"I'm doing pretty good, I've been catchin up with old friends, chatting with my dads. Dove has convinced me to go see Quackity soon if you wanna come with me, she said he's too busy to leave Las Nevadas but he'd like us to visit so I'm going tomorrow. How are you my love?"

“I‘ll definitely come with you, Pandas.” Karl moved to hold Sapnap’s hand, squeezing it gently. “Oh and I’m happy you are good!” The smaller boy looked up and shrugged, smiling brightly. “I’ve been relaxing today but then I got bored as honk. So now I’m here!”

He gently gave his lover's hand three squeezes before twirling him and picking him up with ease. "Well you definitely won't be bored for long"

Karl giggled and smiled excitedly at his fiancé, holding onto him. “Oh really? What are we going to do, Pandas?” He reached up and booped Sapnap’s nose.

"I'm shocked you don't know~ I think it's been far to long since you, my love, have gotten a visit from the tickle monster~!"

The smaller boy’s eyes widened instantly and he moved to hide his face in Sap’s chest. ”Dont say t-that word!”

"What word~? Monster~? Are you afraid of the monster~?" He slowly curled and uncurled the fingers on the hand resting on Karl’s ribs

“N-no the other word, dummy!“ The smaller boy squirmed in his fiancé‘s grasp, giggling nervously.

"Oh I'm a dummy am I~?" He instantly pulled his lover up and blew little raspberries along his neck

“The biggehehest duhUhummy!” Karl threw his head back and giggled loudly, pushing at Sapnap half-heartedly. ”EeK! SahahAhap!”

"Yeah~? What's up Giggles~?"

Karl huffed lightly and blushed at the nickname. “That t-tihihihickles ya big nimrohohod.” he mumbled, hiding in his hands.

"Its supposed to Bubba~" he lowers himself to the ground and sets Karl on his lap, lightly spidering his fingers along his belly

Karl looked up at Sapnap with a shy smile before bursting into squeaky giggles.

"I'm doing pretty good, I've been catchin up with old friends, chatting with my dads. Dove has convinced me to go see Quackity soon if you wanna come with me, she said he's too busy to leave Las Nevadas but he'd like us to visit so I'm going tomorrow. How are you my love?"

Karl giggled and smiled excitedly at his fiancé, holding onto him. “Oh really? What are we going to do, Pandas?” He reached up and booped Sapnap’s nose.

“Oopsie! Sorry drama queen!” Karl giggled mischievously, reaching over to ruffle Punz’s hair. “It’s just a simple question Punz! Would you say the question was...pushing your buttons?” he said with a few pokes to the blonde’s navel, giggling at his joke.

"Something tells me you're not that sorry, nimrod." Punz rolled his eyes but let him mess up his hair, reaching to return the action gently. "Pft Karl that's a dumb joke eHEHE- nono dohon't!" He took a step back and curled forward a bit at the same time while his hands moved to block the spot. "That's not fair!"

“I am very sorry, nimrod.” he giggled more as the other ruffled his hair, then gasped dramatically. “Ok first off, it was a great joke thank you very much! Second it definitely is fair!” he pouted, acting like a grumpy child. “Mmphh...you are no fun.” he mumbled, leaning against the other and twiddling with his hoodie strings.

Punz huffed softly and moved his hands to rest on Karl's sides, squeezing them gently in short bursts. "I can't believe you're pouting after you attacked me! I think that deserves some retaliation right? Or wait..." The blond grinned and pulled the other a bit closer as he leaned down to mumble right in his ear. "I bet you wanted me to tickle you, right~? Aw Karl you didn't have to provoke! I'm happy to give you all the tickle-tickle-tickles you want~"

Karl hid his face in Punz’s chest, letting out tiny squeaks every time his sides were squeezed. “I didn’t attack youhou. Plus you’re being mean to mehe right now.” he huffed light-heartedly, feeling butterflies in his stomach almost instantly as the other whispered teasingly in his ear. “Don’t say t-that word you nimrod!” the smaller boy whined, looking at the blonde with wide eyes and smiling nervously. He shuffled a bit, too flustered to say anything else.

"In my defense you literally started it, so I don't want to hear any whining~" He chuckled softly as he switched to rapid squeezes up and down his sides. "Where are those cute giggles hiding? I know they're in here somewhere~" Punz cooed and couldn't help but grin down at him fondly as he darted his hands to scribble his ribs gently. "And why can't I say the word? Tickle tickle tickle~ See! It's so much fun to say~" His expression softened as he moved to gently nudge their noses together, laughing lightly along with him. "You're so cute~"

“But... mmphh.. okay, nimrod.” he agreed, mumbling the last part quietly, hoping he didn’t hear. He cuddled into Punz, getting more butterflies in his stomach until he jumped and burst into squeals and giggles. “EeHe! Puhuhunz!” he squirmed around, blushing a soft shade of pink at the teasing. “T-there aren’t ahahany cute gigglehes anywhehere!” Karl’s giggles lessened at his ribs, squeaking softly. “Puuuunz! I don’t lihihike that word!” he softly replied, blushing more and mumbling. “And I’m not cute!” Karl poked the blonde’s side, “You are the cute one bucko! Not me!” he booped his nose.

"Really? I think I found where a few are hiding~ Do you wanna know where gigglebug~?" His arms wrapped around the other gently, tapping his fingertips at the sides of his tummy. He couldn't help but lean down and nuzzle right up against his ear as he cooed softly. "I think they're all stuck in this cute, little tummy~ But don't worry! I'm happy to help them get out~" With that he gently kneeded his thumbs in to the sides of his stomach as he also pressed a soft raspberry to his neck. Punz did jump a bit at the unexpected poke only to lean back and level Karl with a playful glare. "Ohhh, am I? Am I the cute one Karl~? I think a certain lee needs to learn how to not provoke~" He shifted to dart his hands under his shirt and scribbled all of the other's stomach.

“Where are they?” he softly asked, tilting his head. Karl then squeaked, smiling nervously as his stomach started to quiver. “Punz no! There is nothing in my t-tUhuhummy! EehEHe!” he squeaked loudly, batting at his hands gently. “Meheheanie!” he tried to pout but couldn’t fight the big, goofy smile on his face. The brunet then looked at him with wide eyes, getting butterflies in his stomach once again as the other glared. “Y-you are cute though...hey! I didn’t provoke I was just sayihihing! Puhuhunz!” he squirmed a lot as the other scribbled around.

Punz hummed softly in fake contemplation as he decided to scoop Karl up, grinning at him deviously as he brought him closer. "Hm, are you sure? I might need a closer look~ You don't mind right?" He stuck his tongue out playfully before pushing his hoodie up, leaning down to pepper a few little raspberries on his tummy. "I think you liiiied angel~ I can see all kinds of giggles and butterflies in this adorable tum just trying to get out~" The mercenary pressed one right on his bellybutton then trailed a few around the spot. "Tickle tickle tickle cutie~ Look at how excited you are! Your tummy's shaking~"

Karl squeaked when he was picked up, looking at Punz with wide eyes. “Hi Punzie!” he smiled shyly, booping his nose. He then started shaking his head, “N-no you don’t need to check! I promise there is nothing! AhaHa! Quihihit it, nihihimrod!” The smaller boy got flustered at what Punz said, kicking his legs a bit as his navel was raspberried. “You’re the ohohone who’s lying! GaHAhah! N-noHOhot therehe!” Karl whined softly, his face heating up quickly. “Nohohot true! L-liahAHar.” he squeaked out, looking at his tummy and noticing it quivering quite a bit from the raspberries but sticking to his word.

Punz's heart melted at the sound of his laughter, pressing another raspberry to his bellybutton and then nibbling lightly. "Angel, you really shouldn't lie so much~ Especially when you're so ticklish! I mean the tickle monster might just have to punish you~" He paused for a moment and slowly lowered them both to the ground, settling carefully on Karl's hips. The blond moved to gather both his wrists in his hands and placed them above his head. "Keep this right here, ok~? I know you can do it!" With that he released his hold and pushed up Karl's hoodie, skittering his nails around lightly. "Poor blushy baby~ is your tummy just too ticklish~?"

Karl let out a squeal, arching his back slightly at the ticklish sensations all over his tummy and navel. “I-ihihi didn’t lie!” He shook his head for a moment, eyes wide. “N-nohoho not hihihim!” he giggled, waving his hands around a bit. The smaller boy then went quiet, waiting to see what Punz was doing. He let out a tiny giggle as he nodded, feeling very vulnerable in this position. “A-ah! Hehehehehey don’t cahahall me that! And y-yehehes it is.” he giggled, bouncing his legs slightly at the soft tracing.

Punz smiled at him gently and and lightened his touch, gliding his nails in random shapes all over his stomach. His head leaned down again to pepper tiny kisses all around his navel at the same time. "You're so cute, absolutely adorable~ Keeping your arms up like a good lee and giggling like that! Are you having fun~? Is this your favorite spot?" He cooed playfully and decided to be a bit firmer, vibrating his fingertips in to the sides of his stomach gently. "Or is there a better spot~? Cmon Karl just tell me where you wanna be tickled and I'll be extra nice~"

Karl bounced his legs more, looking up and smiling happily at Punz. He giggled at what he said, hiding his face slightly and nodding. “Mmhm! I lihihihike it heHEhehere!” the smaller boy threw his head back slightly and laughed, scrunching up his nose. Karl’s eyes flashed with excitement for a moment, “Buhuhut I haHahave too mahahany spots Puhuhunzie!”

"Awwwww~ Don't worry Karl! We've got all day to find every little spot! But for now let's focus on this pretty tummy, ok~?" He hummed and started to gently wiggle two fingers on either side of his bellybutton, leaning down to press raspberries to it lightly. "I mean I did just find the cutest button~ I think I might even be a giggle button!" Punz sat up and dipped one finger in his navel anf swirled it around gently. "What do you think gigglebug~? Does this little spot just make you as wiggly and excited~?"

“Ohohokay! G-gAHahAhaha!” he squealed loudly, his arms going down. “P-puhuHunz! Please don’t call it tHAHaHat!” Karl held onto the blonde’s arm, not moving it away. He wiggled around wildly, babbling like a baby. “Y-yehEhes it dOhOes!” The brunet smiled happily, kicking his legs.

"Hey! Kaaaaarl~ You put down your arms wiggleworm~" Punz pretended to be disappointed as he moved both hands to form claws on his tummy, not moving them just yet. "And I was trying to be so nice, now I gotta be mean~" He hummed softly and without further warning vibrated both hands in to his stomach. "Tickletickletickletickle~"

Karl’s eyes went wide, still giggling. “N-no I dihihidn’t! Wait nohoho Punzie!” The nervous, giddy butterflies returned, making the smaller boy wiggle around more. “Wait no don’t be meHEHEhean!” He arched his back, bouncing his legs. “I’m s-sOHohorry!” he looked up at the other, trying to do his best puppy eyes.

Punz glanced at him as his expression softened and he just gently squished the bit of pudge on his tummy. "Now, that look isn't fair gigglebug~ how can I be mean when you look so cute? Especially with this pretty soft tummy~" He mumbled and leaned down to nuzzle against the soft part, peppering tiny raspberries at random.

Karl continued his puppy eyes until he let out a high-pitched squeak at the squish, blushing softly. “It’s t-totally fair....oh my honk shush!” he softly replied, getting flustered and laughing softly as he raspberried and nuzzled his tummy. “It’s n-not sohoft or preHehetty you nihihimrod!”

"Kaaaarl~ Sweetheart~ Angel~ Don't lie again! I want to be nice to this cute, soft tummy~" Punz hummed against him and drifted his hands up to gently squeeze the pudge of his tummy. His lips curled in to a grin as he glanced up at him, pausing the tickling for a moment. "Yknow cutie I'm kinda hungry so I hope you don't mind if I...." The blond started to lightly nibble all over his tummy, paying special attention to his pudge and near his bellybutton. "Omnomnom~"

The brunet became even more flustered and hid behind his hands. “I’m nohoHot lyihihing Puhunz!” Karl let out a couple of squeaks as the other squished his tummy. He could feel Punz staring at him and moved his hands away, his cheeks bright pink and a wobbly smile on his face. “Hmm? Mind if you whahahat- aHa Punz!” he squeaked, giggling loudly.

Punz couldn't help but chuckle softly, pressing a soft raspberry to the pudge of his tummy between nibbles. Slowly he danced his fingertips up Karl's sides to wiggle and trace along his lowest ribs. "That's my name gigglebug, did you need something~? What happened to that confidence earlier~? I though you were gonna get me Karl, is this a part of that plan to wreck me~?" He hummed and sat up after a moment, rubbing gentle circles on his stomach to try and help get rid of any phantom tickles. "You really got me good cutie~"

Karl’s giggles turned into soft, squeaky laughter at the raspberry. He then wiggled around, letting out small titters as the other went up his sides. “Yohohou are meahahan.” he let out a small whine, hiding his blushing face in his hands. Slowly his giggles lessened, hiding in his hands more. “I can still wreck you, dummy.” he softly huffed.

"How're you gonna wreck me when you can't even look at me? It's gonna be hard to do with your hands too busy hiding those rosy cheeks~" Punz cooed and gently reached up to pull his hands away, leaning down until their noses bumped lightly together. "Hi there, now I can see that pretty smile~ It's pretty rude to try and cover up that cute face!" The blond grinned playfully as he took in how precious Karl was at the moment. "I'm very scared jacobs, you look like an absolutely ruthless ler right now~"

The smaller boy blushed more (if possible) and melted at the cooing. “Mmpph...shush Punzie.” he softly hummed, holding Punz’s hand gently and tracing his knuckles. “Hi nimrod...shuuush don’t say stuff like that!” he shyly smiled before scrunching his nose. “Yeah you should be scared you nimrod! Grrrr!” he clawed at Punz’s sides gently, grinning mischievously.

Punz melted at how soft the other was at the moment, giving his hand a tiny squeeze with a light hum. "I'm a nimrod huh? After how nice I've been, you're so rude~" The smile on his lips gave away that he didn't mind and his snickered softly at the nose scrunch. His lips parted to let out another tease that cut off with a squeak at the unexpected retaliation. "H-Hehey! Kaharl thahat's nohohot fahahair!"

“Yes you are! A very cute nimrod!” he grinned more, moving close to nuzzle noses with the other. Karl giggled softly at Punz, slowly moving his hands inward to claw at his tummy. “Awh come on- what’s not fair, hm?~” he cooed, his eyes wide and filled with excitement as he used one hand to poke and prod at Punz’s side. “Besides, I like hearing your squeaky giggles!”

"Nonohoho! Yoho- Yohohou're thehe cuhuhute ohohone!" Punz snorted and curled forward as much as he could, hiding his face up against Karl's neck to muffle his laugh. His face flushed a soft red as his giggle rose in volume at the switch of spots and one hand moved down to lightly bat at the one on his tummy. "KAHAhaharl! Nohohot thehehere yohohou're beheheing mehehean!"

Karl tilted his head, “You sure? I’m not the one who’s all giggly!~” he hummed, feeling the other’s face heat up against his neck and instantly knowing he was blushing. “Is this a good spot blushy baby?~ Is your tummy just a wiiiitle tickwish? Tickle tickle tickle Punzie~” he cooed in the same tone you’d use on a baby as he gently scribbled on the blonde’s tummy with both hands now. “Me? Being mean? What the actual honk- I’m never mean!” he faked a frown for a moment before smiling brightly and giggling.

Punz faked a whine as he moved his arms to wrap around him, not yet doing anything to stop his devious hands though. "Ihihi'm nohohot gihihiHIHIhiggly!" He mumbled through his soft laughter as the tips of his ears dusted pink from the teases. His fingers curled in to the back of Karl's hoodie and he buried his face deeper in to his neck. "Nononohoho! DohoHOHOhon't uhuhuse thahAHat tohohone.." His laugh was peppered with squeaks and bursts of louder giggles whenever an especially sensitive spot was hit. "Meheheanie!!"

“Not giggly? Yeah sorry but- I don’t believe that.” Karl giggled at how flustered the other seemed to get, tracing little hearts into his belly. “Why not, Punzie? Does it make the wittle baby all shy and flustered?~” he cooed softly as he tickled the sides of his stomach gently, grinning at how cute the blonde was being.

Punz practically melted at the light tickles even as his tummy sucked in a bit to escape the touches. "Kaha- Kahaharl.. stahap ihihit tihihickles!" His protests were clearly not serious as he slowly relaxed up against him, letting himself turn in to a puddle of sweet giggles. The blond played with the back of his hoodie as he shifted a bit to more comfortably rest his head on Karl's shoulder. "Dohohon't behehe ahaha buhuhully! Nihihimrod~"

“It tickles? I would have never had guessed!” Karl giggled again, booping Punz’s nose and cuddling him. The time traveler continued to trace and poke all over the blonde’s tummy. “Excuse me? Here I am cuddling you and giving you tickles, and you call me a nimrod! Rude!” he playfully huffed, scribbling all over his sides now. “Apologize now, Punzie!”

Punz was lost in his bubbly giggles for a moment as he curled his fingertips lightly in to Karl's hoodie, both the feeling and being help like this serving to make him relax. "Mm.. shuhudup.." He mumbled softly and let his eyes shut only to suddenly reopen them with a snort. His light squirms from earlier increased to wiggles as his laughter came out more frantically from before. "Nononohoho! Fohohor whahat? Tehe- tehehelling thehe truhuhuth?"

Karl held him close and cuddled him some more, rolling his eyes playfully. “Why should I? Besides, don’t act like you don’t like this, Punzie!~” The time traveler’s eyes lit up when he heard the snort, trailing his hands to the blonde’s lower back and then back to his sides. “The truth? You know what- I was saving this for the finale… but since you want to be a little knucklehead.” Karl pushed up Punz’s hoodie, slowly clawing at the bit of tummy pudge. “Do you like berries, Punzie?~”

Punz's laughter was filled with hiccups at the new spot, somehow being even more flustered than before as his hoodie was moved up. He shook his head and playfully batted at Karl's hands with no real force behind it. "Nononohoho Kahaharl! Thahat's nohohot fahahair! Nohoho beheherries!" The protests were punctuated with squeaks as he giggled against the brunet's neck. A few more tiny snorts pushed through as he twisted slightly from side to side.

“Awwh! You have very cute hiccups, nimrod.” Karl cooed softly and kneaded Punz’s back gently. “Hey! What the honk! Don’t hit my hands!” He playfully huffed and gave the blonde’s head a tiny flick. “Very rude!” The time traveler looked at Punz and did another playful huff. “It’s totally fair!” Karl protested back while moving to gently scribble all over the blonde’s sides. “It’ll only be a few raspberries! I promise!” The time traveler gave Punz a cheeky grin before doing raspberries all over his friend’s belly and sides.

"I dohohon't- kahaharl!" Punz's giggles shifted to softer ones as his back was targeted, relaxing a bit in to something more mellow for a few moments. The earned him a huff as he peeked out to stick his tongue out at him. He opened his mouth to protest against only to fall back in to hiccupy laughter, wiggling a bit from side to side. "Nohoho! Doho- dohoHOhon't!" His voice cracked as he tried to squirm away before throwing his head back, falling in to happy cackles. "NAHAHA! KAHAhaharl!"

”You definitely do! Stop being such a little knucklehead!” Karl giggled and booped Punz’s nose. The brunet gave the other a tiny huff back and flicked his head again. ”Wh- Oh my gosh!” Karl laughed at the blonde’s voice crack and smiled brightly at him. “It’ll only be like… two more I swear, Squeaky!” He kept his word and did a couple of raspberries, rubbing his tummy soothingly. “You okay bucko? Need anything?”

Punz curled in on himself as best he could, the last couple making him snort and shake his head. "NOHoho thahat- thahahat wahahas mehehean!" The blond still giggled quietly even as he began to relax and press closer to Karl's hand. Once he could speak more clearly he faked a pout and gently nudged him with his head. "Mmph.. next time I'm going to destroy you... nimrod~"

“Oh shush, Giggles. It wasn’t that mean.” Karl gave Punz’s head a little pat, smiling fondly. The time traveler let out a couple of nervous giggles, cuddling the blonde. “That won’t happen, knucklehead cause I can just do this.“ He gave the other’s sides a gentle squeeze, grinning mischievously.

Punz squeaked and let out a few bubbly giggles as he snuggled closer, hiding his smile against Karl's hoodie. "Nohoho- that's cheheating.." He whined playfully and moved his hands to give a light squeeze on both sides of the other's tummy. "I can do that too.. gigglebug..~"

Karl held the other close and grinned more. “No it’s not!” The time traveler huffed light-heartedly before letting out a loud squeak. “PuHuhunz!” One of his arms shot down immediately to cover his belly, the other playfully flicking the blonde’s forehead. “Rude!”

Punz snickered and gently batted at his hand, poking lightly at his tummy a few more times. "Pft.. there's my cute Karlee..~" He tilted his head up to press a soft raspberry against his neck. "If I wasn't feeling so nice right now, you'd be getting wrecked~"

Karl pouted slightly at the blonde’s snickers, giggling softly at the pokes. “H-hehehey!” The time traveler blushed and scrunched his shoulders up instinctively. “Not cuhuhute… and shuhuhut up k-knuhucklehead!” He curled into a ball and leaned against the other, letting out a tiny huff.

"I'm doing pretty good, I've been catchin up with old friends, chatting with my dads. Dove has convinced me to go see Quackity soon if you wanna come with me, she said he's too busy to leave Las Nevadas but he'd like us to visit so I'm going tomorrow. How are you my love?"

“I‘ll definitely come with you, Pandas.” Karl moved to hold Sapnap’s hand, squeezing it gently. “Oh and I’m happy you are good!” The smaller boy looked up and shrugged, smiling brightly. “I’ve been relaxing today but then I got bored as honk. So now I’m here!”

The time traveler had been laying there on his picnic blanket, getting lost in thought. He started to sort out his paintbrushes and his paints when he heard someone. Karl then looked around, getting excited and waving at Eret. “Hiiii Eret!” the smaller boy smiled brightly as the other walked over to him. “I don’t mind! Soooo- how are you!” he asked, resting his head on his hands and looking up at Eret with wide eyes.

“That’s good, buddy!” he hummed softly, reaching over to boop Eret’s nose. “Mmhm That’s why I’m painting outside! It’s just so nice out.” Karl sat up and stretched his arms, turning to look at the other. “Mmmhm! I think it came out pretty!” he smiled brightly as he fixed his hair, pointing to the lilac petals he painted. “I think the petals came out really good!”

Eret chuckled at the small boop on his nose, returning it and booping Karl’s nose back. “Makes sense, it’s very nice out today.” He agreed, turning his attention back towards the painting. “It is, it’s really good! I didn’t know you were into painting, Karl! Never really took you as an artsy type, if I’m being honest.” As he spoke, Eret picked up a clean paintbrush from his assortment of tools, examining it closely and twirling it in his fingers.

Karl giggled softly, scrunching his nose a little. He nodded, fidgeting with his hoodie sleeves. “Thank you! I like painting it’s really fun and relaxing! Except for when I have no idea what to paint- that isn’t too fun.” he rambled for a moment before getting hit with a burst of playfulness. “I never took you as the king type!” he said matter-of-factly before giggling.

Karl nodded, going back to fidgeting with his hoodie sleeves before glancing up when he felt the other looking at him. Karl giggled more, gently batting at Eret’s hand and scrunching his nose. “Yeah! Well I guess I’m full of surprises!” the time traveler grinned happily, getting a paintbrush and doing what the taller boy did to him. “Boop!”

“I guess you are!” The king laughed softly at Karl’s statement, and laughed again as he was booped. He twirled the paintbrush in between his fingers, before booping him with it on the noise again, then turning it around to the rounded end, poking his cheek with it. “Boop, and boop.” He chuckled. Two boops. One boop was interesting, but let’s see what Karl does against two of them.

The time traveler giggled more at the boops, his face turning a bit pink. Karl grinned before using the rounded side of the paintbrush to give little pokes all over Eret’s face. “Boop boop!” he said softly with each poke, smiling brightly. After he was done he looked at the other and gave him a playful grin. “Let’s see what you do now, buddy!” he said proudly, waving his hands around a bit.

Karl scrunched up his nose, leaning against their shoulder and giggling still. The smaller boy looked up at Eret with wide eyes before letting out a squeak. “Hehehey! That t-tihihickles! I don’t thihink thahat’s fair!” he squeaked out, flinching at every poke. He let out a light-hearted huff and used his brush to poke at Eret’s side. “How dohoho you lihihike it, nimrod!” he playfully cooed, looking up at the other with a big goofy grin.

“Wehehell...it is!” Karl looked up at Eret, smiling brightly as the other giggled. “Yohou have a cute laugh!” he said fondly, his giggling dying down for a moment before they got loud again. “EhEheret! StAhahaph!” The time traveler squirmed around in the other’s grasp, blushing a soft pink. “I’m nohoHot cuhute thohough! You aHahare!” The smaller boy cuddled into Eret as he let out a bunch of squeaks.

“Doesn’t seem like a little! You seem pretty ticklish, Karl!” He teased, grinning as he squeezed with one hand and poked with the other. “Aww, I appreciate the compliment. However, I think that your laugh is much cuter than mine.” Smirking slightly, Eret dropped the paintbrush onto the blanket and dug in, now squeezing and kneading at his sides using both hands. He chuckled as the other leaned into him, stopping momentarily and lightly ruffling his hair to show affection, then going back to continuing his attack.

Karl’s face got more pink at the teasing, huffing playfully. “ShuhUhush! DoHon’t t-teaseHehe, meheHeanie!” He was about to retaliate and tickle Eret back until he let out a loud sound that was a mix of a squeal and a squeak, moving his arms to his sides and squirming around. “ThAHAHahat ticklehEhes!” he said in-between his laughter, looking at Eret and smiling softly at the hair ruffling then going back to hiding his face.

“No teasing? Why not? I don’t see anything wrong with it! It just makes your face go pink, which is pretty cute, and definitely not a bad thing.” He laughed along with Karl, spidering his fingers all around his sides. His eyes widened in surprised at the loud noise that came out of Karl’s mouth, and he smirked. “It tickles? Well, that’s kind of the whole point, isn’t it? It’s supposed to tickle, Karl.” Eret continued to tease, laughing softly as Karl hid his face. He moved his hands up, not quite leaving his sides just yet, but moving up closer to the ribs.

“It’s sohoho fluhustering!” he whined softly, hiding his bright pink face from the other. Karl could hear the smirk in their voice, letting out another small whine as his giggling lessened slightly. Teasing always flustered him beyond belief and this time was no expectation. “I’ll wreheck the hohohonk outta yohou, Eret!” he said playfully before making a tiny ‘grrr’ sound and making claw hands at Eret.

Karl softly disagreed, burying his head in Eret’s shoulder. “Nohot adohorable!” He put his hoodie on for maximum hiding and shook his head. The time traveler then perked up a bit, looking up at Eret and noticing the faint blush. “I meeeeannn-“ he started, getting butterflies at the way Eret was talking. “I definitely would if it means I can see more of this cute blush!” Karl smiled brightly, booping her cheek and then her nose. The smaller boy got comfy and looked up at Eret, his butterflies intensifying. “Wait no no no doHohon’t!” he squeaked, his legs kicking out a bit.

“Stop lying! You’re very adorable!” Eret said, suddenly having an idea. “In fact...until you say that you’re adorable, I’m not going to stop tickling you.” His voice lowered in pitch in an attempt to fluster the other. However, once Karl mentioned his blush, the tables were quickly turned. “What blush? I don’t know what you’re talking about.” He asked, only to end up blushing more. Eret smiled at the small boops before continuing to spider along Karl’s ribs. “Hm? Not going to admit you’re adorable yet? Well, I guess I’ll have to tickle it out of you!” He smirked, suddenly digging his fingers in between both sides of Karl’s ribs and vibrating them to increase the sensitivity.

“I’m nohohot lyihing!” he playfully huffed, letting out a nervous whine as Eret’s voice lowered. His laughter slowly died down and he looked up at Eret, tilting his head like a confused puppy. “Whahat do you mehehan? There is obviously a blush on your face!” Karl gently cupped their face, squishing their cheeks. “A blushy king!” he smiled brightly before squeaking and crumbling in the other’s arms. “AH- WhAhahat the hOhohonk!”

“Yes you are! You keep saying you’re not adorable, which is a complete and utter lie!” Eret laughed along with his friend, continuing to dig in between each and every rib on Karl’s body. Even though he didn’t have a mirror to look at his own reflection, Eret knew he was blushing from the heat he could feel on his cheeks, and he only blushed more with Karl’s statement, face-cupping, and cheek-squeaking. “There definitely isn’t.” He lied, vibrating his fingers into the time traveler’s ribs more, hoping to throw him off of the subject and distract him.

“Nohoho! I dohon’t liehe!” Karl curled up a bit and hide his face in his hands. He peeked out and looked at Eret, tilting his head at the obvious lying. “Thehere definihitely is! Lohohook! It’s hehere!” he said matter-of-factly, pointing to their rosy cheeks before yelping and laughing more. He wiggled around, trying to cover up his ribs. “StaHahahph!”

“Sohoho are yohou, nimrohod!” Karl leaned against him, letting out a playful and grumpy huff. He looked up at Eret, pouting and giggling. “I won’t agree cause it’s a lie!” he poked Eret’s side a few times. “You. Are. The. Cutie.” The time traveler continued to act like a pouty and grumpy child before he melted completely in Eret’s arms. He let out soft, squeaky giggles and leaned into the touch.

“Whatever!” Eret laughed, enjoying the playful banter that he was currently having with Karl. Giggles were quick to slip out as Karl poked him, and he quickly slapped a hand over his mouth in an attempt to muffle his soft laughter. “It’s nohot a lihie! I’m seherihiohous abohout thihis, and you should be too! You’re. More. Cute. Than. I. Am!” Eret mimicked the other, poking his stomach each time he paused in his sentence. He grinned at the other’s reaction, knowing that Karl was only proving his point.

“Whatever!” Karl playfully mocked their voice, doing a horrible accent and giggling. His attention quickly turned to Eret, smiling brightly at the other’s laughter. “It definitely is a lie, mister! You a-ahare cuhuhuter!” he giggled at every poke, blushing slightly. “You have a cuhuhute blush ahahand cute gihihiggles which meeaaannns-“ he said, moving to give Eret’s tummy a squeeze for emphasis. “Cute!”

“Oh my gohohod! I shohouhuld wreheck yohou just as a puhunihishmehent for that ahawfuhul accent.” Eret said through giggles, obviously in a joking manner. He continued to poke his stomach and blushed more at Karl’s statements, his cheeks now dusted with a rosy shade of pink. “Ihit’s nohot a lie, you’re cuter! Ahand I’m not bluSHIHIHING!” A loud squeak came out of his mouth when Karl squeezed at his tummy. Eret’s poke-filled attack stopped, and he leaned into Karl as giggles poured out of his mouth at a fast rate.

Karl’s face turned a bright pink and shook his head. “Don’t talk like that! It’s flustering!” he softly replied, giggling at the pokes and reaching up to boop Eret’s cheeks. “It is a lie and you know it! Plus you just lied right now so how can I trust you?” he grinned mischievously, his eyes going wide at the loud squeak. “Squeaky toy! Oh and you totally are blushing! I have eyes ya know!” The time traveler smiled fondly at how cute Eret was acting, picking him up and plopping him gently in his lap. Karl booped his nose then wiggled his fingers teasingly. “Looks like the tables have turned, huh Eret?~”

“Oh, really? It’s flustering? Ahahaww, that’s so cute!” Eret laughed, making another mental note in his head about what did and didn’t make Karl flustered. However, the tables were quick to turn when Karl had squeezed at his stomach. “B-But I dihidn’t lihie! Yohou’re cUhuteher thahan mehEHE!” He said, letting out a yelp as Karl readjusted him to be sitting in his lap. “Wohohoah, wahahait! Kahaharl!” Eret giggled, knowing what was coming next. He didn’t exactly try to stop him though, honestly a bit curious to see how Karl would take his revenge.

“Ah- shuuushhh!” he whined softly, his face getting more pink. Despite this, Karl still was grinning at the other, making a little ‘tsk tsk’ sound and shaking his head like a disappointed parent. “You never stop lying....geez I think you lied like....a bajillion times Eret!” he pretended to count on his fingers, giggling and raising an eyebrow at the other. “Karl? I’m not Karl!” he grinned mischievously, making claw hands and showing Eret. “I’m the tickle monster and I like to eat little kings like you!~” he let out a playful growl and moved to nibble their neck gently, making tiny ‘om nom nom’ sounds as he did so.

“A-And? So did you! You also lied, you’re just as guilty!” He snapped back, giggling nervously. Ah, shit. He was really in for this, wasn’t he? He didn’t know if Karl would be soft or more intense with his revenge, but he knew that Karl would probably find one way of another to get him laughing hard. Once he started to nibble along the king’s neck, sweet, soft giggling came from Eret’s mouth. “Nohohoho! Kahaharl!” He giggled, scrunching up his shoulders and attempting to squirm away from the nibbles.

“How dare you! I never lie!” he faked a gasp and stopped the nibbling to look him in the face with a playfully stern look. Karl moved his hands to Eret’s neck and wiggled his fingers teasingly then moved to his tummy. “Yes Karl! I want to hear allllllll your cute little giggles and squeaks!~” he cooed and gently kneaded his belly, occasionally moving to poke his sides. “You are such a big cutie, buddy!” the time traveler gently ruffled his hair and continued his tickling.

“Yehes yohou do! You juhust lihiehed to mehe lihike, tehen tihimes!” He chuckled, leaning up to gently poke Karl’s cheek. He stayed calm, waiting for Karl to strike at his neck again. But instead, he went for his stomach, and Eret didn’t expect it at all, letting out surprised laughter. “WOHOHOAH- KahaHAHARL! Kahaharl, yohou’re eHEHEvihil!” He sputtered out through his laughter, which was louder than it had been before, and would get louder and squeakier with each side poke. “Ihihi’m nohohot a cuhutihihie!” Eret disagreed once again, his head leaning into Karl’s hand as he ruffled his hair.

“I don’t think I lied! Maybe you are just getting old!” he teased, smiling brightly and poking his cheek back. Karl’s eyes lit up at their reaction, stopping the tickles to look fondly at Eret. “Holy honk you are so cute!!” he cheerfully hummed, going back to tickling them but this time going to their hips and scribbling gently. “I’m not evil- but if you need a break please tell me. I don’t want to be known as the guy who killed a king.” he made a joke but he was being serious & gave the other a reassuring head pat. Karl moved to nuzzle his neck for a moment. “I think you are in deniallllllll!~”

“Dihid yohou juhust lihie toho mehe abohouhut nohot lyihing toho mehe?! Kaharl, how dahare yohou!” He joked, laughing both at the tickling and the humor in this situation. “Ihi’m nohot cuhuhute! Yohou’re the cuhute oHOne!” Eret squeaked, laughing as his hips were targeted, and kicking his legs a little bit. He attempted to nod when Karl told him to say if he needed a break, but due to his laughter, it came out as more of a slightly aggressive headbang. “Nohoho Ihihi’m nOHOHOT!!” He giggled, not really making an attempt to stop Karl, at least not yet.

Karl laughed a bit and shook his head. “I don’t lie what the honk! How many times do I got to tell you, old man!” he teased, booping his nose and tilting his head slightly. “You sure? Cause all I’m hearing is super adorable giggles and squeaks and they certainly aren’t mine.” The time traveler stayed at his hips, switching from scribbling to squeezing every so often. Karl used one hand to play with her hair and then moved to gently trace under their chin. “I think you are in denial, angel.~”

“Yohou’ve lihihied abohohout nohot beheihing cuhute plehenty ohof tihimes soho fahahar!” The king refuted, laughing softly and leaning into the touches from Karl on his head. He blushed slightly at the comment from Karl about his “adorable giggles and squeaks,” squeaking whenever Karl would switch tactics, only proving his point. “Ihihi’m nohohot ihin dehenihiahal, Ihi’m juhust sahayihing thahat yohou’re cuhuteher thahan mehe.”

“I’m not cute though! How can I lie about something that isn’t true!” Karl raised an eyebrow, playing with their hair and using his other hand to gently tickle her ribs. “Tickle tickle tickle!~” he cooed softly, smiling fondly at Eret and giggling when he noticed the blush. “Okay fine, I’m a teensy bit cute but you!” Karl held her face gently in his hands, rubbing their blushing cheeks gently. “You are extremely cute!”

“Ohoho, shuhut uhup!” Eret snapped at the other lightheartedly. “Yohou’re cuhuhute, ahand yohou knohohow ihiHIHIT!” His giggles suddenly escalated in volume when Karl went to his ribs. Although it was gentle, it was unbearable. He kicked out his legs, fast paced giggling coming out of his mouth as he frantically grabbed for Karl’s arm, holding his hand around his wrist. “Kahaharl! Kaharl. Kahahaharl, nohoho, pleheheahase. I cahan’t hahandle thahat.” Eret giggled, his heart racing a little bit fast as the other held his face, but he still held onto Karl’s wrists. “Ihif Ihi’m ehextrehemely cuhute, thehen yohou’re ehextrehemely cuhute tihimes tehehen!” He said, a goofy smile on his face.

“That’s rude!” Karl faked a gasp, pouting at the other. “You know just for that.” he moved close to Eret’s neck and did one tiny raspberry. The time traveler stopped the tickling the second Eret grabbed his hand, soothingly rubbing their back. “You okay? You want anything?” Karl asked, looking at Eret with wide eyes then smiling softly at the goofy look the other had. “Shush- you are extremely cute times ten, giggles.” He moved to cuddle Eret, playing with her hair and smiling brightly. “I like your laugh...it’s really pretty.”

Eret smirked when Karl called him rude, enjoying the small, silly banter between the two of them. The raspberry made him yelp out of surprise, then quickly dissolve back into giggles. “Noho, no, you’re okay! I’m fine! I’m just...I’m wahay too ticklish there.” He admitted sheepishly, the same blush he had earlier reappearing. He wouldn’t necessarily mind if Karl continued, though. The king laughed softly, leaning into Karl as he cuddled with him. “And? So are you, Squeaky.” Eret smiled as he gave Karl a new nickname. “...Thank you. I like yours a lot, too. It’s pretty cute.”

“Oh okay!” Karl looked at Eret, tilting his head and smiling softly. “Do you...want me to continue?” he asked, booping his cheeks gently and smiling more when he cuddled him back. The time traveler blushed a bit at the nickname and giggled. “I’m not squeaky! You are the squeaky one!” he gave their side a gentle squeeze and giggled. Karl felt his face heat up more, fidgeting with his sweater paws. “Thank you, giggles.”

“...Ah- um-” Eret stammered quietly. Even though he wasn’t the flustered type, this was a tad bit embarrassing, he had to admit. He smiled softly when Karl blushed, only to find himself letting out a small squeak when he squeezed his side. “Yohou’re wehelcohome, Squeheahaky.” He giggled, blushing a bit before he answered his question from earlier. “...I wouldn’t really mind it, if you continue. Only do it if you want to, though! I’m fine with you not doing it if you’re not comfortable with it.”

Karl looked at Eret, smiling softly as he ruffled their hair. “Take your time!” he reassured the other, giggling with him and doing little boops all over her face. “Gosh you have such amazing giggles!” he cooed, his eyes widening as he let out his best evil giggle. “Oh? So you want the tickle monster to come back?~” The time traveler wiggled his fingers teasingly at the other, scrunching up his nose as he smiled.

Karl messed with Eret’s hair, ruffling and swirling it in his hands. “Thank you but I think your giggles are wayyyy cuter!” he grinned, letting out a laugh as the other moved down. “Where are you going, huh cutie? How am I supposed to cuddle you now?” he teased, his eyes lighting up when Eret said yes. Karl rested his hands on their sides, raising an eyebrow as he traced little circles. “Now...where do you want me to tickle you? I can stay here at your sides or go here!“ he moved to scratch under their chin then to gently trace their knees. “Or I can try your wittle knees!”

“Hmm...that’s debatable. That’s very, very debatable.” He chuckled. When Karl asked where he was going, he rolled his eyes, mumbling out a quick, lighthearted response of “You’re so mean...” and moving back up towards Karl, leaning his head in the crook of his neck. Eret yelped when Karl traced along his sides, already bursting into small giggles. Going to his knees didn’t help either, and he quickly squeaked and shuffled his legs away from Karl’s hands. “I-I dohohon’t know, Karl. You’re the one in chaharge here, yohou can dehecihide. I’m not that picky, I’m fine with whahateheveher.” He said, giggling as he leaned into the other’s body.

“It’s not debatable, nimrod!” Karl smiled, laughing at Eret’s response and ruffling his hair. “Oh please- I’m not even being mean. You’re just a baby.” he teased, waiting for Eret to answer his question. “If you say so! Hmm...I think I’ll stay at your knees.” The time traveler smiled softly and gently scribbled on their knees, looking up at them to see their reaction.

“I think it’s debatable. You’re cute and you have a very cute laugh, don’t deny it.” He said, smiling and light booping Karl on the nose with his finger. “And I’m not a baby! You’re just mean!” Eret laughed softly at the antics from himself and his friend. He waited in anticipation for where Karl would start, and when he scribbled at his knees, Eret let out a yelp of surprise, instinctively covering his mouth with one hand. “KahAHAharl! Oho my goHOHohod!” He said through giggles, leaning into the time traveller’s body.

Karl blushed a bit and out a tiny ‘no’ and scrunched his nose, giggling softly. “I’m never mean! You’re just a big baby!” he smiled brightly as soon as Eret started to giggle, continuing to scribble but every so often switching to kneading. “Yeeees?~” he asked, batting his eyelashes playfully at the other. “Is something wrong?” The time traveler decided to act oblivious, a cheeky smile now plastered on his face as he tilted his head. “Why are you giggling? What’s so funny?”

The king chuckled softly as Karl blushed, smiling and quietly saying “yes” in response. He rolled his eyes, nudging the other lightly. “That’s not true. I’m not a baby, and you’re being rude.” As Karl scribbled at his knees, Eret started to laugh more, still covering his mouth. He gave the other a sharp glare out of playful annoyance, even though he knew the other wouldn’t be able to see beyond his pitch black sunglasses. “Ohoho, shuhut uhup! Yohou knohow ehexahactly why I’m lahaughihing, KahAHarl!” He giggled. Karl wasn’t allowed to act oblivious, that was his thing! It was a little bit embarrassing being on the receiving end of the obliviousness, but it was all in good fun, so Eret didn’t mind it.

Karl let out tiny giggles at how ridiculous they both were being. “Oh please- you are a big baby! I don’t think it’s rude to tell you the truth!” he grinned softly at their giggling, moving one hand to poke and prod at Eret’s tummy while the other stayed at his knees. “Shut up? Well that’s kinda rude….I just want to know why you’re laughing, cutie~” he teased, booping their nose and giggling. “You’re so cute! I could just eat you up- in fact!” The time traveler got a mischievous grin and slowly lifted up Eret’s shirt. “Ooooh~ I’m gonna getchaaa!~ I’m gonna getcha Eret and there is nowhere to hiiiiide!”

“It is very rude, sir. Someone aught to teach you some manners.” Eret reached over to light boop Karl’s nose before dissolving back into giggles. His laughter suddenly increased in pitch, and he kicked his legs out when Karl moved a hand down to his stomach. “Yohohou knoHOHOW why I’m lahaughihihing!” He said to Karl, continuing to take things well until felt the other pushing his shirt up. Eret squeeked, covering his mouth with one hand. “Ohohoho nohohoho...” He giggled, hiding his smile behind his hand. Knowing how sensitive his stomach was, nearly anything would work in this spot, and it was all a matter of what strategies Karl wanted to try. He didn’t know what to expect from his friend, and the anticipation was killing him.

Karl laughed softly and booped Eret’s nose back. “I don’t need to be taught anything you silly nimrod!” he gasped playfully then grinned at how quickly the other’s laughter increased, gently kneading the king’s belly for a moment. “Ooohh! Are you laughing cause I’m tickling you?~ Is that what has you all squeaky and giggly?~” he cooed softly, grinning more at the now flustered king in front of him. “You look so cute when your flustered, Eret~” The time traveler slowly moved his hands towards their tummy, wiggling his fingers teasingly. “The tickle monster is gonna getcha, Squeaky!~” Karl looked at other for a moment then let out a playful growl and started to scribble all over his belly.

“I think you do. Don’t think I haven’t forgotten about what I said earlier!” Eret smirked a bit, recalling how he said that he wouldn’t stop tickling Karl until the other admitted that he was the cuter one out of the two of them. However, he didn’t expect Karl to retaliate with his own attack, so that plan was currently on hold. With his mouth still covered, he ushered out a small, giggled-filled “yes” and nodded his head, nervous for what was to come. “I- Ihi’m nohot fluhustehered.” He said, a small, faint blush on his face. When Karl dug in, Eret’s laughter quickly picked back up in volume. The fact that it was now his bare skin being attacked, and there was no protective fabric of his shirt, made it even more unbearable. “NoooohohoHAHA! WoHOHOAH- KahaHAHArl!” He sputtered out through his bubbly giggling.

The time traveler’s face slowly turned pink as he giggled shyly. “I don’t know w-what you mean.” Karl looked away as soon as he saw Eret smirk, huffing playfully at how flustered he got. “I would shush if I were you! You are the one who’s getting tickles right now!” The brunet then booped their cheeks gently, his flusteredness slowly melting away as he looked at the giggly king in front of him. “You totally are! I see the blush on your cheeks, cutie!” Karl cooed as he switched to kneading her tummy gently, his eyes widening slightly. “Awhhh! Is your tummy just too ticklish, Eret?~ Tickle tickle tickle tickle!~”

“Awww, did you forget already?” Eret giggled as he saw Karl’s pink face. “I said that I wouldn’t stop tickling you until you said that you were adorable. Although, you did turn the tables on me, I’ll admit that. But don’t think I’m just going to let you off scot free after this.” A small smirk was on his face as he watched Karl be on the flustered end for the first time in a few minutes. However, his small moment of confidence quickly faded away as he was back on the receiving end, bubbly laughter flowing out from his lips. “Nohohohoooo!” Eret whined, a small squeak escaping his mouth when Karl started kneading.

Karl fidgeted with his hoodie strings, whining softly as the other talked. “Oh shush! You won’t do a-anything cause I can just tickle you and you’d stop! Cause you’re a big cute lee!” he cleared his throat and furrowed his brows at Eret’s smirk. “Hhmmph- you are such a nimrod!” The time traveler then grinned instantly as soon as the taller boy started to laugh. “Awhh~ See? You are just a big cutie!” he cooed softly, using his other hand to scribble at his thigh.

“Oho, don’t you dare say that. You may have gotten away with calling me cute, but don’t you dare try and call me a lee, Karl Jacobs.” Eret continued to be snarky, smirking at the other. Well, he was a bit of a lee, but only half of the time! It just so happened to be that now was one of those times. “I aham nohohot! Yohohou’re wahahay cuhuHUteher!” The king squeaked, leaning into his friend as he felt a hand scribble at his thigh. However, Eret had decided that it was time to strike back. Leaning forwards with the strength he had, he used one hand to start to squeeze at Karl’s side.

The time traveler let out tiny nervous giggles, covering his mouth and shaking his head. “Shut up oh my honk.” This wasn’t fair! Karl was supposed to be flustering them! “You are the cutest ever! You got cute giggles, a cute smile, everything about you is cute!” he cooed softly as he leaned towards their neck and blew a raspberry. Halfway through the raspberry however Karl jerked his head away and squealed, giggling almost instantly. “WhAHat the hohonk! EreHehet!” he whined softly, trying to move their hand away while simultaneously tickling their thigh. “Noho fair! You ahahare the lee right n-nohow!”

“Yehehahah, buhut yohou’re stihihill wahahay cuhuhuter!” Eret insisted. He wasn’t sure how long him and Karl had been at this, but he knew that he wouldn’t stop denying it until he got the sweet answer that he desired. His shoulders stiffened up when Karl blew a raspberry into the king’s neck, and he laughed softly before feeling Karl’s hand pull away and hearing his giggling. “Yohou’ve hahad yohour fuhun, Kahaharl. Buhut nohow, ihit’s tihime fohor mehe toho tahake bahack the crohown!” He giggled, moving from squeezing to now scribbling at the time traveler’s side.

“Nope! You are the biggest cutie to ever live! Don’t deny it!” Karl’s eyes then widened and he instantly started giggling and squealing when the tables were turned. “N-nohOho! I wahahant to be thehehe bihig scary leheher!” he softly whined, booping Eret’s side. The brunet hide in his hands, wondering if Eret was going to be mean or not. Whatever the outcome he knew he’d still be very flustered at anything the king said. “Thihihis isn’t f-fair.”

“Nohohot truhuhue! Thehere’s ohone bihig cuhuhutihie I knohohow, ahand hihis nahame ihis Kaharl Jahacohobs!” Eret giggled, grinning as Karl started to squeal. His laughter started to calm down, and he sat up and wrapped an arm around Karl, pulling into a side hug with one hand, and lightly tracing along his side with the other. “You’ve been a great ler, Karl, but it’s about time you get the lee experience!” He smiled at the other’s embarrassment, before taking the hand that rested on his shoulder and moving it to the neck, scratching lightly with the tips of his fingernails. The hand on his side lightly grabbed one of Karl’s hands and moving it away slowly, so that the two of them could make eye contact with each other. “This is your last chance to admit that you’re the cutest one out of the two of us, Karl. Or else...I’m not going to be so nice.” Eret lowered the tone of his voice, adding a thin, evil layer to the playful fun.

“Wehehell you are wrohohong! Yohohou are thehehe cutihihie!” he booped their nose gently and smiled before letting out squeaky giggles. “I wahahas a gohohood ler?” The brunet looked at him curiously, getting excited and leaning against Eret. If we’re being honest, hearing him say that made the time traveler melt a little. Karl watched Eret’s hand, scrunching up his shoulders and squealing softly. “Hehehey! Nohohot there!” The smaller boy’s eyes widened at the change in tone and immediately hide his head in Eret’s shoulder. “B-buhuhut I’m nohohot!” he softly giggled, curling up a little.

“Not true! That role goes to you. And...you were a fantastic ler, Karl. I had a great time.” Eret said, a small tint of pink on his face at his admittance. “However, I’m gonna have a lot of fun making sure you were laughing just as much as I was!” He teased. The king’s eyes widened as he noticed Karl scrunch up his shoulders, grinning when he hid his head in his shoulder. “You’re really asking for this, aren’t you?” He mumbled under his breath when Karl once again refused to admit that he was cute. “Now, tell me Karl. Is your neck a bad spot?” Not waiting for an answer, Eret lightly stroked his fingers, feather light touches now moving along the side of Karl’s neck.

“Nope! It goes to you! Awh- thank you, Eret! I liked tickling you!” Karl booped both of their cheeks and smiled brightly. The time traveler’s eyes widened a bit, a small blush growing on his face. “Oh shush!” The smaller boy peeked out from Eret’s shoulder, noticing the grin and hiding away again. “D-don’t look at me like that!” Karl was about to answer but instead a bunch of giggles and squeaks came out. “I thihink everywhehehere is a bahad spot.” he thought out loud, blushing more instantly.

“I liked it too, it was fun! I had a good time!” The king giggled lightly as Karl booped his cheeks, and he poked his cheek back in response. He continued to lightly trace his fingers along Karl’s neck, finding a little bit too much enjoyment in this whole thing. “Like what? I’m just looking at you like normal. What’s wrong? Am I making you blush?” Eret’s grin remained on his face, and it seemed like it had no intention of leaving soon. “Woah, every spot? I mean, I knew you were ticklish Karl, but...hmm. Let’s see, what spots haven’t I tested out yet? Ah, I know!” Eret giggled evilly, slipping his free hand underneath Karl’s hoodie and startling to lightly scribble along his belly.

“Yay!” Karl cheered softly, smiling brightly as the other giggled and booped his cheeks. The smaller boy had his shoulder scrunched up a bit, giggling and letting out tiny squeaks. “Oh my hohohonk! S-shuhut up!” Karl moved to hide in his hands, blushing more at the king’s teasing. “Dohohon’t act likehe you arehehen’t very tihicklish too, Eret!” he peeked out from behind his hands, pouting a bit before it quickly got replaced with a nervous smile at Eret’s evil giggle. “Wait what spot are yo- aHah!” the time traveler arched his back slightly and buried his face in his arms.

“Shut up? Why should I shut up when I can talk about how cute you’re being? You keep squeaking and getting flustered, and it’s adorable!” Eret dragged out the last word, making sure to fluster Karl in any way that he could. “Hmm, I am, I’ll admit that. But so are you! You get all cute and blushy and squeaky.” He giggled at the time traveler’s reactions, a thin layer of evil over every word that came out of his lips. “Oh, come on, Karl. This has got to be very ticklish for you. I know how much you want to laugh, all loud and freely~” Another evil giggle came from Eret as the king teased Karl.

“I am n-nohohot cute or adorablehehe or anythihihing!” Karl babbled out as he hid more in his hands, unable to handle any kind of teasing or compliments. The time traveler let out a soft whine, playfully (and gently) swatting Eret’s hand. “Thihihis is so mehehean, ya knohow!” he huffed light-heartedly and let out another whine, peeking out from behind his arm. “You dohohon’t knohohow anything, nimrohohod!” Karl moved his arms away and snuggled into Eret. He blushed more as soon as he heard the evil giggles the king let out. “Meaniehehe.”

“Yes you are, and we both know it! You’re the most adorable little lee that I’ve ever seen!” Eret protested. He raised an eyebrow as the other swatted at his hand. “Mean? You think this is mean? Karl, I can show you mean!” Another evil giggle. Without warning, Eret quickly sped up the movements of his fingers, scribbling all over his belly at a fast rate. “Come on, Karl! All you have to say is that you’re more cuter than me! And then, all of this can stop, and we can have a nice cuddle after this! But only once you admit that you’re a big cutie.”

Karl felt his cheeks all warm, blushing a bright shade of pink as he wiggled around. “Nohoho way! Thahahat’s yohohou!” The time traveler was about to say something else before looking at Eret with wide eyes. “I don’t lihike the wahay you keheep l-laHAhaughiHing!” Karl’s giggling quickly turned into squeaky laughter as he curled up a bit. “Eret! NoHoHOho!” he babbled, pouting slightly at the king before burying his head in their chest. “I’m noHoHot thoHough!”

“I’m not a lee, Karl! You, on the other hand...you’re such a lee. The way you squirm around and giggle is so adorable, and shows how much of a lee you are!” Eret teased, a genuine laugh spilling out of his lips when Karl mentioned his laughter. “What, like this?” He leaned into Karl’s ear, giggling evilly, making sure this one sounded plenty menacing, right before taking a breath and blowing a huge raspberry into the side of his neck, then peppering a few smaller ones. “Awww, Karl! Stop hiding your face, I wanna see your cute smile!” He lightly ruffled the other’s hair. “Speaking of...are you ready to admit that you’re cuter than me yet? Or is it going to take a little more convincing?”

The smaller boy whined softly, shaking his head ‘no’ and snuggling into Eret. Karl scrunched up his shoulders when he heard the evil (and extremely mean) giggle, lightly batting at their head. “Stop t-tHAHAhat! ErEHehet oHohoH my h-hoHonk!” he stayed hidden in the other’s chest, his laughter peppered with little squeaks as he protected his neck. “You lohohost those p-privilegeHehes!” he playfully huffed, leaning into the hair pets. “No waHahay!”

The king giggled at Karl’s antics, deciding that now was the time to kick it up a notch. With some struggle, he moved Karl off of him, laying him down, face up, across the blanket on the grass. “Awww, there we go! There’s that cute little face!” He smiled, lightly booping Karl on the nose before putting a hand back under his sweater and quickly scribbling. Eret gasped, moving Karl’s sweater and shirt up to reveal his bare stomach. “Y’know, Karl, I just thought of a great idea! Every time you tell me that you aren’t cute, I give you a raspberry, like this!” Another evil giggle came from Eret before he leaned down and blew a raspberry on Karl’s stomach. It might be an evil plan, but hey! He would get to see Karl laugh more, and that’s an opportunity that shouldn’t be passed up.

Karl wiggled around when the other moved him away, his eyes widening as he looked up at Eret. The smaller boy hid his smile behind his hands, blushing faintly. “S-stop fluhustehering meHEhehe!” he whined, sucking in his stomach a bit when his sweater was lifted up. “What ahare you doing?” he softly asked, tilting his head like a confused little puppy. His question then got answered and he tried to push his sweater down. “H-hey waihit don’t you dAHAHAhare! A-aHah! YoHoHOhou nihihimrod!” Oh and an evil plan it was. Karl’s soft giggles quickly turned to loud laughter. He wiggling around like crazy as he tried to cover his sensitive belly from the king. “You aHahare eviHihil!”

“Awww, why? You’re so cute when you get flustered, though! You giggle a ton and your face gets all pink and blushy, it’s adorable!” Eret cooed, laughing softly at Karl. A huge grin was on his face the whole time as he explained his plan and saw the other panic. He gasped dramatically, placing a hand over his heart. “Karl Jacobs, I am not evil! I am simply a ruler who has demands. And right now, the king demands to hear laughter from his royal subjects!” He made sure Karl saw his hands form into claw shapes before he dug in and lightly clawed at his bare belly with all ten fingers. “And just think, this can all stop if you say that you’re not only adorable, but more adorable than me. I think it’s a pretty simple deal, no? But you’re being stubborn, so I had to kick things up a notch.”

Karl let out a tiny whine from all the cooing and giggled, feeling very flustered and blushy. “Nohope nope noHohope! You better shuhut up!” he said light-heartedly as he gently batted at their arm. As soon as the king did the raspberries Karl practically crumbled in his grasp. The time traveler looked up at Eret, his eyes widening as he smiled shyly. He obviously was flustered before, but Eret saying that definitely made it 100% worse. “You are ahahan evihihil kiHihing! Hehey wait noho don’t do thAHahat! AhAh!” he squeaked loudly and curled into the king’s touch, kicking his legs out. “I-I am noHohot adoHohorable or stubboHOhorn!”

“Shut up? Wow, Karl. You’re being so rude to your ruler, how could you do such a thing?” Eret asked, continuing to scribble at Karl’s tummy. “Karl, I am not evil! I’m just ambitious! I have a goal in mind, which is to make you admit that you’re cuter than me, and I will stop at nothing to make sure I complete that goal.” He lowered his voice to tease the other. Well, nothing but Karl reaching his limit, he meant. He might be mean, but he would stop if the other was getting too tired out. “Oh, Karl! What did you just say you weren’t? Did you just say you’re not adorable? That’s another raspberry for you!” Eret leaned down, giving Karl another big, long raspberry on his bare skin, in the center of his stomach. Once he finished with that, he quickly skittered his fingers along Karl’s stomach, moving them around as fast as he could. “Awww, you’re so cute, Karl! Tickle tickle tickle!” He teased with an excited smile.

“WeHell stohohop being a nimrohohod thehehen, Eret!” Karl looked at the other, letting out a nervous squeak as soon as Eret lowered their voice. The time traveler pressed his hands to his mouth to try and muffle his laughter and squeaks- which immediately failed. “AHAHA! EreHEhet yoHohoHou d-duHuhummy!” he squealed and tried to half-heartedly push them away. Karl blushed even more (if that is even possible) and shook his head. “S-shUHut up! Dohohon’t sAhahay that!”

“A nimrod?! Why, Karl! I would never be a nimrod!” Eret gasped, pretending to be offended, then giggled at Karl’s behavior. He relished in each and every reaction from the time traveler. Not only was it absolutely adorable, but it would also be useful to gather information for later. “Aww, Karl! Did you just try to hide your laughter from me? That makes me sad, you know I just love to hear it!” Despite his teasing, it was a genuine compliment from Eret. And even though the king was greatly enjoying this, he had to make sure his friend wasn’t reaching his limits. “You still hanging in there, Karl? Not too tired out yet?” He asked, slowing his movements down to light skittering over his tummy.

“You alwahahays are one thohohough!” Karl joked through his giggles, leaning against the other. Eret’s teasing made Karl practically melt in his grasp, his cheeks and ears fully pink. “I’m sohohorry!” The time traveler felt extremely happy and hide in his hands. Karl nodded as he let out little happy giggles and squeaks, his tummy shaking at the light tickles. “I am ohohokay, don’t wohohorry!” he peeked out from behind his hands and poked Eret’s cheek a few times, smiling brightly. “B-bohohoop!”

“No I’m not! If anything, you’re being a nimrod with how much you’ve been provoking me.” He teased him as he continued on his quest to make Karl admit that he was adorable. Eret smiled, gently pulling the other towards him with a free hand. “Oh, you better be. I love hearing you laugh Karl, and you know what I have to do to get those laughs out of you! Actually, y’know what I love, Karl? That your laugh is so full of… variety! You giggle, you squeak, you squeal… it’s an adorable sight, really.” The king’s tone was no longer teasey, and was filled with genuine words. He laughed as Karl booped his cheek, deciding to do the same. A boop to his cheek, a boop to his bottom rib, a boop to his side, a boop to his belly button, and many more, spread throughout his body. With each poke, Eret would smile and make a “boop!” noise with his mouth.

“I didn’t prohohovoke you! Stop lyihihing!” Karl’s giggles slowly lessened and he leaned against Eret. As he listened to the other talk he hid behind his sweater paws and felt his heart melt at what the king was saying. “T-thank you so much.” he smiled shyly and let out little giggles before squealing loudly at the poke to his belly button. “Hehehey!” The time traveler half-heartedly pushed Eret’s hand, bouncing his heels happily at all the little boops. Karl booped the king’s hand, then his nose, then his cheek. “Boops fohohor the cuhutie!” he smiled brightly at Eret and hid once again behind his sweater paws.

“Hmmm… you sure~?” Eret sang, lightly running his fingers through Karl’s hair. He smiled even more seeing Karl smile and giggle. “I’m only speaking the truth! Even if you won’t admit, you really are adorable, Karl, I hope you know that.” The king noticed the loud squeal, his eyes widening with curiosity. Before he could investigate further though, he started to giggle along with his friend as he felt boops all over him. “Fohor the cutie! You should be booping yourself then!” Eret laughed softly before booping him a couple more times, and then rested a finger on his belly button, tracing around it with a smile.

”Mmhm!” Karl nodded and leaned into the touch, his face a soft shade of pink. This shade of pink got darker at what Eret was saying, now smiling brightly at him. “Thank you! You are way cuter though you big dork.” He leaned against the king and smiled even more at their giggles. “But you are extremely cute and a big sappy dork!” Karl booped Eret’s nose again and giggled nervously at the tracing. “E-Eheheret!”

“Oopsie! Sorry drama queen!” Karl giggled mischievously, reaching over to ruffle Punz’s hair. “It’s just a simple question Punz! Would you say the question was...pushing your buttons?” he said with a few pokes to the blonde’s navel, giggling at his joke.

"Something tells me you're not that sorry, nimrod." Punz rolled his eyes but let him mess up his hair, reaching to return the action gently. "Pft Karl that's a dumb joke eHEHE- nono dohon't!" He took a step back and curled forward a bit at the same time while his hands moved to block the spot. "That's not fair!"

“I am very sorry, nimrod.” he giggled more as the other ruffled his hair, then gasped dramatically. “Ok first off, it was a great joke thank you very much! Second it definitely is fair!” he pouted, acting like a grumpy child. “Mmphh...you are no fun.” he mumbled, leaning against the other and twiddling with his hoodie strings.

Punz huffed softly and moved his hands to rest on Karl's sides, squeezing them gently in short bursts. "I can't believe you're pouting after you attacked me! I think that deserves some retaliation right? Or wait..." The blond grinned and pulled the other a bit closer as he leaned down to mumble right in his ear. "I bet you wanted me to tickle you, right~? Aw Karl you didn't have to provoke! I'm happy to give you all the tickle-tickle-tickles you want~"

Karl hid his face in Punz’s chest, letting out tiny squeaks every time his sides were squeezed. “I didn’t attack youhou. Plus you’re being mean to mehe right now.” he huffed light-heartedly, feeling butterflies in his stomach almost instantly as the other whispered teasingly in his ear. “Don’t say t-that word you nimrod!” the smaller boy whined, looking at the blonde with wide eyes and smiling nervously. He shuffled a bit, too flustered to say anything else.

"In my defense you literally started it, so I don't want to hear any whining~" He chuckled softly as he switched to rapid squeezes up and down his sides. "Where are those cute giggles hiding? I know they're in here somewhere~" Punz cooed and couldn't help but grin down at him fondly as he darted his hands to scribble his ribs gently. "And why can't I say the word? Tickle tickle tickle~ See! It's so much fun to say~" His expression softened as he moved to gently nudge their noses together, laughing lightly along with him. "You're so cute~"

“But... mmphh.. okay, nimrod.” he agreed, mumbling the last part quietly, hoping he didn’t hear. He cuddled into Punz, getting more butterflies in his stomach until he jumped and burst into squeals and giggles. “EeHe! Puhuhunz!” he squirmed around, blushing a soft shade of pink at the teasing. “T-there aren’t ahahany cute gigglehes anywhehere!” Karl’s giggles lessened at his ribs, squeaking softly. “Puuuunz! I don’t lihihike that word!” he softly replied, blushing more and mumbling. “And I’m not cute!” Karl poked the blonde’s side, “You are the cute one bucko! Not me!” he booped his nose.

"Really? I think I found where a few are hiding~ Do you wanna know where gigglebug~?" His arms wrapped around the other gently, tapping his fingertips at the sides of his tummy. He couldn't help but lean down and nuzzle right up against his ear as he cooed softly. "I think they're all stuck in this cute, little tummy~ But don't worry! I'm happy to help them get out~" With that he gently kneeded his thumbs in to the sides of his stomach as he also pressed a soft raspberry to his neck. Punz did jump a bit at the unexpected poke only to lean back and level Karl with a playful glare. "Ohhh, am I? Am I the cute one Karl~? I think a certain lee needs to learn how to not provoke~" He shifted to dart his hands under his shirt and scribbled all of the other's stomach.

“Where are they?” he softly asked, tilting his head. Karl then squeaked, smiling nervously as his stomach started to quiver. “Punz no! There is nothing in my t-tUhuhummy! EehEHe!” he squeaked loudly, batting at his hands gently. “Meheheanie!” he tried to pout but couldn’t fight the big, goofy smile on his face. The brunet then looked at him with wide eyes, getting butterflies in his stomach once again as the other glared. “Y-you are cute though...hey! I didn’t provoke I was just sayihihing! Puhuhunz!” he squirmed a lot as the other scribbled around.

Punz hummed softly in fake contemplation as he decided to scoop Karl up, grinning at him deviously as he brought him closer. "Hm, are you sure? I might need a closer look~ You don't mind right?" He stuck his tongue out playfully before pushing his hoodie up, leaning down to pepper a few little raspberries on his tummy. "I think you liiiied angel~ I can see all kinds of giggles and butterflies in this adorable tum just trying to get out~" The mercenary pressed one right on his bellybutton then trailed a few around the spot. "Tickle tickle tickle cutie~ Look at how excited you are! Your tummy's shaking~"

Karl squeaked when he was picked up, looking at Punz with wide eyes. “Hi Punzie!” he smiled shyly, booping his nose. He then started shaking his head, “N-no you don’t need to check! I promise there is nothing! AhaHa! Quihihit it, nihihimrod!” The smaller boy got flustered at what Punz said, kicking his legs a bit as his navel was raspberried. “You’re the ohohone who’s lying! GaHAhah! N-noHOhot therehe!” Karl whined softly, his face heating up quickly. “Nohohot true! L-liahAHar.” he squeaked out, looking at his tummy and noticing it quivering quite a bit from the raspberries but sticking to his word.

Punz's heart melted at the sound of his laughter, pressing another raspberry to his bellybutton and then nibbling lightly. "Angel, you really shouldn't lie so much~ Especially when you're so ticklish! I mean the tickle monster might just have to punish you~" He paused for a moment and slowly lowered them both to the ground, settling carefully on Karl's hips. The blond moved to gather both his wrists in his hands and placed them above his head. "Keep this right here, ok~? I know you can do it!" With that he released his hold and pushed up Karl's hoodie, skittering his nails around lightly. "Poor blushy baby~ is your tummy just too ticklish~?"

Karl let out a squeal, arching his back slightly at the ticklish sensations all over his tummy and navel. “I-ihihi didn’t lie!” He shook his head for a moment, eyes wide. “N-nohoho not hihihim!” he giggled, waving his hands around a bit. The smaller boy then went quiet, waiting to see what Punz was doing. He let out a tiny giggle as he nodded, feeling very vulnerable in this position. “A-ah! Hehehehehey don’t cahahall me that! And y-yehehes it is.” he giggled, bouncing his legs slightly at the soft tracing.

Punz smiled at him gently and and lightened his touch, gliding his nails in random shapes all over his stomach. His head leaned down again to pepper tiny kisses all around his navel at the same time. "You're so cute, absolutely adorable~ Keeping your arms up like a good lee and giggling like that! Are you having fun~? Is this your favorite spot?" He cooed playfully and decided to be a bit firmer, vibrating his fingertips in to the sides of his stomach gently. "Or is there a better spot~? Cmon Karl just tell me where you wanna be tickled and I'll be extra nice~"

Karl bounced his legs more, looking up and smiling happily at Punz. He giggled at what he said, hiding his face slightly and nodding. “Mmhm! I lihihihike it heHEhehere!” the smaller boy threw his head back slightly and laughed, scrunching up his nose. Karl’s eyes flashed with excitement for a moment, “Buhuhut I haHahave too mahahany spots Puhuhunzie!”

"Awwwww~ Don't worry Karl! We've got all day to find every little spot! But for now let's focus on this pretty tummy, ok~?" He hummed and started to gently wiggle two fingers on either side of his bellybutton, leaning down to press raspberries to it lightly. "I mean I did just find the cutest button~ I think I might even be a giggle button!" Punz sat up and dipped one finger in his navel anf swirled it around gently. "What do you think gigglebug~? Does this little spot just make you as wiggly and excited~?"

“Ohohokay! G-gAHahAhaha!” he squealed loudly, his arms going down. “P-puhuHunz! Please don’t call it tHAHaHat!” Karl held onto the blonde’s arm, not moving it away. He wiggled around wildly, babbling like a baby. “Y-yehEhes it dOhOes!” The brunet smiled happily, kicking his legs.

"Hey! Kaaaaarl~ You put down your arms wiggleworm~" Punz pretended to be disappointed as he moved both hands to form claws on his tummy, not moving them just yet. "And I was trying to be so nice, now I gotta be mean~" He hummed softly and without further warning vibrated both hands in to his stomach. "Tickletickletickletickle~"

Karl’s eyes went wide, still giggling. “N-no I dihihidn’t! Wait nohoho Punzie!” The nervous, giddy butterflies returned, making the smaller boy wiggle around more. “Wait no don’t be meHEHEhean!” He arched his back, bouncing his legs. “I’m s-sOHohorry!” he looked up at the other, trying to do his best puppy eyes.

Punz glanced at him as his expression softened and he just gently squished the bit of pudge on his tummy. "Now, that look isn't fair gigglebug~ how can I be mean when you look so cute? Especially with this pretty soft tummy~" He mumbled and leaned down to nuzzle against the soft part, peppering tiny raspberries at random.

Karl continued his puppy eyes until he let out a high-pitched squeak at the squish, blushing softly. “It’s t-totally fair....oh my honk shush!” he softly replied, getting flustered and laughing softly as he raspberried and nuzzled his tummy. “It’s n-not sohoft or preHehetty you nihihimrod!”

"Kaaaarl~ Sweetheart~ Angel~ Don't lie again! I want to be nice to this cute, soft tummy~" Punz hummed against him and drifted his hands up to gently squeeze the pudge of his tummy. His lips curled in to a grin as he glanced up at him, pausing the tickling for a moment. "Yknow cutie I'm kinda hungry so I hope you don't mind if I...." The blond started to lightly nibble all over his tummy, paying special attention to his pudge and near his bellybutton. "Omnomnom~"

The brunet became even more flustered and hid behind his hands. “I’m nohoHot lyihihing Puhunz!” Karl let out a couple of squeaks as the other squished his tummy. He could feel Punz staring at him and moved his hands away, his cheeks bright pink and a wobbly smile on his face. “Hmm? Mind if you whahahat- aHa Punz!” he squeaked, giggling loudly.

Punz couldn't help but chuckle softly, pressing a soft raspberry to the pudge of his tummy between nibbles. Slowly he danced his fingertips up Karl's sides to wiggle and trace along his lowest ribs. "That's my name gigglebug, did you need something~? What happened to that confidence earlier~? I though you were gonna get me Karl, is this a part of that plan to wreck me~?" He hummed and sat up after a moment, rubbing gentle circles on his stomach to try and help get rid of any phantom tickles. "You really got me good cutie~"

Karl’s giggles turned into soft, squeaky laughter at the raspberry. He then wiggled around, letting out small titters as the other went up his sides. “Yohohou are meahahan.” he let out a small whine, hiding his blushing face in his hands. Slowly his giggles lessened, hiding in his hands more. “I can still wreck you, dummy.” he softly huffed.

"How're you gonna wreck me when you can't even look at me? It's gonna be hard to do with your hands too busy hiding those rosy cheeks~" Punz cooed and gently reached up to pull his hands away, leaning down until their noses bumped lightly together. "Hi there, now I can see that pretty smile~ It's pretty rude to try and cover up that cute face!" The blond grinned playfully as he took in how precious Karl was at the moment. "I'm very scared jacobs, you look like an absolutely ruthless ler right now~"

The smaller boy blushed more (if possible) and melted at the cooing. “Mmpph...shush Punzie.” he softly hummed, holding Punz’s hand gently and tracing his knuckles. “Hi nimrod...shuuush don’t say stuff like that!” he shyly smiled before scrunching his nose. “Yeah you should be scared you nimrod! Grrrr!” he clawed at Punz’s sides gently, grinning mischievously.

Punz melted at how soft the other was at the moment, giving his hand a tiny squeeze with a light hum. "I'm a nimrod huh? After how nice I've been, you're so rude~" The smile on his lips gave away that he didn't mind and his snickered softly at the nose scrunch. His lips parted to let out another tease that cut off with a squeak at the unexpected retaliation. "H-Hehey! Kaharl thahat's nohohot fahahair!"

“Yes you are! A very cute nimrod!” he grinned more, moving close to nuzzle noses with the other. Karl giggled softly at Punz, slowly moving his hands inward to claw at his tummy. “Awh come on- what’s not fair, hm?~” he cooed, his eyes wide and filled with excitement as he used one hand to poke and prod at Punz’s side. “Besides, I like hearing your squeaky giggles!”

"Nonohoho! Yoho- Yohohou're thehe cuhuhute ohohone!" Punz snorted and curled forward as much as he could, hiding his face up against Karl's neck to muffle his laugh. His face flushed a soft red as his giggle rose in volume at the switch of spots and one hand moved down to lightly bat at the one on his tummy. "KAHAhaharl! Nohohot thehehere yohohou're beheheing mehehean!"

Karl tilted his head, “You sure? I’m not the one who’s all giggly!~” he hummed, feeling the other’s face heat up against his neck and instantly knowing he was blushing. “Is this a good spot blushy baby?~ Is your tummy just a wiiiitle tickwish? Tickle tickle tickle Punzie~” he cooed in the same tone you’d use on a baby as he gently scribbled on the blonde’s tummy with both hands now. “Me? Being mean? What the actual honk- I’m never mean!” he faked a frown for a moment before smiling brightly and giggling.

Punz faked a whine as he moved his arms to wrap around him, not yet doing anything to stop his devious hands though. "Ihihi'm nohohot gihihiHIHIhiggly!" He mumbled through his soft laughter as the tips of his ears dusted pink from the teases. His fingers curled in to the back of Karl's hoodie and he buried his face deeper in to his neck. "Nononohoho! DohoHOHOhon't uhuhuse thahAHat tohohone.." His laugh was peppered with squeaks and bursts of louder giggles whenever an especially sensitive spot was hit. "Meheheanie!!"

“Not giggly? Yeah sorry but- I don’t believe that.” Karl giggled at how flustered the other seemed to get, tracing little hearts into his belly. “Why not, Punzie? Does it make the wittle baby all shy and flustered?~” he cooed softly as he tickled the sides of his stomach gently, grinning at how cute the blonde was being.

Punz practically melted at the light tickles even as his tummy sucked in a bit to escape the touches. "Kaha- Kahaharl.. stahap ihihit tihihickles!" His protests were clearly not serious as he slowly relaxed up against him, letting himself turn in to a puddle of sweet giggles. The blond played with the back of his hoodie as he shifted a bit to more comfortably rest his head on Karl's shoulder. "Dohohon't behehe ahaha buhuhully! Nihihimrod~"

“It tickles? I would have never had guessed!” Karl giggled again, booping Punz’s nose and cuddling him. The time traveler continued to trace and poke all over the blonde’s tummy. “Excuse me? Here I am cuddling you and giving you tickles, and you call me a nimrod! Rude!” he playfully huffed, scribbling all over his sides now. “Apologize now, Punzie!”

Punz was lost in his bubbly giggles for a moment as he curled his fingertips lightly in to Karl's hoodie, both the feeling and being help like this serving to make him relax. "Mm.. shuhudup.." He mumbled softly and let his eyes shut only to suddenly reopen them with a snort. His light squirms from earlier increased to wiggles as his laughter came out more frantically from before. "Nononohoho! Fohohor whahat? Tehe- tehehelling thehe truhuhuth?"

Karl held him close and cuddled him some more, rolling his eyes playfully. “Why should I? Besides, don’t act like you don’t like this, Punzie!~” The time traveler’s eyes lit up when he heard the snort, trailing his hands to the blonde’s lower back and then back to his sides. “The truth? You know what- I was saving this for the finale… but since you want to be a little knucklehead.” Karl pushed up Punz’s hoodie, slowly clawing at the bit of tummy pudge. “Do you like berries, Punzie?~”

Punz's laughter was filled with hiccups at the new spot, somehow being even more flustered than before as his hoodie was moved up. He shook his head and playfully batted at Karl's hands with no real force behind it. "Nononohoho Kahaharl! Thahat's nohohot fahahair! Nohoho beheherries!" The protests were punctuated with squeaks as he giggled against the brunet's neck. A few more tiny snorts pushed through as he twisted slightly from side to side.

“Awwh! You have very cute hiccups, nimrod.” Karl cooed softly and kneaded Punz’s back gently. “Hey! What the honk! Don’t hit my hands!” He playfully huffed and gave the blonde’s head a tiny flick. “Very rude!” The time traveler looked at Punz and did another playful huff. “It’s totally fair!” Karl protested back while moving to gently scribble all over the blonde’s sides. “It’ll only be a few raspberries! I promise!” The time traveler gave Punz a cheeky grin before doing raspberries all over his friend’s belly and sides.

"I dohohon't- kahaharl!" Punz's giggles shifted to softer ones as his back was targeted, relaxing a bit in to something more mellow for a few moments. The earned him a huff as he peeked out to stick his tongue out at him. He opened his mouth to protest against only to fall back in to hiccupy laughter, wiggling a bit from side to side. "Nohoho! Doho- dohoHOhon't!" His voice cracked as he tried to squirm away before throwing his head back, falling in to happy cackles. "NAHAHA! KAHAhaharl!"

”You definitely do! Stop being such a little knucklehead!” Karl giggled and booped Punz’s nose. The brunet gave the other a tiny huff back and flicked his head again. ”Wh- Oh my gosh!” Karl laughed at the blonde’s voice crack and smiled brightly at him. “It’ll only be like… two more I swear, Squeaky!” He kept his word and did a couple of raspberries, rubbing his tummy soothingly. “You okay bucko? Need anything?”

Punz curled in on himself as best he could, the last couple making him snort and shake his head. "NOHoho thahat- thahahat wahahas mehehean!" The blond still giggled quietly even as he began to relax and press closer to Karl's hand. Once he could speak more clearly he faked a pout and gently nudged him with his head. "Mmph.. next time I'm going to destroy you... nimrod~"

“Oh shush, Giggles. It wasn’t that mean.” Karl gave Punz’s head a little pat, smiling fondly. The time traveler let out a couple of nervous giggles, cuddling the blonde. “That won’t happen, knucklehead cause I can just do this.“ He gave the other’s sides a gentle squeeze, grinning mischievously.

Punz squeaked and let out a few bubbly giggles as he snuggled closer, hiding his smile against Karl's hoodie. "Nohoho- that's cheheating.." He whined playfully and moved his hands to give a light squeeze on both sides of the other's tummy. "I can do that too.. gigglebug..~"

Karl held the other close and grinned more. “No it’s not!” The time traveler huffed light-heartedly before letting out a loud squeak. “PuHuhunz!” One of his arms shot down immediately to cover his belly, the other playfully flicking the blonde’s forehead. “Rude!”

“Oopsie! Sorry drama queen!” Karl giggled mischievously, reaching over to ruffle Punz’s hair. “It’s just a simple question Punz! Would you say the question was...pushing your buttons?” he said with a few pokes to the blonde’s navel, giggling at his joke.

"Something tells me you're not that sorry, nimrod." Punz rolled his eyes but let him mess up his hair, reaching to return the action gently. "Pft Karl that's a dumb joke eHEHE- nono dohon't!" He took a step back and curled forward a bit at the same time while his hands moved to block the spot. "That's not fair!"

“I am very sorry, nimrod.” he giggled more as the other ruffled his hair, then gasped dramatically. “Ok first off, it was a great joke thank you very much! Second it definitely is fair!” he pouted, acting like a grumpy child. “Mmphh...you are no fun.” he mumbled, leaning against the other and twiddling with his hoodie strings.

Punz huffed softly and moved his hands to rest on Karl's sides, squeezing them gently in short bursts. "I can't believe you're pouting after you attacked me! I think that deserves some retaliation right? Or wait..." The blond grinned and pulled the other a bit closer as he leaned down to mumble right in his ear. "I bet you wanted me to tickle you, right~? Aw Karl you didn't have to provoke! I'm happy to give you all the tickle-tickle-tickles you want~"

Karl hid his face in Punz’s chest, letting out tiny squeaks every time his sides were squeezed. “I didn’t attack youhou. Plus you’re being mean to mehe right now.” he huffed light-heartedly, feeling butterflies in his stomach almost instantly as the other whispered teasingly in his ear. “Don’t say t-that word you nimrod!” the smaller boy whined, looking at the blonde with wide eyes and smiling nervously. He shuffled a bit, too flustered to say anything else.

"In my defense you literally started it, so I don't want to hear any whining~" He chuckled softly as he switched to rapid squeezes up and down his sides. "Where are those cute giggles hiding? I know they're in here somewhere~" Punz cooed and couldn't help but grin down at him fondly as he darted his hands to scribble his ribs gently. "And why can't I say the word? Tickle tickle tickle~ See! It's so much fun to say~" His expression softened as he moved to gently nudge their noses together, laughing lightly along with him. "You're so cute~"

“But... mmphh.. okay, nimrod.” he agreed, mumbling the last part quietly, hoping he didn’t hear. He cuddled into Punz, getting more butterflies in his stomach until he jumped and burst into squeals and giggles. “EeHe! Puhuhunz!” he squirmed around, blushing a soft shade of pink at the teasing. “T-there aren’t ahahany cute gigglehes anywhehere!” Karl’s giggles lessened at his ribs, squeaking softly. “Puuuunz! I don’t lihihike that word!” he softly replied, blushing more and mumbling. “And I’m not cute!” Karl poked the blonde’s side, “You are the cute one bucko! Not me!” he booped his nose.

"Really? I think I found where a few are hiding~ Do you wanna know where gigglebug~?" His arms wrapped around the other gently, tapping his fingertips at the sides of his tummy. He couldn't help but lean down and nuzzle right up against his ear as he cooed softly. "I think they're all stuck in this cute, little tummy~ But don't worry! I'm happy to help them get out~" With that he gently kneeded his thumbs in to the sides of his stomach as he also pressed a soft raspberry to his neck. Punz did jump a bit at the unexpected poke only to lean back and level Karl with a playful glare. "Ohhh, am I? Am I the cute one Karl~? I think a certain lee needs to learn how to not provoke~" He shifted to dart his hands under his shirt and scribbled all of the other's stomach.

“Where are they?” he softly asked, tilting his head. Karl then squeaked, smiling nervously as his stomach started to quiver. “Punz no! There is nothing in my t-tUhuhummy! EehEHe!” he squeaked loudly, batting at his hands gently. “Meheheanie!” he tried to pout but couldn’t fight the big, goofy smile on his face. The brunet then looked at him with wide eyes, getting butterflies in his stomach once again as the other glared. “Y-you are cute though...hey! I didn’t provoke I was just sayihihing! Puhuhunz!” he squirmed a lot as the other scribbled around.

Punz hummed softly in fake contemplation as he decided to scoop Karl up, grinning at him deviously as he brought him closer. "Hm, are you sure? I might need a closer look~ You don't mind right?" He stuck his tongue out playfully before pushing his hoodie up, leaning down to pepper a few little raspberries on his tummy. "I think you liiiied angel~ I can see all kinds of giggles and butterflies in this adorable tum just trying to get out~" The mercenary pressed one right on his bellybutton then trailed a few around the spot. "Tickle tickle tickle cutie~ Look at how excited you are! Your tummy's shaking~"

Karl squeaked when he was picked up, looking at Punz with wide eyes. “Hi Punzie!” he smiled shyly, booping his nose. He then started shaking his head, “N-no you don’t need to check! I promise there is nothing! AhaHa! Quihihit it, nihihimrod!” The smaller boy got flustered at what Punz said, kicking his legs a bit as his navel was raspberried. “You’re the ohohone who’s lying! GaHAhah! N-noHOhot therehe!” Karl whined softly, his face heating up quickly. “Nohohot true! L-liahAHar.” he squeaked out, looking at his tummy and noticing it quivering quite a bit from the raspberries but sticking to his word.

Punz's heart melted at the sound of his laughter, pressing another raspberry to his bellybutton and then nibbling lightly. "Angel, you really shouldn't lie so much~ Especially when you're so ticklish! I mean the tickle monster might just have to punish you~" He paused for a moment and slowly lowered them both to the ground, settling carefully on Karl's hips. The blond moved to gather both his wrists in his hands and placed them above his head. "Keep this right here, ok~? I know you can do it!" With that he released his hold and pushed up Karl's hoodie, skittering his nails around lightly. "Poor blushy baby~ is your tummy just too ticklish~?"

Karl let out a squeal, arching his back slightly at the ticklish sensations all over his tummy and navel. “I-ihihi didn’t lie!” He shook his head for a moment, eyes wide. “N-nohoho not hihihim!” he giggled, waving his hands around a bit. The smaller boy then went quiet, waiting to see what Punz was doing. He let out a tiny giggle as he nodded, feeling very vulnerable in this position. “A-ah! Hehehehehey don’t cahahall me that! And y-yehehes it is.” he giggled, bouncing his legs slightly at the soft tracing.

Punz smiled at him gently and and lightened his touch, gliding his nails in random shapes all over his stomach. His head leaned down again to pepper tiny kisses all around his navel at the same time. "You're so cute, absolutely adorable~ Keeping your arms up like a good lee and giggling like that! Are you having fun~? Is this your favorite spot?" He cooed playfully and decided to be a bit firmer, vibrating his fingertips in to the sides of his stomach gently. "Or is there a better spot~? Cmon Karl just tell me where you wanna be tickled and I'll be extra nice~"

Karl bounced his legs more, looking up and smiling happily at Punz. He giggled at what he said, hiding his face slightly and nodding. “Mmhm! I lihihihike it heHEhehere!” the smaller boy threw his head back slightly and laughed, scrunching up his nose. Karl’s eyes flashed with excitement for a moment, “Buhuhut I haHahave too mahahany spots Puhuhunzie!”

"Awwwww~ Don't worry Karl! We've got all day to find every little spot! But for now let's focus on this pretty tummy, ok~?" He hummed and started to gently wiggle two fingers on either side of his bellybutton, leaning down to press raspberries to it lightly. "I mean I did just find the cutest button~ I think I might even be a giggle button!" Punz sat up and dipped one finger in his navel anf swirled it around gently. "What do you think gigglebug~? Does this little spot just make you as wiggly and excited~?"

“Ohohokay! G-gAHahAhaha!” he squealed loudly, his arms going down. “P-puhuHunz! Please don’t call it tHAHaHat!” Karl held onto the blonde’s arm, not moving it away. He wiggled around wildly, babbling like a baby. “Y-yehEhes it dOhOes!” The brunet smiled happily, kicking his legs.

"Hey! Kaaaaarl~ You put down your arms wiggleworm~" Punz pretended to be disappointed as he moved both hands to form claws on his tummy, not moving them just yet. "And I was trying to be so nice, now I gotta be mean~" He hummed softly and without further warning vibrated both hands in to his stomach. "Tickletickletickletickle~"

Karl’s eyes went wide, still giggling. “N-no I dihihidn’t! Wait nohoho Punzie!” The nervous, giddy butterflies returned, making the smaller boy wiggle around more. “Wait no don’t be meHEHEhean!” He arched his back, bouncing his legs. “I’m s-sOHohorry!” he looked up at the other, trying to do his best puppy eyes.

Punz glanced at him as his expression softened and he just gently squished the bit of pudge on his tummy. "Now, that look isn't fair gigglebug~ how can I be mean when you look so cute? Especially with this pretty soft tummy~" He mumbled and leaned down to nuzzle against the soft part, peppering tiny raspberries at random.

Karl continued his puppy eyes until he let out a high-pitched squeak at the squish, blushing softly. “It’s t-totally fair....oh my honk shush!” he softly replied, getting flustered and laughing softly as he raspberried and nuzzled his tummy. “It’s n-not sohoft or preHehetty you nihihimrod!”

"Kaaaarl~ Sweetheart~ Angel~ Don't lie again! I want to be nice to this cute, soft tummy~" Punz hummed against him and drifted his hands up to gently squeeze the pudge of his tummy. His lips curled in to a grin as he glanced up at him, pausing the tickling for a moment. "Yknow cutie I'm kinda hungry so I hope you don't mind if I...." The blond started to lightly nibble all over his tummy, paying special attention to his pudge and near his bellybutton. "Omnomnom~"

The brunet became even more flustered and hid behind his hands. “I’m nohoHot lyihihing Puhunz!” Karl let out a couple of squeaks as the other squished his tummy. He could feel Punz staring at him and moved his hands away, his cheeks bright pink and a wobbly smile on his face. “Hmm? Mind if you whahahat- aHa Punz!” he squeaked, giggling loudly.

Punz couldn't help but chuckle softly, pressing a soft raspberry to the pudge of his tummy between nibbles. Slowly he danced his fingertips up Karl's sides to wiggle and trace along his lowest ribs. "That's my name gigglebug, did you need something~? What happened to that confidence earlier~? I though you were gonna get me Karl, is this a part of that plan to wreck me~?" He hummed and sat up after a moment, rubbing gentle circles on his stomach to try and help get rid of any phantom tickles. "You really got me good cutie~"

Karl’s giggles turned into soft, squeaky laughter at the raspberry. He then wiggled around, letting out small titters as the other went up his sides. “Yohohou are meahahan.” he let out a small whine, hiding his blushing face in his hands. Slowly his giggles lessened, hiding in his hands more. “I can still wreck you, dummy.” he softly huffed.

"How're you gonna wreck me when you can't even look at me? It's gonna be hard to do with your hands too busy hiding those rosy cheeks~" Punz cooed and gently reached up to pull his hands away, leaning down until their noses bumped lightly together. "Hi there, now I can see that pretty smile~ It's pretty rude to try and cover up that cute face!" The blond grinned playfully as he took in how precious Karl was at the moment. "I'm very scared jacobs, you look like an absolutely ruthless ler right now~"

The smaller boy blushed more (if possible) and melted at the cooing. “Mmpph...shush Punzie.” he softly hummed, holding Punz’s hand gently and tracing his knuckles. “Hi nimrod...shuuush don’t say stuff like that!” he shyly smiled before scrunching his nose. “Yeah you should be scared you nimrod! Grrrr!” he clawed at Punz’s sides gently, grinning mischievously.

Punz melted at how soft the other was at the moment, giving his hand a tiny squeeze with a light hum. "I'm a nimrod huh? After how nice I've been, you're so rude~" The smile on his lips gave away that he didn't mind and his snickered softly at the nose scrunch. His lips parted to let out another tease that cut off with a squeak at the unexpected retaliation. "H-Hehey! Kaharl thahat's nohohot fahahair!"

“Yes you are! A very cute nimrod!” he grinned more, moving close to nuzzle noses with the other. Karl giggled softly at Punz, slowly moving his hands inward to claw at his tummy. “Awh come on- what’s not fair, hm?~” he cooed, his eyes wide and filled with excitement as he used one hand to poke and prod at Punz’s side. “Besides, I like hearing your squeaky giggles!”

"Nonohoho! Yoho- Yohohou're thehe cuhuhute ohohone!" Punz snorted and curled forward as much as he could, hiding his face up against Karl's neck to muffle his laugh. His face flushed a soft red as his giggle rose in volume at the switch of spots and one hand moved down to lightly bat at the one on his tummy. "KAHAhaharl! Nohohot thehehere yohohou're beheheing mehehean!"

Karl tilted his head, “You sure? I’m not the one who’s all giggly!~” he hummed, feeling the other’s face heat up against his neck and instantly knowing he was blushing. “Is this a good spot blushy baby?~ Is your tummy just a wiiiitle tickwish? Tickle tickle tickle Punzie~” he cooed in the same tone you’d use on a baby as he gently scribbled on the blonde’s tummy with both hands now. “Me? Being mean? What the actual honk- I’m never mean!” he faked a frown for a moment before smiling brightly and giggling.

Punz faked a whine as he moved his arms to wrap around him, not yet doing anything to stop his devious hands though. "Ihihi'm nohohot gihihiHIHIhiggly!" He mumbled through his soft laughter as the tips of his ears dusted pink from the teases. His fingers curled in to the back of Karl's hoodie and he buried his face deeper in to his neck. "Nononohoho! DohoHOHOhon't uhuhuse thahAHat tohohone.." His laugh was peppered with squeaks and bursts of louder giggles whenever an especially sensitive spot was hit. "Meheheanie!!"

“Not giggly? Yeah sorry but- I don’t believe that.” Karl giggled at how flustered the other seemed to get, tracing little hearts into his belly. “Why not, Punzie? Does it make the wittle baby all shy and flustered?~” he cooed softly as he tickled the sides of his stomach gently, grinning at how cute the blonde was being.

Punz practically melted at the light tickles even as his tummy sucked in a bit to escape the touches. "Kaha- Kahaharl.. stahap ihihit tihihickles!" His protests were clearly not serious as he slowly relaxed up against him, letting himself turn in to a puddle of sweet giggles. The blond played with the back of his hoodie as he shifted a bit to more comfortably rest his head on Karl's shoulder. "Dohohon't behehe ahaha buhuhully! Nihihimrod~"

“It tickles? I would have never had guessed!” Karl giggled again, booping Punz’s nose and cuddling him. The time traveler continued to trace and poke all over the blonde’s tummy. “Excuse me? Here I am cuddling you and giving you tickles, and you call me a nimrod! Rude!” he playfully huffed, scribbling all over his sides now. “Apologize now, Punzie!”

Punz was lost in his bubbly giggles for a moment as he curled his fingertips lightly in to Karl's hoodie, both the feeling and being help like this serving to make him relax. "Mm.. shuhudup.." He mumbled softly and let his eyes shut only to suddenly reopen them with a snort. His light squirms from earlier increased to wiggles as his laughter came out more frantically from before. "Nononohoho! Fohohor whahat? Tehe- tehehelling thehe truhuhuth?"

Karl held him close and cuddled him some more, rolling his eyes playfully. “Why should I? Besides, don’t act like you don’t like this, Punzie!~” The time traveler’s eyes lit up when he heard the snort, trailing his hands to the blonde’s lower back and then back to his sides. “The truth? You know what- I was saving this for the finale… but since you want to be a little knucklehead.” Karl pushed up Punz’s hoodie, slowly clawing at the bit of tummy pudge. “Do you like berries, Punzie?~”

Punz's laughter was filled with hiccups at the new spot, somehow being even more flustered than before as his hoodie was moved up. He shook his head and playfully batted at Karl's hands with no real force behind it. "Nononohoho Kahaharl! Thahat's nohohot fahahair! Nohoho beheherries!" The protests were punctuated with squeaks as he giggled against the brunet's neck. A few more tiny snorts pushed through as he twisted slightly from side to side.

“Awwh! You have very cute hiccups, nimrod.” Karl cooed softly and kneaded Punz’s back gently. “Hey! What the honk! Don’t hit my hands!” He playfully huffed and gave the blonde’s head a tiny flick. “Very rude!” The time traveler looked at Punz and did another playful huff. “It’s totally fair!” Karl protested back while moving to gently scribble all over the blonde’s sides. “It’ll only be a few raspberries! I promise!” The time traveler gave Punz a cheeky grin before doing raspberries all over his friend’s belly and sides.

"I dohohon't- kahaharl!" Punz's giggles shifted to softer ones as his back was targeted, relaxing a bit in to something more mellow for a few moments. The earned him a huff as he peeked out to stick his tongue out at him. He opened his mouth to protest against only to fall back in to hiccupy laughter, wiggling a bit from side to side. "Nohoho! Doho- dohoHOhon't!" His voice cracked as he tried to squirm away before throwing his head back, falling in to happy cackles. "NAHAHA! KAHAhaharl!"

”You definitely do! Stop being such a little knucklehead!” Karl giggled and booped Punz’s nose. The brunet gave the other a tiny huff back and flicked his head again. ”Wh- Oh my gosh!” Karl laughed at the blonde’s voice crack and smiled brightly at him. “It’ll only be like… two more I swear, Squeaky!” He kept his word and did a couple of raspberries, rubbing his tummy soothingly. “You okay bucko? Need anything?”

Punz curled in on himself as best he could, the last couple making him snort and shake his head. "NOHoho thahat- thahahat wahahas mehehean!" The blond still giggled quietly even as he began to relax and press closer to Karl's hand. Once he could speak more clearly he faked a pout and gently nudged him with his head. "Mmph.. next time I'm going to destroy you... nimrod~"

“Oh shush, Giggles. It wasn’t that mean.” Karl gave Punz’s head a little pat, smiling fondly. The time traveler let out a couple of nervous giggles, cuddling the blonde. “That won’t happen, knucklehead cause I can just do this.“ He gave the other’s sides a gentle squeeze, grinning mischievously.

Karl was sorting his paintbrushes, humming softly when he heard the other. “Dream! Hi!” he waved his hand around rapidly, giggling a bit as the other leaned over him. “I’m good! I just finished painting and now I gotta wait for it to dry...which is boring. And you? How is the big spooooky Dream?” he teased, smiling brightly.

Karl smiled fondly at the other. “That’s good!” he replied, pouting a tiny bit. “You are always working on stuff thoughhh.” the smaller boy fidgeted with his hoodie sleeves then pointed at his painting. “I painted a flower! I think it came out okay.”

Karl looked up at Dream, smiling brightly. “Thank you!” he cuddled up against the other, frowning slightly. “That sucks...but hey! You are relaxing right now! That’s pretty honking cool.” the smaller boy nudged his side.

Karl smiled brightly, poking his side a couple of times. “Mmhm! Now..what do you want to do, Squeaky?” he teased, stopping the pokes to look at him. “I’m okay with anything!”

Karl looked at Dream with a goofy smile and ruffled his hair, his heart fluttering a bit at how cute the other was. “Hmm...” he started, thinking for a moment. “Well...what do you like to do for fun, Squeaky?” he hummed gently, booping his nose.

Dream’s blush started to bleed towards his ears as Karl continued to poke fun at him, scrunching up his shoulder shyly with a giggle. “I-I duhunno!” He squeaked, grinning shyly at his friend. “I-I dohon’t- I feheel kinda fuhunny.”

Karl cooed softly at his extremely blushy friend, a fond smile plastered on his face. “You don’t know? You suuuure about that Dreamie pie?” he then giggled with the other, tilting his head. “What do you mean?”

Dream ducked his head nervously, feeling his blush start to move down to his neck. “B-Buhutteherflihies,” he admitted, hugging his stomach shyly. “Ihin myhy stohomahach. Ihit’s ahahall tihinglyhy.”

Karl felt his heart flutter, giggling as the other hugged himself. “Awwwh! Gosh you are so cute!” he teasingly wiggled his fingers under Dream’s chin. “I think someone is a little lee!~”

Dream opened his mouth to say something but burst into startled, squeaky giggles as Karl’s fingers gently fluttered under his chin. He simply flushed more noticeably, scrunching up his shoulders. “I-Ihi’m- eek! Ihi’m nahahat lehehee!”

“You’re not lee? I mean....it’s veryyy obvious you are considering the blush and the giggles.” he teased, making claw hands and looking at Dream. “If you aren’t lee, which again, highly doubt- this shouldn’t fluster you!”

Karl grinned mischievously at his flustered friend, tilting his head to feign innocence. “Cut what out? What’s wrong?” he placed his clawed hands on Dream’s sides, getting impatient and wanting to tickle the speedrunner.

Dream noticeably flinched as Karl’s hands moved and he burst into nervous giggles, sparks of ticklish energy already starting to fizz across his skin. “St-Stohohop teheheasihihing mehehehe!” He squeaked out, squirming a little on the spot and trying to protect his sides with his elbows even though Karl wasn’t doing anything.

Karl stayed quiet and still, watching the other fondly as he giggled and squeaked. The time traveler then shrugged, grinning happily. “I don’t know what you mean, buddy.” he slowly moved his clawed hands up and down his sides, occasionally digging in.

Karl dug into the other’s sides, occasionally moving to his tummy and ribs. “I know you’re ticklish cutie!~” he cooed, placing a small platonic kiss to his nose then moved to place a raspberry under his chin. “I also know you like tickles, little lee!~”

Karl placed a few more raspberries in the same spot then stopped, looking at Dream with a fond smile. “Gosh you are so adorable! Do you like the tiggles on your tum tum wittle lee?~” he baby talked, kneading his belly gently and giggling at the other. “You didn’t deny it!~” the time traveler hummed softly, gently tapping the other’s head. “Can I see your cute face, Dreamie?~”

Karl squished the bit of pudge a few times then went back to kneading his sides and the pudge. “You have such a cute face Dreamie pie!~ It’s just so blushy and your smile is adorable!~” he cooed, booping his nose and giggling along with him before looking at Dream with a playfully stern look. “You keep saying that like if I don’t know-“ he then gasped playfully. “Wait- are you saying I’m dumb Dream?”

Karl was having fun tickling and teasing Dream, stopping once in a while so he could giggle happily and wave his hands around. “Your tummy is shaking how cute!” he smiled, deciding to coo about almost every little thing Dream did. “Hmmm...I don’t knoooow.” The time traveler trailed on the last word, slowly moving his wiggling fingers up his sides then down to his hips. “Doesn’t sound too convincing to me, bucko.”

Dream shook his head shyly, feeling his already-red face glow even brighter as he twitched and squirmed at the feeling of Karl’s fingers crawling down to his hips. “I-Ihihi prohomihihise!” He squeaked, digging his heels into the grass. “Ihi wohohouldnhn’t!”

Karl noticed how the speedrunner’s face got an even brighter red at his hips and grinned, staying at the spot. “Okay then Dreamie! If you say so!” The time traveler hummed softly, tracing little smiley faces into the other’s sensitive hips. “You having fun you little cutie pie?~”

Dream twitched at the light tracing, a permanently giddy grin plastered to his face as he giggled freely. He clenched his fists and pressed his hands over his eyes shyly, giving a tiny nod of confirmation at what Karl said. “Mmhmhm- eek! K-Kahahaharl!”

It was absolutely insane how cute Dream was and it made Karl coo and melt at him instantly. “Awhh my goodness! What a cutieee!~” he fondly cooed, holding the speedrunner in his arms like a baby. “That’s good that you’re having fun! I’m glad. Is there anything specific you want?” Karl asked softly, slowly trailing his hands up to gently trace hearts into the taller boy’s sides. “Gosh look at you~ having fun and giggling like that! Oh and that smile?” he booped his nose gently and grinned. “Absolutely adorable!”

Karl smiled fondly at the other, switching from tracing to light scribbles all over the other’s ticklish sides. “Excuuuuuse me? You are very adorable! Don’t lie to me, bucko!” he leaned down towards his neck and gently nibbled and nuzzled. “Tickle tickle tickle tickle!” he repeated over and over again, laughing softly at how flustered Dream was.

The time traveler continued his tickly attack, occasionally doing a raspberry or two on Dream’s neck. “Shut up? Well that’s kinda rude!” he took in a big breath and did a bigger raspberry, using his slightly poofy hair to make it tickle more.

Dream squealed at the raspberry, hiccups and squeaks punctuating his laughter as he squirmed lightly in Karl’s hold. “EEK! I-IHIHihi’m sahahAHARRYHY!” He whined, wrapping his arms around his stomach to protect himself. “KahahAHARL!”

Karl stopped his tickles to cuddle Dream, rubbing his back soothingly with one hand while the other held his hand. “It’s okay Dreamie! You alright? Need anything?” he softly talked, tracing little hearts in his palm.

Dream subconsciously snuggled into Karl’s gentle sign of affection, a shy, giggly smile still plastered across his face. “I-Ihi’m gohood,” he said softly, and he did mean it. “Juhust- juhust tihicklehes aha lohohot.”

Karl smiled brightly and snuggled Dream back, squeezing his hand gently. “I’m glad- and yeah I can tell, giggles.” he playfully teased, booping his nose gently. “I like your laugh, it’s really cute. Well- everything about you is cute, but still!” the time traveler softly cooed, feeling very lovey-dovey and tracing Dream’s knuckles.

Karl’s eyes widened at Dream’s smile, gently cupping his face. “You are so honking cute!” he giggled, hugging him close. “What do you mean? It’s super duper cute! Look I’ll even show you!” he gently tickled at his tummy for a moment then stopped, smiling brightly. “See? Cute!”

Karl’s heart melted instantly, gently tickling his sides. “What is it, wiggle worm?” he softly replied, laughing softly at how cute Dream was. “Oh my honk, you are such a cute lil baby! Oh and look!” he showed Dream his pink painted nails and grinned. “You’re as pink as my nails! How cute!”

Dream squeaked softly at the gentle tickling and he all but melted into it, shy chuckles bubbling from his lips as he giggled. “I-Ihi’m not cuhute!” He whined softly in response, giving Karl’s nails a quick look before the tease registered and he blushed brighter, returning to hiding his face in Karl’s shirt.

“You totally are cute!” Karl stopped the tickling and giggled softly at how Dream reacted to his tease. “Did you like that tease, cutie? I think it was pretty good!” he said cheerfully, hugging him close.

Dream’s only response was a muffled, trembling whine of embarrassment. He melted into Karl’s hug either way, though, a happy smile twitching at the corners of his mouth. “Sh-Shut uhup,” he giggled shyly, not meaning it at all. “It was mehean.”

“Awhhh! Don’t whine! Did I fluster the baby too much?” he gently pinched Dream’s cheek, a cheeky grin plastered on his face. Karl leaned against the speedrunner, rolling his eyes. “Oh please- you love my teases!”

“Everything is embarrassing to you!” he light-heartedly rolled his eyes, wrapping his arms around Dream and snuggling him. Karl looked at the other and booped his nose. “I think that means you do like them!”

Dream giggled shyly as Karl gently poked him, his pink face only getting pinker with embarrassment. “I-I-” he stumbled over his words, so flustered that he could barely speak. “I-I guess? I mehean- ihit makes my stohomach all tinglyhy- is thahat good?”

Karl tilted his head a bit, a small smile on his face. “I think so! Cause it means that my teases are working!” he smiled brightly, ruffling his hair.

Dream’s only response to that was a giggly whine, hiding again in Karl’s shirt as he scrunched up his shoulders at the tousling of his hair. He really did enjoy this time with Karl. Even though they weren’t as close as the speedrunner would have liked, he was still glad they could be this cuddly.

Karl smiled more, holding Dream close and playing with his hair. “This is nice…I like cuddling.” he softly hummed, enjoying the time him and Dream had been spending.

Dream leaned into Karl’s hands, a soft rumble in his chest as he smiled shyly. “I do too,” he murmured softly. “It’s nice.”

“My gosh you are so cute…what the honk.” Karl softly replied, snuggling into Dream.

“Mmhm. I’m not cuhute,” Dream hummed quietly, a shy smile quirking at his lips as he leaned into Karl gently. “That’s yohou.”

“You definitely are.” he softly replied, snuggling into him more. “I am not cute!” Karl blushed slightly, booping Dream’s cheek. “It’s you!”

Karl held him close, tracing circles into his back soothingly. “You tired, cutie?” he asked, looking down at him and smiling softly. “You can still be a big man and be extremely cute you know?”

Dream hummed softly in affirmation of Karl’s question, leaning into his friend’s gentle touch. “Shut up,” he mumbled lightheartedly. “Maybe a little.”

“Do you want to come to my place and nap? I don’t mind!” he smiled more at Dream and rolled his eyes playfully, pinching his cheek gently. “Stop being such a baby, Dreamie.”

Dream blushed slightly and shivered happily at Karl’s words. “I-If you don’t mind… I’d like that.”

“I don’t mind at all!” Karl scooped up Dream and stood up, grinning softly. The time traveler walked to his home, humming softly and looking down to check on the speedrunner in his arms.

Dream squeaked as he was lifted into Karl’s arms with ease, but he relaxed at once into his friend as he realized he was just being carried. The speedrunner leaned into Karl, really just hoping no one else would see this. He’d never live that down.

Karl kept walking, holding Dream tightly. The time traveler then glanced down at Dream and giggled softly. “You really are a cute little baby.” he smiled brightly, arriving at his house and walking inside. “Let me put you down and I’ll get you a blanket, okay?” Karl hummed softly as he walked into his room, plopping Dream on the bed.

“I’m not a baby,” Dream whined, slightly disappointed as Karl set him down. He hid a shy smile with his hand, nodding softly at Karl’s words. “I’ll be here.”

“You are definitely a baby! Boop!” he poked Dream’s side and giggled softly. Karl nodded back, bouncing around a bit. “I’ll be right back!” he then took off and got the speedrunner a nice fuzzy blanket, running back and jumping into the bed. “Here you go!” he cheered as he flopped down next to Dream, giggling and smiling.

Dream squeaked softly, then curled up on his side to wait for Karl. His friend’s return brought a shy smile to the speedrunner’s face, and he curled up in the blanket with a soft ‘thank you’. 

Karl made sure they both were covered and then snuggled into the speedrunner’s chest. “You’re welcome!” he looked up and smiled softly.

Karl let out a relaxed hum and melted into the other’s embrace. He glanced up at Dream and giggled softly. “You look so cute!” he cooed and poked his cheek gently.

Dream blushed at Karl’s words, hiding his face in the shorter’s hair. “I’m not cute, Karl,” he defended himself lightheartedly, voice slightly muffled.

Karl rolled his eyes and gave the other a tiny shrug. “Whatever you say, green blob.” he teased, cuddling him and giggling.

“Oopsie! Sorry drama queen!” Karl giggled mischievously, reaching over to ruffle Punz’s hair. “It’s just a simple question Punz! Would you say the question was...pushing your buttons?” he said with a few pokes to the blonde’s navel, giggling at his joke.

"Something tells me you're not that sorry, nimrod." Punz rolled his eyes but let him mess up his hair, reaching to return the action gently. "Pft Karl that's a dumb joke eHEHE- nono dohon't!" He took a step back and curled forward a bit at the same time while his hands moved to block the spot. "That's not fair!"

“I am very sorry, nimrod.” he giggled more as the other ruffled his hair, then gasped dramatically. “Ok first off, it was a great joke thank you very much! Second it definitely is fair!” he pouted, acting like a grumpy child. “Mmphh...you are no fun.” he mumbled, leaning against the other and twiddling with his hoodie strings.

Punz huffed softly and moved his hands to rest on Karl's sides, squeezing them gently in short bursts. "I can't believe you're pouting after you attacked me! I think that deserves some retaliation right? Or wait..." The blond grinned and pulled the other a bit closer as he leaned down to mumble right in his ear. "I bet you wanted me to tickle you, right~? Aw Karl you didn't have to provoke! I'm happy to give you all the tickle-tickle-tickles you want~"

Karl hid his face in Punz’s chest, letting out tiny squeaks every time his sides were squeezed. “I didn’t attack youhou. Plus you’re being mean to mehe right now.” he huffed light-heartedly, feeling butterflies in his stomach almost instantly as the other whispered teasingly in his ear. “Don’t say t-that word you nimrod!” the smaller boy whined, looking at the blonde with wide eyes and smiling nervously. He shuffled a bit, too flustered to say anything else.

"In my defense you literally started it, so I don't want to hear any whining~" He chuckled softly as he switched to rapid squeezes up and down his sides. "Where are those cute giggles hiding? I know they're in here somewhere~" Punz cooed and couldn't help but grin down at him fondly as he darted his hands to scribble his ribs gently. "And why can't I say the word? Tickle tickle tickle~ See! It's so much fun to say~" His expression softened as he moved to gently nudge their noses together, laughing lightly along with him. "You're so cute~"

“But... mmphh.. okay, nimrod.” he agreed, mumbling the last part quietly, hoping he didn’t hear. He cuddled into Punz, getting more butterflies in his stomach until he jumped and burst into squeals and giggles. “EeHe! Puhuhunz!” he squirmed around, blushing a soft shade of pink at the teasing. “T-there aren’t ahahany cute gigglehes anywhehere!” Karl’s giggles lessened at his ribs, squeaking softly. “Puuuunz! I don’t lihihike that word!” he softly replied, blushing more and mumbling. “And I’m not cute!” Karl poked the blonde’s side, “You are the cute one bucko! Not me!” he booped his nose.

"Really? I think I found where a few are hiding~ Do you wanna know where gigglebug~?" His arms wrapped around the other gently, tapping his fingertips at the sides of his tummy. He couldn't help but lean down and nuzzle right up against his ear as he cooed softly. "I think they're all stuck in this cute, little tummy~ But don't worry! I'm happy to help them get out~" With that he gently kneeded his thumbs in to the sides of his stomach as he also pressed a soft raspberry to his neck. Punz did jump a bit at the unexpected poke only to lean back and level Karl with a playful glare. "Ohhh, am I? Am I the cute one Karl~? I think a certain lee needs to learn how to not provoke~" He shifted to dart his hands under his shirt and scribbled all of the other's stomach.

“Where are they?” he softly asked, tilting his head. Karl then squeaked, smiling nervously as his stomach started to quiver. “Punz no! There is nothing in my t-tUhuhummy! EehEHe!” he squeaked loudly, batting at his hands gently. “Meheheanie!” he tried to pout but couldn’t fight the big, goofy smile on his face. The brunet then looked at him with wide eyes, getting butterflies in his stomach once again as the other glared. “Y-you are cute though...hey! I didn’t provoke I was just sayihihing! Puhuhunz!” he squirmed a lot as the other scribbled around.

Punz hummed softly in fake contemplation as he decided to scoop Karl up, grinning at him deviously as he brought him closer. "Hm, are you sure? I might need a closer look~ You don't mind right?" He stuck his tongue out playfully before pushing his hoodie up, leaning down to pepper a few little raspberries on his tummy. "I think you liiiied angel~ I can see all kinds of giggles and butterflies in this adorable tum just trying to get out~" The mercenary pressed one right on his bellybutton then trailed a few around the spot. "Tickle tickle tickle cutie~ Look at how excited you are! Your tummy's shaking~"

Karl squeaked when he was picked up, looking at Punz with wide eyes. “Hi Punzie!” he smiled shyly, booping his nose. He then started shaking his head, “N-no you don’t need to check! I promise there is nothing! AhaHa! Quihihit it, nihihimrod!” The smaller boy got flustered at what Punz said, kicking his legs a bit as his navel was raspberried. “You’re the ohohone who’s lying! GaHAhah! N-noHOhot therehe!” Karl whined softly, his face heating up quickly. “Nohohot true! L-liahAHar.” he squeaked out, looking at his tummy and noticing it quivering quite a bit from the raspberries but sticking to his word.

Punz's heart melted at the sound of his laughter, pressing another raspberry to his bellybutton and then nibbling lightly. "Angel, you really shouldn't lie so much~ Especially when you're so ticklish! I mean the tickle monster might just have to punish you~" He paused for a moment and slowly lowered them both to the ground, settling carefully on Karl's hips. The blond moved to gather both his wrists in his hands and placed them above his head. "Keep this right here, ok~? I know you can do it!" With that he released his hold and pushed up Karl's hoodie, skittering his nails around lightly. "Poor blushy baby~ is your tummy just too ticklish~?"

Karl let out a squeal, arching his back slightly at the ticklish sensations all over his tummy and navel. “I-ihihi didn’t lie!” He shook his head for a moment, eyes wide. “N-nohoho not hihihim!” he giggled, waving his hands around a bit. The smaller boy then went quiet, waiting to see what Punz was doing. He let out a tiny giggle as he nodded, feeling very vulnerable in this position. “A-ah! Hehehehehey don’t cahahall me that! And y-yehehes it is.” he giggled, bouncing his legs slightly at the soft tracing.

Punz smiled at him gently and and lightened his touch, gliding his nails in random shapes all over his stomach. His head leaned down again to pepper tiny kisses all around his navel at the same time. "You're so cute, absolutely adorable~ Keeping your arms up like a good lee and giggling like that! Are you having fun~? Is this your favorite spot?" He cooed playfully and decided to be a bit firmer, vibrating his fingertips in to the sides of his stomach gently. "Or is there a better spot~? Cmon Karl just tell me where you wanna be tickled and I'll be extra nice~"

Karl bounced his legs more, looking up and smiling happily at Punz. He giggled at what he said, hiding his face slightly and nodding. “Mmhm! I lihihihike it heHEhehere!” the smaller boy threw his head back slightly and laughed, scrunching up his nose. Karl’s eyes flashed with excitement for a moment, “Buhuhut I haHahave too mahahany spots Puhuhunzie!”

"Awwwww~ Don't worry Karl! We've got all day to find every little spot! But for now let's focus on this pretty tummy, ok~?" He hummed and started to gently wiggle two fingers on either side of his bellybutton, leaning down to press raspberries to it lightly. "I mean I did just find the cutest button~ I think I might even be a giggle button!" Punz sat up and dipped one finger in his navel anf swirled it around gently. "What do you think gigglebug~? Does this little spot just make you as wiggly and excited~?"

“Ohohokay! G-gAHahAhaha!” he squealed loudly, his arms going down. “P-puhuHunz! Please don’t call it tHAHaHat!” Karl held onto the blonde’s arm, not moving it away. He wiggled around wildly, babbling like a baby. “Y-yehEhes it dOhOes!” The brunet smiled happily, kicking his legs.

"Hey! Kaaaaarl~ You put down your arms wiggleworm~" Punz pretended to be disappointed as he moved both hands to form claws on his tummy, not moving them just yet. "And I was trying to be so nice, now I gotta be mean~" He hummed softly and without further warning vibrated both hands in to his stomach. "Tickletickletickletickle~"

Karl’s eyes went wide, still giggling. “N-no I dihihidn’t! Wait nohoho Punzie!” The nervous, giddy butterflies returned, making the smaller boy wiggle around more. “Wait no don’t be meHEHEhean!” He arched his back, bouncing his legs. “I’m s-sOHohorry!” he looked up at the other, trying to do his best puppy eyes.

Punz glanced at him as his expression softened and he just gently squished the bit of pudge on his tummy. "Now, that look isn't fair gigglebug~ how can I be mean when you look so cute? Especially with this pretty soft tummy~" He mumbled and leaned down to nuzzle against the soft part, peppering tiny raspberries at random.

Karl continued his puppy eyes until he let out a high-pitched squeak at the squish, blushing softly. “It’s t-totally fair....oh my honk shush!” he softly replied, getting flustered and laughing softly as he raspberried and nuzzled his tummy. “It’s n-not sohoft or preHehetty you nihihimrod!”

"Kaaaarl~ Sweetheart~ Angel~ Don't lie again! I want to be nice to this cute, soft tummy~" Punz hummed against him and drifted his hands up to gently squeeze the pudge of his tummy. His lips curled in to a grin as he glanced up at him, pausing the tickling for a moment. "Yknow cutie I'm kinda hungry so I hope you don't mind if I...." The blond started to lightly nibble all over his tummy, paying special attention to his pudge and near his bellybutton. "Omnomnom~"

The brunet became even more flustered and hid behind his hands. “I’m nohoHot lyihihing Puhunz!” Karl let out a couple of squeaks as the other squished his tummy. He could feel Punz staring at him and moved his hands away, his cheeks bright pink and a wobbly smile on his face. “Hmm? Mind if you whahahat- aHa Punz!” he squeaked, giggling loudly.

Punz couldn't help but chuckle softly, pressing a soft raspberry to the pudge of his tummy between nibbles. Slowly he danced his fingertips up Karl's sides to wiggle and trace along his lowest ribs. "That's my name gigglebug, did you need something~? What happened to that confidence earlier~? I though you were gonna get me Karl, is this a part of that plan to wreck me~?" He hummed and sat up after a moment, rubbing gentle circles on his stomach to try and help get rid of any phantom tickles. "You really got me good cutie~"

Karl’s giggles turned into soft, squeaky laughter at the raspberry. He then wiggled around, letting out small titters as the other went up his sides. “Yohohou are meahahan.” he let out a small whine, hiding his blushing face in his hands. Slowly his giggles lessened, hiding in his hands more. “I can still wreck you, dummy.” he softly huffed.

"How're you gonna wreck me when you can't even look at me? It's gonna be hard to do with your hands too busy hiding those rosy cheeks~" Punz cooed and gently reached up to pull his hands away, leaning down until their noses bumped lightly together. "Hi there, now I can see that pretty smile~ It's pretty rude to try and cover up that cute face!" The blond grinned playfully as he took in how precious Karl was at the moment. "I'm very scared jacobs, you look like an absolutely ruthless ler right now~"

The smaller boy blushed more (if possible) and melted at the cooing. “Mmpph...shush Punzie.” he softly hummed, holding Punz’s hand gently and tracing his knuckles. “Hi nimrod...shuuush don’t say stuff like that!” he shyly smiled before scrunching his nose. “Yeah you should be scared you nimrod! Grrrr!” he clawed at Punz’s sides gently, grinning mischievously.

Punz melted at how soft the other was at the moment, giving his hand a tiny squeeze with a light hum. "I'm a nimrod huh? After how nice I've been, you're so rude~" The smile on his lips gave away that he didn't mind and his snickered softly at the nose scrunch. His lips parted to let out another tease that cut off with a squeak at the unexpected retaliation. "H-Hehey! Kaharl thahat's nohohot fahahair!"

“Yes you are! A very cute nimrod!” he grinned more, moving close to nuzzle noses with the other. Karl giggled softly at Punz, slowly moving his hands inward to claw at his tummy. “Awh come on- what’s not fair, hm?~” he cooed, his eyes wide and filled with excitement as he used one hand to poke and prod at Punz’s side. “Besides, I like hearing your squeaky giggles!”

"Nonohoho! Yoho- Yohohou're thehe cuhuhute ohohone!" Punz snorted and curled forward as much as he could, hiding his face up against Karl's neck to muffle his laugh. His face flushed a soft red as his giggle rose in volume at the switch of spots and one hand moved down to lightly bat at the one on his tummy. "KAHAhaharl! Nohohot thehehere yohohou're beheheing mehehean!"

Karl tilted his head, “You sure? I’m not the one who’s all giggly!~” he hummed, feeling the other’s face heat up against his neck and instantly knowing he was blushing. “Is this a good spot blushy baby?~ Is your tummy just a wiiiitle tickwish? Tickle tickle tickle Punzie~” he cooed in the same tone you’d use on a baby as he gently scribbled on the blonde’s tummy with both hands now. “Me? Being mean? What the actual honk- I’m never mean!” he faked a frown for a moment before smiling brightly and giggling.

Punz faked a whine as he moved his arms to wrap around him, not yet doing anything to stop his devious hands though. "Ihihi'm nohohot gihihiHIHIhiggly!" He mumbled through his soft laughter as the tips of his ears dusted pink from the teases. His fingers curled in to the back of Karl's hoodie and he buried his face deeper in to his neck. "Nononohoho! DohoHOHOhon't uhuhuse thahAHat tohohone.." His laugh was peppered with squeaks and bursts of louder giggles whenever an especially sensitive spot was hit. "Meheheanie!!"

“Not giggly? Yeah sorry but- I don’t believe that.” Karl giggled at how flustered the other seemed to get, tracing little hearts into his belly. “Why not, Punzie? Does it make the wittle baby all shy and flustered?~” he cooed softly as he tickled the sides of his stomach gently, grinning at how cute the blonde was being.

Punz practically melted at the light tickles even as his tummy sucked in a bit to escape the touches. "Kaha- Kahaharl.. stahap ihihit tihihickles!" His protests were clearly not serious as he slowly relaxed up against him, letting himself turn in to a puddle of sweet giggles. The blond played with the back of his hoodie as he shifted a bit to more comfortably rest his head on Karl's shoulder. "Dohohon't behehe ahaha buhuhully! Nihihimrod~"

“It tickles? I would have never had guessed!” Karl giggled again, booping Punz’s nose and cuddling him. The time traveler continued to trace and poke all over the blonde’s tummy. “Excuse me? Here I am cuddling you and giving you tickles, and you call me a nimrod! Rude!” he playfully huffed, scribbling all over his sides now. “Apologize now, Punzie!”

Punz was lost in his bubbly giggles for a moment as he curled his fingertips lightly in to Karl's hoodie, both the feeling and being help like this serving to make him relax. "Mm.. shuhudup.." He mumbled softly and let his eyes shut only to suddenly reopen them with a snort. His light squirms from earlier increased to wiggles as his laughter came out more frantically from before. "Nononohoho! Fohohor whahat? Tehe- tehehelling thehe truhuhuth?"

Karl held him close and cuddled him some more, rolling his eyes playfully. “Why should I? Besides, don’t act like you don’t like this, Punzie!~” The time traveler’s eyes lit up when he heard the snort, trailing his hands to the blonde’s lower back and then back to his sides. “The truth? You know what- I was saving this for the finale… but since you want to be a little knucklehead.” Karl pushed up Punz’s hoodie, slowly clawing at the bit of tummy pudge. “Do you like berries, Punzie?~”

Punz's laughter was filled with hiccups at the new spot, somehow being even more flustered than before as his hoodie was moved up. He shook his head and playfully batted at Karl's hands with no real force behind it. "Nononohoho Kahaharl! Thahat's nohohot fahahair! Nohoho beheherries!" The protests were punctuated with squeaks as he giggled against the brunet's neck. A few more tiny snorts pushed through as he twisted slightly from side to side.

“Awwh! You have very cute hiccups, nimrod.” Karl cooed softly and kneaded Punz’s back gently. “Hey! What the honk! Don’t hit my hands!” He playfully huffed and gave the blonde’s head a tiny flick. “Very rude!” The time traveler looked at Punz and did another playful huff. “It’s totally fair!” Karl protested back while moving to gently scribble all over the blonde’s sides. “It’ll only be a few raspberries! I promise!” The time traveler gave Punz a cheeky grin before doing raspberries all over his friend’s belly and sides.

"I dohohon't- kahaharl!" Punz's giggles shifted to softer ones as his back was targeted, relaxing a bit in to something more mellow for a few moments. The earned him a huff as he peeked out to stick his tongue out at him. He opened his mouth to protest against only to fall back in to hiccupy laughter, wiggling a bit from side to side. "Nohoho! Doho- dohoHOhon't!" His voice cracked as he tried to squirm away before throwing his head back, falling in to happy cackles. "NAHAHA! KAHAhaharl!"

”You definitely do! Stop being such a little knucklehead!” Karl giggled and booped Punz’s nose. The brunet gave the other a tiny huff back and flicked his head again. ”Wh- Oh my gosh!” Karl laughed at the blonde’s voice crack and smiled brightly at him. “It’ll only be like… two more I swear, Squeaky!” He kept his word and did a couple of raspberries, rubbing his tummy soothingly. “You okay bucko? Need anything?”
