My favorite tickle ideas and tropes 💙

Below are some of my favorite tickling ideas, mostly because I just wanted to get everything in one place for when I'm writing my comics, so this should give you an idea of what I'm planning if you're interested. I also included ones that I don't like at the bottom (please don't take those personally, I'm not here to yuck yums, it's just how I feel). I may add to this as I think of more.

This is sfw but the context is definitely romantic/intimate for the most part, so I'm asking that minors not interact with this, and if I see it I'm going to block you.

Things that drive me nuts as a ler:

- shameless lees

- shy lees

- lees that hold back a bit at first, and then laugh deeply and openly, like they have absolutely no control over how much it tickles and it's all they can do to laugh their heart out

- lees that do what I ask without fuss (put your arms up, put your feet in my lap, etc <3)

- lees that hem and haw about admitting they're ticklish or they want tickles, but not in a mean way

- lees that can say the word, UNLESS the prospect of THEM being tickled comes up, then they clam right up

- lees that laugh uncontrollably just to have fingers wiggled at them, before anyone has even touched them

- lees that blush uncontrollably

- "not there!" (god help me with this one)

- lees that can withstand tickles/stay vulnerable without being restrained

- BOTH lees that are openly excited to be tickled, AND lees that are very shy about it, but want it just as much

Things that drive me nuts as a lee:

- being clothed, but having the ler reveal my spots as they tickle them, especially if it is done SLOWLY, ie: "Oooh, look what I just found~" fhsfhdgfhdhfjdh

- nervous/shy lers who get more confident the more you laugh

- lers who are actually switches, using the teases on you that work on THEM

- verbal teasing verbal teasing verbal teasing

- "This is your favorite spot, isn't it?"

- "Everyone likes it right here~"

- "Not where? Here? Right heeeere?"

- Lots and lots of anticipation/lead up

- Lots and lots of playful banter/teasing outside of a tickling context before tickling happens

- Observant lers who notice things I like/things that make me blush even if I haven't vocalized it (or even better, things I'm trying to hide)

These tropes:

- Lers that use wordplay/idioms/puns while teasing, holy shit

- Lees/switches experiencing tickles for the first time, especially if it is an alien/non-human whatever who really enjoys both tickling and being tickled, bonus if they think humans are just the cutest things~

- Medical doctor/scientist who knows way more about human anatomy than you do (first as a ler, and then unexpected payback after, which they secretly enjoy)

- Unintentional tickles that have to be endured for necessity or social norms (medical exams, massage, etc)

- switches who dish out things they absolutely CANNOT handle and then get all of it back when their lee switches <3 (I call this the glass house trope). Bonus if they get teased mercilessly and are super shy about it.

- Super powerful entities/creatures who are outrageously ticklish, and are strong enough to stop the tickling at any time, but they don't because they like it <3

- Super powerful entities that use 2% of their strength to tickle a delicate, squishy human to pieces

- Intellectuals who think they are above such weaknesses, finding out that they are most certainly NOT

- people being surprised at how ticklish they are

- cheer up tickles

General ideas that I like:

romantic context

loving looks especially from the ler to the lee

candid discussions about tickling that involve a lot of blushing and playful teasing <3333

gentleness

open consent

a mutual understanding of how much each other enjoy the tickling/being tickled

Do not like:

- bratty lees (brattiness doesn't appeal to me at all, in any context)

- sadistic lers

- familial tickling of any kind (trauma, squicks me out very badly)

- non-con of any kind. mild cnc is okay, but I don't like it if the lee seems upset, uncomfortable, or desperate in a bad way, even in a cnc context.

- primarily foot focused

- s3xual tickling

- overwhelm/many spots being tickled at once (I prefer one or two, more is okay, but if it's everywhere, then I don't get a sense of how ticklish each spot is)
