulled back down. “Stohohohop!”
“You must have fallen asleep on the tickle monsters bed!” 4K gasped. “And the tickle monster always punishes those who fall asleep in his bed!”
“Nohohoho hehe d-dohoesn’t!” HD’s reasoning ended with a yelp, as 4K’s fingers went back to focusing in on his hips. His hips weren’t his most ticklish spot, but being so close to his sides put him overly on edge. And 4K was skilled at faking out going for his spots. “Plehehease!”
“What are you doing?”
HD opened his eyes, his cheeks blushing furiously as he saw George and Sapnap making their way towards their brothers. He opened his mouth to respond, but all that came out was a surprising squeak when 4K tweaked his ribs.
“HD fell asleep on the tickle monsters bed.” 4K answered. His fingers still continued their tickling, now getting to skitter over HD’s stomach as the God tried to turn on his side more and curl up. “And he’s been caught!”
The boys eyes widened with an overdramatic gasp from Sapnap. “He tried to nap!” He called out.
The realisation made George gasp as well, though HD could barely focus on where the conversation was going as his hips were mercilessly tickled.
“Stohohohp!”
“You said we’re going to the cherry trees!” George pointed accusingly.
“Wehehe ahahahre-EEK! FOHOUR KAHAY!”
4K went right for his sides then, buzzing right into them as he was distracted and then when he brought his arms down to protect them, 4K went right back to his hips.
“He needs to be tickled awake.” 4K playfully growled at the two kids. “And the tickle monster needs the little monsters help!”
The boys expressions went from accusing to mischievous and they leapt at the opportunity. Literally jumping into 4K’s lap with HD to get at him.
“NO! Dohon’t yohou dahahare! I am awake! I ahahaham!” HD tried a mix of threats and pleading until 4K moved his hands up.
The Nether God lifted HD’s arms up off his sides, taking advantage to tickle his armpits as well, and stretching him out nicely for Sapnap and George to get at his sides, which they did immediately.
George was on his left and Sapnap on his right, their little hands squeezing, skittering and fluttering all up and down his most sensitive spot. Merciless. George and Sapnap had no want for anticipation or build up, they wanted to get at the worst spots right away and Prime sake they really went for it.
HD shrieked as he wiggled. His body was screaming to struggle and fight with everything he had but he was cautious of his brother and Sapnap being so close and didn’t want to hurt them. Being tortured in his worst spot and not being able to move from consequence just made the torture worse. His skin prickled with his over sensitive nerves and he begged.
“OHOHOHOKAHAHAY! WE-WEHEHE CAHAN GOHOHOHO! WE CAN GO! JUHUHUST STOHOHOHOHOHOP!”
4K stopped right away. He lowered his hands, grabbing at George and Sapnap’s to get them to stop while HD curled up as tightly as he could and sucked in air like he’d been on the verge of suffocating.
“He’s trying to sleep again!” Sapnap accused again before looking up as 4K chuckled.
“No, he’s just catching his breath.” 4K said, one hand patting over HD’s back. “But hopefully he’s learned a valuable lesson about taking the tickle monster's bed.”
HD cursed so softly under his breath only 4K could hear it with a twitch of his ear. His smirk widened as George partially climbed over HD’s back.
“What did you say?” He demanded.
“I said, let’s go.” HD lied, catching majority of his breath. He called forth one of his helper hands, an almost opalescent looking white hand that materialised from nothing, that grabbed the back of George’s overalls and lifted him off. The little brunette squeaked and giggled to the lift, as HD turned on his front and pushed himself up.
“The cherry biome isn’t far. We can walk.” 4K suggested casually, and grinned when HD glared.
“Absolutely not.” HD huffed. When he’s sorted himself out mostly, the ephemeral hand dropped George into his arms and disappeared into white mist. “Teleport. Now.”
It was tempting to tease HD more, but Sapnap and George were growing restless, both of them vocally voting for the teleport option. With a sigh, 4K relented and stood up with Sapnap in his arms after HD. In a split second, all four of them were gone from the meadow and appeared in the midsts of a cherry grove.
The biome was located on a small mountain structure, though it was thankfully free from any sudden cliff drops. Since it was higher than their meadow it was colder, and windier but that just made the pink trees sway more and more of their petals danced through the air. The lime green grass was littered with fallen petals and small pink flowers.
George and Sapnap were enchanted and then suddenly energised, squirming out of HD and 4K’s arms to run off.
“Let’s see who can catch the most petals out of the air!” Sapnap challenged, already grabbing a few mid run.
“Don’t wander off too far! Stay where we can see you!” 4K called after them and while the two shouted back a ‘yes’ they were already lost in their own game.
“Are you happy now?” HD grumbled. “We are here.”
“I am very happy.” 4K beamed. He curled his arm around HD’s waist, pulling him in close to his side and purred in his ear. Even though HD tried to keep his grumpy pout, he couldn’t resist the smile pulling at his lips. “I get to take a walk with my perfect husband through the cherry grove.”
“You’re such a sap.” HD tried to play it off, act like the purring and words weren’t getting to him. It was impossible to act since near everything 4K did made HD’s heart leap.
“Aaaand…” 4K carried on. “After the walk we can all take a nice nap under the cherry blossom trees.”
That did sound nice, despite how much HD wanted to scoff. Cuddled with their love while the pink petals rained upon them both was a picturesque sight. “I suppose that sounds nice…” HD replied coolly, but the grin over 4K’s face told him he wasn’t buying it. HD wanted to kiss that stupid grin off his face, but just as he grabbed 4K’s chin to pull him in a chilling sound pulled them apart.
George and Sapnap had screamed. Not like the scream of them playing they were so used to hearing, but as though something terrible had jumped out at them and they screamed in terror.
Immediately the Gods pulled apart and rushed to their brother’s sides. They were far, but kept in sight as they promised and the Gods crossed the distance in less than a second.
“What happened?!” HD grabbed George as soon as he could and lifted him into HD’s arms. He looked fine, at least not hurt, but his eyes were teary and HD’s helper hands appeared to worry over him.
“There-there’s someone here!” George sniffled, his voice high pitched and wobbly.
It was common that others would come across the Gods and their brothers during the day. It was never a problem as they were well known so it was either a friendly greeting or people giving them space to carry on. But this was clearly not that.
“Who?!” 4K asked, already picking up Sapnap. He was teary eyed as well and buried his face into 4K’s neck. “Where are they now?”
The boys didn’t need to answer that one. They were stood in front of a small cherry blossom tree, with a thin trunk and branches it looked more like a bush. And from that bush something leapt out.
It leapt back from the bush, putting as much distance as it could between them and the Gods. It was a somewhat humanoid shape, and covered in green, but those were the only details HD could make out as it tried to sprint off.
“Hey!”
George was quickly handed off to 4K as HD pursued the stranger. They had already crossed a large distance of the biome, but now they quickly went for the edge of the mountain to jump down to the forest below.
HD was faster, able to close the distance between them quickly just as the stranger got to the edge of the grass. However, before they had a chance to jump, HD formed a cobblestone wall in front of the stranger and partly curved it around them.
They stopped just before they smacked into the wall. Their arms braced on the walls, feeling around it desperately before they turned around and saw HD.
It was not a mortal, as HD had suspected. No human could have been that fast. HD could feel it was someone powerful and he concluded it must be another God. Gods were common to meet for them as well, but HD had never seen this one before. They were tall, taller than HD but probably not reaching 4K’s height. They had pale blonde hair, a little frayed and messy, and their eyes were covered in bandages crossed over one another. They had a large green cloak on, though it was ripped on one side, showing the God had four sets of arms. The top two were braced onto the wall behind them, and the other two huddled under the cloak.
If the God had meant to hurt them he was certainly in no condition for a fight. Still, HD kept his guard up as he approached. He left a wide enough space between them so the God wasn’t crowded in or cornered and before he could speak, the God opened his mouth first.
“I-I don’t want trouble. I did not mean to...just let me leave, please!”
His voice sounded desperate and doubled, like there was a second voice repeating the words but in an almost growl. Similar to an effect HD and 4K had with their own voices.
HD wanted to remain calm, but his eyes kept looking to XD’s lower arms huddled in the half of his cloak not ripped. They were curled, like they were holding something and HD couldn’t risk it. “What’s in your cloak?” He asked, keeping his voice calm but firm.
A weapon would have no effect on him, but if this stranger was dangerous and had anything that could threaten the boys, HD had to be ready.
The God contemplated his choices. HD could see he was looking between his arms and HD with a twitch of his head. Then he seemed to look around, as though trying to find a way out. HD was about to ask again when the God relented and they slowly opened their cloak.
It was a boy in the God’s arms. He could have been no older than George or Sapnap and he was the near spitting image of the stranger, with blonde hair and a matching black jumpsuit. But the boy only had two arms and one of them was horribly burnt.
HD’s suspicion fell to sympathy 0and he looked back up to the God. “Is he your brother?” He asked calmed. The stranger tensed to the question and HD slowly raised his hands to show he meant no harm. “What is your names?” HD asked.
The God hesitated before answering. “D-DreamXD...this is Dream.”
Of course! HD felt so stupid he hadn’t realised it before. While he knew the stranger was clearly another God there were only few who felt that strong. HD should have known it was the God of the End. The illusive DreamXD who never left or invited anyone to his realm.
“P-Please. We are sorry. Just let us go and you will never see us again!” XD pleaded.
It was becoming clear there was some misunderstand somewhere. George and Sapnap had clearly been spooked by XD, but it was nothing malicious.
“I think there’s been a misunderstanding here.” HD spoke calmly and slowly put his hands down. As he did he lowered himself down to kneel on the ground, trying to keep himself as less threatening as he could. “You have nothing to be sorry for.”
He watched for any sign of XD relaxing, but it never came. Tried as he might his eyes also kept wandering back to Dream and his burnt arm.
The boy stared with wide green eyes at HD under the shadow of the cloak. He was clung to XD’s side and held up by the God’s lower arms. Well...one of his arms clung to XD. His left arm was limp by his side, and twitched every once in a while. From the back of his hand to just below his shoulder, the skin was purple and burnt and while he never took his eyes off HD, he’d wince every once in a while to the twitching of his arm. The burn seemed new, and still painful.
HD’s attention turned back to XD who pressed himself further back into the wall as HD heard the shuffling approach behind him. He quickly turned his head to see 4K walking closer with George and Sapnap in his arms.
“Is everything okay?” 4K asked, looking from HD to XD. “What’s going...oh!” His eyes saw Dream, and widened with realisation. “He’s…”
“We’re fine here, everything is fine.” HD soothed. He turned back to XD, thankful he hadn’t bolted and then looked back to 4K. “We’re just talking.”
“Just let us leave and we won’t trouble you!” XD pleaded.
“There’s no trouble.” HD quickly soothed and turned back. “We just want to know what happened.”
“We saw him!” George said excitedly. HD looked back to see he was pointing at Dream. “We saw him in the bush. Then the man took him away.”
The events were starting to make a little bit more sense in HD’s head, clicking together slowly but at least they were clicking together. George and Sapnap must have come upon the small tree and seen Dream. Either he had wandered off or he wasn’t mean to be so close to them, DreamXD had quickly grabbed Dream and tried to flee.
“I-I did not mean to scare them.” XD quickly defended. “Please.”
“No, no it’s fine. You did nothing wrong.” HD quickly soothed. “Listen. I can help you. Dream, was it? He’s hurt. I can heal him.”
It was the first time XD had relaxed, even just slightly. His expression faltered a little and he looked down at Dream in his arms. He looked less guarded and worried to just show a speck of concern and maybe hope.
“I’m GeorgeHD.” HD carried on. “I’m the God of the Overworld. The God behind me is Sapnap4K. He’s the God of the Nether. And those are our brothers, George and Sapnap.”
XD looked between them as they were introduced. His eyebrows drawing together slightly when he looked and George and Sapnap and HD could see slow realisation.
“I…” XD looked down at Dream again and then back up. “Can you...help him?”
Without wanting to seem too eager, HD nodded slowly. “Yes. I can heal that burn. Why don’t we heal Dream first, and then we can have a talk. Okay?”
XD did nothing for a long while. It was only a few seconds but the crawl of time felt so slow. The blonde God bit his lip before taking his attention off HD and down to the little Dream. He whispered something too soft for HD to really hear, but Dream shook his head to it and tired to bury himself further into the cloak. XD whispered something else and it took Dream a while before he pulled his head out of XD’s side. His green eyes were filled with tears but he didn’t try to hide again when XD looked back up to HD and spoke. “Please heal him. If-If you can.”
HD smiled. “Of course.”
HD found it easier to be calm and softer when he had to heal. He knew he could come off as brunt and distant even when he didn’t mean to, but when it came to a matter of well being, HD found it easy to slip into that soft role again.
He approached the two slowly, not getting off his knees, and he was thankful when XD knelt down and came just a bit forward to meet him. HD took in every details he could of XD. His face was young but his eyes completely covered in wraps. HD used to wear similar wraps over his eyes before he could control the shine they would give off. He wondered if it was something similar with XD but all his attention focused on Dream when XD unwrapped his cloak.
Instead of clinging to XD’s side, Dream now wrapped his one good arm around XD’s lower arm. His injured arm lay as limp as he could make it by his side, but even the slightest movement made Dream wince.
“This won’t hurt, okay?” HD spoke to both brothers but he smiled at Dream. Dream just watched him with a blank expression that was broken up every once in a while by a flash of pain or to look up pleading to XD.
HD had prepared himself for a panic and struggle but he was surprised and thankful when Dream remained calm. He watched HD’s hand approach him like a hawk, his eyes getting bigger and bigger as it approached, but he never cried or tried to run even as the hand was just an inch over his burnt skin.
As HD suspected the burn was infused with some sort of magic, but it was nothing he couldn’t heal. He started at the top, just under Dream’s shoulder and watched his own palms glow ever so slightly. The burnt skin under his hand slowly started to mend, and more and more disappeared as HD slowly worked his hands down. He was careful not to move too fast and make sure his magic kept Dream from feeling any pain. He could see it working, as the fear in Dream’s eyes slowly melted away with the pain and then turned to wonder as he watched HD heal him.
When the last burn on the back of Dream’s hand was healed, HD pulled back his hand. “See? All better.”
Dream quickly pulled his arm up, inspecting the skin with awe as XD was as well. The blonde God looked back up to HD, the guarded expression dropped to gratitude...and exhaustion.
“Thank you! Thank you so much!”
There was a thousand questions HD had, but XD didn’t look up for answering anything. Dream didn’t either. They were both tired. Their hair and clothes a mess, matted or torn. The End realm was closed off from everyone for years. Even Gods could not go in. Something had to have happened to cause XD and Dream to flee to the Overworld, but HD felt it was cruel to ask.
Instead, he slowly lifted himself up off the ground. XD slowly followed his lead, still holding Dream close to his chest.
“Listen. I don’t know what’s happened but...are you...trying to live in the Overworld now?”
HD wasn’t sure how to phrase the question delicately, but it was clearly wrong since XD’s expression went to worry again.
“We-We would not be a bother. We will go as far away from you as we can, you won’t even know we are here!” XD quickly babbled and HD felt guilty.
“No, no. That’s now what I meant.” HD quickly soothed. “I didn’t mean it like that. I just meant… I’m trying to…”
“What HD is trying to say,” 4K voice suddenly spoke up, and HD looked back to see the Nether God had came right behind him. He was no longer holding George and Sapnap, they instead hid behind his legs and looked up to the new God and brother. “Is that it’s no trouble if you want to stay in the Overworld. You are welcome.”
HD gave a small sigh of relief, thankful 4K could convey his words better. XD made a similar sigh. His shoulders relaxed, no longer tense and he gave his first smile. “That...th-thank you.”
“But,” HD continued, determined to find the words. “If you don’t mind me asking. How long have you been here?”
XD looked worried, but not as scared as he had before. It probably helped that HD lowered the cobblestone wall behind him. “A… A few days I think…”
“Four days.” Dream’s small voice whispered. The way he clung so close to XD’s chest and turned away from the others meant the whisper was only for XD, but HD’s ears twitched and picked it up.
“Do you have a home? Or shelter set up?”
HD could see the answer immediately. Neither looked like they’d been sleeping easy. XD looked away, almost ashamed. “I… I can’t… We can’t craft...here…”
HD’s heart lurched, thinking of Dream with his arm burnt and in pain, living rough in the wild. Clearly it effected XD as well. Sleep was not needed for Gods as it was for mortals, but they still needed rest and still showed the signs of fatigue. XD looked like he hadn’t slept for a week.
“Listen, I’m sorry your first few days on the Overworld haven’t been good for you two. But, just so you two can rest easy for tonight, I’d like to invite you to stay with us.”
The offer settled uneasily with XD. He kept looking away, but he also would look to Dream and something in his voice told HD that he was considering it for his brother’s sake. “I… We would not want to intrude…”
“You wouldn’t be intruding at all.” HD quickly soothed. “We have more than enough space and if you don’t want to I can give you the ability to craft here and you can go and make a home for yourself and Dream. But if you just wanted to rest for the day and start fresh tomorrow, we’d more than welcome you.”
XD paused for a long while, and HD was just the little bit hopeful that they’d agree. After a moment of silence, XD spoke. “I would like to discuss it with Dream.”
HD nodded. “Of course. Please do.”
HD and 4K gathered their brothers and let the End God and kin have a moment alone. HD kept them in his vision still, making sure they didn’t run off though he promised himself he would not chase after them. If XD and Dream wanted to remain alone, he couldn’t force otherwise.
“If he bolts off again, we can catch him.” 4K lightly bumped his shoulder into HD’s, snapping him out of his somewhat daze. The Nether God’s voice was in half joking, though when HD looked up 4K almost looked serious.
HD felt a little guilty. “I’m sorry I offered them to stay without talking to you first.”
“Hey, don’t apologise.” 4K shrugged. “If you weren’t going to offer, I certainly was.”
“Are they coming home with us?” Sapnap asked, pulling himself up from 4K’s arms till he was practically climbing up over his brother’s shoulder.
“Hopefully.” HD wished, and as he glanced over to XD just to make sure he was still there, the End God was approaching the group again.
Dream had retreated back into the cloak, but he was now held up by XD’s upper arms and clung into XD’s chest. “If the offer still stands, we would be happy to take you up on it.” XD spoke slowly.
HD controlled his reaction, trying not to be too excited. Instead he just nodded. “Of course! Please, join us.”
A thin mist crawled through the cherry tree biome, eventually forming into a cloud that took the shape of a large door. It open up to a wide, grand room. The walls a soft looking blue, looking like they were made of clouds themselves. Stars twinkled down and disappeared from the floor above and a large spiral staircase lay at the back of the room.
4K took George and Sapnap with him to another room down one of the hallways, despite George and Sapnap’s protests. It was easier for HD to show them around without an audience and XD clearly relaxed more when it was just himself, Dream and HD.
HD watched carefully as XD followed him up the spiral staircase. He took careful, unsure steps. Wispy clouds softly fell over the steps and once XD saw they were harmless he followed more easily.
The upper levels of the palace were a dark blue, like clouds on a night sky. Golden sparkles shimmered through the walls like stars in the distance, and Dream seem intrigued, peeking his head out to watch them before realise HD was watching him and shuffling back in.
There were many empty rooms just waiting to be used in the palace. There was one just a couple doors down from HD’s room and with a quick thought it was morphed into a bedroom, filled with standard furniture. A wide bed on one side of the room, with soft fluffy pillows and sheets. In the middle of the room was a set of comfy chairs and a table beside a dresser, and off to the side there was a separate wash room with a bath almost as big as the bed.
“You should have everything you need.” HD explained while giving a quick tour of the room. “But if you need anything more, my room is down the hall and I will find you if you call on me.”
HD knew he was babbling and he could only hope he wasn’t coming on too strong but XD looked far more relaxed than he ever had, and he smiled warmly. “This is fine. More than fine.” He quickly assured HD. “Thank you.”
HD was eased seeing the God smile for once. He wanted to offer anything to the two of them at that moment, but instead he nodded and quickly left to return to the others.
4K had taken the boys to the playroom, which was a perfect distraction for them. George and Sapnap were attempting a floor jigsaw, but that was quickly abandoned when they saw HD walk in and they rushed over demanding answers.
“Are they staying?!” “Where are they now?!” “Do we have a new friend?!” “Can we see them?!”
“Calm down.” HD tried to settle them. It was easier when 4K came over and took Sapnap in his arms, and George was calmed when HD gave him a bit of his robe to rub between his fingers.
“They are settling into their room just now, and they are not to be disturbed.” HE warned, getting a chorus of ‘aww” from the two.
“Yous almost scared them off before, you want that again?” 4K half joked.
The two gave grumbled responses defending themselves but it raised and interesting point.
“What actually happened?” HD asked as he sat down on one of the many beanbags around the room. 4K follow to sit in the one beside him, letting Sapnap crawl all over his arm. “In the cherry biome. Did you see Dream first?”
“Yes!” Sapnap nodded, almost jumping out of 4K’s arms. Luckily the Nether God was an expert in catching his brother. “We were looking in the tree for the biggest stick! The boy was behind the leaves!”
“He jumped when he saw us. Then the man quickly grabbed him and ran off.” George finished.
HD put the timeline of events in his head together. “So you two screamed then? He scared you?” HD asked.
“We didn’t scream!” George defended his tiny pride, his face burning red. “He didn’t scare us!”
HD and 4K gave each other a look, remembering the tears and scream they both heard that kicked them both into brother mode.
“Was Dream okay?” Sapnap asked softly.
HD decided it was best to keep details of the injury vauge. He didn’t know how much the two saw but he wasn’t going to say anything more than needed. “He was a little hurt but he’s alright now.” He assured Sapnap.
“Will we see them today?” George asked, his eyes almost wide with hope.
“Only if they want to.” HD calmly explained. “Until then, we’ll give them their space.”
The boys were upset, and even more upset when they couldn’t go back to the cherry biome for the day. 4K quickly distracted them with a treasure hunting game, which they started begrudgingly but then started getting into it. Especially when 4K promised a prize for whoever wins.
As the boys played HD quietly offered to 4K that HD could stay in the palace, being available for XD and Dream, and 4K could have taken the boys back to the biome but 4K refused, citing he wanted to be there for support to HD. While HD called him sappy, he had to remind himself to thank 4K properly later.
Despite HD remaining hyper alert, XD and Dream did not leave their rooms for the rest of the night. The sky outside dipped to a lilac as the clouds started to burn a sunset orange. The walls of the palace reflected the change and when it became night, the whole place was a dark blue with stars shimmering through.
George and Sapnap claimed they weren’t tired while almost falling asleep in HD’s arms. They had asked to both sleep in George’s room, where they had already made a pillow fort and the Gods let them settle in for their sleepover while they retreated to HD’s room.
It was exactly the type of room HD was suited to have. The bed took up majority of the space, with sheets that looked like rolling night clouds that hung over the bed’s edge. There were golden stars and phases of the moon hanging from the ceiling, between the hanging blue fabrics and netting. The moons bathed the room in a soft silver glow, and made everything calm.
HD could have melted into the bed as soon as they lay down, but they refused to allow themselves that calmness. Though it was much harder to fight off when 4K was kissing their cheek and cuddling in close to their side.
“You did a good thing giving them a place to stay.” 4K’s voice was soft and purred the right way to make HD weak. They wanted nothing more than to curl up into 4K’s arms, but the nagging worry of their visitors needing them kept them up.
“It was the right thing to do.” HD shrugged. Partly to play off his good deed and another part to stop 4K’s kisses. “But I also think maybe… I’m making up for something, in a way?”
4K pulled back ever so slightly, propping himself up with his arm. “What do you mean?”
“I just…” HD searched for the right words. It was a growing thought he’d had ever since he’d realised who XD was. “I feel like… When we were given George and Sapnap I thought it was because we were...connected? I just thought we were somehow blessed. But then XD also has Dream, and it’s no coincidence since they’re a realm God too. So we were all given brothers, but because we never knew XD we didn’t know.”
“You think it means something?”
“It has to, right? We checked when we got the boys, no other Gods got any siblings. It’s only us Realm Gods. So we were given these brothers for some reason. And while we had each other to help with it, XD was alone.”
“We’re not to blame for that.” 4K quickly defended, though his tone was more in assurance than defensive. “He closed off the End to others, even we couldn’t get in. And before that Prime didn’t want us meeting XD.”
“I know...but it still doesn’t sit right.”
But there was nothing HD could do about it now. He could try and offer support to XD if he decided to stay, but that would be up to the End God.
“You need sleep.”
4K poked HD’s nose, pulling him out of his thoughts. He blinked, looking over to 4K who was settling over the bed again and he remembered his resolve to stay awake.
“You sleep. I want to stay up in case XD needs me.”
“If he calls, or even moves an in inch out of his room, you would know.” 4K quickly replied, as though he was waiting for this. Of course 4K would know HD’s plan. He knew HD’s thoughts before the Overworld God even knew them sometimes. “And you are stressed, starlight. You need sleep.”
HD was never one to turn down sleep, but he kept to his guns, and shook his head. “I will be fine. You sleep.”
4K sighed through his nose as he shuffled himself just a little closer. His arms wrapped around HD’s waist and he settled in like he was going to sleep.
But of course he wasn’t. HD absolutely knew he wasn’t. He kept on edge when he felt 4K’s hands slide around his sides, and while it took a little longer than he thought, he felt the first skitter of claws against his side and making him squeal and jump but he was held down in 4K’s arms.
“Fohour Kahay…” HD warned. His voice wasn’t as stern as he would have liked but he was proud he only had some giggles in his voice.
4K’s eyes were closed with a stupid small smile on his face, but he gave a low him, showing he was listening.
“Stohop tihickling…”
“Hmm…” 4K hummed again. His eyes still closed as he spoke. “I don’t know who this ‘4K’ is. I’m the tickle monster. And you are in the tickle monster’s bed.” 4K’s fingers trailed up, over to HD’s ribs where they stayed. HD tried to grab at 4K’s wrists but it was a futile attempt. “And if you’re in the tickle monster’s bed, you must want tickled to sleep.”
His thumbs just pushed in ever so slightly, kneading over his lower ribs. It didn’t tickle as much as his sides and 4K knew it. He knew every spot over HD’s body. He knew the spots to make him scream, the spots that worked him up into a frenzy and the spots that made him melt.
On cue, HD melted. He gave a low whine, breathy little giggles pouring from his lips and he tried fruitlessly to struggle. It was more like a kitten wiggling with his strength. His bones felt like mush and refused to listen to him. 4K may have been right. He was stressed and tired, but he wasn’t letting 4K win so easily.
“Y-Yohou tickled mehehe awahake earlier whehen I was ohon yohour bed. N-Nohow you tihihickle mehe to slehehehep…” HD sputtered. “Yohou tihickle monsters are vehery f-f-fihickle!”
“F-F-Fickle?!” 4K gasped dramatically. “You insult the tickle monster now?! Oh now you’re in for it!”
4K rolled over on his front, squishing HD into the bed. Struggling was near impossible now, but HD foolishly believed that to mean it was harder to tickle him. Very wrong. 4K wrapped his arms under HD, setting his hands over HD’s ribs again. It was a perfect position to get at HD’s ribs again, and even tickle the back of them.
“No no no no nooohohohohoho…” HD giggled again. He shook his head, trying to bury it in 4K’s mane of hair. “Thahahat’s tihihicklihihiy…”
“Well yes, that’s entirely the point.” 4K spoke in a purr. His tail looped around HD’s leg, it’s fluffy tip brushing over HD’s ankle so gently. “I’m going to tickle you into a deep sleep.”
“Nohoho yohohour n-nohohot…” HD giggled back, but even he could hear the fight leave his voice. He couldn’t even muster up enough strength to pull his foot away from the fluffy tail curling around his ankle again and again.
“Yes I am~” 4K cooed. “You’re soooo sleepy already. No-one can resist the tickle monsters sleepy tickles.”
“Nnmmm…” It was less giggling now. The tingles still ran through their body, and tickled over their ribs, but HD had no energy to fight it. 4K was warm and his weight was comforting on them. It was useless.
“Ohohokahay. Ohohokahahay…” HD giggled and sighed when 4K’s fingers stopped. His tail still kept softly swishing though. “Ihihi’ll slehehep for a bihit…”
“Perfect.” 4K purred, pressing a kiss under HD’s chin. He pressed another to HD’s ear as he whispered. “You will be more help to them after a good nights sleep.”
HD hummed softly as 4K settled down. He placed his head over HD’s chest, listening to his heart while HD lazily draped his arms around his back. “You’ll feel better once you sleep.” 4K’s words were more slurred purrs than words.
HD could only hum again while his fingers played through 4K’s hair. The purrs on his chest eventually turned into soft snores and the silver light in the room dimmed. The stars twinkled above and HD slipped his eyes closed.
If he was called upon, he would wake. Until now, HD slept.
