₍ᐢ•ﻌ•ᐢ₎

it was a nice day outside. the sun was shining but there was enough of a breeze in the air to keep the heat from being unbearable as the clouds drifted gently across the sky. diluc sighed as he leaned back on his arms, staring up at the clouds. his coat had been shed and draped across razor’s legs who had been snoozing with his head in diluc’s lap. the tavern owner chuckled at the sleeping figure, enjoying how peaceful he looked when he was asleep.

he had taken razor out for an afternoon picnic, temporarily closing the tavern to do so, in order to celebrate the boy’s birthday. he wasn’t sure how it happened, but razor had somehow become attached to him and as a result, diluc started viewing him as a younger brother. he recalled razor’s happy face when he showed him the foods and juice he packed for them and smiled at the memory, gently running his finger down the length of razor’s nose and watching it twitch.

still scrunching his nose, razor fluttered his eyes open and looked around him before making eye contact with diluc. as he did so, he raised his arms up and let out a noise as he stretched out his body before relaxing back into diluc’s lap.

“warm…” he said simply and diluc hummed.

“yeah,” diluc agreed. “it’s a nice day out today. i think the archons blessed you on your birthday; it was raining all last week.”

“thank you, archons…” razor hummed, letting his eyes flutter close again.

diluc felt his heart swell at how adorable the younger boy was acting and reached over to gently flutter his fingers against razor’s tummy, something he usually did with the little ones. he was a little shocked when razor jumped and let out a surprised giggle. it was definitely an expected reaction, nearly everyone he did it to giggled in some way or another. but he’s seen razor getting into tickle fights before and it didn’t seem that he was all that sensitive.

yet here he was, reaching out to diluc’s hand and giggling at the contact.

“weheird…” razor giggled out.

“weird?” diluc asked, chuckling at razor’s innocent reaction when he nodded. “that’s because you’re ticklish.”

he brought his hand down to start fluttering against razor’s tummy again, relishing in the little giggles that poured out of the birthday boy’s mouth as he did so. razor actually didn’t squirm around too much, only turning halfway towards his side and softly pawing at diluc’s wrists as he laughed and squealed. diluc took this chance to explore how sensitive razor’s sides and hips were, chuckling at how razor laughed harder from the ticklish touches.

“f-feheheels weheird! ahaha- tihihickles!”

“yes, it does, doesn’t it?” diluc teased lightly, now fluttering his fingers softly against razor’s collarbones and neck.

“are you bullying the kid on his birthday?”

diluc looked around when he heard kaeya’s voice and saw the cavalry captain walking over to them, holding two small boxes. diluc sent a half glare to his brother before retracting his hands from razor’s neck and patting at his tummy, drawing out one final giggle from the boy.

“like you wouldn’t do the same,” diluc commented, though there wasn’t that much malice in his voice.

“i would never,” kaeya gasped, placing a hand over his chest. but diluc watched kaeya’s eyes flitter towards razor as he set down the boxes. “okay, maybe i would. but only because you weren’t getting the good spots, brother.”

and kaeya quickly skittered his fingers against razor’s knees, causing the younger to let out frantic laughter and draw his legs in, proving that his lower body was much more sensitive than his upper body. diluc leaned back onto his hands again, watching as kaeya spent a few more moments clawing at razor’s knees and thighs before stopping his attack.

“okay, okay,” kaeya said, rubbing at razor’s knees. “i’m sorry, i was being mean. here, let me make up for it.”

kaeya reached over to open one of the small boxes and diluc smiled when razor sat up to look at the small cake with awe.

“i also have a gift from me and diluc here,” kaeya added, opening the second box and revealing a small crystal.

diluc nearly chuckled, amused at how kaeya included him as part of the gift bearer when he honestly had no idea this was happening, but didn’t comment on it. instead he watched as razor gasped and carefully picked the crystal up from the box and stare at the rainbow of colors within the stone.

“happy birthday, kiddo.”

- kio (kiochario) ><

hi bby !! @kazuimoto i hope you enjoy <3 i love you and i'm so proud of you

friendly competition

a/n: UH- SO I BASICALLY MADE THIS INTO A FIC ALSDJF i just got... way too into it a;sdkjl;kfdj no bc this hc was so fricking cute and i am here 100% for these worst spots ;alsdkfj i hope you enjoyed this one thank you for sending it in @veryblushyswitch hehe

“all i’m saying is that you’re way more ticklish than i am so, by default, that means your worst spot is more ticklish than mine.”

“what kind of logic is that?! coming from someone who squeals like a baby whenever their armpits are tickled!”

“says the one who folds in half whenever their tummy is poked!”

as if to prove his point, langa reached over to poke at reki’s tummy but immediately brought his arm back in when reki reached for his armpit. they did this often. these two were always tickling each other and with their competitive nature, they would argue over who was more ticklish than the other. reki was definitely more ticklish than langa by a long shot, the group knew this. but langa’s armpits were so sensitive he would be wheezing in seconds.

“how about we settle the score right now?” joe asked, while cherry chuckled in amusement.

“huh?” reki asked, looking over at their older friends.

“a friendly competition should do the trick,” cherry agreed with joe. “joe and i could tickle you both in your worst spots and whoever gives up first loses and proves that they’re more ticklish.”

“well-”

“you’re on!” reki yelled, pointing at langa. “i’m so going to outlast you.”

langa looked at reki then at joe and cherry with slight worry; if it was joe or cherry tickling him then he wasn’t sure how long he would last. but seeing reki fired up and feeling his own competitiveness resurfacing he quickly accepted reki’s challenge.

“alright,” joe said, after instructing the two to lay in front of him and cherry. “now, bring your arms up, langa. and-”

“wait, hold on!” langa exclaimed, pulling his arms back down. “this isn’t fair- people pull their arms down whenever they’re tickled and i have to keep them up while reki doesn’t have to?”

“aw, are you too ticklish to keep your arms up, langa?” reki teased and langa glared him.

“i didn’t say whoever pulled their arms down first would win,” joe reminded them. “and besides- you’re not going to hold them up yourself.”

langa’s eyes widened when joe easily grabbed his wrists, pulling them up above his head and using his knees to pin langa’s elbows in place. his armpits were totally exposed and he felt it, and the fact that he couldn’t even struggle against joe’s heavier body didn’t make it any better.

“good luck, langa!” reki started laughing at him but gasped when he felt cherry settle himself on his thighs.

“what?” cherry smirked. “you didn’t think you’d have it easier, did you? if langa’s squirming is limited then yours should be too.”

“ready?”

“you’re going down, langa!” reki exclaimed, his initial fear clearly gone again when the competition was mentioned. langa definitely wasn’t ready but he was determined to prove reki wrong and gave a brief nod to signal that he was.

langa shrieked before bursting out into uncontrollable laughter once joe’s fingers descended down to his armpits. he desperately tried pulling his arms down and when that didn’t work he bucked and twisted his hips but with the way he was pinned joe was able to wiggle his fingers into his sensitive hollows with no issues. from above his own laughter and joe’s teases, he could hear reki screeching and cherry’s taunting beside him.

langa started hiccuping when he felt joe slip his fingers into his short sleeves, teasing at his biceps before making contact with the bare sensitive skin. he desperately wanted to give up but he didn’t hear reki’s call yet and there was no way he was going to lose to him. he shook his head as tears started threatening from his eyes when joe clawed at one armpit while digging his fingers into the hollow of his other. he could do it.

but a few minutes later, he couldn’t.

“i- i gihihive up!”

langa coughed and breathed in as much air as he could when joe stopped his tickling. he felt the older skater climb off his arms and he pulled them down to roll over and see reki folded over his tummy and not doing any better than langa was. he groaned, mentally preparing himself for the teases that would follow but joe’s words shocked him.

“you two are ridiculous.”

“what?”

“you both gave up at the same time,” cherry chuckled as he shook his head. “there was no winner.”

“eh, well that means there was no loser either,” joe laughed, patting langa on the back.

“that’s fine,” reki panted, looking at langa. “but next time i’ll win for sure.”

“next time?” cherry asked and his teasy tone made langa eye him suspiciously. “you’re already up for a round two?”

“hm, it seems like they are,” joe grinned. “which is perfect because i was supposed to prove to cherry that i was better at tickling than he was.”

“oh, shove off! give me langa- i’ll show you who’s boss.”

and soon enough the two boys found themselves back in a tickly competition- except this time it wasn’t their own.

I RESISTED

I REALLY TRIED YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE ME

but I couldn’t …

the urge was too strong…

so….

drabble event:

genshin impact

Kaeya and lumine are sparring . Kaeya keeps using dirty tricks before getting away with a « no one said it wasn’t authorised now, am I wrong ~? » luckily lumine is stronk and she doesn’t fall for them , or she does but she’s able to get back up quickly . Finally she had had enough and she decides to attack him ! attack him with tickles ;)

kaeya that day discovered why lumine was called the resident Tickle monster

Rip kaeya loved by all (yes diluc you too )

worth it

a/n: ahhhh hi riv @satans-beloved-riv ! it's okay you don't have to resist the urge lmaoooooo this was so fun tho i live for kaeya getting destroyed and ler lumine ??? absolutely top tier 10/10 hc please enjoy omg

he knew he shouldn’t have done it. he really did. but he couldn’t resist and honestly her reaction was so worth it. kaeya and lumine had been sparring this afternoon and kaeya, being in a playful mood, had been playing dirty pranks on her the whole time. he could tell she was getting fed up but he loved that she was still witty with him as they continued. this last one he wanted to pull- setting a patch of ice laying right where lumine was going to charge- and lumine totally ate it.

he walked over to her, holding his stomach as he chortled. the shriek that came out of her mouth was just too funny and seeing her laying on her back, hair a mess, and staring up at kaeya with an unamused look in her eye- kaeya just couldn’t hold it together.

“oh, you think that’s funny, huh?” lumine asked with a playful glare and kaeya wheezed.

“y-yehes!” he laughed out. “y-you should have seen your face!”

“yeah? well, let me give you something else to laugh about-”

lumine quickly hooked her legs around kaeya’s knees to knock him off his feet and wasted no time in climbing onto the back of his thighs, digging into his sides.

“ah! nohoho, lu-luhuhumihine!”

“yes, kaeya?” she asked sweetly, dancing her long nails against the back of his ribs when he tried to reach around and grab her wrists.

“nohoho! thihis is cheheheating!”

“cheating? and everything you did? that wasn’t cheating?”

“i dihihidn’t tihihickle you!”

“silly, you wouldn’t have been able to tickle me anyway.”

that part was true. kaeya had tried tickling her multiple times but lumine proved time and time again that she wasn’t as easy to tickle as her brother was. not only did she not laugh easily, she turns right around and reaches out to tickle back.

kaeya squealed when he felt her fingers begin pinching around his hip bones and clawed at them with her nails. he could barely protest against the attack through his loud open cackles and could feel his face beginning to turn red.

“l-luhuhumihine, i’m sohohorry! i’m s-sohorry, juhust nahahat there!”

“not here?” lumine asked. “well, i suppose it is a bad spot. okay, then how about here?”

“ack! nonono! nohoho, go- goho bahack to the hihihips- ahaha!”

lumine had brought her hands up to his back, scratching and scribbling away at all the sensitive points there, paying special attention to the small of his back and fanning out towards his sides. he was screeching so loud he was sure all of mondstadt could hear him but at the moment he didn’t care. all he could think about was how much it tickled and he kicked and begged lumine for mercy until she finally decided to give it to him.

“maybe next time you’ll play fair,” lumine said, getting up off of kaeya as he rolled over with leftover giggles.

“it was soho worth it though,” he pressed.

“watch it, kaeya,” lumine warned. “i could easily have you shrieking like a child again.”

and kaeya was left with a choice to decide whether or not it was still worth it to continue to push her buttons.

“you mean like how you shrieked when you fell-”

“that’s it.”

yeah, totally worth it.

genshin impact (non tickle)

pinning!Kaeya and pinning!lumine are used to doing commision together and having weekly sparring matches . It all started with Lumine asking kaeya to come with her (what better way to get closer to your crush than slicing hilichurls in half ?) one day , she asks him a question and he replies by :

He said i

joking tone , his eyes full of playfulness as he looks back at lumine , but she wasn’t looking at him and instead staring ahead at her , only having registered his words . Maybe if she’s looked at him , she would’ve understood it was a joke . But well , kaeya asks her if she’s allright and she laughs it off , and everything’s fine until lumine starts backing away , always having an excuse to not come at weekly sparring matches and commissions . There’s a cold in the relationship , and who better than kaeya to fix it ?

lonely

a/n: hi riv @satans-beloved-riv !!! i tried sooooo hard not to make this completely angst just for you lmaoooooooo i'm surprised i managed tbh but i loooooove the way it turned out hehe ugh we love a little hurt/comfort in this house i hope you enjoy !!

“i just- i don’t know what to do.”

kaeya leaned against the counter of angel’s share, head in his hands as he sighed in defeat. his mug of beer was left unattended and the foam nearly extinct, something that rarely happened unless he was truly in distress. he really messed up this time…

a couple weeks ago, lumine had asked him if he wanted to roam the cliffs together, taking him to look at the line where the sky meets the sea. something he was entirely too familiar with, yet somehow infinitely more breathtaking whenever she was in the picture.

kaeya didn’t mean for it to happen, but the more and more time he spent with her… the more and more he started falling. part of him felt that maybe she was falling too. but that would have been too good to be true and so he waited, until he knew for sure that the feelings were mutual.

but of course he messed it up. of course he couldn’t keep his mouth shut for just a moment. as they made it to the top of the cliff, peering down at the soft rippling waves of the ocean, the breeze gently ushering the grass to dance, and the birds calling to each other as they played in the sky, lumine sighed.

“do you ever get lonely, kaeya?” she had asked, her hands folded neatly in her lap and clutching delicate pendant in her hand; her brother’s.

“lonely? me?” he had asked, trying to ease the mood and make her laugh. “not with someone here nagging me all the time, that’s for sure.”

he didn’t know what his words had done until now, when it was too late. since that day, lumine had shown up to their meetings less and less… until one day she stopped completely. he did see her around town and when he called out to her in his usual teasy manner, she would barely glance in his direction before walking the other way, hardly giving him a chance to speak with her let alone stand by her. and he didn’t realize it was completely his fault until he confessed his troubles to his brother.

“talk to her,” diluc simply said and kaeya peered through fingers in disbelief.

“easier said than done,” he groaned, too immersed in his own problems to notice that the door to the tavern had opened despite it being after hours.

diluc hummed in amusement. “that’s what you think.”

“wha-”

“kaeya?”

kaeya gasped softly and spun around in his chair when he heard the familiar voice. lumine looked back at him, eyebrows turned upwards and her eyes red and glazed over- as if she had been crying. diluc silently excused himself as lumine gingerly made her way to the stool next to him.

“kaeya, i-i’m sorry,” lumine whispered. “i shouldn’t have ignore-”

“no, i’m sorry.”

lumine’s eyes widened when he reached out for her hands instinctively, squeezing them in desperation.

“i’m sorry,” he continued. “for hurting you. i took it too far and i didn’t realize that my words were insensitive.”

lumine hesitated before looking up at him and when she didn’t speak he continued.

“i don’t get lonely,” he finally answered her truthfully. “not anymore. not when you’re always there beside me. you… make me forget what it feels like to be lonely.”

lumine still didn’t speak and kaeya almost believed he truly lost. but then he felt her gentle squeeze and saw her gentle smile and his heart eased when she spoke her next words.

“i feel the same way.”

it’s not my original headcanon but i really like the idea of zhongli just be really caring and sweet to childe after his weekly beating spar with the traveler and zhongli helps patch him up and everything. feel free to make it tickle related or not!

always

a/n: aahhhhh hi kuya @ticklystuff !! thank you so much waaaah i love this one; soft, domestic-y chili is my whole life ugh also not sure if zhongli would grow old or not but shhhhh

“you know… you don’t have to spar with the traveler every week.”

zhongli spoke with the same amount of softness he was using to tend to childe’s wounds. the younger had come back from his weekly spar with the traveler and having still not recovered from the last night he overused foul legacy, he was not as quick as he would have wanted to be. zhongli bare contained the sigh that fell from his lips when he saw childe’s sheepish grin and quickly set up a station at the kitchen table so he could patch up his boyfriend.

“‘course i do,” childe said, smiling happily despite wincing with pain as zhongli wrapped bandages around his waist. “how else am i going to get stronger?”

“you’re wearing down.”

“i’m conditioning my body,” childe argued.

zhongli rolled his eyes at the stubbornness; they had this conversation every week but hardly any progress was made. childe continued to spar despite zhongli’s warnings, occasionally bring home flowers to ease the blow, and zhongli continued to patch up childe despite his threats that he would stop doing it if childe sparred.

of course, he wouldn’t let childe go unattended when he’s weak and battered and childe had no plans of slowing down and so began this weekly routine.

“besides,” childe continued. “how else am i supposed to show you up? i have to assert my dominance now before i can’t do it later when i’m all old and wrinkly and you’re still looking as handsome as ever- aha!”

childe yelped when zhongli ran his thumb across his side- a gentle warning. he stared up at childe with a look of annoyance and childe sent him a sheepish giggle. it wasn’t that zhongli was sensitive about the topic, he would just… rather not think about it. he didn’t bother arguing with the harbinger, choosing instead to finish patching up his wounds.

his annoyance was short lived, though. as he noticed childe wincing and quietly grunting, he felt his own features soften. there was no point. the only thing that mattered right now was fixing childe up because zhongli knew he could not keep childe away from his love for battle.

“thank you…”

zhongli looked down at childe, pausing his current task of dabbing at the cut on the younger’s cheek. childe had barely whispered the phrase, staring up at zhongli with a mixture of guilt and love glinting in his eyes. zhongli chuckled.

“for what?”

“for fixing me up anyway…”

zhongli sighed before a soft smile appeared on his face. leaning forward, he gently placed his forehead against childe’s own and ran his fingers through his hair. he heard childe breathe out in content and press against his in response.

“always.”
