um so i fic? i fic? get ready for HARDCORE TIGGLES jk im pissbaby
Rain knew he was doomed from the minute he heard the Joker charge. The rocket was loud as hell, and he wasn’t fast enough to dodge it- and he was pinned to the ground almost immediately, yelping from the impact and grabbing at his hat as it flew away.
Of course, Smiley grabbed it first. And plopped it on his own head. Rain pouted heavily and the clown laughed for a moment before picking him up by his wrists- seriously, his hands were fucking huge.
“Oh, come on. I deserve a reward for catching you after all that kiting.”
“Yeah, well, s’my hat!”
“Not anymore.”
But the joker paused, glancing around before cocking his head to the side then huffing. Rain could clearly see Ben, who was working at a cipher- and, thanks to the late Postman’s perk, he could see the dungeon right next to him. Damn Prisoner had everything planned out for his own win- which, fair, but sheesh.
“Problem is, I want a full win. Not a single escapee. So how about you tell me where your friend is?”
“Like hell!”
The clown snorted, and Rain squirmed harder as he was carried towards a chair- but rather than locking in his hands (which would have started the timer), he used the ropes to bind his arms above his head, leaving him with very little room to squirm. The cowboy huffed, already jerking at the bonds before a gasp left his lips as his sides were squeezed roughly.
“Go on, don’t make this hard on yourself. You’ve already lost. Just tell me where he is, we’ll send you both back, easy-peasy!”
“No- I won’t! Stihi- stoho- aha!”
Sadly, he was already breaking, as skilled fingers dug into his sides and thumbs buried themselves between ribs. The cowboy’s face was already lit up, and he kicked wildly and flailed from side to side, trying to break free on his own- but the ropes held strong, and he locked his jaw to stifle a sudden fit of giggles as Smiley buried a finger in each of his underarms- the jerk, really rubbing in the fact that he was trapped.
“Come on, cowboy, give it up! You’re way too ticklish to hold out for long, we both know it~!”
The singsongy tone that the words were spoken in only made it worse, and Rain bucked before finally cracking as his hips were squeezed over and over, his back arching to try and escape with little luck.
“No- naAAHA! ST- OHOHOHOP, I WOHON’T, I WON’T!”
“You will, you will. Just give it a minute, I’m sure. Ticklish little cowboys like you never keep secrets, as we’ve learned before..”
His face couldn’t get any redder, and he puffed his cheeks out before spewing out further laughter and gasping for breath as his ribs were finally targeted- and the clown had no mercy today, scribbling roughly at them and going up and down erratically enough that he could barely catch his breath.
“IAHAHA- NA- NOT- PLEHEHEHEEEEAAASE, PLEHEASE, DOHON- EYAAHA!”
“Kitchy kitchy kooo, little tickleboy! C’mon, all ya gotta do is tell me where he’s at… Maybe I’ll even let you go! Probably not.”
Rain howled with laughter, no longer able to form his pleas as tears pricked the corners of his eyes- unlike other lers, like Jack or Shizu, Smiley had no qualms absolutely exhausting him. The predicament began to set in as Ben finished his current cipher, leaving three remaining- and the clown didn’t even look up to see what direction it was in, too enthralled by his current lee’s hysterics to care.
“Actually, maybe I’ll just keep going.. While he finishes three ciphers all by himself. Y’know, since you’re such a tough boy that can hold out for that long. Not ticklish at all, are you? Oh, but wait, why are you crying? What’s the matter, cowboy?”
“T-T-T-TOOHOO- M- MAHA-!”
“Too much? Is it too much? That’s adorable, you think I’m gonna stop? Nope. Not till you tell me where he’s at.”
Tears began to fall finally as he shook with silent laughter, even his kicking slowing down and most of his struggles beginning to die off as he gave up- and he finally nodded his head frantically, hair falling in his face in his desperation. Smiley finally let up- for the most part, keeping one finger buried in his stomach that wiggled just enough to keep him giggling wildly- and gave a sinister chuckle.
“Oh, are you ready to fess up? Go on.”
“He’s- hehe’s over- by the d-d-door! The- aheh, stopstopstopplease!!”
“Not stopping. You’re coming with me as… Insurance.”
Rain gave a whine of protest as he was again picked up- this time, held under the arm of the clown with a hand still buried in his side that made him wriggle wildly and gasp for air as he attempted to break free. This was so cheating, but they both knew that the cowboy wasn’t gonna report it- he never did. Too lee.
They made their way to the door, Smiley grinning as he heard that telltale ringing- and sure enough, Ben was crouched behind the desk. It was easy for the clown to charge at, pinning the Prisoner to the floor the same way he’d done Rain earlier.
“There we go! Perfect. Now we can have some real fun!”
Rain’s stomach dropped as both survivors were picked up- he couldn’t be serious, he wouldn’t do this- absolutely he would. They were both deposited easily onto the nearby chair, one hand each bound into the restraints, the others both pulled up above the same as before, leaving them both pressed together. Rain was still catching his breath and snuck a glance at Ben- the Prisoner looked completely fried, absolutely taken off guard by the vulnerable position he was suddenly in (and, if Rain squinted, he’d almost swear he saw a blush).
Smiley, for his part, laced his fingers together before cracking them slowly and laughing softly to himself.
“You two.. Have been an absolute pain in my ass.”
The clown slowly leaned forward, one hand clasping on to opposite sides of the survivors- they instinctively pressed closer to each other, inhaling sharply.
“And this is well deserved.”
He started slow this time, digging his thumbs into both of their stomachs as his fingers kneaded at sides- Rain, who was already giggling away, broke back down into much deeper belly-laughs as he tried to squirm but mostly just pushed against Ben. To his credit, the Prisoner held fast, locking his jaw and rocking wildly- enough that the joker finally huffed and took both hands to his sides, scribbling wildly and aiming to break him just the same as Rain.
The Prisoner ended up hissing through his teeth and just scooting from side to side, both hands flapping wildly as he tried to break free. The cowboy was simply thankful for the moment to breathe, though he did crack a teary eye open to sneakily watch the explosion of color across Ben’s face as giggles bubbled up in his throat. It wasn’t helped when Rain opened his palm- the one with his arm tied to Ben’s- and caught his hand, lacing their fingers together and squeezing softly to try and reassure him- no, more than anything, it just made him more flustered and therefore prone to breaking down.
“Kitchy kitchy koo, Prisoner… C’mon, give us a grin! Where’s that smiiii~le, huh? Kitchy kitchy koo! Tickle tickle tickle!”
The teases proved too much for poor Ben- and, which a loud snort, he finally launched into a fit of laughter and cursing.
“Fuhu- fuck off, you damn- fucking clown!”
“Ah-ah-ah, don’t say such things! This is a family friendly production, you naughty thing!”
Ben’s laughter shot up an octave as one hand pushed part of his shirt up, nails scritching across his exposed stomach and the other hand wedging itself between the duo, managing to dig in to both underarms and making the cowboy nearly leap out of his skin at the return of the torment.
“No- no! Smi- aha- Smiley, let us go, c’mon! You’ve had yehe- yer fun, no fair!”
“Yes fair, actually. Shoulda thought about this before bonkin’ me with pallets!”
Both survivors whined and protested- but most of their words were slurred between laughter, and the clown snorted his amusement before glancing up at the timer.
Damn, only thirty seconds left. Better make it count.
