#ler!aster

"What in the hell?" Edmond stared at the absolute chaos in what had once been one of the mansion's most quiet, peaceful living rooms with a shocked expression, Olivine behind him bemused as well.

Eiden's head popped out of the undisturbed sea of plastic balls, a big grin stretching from cheek to cheek. "Edmond, Olivine! Join us!"

"Us?"

Aster and Morvay's heads also popped out of the balls, alongside Garu and Blade.

"Of course it's you five," Edmond pinched the bridge of his nose in frustration, while Olivine chuckled fondly behind him. "We have important business-"

"One of us, one of us," Eiden quietly cheered, the others joining in as they managed to move their way towards Edmond and Olivine. They looked for all the world like little sharks.

Morvay and Aster were the first to reach Edmond, and they dragged him kicking and screaming into the ball pit, Morvay at his arms and Aster grabbing his ankles. They worked hard to submerge the fighting knight in the balls, until only his hands and feet could be seen.

Eiden turned to Olivine, who was watching the proceedings with an amused smile. "Will we be forced to drag you in as well, your holiness?"

The priest chuckled, carefully stepping over the little barrier separating balls from the corridor. "I think I would prefer to enter of my own volition." He smiled brightly at Eiden, who couldn't help but laugh as well.

"Yeah, I think Fighty McFightPants figured that out."

"So how did you even-"

"AACK! RELEASE MEHEHE!" Edmond's shrill scream interrupted the two's conversation, and they whirled around to see that the knight had been attempting to leave the pit. Aster, however, had managed to grab him, manicured nails skittering all over a trapped foot that had lost a boot. Morvay, as usual, wasn't far behind the vampire, quickly grabbing Edmond under the arms and going to town. "NOHOHO!"

"Ooh, are we playing?" Blade perked up, pouncing on Garu. "Come on, Garu-Garu!"

As Blade and Garu started a (one-sided) tickle fight, balls flying everywhere from flailing arms and legs, Eiden turned to Olivine with a mischievous glint in his eyes.

"O~livine~," he sang quietly, and an involuntary smile tugged at the priests lips.

"Yeah?"

"I'm~ gonna~ tickle~ you~"

"Is that so?"

Eiden grinned, but then his mouth opened in shock as a green ball hit him gently in the nose. Olivine laughed as he waded carefully away, the noise practically lost in the noise surrounding him.

"Master!" A cheerful Aster slammed open the doors to Eiden's new room, the man in question blearily blinking his eyes while the vampire beelined for his bed.

He groaned, sinking into the pillows beneath him and trying to ignore the chatter coming from above him, but it was of no use. Aster pestered the man, chiding him about being lazy when they had work to do.

He was so much more fun the other night, when he and Morvay were...

Eiden shook his head a little, before rolling onto his back and looking at the canopy above him. Aster seemed to take this as he was waking up, and started talking about 'regulating the altars', whatever THAT meant (Eiden would have to get an explanation about that later), before nagging at him to get dressed and eat so they could head out.

God, if Eiden could just get another few minutes to clear his head and think straight (ha! straight) this would be much easier!

Although...

He eyed up the man next to him, who had long since clambered up onto the bed to shake him relentlessly. Quick as a bullet, his arm shot out and grabbed Aster's little body, rolling over so he was the little spoon and effectively trapped in Eiden's arms.

Aster yelped, before giggling lightly. "Ahh, master wants to cuddle? I'm afraid we don't have time today, but EEK!"

Aster squeaked as Eiden's fingers poked at his stomach, lightly dancing and prodding at all the usual places that are ticklish on people.

"Too tired," Eiden mumbled as Aster giggled madly, trying futilely to push his hands away. The playful grin could be heard in his voice though, even through layers of sleepiness. "Five more minutes..."

"B-but, Master!" The vampire squealed as Eiden's fingers dug fully into his tummy, bursting into shrieking laughter and kicking his legs helplessly. He could hear Eiden's sleepy chuckles from behind him, and when his hands started wandering, creeping down towards his thighs, he caved.

"Ok! Ok! Master can sleep more!!" He yelped, and Eiden smiled, immediately returning to just cuddling the vampire's smaller body.

"Thank you~" He sing-songed, burying his face into Aster's hair and closing his eyes. " 'ppreciate it..."

The vampire just sighed, settling in his arms and closing his eyes. Maybe just another 5 minutes wouldn't hurt...

🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷

🩷 To me Aster is a ler. Despite him being v small and v tickleable, he's too cocky and too powerful to be a full lee. He likes to have people giggling and writhing beneath him.

🩷 Has absolutely attacked Morvay in punishment, I mean come on.

🩷 I'd imagine he's not the most ticklish, but decently so. Probably have weak spots of thighs and knees, but he can hide it really well.

🩷 Has perfectly manicured nails for peak tickle-ability.

🩷 A demonic ler. Quite literally one of the most scary ones. He's very creative with tickle punishments and will require a safeword. He's a bit of a problem ngl so make sure you've got someone to keep him in line. He also teases in a very cute voice, baby-talking but his words are scathing so it's very condescending. Hit or miss with lees.
