Little girl teaching her cats how to draw a flower 

*baby voice* “… and if you have any questions, just ask me! And now… yeah. And now you draw the roots. You draw them all twisted up! Got it? A flower? Now draw it. Did you get it, Luis Roberto? Did you get it, Jurandir? Look. Did you get it? That’s how you draw a flower.”

Up first, my goat

Senku Ishigami!

Now I love senku, nerdy types have always been some of my favorites, so pardon the incoming yap fest.

Lee Senku

𓍊𓋼𓍊 Senku is very sensitive. For most people, this is not a problem.

For senku, most problems for normal people are not problems for him, as his nerdiness is usually more than enough to get him through most situations, if not by actual chemical science, then by talking. UNFORTUNATELY, you really can't talk your way out of tickles. Or at least senku can't.

"Do you know that humans reaction to tic- that, is actually an evolutionary response? Scientists thought it to be a way for children and their families to encourage defending yourself-"

"So defend yourself, dear senku. I can see that hint of a smile on your ace-fay."

"That's also an evolutionary response."

"To what?"

"Be-ING- GEHEHEHEHEHEN! GEHET OFFA ME"

𓍊𓋼𓍊 Senku does NOT say he isn't ticklish. He knows that's too unbelievable. He says he's "a little" ticklish. He gets tickled anyway.

𓍊𓋼𓍊 His worst spots are his neck, armpits, and knees. No one knows about his knees though, only Gen and Byakuya were the only ones to know about that.

𓍊𓋼𓍊 Sometimes needs to be tickled right away from his work. Senku gets very deeply invested in his science and Gen, Tsukasa, or Taiju have to drag him off.

𓍊𓋼𓍊 Senku will occasionally start a tickle fight he can't possible win

Tsukasa, Ryusui, or Kohaku are the most likely to wreck him COMPLETELY.

Gen, Taiju, Ukyo, are not exactly at a disadvantage, but Senku has a chance at least.

𓍊𓋼𓍊 Xeno sometimes tickles Senku. I dont make the rules. As Senku's biggest intellectual rival/mentor/enemy turned friend for now, he enjoys occasionally poking, tracing, swiping, squeezing or skittering his fingers along spots he presumes are sensitive, or that he knows about from collecting info from the others residents of the Kingdom of Science. Senku would not admit it out loud, but it always gives him a tiny hit of dopamine.

After gaining enough "intel" he finally strikes in earnest, waiting until Senku was alone, working on more world saving plans. He stands behind him, Senku notices, but doesn't say anything. He's immersed in blueprints. Xeno steps behind him, looking over Senku's shoulder at the blueprints on the desk.

"You got anything useful to add or you gonna stand there and gawk, Doctor X."

"I was merely contemplating your imminent demise, Dr. Senku."

Senku isn't worried, but he very quickly becomes worried when he feels Xeno's fingers ever so softly skittering at the extremely sensitive spot on the nape of his neck, causing him to lurch forward and honest to God snort. He scrunched his shoulders up, as Xeno expected—this was a simple reflexive reaction after all—and he let his other hand slip under Senku's right arm (slightly more sensitive, if Xeno understood correctly) and began to scribble there and just slightly down his ribs, focusing on the middle of the two spots.

Poor Senku didn't stand a chance, first pushing himself forward, leaning over the desk, before arching back, slamming into Xeno's chest. Xeno had expected this, bracing for the soft impact. Senku didn't have much leverage here, and it was taking all his strength not to crumble into boyish giggles. (He was unsuccessful.)

"I do love when a very elegant plan comes together."

"ahahshand- I HAHAHATE YOUANDYOURSHITTYPLANA- XEHENO-"

"Of course, and that's why you're still leaning against me."

"THEHEHERES NOHOHOT A MILLIMETER OF SPAHAHCE-"

"There are actually so many millimeters of space that even scientists of the old would had no hope of calculating its vastness."

Senku got gotten so bad that he switched to Japanese at some point, which Xeno found indescribably amusing.

𓍊𓋼𓍊 Kohaku, Tsukasa, and Hyoga occasionally get senku if hes been an asshole and say they're helping him get stronger (they're not)

𓍊𓋼𓍊 As a kid, Senku really liked being tickled, but he NEVER admitted it. He just sulked around until Byakuya decided to tickle him to cheer him up, which turned out to be a lot less expensive than buying him new science equipment. (He still had to do that too.)

𓍊𓋼𓍊 Overall senku is aroundddd 7.5/10 for how ticklish he is, with a few really really bad spots and not a lot of willpower to stand it

𓍊𓋼𓍊 Verbal teases get him real bad. Can NOT handle whispering in his ears. Gen knows.

Ler Senku

𓍊𓋼𓍊 Lazy Ler. Senku is weak, he isn't good at pinning anyone down except MAYBE Gen, so instead he relies on his knowledge of human anatomy + his friends' innate sensitivities + his rudimentary teasing and taunting paired with his over the top sciency explanations to wreck them.

"Hm? It tickles? Yeah. That's normal, I'm tickling you."

"SEHEHEHEHENKUHU!"

"That's my name, does saying it make it tickle less? It shouldn't." Cue Senku tickling even harder.

𓍊𓋼𓍊 Devious yet simple teaser

"You're having muscle spasms, flailing about, it must really tickle.."

"You're screaming because I'm essentially assaulting your nervous system. Your brain knows you're not being hurt but the sensation is so pervasive and uncontrollably real that your brain thinks laughing is the way to respond. Except humans are hardwired to enjoy the sound of laughter, so it makes us continue to tickle. In other words, you're laughing, so i have to keep going. I can stop when you stop laughing."

"Yknow, for someone so strong, you sure are sensitive."

"You're ten billion percent ticklish."

"The reason you can feel it vibrating all over your chest when I do this-" he presses his fingers between Taiju's upper ribs and starts to vibrate and shake his hands up and down quickly

*screaming cackles from taiju*

"Is because the intercoastal nerves run under and along your ribs, and are extra sensitive to pressure and vibration, which also makes the feeling wrap around the chest and even move downwards."

𓍊𓋼𓍊 Senku occasionally gets into ruthless ler moods, in which he aims to produce as much manic laughter as he possibly can. The most likely victims of these moods are Gen, Taiju, Yuzuriha, Ukyo, and Chrome.

𓍊𓋼𓍊 Once concocted a "compound" that makes you more ticklish, and then gave it to Chrome, before wrecking him silly. He never explained that it was just water with some sugar and berry juice.

𓍊𓋼𓍊 Senku will very gently tickle Suika when she's sad and beyond comforting words, craves proximity. Especially after being alone for so long.

𓍊𓋼𓍊 when you're as weak as Senku is, it takes some creativity to get what you want from a bunch of overly strong weirdos. So Senku can be seen tickling his way through people. Side pokes to get them to move out of his way, wake up tickles to get Gen off of him, sudden bursts of squeez-y tickles to get Taiju to stop hugging him, soft tracing along Kohaku's back to get her to stop being such a worrywart over Senku, etc.

𓍊𓋼𓍊 VERY big on revenge tickles. Just look at him, he has to put that evil genius to work somehow. His revenge on Xeno was legendary. He got him so bad that Xeno actually called Stanley for help because senku decided to get him while he was in the lab, handling incredibly dangerous things.

𓍊𓋼𓍊 His favorite lees are Gen, Taiju, and Chrome.

𓍊𓋼𓍊 Finds it exhilarating to wreck his friends, and thinks it keeps morale high too.

you're going to do incredible things

New Release: Tale-Bringer [-The Silent Battle-] Military Lolita Ouji Double-Breasted Jacket

A duo i made up

Damian: was he not- i mean i know he wasn't fatherly, but was he not strict when you two were younger?

Dick: *loud laughing* oh, man, not even close-!

Jason: yeah, he really wasn't- i mean, he tried to be on occasion i guess; but it wasn't really parental strictness more than it was just being harsh and bitter.

Tim: so B really didn't try at all at first, huh?

Jason: he didn't- ok, honestly? my personal theory is that he didn't know he had kids until after i died.

Dick: *laughter turns to wheezes* wHAT?

Jason: no- *wheeze* shut up, hear me out, *cackles*

Tim, audibly amused: what the fuck does that even mean--like you think he forgot he adopted you both?

Jason: no, no- i just think he didn't understand the correlation between adoption and actually being in charge.

Damian: you think that in his mind it was a one time thing? like 'oh, adopting kids? yeah i did that in the past, fun night'.

Tim: *wheeze*

Jason: y-*snort*-yeah, you get it.

Dick: SO WAIT- *deep breath* so you- so you think that for Bruce it was like he had no idea until after you died, at which point he was panicking looking around like 'FUCK A CHILD IS DEAD, SOMEBODY CALL HIS PARENT- ooooh, i get it now,'

Tim: *loud uncontrollable cackling*

Jason, also fighting through wheezes: no i- *choke* no, i mean like- i think he didn't really understand that he was supposed to be a parent in all the senses rather than just the legal. i think you were too happy with every non-parent-like decision he made, and i was too independent, so he thought we were all just chill living in each other's spaces.

Dick: *wheeze* he thought- he thought that Dad was just a title, like Mr or Mrs,

Damian: -like when you buy a two foot square of land online so you can legally be called a lord.

Dick: *cackling* tHAT'S EXACTLY WHAT IT WAS-

Jason: yeah, yeah- and then i died and Tim fuckin' showed up, and i have to imagine he was just white-knuckling it in the Batcave looking at him like 'god, i really need to lock the fuck in with this guy',

Tim and Dick: *start crying*

Damian: you think- *snort* so finding Drake was Father internally sighing and going 'ok, time to grind i guess'?

Jason: exac- *wheeze*

*connecting ping*

Bruce: boys, it's-

*a pause* *breathless laughter*

Bruce: i don't even want to know what's so funny this time. i'm just here to call Robin home; it's almost three, i want you to come back to the cave with me so you can get some sleep before your exam at school tomorrow.

Damian, disgruntled: *sigh* yeah yeah, on my way.

Dick, weeping, tone high-pitched: he's locking in-
