MORE TK ART FROM ME???? FINALLY?????? REAL???!!!??!????!?!?!?!?!?

Please, do not romantic my platonic. As an aroace person the way I perceive and experience love is very different from heteronormativity. I just find it so disheartening to like read that oh this friend you talked about definitely has a crush on you because of how touchy they are. Like my years of friendship with this person is just boiled down to romantic interest and to me that's real sad. I get that here in the West we are less touchy with our friends but why should I have to conform to that? Why should you conform to that?

Hug the homies, kiss them goodnight do whatever feels right between the two of you. Relationships do not have to be labeled all the time. It's annoying and frustrating to have people assume that one friend is falling for the other simply because they're comfortable holding hands platonically. "Oh but friends don't do that-" shut the fuck up. You don't get to define what's deemed platonic/romantic in a relationship you're not even involved in. I feel sorry for everyone that feels like they can't do things that are normally seen as romantic with your friends. Like seriously you're all missing out on the depths platonic love has. And idk why the world wants to make it my problem for its own ignorance.

Fuck me ticklish guys are just-

So I ofc am hugging one of my friendos cause I got that cute aggression. But that jerk (/aff) said some snide comment and I was all like "that's it". And I hugged him from behind and wiggled my fingers under his arms.

Y'all. His fucking laugh. The sweetest shit I ever did hear. I think I lost consciousness for a couple seconds just being in awe of the sound.

He said, and very adorably at that, "noooo don't tickle me". You bet your ass I did in fact do the opposite. All the while he's trying to roll away (we're in chairs). So our other friends are in the same room, casually ignoring all of this and having their own convos. But this absolute trumpet screamed out "[other friend's name] come tickle him".

I beg your pardon!?!?!

He's doing this while cackling his pretty lil head off. So I just had to make it worse for trying to turn the tables. I'm just following the rules y'know. So I start gently kneading the area where the chest and armpit meet, which apparently was a good choice because he threw his head back and laughed even louder. I couldn't do it for long cause my other friend tazed me in the side and I had to run away (and subsequently chased and "tickled" under a table by both of them).

They went all out with the dub version of this scene 😅

Heey so I’ve been wanting to make one of these posts for a WHILE now, so here it is! I might refine this list later on as I make more posts, but we’ll see🧎‍♂️✨OH! This list is all SFW by the way!!!

•That little ⚡️jolt⚡️of anticipation , giddiness, and fear that you get when you realize there is no escape riiiight before someone tickles you

•How friend groups band together in little teams to subject each other to playful attacks and how no one ever stays on the same team or plays fair

•people’s fascination with watching another person cruuumble, even if they’re not directly involved in the tickling. Just from observation, even if someone has no involvement or particular inclination for tickling,

•the LAUGHTER. Oh my GOD, TRULY sounds like the sun-shiniest parts of someone’s soul spilling out of them. I love the titters, the little yells, the squeaks, the hysterical witch cackling, the belly laughs, the audible gasps or swallowed giggles, I could go ON.

•I love when people are more ticklish than they think they are, and they seem genuinely taken aback by their own reactions. Like you thought you outgrew this?!? Bb c’mere and 👹laugh👹

•How people get themselves so damn worked up with sheer anticipation that it works against them

~and any (playful!!) movement in their direction results in a giggle and an automatic covering of their torso/other ticklish spot, even if they aren’t touched

•Speaking of which, when someone GIVES AWAY their own worst spots by instinctively covering them

•The words/sentences that turn into giggles. A classic but an absolute essential. Bonus points if said words/sentences is the person in the middle of saying some variation of “I’m not ticklish”

•Someone that was just a tickle victim letting out the most ruthless, smug tickle monster

•T E A S I N G

• Being ganged up on by multiple people bc you were a little shit one too many times

•Poking people before they have the chance to get you back or vice versa, thus creating a ✨war✨

•When the laughter pitches up or otherwise gets noticeably more frantic and hysterical as their more ticklish spots are discovered

•Just the trope of someone crumbling the longer they’re ticked/teased

•Someone’s resolve gradually fraying the longer they’re tickled, and the goofier and more unabashedly giggly they become

•Someone getting a shoulder rub or a back massage and being too twitchy to handle it, and the person giving the massage cATCHING ONTO THIS AND NOT STOPPING

•Resting your hand on someone’s side or pulling their foot towards you and they start to giggle maniacally before you’ve even done anything (ADORABLE)

•General squirminess! :)

Also I adore tummies so much
