Tsukishima & Ticklish Reader

Platonic + 50. “So why don’t we see who’s more ticklish?” Requested by @wertzunge for my 1K Followers Event🌻

"HAHAHAHA! Nohoho- ahahahack! Quihihihit- ghahaha!"

....That was his voice, right? Tsukishima Kei? Wow. What a way to come home. You slowly entered your apartment, taking in the hysterical sound of his contagious laughter.

Usually your roommate Tsukishima was the one who got home later since the museum where he worked nowadays was a bit further away from home.

Usually he was the quiet type.

Usually he never even laughed much...

But this. This was really something else.

Your eyes widened to see him sprawled on the kitchen floor of your shared apartment. His brother Akiteru was tickling him! To death!

"Brohohother! I'm so sohohorry-ahahaha!"

"Huh, what was that? Say that again?"

"SOhoho-rrahahaha!" You had never seen him so happy (?!) before, with a huge smile on his face, tears sparkling his eyes from laughing so much, his arms wrapped around his own stomach and his feet with those geeky dinosaur socks kicking hysterically.

Tsukishima was really laughing like this. Adorable.

"Plehehease!" he begged. Akiteru was merciless and continued to tickle his ribs and armpits.

"Right? I think you've learned your lesson then. Oh!" He finally noticed you had come home, and you waved awkwardly at him. Akiteru got back up and greeted you.

"Hi there! You see. Little ticklish Kei here was so nice to show off that bratty attitude again to his big bro. And that while I went out of my way to pick him up from work and give him a ride home."

You covered your mouth and smothered a laugh. "I s-see," you giggled.

"He's an adult now, so he shouldn't act like a brat. Or else, I show him how we deal with brats. Right? If he ever gives you an attitude, remember that!"

He bent down and ruffled Tsukishima's hair, then winked at you and excused himself. You were too flabbergasted to even offer Akiteru a drink and some nice hospitality, but looked like he was busy enough.

"What are you grinning for?"

Tsukishima's sudden cold remark made you jump in surprise, and you looked at him. Within mere seconds he had gotten back onto his feet. His cheeks were still slightly flushed, but instead of that huge smile, all you could see was this cold and serious expression you were so familiar with.

"Geez, that Akiteru," Tsukishima sighed, not even waiting for your answer. He opened the fridge and took out some cold water, recovering from the tickle attack by drinking some.

Looking at him like this you could hardly imagine that....

"Pfft!" you accidentally snorted as soon as the fresh memory of Tsukishima getting wrecked on the floor flashed before your eyes.

"Hmm?" He glanced at you. "What's so funny?" he asked again. Was he that clueless or was he just playing dumb?

"I never knew you're so...."

"So what?"

You really had a hard time fighting the uncontrollable giggle fit, but you didn't want to embarrass him or piss him off by laughing into his face!

"S-s-so... So...." Maybe you shouldn't say it after all, but he was staring at you with such a serious and demanding look. Which only made it funnier, and scarier.

"Ticklish... Hehehe," you giggled sheepishly, covering your mouth.

"Huh?" Tsukishima put down the water bottle and suddenly approached you. You jumped back in surprise until your back hit the kitchen counter.

"Me, ticklish huh? What a rude claim."

You literally just saw it! How could he- gah! He came at you, trapping you against the counter, and you were surprised when you suddenly felt him poke your side.

"So why don’t we see who’s more ticklish?" he said. Eh! This was never about th-

"HEhe! Hahahang on, t-that's not necessary-hehehe!" you laughed, trying to break free, but he caged you in effectively and tickled both your sides. This was what you got for laughing at him!

All the pent up giggles you had been fighting back just now came flowing right out of your mouth, and you couldn't stop them. Not this time.

"Tsuhuhuki-gahaha!" Your knees gave in, but he merely followed you down. Despite being his roommate for quite a while, you continued to learn new things about him. Like how he wasn't the type to blush and lock himself in his room after his brother embarrassed him like that in your presence.

No, to your surprise he appeared to be the type that wouldn't accept getting teased without some retaliation. And you were barely teasing him! This had to be his way of dealing with his embarrassment.

"I'm sohohhorry! I wahahasn't lahahaughing ahahat you!" you lied through hysterical laughter. You rolled from side to side, but he broke through your weak defense with ease and tickled your sides and tummy without mercy.

"You sure are laughing now," he said sarcastically. Pffft! He was mean! Wicked! Evil! You tried to yell something but could only laugh and squeal.

Until finally you did manage to form another word. An important one.

"HAHA-MEHEHERCY! M-merceehehehe!" you begged. You hadn't even considered how ticklish you were before snickering in this ticklish guy's face.

"So, mercy you say hm?" he sighed. He wiggled his fingers once more over your stomach, making you shriek, and then he finally got back up and sighed, stretching his tall body.

"Don't you remember anything my brother did, or said. Rather remember this." To remind you, he bent down again and squeezed your sides one last time. The scream errupting from you startled you both.

To your surprise, he chuckled, and there was even a fond and gentle-looking smile on his face.

"I actually also never knew. That you're so ticklish." Then looking satisfied he finally left you alone so you could wheeze and squirm like an exhausted worm on the floor.

That guy! But that was a genuine smile he gave you, not caused by tickling.

And although he just tickled you to death, you felt like the little surprise encounter with Akiteru caused you to grow even closer to you usually cold and bitter roommate!

Convenient Interventions

Tea Type: Sweet Tea (Fluff)

Potential Triggers: None for this one! ^^

Pairing: Oikawa & Tsukishima/ Kageyama

Length: 638

Summary: Tsukishima realizes Kageyama is having trouble focusing, and Oikawa, helpful friend that he is, decides to help him relax.

A/N: Gods Kageyama is such a cute Lee and I feel like these two would be lethal Lers, especially to him. Poor Tobio-

“Man, you really suck today- can’t focus King?”

Kageyama whirled and barked a retort. 

“Shut it, Four Eyes no-one asked you!”

“So aggressive. Scary~ What, did you not sleep last night, stressing about Oikawa again?”

Kageyama flinched and Tsukishima smirked to himself. 

Bingo.

He marched over to where Tsukishima waited on the sidelines and started ranting. 

“Why would I even care that he’s here- I’m gonna wipe the floor with him!”

“I’m sure that’s why you’re trembling.”

Tsukishima grabbed his arm, holding it up so he’d see his own hand. 

“Wow, you’re that on edge cause of little old me? I’m flattered Kageyama~”

Kageyama tried to whirl to face Oikawa but Tsukishima still had a firm grip on his arm. 

“You- don’t know what you’re talking about!”

“Oh, don’t I? You’d always get the pregame jitters- remember how we used to help you out with that~?”

There was a lilt evident now, and Tsukishima couldn’t deny he was curious, especially as Kageyama turned his attention back to him and tried to squirm out of his grip when Oikawa began to leisurely walk over. 

“Lemme go- this is stupid!”

“Aw, don’t be like that! I just wanna help.”

“No! I-”

“Don’t tell me your new teammates don’t know Tobio. That just won’t do! Tsukishima- you wouldn’t mind helping me dispel Kageyama’s fears, would you?”

Tsukishima probably should’ve been a good teammate and released Kageyama- but he could admit he was sadistically curious. 

“Whatever- if it’ll help him play at his best..”

He dismissed, raising his chin as he pulled Kageyama towards him, readjusting him a moment and putting his arms under his to hold the squirming setter against his body. 

Oikawa beamed at both of them, easily speaking over Kageyama’s cursing. 

“Kageyama here- is actually really ticklish. Here, I’ll show you! It’s the best way to make him shut that big mouth of his and make him squeal.”

He closed in before Kageyama could kick him away and dug into the boy’s sides but he held firm, glaring at him for all he was worth and biting his lip. 

Unfortunately for Kageyama, his smirk only widened at the challenge. 

“Ah, he’s playing hard to get. That’s fine by me- it’s more fun when I get to break him!”

Tsukishima couldn’t help snickering. 

“Well at least now your fear of him makes sense. Too ticklish to take it? The ones who talk a big game like you always have some sort of childish weakness like this. Wait till the others find out.”

Kageyama turned red, his blush raging and very evident and Oikawa encouraged it further with his own laughter, dancing his fingers up to scribble merrily at his ribs making Kageyama finally burst out laughing, unable to help himself. 

“Ahaha! Wow, you’re a mean one! Teasing is the perfect way to break that stoic facade of his. Isn’t that right Tobio?" 

"You guys are the whohohorst!! Cut it ohohohout!”

“We’re just trying to help Tobio- you don’t have to pretend you hate it.”

Oikawa cooed.

“I’m not pretending!! You guys shuhuhuhuck!”

“Your blush says otherwise. I didn’t even know it could go to your ears like that.”

Tsukishima quipped, blowing air into it and making Kageyama squeal. He could deny it all he wanted but the blonde blocker felt how relaxed he’d become. This really had helped him unwind. 

Still, he decided to be nice. Just this once. 

“Alright, I don’t want him too tired out before we beat you- thanks for the information though Captain.”

Tsukki finally released him and Oikawa jumped back with a laugh as Kageyama panted and glared at him.  He shook himself off and seemed dead set on taking the other down, storming off to practice with Hinata, and Tsukishima couldn’t help but snicker. 

This information would definitely have its uses down the line.

Someone recommended this soooo enjoyyyyyy!!!

Mighty Kings fall!!!

Hiii, I'm writing another haikyuu fic. I got a lot of likes and reblogs, so thanks a lot!

As always, Lee kageyama is my only fav thing to write! Enjoy then!

Warning spoilers alert

"Truth or dare, Noya?"

Nishinoya hummed in thought, the libero grinned "Dare"

Tanaka sneered now "Oh yeah? I dare you to bounce the ball without dropping it to the ground for at least five minutes."

"So mean of ya, Tanaka!" Was the shortest fellow's response, and surprisingly, after five tries, he did manage to keep the ball stable with perfect receives to himself.

"Nice Noya! Alright, now Tsukishima..." it was Nishinoya's turn to offer either a dare or a truth to him. The libero added, however, "But you used all your three truths, so it's a dare, buddy."

Everyone snickered at Tsukki's plight as the blocker pushed his glasses irritably.

"I dare you..." Noya takes some time to consider his dare, then his eyes scan the players and noticed Kageyama, "Aha! I dare you to make Kageyama laugh -very loud!"

Tsukishima froze now, eyeing Kageyama wearily. "What regal punishment will I get to assault the king with such frivolous cause?"

"Oi!"

Noya grinned, now pushing spikes further up as he spoke, "You see... you both need to lighten up, and Kageyama could use a laugh... look at his frown..."

It's a dare after all, and Kageyama wasn't equally as thrilled as anyone else in their court.

Now Daichi watched Tanaka, Noya, Tsukishima (who was forced to the game), Hinata, Yameguchi, and Kageyama (who was also forced)...then he smiled "Seems like the kids are having fun for once"

Sugawara grinned and used a chopping hit on his head. "You sound like a Grandpa captain"

"Use jokes, Tsukki!" Hinata's expression was exaggerating, and Kageyama wondered why he was so thrilled in this."I'll make sure you win against the stoic King of the court!"

"Would you shut up!" Kageyama was ignored.

Tsukishima wondered, maybe it would be fun to see the king laugh and be embarrassed later on. Might as well try it.

But still, jokes isn't his forte. "Where do the crazy people go if they were lost?"

Kageyama answered blankly. "They are crazy so they take the psychopath"

Widening his eyes, Hinata never expected kageyama to know the answer, "Wait, you heard jokes before?"

He frowned. "My sister used to tell them they're pretty boring and common so... that was a very weak attempt..." he turned to Tsukishima with a smug look."You can't win this dare. "

Motivated Hinata turned to Noya "Can't I try! I wanna see him laugh too"

Noya thought knowing its against the rules... but then before he could refuse he heard the third years approaching "What's this? Make Kageyama burst out laughing...? Count me in"

Kageyama was shocked. "W-what? You can't do that... Tsukishima is only dared to do so..."

Noya clapped his hands in enthusiasm "Now I'm pumped let's finish him off!"

Kageyama felt like they took this way too seriously. He realised how some jokes were lame and common, especially from Tsukishima. Sugawara's had a funny sound effect, which sort of seemed funny that Hinata burst out laughing. Tanaka's absurd face contortions were out of this world. Noya joined in with equal talents as Tanaka and Hinata got worse jokes which didn't make sense to anyone at all...

Whatever obstacle they tried... nothing broke the star setter.

Tired they were, Daichi seemed to see how everyone was giving their all. But he remained watching the spectacle with interest along with Asahi, Yameguchi, and Ennoshita.

Kageyama looked at Tsukishima now with a smirk. "Seems like not even the bird brain can handle such a simple task as this"

"Yeah a Kings sense of humour is much wicked than you think"

Everyone was ready to give up but that was until Hinata whispered something to Tsukishima.

"Psst..." he rapidly began spilling the joyous secret.

Tsukishima's eyes widened. Wait...? He should've done that at first... why didn't he think of that?

He slowly sneaked a couple of fingers towards Kageyama, who was unaware of the dangers coming towards him.

A squeak.

That was all it took from him the moment Tsukki poked his side.

He glared now "Oi, four eyes don't touch me!"

Tsukishima grinned widely, kageyama froze now, seeing sinister darkness beneath his glasses. "Ah... I see now that I failed to see that someone with your personality tends to be a lot more sensitive than we think"

"H-huh...?" Kageyama was hovered over and Tsukishima was wiggling his fingers menacingly "Tell me your highness, are you ticklish?"

"No..." was a hesitant answer, and yet Kageyama clamped his arms down to avoid any room for Tsukishima to attack.

Hinata giggled brightly "Oh he is ticklish, alright! It was my idea!"

Noya snickered now "Shall we get him...?"

However or perhaps fortunately for Kageyama, Tsukishima stopped them. "This is my dare, I get to make the king lose his sanity.... you can try after I'm done."

Everyone snickered with villainy, and they were all ready to overthrow the king with his weakness.

"First I start here..."

Kageyama gasped but didn't laugh immediately when Tsukishima skillfully sneaked his long fingers on his waist, and Kageyama jolted but with no laugh still. He was squirming but also had the audacity to say, "Is that all you got skinny bastard? This is nothing!"

"Ah, ah, ah king wrong move... I was planning on going easy on you, but..." he raised his fingers as if he were playing a dramating piano piece."You are finished now..."

"Gah -wait!"

Kageyama felt those fingers now sneak at the back of his ribs he shrieked but didn't laugh immeidatelt. So Tsukishima was half satisfied with what he got, though he wanted to make him laugh more.

"I know ribs are bad for you, so maybe I got the wrong angle..." it was like a science experiment. Except he wasn't being dissected like frog... now he wished he was that frog.

"Y-you have the nerve t-toho be soho bohold!" Kageyama flinched and twitched from one side to another, he was good at concealing but he had underestimated his fellow first year.

"Andd I spy a tickle spot here!"

He certainly can tease. Kageyama broke into giggles when his higher ribs were targeted "I told you your ribs will get you in trouble!"

Hinata jumped on his butt now excited to join but remained still as the rest who were itching to join the fun.

"Laugh out loud... you are still giggling, so this doesn't count" Tsukki was already enjoying tormenting the setter. He was ready for the finale and Kageyama was anxious enough to glower at him but also fear foe the worst.

Starting him instantly, he began to flip him, realising where he was going. "OK! Wait... I give up. This has gone too, faaa-aaahahar!"

He shrieked out a laugh when a finger slid down his spine.

"Jackpot..." Tsukishima smirked "Now prepare for the hell you've been waiting for!"

He laughed. It was loud and contagious, bubbly and cute. nobody expected him to sound so cute.... not even Hinata. He heard grumpy giggles sure it was adorable too but this squeals and loud belly laughter was unfair!

"Ahhh, he's so cute..."It came from Noya, who was also waiting for his turn, "man Tsukki got the a pretty good dare I wanna mess with him Too!"

"DOHOHONT IHIHI GEHEHT A SAHAHAHAY IHIHIN THIHIHIS??" Kageyama yelled out through his laughter.

Daichi clapped now and Tuskki stopped in thst signal "I won.."

"Alright we'll mess with Kageyama after practice"

Everyone cheered on that while the youngest player was agast. "Haaah??? Captain! Nohohot you tooo!"

He was ignored yet again but ended up getting pokes from his orange friend, "Awwww, don't be upset sulky-yama shall I tickle it away?"

"Gehet off yohou human tangerine!" He pushed him off but then glowered at the guy with glasses who smirked back with a triumphant sneer."Don't let your guard down king now that your weakness is exposed"

"Bastard..." he grumbled.

Tickletober Day 8 - "I'm Not Ticklish"

lee!tsukishima ler!yamaguchi

Summary: Yamaguchi wants to know what side tsukishima is more ticklish on - the left or the right. However, Tsukishima claims he isn't ticklish...

A/N: binging haikyuu so i decided to write something for my favorite character, tsukishima! (posting this a day early)

-

Tsukishima sighed. He didn't know why he had agreed to let Yamaguchi do this... Maybe it was because he was cute when he asked, maybe it wasn't. Who knows?

"When will you be done?" Tsuki asked, a slight frown on his face.

Yamaguchi ignored his question - he hadn't even started with his experiment. He was desperate to figure out which side of the taller boy was more ticklish. His left thigh or his right thigh? His left knee or his right knee? The question went on and on, and Tadashi was determined to answer it.

He already had a prediction. Thanks to some supporting evidence from a practice match some time ago, he knew that Tsukishima's right side was more ticklish than the other. During the match, Tsuki had gotten a cramp in his left calve. Daichi had tried to remedy it with a brief massage - pushing and circling his thumbs across the sensitive area.

When that didn't work (which he 100% expected it would), the captain of the team became confused and thought he was massaging the wrong calve, so he moved on to the right one. Tsukishima was a giggly mess as soon as he was touched there.

"Alright. I'll begin here." Yamaguchi placed his index finger on his friend's right thigh. Tsuki was wearing shorts, so the area was largely exposed.

Yamaguchi slid his finger down Tsuki's thigh until he met his kneecap. He then slid it back up to the end of his shorts. Nothing. Not even a slight grin.

Tsukishima could see Yama's visible disappointment. "I've told you already, I am not ticklish." He cockily laid on his back, putting his hands behind his head - leaving Yamaguchi kneeled down beside him.

The boy huffed and puffed. "I can't accept that! Everybody is ticklish, even you, Tsukishima."

The blond scoffed, shaking his head. Did he really believe he wasn't ticklish? Yamaguchi was right - everyone is ticklish somewhere. Tsukishima was in for a rude awakening.

Tsukishima's confidence began to crumble when Yamaguchi slid his hand under his leg, softly tickling the bottom of his outstretched knee. He pressed his lips together to keep from giggling.

Clueless to the fact that with a little bit more effort at the spot he was at, he'd have Tsuki a ticklish mess, Yamaguchi decided to make his way down to his calve. He lightly traced circles with his fingernails on the taller boy's skin.

Lips still pressed together, Tsukishima was nearly unphased - only on the outside, though. On the inside, his heart was slowly beating faster and faster. He hadn't felt the ticklish sensations he was feeling now in a while. He slowly began to remember the way his brother, Akiteru, would tickle him when they were young... This scared him because, with those memories, he remembered just how ticklish he really was.

"Y-Yamaguchi, are you finished yet? I already told you, I'm not ticklish." Tsukishima scratched his neck, a nervous look on his face.

Yamaguchi noticed this, unfortunate for Tsukishima. He could tell that he was close to getting to a ticklish area, so he continued down the boy's leg.

When Yamaguchi reached Tsukishima's heel, he tried to pull his foot away but was quickly stopped by Yamaguchi placing his ankle in an armlock.

"Why are you trying to get away? I thought you said you weren't ticklish."

Tsukishima tried to reach Yamaguchi's body to get him away from his foot but was stopped once again. The boy had begun to claw his fingers up and down the middle blocker's heel, causing him to gasp and giggle.

"Ahaha, Yahahamaha! StohohoHOhOHop it!" Tsukishima didn't know how to react to this ticklish feeling... All he could do was laugh and laugh. And laugh some more.

"Wow~ Someone's right heel is ticklish. What about the left one?" Yamaguchi teased, swiftly snatching Tsukishima's left ankle and scratching at his heel.

Tsukishima bashed around, trying not to laugh. He held his lips together but they were immediately separated by sweet chuckles and snorts every single time.

Yamaguchi took notes. Although he was having fun wrecking poor Tsuki, he still genuinely wanted to find an answer to his question. And as far as heels go, he concluded that Tsukishima's left heel was more ticklish.

But what about Tsuki's sides? Or his armpits? The experiment continues... But at another time.

Yamaguchi released the ankles that were in his grip. He quickly crawled over to a pink-faced Tsuki, rubbing his back.

"Are you alright? Do you need some water?"

Tsukishima caught his breath and replied, "No. But, I do need..one thing."

Yama tilted his head, listening carefully. The least he could do was help out his friend after tickling the hell out of him.

"I need you to not try and get any revenge after this." Tsukishima smirked, pushing Yama to the floor and pinning his arms above his head. All of this happened so quickly, leaving the smaller boy in a blur.

However, he quickly realized what was happening after he felt a hand reach under his shirt and dig into his armpit.

"NuhohOHOHA! FuhUHUHAHA!" He yelped, kicking his feet all around. It was only fair that Tsuki got a bit of revenge, right..?

[shy-lee-chu]

I had a dream where the big ol bully tsukki was flirting with me and being nice to me. Oh gosh, I challenged him on a history subject without meaning to, like I sounded way too daring for a classmate he never had any sort of interaction before and he gave me a cute look of suprized, confident and kind of impressed, it was actually so very cute I'm losing my mind, HE WAS FLIRTING WITH ME IRHDIWJDOEKD

I am also sure he tickled me half to death at some point in the dream, but can't really remember how it exactly happened am so sad 😭

KUROTSUKKI KUROTSUKKI KUROTSUKKI AAAAAAAAAAAHHHH

*dies* (/jk)

Seriously though!! This fic has one of my favorite ships and it's so so so so so well written!! 😻😻

I loved how you portrayed Tsukishima's inner thoughts and feelings... and Kuroo... oh my goodness Kuroo made me weak in the knees >///////<

And the spots you covered in this fic and the flirty remarks while maintaining an sfw undertone... it's very rare to find this kind of good content and you did an amazing job... even more than usual!! 💚💚💚

*an accurate representation of me eating this masterpiece*

Wow Fantasstic Baby

Author's Note: The title is a reference to this song Fantastic Baby - BigBang and was inspired by a post by @ticklishfanart about Tsukishima's milky legs. Warning: This is a tickle fic, so if that's not something you want to see, feel free to ignore this post.

I've read the manga in full twice and own the whole manga set, so I think it's a crime I haven't written for Haikyuu yet. Enjoy this hellhole of a fic that I came up with at work and mostly wrote on the bus to and from work and at work in corners of breakrooms.

Mutuals tag: @otomiya-tickles @italeean @giggly-squiggily @myreygn @ticklygiggles @duckymcdoorknob @jettorii

Tsukishima likes to say that he enjoys massages. Yamaguchi, the bastard, likes to give him back massages during intense study sessions under the guise of trying to put him to sleep.

Additionally, Akiteru refers to him as a stick of bamboo, saying that he needs to learn how to “loosen up” a bit. He doesn’t like to admit it, but he is a stiff person. Since throwing himself into volleyball, his muscles ache all the time, so massages are also welcome to relieve his pain.

And he would like to say he’s enjoying the leg massage that Kuroo had offered to give him, but he’s too busy cackling to pay attention to how nice it feels.

“Really, here?” Kuroo asks while kneading into his calves as Tsukishima debates actually slamming his fists onto the ground. He didn’t even know that calves could be ticklish, let alone garner such a big reaction out of someone.

“Staahahaap,” Tsukishima begs, trying to yank his legs out of Kuroo’s grasp.

He doesn’t need to turn around to know there’s a smirk on the latter’s face. “But this is for your own good.” Kuroo pauses to skitter his fingers from the back of Tsukishima’s knees to just below his butt. “It’s not my fault you’re so ticklish. Plus, I kind of want to keep tickling you.”

Tsukishima fully smashes his face into his arms to hold back a scream.

And to Tsukishima’s utter, utter horror, Kuroo doesn’t miss his reaction.

“Oh? I always thought you had a nice ass, but I didn’t expect it to be so ticklish,” Kuroo says.

The sound that comes out of Tsukishima at the comment doesn’t sound human. “Damn, your ears sure turn red fast, don’t they?”

“Fuhahuck,” Tsukishima replies, giggling like the rattling sound of a snare drum when Kuroo starts pinching all over his ass. He’s thankful that they’re the only ones in the gym. Maybe personal practice was more useful than he originally thought. “Naaahahat there. Stohohop.”

“Not here?” Kuroo switches to spidering along the bottom of his butt, every once in a while, sneaking a hand to his inner thighs. “You sound so happy though.”

Lies. Straight-up lies. He’s not happy, he’s dying. Here lies Tsukishima Kei. Maybe Yamaguchi will miss him.

“Fine. I’ll move,” Kuroo says, digging into the back of Tsukishima’s quads.

In Tsukishima’s defense, he does not shriek…that loudly.

“Is this a good spot too?”

“Gohoho somewhere else,” Tsukishima pleads, feeling a mostly foreign wetness building in the corner of his eyes.

“Hmm? But I did what you asked…All right, I’ll be nice.”

Tsukishima already starts to regret asking Kuroo to move spots since he’s figured out that begging Kuroo to stop is falling on deaf ears.

“Ass, inner thighs, or hamstrings?” Kuroo asks.

Resisting the urge to roll his eyes or yell in frustration, Tsukishima settles on trying to compromise some more. “Thahaat’s not fair. I’ll piihick somewhere else. Ahahanywhere else.”

“Anywhere?” Kuroo hums, “Sorry, but you picked the wrong choice, my dear.”

My dear? Wrong choice, his ass. Tsukishima decides that he will be getting Kuroo back tenfold after this is all over. From what he’s overheard when Hinata babbles, Kenma should be willing to deluge Kuroo’s worst spot or spots.

He hopes it is spots.

The thought of revenge stops at the feeling of fingers scribbling all over the back and inner parts of his thighs and all around his ass. He’d like to think, but it tickles so much that he doesn’t register that the loud sound he hears is coming from him.

“Awww,” Kuroo coos, “Was that a snort I heard? Who knew you could look so pretty underneath that constant frown, especially in those cute little shorts.”

Tsukishima curses the volleyball shorts they have to wear. Right now, he’s wishing that they were just a tad longer. The electric feeling shooting up and down his legs leave him paralyzed.

Even if he wanted to pull them away, the thought of doing so is almost physically painful, so he can only lay there and laugh until he can feel tears dripping down his face. He doesn’t bother begging or pleading and just sticks to crying.

Part of him thinks laughing so hard for so long feels nice because he hasn’t laughed that much since middle school. Sometimes he finds himself chuckling when Yamaguchi makes funny faces when he’s thinking or snickering every time he looks at Kuroo’s bed hair and when Kuroo smirks at his opponents from across the net. Maybe he even laughs when he sees Kuroo messing around with Bokuto and Akaashi.

Oh.

Well, shit. Tsukishima figures that laughing and maybe tickling is okay with Kuroo and Yamaguchi. But only them. 

When he's tickled by Yamaguchi it reminds him of being a kid, before everything that happened to Akiteru. Okay, he might consider being tickled by his brother in the future. In all his pessimism and cynicism there's hope in there somewhere. That bright-eyed kid is still a part of him. 

With Kuroo, he finds himself melting. It's warm and sends clouds of floating, fuzzy sensations to fill his head and heart. 

Home. The feeling of home he decides. 

Kuroo's dexterous fingers are both torturous and comforting. It takes nearly every ounce of willpower in him not to beg for more instead. 

…What is wrong with him? Beg for more?

There are a couple of spots on Tsukishima’s butt that have him shrieking. It’s a high-pitched sound, reminding him of a younger, more innocent him. And, yeah, nope. He can forget about thinking again.

“I think I like this spot,” Kuroo says, pinching and wiggling his fingers in Tsukishima’s inner thighs.

Tsukishima slams his legs shut and traps Kuroo’s fingers in between them. He cackles even harder than when Kuroo was tickling his calves when this ordeal first started. “I dohohon’t,” he babbles.

“Look at you.” Tsukishima can hear the mock sympathy and slight pout in Kuroo’s voice. “Is someone too weak to handle a little tickling? Poor thing, taken down by a couple of fingers.”

He wants to push Kuroo’s hands away, but he settles on covering his face instead, not bothering to wipe the fresh set of tears out of his eyes.

“That cute face of yours is so red right now. It’s very pretty looking.”

His face heats up more at the comment. Besides volleyball, he’s not the kind of person who goes outside. Although he knows it might be nicer to study in a park or outside a café, he prefers the comfort of AC in his room or in a library. He feels pretty. So pretty. He’s been approached by girls or, more or less, Yamaguchi has been approached by girls, saying how handsome he is.

But for some reason, when Kuroo says it, it hits so much harder.

Tsukishima is ripped out of his thoughts by fingers dancing on his hamstrings midway down his thighs. More high-pitched giggles spill out of him as he grows weaker and weaker by the second.

After a few rounds of Kuroo dashing from each spot and sneaking a couple of swipes up his feet that leave him flinching despite feeling like putty, small hiccups break through his laughter which has almost gone silent.

The tickling stops almost immediately. Tsukishima takes the chance to roll over and somewhat flop on the ground with all the grace of a beached whale. Gasping for much-needed air, he shuts his eyes until the moisture dries from his face and his breathing evens.

Although he's flushed and tired, there's this buzzing feeling in his head. He's washed in a glow that spreads from his heart to the rest of his body. A small smile graces his features.

It's softer than normal. Different from the smirk he wears during volleyball matches or the bored one that stays on his face during classes.

"So…" Kuroo starts, breaking the silence, "Since I've gotten a chance to touch that ass, can I have a chance to have all of you?"

A snort bubbles out of Tsukishima's nose, which turns into another laughing fit. 

Kuroo wives his left hand in front of Tsukishima's face. "Still feeling ticklish there, giggly?"

"That was awful. If the rest of your pickup lines are that terrible, I can't imagine the rest of you." Kuroo’s smile wobbles a bit. "But luckily for me, my brother's advice to loosen up and make more bad decisions has grown on me, so I think I'll take you up on that offer."

Tsukishima chuckles once more when Kuroo feigns to punch him in the chest. "Y-you aren't allowed to scare me like that," Kuroo replies, helping Tsukishima sit up.  

A soft smile works its way onto Tsukishima’s face as he says, "Well, I guess you're just going to have to get used to me getting you back for teasing me all the time."

Kuroo only smirks at him, and Tsukishima has to resist the urge to kiss Kuroo silly.

Wait what?

"Oh Kenma," Tsukishima sings, snickering when Kuroo’s face morphs into a mortified expression. 

He starts full-on laughing when Kuroo bolts out the gym door with a see you later that ends in a note that rises at the end in a pleasant high-pitched tone. Tsukishima wants to hear the sound again once he gets his revenge. 

[giggly-squiggily]

Hi Squiggly! I saw your requests were open and was wondering if you would be willing to write for Haikyuu? Totally understand if you’re not feeling up to it though! If you are willing though, could I request platonic lee Suga and ler Tsukishima? I think they’d be such an interesting pair with how mischievous they both can be. I don’t know if you want a prompt or not, but if so, maybe Suga was trying to get a rise out of Tsukki and get him to be a little more joyful/playful, but that backfires and when that playful side comes out, there do be tickles. Thanks Squiggly and I hope you have a fantastic day/week and have fun with your writing adventures!

Ooo, the rare playful Tsukishima! We love to see it! :D I've gotcha covered, anon! :3 And thank you so much! I wish the same to you- may your week/weekend be a great one and your day be lovely!

Cloud 9 (Taglist Peeps):

@thatbigbisexual29, @duckymcdoorknob @rachi-roo

“Hey, Tsukishima! How’s the weather up there?” Suga slapped him on the back, the gesture far too light to send the blonde off-balance. “I gotta ask- do you like being the team’s wall? You’re really good at it.”

“Uh, thanks I guess?” The middle blocker raised a brow, fingers twitching to pull on his headphones. It wasn’t that he disliked talking to Suga- it was more he just…didn’t like talking. Usually Yamaguchi carried conversations for both of them, but he had after school tutoring today- meaning the blonde was left on his own. “And I suppose. It’s a position.”

“Ah, you’re trying to act cool. A Lot of first years do, you know?” Suga gave his shoulder a squeeze before shaking it some. “I remember when us third years did. I like to think we’ve grown into our cool era.”

“You have? I couldn’t tell.” Oops- that slipped.

Suga’s jaw dropped, eyes lighting up at the comment. “Oh, so that’s how it is, huh? Very well then- take THIS!” He dropped the hand on Tsukishima’s shoulder, clamping it on his side for maximum effect. “Now you’re gonna learn to respect your seniors!”

“Er! Hmmph!” Immediately Tsukishima clamped his mouth shut, twisting away from the ticklish touch. He should have known where this was going. “D-Don’t! I’m n-not ticklish!”

“Sure you’re not.” Suga snickered, bringing both hands up to attack his ribs, increasing his efforts. “That’s why you’re smiling so much, yeah?”

This guy! Tsukishima willed himself not to laugh, bracing against the tickly fingers. Suga was good, but this was nothing compared to the torment Kuroo and Bokuto unleashed upon him during the training camp. He could deal with it until Suga gave up…

Or he could get him instead.

“Hm? Is that a laugh I hear- whoa!” Suga yelped when Tsukishima grabbed his wrist, twisting with all his might. The setter stumbled some as he was whipped forward, just barely saved from falling by the blocker’s hands. “C-careful no-OH!”

“I think being careful’s gonna prove difficult.” Tsukishima mused, his fingers itching along Suga’s waist as the setter squirmed and giggled, doubling over into himself. “What’s wrong? I thought you were teaching me a lesson?”

“Yoohohohohure a snehehahahahaky ohooohohohne! AHehahahahaha- Dihhihihihid thehehehy teach yohohoohou thahahhat?” Suga wheezed, cheeks pink and giggles increasing when his ribs were marched on next.

Yes. “Nope. I just picked it up somewhere.”

“Lihihiihihiiar! Aheahhhahahahhaha- wahahahahit wahahhahait I’m sohohohohorry, I tahahahke it bahahahhack!” Suga all but flailed when his middle ribs were prodded at, nearly headbutting Tsukishima in the process. “Yohohohohohu ohahahakay?”

“Yeah, fine. You’re so squirmy though- hang on.” With another move he ‘picked up somewhere’, he kicked Suga’s legs out from under him, sitting on his hips as he carried on drilling into his ribs from behind. “There- now I can tickle you better.”

“Gehehehahahahahhahhaha! Tsuhuuhuuhuhkki, plehahahahhahahhase!” Suga was a mess of mirth, feet kicking against the ground as he pressed his arms tightly into his torso. “Iihihihihihihihit tihihihihihihickles sohoohhoohhoo muhuhuhuhuhuhuch!”

“Huh, you don’t say?” Tsukishima let his fingers walk across his back, looking for newer spots to torment. “Are you ticklish here? How about here?” He prodded randomly, snickering when Suga jerked and squeaked with each jab. “I think I remember you having a spot along…here?” He wiggled a finger beneath Suga’s armpit experimentally.

“AHAHHHHAHA!” The shriek was so loud it echoed across the empty gym.

“Wow. What a spot.” Deciding he’d take the hearing damage, he dug both hands into Suga’s pits, grinning as the Setter thrashed beneath him in hysterics. “That’s right- laugh for me.”

“TSUUHUHHUHUUHUHKI PELHAHAHAHAHAHAHSE!” Suga begged, cheeks hot and eyes starting to mist over. “STHAHAHAHAHAHP!”

“Heh, given up already? Alright.” The tickles came to an end as the setter gasped for air, curling onto his side. “That’ll show you for trying to tickle me.”

“Ehehehehe…hehehehee…ohoohoho doohohon’t wohohorry…yohohour lesson is stihiihihll underway.” Suga pointed out, earning a raised brow.

“Really? And how is that?”

Just then- two hands from two different bodies touched his shoulders, making him stiffen up.

“Hi Tsukishima.” Daichi was all smiles.

“Ready for lesson two?” Asahi grinned.

Thanks for reading!

[intheticklecloset]

Hello! Could you do lee!Asahi with ler!diachi for the coffee shop requests.

Something like Asahi being stresses out before a game and Diachi absolutely wrecking him in front of the team. Thank you, have a spectacular day! 🖤

This is very late and I'm very sorry, but I hope you enjoy! ^^

~~~

After Asahi’s third failed spike in a row, Daichi turned to him with a frown. “What is up with you, Asahi?”

“Sorry, I’m sorry,” Asahi stammered, rubbing his face with his hands and pacing in circles. The others on the court exchanged glances. It was obvious he was freaking out, but why now? Why this game?

“Hey,” Daichi caught his friend by the shoulders and forced him to meet his eyes. “It’s going to be fine. You know that.”

Asahi groaned. “I don’t know that! I’m missing everything you send at me. I shouldn’t do this; I’m not ready. Put me on the sidelines; I’ll only slow you all down—eep!”

Daichi kept his finger in his side even after giving it a good poke to shut him up. “I’m not sidelining you.”

“But—hehehey!”

“What are you so afraid of?”

Asahi did his best to hold still and take it, but he couldn’t help the way he crumbled at the wiggling finger in his side. “Dahahaichi, stop it! Not in front of them!”

The team captain glanced over his shoulder at the rest of their teammates, who gave him various encouragements such as thumbs-up from Noya and Hinata and a more subtle nod from Kageyama and Tsukishima.

“Looks like they’re cool with the intervention. Clearly you need it.” Daichi turned back to his friend who was now trying to shuffle backward, a nervous smile on his lips. “Brace yourself. This is going to tickle. A lot.”

Asahi gasped and turned to run, but Daichi had him wrapped in a tickly bear hug from behind faster than he could take two whole steps, and soon the other boy’s giggles filled the air as he squirmed in their captain’s hold.

“Hehehehehehey! Nohohohoho! Daichi, I’m fihihihihine! I dohohohon’t need – stohohohohop it!”

Daichi smirked at the higher-pitched cackles he got when he dug his fingers into Asahi’s ribs. “Sorry, but I don’t believe you. I think another minute of this is necessary.”

[ticklishfanart]

This is one of three little sketchy drawings I’ve done of krtsk based on things said whenever me and my friend get into tickly situations :3 anyways my friend came up with this retort while I was Getting her and it made me laugh very hard

[smilingangel582]

Since I got this.... hehehe I'll be writing a sequel now.

The villain strikes again! With backup...

King of the court or any sort of nickname doesn't bother him like it used to. Tobio Kageyama finds it rather a nonchalant aspect in his daily volleyball routine.

His passion to make it arouse this sense of happiness brought him to a rather obnoxious orange little guy who would annoy him to dust.

Now he just needs to set to him to they both are satisfied.

"You better concentrate, Kageyama... or the captain has something planned for you," Hinata's words brought a chill down his spine, recollecting the dares they've been doing, but specifically the captain permitting for round two.

Wearily, he began to set as many as he could to all the spikers.

None of them had forgotten Tsukishima's attack on him. Many looked like they were anticipating him to make a mistake to get his punishment.

Oh, that won't happen, never... he can't relive that again... nuh uh

He shivered now, taking a break by drinking some water. Kageyama's vision was clouded from exhaustion, particularly because he overdid his training, unlike the others... part of that was to be blamed on Tsukishima for tickling him to death.

He leaned back, now feeling his sweat beginning to bead.

"Kageyama~, you shouldn't let your guard down!" It was a sneaky voice from Nishinoya who had snuck up behind him fingers itching to get him. He straightened up and glared at the upperclassmen "Oi, Noya-san you can't do anything to me yet... its still practice..."

"Someone's dying for a play fight." Tanaka and Noya duo laughed at that, and this earned a blush, to be completely honest... he didn't mind, but he also dreaded the fact that this was against all of them and himself.

He hopes Daichi has some sort of empathy towards him... to stop them.

How was he wrong? Because he ended up digging his grave.

Constant pressure in mind made him give Hinata a set too high. In the end, the ball plopped down on the court with a silent echoing tone in depth. Reminding something sinister.

He heard cracking of knuckles and it was to his pure horror, Daichi, then the other responsible senpai-tachi (plural of senpais). They all had the looks of 'we'll teach a slow and painful lesson' and that was something terrifying.

In the end, he was at the receiving end, where Tanaka and Noya each grabbed a knee, squeezing them with pure merciless desires. Then Hinata is impatient to get the sweet death spot on his ribs. Ennoshita and Sugawara had the audacity to tease his ears and neck.

They were all on him, except Tsukishima (thankfully for Kageyama), Yameguchi, the managers and Daichi.

"Man messing with you is so fun!" Tanaka laughed getting the sensitive part of his calf muscles. This was bad... really bad, thought Kageyama, not only were they destroying they were teasing him like crazy... he wanted to crawl into a rock right this instant!

His cheeks were blossoming a colour of pink, almost from embarrassment. His giggles reached several octaves now. "Gahahaha nohoho Ihihihihi hahaha hate thihihis!"

Tsukishkma clicked his tongue "Ah... I can't watch, your doing it wrong..."

"Huh -whoa!" Hinata yelped when he was pushed to the side, the tall guy was now giving directions... Kageyama gawked with horror "Thehehehe hehehell yohohohou agahahahain scrahahahahwny bahahastard?"

"I wouldn't use that tone king, I'm really motivated unlike last time"

Last time he wasn't? Kageyama wanted to argue but a new painfully ticklish sensation passed through his nerves, he just felt like a wave of electric current pass down his limbs now curling as he freed his arms.

"I recently discovered the ribs also have a new switch... the bottom ribs give him an extra sensitivity... try it Hinata"

He was gladly gone but only with passing down his knowledge to his successor in overthrowing the king.

"AHAHAHA NOHOHO! AHAHAHAHAHA MEHEHEHERCY PLEHEHEHEASE! IHIHIHI GIVE! BOHOHOKE!

"Wow, you weren't lying... he got way louder than before..." it seems Daichi sees the limit in Kageyama and grabs the orange haired kid away from him."He pouted. "Aw I wasn't finished"

"Well... I suppose he needed a laugh or two... but i think it's a bit unfair to let him take the torment" Daichi said as he turned to Sugawara who was uneasy "W-why are you looking at me?"

Another tickle war broke and Kageyama could just stay away with his breath easing up to a normal pace. Tanaka was attacking Noya, Hinata enjoyed tormenting Yameguchi along with Tsukishima giving advice. Sugawara's childlike laughter was the spotlight while Ennoshita helped...

This was something no one could stop. Kageyama smiled...

A goodbye without tears

You can find the plot here

A/N: Hi!! I'm still alive... after more than a month of inactivity... 😓 Sorry for not posting my content for a while, after I was done with my entry test and tasted a bit of freedom, I realized how burnt-out I truly was. I took a break from literally everything and hung out with my friends and family since I spent the whole summer studying for a thing or another 😅 Anyway, back to the important stuff, this fic was a request... that I took way too long to write... again... (PLEASE FORGIVE MEEE) but I found it really interesting and I related a lot to the scenario, which is why it came out a bit more personal than I wanted. But at the same time I liked it the way it was so I decided to post it like this. Spero vi piaccia 💚🤍❤️ (I hope you enjoy it) Suggestions and support are always appreciated ^_^

DISCLAIMER: This is a tickle fic, if it's not to your taste I don't suggest you read it

"That's it for today, guys" Ukai's loud voice echoed throughout the gym "Make sure to stretch properly, clean up, and then go home and get some rest!" He said before leaving, knowing he had to prepare some meat buns. Everything went as usual, but a little detail made that day different. It was the third-years' last training.

Daichi almost couldn't believe it was really happening. Three years had already passed and he was about to leave his volleyball team. And as chaotic as said team was, he didn't like the idea at all. He just felt like it wasn't the right time.

Sure, Ennoshita was more than ready to become captain, but were Tanaka and Noya ready to become less... hurricane-like? Was Yamaguchi going to find his self-confidence? What about Tsukki? Would he find it in himself to open up to the others? To not talk about Hinata and Kageyama's constant bickering...

There was still so much he could help everyone with, even if he was just supporting them or giving a fatherly advice. But he had to admit to himself that they were going to manage without him, his team was full of capable and motivated guys, they were more than capable of overcoming any kind of hardship. He also had to admit to himself that the one who wasn't ready to that kind of change was him.

"...so I was thinking I could go to university and work somewhere to help my family par fo- hello? Earth to Daichi? Are you even listening?" Suga's scoff brought the (soon-to-be ex) Karasuno captain back to Earth. "Sorry Suga, I spaced out for a second..." He let out an embarrassed chuckle.

The grey-haired guy looked at his teammate with genuine concern in his eyes. "Are you okay? Is there something wrong?" He asked worried.

Daichi glanced for a second at the others, who had started cleaning already, and then told his friend about his worries about that being his last training, having to leave the team, missing the team, missing volleyball in general...

"DAICHIIIII!!!" His train of thoughts got abruptly interrupted by Suga's bonk, which was objectively kind of deserved. It was Mr. Refreshing's duty to help anyone who was feeling down, one way or another, and the whole team knew that.

However, there was still a nostalgic glint in the captain's gaze, and that couldn't be allowed. Sad goodbyes were not accepted at Karasuno Volleyball Team. The gray-haired guy looked around himself for a second. Narita and Kinoshita had already left with Ennoshita because they still had some exams to study for. Noya and Tanaka had to study as well... but they insisted on helping with the cleanup before going. Yachi and Kyoko were gone as well; they wanted to spend some time together since they were going to say goodbye, too.

"Ahem! Guys, gather here for a second." The vice-captain said, waiting for everyone to come. "As you know, this is our last day here." His first sentence was enough to make everyone groan and whine, but he was able to hush them all. "BUT! We don't want it to be a sad goodbye, we want to enjoy this journey until the last second... or at least that's what we agreed upon. However someone is feeling sulky right now. Does anyone have a suggestion to fix this little problem?"

Making sure Daichi wouldn't see him, he wiggled his finger to give his own suggestion to the team. Obviously, they all caught on quickly, especially Hinata and Nishinoya, who immediately pounced on the captain.

The dark-haired guy stumbled backwards, trying to keep the two short guys still, but when Suga and Asahi decided to join the fun, he had no choice but topple to the ground while trying to hold back his laughter. "Guys! What a-ahare you doing? This is- ack! This is nohot necessary!"

"On the contrary, captain, this is exactly what you need." The vice-captain smirked teasingly at him and started poking his stomach. Asahi was keeping his arms pinned above his head with one hand and softly fluttered the fingers of the other one all over his neck and ears, changing sides every time he scrunched his shoulder to protect those spots.

Yamaguchi had managed to drag Tsukki into this, claiming that it was a bonding moment and he would've enjoyed it. They were straddling the captain's calves and squeezed the kneecaps and right above them. It made him kick so much that he almost managed to buck the first-years off a couple of times.

Noya was sitting between Daichi's legs and was squeezing his hips and sides quickly and mercilessly, while Tanaka was helping the vice-captain with the stomach. "Guhuys Ihihi sweheahahar..!" The dark-haired guy quickly dissolved into hiccupy giggles and found it impossible to build a complete sentence. "Ah ah ah," Suga teasingly reprimanded him "no swearing at school." He said while dipping his index finger in the wing spiker's belly button and wiggling around, which elicited some snorts that made everyone laugh out loud.

Obviously Hinata had joined the fun as well; he was getting the right side of the ribcage, having fun with counting the bones and sliding his fingers into every groove. "Oi Kageyama, are you coming?" He yelled, only receiving an annoying scoff in response. But he knew better. "Are you afraid I'm better than you at this?"

The setter glared intensely at him and approached the group (with the faintest blush on his face, according to Hinata). He kneeled by the left side of Daichi's ribcage and attacked, going immediately all out, to which the redhead responded with upping his game as well. "Thihihihis ihihis *snort* Thihihis ihis nohohot ahah- ACK! ahaha cohohompehetihihitiohon..!" The third-year scolded them between his laughter.

However, the other teammates seemed to disagree. Seeing the little competition between the freak-duo made them want to join. Daichi arched his back and tried to squirm as much as he could, which wasn't much since he didn't want to take the risk of hurting anyone. "Yohohou're beheheihing meheahahan nohow!" Whoops... wrong thing to say. The teens smirked evilly and started tickling him harder while teasing him as well!

He couldn't figure out who was saying what, he was too lost in his own laughter to listen carefully. He just heard a mix of voices saying "Tickle tickle tickle..." "Aaaww come on, smile captain" "Hahaha did you just snort?" "Hehehe see? This day must be happy for all of us, now smile for us!" "Who's making you laugh more? Me or that boke?"

Okay, maybe he could figure out who asked that last question, but that wasn't the point. He felt his face become red, and he couldn't even hide behind his hands since Asahi was keeping them pinned. But it wasn't so bad after all... until someone, probably Suga, had the idea of going for his thighs. That made him go berserk.

"BAHAHAHAHAHAHA OHOHOKAHAHAHAY IHIHI GIHIHIVEHE!! IHIHIHIHI GIHIVEHEHEHE PLEHEHEAHASE STAHAHAHAHAHAP!!" He screm at the top of his lungs. His thighs were his absolute worst spot, and he'd been enduring that playful assault for God knows how long; it made him tap out almost immediately.

"Alright, let's let him up." The grey-haired guy told everyone to stop and helped the captain to sit up. He was still giggling and a giddy smile was plastered all over his face. "That... that wahas... absoluhutely ruthless..." he panted "but maybehe I needed that... thahank you guys..." he finished with a chuckle.

"Thank you, Daichi, for being the greatest captain ever and even guiding us all the way to nationals." Suga said with teary eyes. What could he say... even Mr. Refreshing himself wasn't immune to the strange feeling of saying goodbye. He was already feeling nostalgic as well!

"Sugaaa!! We said no tears!" Hinata yelled while tackling him down and going straight for his sides and tummy. "Hihinahataaa! WhaHAHAhat aharehehe yoHOHouhu dohohoIHIhihiHIng?!" The vice-captain broke down into his high-pitched and squeaky laughter. "Hahaha I think I'll join as well... it's true that we said no tears after all." Asahi said approaching to the grey-haired guy, only to lift up Hinata and blow a raspberry on his tummy.

"NAHAHAHA AHAHASAHAHAIHIHI GEHET HIHIHIM NAHAHAT MEHEHEHEHEEE" The tangerine howled, but he was quickly rescued by Noya, who took advantage of Asahi's distraction while he was putting down Hinata to jump on his back and tickle his neck and torso.

Right after he recovered, the redhead pounced on Kageyama, bringing him down. "Bohohokehehe yohou're gohonnahaha gehehet ihihihit!!" He yelled, trying to sound angry and intimidating, before fighting back and darting his hands up into the middle blocker's underarms. "Ihihi'll beheahahat yohohouhu thihis tihihimehehehe Bahahakahageheyahahama!"

In the meanwhile, Suga thought that a certain couple of first-years was missing too much on the fun, so he wrapped an arm around Yamaguchi's shoulders to keep him in place while he scribbled on his tummy with his other hand. "Nononoohohohoho pleheheahaseee" The pinch server's legs gave out and he went to the floor, but he never did anything to actually stop the older guy.

Tanaka decided to help the vice-captain with his mission and went straight after Tsukishima, who desperately tried to not laugh... in vain of course.

Before they knew it, a tickle fight on full scale had blown out in the gym and everyone was laughing their head off.

Daichi glanced at the mess right in front of him before joining. The thought of graduating didn't sound so scary or sad after all, because now he knew he was never truly going to leave his team, or better, his family.

Something Is Off

AAAH, ok so i had this anon request for lee!kuroo in my inbox but it somehow got deleted - it’s here now but it’s been a while and idk if the anon who sent the request is actually seeing this, but whatever, here it is

an: tickle fic, kurodai

¸¸♬·¯·♩¸¸♪·¯·♫¸¸¸¸♫·¯·♪¸¸♩·¯·♬¸¸

Something was off. Akaashi couldn't quite name it, but the usual cheery and relaxed atmosphere of their extra practice in the third gym had been replaced by something a lot more tensed and weird. He didn't like it. Being used to Bokuto's and Kuroo's bullshit, the newly established silence was uncomfortable and, on top of that, awfully suspicious.

Akaashi looked at his captain intensely, who was practicing his serves. That idiot was probably planning some shenanigans with his non-better, maybe even worse Nekoma pal and they were just bad at hiding their intentions. The Setter wasn't sure what to make of the tension in the gym though – were they scared that their prank could go wrong? A cold shiver ran down his spine as he imagined the horrible stuff they could've gotten themselves into.

But alright, no need to panic, there was no evidence of a crime about to happen – yet. Akaashi put his water bottle down and walked over to Tsukishima who was taking a break as well. “Hey, you don't happen to know what's up with them, do you?”

The Karasuno Blocker just shrugged. “I'm not an expert like you in that matter, but I actually don't think there's something up with Bokuto, he's just focused.” A nod in the other direction, away from said Bokuto. “Kuroo, however, is behaving a little strange.”

Akaashi followed the gesture and furrowed his brows. Tsukishima was right and now that he had said it out loud, the second year saw it too; Bokuto was just focused on his serves, a rare but possible and very much appreciated state. Meanwhile, Kuroo hadn't made a snarky comment in over twenty minutes and was just spiking a ball against the wall again and again and again, not even really looking at what he was doing. Good to know that it wasn't something going on with the two of them, but the empty expression on Kuroo's face made Akaashi worry nevertheless. Very unusual.

“Kuroo-san?” The ball fell to the ground with a loud THUD and the Middleblocker turned around. His eyes took a second to focus on Akaashi who came closer carefully. “Are you alright?”

“Aw, Akaashi, are you worried for me?” In the blink of an eye, the usual lazy smirk returned to Kuroo's face and he leaned backwards against the wall. “Didn't know I was so important to you.”

“I'm serious, Kuroo-san. You're behaving weird.”

Akaashi noticed how the others were slowly gathering around him; let it be curiosity, like it was probably in Bokuto's case, or actual concern, like in Hinata's and Lev's. Akaashi didn't know why Tsukishima was there. Maybe he just liked having Kuroo on edge, because that was certainly what this whole movement seemed to do to Nekoma's captain. On the one hand, Akaashi felt a little guilty at the nervous flicker in Kuroo's eyes, but on the other hand, the chance that he would just shrug his concerns off was immensely limited by the sheer number of people surrounding him.

Still, he tried his best. “Tsk, wha- I'm not being weird, what are you talking about? Hey, Lev, shouldn't you be practicing receives?” Seemed like his best in a situation like this wasn't good enough though. Akaashi smirked to himself. So much for smug and manipulative.

“Yo, Kuroo, you good?” Perfect, Bokuto had caught on! Despite being a little dense from time to time, his emotional intelligence was impressive. “'Kaashi's right, you look like you saw a ghost. Hey hey hey, did ya? Did ya see a ghost?” Noticing that his friend didn't go along with the wide grin, Bokuto's face switched back to slightly concerned and he tilted his head curiously. “Bro?”

“What?!”, Kuroo snapped and if that wasn't evidence, Akaashi didn't know what would be. “It's nothing, okay? Can you all just stop bothering me and go back to practice?”

Hinata and Lev exchanged a glance, clearly intimidated and were just about to turn away and do as Kuroo said, when suddenly- “You know what I think?” The softness of Tsukishima's voice even sent a chill down Akaashi's spine. “I think you're lying.” The next sound echoing through the gym was a surprised shriek and Kuroo tumbled to the ground, his expression a mixture of withheld laughter and pure horror.

“Hgnnh- w-what are yohou doing?! Stahap! Gehet off of me!”

“No, I don't think I will.” Tsukishima leaned forward a little and now Akaashi could see that he was softly scribbling his fingers over Kuroo's sides, forcing giggles out of the Scheming Captain. “If you don't want to talk about what's concerning you, we'll make you.” Even though it seemed a lot more likely that Tsukishima just didn't want to leave out an opportunity to mess with Kuroo, but Akaashi decided to go with it anyways.

“NAha, Ahakaashi, nohoho!” The fabric of Kuroo's shirt was soft under his fingers as he experimentally dragged them over the captain's ribs. Oh, that got him cackling. Akaashi normally wasn't the type for things like this, but something told him that he wouldn't get Kuroo to talk any other way and in the end, he only wanted to help him! Kuroo might've been annoying most of the- sometimes, but they were still friends. Somehow. Actually maybe they weren't, but Akaashi couldn't stand people around him being sad. “Hohow do you knohow-”

“I saw Kenma nudge your side the other day.” Tsukishima smiled maliciously. “Hate to break it to you, but it was painfully obvious to anyone who was watching. Just as obvious that you're hiding something from us.”

Kuroo's reply was cut off by another shriek, way louder and high pitched, when Bokuto finally decided to join in on the fun, effortlessly grabbed Kuroo's wrists with one hand and stretched them out over his head, only to go directly for the armpits. That sent the Middleblocker straight to the ground and he all but howled with laughter.

Akaashi took off his hands for a second, astonished. He'd only ever seen two people being tickled (Konoha and Komi when Bokuto thought they wouldn't put enough effort into their practice) and he wasn't an expert, but judging by the amazed looks on Bokuto's and Hinata's faces, Kuroo seemed to be extraordinary ticklish under his arms. Hm. Interesting.

“NAHAHA STAHAHAP!” A glimpse over his shoulder showed Akaashi, that the two first years had joined in, curiously nudging Kuroo's hips, making him wheeze in between his fits of laughter. “PLEAHEHEASE! BOHO, DOHOHON'T!”

“So”, Tsukishima smoothly chipped in, gesturing to Bokuto so he would slow down a little, “coming back to the actual topic, what is bothering you?”

“Ihihihi... nahaha...”, Kuroo turned his head to the side as if to hide the blush spreading across his cheeks and Akaashi couldn't tell if it was from the tickling or the general embarrassment, “Ihihi cahan't, ihit's stupid...”

The others exchanged a glance and while Lev shrugged (“Well, at least it's something now.”), Bokuto leaned forwards, unusually serious. “If it makes you all sad and distracted, it's not stupid. We can't help you if you won't talk to us.”

“Mahaybe I don't wahant you toho help- AH! Nonononono, Shrimpfahahaha, stahahap!”

Hinata just smiled innocently while consistently prodding his thighs, right above his knees. “Everybody needs a little help sometimes, Kuroo-senpai. Trust me, it's for the better.”

“Yeah”, Lev agreed and Kuroo honest to God screamed when the first year wiggled his fingers right under his toes, even pulling them back a little to have better access. “And come on, I mean, whatever it is, it can't be as embarrassing as this, right?”

“He's got a point.” Tsukishima lightly shoved Bokuto's hands aside so he could tickle Kuroo's armpits instead and contrary to the Fukurodani Ace, he went soft, calculating and almost excrutiatingly slow on the elder's weakest spot and it didn't take long for Kuroo to absolutely lose it.

If he hadn't been a breathless mess before, he now definitely was and Akaashi was impressed with how long he took it, only giving in after roughly two minutes.

“AHAHAHALRIHIHIHIGHT, IHIHI GIHIHIHIVE, JUHUHUST STAHAHAHAHAP! PLEHEHEHEASE!”

They immediately let go off him, even Tsukishima, and gave Kuroo a little time to catch his breath and come to his senses again. Akaashi hastily got him a bottle of water – hydration was important and considering Kuroo's exhaustion, this must've been almost a workout – and watched as Bokuto helped his friend sitting up and soothingly rubbed all over his back. “Hey, you alright?”

“Yeah, I-I'm fine.” Kuroo leaned back against the wall and closed his eyes, peeking them open for a second after a while only to shut them again immediately when he saw all the others were focused on him. “Gosh, you people suck.”

“Sorry, Senpai.” Lev scooted a little closer. “Are you going to tell us about your concern now?”

Kuroo pulled his legs closer and buried his face in his arms, hugging his knees tightly. His ears took an even darker shade of red. “Fine, but... ugh, I don't know, it's really silly. It's probably nothing. It's just embarrassing.”

“Tell us now!” Bokuto gave Kuroo's side a little nudge, making his best friend flinch hardly.

“Ohohokay, okay! I... I might... Imighthavealittlecrush...”

“What?”, Tsukishima digged deeper and Akaashi couldn't tell if he was for real or just fucking with Kuroo again if his life depended on it.

“I have a crush!”, Kuroo cried out and finally looked up, his blush intensifying even more. “I'm in love, okay, are you happy now?”

“Very”, Bokuto chirped with a satisfied grin. “Who are you in love with?”

“I- I can't tell you.” Kuroo sighed shakily and glimpsed at Tsukishima and Hinata, muttered: “If you guess right, I'll tell you tho. From Karasuno.”

“Shimizu-san? Yacchan?” When both of these guesses were met with a quiet No, Akaashi and Bokuto exchanged another glance before the latter smiled widely. “Was this the reason you were scared to tell us?”

“What?! No! … Maybe.”

“Then you really didn't have to be!” Being the touchy guy he was, Bokuto pulled Kuroo in a tight hug and ruffled his hair. “It's fine, Tetsu, really! So, who is it? Is it Sawamura?”

Kuroo didn't even need to nod, his stunned silence and tight grasping onto his fellow captain's shirt were answer enough and Akaashi could feel Hinata's excited beam before he actually saw it.

“Oooh, that would be so cool if you and Captain were a couple! You have to ask him for a date! Youhavetoyouhavetoyouhaveto-”

“Are you crazy?! No!” Kuroo ripped himself from Bokuto's hug and pushed Hinata so that the first year rolled onto the floor. “I'm not going to ask him for a date!”

Tsukishima cleared his throat softly. “You should, tho. For real.” Before anyone could wonder about where this sudden compassion came from, a typical Tsukishima-scowl appeared on his face. “If you had each other, maybe it would make both of you less of the insufferable romantics that you are now.”

Akaashi couldn't help but smile at the shock on Kuroo's face, at the vehement No and at the following laughter when he fell victim to his friends' ticklish encouragement once again.

“I will kill you, I will actually kill all of you – HEY!” No matter how tall Kuroo was, he couldn't do anything against the united strength of Bokuto and Hinata pushing him into Sawamura's direction. Luckily, the other captain just happened to turn around at that very moment and he looked mildly surprised at most – no wonder, Kuroo approaching him was a daily thing to happen at this point.

“Hi, Kuroo. Can I help you?”

“Ah, no- I mean, yeah, I mean...”, Kuroo took a deep breath and when he threw them a short glance, Akaashi made an encouraging movement with his hand, “W-would you like to... go on a date? With me?” He barely gave Sawamura time to fully comprehend his request, immediately resolving into hectic stuttering; “You don't have to tho, I mean, it's not a big deal if you don't want to, i-it's, uh, what I'm saying is, I-I'd totally understand-”

“Kuroo?”, Sawamura interrupted him and Akaashi saw Hinata and Lev share a fist bump when the Karasuno captain smiled. “I'd love to.”
