Hey HD have you ever used your helper hands to tickle someone for you when you didn't have the energy to?

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.

Ticklish? What’s that?

Word count: 2153

Notes: This is a one-off that has nothing to do with my other God AU. It’s floating somewhere is a headcannon where George, Dream, and XD are friends, and Dream and XD have a vague connection where they’ve known each other for a long long time. It’s my little take on the ‘XD doesn’t know what tickling is’ trope! I hope you enjoy!

George giggled as he was jostled again, keeping his hold around the god.

“Give it back!”, he yelled, reaching for the goggles. He yelled as he was almost thrown again.

XD laughed, holding George’s goggles just out of reach and keeping care to make sure George didn’t fall off his back. He had snatched the boy’s goggles off his head a few minutes ago when he was getting too sassy, and the boy had jumped on his back like a little monkey.

“Not until you apologize!”.

“I didn’t even do anything!”, George’s voice was shrill with playful energy, still grabbing wildly towards the goggles.

“You were being a brat! You called me the ‘god of being an idiot’!!”. At that, George broke into laughter and started to slide down XD’s back.

“You are!”.

XD must have felt George sliding down because suddenly there were large hands grabbing at his thighs as he slipped. The unexpected touch made him squeal and suddenly, he was on the floor.

“George!”.

“That hurt!”, he cried out through hysterical giggles, but he was rubbing at his thighs.

“Where does it hurt?”, XD kneeled down next to him and tried moving his hands. George’s giggling kicked up in octave as he panicked.

“You dropped me on my butt!”.

“Did you pull a muscle?”, XD pulled away one of his hands and grabbed at George’s thigh. He screeched and yanked away. “Whoa! What’s wrong?”.

“Don’t do that!”, George’s face was starting to burn under the attention and he had completely lost control of his giggles.

“Are you hurt?”.

“No!”, George cursed how flustered he was getting, but XD kept trying to touch his legs. “I’m okay! I’m okay!”.

“Yeah?”, XD tilted his head in amusement at George’s state.

George sat up and tried to shake off his giggles.

“Why are you so giggly?”, XD asked and scooted closer. Suddenly, he darted his hands towards George’s legs. They stopped before they touched him, but he squealed and burst into laughter anyway.

“Don’t!”, he cried as covered his legs.

“Don’t what? What’s gotten into you?”, XD laughed. “You’re so jumpy! Why are you blocking your legs?”. George huffed out forcefully, trying to calm his laughter. Was XD playing dumb or did he really not know why he was laughing? He tried to think back to any other time XD had tickled him and came up empty.

“It um…I’m just ticklish there…”, he stuttered.

“Ticklish? What’s that?”. George’s eyes widened a little at the question.

“You don’t know what tickling is?”.

“No. I don’t just know everything George.”.

“Well. It’s like a touch that makes you laugh. So, my thighs are ticklish…and when you grabbed them it tickled so I laughed.”, George’s blush darkened more and more as he spoke.

“You look like you are going to explode. Did the tickling embarrass you?”.

“No! I’m just…uh.”, George shook his head in frustration over his hot cheeks. “I just didn’t expect to be tickled. I don’t know!”. XD laughed at him again. George had to hold himself back from yelling ‘Shut up!’.

George yelped as XD pressed him to the floor and straddled him.

“Hey!”.

“I want to tickle you more!”.

“Wh-no! You can’t!”.

“Why? Where else are you ticklish?”, XD grinned and pressed George to the ground by his sides. Then…he squeezed. George squealed and twisted in the hold.

“Don’t do that!”, he burst into giggles and shoved at XD’s hands.

“Does it tickle?”, XD asked in a teasing voice, then got to work right away pinching and squeezing at George’s sides. George struggled for a few seconds, hoping that XD would be too inexperienced to tickle him well, but exploded into uncontrollable laughter as he attacked just the right spots with just the right amount of pressure.

“Stop!”, he shrieked and bucked up against the weight holding him down. He smacked at the hands and twisted, squealing as the tickled didn’t let up at all. “Okay! Okay! Okay!!! You tickled me!!”, he cried out in desperation. XD giggled.

“You are so cute like this!”.

“Please!”, he squeaked out.

George flopped against the ground in a heap of giggles when XD released his sides.

“I like tickling. It’s your thighs too, right?”, XD grinned mischievously.

“No!”, George yelled and grabbed for XD’s hands. They were batted away easily and George shrieked at XD got a hold of the ticklish muscles. “No!!”.

“I don’t know…they seem pretty ticklish to me.”. George twisted and howled with laughter. He was no match for XD’s strength.

“No more!”, he cried.

XD stopped suddenly and pinned George’s wrists down at either side of his head. George giggled hysterically.

“XD!”, he whined.

“Georgie. Can you please show me more tickling?”, XD asked sweetly. George opened his mouth to respond, but only flustered giggles fell out. It’s not like he didn’t want to help his friend out and make him happy…he was just so ridiculously ticklish and the idea of letting himself be tickled seemed impossible.

“I’m too ticklish…”, he muttered softly. XD grinned wider.

XD moved George’s wrists together above his head so now he had a free hand hovering over George’s squirmy body.

“Nononono!”, George broke into panicky giggles.

“I’ll go slow!”. George nodded a little, but shrieked in fear when XD’s large hand neared his ribs. He kicked helplessly at the floor behind XD and shook his head.

“XD!”.

“Yeah?”, XD flashed a toothy grin. George could only shake his head and giggle.

When the fingers touched down to the ticklish bones in his ribcage, George screamed bloody murder.

“George!”, XD laughed as he plucked George’s ribs like a guitar. The mortal threw his head back and laughed crazily. How could XD be this good at tickling when he was just learning? “Ooh, you’re really ticklish here!”.

“Please!”, he peeped out through his hysterics. XD stopped and laughed.

“This is so much fun! Can I try one more spot?”. George whined through his giggles, but gave a weak nod.

Before George even recovered, there were five fingertips pressed and shaking into his stomach. He barely had a second to gasp before exploding into hysterical laughter.

“XD!!! XD! XD please! Please!!!”, he begged desperately through his laughter. There was no budging either of XD’s hands. XD just smirked and leaned in closer, observing George’s each and every reaction. He squealed when the god found a particularly good spot. “Okay! Okay!”.

George’s laughter raised in pitch for a few more seconds and cut off into squeaky giggles when XD stopped.

“I love tickling!”, XD announced and pulled George up to cuddle his limp body. George giggled dizzily and sank gratefully into the hold. “Thanks for teaching me how to tickle, Georgie.”.

~•~

Dream rolled his eyes as he took in the aroma of the house.

“Mushroom soup again?”.

“Complain and you will get none.”, George snapped, making Dream giggle as settled in.

Conversation was easy as George finished dinner and served them both. The topics George’s wanted to talk about least came up a few minutes later.

“So you were supposed to hang out with XD today, right?”.

“Ugh! Yeah. We hung out.”, George slurped down a spoonful of hot soup and hoped Dream would think the blush taking over his cheeks was from the heat. One glance up at the other boy told him no.

“What? Did you guys get into a fight or something?”.

“No. No, nothing like that.”, George shook his head and focused his eyes on the soup bowl. “Just. I taught him some new stuff he didn’t know about humans. He didn’t know about…tickling. He tickled me by accident and when I reacted he wanted to learn more. I tried to let him, but it was really hard.”, George explained. He could almost feel the ghost of XD’s fingers prodding at his sides. Dream didn’t respond.

George looked up to find Dream with his hand over his own mouth.

“What! I was just trying to be a good friend!”, George snapped, defensive.

“You’re such an idiot, George!”, Dream burst into laughter. George watched him break down with a mix of embarrassment and confusion. “XD knows what tickling is! Are you stupid?”. George stared at Dream with wide eyes for a few seconds.

“What?!”.

“Why wouldn’t he know what tickling is! George!”.

“I don’t know! He seemed sincere!”, George yelled, then covered his face and whined into his hands. “Wait…that’s why he was so…ugh!!”.

“So what?”.

“Nothing! Nevermind!”, George huffed and dropped his hands, trying to go back to his soup.

“No, tell me!”.

“Good at it! Whatever!”.

“Awww he tickled you really good?”, Dream teased.

“Stop!”.

“Too good for an amateur, huh? Did he make you scream?”.

“Dream!!!”, George yelled and stood up, grabbing his bowl of soup and threatening to throw it at the other boy. Dream gripped the table to avoid laughing himself out of his chair.

~•~

Dream and George walked slowly through the forest together. George had been fine when they started their trek towards their destination, but as they went on he was getting flustered at the conversation.

“And you’re sure he’s ticklish?”, George whispered.

“Yes! Growing up, me and him were in plenty of tickle fights. I’m not going to lie, he won a lot of them, but he’s definitely ticklish.”.

“He’s going to win.”, George hissed out.

“Probably…but you won’t go down without a fight!”.

“I don’t want to be tickled!”, he whined.

“George, you have to get him back!”.

It was the next day, and George and XD had plans to meet up again. Dream was going to hide and watch, and George was going to enact his revenge.

“His worst spots are his ribs. Go for the kill. Be rough, George. He’s a god, you can’t really hurt him.”, Dream nodded as he spoke.

As they neared the clearing, Dream found a tree with a low branch and pulled himself up.

“Good luck!”, he whispered before disappearing into the leaves.

George found a tree to sit against and played with his fingers while he waited. His stomach was filled with nervous butterflies and he had the urge to get up and run.

“Georgie!”, XD’s voice pulled him from his thoughts and he smiled at the sight of his friend.

“Hi XD!”, he said as he pulled himself up and fell into his arms for a hug.

“I missed you!”, XD yelled and spun him around playfully. George couldn’t help but giggle.

“I missed you, too.”, he rolled his eyes as he was placed down, but he was smiling despite the attitude.

Before he could lose his nerve, he sprung into action. He tackled XD down and dug his fingers into his ribs before they even hit the ground. XD barked out a laugh of surprise, but George was pinned before he even knew it.

“Wha-hey!”, he struggled under the hold and fell helpless to the nervous giggles bubbling up his throat. “Okay, I’m sorry!”.

“Get over here, Dream!”, XD called out into the field. There was a rustling before Dream hopped down from the tree and bolted. XD disappeared and reappeared directly in his path and Dream crashed right into his arms with a yelp.

“Fuck! XD, no please! I was just watching!”, Dream begged as he was dragged through the clearing easily. He scrabbled his feet against the ground and clawed at XD’s arms, but it was no use. “Nononono!”.

George crawled backwards as XD approached, but XD grabbed his ankle and yanked him back.

The two boys were smushed together on the ground.

“So. Tickling, huh?”, XD smirked as he held them both down effortlessly.

“I know you tricked me!”, George said, cursing just how squeaky it was.

“Yeah? It was so easy. Awww you don’t know what tickling is? Here, tickle me all over!”, XD perfectly mimicked George’s voice, but the teasing words made George blush darkly.

“That’s not what I said!”, he yelled.

“And you? Little sneak. You told on me?”, XD leaned in close to his mortal counterpart, making the boy burst into giggles.

“Let us go!”.

“Yeah! Let us go!”, George echoed.

The two were getting more flustered with each passing second. The thought of being tickled silly while pinned down together was ridiculously embarrassing.

At the same time, XD attacked one of each boy’s sides. They squealed and twisted against each other. They both tried to shove away the offending hands, but even together, they were no match against a god. After just a second or two of tickling, they were screeching with laughter. The tickling hands attacked their sides and stomachs and ribs, darting around as they squealed and laughed like children. They were helpless and could do nothing but take it. They felt so small. Pinned down by a god. Dream twisted and wheezed, clawing at the grass. George screamed, flailing and kicking desperately.

“I’m so glad you two volunteered to teach me more about tickling!”.

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.

Day 26: Counting

Reserved by @mushiewrites

Reblog first, like later please, reblogs do more

Reservations are full

George had moments where he regretted teaching XD what tickling was. XD was a very curious God when it came to human things and George, more often than not, became their test subject for the new things they learned. And them have four arms definitely did not help. George was currently in a meadow with XD, one far enough away that no one would find them, pinned to the soft grass by two of their four hands. XD had learned about rib counting from Foolish, having seeing him do it to Bad and asking about it.

"Ex... is this really necessary?" George whimpered, squirming a bit under them.

"You told me I could try out new things on you George. Just relax, it'll be much easier for you if you relax." XD hovered his clawed hands over him, waiting for any real signs for them to stop. When George didn't give them any, they started at the bottom, rubbing his claws into his ribs.

"1, 2, 3,4. You're so loud George, is it really that bad?" XD's tone was entirely curiosity instead of teasing.

"YEHEHEHES!" XD continued to count under their breath, working their way up until they hit the top, letting George rest a bit before wanting to explore something else he learned.

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.

The Cure for a Spiral

DreamXD is panicking over his upcoming talk with Dream. There's just so much he has to say and so much explaining he has to do but his self-doubt make him spiral. GeorgeHD has the perfect solution to keep him on track.

Next part in the AU. Sorry this one is so short.

---

The only times DreamXD ever felt fear in his life all involved Dream.

He remembered when his brother was sick with a fever for the first time and XD was clueless. He scoured the libraries for any medical books and followed the instructions down to the smallest details till Dream was nursed back to health.

Then when Dream went missing one day and XD would have torn the End apart to find him. The relief and frustration he felt when he finally found his brother couldn’t be matched.

When XD had learned the server was in a hunt for Dream, his heart leapt to his throat and he couldn’t dare watch anymore as Dream was dragged, kicking and screaming, to the prison.

And finally when he heard the booming call of the End portal being opened, XD knew in his heart that it was Dream. He was fully expecting the sight of his brother’s lifeless body waiting for him at the end and prepared himself for it. He did not have time to express his relief when he saw both he and George were alive. The anger came first.

Now DreamXD felt a new kind of fear, once again tied to Dream. The fear that he had backed off too much and he had severed any chance of a relationship between himself and Dream. The thought pained him to dwell on and kept him up at night worrying.

He knew he had been drastic in his actions when he interrogated Dream, but in the moment he could excuse it as being important. Now it was over and XD was swelled with guilt and the need to make amends.

As promised in his note to Dream, he met with his brother a couple days later. This time XD stood outside while Dream spoke from the doorway of George’s cottage. George just right behind him.

It had been so long since XD had seen George, or seen Dream and George together again. It was nice to see them close, depending on one another again, and it hurt XD he couldn’t be that close with them again.

The three spoke, though it was mostly Dream and XD. They came to the conclusion they needed to have time to speak and clear the air between them once and for all. Years of misunderstandings would be aired and handled.

So Dream proposed a time to talk next week. It would be held in George’s cottage for ease to Dream and XD agreed. And now every day since then, he’d been nothing but fearful.

“I mean, like it’s not a super serious talk, you know? But…well it will lead to probably serious stuff. It’s a lot we probably have to talk about.”

XD explained to GeorgeHD. Or, more rambled on to him. The sleepy God lounged over his fort of pillows and blankets, but he was oddly alert and interested in XD’s words this time. Probably because XD mentioned it was about Dream.

XD never asked what happened between HD and Dream when he left his younger brother in the care of the God, but it must have been positive. Every time XD visited he asked about Dream and how the mortal was getting on and would frown when XD admitted he hadn’t worked up the courage to speak to him. Now he told HD that the two were talking and HD was all ears.

“But it’s a sudden thing right? To suddenly delve into years of misunderstandings so like it can’t be expected to be serious stuff right away. I think it’s like laying it all out first you know then we’ll work on stuff from there. That makes sense right?”

XD looked at HD expectantly for an answer. The older God said nothing for a while until it seemed he realised it was finally his time to speak. “I’ve never seen you this nervous.” Was the first thing he said.

XD’s cheeks went red and he fought back the urge to pull his mask on. He had even gone without the wraps around his eyes, showing the void of blackness and his ever moving eyes in front of HD, though it was nothing the other God hadn’t seen before. Today XD was too wound up to have the wraps on.

“Well it’s a lot to be nervous about!” XD huffed.

“I didn’t mean it in a bad way.” HD lazily held up his hand before pushing himself to sit up properly. “Though I was worried if you didn’t stop and take a breath you would have been the first God to die from suffocation.”

“I…” XD could feel himself wanting to ramble again, and he took in a breath and slowed himself down. “I just want things to go smoothly. I don’t want to fuck this up. Dream’s giving me a chance to talk.”

“He’s probably just as nervous as you are.” HD assured him. “He’s probably pacing back and forth, worrying over every little thing he’s going to say to you.”

That was a nice thought to have. Not on his brother being nervous but the idea that Dream was listing out everything he’d want to say to XD to try and make this better was a hopeful thought. Too hopeful for XD to believe. “I don’t think he wants to speak to me.”

“Trust me, he very much does.”

HD sounded so assured and XD couldn’t help but be curious. “Has he…said anything to you?”

One of the corners of HD’s pillows caught the older God’s attention and kept his face turned down to inspect it. “It’s not my place to say. Dream should get the chance to tell you.” He looked up again. “But you’re worrying too much, I promise you. This isn’t a one chance he’s given you, he wants to talk to you as much as you want to talk to him.”

XD didn’t believe it, but he held his tongue on it. Dream certainly wanted to explain himself for his stunt and maybe he was owed that, but he couldn’t really imagine his brother wanting to talk with him. They had drifted too far apart.

“Come here.” HD suddenly pulled XD from his thoughts. A few of their ephemeral hands set up pillows for HD to lean back on, and one placed over his lap which they patted for XD to lay down.

This seemed suddenly far too nice for HD, but XD played along. He shuffled himself over and lay down with his head over HD’s lap.

“Do you have a plan to talk?”

XD looked up, watching HD watching him. It was a little unnerving, but it was also comforting in a strange way.

“Well…y-yes I do.” XD cleared his throat. “So I think we should talk about what happened in the End. I didn’t really explain things properly with him. And I never gave him a chance to explain himself. So I think opening with that is better.”

Even as XD said the words he could feel doubt filling his head. “A-Although…maybe talking about how we stopped talking in the first place is better? We could start from the beginning and work towards where we-EEE!”

A hand suddenly squeezed into his side. XD jumped, squealed and looked down just in time to see the white ephemeral helper hand of HD disappear. He looked up to HD while curling his lower arms around his sides in protection. He silently asked for an explanation.

“You were doubting yourself, and rambling off point.” HD nodded along to his words as though it was expected. “Now. Take a breath and focus. You’re going to talk about the End. Work from there.”

Like that is easy to do when the hands could appear at any moment. XD glanced down to his sides again but the hands were gone. He had no way to know when they’d appear, so he just swallowed his worry and tried to speak clearly again.

“I… I’m going to talk to him about the whole thing with the End. I’ll let him explain himself then I’ll speak from my point.”

XD gave a look up to a nodding HD who decided that was allowed.

“Then I was going to let him say whatever he wants to say.” XD continued. “like for all the years I did wrong, and try to smooth things over when I can. But…” Self doubt started to creep in. “I don’t want it to feel like I’m springing all this on him. Like-Like he doesn’t have to explain himself if he’s uncomforta-HAHA!”

Apparently that was not the right thing to say either, as another hand appeared from nowhere. XD saw it too late and could only manage to half curl his legs up before it tasered into his sides. He gave a very high squeak before breaking into giggles.

“H-Hehey!”

“You spiralled.” HD said like it was obvious. “You need to not do that.”

“I-I wasn’t spiralling.” XD defended himself, then yipped when the hand appeared again, this time at his other side. He managed to get his legs curled up and his arms blocking his sides and ribs. “N-Noho!”

“You doubt your own plans and get in your head about how Dream will react. All you need to be focusing on is how you react and how you come across as to Dream.”

XD thought the hand would disappear with just a warning, but it stayed, and it slowly drifted closer to XD’s side. He tried to turn away, but HD’s hands softly fell on his shoulders, holding him down as he helplessly looked up.

“HeheDehehehe…”

“You need to get out of your head.” HD decided. “And what better way to get you out of there?”

The hand touched upon XD’s side, making his skin jump. It got to the bit just behind XD’s top, skittering more along his back than his sides. XD cursed his more revealing back now more than ever. It didn’t tickle a lot, the fingers just skittering so lightly along his back, but it made him giggle.

HD’s thumbs rubbed into XD’s shoulders, making soothing circles into his skin. The younger God held back a soft moan. His muscles slowly relaxed without his control, making him more giggly to the fingers fluttering along his side. It was making him more tickly and distracted him from the hands materialising by his feet.

XD was allowed a few seconds of soft tickles before the hands by their feet grabbed their ankles. They made a loud squeak, and tried to pull against their legs being forced to stretch out but it was pointless. They had one on each of his ankles and one poking at each of their soles.

“HeheDehe…”

“4K is so right. It’s absolutely tragic your feet aren’t ticklish.”

A blush crept up from XD’s shoulders to his cheeks. He curled his toes to the strange tingling feeling running over his feet. It wasn’t ticklishness, but they did feel more sensitive whenever 4K or HD mentioned them.

“Y-Yohou and him are too obsessed with my feet.” XD challenged back.

“Well it’s unfair. That spot is tickly for both of us. It drives 4K mad even, but we can’t get good revenge on you.”

XD knew about HD’s tickly feet but he’d never gotten the change to tickle 4K’s. Whenever the God took off his boots around XD it was usually when they were settling down for a nap. Although now that XD thought about it, it was odd he was the only God among them to wear footwear. Like he was protecting them.

“4K’s feet drive him bad?” XD tried to ask casually.

“Oh yeah. Hysterics.” HD shrugged. “He still loves being tickled there but he can’t help but kick and roll and curl up to try and protect his feet. Too sensitive for him to keep still, he had to be held down when he asks for feet tickles.”

A lot of details flagged in XD’s head but the main one was that 4K had, at one point, specifically asked for his feet tickled and HD complied. Before XD could do anything with that fact, a quick skitter ran across his ankles, making him bark out a laugh.

“Wh-Whahat!” The skittering followed a long continuous tickle across his ankle. XD had been so busy processing the information HD gave him he didn’t notice the tickling stopping at his side or the hands no longer poking at his soles. “N-Nohohot fahahair!” XD chirped and tried to pull his legs away.

“Your ankles being adorably ticklish make up for it I suppose.” HD smiled.

“Ihihit’s nohohot adohorahable! S-SToHOhoHOHOP!”

The hands danced their tickly dance up XD’s ankles, travelling further up his legs till it reached his knees. He whimpered and pleaded through giggles, but when the hands squeezed his knees and skittered along the sides, his laughter turned soft and his pleading slowly stopped.

“I got your kneeeees~” HD’s voice was a gentle whisper.

“D-Dohoooon’t…”

“Don’t? Don’t get your knees? Or don’t stop tickling your knees?”

XD kept quiet and HD didn’t press on. They both knew the answer and it was obvious with XD little whine when the hands stopped their tickling. It was then XD noticed his ankles weren’t even being held anymore.

“So, what’s your plan with Dream?”

HD’s voice was a soft purr, nestling in XD’s head and drawing his thoughts to the surface. “Give Dream a chance to explain himself about the End. Then I’ll explain my side.”

HD slowly nodded. “Right. And then what?”

One of the older God’s actual hands came down by the right side of XD’s face. They could feel the fingers playing with a strand of their hair. “Then I… I don’t know…” XD admitted. Their body tensed, expecting to be tickled suddenly, but they were left alone.

“That’s alright.” HD’s voice eased their tension. “You have years of confusion to work through, you can’t be expected to have a plan for it.”

XD gave the slightest of nods, agreeing in part. The words of Dream ran through his head again as he thought of it.

“Why do you need a plan for me?! Why can’t you just talk with me first?! You’re my brother!”

“I think I’ve been planning too much.” XD admitted. “I think instead of planning I should have been talking to Dream.”

“The last horse crosses the finish line.” HD half chuckled. He pressed a kiss to the top of XD’s head to show no hard feelings. “It won’t be easy but I know you love Dream more than anything, and Dream is your brother. So your stubbornness for love is in him too.”

“I hope he doesn’t have my lack of forgiving nature.” XD grimaced but pulled himself to sit up. He felt weirdly rested, like he’d taken a nap.

“You both just need to talk and take it from there. It wouldn’t be fixed overnight, or even over a week, but you both taking the first step is the right thing to do.”

XD could agree with that, though talking about the first step and actually taking it were two different things. It wouldn’t help matters either that George would be there. While XD loved George as much as he loved Dream, and George deserved a chance to explain his side too, the God couldn’t help feel like it was a two on one situation. Even though he knew that idea was ludicrous. He was God for Prime sake, it wasn’t like it was unfair.

“Do you want me to come with you?”

Like a soft bell ringing in his mind, the dark clouds of doubts cleared and XD looked over to HD.

“Really?! I-I mean...would you? Would that be okay?”

XD did not want to presume their friend’s offer was just talk but they worried HD wasn’t ready for the Overworld again. XD still hadn’t gotten to ask HD about their status as the Overworld God. Or the fact he used to be the Overworld God. It seemed too personal and whatever happened made HD avoid the place.

But he offered to accompany XD so easily, and without a trace of regret on his face. HD just simply shrugged. “Well, I need to start going back to the Overworld sooner or later. And this might be a good easing in. I’d just be there less than a day. Plus, you said Dream would have his friend with him so I’m sure Dream wouldn’t mind you having one too.”

“Oh!… Then-Then yes! If you could!” XD felt his heart lift with excitement. “It wouldn’t be unfair of me to have company. And Dream likes you! So it’ll be perfect!”

For the first time in a while, XD felt excited on the idea of meeting with Dream. Years of mistakes XD promised he would make right, and he’d help Dream through whatever he was going through. It wouldn’t be too late. XD promised himself he’d fix this.

[godsiblingaskblog]

So it seems reward tickles work really well on 4K ajfjfjdk but the real question is do they work on anyone else? >:3 and who is the most likely one to give them out? Anyone can answer :D

number 29 with lee XD and ler Dream? Maybe a lil switchy-up in there too?

I'm starved for lee XD content, I needs more of this cutie pie god 🥺

from this prompt list!

29. “If you tickle me I cannot guarantee your safety.”

“Give up, Dream!” XD chuckled as they watched the smaller boy wiggle in their arms, Dream‘s face buried against their neck. XD tweaked a particularly sensitive spot on his side which made Dream push his face into XD’s neck a little more forcefully, now leaning his whole cheek against the side of it. There was a sudden squeak that Dream recognized was not his, and noticed the lack of tickles he was receiving. With those two things in mind, a light bulb went off in Dream‘a head - he had tickled XD.

“Give up? More like I’m just getting started.” The speed runner smirked against the base XD’s neck, turning his head slightly back and forth to allow his stubble to tickle the God even more.

“D-Dreheam! I’m serious!” XD pleaded, trying to pull Dream’s face out from under their chin but failed due to the giggles making them weaker than usual. “If you tickle me, I cannot guarantee your safety.”

XD began to panic as they felt Dream’s grin pull wider and wider, eventually maxing out in size as he went back to rubbing his stubble all over the very sensitive neck with precision and accuracy.

“Well good news for you, XD,” The blonde stopped rubbing his face briefly to speak, the smile practically seeping through his words and flustering XD to no end. “That’s a risk I’m willing to take.”

Dream took a big breath, being sure to make a big show of it before he quickly pressed his lips against the warm skin before him, blowing a huge raspberry and wiggling his head back and forth. XD’s laughs turned high pitched and chirpy as they attempted to bring their shoulder up to dislodge Dream, but it seemed as if he had made a home there in the crook of XD’s neck.

And even though it tickled like hell, XD decided they didn’t mind too much. In fact, they were certain that Dream could stay there as long as he’d like.

[fluffallamaful]

Bro, wake up brain has returned, could you imagine Dream’s reaction to seeing 4K absolutely take apart XD

🥺🥺 sleeepppyytyyyyyyy

ok yes especially if we’re talking about specifically coven’s au, where dream has only recently found out that XD is ticklish (from george). it would be such a shock for him to see just how hopeless his all-powerful brother’s fight is against 4K’s.

like for him to see XD beg and plead and laugh so helplessly. for him to see how ruthless 4K is (i’ve realised that this hc is even more epic if dream has only just recently met 4K, or if he at least hasn’t been tickled by him before).

also if 4K starts comparing the two while dream is watching. like if he starts wondering allowed if dream would also be this ticklish in ‘this spot’. “Dream are your armpits this ticklish?” kinda thing. i adore that they’re both so embarrassed to be compared to each other, and i adore that 4K would be so fast to pick up on this

i adore this image so much 🥺 like so so much with dream all blushy and gobsmacked watching his brother be tickles to pieces like AHHH 😭

Hands On

Somewhere Only We Know

Word count: 1321

Warning: Kissing.

George just refused to believe him. Man, he was cute.

“Everybody is ticklish!”, he insisted for the fifth time that day.

“I’m not like everybody.”, XD said with all the fondness in the world. George grinned up at him. The human was still struggling with the concept of just how XD could read him, but he was learning. Between them floated silent promises for what would come later.

~•~

George was pretty serious about this. They had to separate for a bit with plans to meet at night. In that time, George had piled the middle of his living room with blankets and pillows. XD glowed with minty-green excitement.

“Shut up.”, George giggled and shook his head.

“You’re silly.”, he said to make him roll those pretty eyes.

XD settled down into the strange nest of blankets and got comfy.

“Am I good like this?”, he asked as he gestured down to his usual outfit. George only nodded and straddled his waist before squeezing at his sides. XD smiled, but it wasn’t effective.

George pouted, then squeaked as he was flipped over on to his back and XD took his same position.

“Hey!”, he protested.

“It’s my turn.’, XD smirked and squeezed George’s sides as he had. George squealed loudly and shoved at the hands.

“No! You already know!”, he laughed and squirmed into the blankets. “Okay! Okay!”.

XD laughed and let George resume his positon on top. He was much gigglier now.

“Where are you going to try next?”, XD grinned mischievously. George looked over his body and hesitated. Knowing he would be tickled in the same spot really made him pause.

“I don’t want you to tickle me back.”.

“I don’t care.”, XD laughed again. George huffed. He loved that noise and wanted to be able to make it happen whenever he wanted. The amused smile on XD’s face told him he knew what he was thinking.

“Shut up.”, he said before pinching softly around where his neck met his shoulders. XD only let it go on for a few seconds before he flipped George and did the same thing, making him giggle hysterically. He scrunched up and shook his head wildly, not expecting the feeling to be so tickly. He shrieked when XD wouldn’t let up.

“Okay, please!”.

“You’re always begging.”, XD smirked and pressed George further into the blankets so that he could get at the spot better. George squealed and twisted into them, laughing.

“XD!!”.

It wasn’t long before they were flipped again and George was wobbling as he giggled in XD’s lap.

“I’m too scared to try anywhere else.”, he admitted.

“You’re so silly.”, XD smiled and shook his head. He felt all the love in the world pool in his chest for his little mortal. “Going to admit defeat?”. George shook his head, failing to fight off his grin.

The human hummed softly and straightened out XD’s shirt as he thought.

“Is there anywhere anyone hasn’t tried before?”, George asked. XD only shook his head. His eyes trailed down to the god’s large hands. It took everything in him not to squirm at the idea of being tickled again. “This isn’t fair!”.

XD laughed and flipped them again. He hovered over the pouty human.

“You’re the cutest thing I’ve ever seen in my life.”, he murmured. George whined and looked away.

“Shut up, XD.”.

“I’m serious! And I’ve seen a lot of things, George.”. George grabbed a pillow from next to them and quickly smacked XD with it. “Hey!”.

In an instant, they were wrestling. Both giggling as they fought to be the one on top. When George got on top again, he swung the pillow ridiculously hard at XD’s face.

“George!”, he yelled and grabbed him by the waist, twisting him down into the blankets. Quick hands crawled up his shirt to attack his ribs. George screamed and jolted.

“No!”.

“You’re such a little shit.”, XD shook his head in amusement before ducking down to bury his face in the squirmy human’s neck. George squealed and shoved uselessly at the weight on top of him. XD’s tickles were light and teasy, but George was just way too worked up. He giggled hysterically, kicking his legs and squirming. XD bit his neck playfully, making him yelp.

“You’re like a million pounds! Hey!”, he shrieked as the tickling turned more intense at his insult. “I’m sorry! I’m sorry!”.

XD pulled away after a few more seconds, just smiling down at his giggly human. The love was right there at the edge, so ready to overflow. He wanted to crush George to his chest until they became one. He wanted to eat him alive.

Before George could catch his breath, XD stole it again with a kiss. George made a little excited noise as he wrapped his arms around XD’s neck. They melted together in the soft nest George had made them. Under XD, he was so small. Their lips moved sweet and slow as XD’s hands trailed along George’s body. He shivered when the touch was sensitive, whining into the kiss. The clumsy smiles moved together. His fingers tangled softly into XD’s curls.

XD pulled away when he realized how breathless George was. The boy panted softly as he settled with his arms up in the mess of blankets.

“You’re gorgeous.”, he murmured. George giggled dizzily, flushed and pretty. “Catch your breath.”, he demanded playfully. George laughed and shoved him.

“I’m sorry I’m not a freak that doesn’t need to breathe!”. XD laughed and buried his face in George’s neck, delighting in the surprised squeak. He nuzzled softly, soaking in every bit of the moment he could. George was so happy and soft. So his. XD nudged his chin carefully into the spot where George’s neck met his shoulders and the mortal squealed loudly. “XD!”, he yelped. How was everything he did so addicting?

George scrunched up as the cutest giggles bubbled out of him.

“I hate you!”, he squeaked, trying and failing to shove the tickly chin away.

“Sure…”. XD murmured and nipped the side of his neck to make him gasp. George whined loudly, torn between the two conflicting feelings. “Yeah? Do you want to use your words?”.

“You’re an idiot.”.

“Try again.”, XD warned in a low voice, making George giggle.

“Kiss me?”.

George squealed as XD grabbed him and pinned his arms above his head in the blankets.

“I’m sorry!”, he cried out instinctively. XD only chuckled and ducked his head down to press him further into the blankets with a kiss. George sighed into it happily. He was flustered and on the brink of more giggles, but excitedly kissing back. George didn’t know it, but his body had been begging XD to pin it in place. He whimpered softly and squirmed in the hold.

Like this; he was as helpless as he was safe. It was easy to put trust in XD. All of it. The god would do anything to make George happy…even if it was unspoken. He didn’t have to open his mouth and spill his secrets to get what he wanted. XD simply read it. Even if he couldn’t admit it. Even if he didn’t know he wanted it. XD knew better and he could give himself over to the god completely.

George didn’t know what love was. Not really. He hoped he expressed whatever he felt in the kiss. That the slow movement of his lips and the little smiles he couldn’t fight back would show XD his feelings.

XD was all-knowing. To be known is to be loved, right?

~•~

“Hey!”, George yelled as he sat up suddenly.

“Huh?”, XD mumbled back sleepily. They had fallen into a quiet cuddle, dozing in and out of reality.

“I didn’t finish tickling you!”.

“What? George, I’m not ticklish!”, XD sat up and shook his head in exasperation.

In a flash, he was tackled back into the blankets.

enjoy!!

--

"Well, I think I deserve to try them out on you at some point too, don't you think? So I wouldn't test me either, Georgie."

DreamXD's words rang out into the cool air of George's bedroom, immediately followed by a silence so tense George swore he could hear a pin drop.

Not as fast as his heart slipped and crashed into his stomach, however.

"N-no, no I-I don't think you have to do that…" George said nervously, leaning back and placing his hands on the bed behind him to brace himself as he scooted away from XD.

"No?" XD replied, pushing himself to sit up so he was directly facing George, looking down at him. The tinted glow emitting from under their mask was still bright pink, but the smile that was peeking out from below the curved white edge turned sinister– all pointy teeth and sharp corners that George knew all too well. "And why's that?"

George's words caught in his throat at XD's sudden change in demeanor, unable to stop the nervous chuckle that made its way out from his throat. He pushed himself further back, further away from XD, and curled his knees up to his chest.

"Be- because, it's just- it's just unnecessary, right? Don't you think-" George cut himself off with a sharp gasp as his back hit the wall, realizing he had pushed himself as far back as he possibly could without breaking down and reorganizing his atoms in a different spot, but XD was still closing in on him. After a few more seconds, XD was close enough to kneel in front of George with his knees resting on either side of George's body, completely boxing him in and making it nearly impossible for him to escape.

And even if he could, XD would catch him in a millisecond, so quickly he wouldn't be able to think about his actions until it was already too late.

"I-I… XD–"

"Aww, what's wrong? Poor little baby George can't take what he dishes out?" George wasn't sure if it was just his nerves or if XD was doing it on purpose, but their voice seemed to have a much more sinister echo to it now– almost doubling in tone, one half smooth and soft and the other low and gravelly. It made George's heart practically jump into his mouth, and he pressed his lips together to hold in his giggles. "Don't look so helpless, Georgie. You weren't so nervous when you were preparing so torture me! What's changed?"

"XD, wait–"

"I don't wanna wait, where's the fun in that?" XD cut him off, reaching up with his lower set of hands to rest them on George's sides. George tensed immediately at the contact, grabbing at their wrists and trying to push them away.

"Ehex–"

"No no, we can't have any of that, now can we?" They mumbled, their voice dangerously close to George's ear with the way they leaned in, reaching their upper set of hands down to grab George's arms and hold them out in front of him, just out of the way enough that their tickles wouldn't be bothered. George pulled at his arms instinctively, shaking his head and squirming once he remembered the other set of hands were still on his sides.

George never realized how useful an extra set of arms could be for tickling, but he did not like how he was finding out.

"NO! Noho, XD, no, we– we can find another person for you to test this on! Like– like Karl! Or Sapnap, or Foolish, maybe even Tina! She- she just moved into Kinoko, that– that would be a nice welcoming gesture, wouldn't it?" George attempted to reason, pulling at his arms, but the grip on his wrists remained strong.

"But we have so much time to test out other people. Right now, I want to test it out on you." XD explained with a tilt of his head, letting his fingers tap against George's sides.

"But whyhy?"

"It's only fair!" And with that, XD let his fingers wiggle up and down George's sides, his masked face seeming to brighten as George burst into giggles and squirmed around like his life depended on it.

"Ehehex dehehee!" George said through squeaky laughter, feeling his face heat up a little. He pushed himself as far into the wall behind him as he could, squirming side to side in an attempt to dislodge XD's fingers, but only making it worse for himself as he simply pressed into them more. "XD plehehehease!"

"Wow, I can definitely see why people do this so much, this is so fun."

"Nohoho ihit's nohot!" George protested, shaking his head. He let out a squeal when XD's fingers shifted down towards his hips, flinching and pulling at his wrists as they poked right above his hip bones. "Dohon't!"

"Oh, that's a good spot, huh?" XD's tone was even more teasing now, voice still echoing around the room and making George blush even harder.

"Nohohoho!" George exclaimed, shaking his head rapidly before leaning it back against the wall.

"Oh! George, George, idea, I have an idea, okay?" XD said, voice full of excitement and enthusiasm, pausing to hold George's sides for a second when they got the idea. "Uh, here, which tickles more, this?" He returned to his earlier actions, using his middle fingers and thumbs to lightly squeeze just above George's hip bones. George's giggles started back up as he flinched again, his back arching at the repeated feeling. "Orrrrr… this?" XD transitioned as they slipped their hand up George's t-shirt.

"Wahahait nonono- NOHO!" George's laughter jumped up in volume as XD moved one hand to scribble at his tummy, fingers wiggling lightly against his bare skin.

"Which one?" XD's voice was strictly curious, no malicious or teasing lilt to it at all, but George still felt his face heat up as he thought about it.

"Ihi dohohon't knohow! I cahan't–" George was cut off by his own giggles as XD's hands moved to repeat both actions.

"Come onnnn, Georgie, tell me which one! Is it one?" XD's fingers went back to just squeezing George's hips, only giving him a few seconds to react before jumping to his tummy again. "Or two?"

"OKAY- okahahay! I-Ihihihit's all bahahad buhut– but I thihink ohone is worse,"

"Okay, good, good. How about… one," XD said with a chuckle, keeping up the poking and squeezing at his hip bones. "Or… two!" XD pushed his hands further up George's shirt, lightly scratching at his higher ribs near his underarms. George's laughter went higher in pitch, littered with squeaks, hiccups, and breathy giggles as he tried to pull his arms in to clamp down on the offending fingers. He dropped his head back in defeat when XD simply slid their fingers up George's arms from his wrists to his biceps, pulling them further out so his arms were resting on XD's shoulders. "Well? What's worse, hm?"

"TWOHOHO! Ihit's twoho, juhust stohohop swihitching like thahahat!" George giggled out, nose scrunching with his smile and fingers curling into fists as XD moved just a bit too close to his armpits.

"Alright, great! Okay, now, uh… this, or… this?" XD's fingers trailed down, pushing around George to lightly scratch at his back, swiping up and down his spine and wiggling on the back of his ribs. George let out a loud squeal, immediately arching his back away from the touch and hiding his face in the space between his arm and XD's shoulder.

"AHAHA NOHO! Thahahat one's wohohorse! Thahat ohohone ihis wahahay wohorse!"

"Yeah?" XD asked, tilting his head down so his echoed voice traveled directly into George's ear, which earned him another squeak as he tried to pull his shoulder up to his ear.

"YEHEHES, XD-hehe, plehehease stohohop ihihit!" George's arms curled around XD's neck to pull him closer as his fingers squeezed into fists again, his biceps still held by XD and high pitched giggles being muffled by where his face was hidden in the crook of XD's neck.

"Hey, c'mon now, come back. It's not as fun if you hide," XD said softly, and George could tell just from his tone that he was doing an overexaggerated fake pout to get George to oblige. XD trailed their hand down George's spine and out from under his shirt, then back up on top of the fabric until they reached the nape of George's neck.

"No!" George squealed, instinctively curling in on himself as much as possible, opening his mouth to protest but instead gasping and bursting into breathy, high pitched giggles as XD moved to the sides of his neck. "Stohohohop, yohohou– nahahaha!"

"C'mooooonnnn, let me see that smile, Georgie," XD teased even further, earning an embarrassed whine in response when he scratched his nails just underneath George's chin. This finally caused George to pull back from where he was hiding his face, head tilting up to try to escape the soft tickles that kept following wherever his head moved anyway. His face flushed bright red when XD chuckled at him, and his eyes squinted due to his wide smile as he stared up at XD. "There we go!"

"Thahahat's sohoho not fahahahair!" George tried to turn his head to the side and tilt his chin downwards, but XD simply used their pointer finger to pull his face back to look straight up at them. XD's hold on his biceps had fallen and George's arms pulled back immediately, fingers going to wrap loosely around XD's wrists as they cupped his face gently. The tickling had paused as they both smiled and laughed together, but the fluttering in George's tummy kept him giggling as if there were phantom fingers ghosting up and down his sides.

Or, more accurately, that was actually just XD's other set of hands. George had forgotten about those.

"Ihi cahaha– thihis ihis– this isn't fahair," George repeated, shaking his head as much as he could when XD still held his head in place, looking into where he assumed the god's eyes would be under their mask. "Ihihi let yohou hide!"

"Well, no one told you to do that, to be fair," XD countered. "It's more fun if I can see you. And it helps me learn more about the art of tickling! Don't you want me to learn, George?"

"Nohot anymohohore!" George protested, reaching out and flattening his hands against XD's chest to give them a few more moments to explore despite his words. XD couldn't help but laugh along with him, but they could sense that George was actually getting tired, and decided they should probably wrap up soon.

But not without a grand finale, of course.

XD slid their fingers up George's sides, still over his t-shirt now to allow George at least a small amount of protection. He wiggled his fingers all the way up, nails scratching at his sensitive ribs and sides, before slowing down just before his underarms to build up the anticipation. George caught on immediately, pulling his arms back suddenly and clamping them against his sides.

"Nohoho, nohot fair! Not fahahair!" George whined out once again, shaking his head and curling in on himself. XD simply resituated them, pushing himself a few inches closer to George and tightening his legs to force George's knees closer to his chest. George gasped at the sudden pressure, pushing back against the wall again and pushing his hands and knees forward against XD's chest to attempt to move the God away. His attempt proved to be worthless, and he looked no more threatening than a kitten stretching out its paws– it didn't help that the squeaky sound he made was frighteningly similar to one as well.

"We're almost done, George, just relax," XD pretended to soothe, but his voice was too smug for George not to realize he was being sarcastic. The point was driven home when XD's higher set of arms took hold of his elbows again, holding them slightly out to the sides so George couldn't clamp them down anymore.

"NOHO! Ehehex DeeDee! Whahahat the hehehehell!" George protested, pulling at his arms, but quickly the hands were wiggling further under his arms and he was lost to laughter once again. "Nohohoho, Gohohod, whyhy?"

"God? Wow, I appreciate you using my formal title," XD teased, making George scrunch up his nose and shake his head in disapproval.

"Yohohou're such ahan ihi-idiohohot!" George said through his giggles, no bite to his tone whatsoever, but XD still decided to take it and run.

"Oh, I'm an idiot, am I? Well, would an idiot know to do this after just a day of learning about tickling?"

"Nononono, NO–" George wss frantic as he felt XD's fingers slide around to his back again, letting out a sharp yelp when XD's pointer fingers suddenly drilled into the spot right in the middle of his ribs on either side of his spine. George arched forward immediately, practically throwing himself against XD's body and forcing his way into a hug. His arms wrapped around the God's shoulders, pulling them so close that the wind would've been knocked out of the had they been a mortal, and he shoved his face into the space between his own arm and XD's neck that he had been so rudely removed from earlier on. "NOHOHOHO, PLEHEHEASE, NOT THEHEHERE! Thahahat– thahat wahahahas the wo-OHORST OHOHONE!" George screamed, his back pushed so far forward that his knees were able to slip down XD's front and wind up with him in a kneeling position similar to XD himself.

"Wow, I didn't think you could be this ticklish!" XD wondered aloud, voice nonchalant, earning a choked out whimper and whine from George between his hysterical laughter.

"EHEHEX‐ PLEHEASE, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, I CAHAHA–" His laughter was cut off by a loud, squeaky inhale, and judging by the squirming body in their arms and the smacking against their own back XD could tell it was time to call it quits.

"Alright, alright, I'll stop. Humans really need to work on their stamina," XD explained with a roll of his eyes and a shake of his head, but he still rubbed his palms up and down George's back to help soothe him.

"Ihihi… never, ever, ehever… should have tahaught you thahat…" George sighed out under his breath, filling his lungs with deep inhales and slow exhales to get his chest back to normal.

"I think you loved it. I mean, you didn't really fight back once I had a handle on you."

"Shut– don't– oh my god, don't say it like that!" George whined even more, nuzzling his head in further to hide more and giggle into XD's shoulder.

"Fine. But we both know the truth."

"Shhhhh."

XD chuckled at that and removed his hands from George's back for barely a few seconds before George was whining at the lack of soothing touches, but his whines were soon calmed by XD playing a blanket around his shoulders and moving them to a more comfortable sitting position. He then let one hand return to George's back, and the other went up to play with his hair. They sat like that for a while, listening to the sounds of George's quick breathing and the fabric of XD's cloak shifting in the breeze from the open window.

"Now," XD began after George's breathing had calmed down significantly and his shoulders slumped into XD's chest. "Tell me more about trying this out on other people?" The God requested softly, still running his pointy nails through George's hair and scratching at his scalp, and pulling an additional tiny giggle out of the smaller mortal in his arms.

George was beginning to fear he'd created a monster.

He wouldn't say he regretted it, though.
