New tickle tea story incoming, and it's a really good one

Blue me, orange NEW BOYFRIEND

Yes u read that right! Wanna find out how this came to be? Read under cut (it's gonna be pretty long cuz this is covering 2 days)

So on sunday was my university's annual carnival to usher in new freshmen (so much fun 😁🫶🏾) and I was meeting up with my some friends.

My soon-to-be boyfriend (still a friend at this time) had sent me on a scavenger hunt to look for him, and ofc I eventually found him. After that, I gave him a small gift (some things I picked up from an anime convention) and he loved them

And throughout the day, after meeting up with our mutual friend, I would always poke and tickle him and ofc, he'd tickle me back

He is a firm believer of "equivalent exchange" (whatever I do to him, he does to me, and vise versa)

So while the carnival is going on, the 3 of us find and empty classroom to watch funny videos together. I started to lay across the table with my hat over my face (this happened like twice or thrice) and my soon-to-be at the time starts tickling me (revenge he called it 🤭💖)

When our mutual friend leaves the room, the 2 of us cuddled up to each other in the corner of the room and.... we started making out and the rest is history ☺️💖

We then went out to the courtyard late at night and just sat on the ground and just stayed there for a long while; it was bliss. We cuddled and kissed, and ofc tickled each other here and there. OMG he is such a tease

"Tickle tickle tickle~" "Where else are you ticklish?" "You're ticklish here too?" "You're just ticklish all over, aren't you baby?" "Coochie cochie coo~"

LIKE OMGGGG SHUUUUP UUPP 😆😆😆💖💖💖 I LOVE HIM SO MUCH

Next day (Monday) after classes, we were in my room just cuddling and kissing. Ofc, me being a little sneak, I start tickling. OMG he is so cute when tickled! 😍🥰💖😆 He has a very airy laugh and its cute

"No, not the tickles! Hahaha!" and once I tickle him, he tickles me back (firm believer in equivalent exchange) "That's it! C'mere you!" "Where's that bellybutton?"

I HAVE ASCENDED OMFGGGGGGGGGGGGG AHHH 💖😆💖😆💖

While cuddling, we did something that I never thought I would ever think I'd do (i'd only ever read this dhit in fics) WE PLAYED A TICKLE GAME

The rules were simple: whoever lasts longer without putting their arms down wins. He lasted about 1:03. I was already so fucking nervous, but the fun nervous. Now, if yall know me, I can turn off my ticklishness, but when he started digging into my armpits and sides, I lost it. and this boy starts teasing me saying: "Come on baby! You're doing great" "I caahahahahan't" "You're almost there!" "It tihihihihickles!" "I know, babe, but you're doing great! Only a few more seconds!"

BROOOOO I FUCKING LOVE HIM 💖💖💖

I lasted 1:04, a second longer than him (did not think i'd last that long tbh) Side note: he also has a small little obsession with my bellybutton and omgg he finds it so cute! He will tickle it, kiss it; I'm dying every time he plays with it 🥰😆💖

and ofc when I'm being bratty, he always says "Alright, that's it? Where's your bellybutton?" But if anything, he often aims for my armpits cuz i can't stand my armpits being tickled i literally start bucking like a bull (but it is so much fucking fun! 🥰)

Just yesterday, we did the same tickle game again. I had asked him if he could help me (cuz i wanted to see if i could last longer than 1:04) and he happily agreed. He then said, "However, if you lose, I get to tickle you more~"

BITCH I AM LOSING ON PURPOSE EVERY FCKING TIME IF THATS THE CASE WHAAAAAT 😆😆💖💖😍😍

When tickling me, he kept teasing me and encouraging me throughout, and it made it worse. And, purposefully ofc, I shot my arms down.

"Oh nooo.. Baby you didn't make it. You know what that means?"

This 6'2 guy straddles me, pins an arm above my head while locking the other underneath his knee and starts torturing the fuck outta my armpit!!! I wanted to fucking scream (i mean i did ofc but you know what I mean) and omggg he was so fucking sadistic with it too and it make the tickling worse. I then told him that I lost on purpose and he just gave me this smug ass look and said, "You don't think I knew? You wanted this all along didn't you sugar~? Having my hands lightly explore your tickle spots while you thrash around? Hearing you laughter and cute little giggles... it's like music to my ears~"

I AM AT PEACE OMGGGGGGG I'VE DIED😆💖💖😋😍😆

And omg he is so fucking considerate and compassionate. "The safeword is Grapefruit" (literally for no particular reason, just a random he came up with) Also pointing out when tickling me like that, he did tell me that, but I was having the time of my life that I didn't use it; I was having so much fun! "If you want me to stop, just say that word and my movements will freeze in an instant." "Is this okay for you, baby?" "I don't want to move too fast, so just let me know when you wanna take a step backward" that's all he was saying throughout while he was tickling me, and when I was calling out his name, he would say "What's wrong my little sugar? Are you having fun? Well, of course you are cuz if you weren't you would've said the safeword ages ago~" Such a fucking tease i love him 💖

But really tho, he be making me wanna cry... He's so fcking sweet omggg. One time, I started tearing up when I was hugging him and I said, "Thank you.... thank you so much" "I don't know what you're thanking me for" "...For making me feel wanted, loved, safe... and beautiful..." "Aww, you're welcome my little sugar dragon. You deserve to feel that way, and I'll do whatever I can to ensure that" (he calls me sugar dragon cuz A) I am very sweet and B) our favorite fantasical creature is a dragon, and to me, he's my little chaos dragon 🥰🧡🐲) He also says "She's sugar cuz she's sweet, too much of her will kill me, and too little of her will kill me" (iykyk)

but yeah! This is an incredible comeback to TTS's! I love my boyfriend so much; such a teasy tickle monster, even tho he calls me the tickle monster cuz i always iniciate the tickle fights we have 😋💖😋 But yeah, expect a lot more TTS very soon!

Samy's acoustic gig in a bar downtown Jyväskylä, 5.12.2022 - gig report by me ✨

First of all, anyone who saw me panicking about going to this gig last night and tried to calm me down, I want you to know that your support meant the world to me and that thanks to all of you sweet people who told me it's gonna be alright and that I should totally give it a try, I had the most fun Monday night I've had in a long long while, possibly years 💖

And HUGE thanks to @thesunsetisgone for coming with me, I would've been absolutely lost without you there with me 😭 it was so great meeting you, see you again soon!! 💕

The bar was crowded as FUCK and the music (the bar's music I mean) was so loud that it was hard to hear anything. It was kinda uncomfortable and I don't see the appeal, so I don't think I'll be going to a bar again any time soon unless it's for another amazing acoustic gig 😅

This is no news to anyone who knows Samy at all but oh my god he was so smiley and happy and relaxed and cute and 😭😭😭 he was in his element, and although there were quite a few songs I didn't recognize (until later watching the videos I filmed lol), I had the time of my life just looking at him. He is such a charismatic performer, not at all diva-like, quite the contrary; he seems super down to earth and just the sweetest person 🥺

His Samy-like humour included his typical "I don't actually know how to play this" jokes (especially when he played LS songs lol), and at one point when he got too hot and took his jacket off, revealing his beautiful red silk shirt he was like (roughly translated) "I'm supposed to be this trashmetal dude, but instead I look like some fucking magic carpet" 😂💞

Songs that he covered included You Give Love a Bad Name by Bon Jovi (lol who else), The Kill (Bury Me) by 30 Seconds to Mars, a BMTH song I didn't recognize because I don't listen to BMTH but I was told it's Joonas' favourite song (Drown), the beginning of Stan by Eminem (until he went "I'm not actually gonna play this" just before the rap part 😆 I have this on video, probably gonna post later!), and Alone by Heart

Out of LS songs he played Awake (😭😭😭😭😭😭) and 112. During the latter he made us do a fun dialogue kinda singing where he sang some parts of the chorus and we had to sing the next line 🥺

My personal highlight was when he 😭😭😭😭 he played 😭😭😭💘💘💘 he played I Will Follow You Into The Dark by Death Cab For Cutie and 😭😭😭😭 I don't think you understand, this is one of my favourite songs in the entire world and I was this 🤏 close to elbowing my way through the crowd to snog him directly on the mouth for playing it 💞

Out of context: he looked me in the eyes and told me I was beautiful

In context: he sang a Finnish song (!!!!!!!!!!!!! a rare occasion, he told us) in which the chorus goes "you are beautiful, and the world is yours" (Maailma on sun by Tehosekoitin) and I SWEAR he looked right at me one time when he sang that line, I REFUSE to believe otherwise 😤

Actually I feel like we made eyecontact quite a few times, but that might as well have been an optical illusion (or wishful thinking 😔)

He also began to sang Wonderwall like the troll he is, but then he was like "fuck no am I gonna play that song" 😆 and @thesunsetisgone may correct me if I'm wrong but it was then when he started playing The Boulevard of Broken Dreams by Green Day and...I don't have video material of what happened next because ????? 😂

He hadn't gotten too far into the song when this 60-year-old guy (I know this because the man himself said he was soon turning 60), somewhat drunk, assumably a friend of Samy's, got on the "stage" (there was no stage) and wanted to duet the song with him, but then neither of them could remember any more lyrics, so the random man took out his phone and googled the lyrics, and when Samy looked at his phone he cracked up because apparently the man had googled the lyrics to Basket Case instead 🤣 the man was insistent on singing this song instead though, but Samy was like "I don't know how to play that?!" and then he pointed at someone in the front row like "you come up here and play this!" and suddenly a wild Mirko appeared! 😃 and then they played Basket Case with Mirko on the guitar and the whole bar sang along ✨

I would also like to thank Samy for making me cross one thing off my bucket list: the last song he performed was Livin' On a Prayer and I've ALWAYS wanted to sing along to that song in a crowd of people singing along with me, so Mr. Elbanna you really made this dream of mine reality 🙏

Damn, I really wish I had told him all this 😔 I mean, I did get the opportunity, because after the gig was over, we went to the restaurant side of the place to put on our outerwear, and Samy was there?? Right next to us???? And first we were like "omg he's right there" but just continued putting on our jackets, but then we were like "no, let's go take pictures with him!"

And so, yeah, we did 🥰 and he was so sweet 😭💕

Thank you kind sir, this evening gave me so much joy you have no idea 🥺💖

When we got out of the bar we had a minor fangirling moment ("OMG WE JUST MET SAMY!!!")...and then a couple of shabby-looking dudes came to ask if we sell speed 🤡 because apparently your average speed-salesperson looks like this:

To conclude, I had the best time and I'm so happy I went and all the panic and nervousness was SO worth it <3

I will post more videos in the LS/Samy tag later today!

It’s technically early Monday morning for me, but I have a soft thought to share

I can just picture being in a bar with the boys and Jake approaching you, just casually smooth talking and flirting as you wait to order

Then once you get your drink he pays for it (bcs of course he does) and asks, “do you think I’m hot?” And you’re like… yeah? “Do you like guys with curly hair?” And confused you respond, “i think it’s alright” not sure of his angle

With a wide grin he claps his hands, “great, you’ve got to meet my brother then. He’s gonna like you”

And then he introduces you to Josh and you spend the whole night talking and maybe end up making out in the bar alley and falling in love 💖

This is my maladaptive daydream lol

Also, an extra bonus thought, Karen has mentioned before that jake struggles with dyslexia which means he probably prefers talking on the phone or sending voice memos over texting. I’ll be thinking about this all day

Okay, bye! Have a good week!!

Anon

Anon please. Your maladaptive daydream is now MY maladaptive daydream, we’re in this together!!

Also for your bonus thought imagine waking up to late night voice memos from Jake just telling you about the show or his day off in a different city and his voice is low and sleepy but he couldn’t go to sleep without talking to you first, but he knew you would already by fast asleep and he’s just telling you how much he misses you and loves you and he can’t wait to come home and see you again (and josh in the background bc it’s an overnight bus ride just telling him to stfu and go to sleeepppp!!!!)

goodnight <3

Finders Keepers (cont.)

Hey babe, heard you weren't feeling too well, so I wrote you another quick drabble of tiny wolf George, this time they're going on a team run. Beware this is a bit angsty so if you're not in the mood for a bit of angst I'm sorry. (Also I'm sorry this is so short, because I need to go to work and only had time to write this short thing again). Hope you're feeling better soon 💙💙💙

HONESTLY I HAVE NO WORDS HOW HAPPY THIS MADE ME WHEN I READ IT YESTERDAY, THANK YOU SO SO MUCH 🥺🥺💖💖💖💖

Shifting as a team and going on runs together has long been a great way of team building and it's been so deeply embedded in their paddock lifestyle, that the FIA makes sure to allocate each team a time frame at every event where they can do that.

Because as wolfs they're bound to follow their instincts a lot more, the FIA is careful to make sure that no teams are allocated the same times to ensure that no on track rivalry will be carried out as wolfs in a way that could harm anyone.

So George accepts when Lewis suggests they go on a run together in their allocated time on Thursday, although going on a run with a new group is always stressful for him. A lot of the engineers and mechanics haven't seen him in his less than imposing form and he's bound to get lost at some point, his small legs making travel a lot slower than most wolves.

In F2 it had been alright, Jack had been with him and had known him from GP3 so he knew what to look out for. His first race in F1 almost got him lost without the efforts of Aleix making sure he was always in a distance to see the others but still be visible to George so he could catch up. (He'd still gotten lost.) When Nicky joined the team it helped because even if Nicky was huge as a wolf, his instinct to take care of George was so strong that he'd kept them save.

And sure, he's been part of the Mercedes team before but he's never been part of a run. He knows most of these guys and girls are massive in their wolf form. So yeah, he's nervous.

It doesn't help that Aleix and Angela have decided to stay back to take care of Roscoe and George will have to go for his first run with a new team without knowing if someone will go look for him if he goes missing.

There's heavy rain clouds on the sky and George knows his wolf form won't mind and will love the rain, he also knows it will make it easier for him to slip and fall should it get wet.

He's still in thoughts when the FIA official in charge of swapping the runs over comes to collect them. They all shift and George looks around him and feels himself towered by everyone. In wolf forms they're all pretty big but the big black wolf that George recognises as Toto and the even bigger dark brown wolf that is now in place of where Michael stood are massive.

Michael walks over to him and lowers his head to sniff at George who can't help but nuzzle against the other wolf's snout. As much as he loves to deny it in human form, his wolf form loves Mike. Ever since he'd found him and kept him safe on Monday, his inner wolf is urging him to stick close to the other.

They still have to wait for the Williams team to return and it's not long before they arrive (the overlap in this case is okay because it's supervised and because Mercedes and Williams are known to get along.)

George jumps from Michael's form over to the almost twin forms of Alex and Nicky, both with thick dark fur. The only way to keep them apart is the little bit darker fur on Nicky and the more orange eyes of Alex. But George would always know these two.

They get a moment to greet each other and then the dark grey smaller wolf that George knows is Jost comes over to lead Alex and Nicky away (but not before grooming George until Toto shows up next to him with a less than impressed glance as if to say 'he's my pup sod off').

And then the Mercedes team is off.

At first George can sort of catch up to everyone. But then it does start raining and gets even darker with the clouds and the others in their blacks and browns camouflage with the woods around them.

One second he's right behind Bono and then they all turn right after a particularly big tree and then suddenly George is alone. He sniffs the air, tries to figure out where everyone has gone, but the rain that's now coming down steadily washes all scents away.

There's a rustling in some bushes that spook George heavily that turns out to be just a bunny and maybe he should want to hunt the other animal, after all it's prey, but he feels more scared when it jumps out than the bunny seems to be.

He whines, hoping someone will hear him. He trots back and forth but he knows the tree is so prominent that it's probably his best bet to stay. It's easy to lose his way if he should turn back.

And so he sits down, burrows himself into the leaves that are on the floor and tucks himself against the roots of the tree. He doesn't know how long he's cowering there but he's getting cold and with every moment the woods start turning darker and darker and he's whining.

His human form tries taking back over but his wolf form is so desperate that he won't let him. His human conscience knows he needs to be patient, wait until his wolf form is exhausted enough to let go of his desperation.

The rain gets lighter again and the woods turn silent.

And so George tries howling, trying to grab anyone's attention. He's surprised when there's a howl that answers him and he answers, even if his howls aren't as thunderous and loud as the other howl is.

He hopes it's someone from his team, as the howling grows closer.

And then a big wolf comes around the corner, eyes frantic, searching.

It's Michael, George can tell by scent and he runs up to the other wolf.

When Michael sees the tiny white whole he lays down and lowers his head in apology. George rubs against his side and gives him a playful bite.

Michael helps him back to the paddock patiently. The team (pack) is waiting at the fence, the wolf form of Toto glaring and growling at the FIA official seeming to want to hurry them along.

When George stumbles into their midst the Lewis and Bono turn to him and immediately start grooming him, whining and whimpering in apology.

They filter back into the motorhome. George doesn't want to change back any more, scared of the embarrassment of getting lost so easily. And so he stays as the small wolf, let's Aleix clean his paws and the fur on his tummy and cuddles against Roscoe's side, eyeing everyone around him as they change back.

“We're so sorry, George. We should've looked out better.”, Lewis apologises nearing George's form and offering his hand for George to sniff. He does and butts his head against it, demanding scratchies that Lewis is happy to oblige him with.

They all apologise but George is still too embarrassed to change back, even if he forgives them. If only he wouldn't be so small and tiny and would've been able to keep up.

“It's okay.”, Michael sits down next to him and places a hand on George's back, fingers digging into the white fur. “You don't need to be embarrassed. It was our bad you got lost.”, he mutters.

His words help but he's tired and doesn't really want to change back. And so he just gets up and crawls into Michael's lap, despite his human conscious yelling at him to stop and to get up and 'oh my god let me take over', where he lays down and let's the engineer pet him until he falls asleep.

(When he wakes in his own hotel bedroom in human form he wants to scream into his pillow, because why is his wolf form so drawn to Michael????)
