Laughust Day Two: Ridding a Ragdoll of Negativity
Summary: Pomni, Ribbit and Gangle decide to tickle Ragatha to rid her of negativity.
It was far from an average day at the circus. Ragatha was not in a good mood today. She has been in a sour mood lately, and no one knew why. Ribbit was the first to notice and went to inform Pomni and Gangle.
"Girls, Ragatha's been in a bad mood all day," she said, making Gangle think of a solution.
"Any ideas on how to cheer her up?" Pomni asked, shrugging.
"Oh! I know!" Gangle said, grinning. "As I've heard before, laughter is the best medicine, so..."
"That's a great idea, Gangle," Ribbit said, getting an idea. "And I know exactly how to get her to laugh!"
"And that is...?" Pomni said, a little confused.
"We tickle her!" Ribbit responded, taking out a feather.
Later that day, Ragatha was just minding her own business, when Gangle used her ribbons to restrain her arms, while Pomni and Ribbit approached her, smirking.
"Just what do you think you're doing?" Ragatha asked, unable to move.
"We're going to get rid of your negativity in the best way possible," said Ribbit, approaching her with the feather she had.
"And how exactly do you plan on doing that?" Ragatha said, raising an eyebrow, not knowing what she was in for.
"It's simple, really," said Pomni. "We're going to tickle that smile out of you!"
"That's not gonna- eep!" Ragatha started to protest, but was cut off when Ribbit started tickling her side with her feather. She tried to hold in her laughter. Pomni took a feather of her own and tickling her other side. Ragatha desperately tried not to laugh.
"Still not laughing, huh? I can fix that!" Ribbit said, moving her feather to Ragatha's stomach. "I know this is your most ticklish spot."
"HAHAHAHAHAHA! STAHAHAHAHAP IHIHIHIHIHIHIHIT!" Ragatha said, bursting into laughter.
"Aww, but you look happier already!" Gangle said, stroking her ribbons on Ragatha's neck, making her laugh more.
"EEEEEEE! GAHAHAHAHAHANGLE! NOHOHOHOHOT THEHEHEHERE! PLEHEHEHEHEHEASE STAHAHAHAHAHAP!" Ragatha protested through her laughter as Gangle's ribbons tickled her neck.
"Coochie coochie coo!" Ribbit said, stroking her feather on one side of Ragatha's stomach.
"Tickle, tickle, tickle!" Pomni said, stroking her feather on the other side.
"STAHAHAHAHAHAP IHIHIHIHIHIHIHIT! THIHIHIHIHIS ISN'T FUHUHUHUNNY!" Ragatha said through her laughter as the other girls continued to tickle her.
The girls picked up their tickling pace. Ribbit and Pomni tickled all over Ragatha's stomach with their feathers, while Gangle tickled her neck while also keeping a grip on her.
"Aww, you're adorable when you laugh!" Pomni said, continuing the assault.
"I mean, she's not wrong," Ribbit said, continuing to use her feather. Ragatha soon felt her earlier bad mood disappear.
"PLEHEHEHEHEHEHEASE MAHAHAHAHAKE IHIHIHIT STAHAHAHAHAHAP! HAHAHAHAVE MEHEHEHEHERCY!" Ragatha pleaded through her laughter as her stomach was shown no mercy by the tickly feathers.
After twenty minutes of nonstop tickling, feeling like hours for Ragatha, the girls stopped tickling her and Gangle released her. She hugged her midsection and started recovering.
"Feeling better, Ragatha?" Pomni asked, hoping Ragatha was in a better mood.
"Y- yes," Ragatha said, a lot happier.
That night, Ragatha decided to get some much-needed rest after being tickled to bits.
