Marvin collected his magic items and placed them in his magician bag. When everything was in order, Marvin fixed the mask on his face and adjusted his cape. 

“Whatcha up to, magic man?” Someone said behind him. 

Marvin yelped and turned around, before smiling a bit. “Hi Jackie. Not much. What about you?” She as

“Got any good stories to tell me about saving people?” Marvin asked. 

Jackie chuckled. “Can’t you receive the same stories through the news?” Jackie asked. 

“Yeah, but you make them sound better.” Marvin admitted. “Plus, you’ve got a great talk show voice.” Marvin added. 

“Okay.” Jackie started narrating a story of how he saved a guy from falling to his death when his parachute didn’t open properly. After trying and failing to physically open the parachute by force, Jackie quickly took it upon himself to carry the man slowly down to the safety of the ground. After helping the guy calm down from the previous anxiety of almost dying, Jackie got the victim’s address from his friend so that he could send him something later in the day. 

“So what were you gonna send him?” Marvin asked. 

“I have no idea.” Jackie admitted. “Something along the lines of ‘I hope you’ve recovered well, and if life kicks you down, Call me up! I’m likely in town’, or something.” Jackie said. 

Marvin chuckled. “That’s some Dr. Seuss-level literature, right there.” he said with a smirk. Jackie chuckled. “Thank you, Marvin.” 

Marvin smiled and looked around for a bit. “What’s the biggest thing you’ve ever had to lift?” Marvin asked. 

Jackie thought for a moment. “Hmmmm…” He rubbed his chin. “Well other than these MASSIVE BICEPS…” Jackie joked, flexing his muscles jokingly. 

Marvin rolled his eyes. “But seriously…” Marvin walked a bit closer. “What’s the heaviest thing you’ve lifted?” Marvin asked. 

Jackie thought for a bit longer. “I did have to save someone from getting crushed by a huge boulder once.” Jackie admitted. 

Marvin widened his eyes. “Wait…really? How big was it?” He asked. 

“About 3,000 pounds.” Jackie admitted. “It was difficult, but I eventually put it down on an empty field nearby.” Jackie admitted. “There, I helped a bunch of people break it up into smaller chunks so they could move them better.” Jackie added. 

Marvin looked at Jackie with starry-eyes. “Woooow…” He mumbled. 

Jackie tilted his head. “What?” He asked. 

“You’re so strong and brave! How did you get so strong in the first place?” Marvin asked. 

Jackie chuckled. “With help from the POWER OF AWESOMENESS!” Jackie declared. 

“........No workouts? Dumbbells? Not even a weight or two?” Marvin asked. 

Jackie shrugged his shoulders. “I do that too. I gotta stay strong somehow.” Jackie admitted. 

Marvin smiled. “How much can you lift in weights?” Marvin asked. 

“Off adrenaline, I can lift 400 pounds in one go.” Jackie admitted. “But with the adrenaline rush…I can lift between 600-650 pounds.” Jackie added. 

“Holy-” Marvin quickly looked something up and dropped his jaw. “You can bench press about as much as Dwayne Johnson can in one go!” Marvin reacted. 

“How much does The Rock bench press?” Jackie asked. 

“400-500 pounds, according to an interview in 2021.” Marvin replied. 

“Damn…” Jackie muttered. “But he worked hard for those muscles his whole life. He deserves the ability to bench press that much.” Jackie added. 

“...Are you implying that you don’t deserve to be able to lift 400-600 pounds?” Marvin asked. 

“I don’t work as hard as Dwayne Johnson does…” Jackie admitted. “The reality is…I could be capable of lifting more than 650 pounds.” Jackie admitted. “But…I don’t work my way up past that because…I need time to work on my mental health too.” Jackie explained. 

“Isn’t working out supposed to be good for your mental health?” Marvin asked. 

“Yeah, it is…when you’re not pushing yourself way beyond your limits to the point of over-exertion.” Jackie added. “Pushing yourself is good…but over-exerting yourself makes your mental health worse.” Jackie added. “And frankly…I’m okay with how much I can lift right now. If I find something I can’t lift while on the job, then I’ll work at being able to make lifting that thing easier on the arms and back.” Jackie explained further. 

“Fair enough…” Marvin admitted. 

“Plus…I’m already afraid of over-exerting myself in front of thousands while doing my duties.” Jackie admitted. 

“Because evil people may see you have a weakness?” Marvin asked. 

“Mhm…” Jackie admitted. “Which…I do…But I don’t want other people finding out and taking advantage of it.” Jackie added. 

“Oh…” Marvin walked up and pulled out his deck of cards. He spread them out in a fan, and smiled. “Take a card.” Marvin told him. 

Jackie raised an eyebrow and chuckled. “Really? A magic trick right now?” Jackie asked. 

Marvin rolled his eyes with a smile. “Just do it.” He told him. 

Jackie sighed and took a card from the middle of the deck and looked at it. But the moment he looked at it…He widened his eyes and blushed a small bit. “U-Uh…” Jackie mumbled. 

“What?” Marvin asked. “Wait…” Marvin searched through his deck of cards quickly. “I didn’t leave the jokers in the deck again, did I?” Marvin muttered out loud. 

“Duhude, you’re evil.” Jackie said, showing him the card. 

Marvin leaned in slightly and looked at the card. Reading it, Marvin widened his eyes and chuckled. “Oh…Hahaha!” Marvin giggled. “I forgot I had that card in there!” Marvin admitted, taking it from Jackie. “Sorry…that’s embarrassing.” Marvin put the hand-written blank card into his pocket. 

Jackie looked down, blushing even more as he was unable to stop thinking about the card’s little question. It was such a simple question, but…it still felt overwhelmingly embarrassing to admit it. 

“What?” Marvin asked. “Something wrong?” He asked next. 

Marvin widened his eyes and shook his head. “No no no, sorry! I-...” Jackie bit his lip and attempted to hide his bashfulness. But alas…it was fruitless. 

“Oh! Is it the card?” Marvin asked. “You don’t need to answer it.” Marvin admitted. “Heck, I can just forget about it if you’d prefer.” Marvin added. 

The superhero looked down, biting his lip. “Yes.” Jackie replied softly. 

“Yes, you want to forget about it?” Marvin clarified. Jackie looked up with widened eyes. “No! Don’t forget about it.” Jackie told him. “I meant…Yes…” Jackie started. “-To…To the card’s question.” Jackie admitted. 

Marvin widened his eyes slightly and raised his eyebrows. Wait…Was THEE Jackieboy Man…who didn’t want anyone to know his weakness…telling him his weakness? Marvin slowly pulled out the card again, and read it again. 

[Are you ticklish?] 

Marvin looked at Jackie with a shy smile. “You…feel comfortable admitting that…to me?” Marvin asked. 

Jackie slouched over, rubbing his right arm with his left hand. “I…Think so…” Jackie admitted. 

Marvin smiled a bit more and put the card back into his pocket again. “Do you wanna leave your answer as that? Or…” Marvin raised his arms up and wiggled them a bit. “Can I…” Marvin muttered in a higher-pitched voice. 

Jackie couldn’t help the giddy giggles that left his mouth. “Yeheheah, sure.” He replied. “Goho ahead.” He replied. 

Marvin walked up and was about to plant his hands onto Jackie’s sides first…but then he paused. Marvin thought for a moment, and…brought his hands back. “Hold on.” He said. Marvin began to close the blinds and the curtains in the living room before shutting off his phone and placing it upside down so it couldn’t record anything from the front. “I assume you want me to make sure no one else sees this?” Marvin explained. 

Jackie couldn’t help the warm, fuzzy feeling that filled his body. Marvin was really taking the time to make sure no one else finds out about his one weakness. It was very thoughtful and considerate of him… 

“Okay.” Marvin turned on the main living room light and gently pushed Jackie onto the couch, before cracking his knuckles. “Let’s see what you’re made of.” Marvin said before placing his hands onto Jackie’s sides. “First off: Are your sides ticklish?” He asked, before squeezing them a bit. 

Jackie gasped and quickly brought his arms against his own upper chest, guffawing and pulling his legs up slightly. “GAHA! Hahahaha- Yehes! Ahaha lihihittle bihit.” Jackie admitted. 

Marvin’s smile began to show teeth. This was really happening…Marvin was actually tickling the world-famous Jackieboy Man right now! How could this be happening right now?! Marvin quickly let go of Jackie’s sides so he could skitter his fingers on the same spots very softly. “Do softer tickles get you-” 

Jackie squeaked and curled into a little ball, kicking his feet like a little kid short fits of proper laughter left his mouth. “HAHAhahahehehehe! Yehehehes, thehehehey dohoho!” Jackie admitted. “Ihihit’s wohorse ihif you-” “Ah ah ah~” Marvin stopped tickling and placed his index finger on Jackie’s lips. “Noooo spoilers. I wanna find all your ticklish spots on my own.” Marvin told him. 

Jackie smiled a bit more and removed Marvin’s finger from his lips. “Okay, okay.” He replied. “Just…please don’t make me wait in anticipation.” Jackie pleaded softly. 

“Okay!” Marvin replied right before tickling the lower ribs. “How’s this spot?” He asked rhetorically. 

Jackie threw his head back and let out a strong fit of cackly laughter. “BAHAHAHAhahahahaha! VEHEHERY TICKLIHIhihish!” Jackie replied. 

“I can see that!” Marvin reacted. “But what about the rest of your ribs?” Marvin asked as he moved his fingers very slowly up the man’s rib cage. 

Jackie’s laughter didn’t seem to go up in volume. But it certainly did go up in octaves! Every pair of tickled ribs seemed to make Jackie’s laughter go up a couple notes. And with the jumping laughter, came more and more wiggles from Jackie! In the span of 4 ribs on either side, Jackie had gone from tightened arms against his chest, to flapping his arms like a tense bird. 

It was around this time that Marvin had begun to see Jackie in a whole new light. Though seeing Jackie laugh at a joke or a reference was enjoyable enough, seeing Jackie cackle his head off while wriggling under him…was a whole new level of entertainment. And as of right now…Marvin was one of the only ones who was experiencing this side of Jackie! 

“OHOHO GOHOHOSH- WAHAITDON’TGOHIGHER-” Jackie gasped as Marvin’s fingers touched down against his armpits. Jackie threw his head back and let out a strong, almost deafening scream! “NAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA! AAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!” Jackie shouted with laughter as he squeezed his arms against his sides to stop the fingers in their tracks. 

“Ooooooh!” Marvin reacted. “Now THIS I gotta test out!” Marvin declared as he grabbed Jackie’s arm and placed it above his head. 

Marvin started with one finger just tracing up and down the hollow of the armpit, which made Jackie giggle manically and whine a little bit. “EEehehehehehehe! Ehehehevihihil!” Jackie yelled in a much higher-pitched voice. 

Marvin laughed at his reaction. “I still can’t believe no one else has found out about this yet!” Marvin reacted before starting to very lightly flutter his fingers in his exposed armpit. “And I’m guessing you want to keep it that way?” Marvin guessed. Jackie giggled and nodded his head. “Yehehehess! Thahahat wohohould be nihihihice.” the superhero replied. 

“Ey ey, captain! Marvin the Magnificent shall keep his lips zipped.” Marvin replied as he stopped tickling to salute the hero. 

Jackie had taken the break generously, breathing in and out somewhat heavily. Though the hero had a lot of endurance (It’s somewhat required in order to be a hero), Jackie wasn’t exactly used to tickling as a form of cardio. He was more used to heavier cardio like sprinting, flying, and martial arts. But tickling?! That was a completely foreign concept to his body. 

“Did you need a break?” Marvin asked. 

Jackie nodded his head and let out a deep breath. “Yeheah. Thanks.” He replied. “Ihi…I haven’t been tickled in years…Decades, actually.” Jackie admitted. 

Marvin widened his eyes. “Wait, really?!” Marvin asked. “Not even by friends?” He asked. 

Jackie shook his head. “The most relationships you ever make when you’re saving a city of people…is acquaintances.” Jackie admitted. “You and Chase are the closest friends I’ve ever had.” He told him. 

Marvin couldn’t help the bittersweet look that filled his face. He never realized that Jackie struggled so much to have deeper friendships. He knew that he could make friends easily, thanks to his job. But…develop them into something more? That was a whole new thing entirely. Marvin bit his lip as he played with his fingers for a moment. “Hey Jackie…” Marvin called softly. 

“Yeah?” Jackie replied. 

“Do…Do you want a hug?” Marvin asked. 

Jackie widened his eyes and slowly started to smile while he sat up. “I would love one!” He replied before hugging Marvin first. 

Marvin took a moment to process the shock of being hugged first, but quickly closed his eyes and hugged him back. Marvin also discovered that Jackie had a really strong, secure hug. It made his hug feel more comforting and caring…to the point where Marvin refused to let go when Jackie started to pull away the first time. But Jackie quickly smiled and closed his arms again, continuing the hug for Marvin’s sake. Even Jackie had to admit that the hug felt really comforting. 

Eventually, Marvin let go and squeezed Jackie’s shoulders a couple times. “Feeling better?” Marvin asked. 

Jackie chuckled. “Why are you asking me?! You were the one who wanted the hug.” Jackie mentioned. 

“True…but you looked like you needed it.” Marvin told him. 

“Yeah…I guess I did need it.” Jackie soon admitted. 

“Are you two gonna kiss now? Or…” Some voice nearby said to the boys. 

Marvin yelped and turned to look at the voice. “WHAT THE-?!”

Meanwhile Jackie had widened his eyes and looked over at the voice. “Who- Oh…Hi Chase.” Jackie said. 

“…Hi…” Chase replied awkwardly before taking an overly long sip of his tea. “…did I interrupt something?” Chase asked. 

Marvin blushed slightly before letting go of Jackie’s shoulders. “No.” Marvin replied. 

“Okay.” Chase walked to the kitchen and opened the fridge. 

Jackie looked at Chase for a moment, before smirking at Marvin. Marvin tilted his head. What was the superhero thinking? But right as Marvin was about to ask, Jackie pointed to the card deck in Marvin’s pocket. “Can I try the magic trick on you?” Jackie asked. 

Marvin smiled a bit and pulled out his cards, handing them to Jackie. “Have fun.” 

Jackie smirked and spread the cards out like a fan. “Pick a card, any card.” Jackie declared. 

Marvin smiled and took a card. But when he looked at it, he started tittering and covered his mouth. “Wohohow, not bad there, Red.” Marvin teased. 

Jackie smiled and put the cards away before pointing to Chase. “Revenge?” Jackie offered. 

Marvin smirked and nodded as he took the card, put them into the sleeve, and put them back into his pocket. “Revenge.” 

“JACKIEBOY MAN! TO THE RESCUE!” Jackie declared, flying around the house.

Jackie was flying around, casually minding his own business...but then something glitched...something turned green...Wait...the whole place was green! What the hell?!

“ĦĘħēħƐĦē! に-ƘįťčħỸ ƘǐƗćħƔ ķőØ!” Someone said, before tickling his belly.

“EEHEHEHEhehe!” Jackie laughed before everything turned back to normal. Now what the everloving hell was that all about?! Who tickled him?!

“Hey Marvin?” Jackie called. “Have you ever come across a guy who glitches a lot?” Jackie asked.

“No...No I haven’t. Why?” Marvin asked. “Because...I keep seeing a guy.”

“ŠŭřρŕĮșə!” Something said.

Jackie gasped as the world turned glitchy and green. “Ǐ ḥƏãř Łįĕṣ!” Someone started talking as he snuck up on Jackie.

“What the FUCK is- GAHAHAHA!” Jackie laughed. “WHO KEEPS TICKLING ME?!”

“Ǐț’ṣ ḾƐƎỄệẾeƎ” The being kept moving to newer places each time.

“WHO’S ME?!” Jackie asked.

The evil fingers of this scary beast started tickling Jackie’s sides. “NOHOHohohohoho!”

“Őħ ŁØƆĶ! Ā ƑŘĮƐƝɖ!” The being declared. “BEGONE ANTI!” Marvin yelled.

“Anti?!” Jackie asked.

“Yeah! That’s his name!” Marvin told him.

“ȚǃçĶĹƏ țǀčĶLë ŤĭĆķŁē!” The being spoke, picking up Jackie and flipping him upside down. “AAAH! MARVIN!”

“Ihihi...What?” Marvin asked, growing confused.

The evil being started holding Jackie up by the ankle, and started tickling his straight foot with his long, pristine nails.

“EEhehehe! HAhahahaha! AHA! STAhahahap!” Jackie laughed.

“I am so confused.” Marvin admitted.

“Peculier ĦØẅ ÞÊċůŁĪēř! ÅŘĕ Țħę ŤŏēŠ ƁÄĐ ṬǑő?” Anti asked curiously as he skittered and tickling his toes. “NOHOHO! BAHAHAHAHAHA! AAAHAHAHAHA NAHAHAHOHOHOHO!” Jack laughed his head off. “Wow...Those are some ticklish toes…” Marvin reacted.

“ƴǑű’ṛǝ ṅǒȚ ƑṛǝƎ ŸɛṬ, ḾǍŔƔǏƝ!” Anti teased, wrapping an arm around Marvin’s side and squeezing it.

“OHOHOHO NOYOUDON’T!” Marvin slapped his hand away. But this only stopped the tickling for a second or two, before starting right back up again.

“EEHEHEhehehe! NAHAhahahat MEHE TOHOHO!” Marvin laughed.

“ẄħÝ ŊŏŤ, ŠẀẽểȚ čāķĔs?” Anti asked.

“THIHIHIS IHIHIS EHEHEHEVIHIHIL!” Marvin argued.

“ĂŴŴŵŵ…” Anti muttered. “P̱̌ŎŐŔ Ṭḥǐṅģ…”

Anti’s hand let go of Jackie’s foot, and Jackie prepared himself to fall...Only, he didn’t fall! He actually just dangled by the string that attached to his ankle! How weird!

““ȚǃçĶĹƏ țǀčĶLë ŤĭĆķŁē țǀčĶLë ŤĭĆķŁē!” the evil Anti teased as he flipped Marvin upside down and tied a rope around him too. “Ļĕťš šēę ĦØẁ ŁòṄǧ ŷǑų ćÂn Ṣ̱ṬǍṈ̀᷆᷇Ḍ̱᷇ ɨȚ!”

Before the boys would even say ANTI WAIT!, One foot each from the men, were now being tickled by unbearably ticklish nails.

“NOOOOOHOHOHOHO! IHIHIHIT’S SOHOHO MEHEHEHEAN!” Jackie laughed.

“PLEHEHEHEASE STAHAHA- AAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!” Marvin’s laughter DOUBLED the moment his toes were even touched!

“ƘįťčħỸ ƘǐƗćħƔ ƘǐƗčħỸ ķØőØ!” Anti teased as he tickled both pairs of toes slowly but dangerously. “EEEEEEEEHEHE! QUIHIHIhit thahahat!” Jackie begged.

“YOHOHOU’LL NEHEHEVEHER BREHEHEAK MEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE!” Marvin laughed whole-heartedly.

“Ẃề’ŁĽ šĕ᷆ę̄̆.̂.̄.”

The evil Anti wrapped both of their feet together, and grabbed the dangling feet. Then, he gave the dangling feet ropes to hang on, and tied them all together. Now, he had 4 feet to play with!

“ǹǑẂ ƑŌŕ ḿƳ ǦŔǎǸḌ ŠőĻő:” Anti cracked his knuckles and started drumming his fingers on all 4 feet, playing them like a piano.

“EEHEHEHEHEHEHE! NAHAHAHAT BOHOHOHOHOTH!” Jackie cackled. The moment both of Marvin’s feet were touched, Marvin SNORTED! “BWAAAAAHAAAAHAHA!”

Then, Anti started playing BOTH feet at once! With both boys laughing their heads off, the laughter doubled in volume!

“HAHAHAHANDS OHOHOHOFF!” Jackie ordered.

“PLEHEHEHEHEASE! MEHEHEHERCYYYYYYYYY!”

Then the TOES were played! And GOOD LORD, DID THE TICKLES WORSEN!

“AAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA! NOHOHO NOOOHAHAHAHAHA!” Jackie laughed.

“EEEEHEHEHEHehehehehe!” Marvin giggled, wheezing in between his laughter.

“Ćõøčħƴ ĆợỡčħƔ Ɔởờ~” Anti teased.

“QUIHIHIHIT THEHEHEHE TEHEHEHEASIHIHING!” Marvin begged.

“TOHOHO MUHUHUHUCH! TOHOHO MUHUCH! COHOHOME OHOHOHON!” Jackie pleaded.

“IHIHIHI’M GOHOHOHONNA PEEEEEHEHEHEHE!” Marvin told them.

“P̱̌ŎŐŔ Ṭḥǐṅģ! ÎŤ’ş ťợợ þā᷆᷇́ḏ̌! Ỉƒ Ɣỗű ẂỄřƎńȚ sꞌ̀o̱᷇̃ ȚǏċĶŁı̂ȘḤ, Ỵộứ ẁỏừĹĐ’v̱ꞌ̱ê̱ ɓəəƝ ƒǀƝƎ!” Anti told him.

“SHUHUHUT UHUHUHUP!”

“LEHEHEHET UHUHUS GOHOHOHOHOHO!” Marvin ordered.

“Ŋőŵ ŴḥỸ ỖĦ ŴḥỸ ŵỖỤŁɗ ẃə ɗǒ țḥǎȚ?”

“BEHEHECAHAHAUSE YOHOHOU LOHOHOVE UHUHUS?” Jackie asked.

“ỮƝçëřŤāİŃ Ǐ Šə̂̆ɛ̱…”

“PLEHEHEHEHEHEASE HEHEHEHELP UHUHUHUS!” Marvin begged.

“Ỉ’ḿ ấƒŕǎǐƊ ǹǒ ǑǸƏ ɔấṅ ḤəäŘ ŷǑư~” Anti said evilly.

“HEY!”

Suddenly, someone ran up to Anti and the boys, and threw a cross at Anti. “BEGONE THOT!”

“ŊŌ!” Anti spat back.

Anti grabbed Chase with some strings and pulled Chase over to him. Chase yelped as he was pulled, and brought into Anti’s territory. “ĐŎń’Ť ŤĔŁŁ ḿǝ ẄḥǍț ṬǑ ɗǒ, ƆĦāšĕŷ~” Anti teased.

“You’re not gonna break me.” Chase warned.

Ỉ’ḿ ŊơŤ?” Anti asked.

“Nope.” Chase spat.

“ŵƐ’ĹĻ ṣɛ̱᷆ɛ̱…” Anti teased.

Chase showed slight fear as his hands and fingers were wrapped in string as thick, black nails suddenly grew from his fingers.

“ĐŌ Ḿể ằ ƑɄṼợŔ, P̱̂᷇̀ỄẰŠǎǹȚ!” Anti ordered, before testing the finger puppets on Chase:

They worked perfectly for his endeavors.

“ṬịɔĶŁĕ ŤħĖḾ Ƒǒŕ Ḿệ!” Anti started wiggling his fingers, effecting Chase’s fingers. He lowered them to Jackie and Marvin’s feet, and snapped his fingers.

Chase widened his eyes as a sentient being took over his hands, and started tickling the feet without his permission.

“Oh my god! You can DO THAT?!” Chase reacted, watching as his own hands tickled every square inch of Jackie and Marvin’s feet.

ỹỄểśśśššş~” Anti replied slyly.

“EEEHEHEHEHEHEHE! CHAHAHAHASE STAHAHAHAHAP!” Marvin begged.

“IHIHIHIT’S SOHOHOHO BAHAHAHAHAHAD!” Jack begged.

“I-I can’t control it! I’m sorry, guys!” Chase reacted.

“ẰẄẅẃ, ĐōŊ’Ť ƒƐƎĻ Śŏ ƁĀđ…” Anti whined dramatically. “Ṭḥəɣ’ŕə ɛṅjỡỷịṅģ Ĩț!”

Anti kept up Chase’s tickling of the feet, and flew down to where the bellies were. “ɲƠŴ ṢƆŘĖĂḾ!”

Anti started tickling both their belly buttons. And sure enough, both of their belly buttons were HELLA ticklish!

Jackie wheezed, and SCREAMED as the corners of the belly button were scritchy-scratched.

Marvin pushed the nail away from his belly desperately with no success, utterly dying of cackles and laughter. “AAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! IHIHIHI’M GOHOHOHOHONNA DIHIHIHIEHEHEHEHE!”

“Anti, this is too much! They’re gonna pass out!” Chase warned.

“ĦĘĦĔĔĦęħěħěħěěě! ǦǑǑĐ!” Anti shouted.

Chase tried his best to try and gain control of his hands. But it was just impossible! It was like working against a spell that had already been cast! He just couldn’t!

“I hope you know how much tickles you’re gonna get the moment we catch you!” Chase warned.

Anti’s smile dropped as he froze in place. “Ẅħāț?”

“When we catch you, we’re gonna tickle you double the amount of time that you tickled Jackie and Marvin!” Chase told him.

Marvin and Jackie were breathing heavily after all the tickling. Though they were still in giggle mode thanks to Chase’s controlled hands on their feet.

“ȚĦǎŤ’ș ǏƑ ƴōů ċāťɔħ ḿə…”

“NOW!” Chase yelled.

Jackie, amidst his giggles, grabbed onto Anti’s wrist and held onto it tight.

“ǸỠ!” Anti shouted.

Marvin grabbed onto his middle while he was upside down, and blew a MASSIVE raspberry onto the green belly.

“ĢĀĂĄĦĂĦĄĦĀĦĄĦĀ!” Anti laughed, squealing and struggling to push Marvin away.

Chase tried to control his hands again, but found that the spell was still put onto his hands! His hands would not stop tickling the feet that were in front of him!

“Ihihi...I can’t stop my hands, so you guys are gonna have to bear with me.” Chase told him.

“Ihihit’s fihihine. Juhuhust ahahaha lihihihittle tihihicklyhyhyhy.” Jackie told him.

“Yeheheah!” Marvin replied, before blowing another raspberry onto his belly. Though this time, the raspberry was a little more shaky than the first one. This was because Marvin was still giggling while he was tickling Anti.

“İĦİĦİĦİĦİĦİ’ŁŁ ĢĖĦĖĦĖĦĘĦĘŤ ŸŌĦŎĦŎĦŎĦŎŪ ƑŎĦŎĦŎĦŎŔ ȚĦįĦįĦįĦįŞ!” Anti laughed.

“If yohohohou’re ahahalready lahahaughing thihihis muhuhuch, juhuhust wahahait tihihill Ihihi dohoho thihihihis:”

Marvin licked his pinky, made a pop sound with his mouth, and spun the pinky finger into Anti’s belly button.

And HOLY SHIT DID ANTI SCREAM! His scream could break glass!

And so: Anti was caught and tickled for a lot longer than Jackie and Marvin were: just as Chase promised! Jackie and Marvin were feared by Anti for a long while after that.

Jackie got out of his room with his mask on, and looked around the room. Everyone was dressed in costume. From Chase in an Iron Man costume, and Henrik in a Sherlock Holmes costume, to even Shawn in a Charlie Chaplin costume!

“Love the costumes, everyone!” Jackie reacted.

“No way! Spiderman?!” Chase reacted.

“Yup! In the flesh.” Jackie joked.

Chase looked at himself and smiled. “Guess who’s gonna be your Dad this Halloween?” Chase teased.

Jackie widened his eyes. “Oh my god I didn’t think of that!”

“Gimme a big hug there, buddy!” Chase declared, pulling him into a big hug.

Jamie came out with his costume on: A James Bond costume with a gun and hair flipped back, and everything! And to top it off: The James bond theme playing on Chase’s phone!

“YEEEAAAAH! Lookin’ good, James Bond! Ma Man!” Chase declared.

Jamie immediately cowered away and looked away with embarrassment. He wasn’t used to being called out like this.

“Now now, it’s alright. Come on, Jamie. It’s gonna be okay.” Chase told him.

Jamie bit his lip and looked at him. ‘But...I don’t talk.’ Jamie muttered.

“I know. But James Bond is about the action...not about the words.” Chase told him. “Plus, you rock the costume better than I could ever do.” Chase told him.

Jamie smiled a little and started to gain some courage again.

Jamie looked around and suddenly gasped and covered his mouth with a huge grin on his face. There, standing in the corner, was Shawn Flynn dressed as THEE CHARLIE CHAPLIN! Jamie sprinted to Shawn and started clapping his hands excitedly. ‘Charlie Chaplin!’ He placed his index finger and middle finger on his upper lip, and slid it down fancily down to the bottom right of himself.

“Ihihis...that Charlie Chaplin in sign language?” Shawn asked.

Jamie nodded and pointed to himself. ‘I LOVE your costume!’ Jamie signed. He placed his hands on his cheeks like Kevin did in Home alone, with a huge smile on his face. He looked like he could scream out of pure excitement!

“Wehehell, I got Jamie’s approval!” Shawn told him.

“I love it too! It’s so accurate!” Chase reacted.

“Outdated guy, but fun costume!” Jackie told him.

Marvin smiled as he presented his costume: A rendition of David Copperfield.

Jackie clapped his hands and hugged Marvin. “I love it!” Jackie told him.

“I do too! It suits you greatly!” Henrik told him.

“Thank you!” Marvin replied.

Lastly, there was Henrik in his Sherlock Holmes costume.

“A German Sherlock Holmes! Never thought I’d see the day.” Chase reacted.

“Very vitzig, Chase.” Henrik joked.

“Why thank you!” Chase replied.

Jamie started doing the Sherlock Holmes signature hand gesture. ‘I suspect...murder.’ Jamie signed.

“Fantastic!” Henrik ran to Jamie and started shaking him. “VHERE IS ZHE MURDER?!”

Chase, Marvin and Jackie all bursted out laughing. Shawn giggled and shook his head at the boy's shenanigans.

“Alright! Who wants drinks?”

[20 minutes later]

Jackie, Marvin, Shawn and Chase were playing video games while quite drunk.

“Damn you Peach! Get out of the way! Bowzer coming through!” Chase shouted.

“Hey! Fick dich!” Henrik shouted back.

“Fuck you back!” Chase fought.

“fick dich zurück- YEEEEEEHEHEEEESSSS!” Henrik shouted, cheering and throwing his arms up in the air. “BEAT ZHAT, BRODY!” Henrik yelled.

“Aw, come on!” Chase fought. “That was SO unfair!” Chase whined.

“Dein Arsch is unfair!” Henrik declared, speaking in both german and english.

“My ass is unfair now?” Chase reacted. “Alright. Talk to the hands!”

Chase leaned his hands closer to Henrik and started tickling his belly. “A tickletickletickletickletickle!”

Henrik screeched and bursted out laughing. “SCHEHEHEHEHEIßEHE!” Henrik laughed.

“Shit is right, my main man!” Chase reacted.

“STAHAHAHAP ZHAHAHAHAT!” Henrik ordered.

“Sorry Sherlock, but you need to be distracted for a while! And what a better way than tickling!” Chase declared.

“THIHIHIHIS IHIHIS STUHUHUHUPIHIHIHID!”

“Stupid?! THIS IS! SPARTAAAA!” Chase shouted before bursting out laughing on his own.

Henrik pushed Chase off him and started tickling him back. “Revenge is mine, Dear Vatson!”

“NOHOHOHOHAHAHAHAHAH!” Chase laughed. “HAHAHAHANDS OHOHOHOHOFF!”

“No vay!” Henrik replied.

“YEHEHEHES WAHAHAHAY!” Chase shouted back.

“Again, no vay.”

“HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! EHEHEHEHEVIHIHIHIL!” Chase shouted.

“Now now Lestrade…” Henrik mimicked. He changed his voice to a british voice. “This is no time for dilly dallying.”

Chase widened his eyes. Hold up! Did Henrik just speak in a BRITISH ACCENT?!

“Whoa!” Marvin reacted. “I got all the powers!”

“There should be a freezing power for Mario Kart.” Jackie told him.

“Yeah, I agree!” Marvin added.

“GUHUHUHUYS! HEHEHEHELP MEHEHEHEHE!” Chase shouted.

“Having fun there, Chase?” Jackie asked.

Jamie walked up to Chase’s feet and casually sat onto them.

Uh oh!

“NO! NOHOHO JAHAHAMIHIHIHIE NOHOHOHO!” Chase begged.

“Jamie! Get zhe toes!” Henrik encouraged.

Jamie nodded and started going for the toes the moment the socks were off.

“YYAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!” Chase SCREEEECHED super loudly and completely lost it.

“Wow!” Henrik reacted. “Vhat a ticklish man zhis is!” Henrik reacted.

“NOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO!” Chase begged.

“Yes!” Henrik declared.

“NO!” Chase shouted.

‘Yes!’ Jamie signed in his face.

“NO!” Someone yelled. “Dammit!”

“WOOO HOOOO!” Marvin yelled out. “GET GOT, BOOOOIII!” Marvin shouted.

“Shut up!” Jackie fought. “I can fight you with my ULTIMATE SEXY MUSCLES!”

“Oh really now, Spidey sensey?” Marvin teased.

“You bet!” Jackie smiled.

Suddenly, a pair of hands tickled up his ribs.

“EEEEEEHEHEHEHEH!” Jackie shrieked, losing himself in his laughter.

The person that had tickled him...was Shawn. “Sexy, ticklish ribs!” Shawn teased.

“Ohoho, you wanna play it THAT way, now huh?” Jackie asked.

Shawn widened his eyes and quickly gulped as he realized how screwed he was.

“Nohow wahahait...Lehehet’s tahahahalk ahabout thihihis!” Shawn begged, putting his arms up.

“Oh, I’ll help you alright.” Jackie pulled Shawn’s feet closer to him and started tickling them. “Tickle tickle tickle tickle tickle!” Jackie teased.

“EEEHehehehehehehe! Hahahahahahahahaha!” Shawn laughed.

“Kitchy kitchy koo! Look at dese tickwish toesies!” Jackie teased.

“Nahahahahat thehehe tohohohohoes!” Shawn begged.

“BUt YES the toes! The toesie-woesies are the best part!” Jackie teased.

“Ahahahahare nahahahat!” Shawn laughed.

“Are tooo!” Jackie replied.

Meanwhile, Chase was still being tickled beyond his years by Henrik and Jamie all at once.

Jamie was writing the word ‘tickle’ on his foot as he tickled, while Henrik was teasing him nonestop.

“Awwww! Poor Chase! Stuck in a ticklish situvation! Vhatever vill he do?!” Henrik teased.

“IHIHIHIHI’LL GEHEHEHEHEHEHEHET YOHOHOHOHOHOHOU!” Chase fought.

“Oooooh! You’ll get us?! And vhen vill zhat be?” Henrik asked.

“NOHOHOW!” Chase reached up and tried tickling his armpits. But his armpits were just not ticklish.

“Hahaha...Good try, mein Freund.” Henrik said with a smile.

“........Uh oh…” Chase mumbled.

Jackieboy Man was hiding up on the top of the roof, waiting around for his first victim to approach. He waited for a little bit, and soon came across Marvin. A smile quickly grew onto his face as he rubbed his hands evilly like a villain. He lowered himself down through his floating ability, and grabbed his shoulders. “BAH!”

Marvin shrieked and jumped about 5 feet in the air. Not only that, but he was caught on the way down by a pair of hands around his waist! Marvin looked down, touched the hands, and turned to see Jackie. “Oh...What the hell?!” Marvin pushed at Jackie’s face.

But Jackie smirked at this and faked dropping him. This led Marvin to just about have another heart attack. “WoO-AAH! DON’TDROPME!” Marvin begged.

“Wasn’t counting on it!” Jackie replied.

“Good. Now what do you want?” Marvin asked, letting his legs dangle.

“To capture you and hold you like this:” Jackie wrapped his legs around Marvin’s thighs and wrapped his arms around his chest. Marvin yelped and protested at first, not fully understanding what he was doing. But once he felt like he was in a weird spider hold, Marvin calmed down a little. “Weird execution, but surprisingly nice…” Marvin admitted.

“Oh yeah, I also wanna tickle ya.” Jackie said as he started tickling the magic man on the ribs with his fingers.

“WAAAAhahahahahaha! Jahahahackihihie nohohohoho!” Marvin protested.

“Look! I’m spinning you around like a spider would in her web!” Jackie reenacted this move by spinning Marvin and tickling his middle and back while he spun him.

Marvin squealed and wiggled around, laughing at both Jackie’s weirdness and at the ticklishness of the man’s fingers.

“And:” Jackie wrapped both his arms and legs around him again, and hugged him snugly from behind while he leaned in. “Snack time!” Jackie moved his mouth to Marvin’s neck and started ‘nibbling’ on his neck while making nomming sounds.

“AAAHAHAHAHAHA! THAHAHAT’S NAHAHAT HOHOHOHOW SPIHIHIDEHEHERS WOHOHOHORK!” Marvin shot back.

“And how would you know?!” Jackie asked, pausing before going back to tickling him with his nibbling.

“BLOOHOHOHOD! THEHEY SUHUHUCK THEHEHE BLOHOHOHOOD!” Marvin told him.

“Well we all know I’m not a vampire…” Jackie mentioned. “But I can pickpocket others pretty well.”

Jackie reached into Marvin’s shirt and grabbed onto the magic wand that was in his hand. “Now does this cap-” A bunch of large feathers came poofing out of the top of the magic wand! “!...Well there’s my answer!” Jackie fluffed up the feathers and lifted Marvin’s shirt up. With one arm wrapped around his lower ribs and holding the shirt up to expose his belly, Jackie started tickling his belly with the feathers. “Kitchy kitchy kitchy koo!” Jackie teased.

“EEEEEEK! JAHAHahahahahack! Stahahahahap thahahahat! Yohohou’re beheheheing weheheheheird!” Marvin laughed.

“And now for the ultimate boss fight!” Jackie pushed Marvin horizontally up against the roof with one forearm pushed against the thighs and the other against his chest. “3...2-” Jackie started counting.

“NOHOHO! DON’T YOU EVEN-”

“1! PPPPPPFFFFFFBBBBBBBBFFFPPPBBFF!”

“YAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!” Marvin was pounding his fists against the roof and laughing his whole heart out like a child. It was so weird because the roof felt exactly like the hard floor! Only, it wasn’t hardwood or carpet.

Jackie lifted his head up, breathed in and-

“PPPPPFFFFBBBBBPBBBPBPPPBBB”

“STAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! AAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHEHEHEHE!” Marvin shouted, pounding his fist further into the roof.

“Better not punch a hole in the roof~”

“RIHIHIGHT BAHAHACK AHAHAT YOHOHOU!” Marvin shot back, trying to remind him of who actually had the super strength here.

“But I can control it! You kinda can’t right now.” Jackie retorted.

“AHAHAHAND WHOHOHO’S FAHAHAULT IHIHIS THAHAHAT?” Marvin mentioned.

“Why, yours! You’re the one who ended up in my web of tickles!” Jackie joked.

“WHAHAT?! BUHUHUHUT-”

“Shhhhhh…” Jackie put his index finger on Marvin’s mouth. “I’m right.” He ordered softly.

Marvin rolled his eyes, but went along with it. It didn’t take much long for Jackie to stop tickling him and for the super man to place him onto the couch.

Next, Jackie flew around the house in search of his next victim. He had an idea of who it should be, but he had to find him first. He checked the office first: Nope. He checked the clinic room. That was empty too. Then, Jackie checked the kitchen:

And there he was! The doctor was reading a book, finishing up some food and working on some coffee. Jackie smirked as he rubbed his gloved hands together before using his powers on the coffee cup. Whenever Henrik would reach for his coffee, Jackie would drag it away from the hand with his powers. Henrik looked over at his coffee, and reached for it while he watched. Quickly, the coffee cup moved away from him.

Henrik hummed in confusion and reached further out. But the coffee cup moved away further! Finally, Henrik reached out really quickly and managed to get both his hands on the cup. But when he pulled on it...it didn’t move. He tried to remove his hand and found that it was stuck to the cup as well!

“Hmm...Vell scheiẞe!” Henrik reacted.

To make Henrik even more stuck, Chase grabbed out some gorilla glue and put it onto the chair, to get Henrik’s pants stuck to the chair. Since it was that fast-acting glue, it made Henrik’s pants get stuck to the chair in a matter of seconds.

With that determined and Henrik completely stuck, Jackie let his presence known with an evil giggle and squeezed the man’s hips.

“AAEEEEP! WHO ZERE?!” Henrik jumped.

“Iiiiiiit’s JACKIEBOY MAN! And you’ve better get comfortable because YOU’VE just been trapped!” Jackie teased.

“Lass mich jetzt gehen!” Henrik ordered. “I have un appointment vizh a patient at vone! And If I am late-”

Jackie squeezed the left hip. “Sorry bud.”

“aAAH GEHEZ- Uh oh! NEIN!” Henrik quickly tried to wiggle himself out of there, but found that the stool was stuck to his butt. “Zhe hell?! Did you sooper glue mein things?!” Henrik asked.

“Yyyou betcha! Even your thick booty is glued!” Jackie teased as he poked his lower back.

Henrik growled and muttered the following words through his teeth:” “Du kleiner Scheißer.” Before wiggling around and giggling.

Jackie had started squeezing both of Henrik’s hips at a speed of multiple times a second. Henrik was laughing with his head lowered, and kicking his feet to try and cope with the amount of tickles he was getting. “Jahahahahahack hahahahahaha! Du bihihist lähähächerlihihihich!” Henrik told him.

Jackie laughed. “Sorry, Schneep. I don’t speak Einstein.” Jackie told him. “If I did though, that would be cool!”

Henrik shook his head and tried to pull on his sticky hands. Then, Jackie stopped and unglued his hands from the mug. Henrik muttered a german insult to him before sipping his half-spilt coffee.

“Hey now...I would’ve let you go. But now:” Jackie picked Henrik up by the forearms. “You’re coming with me, Dr. Beleídigung.” Jackie declared.

The super boy threw Henrik up, flipped onto his back, and caught his victim. With the doctor’s back against his chest, Jackie took off flying straight upside down, and right out the door.

Out in the wide open space, Jackie flew up above the houses and opened his arms high! However, he did not let go of Henrik...for Henrik’s torso was safe in the grip of Jackie’s strong superhero legs. “WEEEEEEEHEHEHEHE!”

“JACKIE! PUT ME DOWN ON ZHE GROUND NOW-”

“No way! I didn’t jut fly up here to show you the view!” Jackie started skittering his fingers onto Henrik’s hips and lower ribs. “I came here to tickle the bejesus out of you!”

“BAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! JAHACKIHIHIHIE DU HURENSOHOHOHAHAHAHN!” Henrik shouted to him.

“Whaaaat? Whatever could have the german man have meant?! I wonder~” Jackie joked, sticking his tongue out between his teeth. “I know what it means! It means “I want more tickle tickle tickles!” Jackie joked.

Henrik tried to push Jackie’s hands off him. But this only made Jackie hold onto him further! He didn’t really blame him though...He was actually thankful Jackie was saving him from falling to his ultimate doom to head splatter.

But still...He would prefer a better way of being held.

“Hey Henrik, you doing alright up there?” Jackie asked. “Or do you need to be tickle hugged instead~” Jackie asked.

“NEHEHEIN, ZHIHIHIS IHIHIS FIHIHINE-” Jackie ignored his answer and stopped tickling him. Then, Jackie flipped Henrik around onto his chest rather than the back, and hugged him.

Henrik blinked in surprise and...hugged him back.

“Z-Zhank you.” Henrik replied.

“Hugs for the overworked doctor!” Jackie declared with a little squeeze.

Henrik giggled and took the squeeze like a champ. “Zhahahanks- Hehehehehey!” Henrik giggled as his back was squeezed and tickled.

“Good god man! You need to stretch your back out once in a while! There’s so many knots!” Jackie reacted. “I can literally count them!” Jackie poked at a knot on his shoulder blade. “One…Two...three four...five...six seven, eight…” Jackie moved to the next shoulder bone. “Nine, ten eleven twelve- Holy shit!” Jackie reacted.

Henrik was giggling and snorting into Jackie’s shoulder as the tight muscles were prodded and massaged. There’s a reason he never got massages…

“Wow...I can see why you don’t see a massage therapist...You’re way too ticklish for it! Is your spine even tickli-”

Henrik snorted and guffawed! “EEEEEeeeeehehehehehehe!” Henrik squealed as he shoved his face into Jackie’s shoulder to muffle the laughter.

“Awwwww! This is so cute! What about…” Jackie started tickling the back ribs, on the lower back where the kidneys were located, and even on the back hips. Henrik snorted and kicked his feet at the back ribs, squeaked at the squishy back sides, and cackled the moment his back hips were poked, let alone dug into.

“Wow! All this tightness is making you ticklish! I feel at least 10 knots on your back sides, a couple knots in your back rib area, and a single knot riiiiight…” Jackie poked in the spot beside the back hip divot, “-There!”

Henrik just about died the moment that knot was drilled into. He wheezed, snorted, and laughed with muffled snorts mixed in!

Why were the snorts muffled? Well that was easy! Because Henrik was covering his mouth with his hands like a little child!

“You know...for a doctor, you’re pretty childish!” Jackie reacted.

“Mahahaybe...Ihadtogrowuptoofast…” Henrik muttered.

“Wait what?” Jackie asked.

“I needed to grow up too quickly...and I needed to develop a mature look to be a doctor…” Henrik told him. “It’s a Vórurteil…” Henrik muttered.

“A...what?” Jackie asked.

“Prejudice! It’s a prejudice!” Henrik shot back.

“Come...Keep laughing. You sound less like a grump when you’re laughing.” Jackie decided.

“Ihihi -BWAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! AHAHAND YOHOHOU SOHOHOUND NIHIHICEHEHER VHEHEHEN YOHOHOU’RE TIHICKLIHIHIHING MEHEHEHE!” Henrik yelled back.

“Oh do I? Well you just earned yourself some more tickles, my man!” Jackie declared.

Henrik winded up being tickled for 10 more minutes by Jackie before being flown back home safe and sound. Furthermore, Jackie got Henrik in on the tickle monster idea and both agreed to go for the most quietest ego of them all:

No, not literally...It’s not Jameson Jackson.

The boys chose Shawn Flynn!

Shawn had been working on a little black and white automobile based off the same car from the Bendy series. He had also been listening to some old music and was actually singing some of the lyrics off by heart! It was really nice to hear the man sing, let alone talk. And...he actually had a nice singing voice too!

The two boys waited patiently at the door for Shawn to finish the car, and then barged in the moment the artist’s hand was off the brush.

“Greetings, my creative fellow!” Henrik greeted.

Shawn jumped about 3 feet up off his chair and landed in the same wooden seat. “HOLY MOTHER OF- Guys! Honestly...Could you knock next time?!”

Not unless you want a surprise!” Jackie spoke.

“I...Ohokay. Well I like the surprise, but still…” Shawn tried to explain the situation, but was cut off by a flying beam of red picking him up. “Hey HEY HEY HEY! I didn’t fuckin’ ask for THIS!” Shawn shot at him. His voice grew wobbly the moment he was lifted a little higher. “DoOoOon’t lift me too much, sir…” He ordered softly.

“Zhat’s all he’s liftin’ you. Guarantee!” Henrik told him. “Now vhere to goooo…”

“Go? How about ‘to the door’?” Shawn suggested.

“Jahahaha, Not happening. Oh! I know!” Henrik lifted his foot up, bending Shawn’s knee upwards, and removed the man’s sock.

“Uuuuuhuhuhuh...What are you planning exactly?” Shawn asked.

“Oh! Yust some good ol’ fashioned Serotonin.” Henrik replied.

“Let me rephrase that:” Shawn cleared his throat. “Why me?” Shawn asked. “I get serotonin everyday!”

“By vorking more zhen even I have?” Henrik clarified. “I don’t believe you. Not even a leetle.” Henrik started tickling the bottom of Shawn’s foot, putting Shawn into a giggly state almost immediately. “My my my...Such a giggly Flynn ve have here!” Henrik teased.

“Cohohome ohohohon, Hehehehenryhyhyhy! Ihihis thihihis nehehehessehehessahaharyhyhy?” Shawn asked.

“Vhy YES! It is!” Henrik replied.

“Good choice on the person, Henrik! This is so much cuter than I expected!” Jackie admitted.

“See? Vhat did I tell ya?” Henrik joked.

“That Shawn would be a good choice.” Jackie replied.

“And am I right?” Henrik continued.

“HELL YEAH!” Jackie replied.

Shawn was laughing, kicking the air and hiccuping in the middle of his laughter. He was silently losing his mind and it was so cute to watch!

“Hey Shawny boy!” Jackie wrapped his one arm around Shawn and looked at his own free hand. “How would you feel about superhero fast tickles?” Jackie asked.

“Du kleiner Bösewicht!” Henrik reacted. “I couldn’t imagine!”

Jackie brought his hands to Shawn’s side and started skittering quicker, and quicker, and even more quick! The tickles were going almost 60 wiggles a minute!

“HehehehEHEHEHEHEHAHAHA! HAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! JAHAHAHAHAHA- YAHAHA GOHOHOBSHIHIHITE!” Shawn yelled.

Henrik had bursted out laughing and fell backwards while Jackie was in full confusion.

“I’m sorry, what?” Jackie asked.

“HEHEHE- AAAHAHAHA! HEHEhehe called ya a gobshite!” Henrik laughed. “Gohohobshite! Zhat’s a fuhun wohohord!” Henrik reacted, repeating the word a few times.

Jackie rolled his eyes and resumed tickling the little barker at ‘fuck you’ miles per minute. Shawn was DYING of laughter at this point. He was hiccuping in between his laughter, and wiggling around more than a flopping fish. Who knew that such a quiet soul could have so much energy to let out!

“STAHAHAP IHIHIHIT IHIHIHi’M *hiccup* GOHOHONNA PEEEEEE!” Shawn yelled to him.

“Oh shit, really?” Jackie quickly stopped tickling him and lowered the man down. “If you need to go to the toilet, then please do so!” Jackie told him.

Shawn looked up at the boys, and bit his lip. “Well...Alright.” He talked out of the room and into the bathroom just down the hall. It didn’t take long for Shawn to do his thing and come back.

“There. Now what?” Shawn asked.

“I hope you enjoyed your break! Because TIME FOR MORE TICKLES! But this time: with an empty bladder!” Jackie picked up Shawn, threw him onto the bed, and flew above the bed upside down. With the man laying there and his feet free for the taking, Jackie lowered himself to the feet and started tickling rapidly.

Shawn’s eyes practically burst out of his skull and a SCREAM left his mouth! “OHOHOHO SHIHIHIHI- BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!” Shawn laughed and clapped his hands.

“Ooooh! Not bad, Jackieboy! Your hands may be fast...But only a doctor fully knows zhe human body to its top tier!” Henrik started tickling up and down Shawn’s ribs and even went for the artist’s ab muscles. “Zhese muscles are not used on artists very often. Zherefore:” Henrik started tickling more. “Zhey are tickly vizh a capital T!” Henrik teased.

Shawn’s scream-like laughter filled the room almost immediately. It was so loud and all over the place! It was like he couldn’t figure out how exactly to laugh!

And boy was it worth it!

A little while later:

Henrik and Jackie were watching movies together with a bag of popcorn and pop in front of them.

Soon, Henrik looked over at the super hero and gave his upper rib a poke. Jackie jumped up onto hsi feet on the couch, and pointed at him. “Noooooo...No tickling.”

“Ound vhy not? I zhink some revenge is in order~” Henrik took off running after the quick superhero and managed to find ways to catch up to his super fast opponent. It didn’t take long before Henrik had caught Jackie’s leg in the air, and pulled him right down with a face plant into the ground. “WAHAIT! That was unfair!” Jackie yelled, his nose hurting from the face plant.

“Ja! So is zhis:” Henrik pulled his foot closer to himself and started tickling the red-socked foot really quickly. “Now face zhe fingers of a qualified surgeon!” Henrik declared.

Once in a while, Jamie will fall into a lee mood. It usually started with a playful attitude, and turned into a lee mood rather quickly. Jamie has never really told anyone about these moods before. They were a little new to him. He's felt many ler moods over the years, but rarely any lee moods...Perhaps they fell under the same category? Today however, Jamie's lee mood was rather strong. No matter what he did, he couldn't shake off the urge to be tickled by someone. So, he decided to give in and do something about it. But first, he had to wait for the right moment...

Jamie and Jackie were hanging out in the living room. Jackie was reading a Marvel comic while sitting on the sofa, while Jamie was reading a novel on the couch. Jackie looked quite calm and content while reading. Jamie didn't wanna go right into the begging for tickles, fearing he may scare the man away. Jamie blieved that tickling was to be earned, not asked for. So, he decided to start out by being annoying.

Jamie placed his bookmark into his book and closed it, placing it on the couch. He sat up and walked behind the sofa, to look at what page he was on.

"What's up?" Jackie asked.

'I'm bored.' Jamie complained, bending down onto his knees to rest his hands on the sofa hand rest.

"...okay. What am I supposed to do about that?" Jackie asked.

'Entertain me.' Jamie suggested.

"Nah...go find something else to do." Jackie told him. Jamie let out a sigh and rested his head on the hand rest. It didn't take long for Jamie to think of another way to annoy him. After a couple more minutes of waiting, Jamie decided to strike. He started with a few pokes to his shoulder.

*poke*...*poke*...*poke*

This did nothing. Perhaps a few more?

*poke*...*poke, poke*...*poke*

"Why?" Jackie asked, growing slightly annoyed.

'entertain me.' Jamie ordered.

"I'm not your servant." Jackie replied, flipping the page.

Jamie let out a groan and resumed the poking.

*poke*...*poke*, *poke*...*poke*, *poke*, *poke*...*poke*, *poke*, *poke*-

Jackie rolled up his comic book and lightly bonked Jamie's head with it. Jamie giggled and smiled at the reaction.

"Stop it." Jackie ordered, before unrolling his comic book and opening it back up. Jamie, happy to be succeeding so far, smirked and moved his right hand in front of Jackie's face: 'no.' Jamie signed. Jackie decided to try and ignore him. And so, the poking continued...

*poke*...*poke*, *poke*, *poke*...Jamie let a smirk grow onto his lips as he added his left hand into the poking.

*poke*, *poke*...*poke*, *poke*, *poke*...*poke, *poke*...*poke, poke, poke, poke*

Next, Jamie poked the side of his head. *poke*, *poke*...Jackie lowered his comic book and stared into the abyss in front of him, growing more and more annoyed.

Jamie crawled in front of Jackie with an innocent smile. 'Play with me.' Jamie ordered.

"No. Now stop poking me." Jackie replied through his teeth.

Jamie groaned and looked up to the ceiling. "Why not?" Jamie asked.

"Because you're annoying me!" Jackie replied.

'Good. Then it's working.' Jamie said with a playful glint in his eyes.

Jackie rolled his eyes. "I'm not interested." Jackie told him.

Jamie narrowed his eyes. That was a lie, if he's ever heard one. So, Jamie continued his poking.

*poke*, *poke*...*poke*, *poke*, *poke*...

Jackie dropped his arms and comic, in pure, reoccurring annoyance.

*poke*, *poke*...*poke*, *poke*, *poke, poke* *poke, poke, pokepoke poke-*

"That's it. COME HERE, YA LITTLE-" Jackie said, drifting off before scooping Jamie up under the arms and pulling him onto his lap. With Jamie now in his grasp, Jackie started clawing at Jamie's stomach, sides, and digging into Jamie's hips. Jamie bursted into silent laughter and started wiggling and squirming back and forth. "Is this what you wanted? Did you want tickles? Is that it?" Jackie teased with a smile, still slightly annoyed from all the poking.

Jamie nodded his head amidst the tickles and happily laughed in Jackie's lap.

"Well, you're getting what you wanted now! And since I'm here..." Jackie said, before beginning to poke Jamie absolutely everywhere on his upper body. "How about a little revenge while I'm at it?" Jackie finished, poking Jamie as revenge for his constant poking.

'No!' Jamie signed, struggling to sign while being tickled.

"No? But, you asked for this! You should've thought of what you were getting yourself into, before you started annoying this monster." Jackie teased.

'Monster?!' Jamie signed, starting to grow nervous of what Jackie was planning.

"Ooooh yes! You've awakened a VERY hungry beast!" Jackie started, before undoing a couple buttons on the bottom of Jamie's vest. "And do you know what this beast is hungry for?" Jackie asked, now undoing the lower part of Jackie's shirt.

'...What?' Jamie asked, after a bit of nervous waiting.

Jackie lifted up Jamie's shirt, and bent his fingers into claw shapes. "This delicious tummy! Arrawrawrawrawr!" Jackie started. He began making rawring noises, while clawing and wiggling his fingers all over his bare tummy. Jamie's eyes widened as a wide toothy grin showed itself. He began wiggling and squirming around absolutely everywhere! Unfortunately, this wasn't helping anything because the claws were only getting access to more ticklish spots on his body!

"AARAWRAWRAWR! ARAWRAWRAWRAWRAWRARAWRAWR! Feel the vengeance of the EVIL BEAST! ARAWRAWRAWRAWR!" Jackie teased, using his 'claws' to 'maul' the man like a ferocious bear.

"What's all the commotion in here?" Someone said, walking in. Jackie paused his tickling for a moment, and looked up: It was Chase.

"I'm a bear, trying to get myself some dinner! and Jamie is my dinner. ARAWRAWRAWRAWR!" Jackie explained, resuming his bear acting.

Chase giggled and covered his mouth with the back of his hand. "What?" Jackie asked, pausing his acting again.

"You sound like Mr. Krabs..." Chase told him.

"I sound like Mr. Krabs?" Jackie clarified. Chase nodded. In an act of clarification, Jackie leaned his head in towards Jamie. "Do I sound like Mr. Krabs to you?" Jackie asked, putting his hands on his hips dramatically.

Jamie nodded his head yes in response. Jackie smirked as an idea came to his head.

"Well! I suppose I should start clawing you like one as well!" Jackie declared, shaping his hands like claws, and digging his 'claw' hands into Jamie's sides and hips.

Jamie's eyes widened before squeezing shut as his laughter and squirming started up all over again.

"AAAARG arg arg arg arg arg! Spongebob! Stop yer movin'! I'm tryin' t'tickle ya here!" Jackie teased, using his best Mr. Krabs impression to further tease the man.

Chase bursted out laughing! The Mr. Krabs voice was both very accurate, and also very funny! "Who knew these hardy claws could be used fer more, than just MONEY, MONEY MONEYMONEYMONEY?!" Jackie teased further.

Jackie couldn't help but notice that Chase was still laughing. So, he decided to take advantage of it! "Squidward! Why are ya laughin' there, my boy? Is someone ticklin' ya too?" Jackie asked in his Mr. Krabs voice.

"Why am I Squidward?! Why can't Jamie be Squidward?" Chase asked. Jackie narrowed his eyes and lifted the man off of him, before placing him down and moving onto Chase.

"Because IIII choose who shall be Squidward, and who shall be Spongebob!" Jackie argued, walking closer to him.

"Buhuhut I dohohon't wahahan't toho be Squihidwahahard!" Chase said, his giggling growing louder and more frequent, the closer Jackie got to him.

"Well, ain't this a sad day..." Jackie (Mr. Krabs) said, stopping and putting his hands on his hips. "The poor man doesn't wanna be Squidward! Well my boy, yer gonna have to learn de truth about life." Jackie said, before digging his 'claws' into Chase's ribs.

"WAAhahahaha! WAHAHAHAHAIT!" Chase bursted out, doubling over to get the 'claws' away.

"No one can change who ya truly are, whether ya like it er not! Now, III have the eyes of an eagle, ma boy, and I can recognize a man such as yourself, from many miles away! Wanna know how?" Jackie teased in his Mr. Krabs voice, as he tickled up and down his ribs. Chase was too busy laughing to even respond to him! "Well, that's easy! Yer blue," Mr Krabs (Jackie) started, poking the man on the stomach.

"EEEHEHE!" Chase reacted.

"Ya gotta brown shirt with de collar as well," Jackie added, wiggling a couple fingers on the back of his neck for a few seconds, before resuming his clawing.

"EEEEEK! Dohohon't!" Chase reacted, scrunching his neck for a few seconds.

"You gotta big nose," Jackie mentioned, giving Chase's nose a little *boop* with his finger. "And, yer de most handsome man that III've ever seen!" Jackie finished before massaging his ab muscles with his fingers.

"BAHAHAHAHA! NAHAHAT MY AHAHAHABS! STAHAHAHAP THAHAHAHAT!" Chase laughed.

"But it's true! Ya can't deny de truth there boy!" Jackie teased, still talking in his Mr. Krabs voice.

Chase, unable to take much more, decided to risk more tickles and tickle Jackie back. Jackie's Mr. Krabs facade completely dropped, before his laughter completely took over instead.

"What- AAAAAH! NAAHAHAHAHAHA! CHAHAHAHASE!" Jackie reacted, bursting into laughter.

"What's wrong? Is the 'handsome' man getting revenge on you?" Chase asked, giving him the duck lips to imitate handsome squidward's lips for a second.

"YEHEHEHEHES!" Jackie replied.

"Hey! You brought this upon yourself. I'm just finishing it." Chase reminded him. "Now: Let's see how useful these 'claws' really are." Chase declared, before attempting the clawing method Jackie previously used on him.

"OhohOHOHO GAHAHAHAHAD! THIHIHIS IHIS WOHOHOHORSE THAHAHAN IHIHI THOHOHOHOUGHT!" Chase shouted, throwing his head back and letting every single laugh out of his lungs.

"See how ticklish it was?! It's surprising how ticklish these claws can really be!" Chase reacted along with him. Chase looked towards Jamie, who looked almost...disappointed. He looked like a pouting child, who was not allowed a second cookie after supper...Chase could tell something was off...

"What's wrong?" Chase asked, stopping his tickle attack to focus on Jamie. Jamie looked up at Chase, with the most puppy dog-like eyes Chase had ever seen on a person.

Jackie lifted his hands to sign something, but dropped them when no signs could form.

Jackie looked at Jamie as well. "He looks...jealous." Jackie observed.

'Tickle.' Jamie signed. Jackie's eyebrows raised in surprise.

"Tickle? Ya, I'm tickling Jackie." Chase clarified, unsure of what Jamie was saying exactly.

Jamie shook his head. 'I wanna be tickled too.' Jamie replied.

"You wanna be tickled? But you were already tickled!" Chase argued.

Jamie crossed his arms. 'But I wanna be tickled more.' Jamie argued back.

Jackie looked at the man, but let a crooked smile grow onto his face. "Okay, I'm giving in. This is too cute." Jackie reacted, speed-walking over to Jamie, to give the man a hug. "You're so adorable." Jackie said, his words slightly muffled because of Jamie's shoulder.

Jackie continued the hug for a couple more seconds, before deciding to claw Jamie all over his ribs. Jamie's body immediately started convulsing, and the squirming re-continued as he stood in his arms. "Is this what you wanted? Are you this desperate for some tickles?" Jackie cooed. Jamie, amidst the squirming, nodded his head to answer back.

"Can I help?" Chase asked.

"Of course! Come on over! I'll get the man ready." Jackie replied. Chase happily walked up and watched as Jackie sat down on the sofa and brought Jamie onto his lap. Once secure, Jackie continued the clawing and started adding some squeezing into the mix as well. "There! Go for his feet!" Jackie suggested.

Chase smiled back and reached for a foot. When he got a hold of one of his kicking feet, Chase started untying the shoelace and removing his shoe. It didn't take long for a *plop* to be heard as the shoe hit the ground. Then, Chase started by skittering his fingers under the entire foot.

Jamie's squirming froze for a moment. Jackie watched as a huge smile filled Jamie's features, and his head tipped right back to let out hysterics of laughter. Now, Jackie was holding onto the man rather than tickling him, and watching him squirm frantically within his grasp. He looked so happy to be tickled like this! How did they know this? Because for one, he was smiling widely through his laughter. And for two, Jamie wasn't pushing anyone away or smacking anyone in order to stop them. He was just squirming back and forth. The truth is, Jamie trusted them to tickle him to bits, and could trust that they knew when to give him the much needed breaks.

Chase walked into the living room, slumped over with a blanket on his back. He walked up to the nearest couch, and collapsed onto it. Chase was in a weird funk. He was bored, tired and sad at the same time. He couldn’t think of anything to do, which made him sad. He considered going for a walk, but he was tired. He considered drinking some whiskey to get the sadness away, but the relief wouldn’t last. He needed a serious pick me up.

He was laying on his stomach with his face smooched into the cushions, and a blanket on his back. So, he didn’t realize that Jackie had flown above him, and noticed his funk. He flew himself down to Chase’s field of view.

“You don’t look good buddy.” Jackie commented.

“I’m not.” Chase mumbled in the cushions. Jackie went into a sitting position and floated down beside him.

“What’s making you blue?” Jackie asked.

“I don’t know.” Chase mumbled. Jackie lifted an eyebrow.

“Well, something’s gotta be bringing you down.” Jackie stated.

Chase mentally rolled his eyes and shifted his head.

“Why don’t you go for a walk? You tend to go for walks whenever you feel gloomy.” Jackie suggested.

“I’m tired.” Chase replied.

Jackie lifted both eyebrows in surprise. This is one serious funk... “Do you want me to get you some ice cream? We have some in the freezer.” Jackie suggested. Chase thought about it, but shrugged his shoulders. At this point, he didn’t care.

“Oh! What about some coffee?” Jackie suggested.

Chase lifted an eyebrow. A coffee? At 2 o’clock in the afternoon? Why bother? All Chase felt like doing right now, was sleeping the day away.

“I just wanna sleep.” Chase mumbled. Jackie’s face fell, but he shrugged it off.

“Okay. Whatever you say. Have a good sleep.” Jackie replied, before flying away.

A few hours later:

Jackie came to check up on his tired friend. He looked at the couch, to see a sleeping Chase, but with the blanket knocked off him. He must’ve been kicking or moving in his sleep, to lose his blanket like that. He seemed so comfortable. He must’ve been beyond exhausted to be sleeping this long. But, Jackie decided that enough was enough. It was time for him to wake up.

He flew over top of the sleeping body, and thought of how he was gonna wake him up. He thought of just shaking him awake, but that would’ve been boring. He wanted something fun! He thought about using a pillow. That seemed like the better choice. He grabbed a decorative pillow that was nearby, and readied the pillow behind his back. But, just as he was about to throw it at the man, a tiny feather (probably from the pillow) came floating down in front of him. Jackie paused his plan and watched the feather float to the ground. When the tiny feather touched the hardwood floor, a lightbulb went off above his head.

Placing the pillow back where it was, he quietly flew to the arts and crafts closet and opened the door. He looked around in the different bins and craft items, and came across a ziplock bag of multicoloured feathers from the dollar store. He grabbed a wide purple fluffy feather, and a narrow yellow stiff feather. Then, he put the bin back, and few over to the couch once again. He looked Chase up and down, to figure out where he wanted to try the feathers first. While looking down, he couldn’t help but notice that Chase’s feet were bare. That single sight had sparked some intense mischief inside of him.

So, he flew to the end of the couch, and put away the purple feather. He lowered his feather to the sole of his left foot, and waited for the touchdown. When he felt the tip touch the sole, he quickly fluttered it back and forth.

Chase pulled his foot away and paused his breathing for a second. Jackie pulled his feather back and covered his mouth to keep himself from laughing. After a couple seconds of suspenseful waiting, Chase relaxed his feet and started breathing again. Jackie slowly uncovered his mouth and reached his feather back onto his foot. Once it touched, he fluttered it back and forth again.

This time, Chase let out a squeak and pulled his feet back once again. Jackie looked up, and noticed Chase was trying to squeeze his eyes shut, and stop the little smile showing up on his lips. Growing more and more determined to wake him up, Jackie decided to go all out. He grabbed Chase’s foot, and fluttered the feather back and forth on his sole.

Chase let out a high pitched squeal. “Hehehehey! Whahahahahat are yohohohou dohohohohohoing?” Chase asked through his laughter.

“I’m waking you! Wakey-wakey, sleepyhead!” Jackie cooed, moving the feather to Chase’s inner arch.

“GAHahahahahahaha! Wait! Plehehehease! Hahahahaha!” Chase yelled, kicking his free foot as he curled into a ball.

“Please? Please what?” Jackie asked.

“Tihihihihickle mehehehehehehe!” Chase pleaded.

“Oooh! Please tickle me! Why, I’d LOVE to tickle you!” Jackie teased, dropping the feather and using his fingernails to tickle Chase’s feet more.

“Wait, WHAT?! THAT’S NOT WHAT-HAHAHAHAHAHA! NAHAHAHAHAHAHA!” Chase screeched.

“I’m sorry, what was that? That wasn’t what you meant?” Jackie asked. Chase shook his head hysterically.

“No? No as in ‘No, that’s not what I meant’? Or no as in ‘No! That’s wrong’? Please be more specific.” Jackie asked curiously.

“FORMER! THEHEHEHE FOHOHOHOHORMER!” Chase replied frantically.

Jackie gasped. “Oooooh! I think I get it! You didn’t mean this much tickles...” Jackie started. Chase would’ve let out a sigh of relief if he wasn’t laughing right now. “You meant EVEN MORE TICKLES!” Jackie proclaimed. Chase’s eyes practically bounced right out of his skull.

“JACKIE! I SWEAR TO GOD IF YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT TOUCHING ME, YOU HAVE ANOTHER THING COMING!” Chase threatened.

Jackie lifted his eyebrows in pure surprise.

“Huh...And I was considering going easy on you...Welp, that’s thrown out the window now. Get ready for the climax!” Jackie declared, wiggling his fingers teasingly and flying upwards. Chase watched Jackie carefully, ready to strike when the moment hit. But suddenly, when Jackie dived his entire body down to attack, Chase yelped and curled into a cowardly ball. Chase’s eyes were shut, and his teeth were clenched. He was ready.

But...nothing happened. Realizing this, Chase opened one of the eyes, and saw a face full of Jackie with his hood. Jackie gave Chase a big smile, and dug his fingers into his stomach.

“EEEEEKK! AAAhahahahahahaha!” Chase laughed, turning onto his back and swinging his arms every which way. Jackie stopped his fingers for a second, and dug his fingers into Chase’s hips next.

“OH NOOOOOHOHOHOOHO! JAHAHAHAHAHACKIEEE!” Chase called through his intensified laughter. Suddenly, the tickling stopped, and some more tickling had started again: on his feet once more. Jackie had flown away, grabbed both feet and spidered them with tons of tickles.

“For the love of gahahahahahahad! Too much! Tohohohohoo muhuhuhuhuch!” Chase warned through his bouncy laughter.

Jackie kept on tickling a certain place on his body for a few seconds, before switching things up and trying a new spot. It was like Jackie was teleporting in and out from every angle he could, covering different areas of skin with tickles. With this new method of tickling, Chase’s laughter bounced from hard to soft, from cackles to giggles, from sudden squeals to unexpected snorts, and from normal pitched to high pitched. It was odd being able to hear all the sounds Chase’s voice could make. They were bits and pieces, but it was adorable!

“What’s this? A ticklish neck? How unusual? Perhaps I could put my glorious facial hair to good use?”

“Ooooh! I see some ticklish little ribsies! Let’s see: How many ribs are there in the human body? I could ask Henrik, but I’m afraid he’s busy! So, we’ll have to find out ourself!”

“Is this what I think it is? You’ve seen it here folks! Mr. Brody here, has ticklish armpits! It would be a shame if someone were to expose such secretive information.”

“Would you take a look at this belly button! So small! So deep!...and so ticklish! Aaaa coochy-coochy-coo! Aaaa coochy-coochy-coochy-coochy-coo!......Aaaaaaaa coochy-coochy-coochy-coochy-coochy-coochy-coochy-coochy-coo!”

And the teasing! Dear god the teasing! It was killing Chase!

Meanwhile, Jackie had took a mental note of the spot that made his favourite laugh: the titters, giggles and snorts. You’re probably wondering: what’s a titter? Well, it’s another word for a ‘short, half suppressed laugh’. That’s right people! Chase would let out suppressed laughs, snort in between, and burst into giggles! Who knew such an adorable laugh existed?! Certainly not Jackie. Jackie had come back to the feet for a bit, before trying out the back of his knee. This was the moment Jackie just about died from cuteness overload. It was like seeing a newborn puppy whimper for the first time!

For the final spot, Jackie wanted to try out the back of the knee and get that adorable laugh one more time. Using the yellow feather, he fluttered it back and forth on the back of his knee.

“Pffffff! *snort* Hehehehehehehe! Plehehehehehease! *Snort* I’m behehehegging yohohohou!” Chase pleaded, ground pounding the couch and shaking his head wildly. By now, Chase’s hair had gone messy, his hat was on the floor, and his shirt had remained risen up from Jackie’s tickle session on the belly button.

“Okay, okay, okay. I’ll stop.” Jackie heartened, slowing his feather, placing it onto the couch’s arm chair and flying away from him to give him space. Chase laid on the couch in the fetal position, letting out the leftover giggles that were trapped in his lungs. His hair was messy and standing up in a few places, and he had a wobbly smile that wouldn’t go away no matter what he did.

“You feeling better?” Jackie asked, floating closer.

Chase turned to Jackie and smiled wider. “Yes, thank you. Though, I lost my hat.” Chase said, looking around the couch.

Jackie looked down, and found the hat on the ground. He picked it up, dusted it off and reached it out for Chase.

“Thanks...” Chase said, grabbing both the hat and his arm along with it. Confused, Jackie was gonna say something. But he ended up being interrupted by his own yelp, as Chase pulled his arm towards him and locked him into his arms.

“Your turn!” Chase announced confidently, holding Jackie in his arms.

“What?! I did this to wake you up! I’m already awake!” Jackie argued.

“Good! That means you’re ready for this then!” Chase clarified, digging his fingers into Jackie’s bottom ribs.

“BAAHAHAHAHAHAHA! CHAHAHAHAHASE! WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!” Jackie exploded,squirming back and forth like a mad man and throwing his head back against Chase’s shoulder.

“My my my! What ticklish ribs you have! It would be a shame if a bad guy were to find out this secretive information.” Chase teased, smirking at his evil words.

Jackie yelped at the threat. “NOHOHOHOHO! PLEHEHEHEASE DOHOHOHOHOHON’T! DON’T TEHEHEHELL THEHEHEHEM!” Jackie begged, squirming growing more and more frantic.

“Oh don’t you worry, damsel in distress: I’ll keep your secret.” Chase replied, winking before digging his fingers into Jackie’s hips.

Jackie let out an ear piercing squeal, and bursted out into high pitched giggles.

“Goodness gracious! You’ve got some deep hips! I’d better dig a little deeper! zzzZZZZZZZZ! ZZZZZZZZZ! ZZZ! ZZZ! ZZZ! zzzzZZZZZZzzzz!” Chase teased, making electric drilling noises as he dug both fingers deeper and out of Jackie’s hips.

“EEEEEEEEKK! COME OHOHOHOHON! PLEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEASE!” Jackie pleaded desperately as he squirmed wildly.

“I’m almost done drilling! I just need to make the circles a little bigger! Alright?” Chase explained, before digging deeper and drawing circles with his fingers.

Jackie threw his head back and gasped, before letting out an ear-piercing scream. “YAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! CHAHAHAHAHAHAHASE!” Jackie screamed.

“Whaaaat? Is it too much? I thought a strong superhero like you could handle this?” Chase teased with an evil smirk.

“I-I CAHAHAHAN! IHIHIHI CAHAHAHAHAHAN!” Jackie argued.

“Oh! You CAN handle it? That’s great! Cause there’s a one more spot I want to try before I stop.” Chase replied, removing his fingers before picking him up bridal style.

With Jackie safely secured in his arms, Chase lowered Jackie onto the couch and quickly grabbed his feet.

“W-Wait! Not...my feet...please...I’ll go...insane...” Jackie begged through his breaths. Chase ignored him at first, focusing on removing the red socks off his feet.

Chase glanced up at the man, and started to feel a bit bad. So, he decided to take pity on him. He looked around, and noticed the yellow feather from earlier, lying on the floor. He picked it up, and showed the superhero.

“Look what I found?” Chase asked, spinning the feather in a mesmerizing manner.

Jackie gulped, and felt his face darken into a darker shade of red.

“Any last words?” Chase asked, lowering the feather closer and closer to the left foot.

Jackie’s giggling got worse, the closer the feather came. Waiting for the touchdown was torture in and of itself, let alone the tickling that was gonna go with it. Jackie kept his mouth shut as he stared nervously at the feather.

“Well in that case, let’s get on with it!” Chase declared, fluttering the feather against Jackie’s soles.

Jackie let out an insane amount of titters and giggles. When Chase moved the feather to the inner arch, Jackie just about lost it! He threw his head back and let out long fits of cackles. Squirming wildly, he kicked his feet and practically eradicated the couch with his fists alone. Chase’s jaw dropped. Who knew a superhero could express such reckless behaviour?

“Wow! Who knew a superhero could hold such aggression?” Chase teased.

Jackie would’ve replied, but his laughter was stopping him! He couldn’t reply, he couldn’t push away, he couldn’t even tickle back! Chase was just out of reach! The only thing he could do, was laugh and laugh and laugh. And he...actually loved it! He loved being in this position!

“Okay. How about these tiny toesies? Are they ticklish, by any chance?” Chase asked in a baby voice as he examined his toes up close.

Jackie looked away from the man, his face a deep scarlet hue.

Instead of asking again, he answered his own question by fluttering the feather under his toes.

Jackie let out another squeal, and burst out into hysterical laughter. Jackie couldn’t take much more. But, he couldn’t tell him. So, he rolled towards the end of the couch, and allowed himself to fall off. In a single second, Chase’s smirk has slid off his face. He jumped over to help him.

“You okay? I’m sorry if I took it too far.” Chase apologized guiltily. Jackie waved his hands and let a weak smile grow onto his lips.

“It’s...okay...I just wanted you...to feel better...If that involves me...being tickled...as well...than I’ll allow it...” Jackie replied through shallow and quick breaths.

Chase’s body lightened up. “Okay. Good. Thank you.” Chase said, hugging his sweaty friend.

Jackie smirked and gave Chase’s ribs a little tickle. “No problem.” He replied.

“Hehehehey! Nohohoho mohohohore!” Chase laughed, leaning his forehead against Jackie’s shoulder and lightly squirming back and forth.

“Hmm...nah.” Jackie replied before digging his fingers into Chase’s armpits.

“BAHAHAHAHAHAHA!” Chase exploded, throwing his head back happily.

Jackie decided to take the upper hand on the tickle fight once more.

“Do I have your permission to give you a raspberry?” Jackie asked.

“Whahahahat?!” Chase replied through his laughter, confused and shocked at such a weird question.

“Can I give you a raspberry?” Jackie asked.

“We hahahahave no rahahahasbeheherries ihihin the house!” Chase exclaimed. Jackie rolled his eyes.

“No! Not that kind of raspberry, silly! This kind of raspberry!” Jackie clarified, before blowing a big raspberry onto Chase’s neck.

“AAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! HOHOHOHOHOLY SHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIT! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!” Chase screamed, completely unprepared for the strange sensation.

Jackie gave him a break, to let him properly talk. As the man took control of his giggles once more, his eyes widened at a sudden realization.

“I used to do that to my child all the time! I didn’t know it was called a raspberry!” Chase exclaimed.

“Really?!” Jackie replied, surprised that such a person could do something without being educated by it...actually, never mind. People do things without knowing about it all the time!

“Ya! Well, I guess an old man like me learns something new everyday...” Chase decided. Suddenly, Chase thought of something. “Wait a sec...how did you know what it was called?” Chase asked.

“Oh my god...I’ve known about that silly form of torture since I was a kid myself. My parents were ruthless ticklers.” Jackie explained.

Chase thought of an evil little thing to ask... “How would you feel about a blast to the past?” Chase asked.

Jackie lifted one eyebrow. “How so?” Jackie asked. Before Jackie could properly think, Chase had wrapped his arms around him, bent down, lifted his shirt, and was taking in a big puff of air.

“Oh GOD! NO, DON’T YOU-“ Jackie shouted, before feeling the rippling feeling of a raspberry against his belly button of all places. Jackie just about lost it. It had been so long since he felt the familiar tickly feeling! The last thing Jackie thought before going mad from laughter, was:

Jackie whistled a song to himself, as he dusted the top of his dresser. He had been rewarded a day off for his hard work and as a result, decided to clean up his room a bit. After dusting a few more surfaces, he was ready for sweeping. Jackie placed the disposable dust rag into the garbage, and grabbed the broom and dust pan. He would've normally vacuumed his room to get rid of the dust, but the vacuum consisted of a big heavy hose, and a big vacuum head. Despite how strong he was, he was too tired to even consider lifting such a thing. So, he settled for the next best option. He placed the dust pan onto his bed and started sweeping. He swept the overall floor area, under his chair, under the dresser, under his desk, and in the corners of the room that were filled with dust and dirt. He swept all the dirt out of the corners, and into little piles throughout the room. There was a pile beside the closet, in the middle of the floor, in one of the corners of the room, in front of the dresser, on the side of the chair, and a pile starting on the floor near his bed. For the last part of the room, he had to grab the smaller brush to reach under his bed. With the smaller broom in hand, he started sweeping all the dust bunnies, dirt piles, and bits of garbage out from underneath the bed. Once it was all in a pile, Jackie grabbed the dustpan and swept the dirt onto it.

Placing aside the dustpan, Jackie double checked under the bed, to be sure he collected all that he could find. It was a good thing he did, because there was still a big dust bunny left under the bed. Jackie wrapped his fingers around the broom, and reached for the dust bunny. The broom bristles managed to touch it, but not enough to pull it out. After a bit more reaching, Jackie managed to get a good grip on the dust bunny and pull it out from under the bed. Upon closer inspection, however...it wasn't a cobweb...it's a spider web...Jackie's eyes widened as the realization slapped him across the face. readying his reflexes for the worst, Jackie reached out the broom, squeezed his eyes shut, clenched his teeth, and poked it...

He poked it a few more times, before opening his eyes again. Upon looking down again, Jackie just about died at the sight below him:

There were baby spiders covering his feet and pants, with the mama spider standing on his knee...inspecting him with those dozens of eyes...

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH! GETOFFGETOFFGETOFFGETOFFGETOFF!" Jackie screamed, frantically swatting away as many of the baby spiders as he could, before taking off in a quick sprint, right out of his room. Closing the door behind him, Jackie continued following his fight or flight response out to the living room. Terrified at the thought of all the spiders following him, he looked back at the ground to see if his thought had come to life. Thankfully, it hadn't.

"Okayokayokay...Uh...fly swatter? No, not enough. Fire extinguisher? No, I'm not gonna waste that." Jackie thought aloud, trying to think of a good weapon for going into combat against the army of spiders taking over his room. Looking around, he happened to notice a box of matches, and an idea popped into his head. He ran to the kitchen, picked up the Barbecue lighter. Then, he ran up to the door, kicked the door down and turned the flame on. Thinking he could set the spiders on fire and burn them, he ran towards the bed where the spider home was, and placed the flame under the bed and into the home. Suddenly, instead of burning the spiderwebs like he had hoped for, a second army of spiders had crawled away from the flame, and in all opposite directions.

"OOOOOOOOH MYGODTHERE'SMORE! HOLY SH- NO! NOPE, NOPENOPENOPENOPENOPE! NO-FUCK THAT SHIT! I AIN'T DEALING WITH THAT SHIT!" Jackie shouted, dropping the lighter and sprinting out of his room once again.

This time however, Jackie's fight or flight responses were about to be interrupted by a mere person walking, completely unprepared for the accidental tackle he was about to receive.

Before they both knew it, Jackie's body was laying on a man, dressed in a tuxedo shirt, a vest, and a pair of dress pants. Jackie had an idea of who it might be, but checked the body's face to be sure. His suspicions were correct: Jackie had just ran into Jameson Jackson.

"Oh my GOD! I'm SOOO SORRY Jamie! I didn't see you there, I should've been looki-" Jackie yelled frantically, before being shushed by a finger on his lips.

'It's okay.' Jamie signed with his dominant hand. Jackie could feel his cheeks heating up slightly from embarrassment. 'what were you running from?' Jamie asked.

Jackie let out a few nervous chuckles as he scratched the back of his head. "uh...it's nothing. I can take care of it on my own." Jackie reassured hesitantly.

'take care of what?' Jamie asked. Jackie's forehead started to sweat at the thought of dealing with such creepy crawly demons.

"Uhhhhhhhhhh...There may or may not be...an army of spiders living under my bed..." Jackie explained awkwardly, stuttering at the thought of those long legs crawling all over him.

Jamie's eyes widened from pure surprise. 'how long has your room been left uncleaned for?' Jamie asked, genuinely curious.

"I DON'T KNOW, ALL I CARE ABOUT RIGHT NOW IS GETTING RID OF THE CREEPY SPAWNS OF SATAN." Jackie raised his voice frantically.

Jamie cracked up at the silly nickname. 'Why the brutal nickname? Are you afraid of them?' Jamie signed teasingly.

Jackie gasped, offended at the accusation. "Excuse me?! Are you assuming that I, the fearless superhero from Ireland, would be scared of such a tiny, harmless creature?" Jackie attacked in an egotistic fashion, before striking a dramatic pose and closing his eyes. While standing in his heroic and confident stance, a little creature happened to be using a piece of web to descend from the ceiling...riiiight in front of the cocky superhero.

*snap* *snap* Jackie heard, from his mute friend. Opening his eyes, he was about to ask what he wanted...when a daddy long legs had decided to climb down, right in front of him. The spider stared at his eyes for not even 3 seconds, before...

"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHH! EWEWEWEWEW! OH MY GOD KILLIT! KILL IT!" Jackie screamed, stepping backwards fast enough to trip on his own feet and fall backwards. Despite the desperateness coming from Jackie's voice, Jamie proceeded to laugh and point at his reaction.

'Your face! It's priceless!' Jamie signed as he doubled over and silently laughed.

"JJ! WHAT THE HELL?! KILL IT ALREADY!" Jackie shouted, becoming annoyed by Jamie's antics.

'what?! no! Why would I kill a spider?' Jamie signed, before letting the spider stand on his finger. Jackie's jaw dropped, as a high pitched, fear induced cry left his mouth. 'See? Harmless.' Jamie concluded.

"Okay, technically you're right: It's harmless. But that doesn't mean they're not creepy-looking..." Jackie defended calmly. Jamie nodded as he turned away from the superhero. He walked up to a nearby window, opened it, and placed the spider outside to live the rest of its life. "Okay! That's one spider gone...out of THOUSANDS! And I'M NOT DEALING WITH THAT HELLHOLE ON MY OWN..." Jackie warned.

'Who would've thought that a superhero, known for his bravery in the toughest situations, would be so scared of a few spiders?' Jamie mocked.

Jackie stuttered at the sight of the last sign Jamie used. "Stop-...stop signing that word...P-Please..." Jackie begged.

'What sign? Spider? Is the spider sign disturbing you?' Jamie asked, signing the word 'Spider' a lot more dramatically and creepily.

"Yes! Yes it is! Now, stop!" Jackie demanded.

'Alright, alright. I'll stop.' Jamie replied, holding his hands up in surrender. Jackie breathed a sigh of relief, flopped his upper body onto the couch, and closed his eyes. For a few moments, Jackie was able to calm himself down a bit. That was, until he felt something crawling on his arm. Thinking it was another spider, Jackie let his instincts completely take over his actions. his whole body jumped, his arms flailed around to knock off the spider, and a fear-induced squeal was freed from Jackie's mouth. Looking towards the side, he realized that Jamie (who had been making fun of him from a few feet away), had inched right up to the end of the couch. Gazing his eyes upon the glimmer of mischief in Jamie's, Jackie gulped and backed away as best he could.

'5 creepy spiders...' Jamie signed. The number five was signed the same way anyone would represent five: using all five fingers from one of your hands. Meanwhile, the word 'Creepy', was signed by making his right hand crawl up his own left arm. '5 creepy spiders...' Jamie signed again, tiptoeing closer to the frightened man. Jackie, nervous about what was coming, backed up as best as he could on the couch.

"Oh god, PLEASE DON'T!" Jackie begged, covering his mouth in nervous fear.

'see how they crawl...see how they crawl...' Jamie continued, stepping closer and closer, in a creepy fashion. By now, Jamie's face was very close to Jackie's, and his hands were right below his face, to frighten Jackie further. Jackie didn't have anywhere else to go (or so he thought), and his fight or flight responses were starting to take over once again.

'Crawl crawl crawl...' Jamie signed. However, Jamie didn't use the traditional sign for 'crawl'. Instead, he signed the word 'spider' over and over again as he leaned his hands towards his body. As he got closer and closer, Jamie separated the wrists, and continued to wiggle his fingers in a teasy fashion. 'crawl crawl crawl...' Jamie inched his separated hands even closer, aiming for the open, vulnerable spot in front of him... Jamie smirked as he landed his hands, on his sides. 'crawl crawl crawl crawl crawl crawl crawl...' Jamie signed, as he skittered his fingers up and down Jackie's sides and ribs.

"NAAAhahahahahaha! Hehehehehehey!" Jackie bursted out, flailing his arms everywhere and rolling back and forth frantically.

Jamie wiggled both sets of fingers just like spiders, up and up and up to...Jackie's exposed armpits!

Jackie instinctively clamped his arms down. "NO! Nohohohohohohahohahahahaha!" Jackie laughed gleefully. Jamie's eyes widened. That wasn't supposed to happen! He should've expected his hands to get stuck. But: he didn't, and now he's in a bit of a pickle...He tried pulling his arms out, but that didn't work at all! It appeared both of his hands were stuck between a rock and a hard place! So, he gave up, shrugged his shoulders and wiggled his still movable fingers.

"Jahahahahahamie! Hahahahahahahahaha!" Jackie called through his laughter, tensing his arms instinctively as he squirmed left and right. Jamie lifted his head slightly, and acted as if Jackie had only now gotten his attention! He turned his head to the side to show him his ear, as if to tell him 'I'm listening' through pure facial expression. "Knohohohohock it ohohohohoff!" Jackie instructed.

What's this?! If Jackie trying to order him around like a sidekick of some sort? How dare he! You'd think that he'd know to keep his mouth shut when he's vulnerable like this! Perhaps Jamie could put him in his place? But how would he do that? His hands are stuck, and he can't really 'talk' in the same sense...but...he does have a mouth...

Though quite a childish move, Jamie decided to treat the superhero like a little baby. he gave Jackie the most mischievous facial expression man has ever seen, before lowering his face down to Jackie's stomach...and nibbling at his stomach! He gave Jackie the whole treatment! He moved his face back and forth like a famished monster, and made gobbling, growling and nibbling noises, like he would to a baby.

Jackie threw his head back as an ear-piercing scream left his mouth. "AAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! WHAHAHAHAHAHAHAT THE FUHUHUHUHUHUHUCK?!" Jackie yelled, both confused, shocked and utterly offended that Jamie would treat him like a baby.

Jamie gasped. He just said a bad word! The NERVE of this man! Jamie stopped the tickling, and made a scowling face to show his distaste before shaking his head in disapproval. Jamie removed one of his hands from Jackie's armpits, and waited for something to appear onto his hands. In no time at all, a puff of smoke covered Jamie's whole hand and when it faded away, Jamie's hand was covered in...origami paper claws?

"Uh...heheheheh...Why?" Jackie asked, staring at the paper claws, created out of what appeared to be black construction paper. To answer his question, Jamie folded all his fingers in except for his index finger, which he kept out and wiggled teasingly in the air. That single movement seemed to send a chill down Jackie's spine, and a few unanticipated giggles to leave his mouth. He could not even IMAGINE what those claws would feel like...

Luckily for Jackie, he didn't have to imagine! Because before he knew it, Jackie was feeling some poking and spidery crawling, moving up and down his ribs. Jackie let out a yelp, and looked down to see Jamie moving the claws the same way a spider would move its legs. Sure, there were less legs on this 'spider', but it was still creepy looking and most of all: SUPER tickly!

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! THIHIHIHIS FEELS SOHOHOHOHOHO WEHEHEHEHEIRD!" Jackie complained through his laughter. Jamie dropped his jaw, before turning it into a wide smile. It was working! Jamie continued to use these makeshift claws onto lots of different spots! He tried them out on his stomach:

"EEEEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHAHAHAHA! AAAAH! WAHAHAHAHAHAIT!" Jackie reacted, pushing at Jamie's paper fingers as his stomach was poked and prodded.

He tried out the belly button while he was there:

"ooOOOOOOOH NOOOOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO! NAHAHAHAT THERE! NAHAHAHAT THEHEHEHEHEHERE!" Jackie yelled frantically, giving up on pushing away the claws, and instead covering his mouth and tensing his fists.

He also tried the feet for a few minutes:

"OHOHOHOHO MY GAAAHAHAHAHAHAD! OH GEEZ! OH NOHOHO! PLEASE, NOT THERE! I'M BEHEHEHEHEGGING YOU!" Jackie reacted, becoming jumpy and more dramatic in his facial expressions.

He also tried his toes while he was there!

Jackie let out a high pitched scream and covered his mouth with his fists. his squirming became even more frantic as he tried to kick the claw off his sensitive feet.

It appeared that Jackie was ticklish just about everywhere!

And lastly, Jamie revisited his armpit! With a restraint, or course...

Jamie had lifted Jackie's arm above his head, and started clawing and prodding at Jackie's exposed armpit.

"NOHOHOHOHOHO! NAHAHAHAHAT AGAIN! PLEHEHEHEHEASE! IHIHIHIT'S SOHOHOHOHO BAHAHAHAHAD!" Jackie pleaded. It was here that Jamie decided to let up on the man, because he was just making fun of his fear of spiders! Not full on tickle torturing him! He removed the claw fingers, placed them aside and stepped back to give Jackie some space. But that extra space didn't do anything except exist. That meant that no matter what, Jackie would've broken the space between them anyway.

"You shouldn't have done that..." Jackie warned with a big, evil smirk on his face. Jamie's small smile had turned into a paranoid frown, as he realized what might be coming for him.

"Do you know just how bad that tickled? You practically brought a gun to a sword fight. And now..." Jackie trailed off as he reached for the claws. "...you're gonna know how it feels..." Jackie concluded with an evil smirk, as he put the last claw onto his dominant hand.

Before Jackie could launch his revenge attack, One of the finger claws fell off his fingers. Both Jackie and Jamie looked down at the fallen claw, before making eye contact with each other again.

"How the hell did you keep these on you?" Jackie asked, both curious and surprised. Jamie giggled at the question. "I'll need to tape these claws onto my fingers...Which means you get a few seconds to run and hide, my little lee." Jackie teased with an evil voice. With no second spared, Jamie took off running. He ran around the house, looking around for a place to hide. As he ran, he flew by a closet. Skirting to a halt, he pulled the door open, and shut it as quickly, but quietly as he possibly could. he sat onto a shelf in the closet, and listened carefully for any footsteps.

When no footsteps were heard, he let out a big sigh of relief. He was hidden and safe for a few minutes. Gosh...Why did he think that teasing him and tickling him would get him off Scott free?! Gosh, he felt like an idiot. Though, hearing the laughter from Jackie, was kinda worth it. Jackie had such an energetic laugh! His laugh alone, could make a group of sociopaths laugh along with him. It was THAT contagious! Even thinking of his laugh was making him laugh...dammit. He had to cover his mouth to stop the giggles from leaking through. Though, he had to worry more about making physical sounds, than making verbal sounds. One wrong move or loud noise, and he might be done for.

Or so he thought...

Out of nowhere, Jamie just about jumped 10 feet at the sound of loud, rapid knocking against the closet door. The door quickly opened and sure enough, Jackie was on the other side and ready to pounce. Jamie covered his face with both hands, curled in on himself at the sight of Jackie, and curled even further in when he watched Jackie wiggle his clawed fingers. Jackie pulled Jamie out of the closet by his legs, and started his tickle attack right there.

He decided to imitate the skittery spider fingers Jamie had done on him, on his stomach first. He remembered it felt very tickly with his hands, so he couldn't imagine how tickly it would feel with the claws involved. Jamie's mouth was open, and letting out quiet laughter as he squirmed away from the claws. But even when he squirmed away, the claws would follow him and cover him in more tickles. It seemed like there was no escaping those evil claws.

Jackie decided to move around a little bit, and tickle his sides for a bit. The claws started skittering at the left side first. Jamie reacted by curling into the tickling and laying onto his left side. If it weren't for Jackie's quick reflexes, he most likely would've gotten the claws stuck under Jamie's left side. But, he didn't! So, he took advantage of that by skittering the claws onto Jamie's exposed right side. Surprisingly, the right side gave him a lot more of a reaction than the left side did. When the left side was tickled, all he did was squirm towards it. But when the right side was tickled, Jamie had thrown his head back, and started assaulting the couch with his feet and fists. His right side was doing everything he could to stop the claws, but of course, failing entirely.

"Do you happen to be more ticklish on your right side?" Jackie asked casually, as if Jamie wasn't laughing in front of him. Jamie stopped his hands and used them to answer.

'yes! more tickles right side!' Jamie signed, his grammar slightly off, thanks to the tickling affecting is ability to think straight. Jackie chuckled at the funny grammar, and smirked as a teasy phrase came to mind.

"'Yes, more tickles right side'? Well, if you say so!" Jackie announced, before tickling the left side with his average fingers and increasing the skittering of his clawed fingers. Jamie's squirming increased ten fold, his feet kicking madly as his laughter turned into cackles. The feeling of slightly sharp paper pokes against one of his worst spots, was driving him absolutely insane. he had re-continued punching the couch with both his hands, and a large, toothy smile had taken over his lips. While tickling him, Jackie couldn't help but notice the adorable dimples Jamie was showing to the world.

"Look at those adorable dimples! I could squish them! Squish, squish, squish!" Jackie teased in a high pitched voice, removing his normal hand to lightly squeeze his dimples. Jamie's face started to turn a hue of red as he stopped his punching fists to cover his face. "Awwww! Is de wittle tickwish boy embawassed?" Jackie whispered in Jamie's ear, using baby talk to be more teasy. Jackie watched as Jamie's face grew darker and spread to his ears and neck. "AWWWW! He IS! How ADORABLE! Say, what would happen if I tickled your neck?" Jackie asked aloud, before removing his clawed hand from his right side. He used the index clawed finger to scratch the side of his neck first. Jamie's shoulders shot up, and his head curled towards the claw, to trap it and attempt to stop the tickling. But the claw stayed there, scratching mercilessly.

Then, Jackie moved his clawed finger under Jamie's chin, and lightly scratched there. Jamie's chin curled into the top of his chest, and kept his shoulders raised to stop the claw at all costs. But, despite all his attempts, he couldn't stop the claw. The claw just kept on scratching, and scratching, and scratching...and scratching...

Till finally, it stopped. It finally stopped. Jamie took a moment to increase his breathing, so he could make up for all the energy he had lost. Jackie smiled and watched him, completely hypnotized by how adorable he looked, all tired and flustered beyond belief.

"So: You gonna help me take care of those creepy crawlies?" Jackie asked. Jamie took in a few more breaths, before nodding his head.

'Yes. I will help you get rid of those spiders.' Jamie replied, signing the word 'spiders' in a teasy motion one last time. Jackie stuttered at the sight, but let it go and stood back up.

'follow me.' Jamie ordered, before going to the sink. Once there, he opened a corner cupboard, and pulled out a jug of vinegar. Handing it to Jackie, Jamie walked over to the bathroom, while Jackie followed suit. Jamie pulled a dollar store spray bottle out of the closet, removed the lid from the vinegar jug, and poured some vinegar into the bottle. Lastly, Jamie topped it up with some water, placed the lid on, and rapidly shook it with his hands.

"What are you going to do with that?" Jackie asked. Jamie let a wide smirk grow onto his lips, before pointing the end of the spray bottle at Jackie's face.

Jackie's hands immediately shot up to cover his face. "HEY! DON'T YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT SPRAYING ME WITH THAT!" Jackie threatened. Jamie laughed before pointing it away from him.

'I would never.' Jamie replied, before walking over to Jackie's room. 'Where is it?' Jamie asked. Jackie pointed under his bed.

Jamie followed Jackie's finger to the hole at the bottom of the wall, and lifted his eyebrows in surprise. there was a big collection of adult and baby spiders crawling around a small hole in the bottom of the wall. Walking up and kneeling to the target, Jamie pointed the spray bottle at the hole, and pulled the trigger once, twice, a third, a fourth, and a few more sprays around the hole. When hit with a whirlwind of vinegar water, all of the spiders piled into their hole, cowering away from the terrible scent. Lastly, to end it all off, Jamie grabbed a rock from Jackie's room, sprayed some vinegar water onto it, and placed it in front of the hole to prevent them from coming in again.

'This'll be fine till we get the hole fixed.' Jamie explained.

Jackie gave Jamie a big hug. "Thank you. Thank you so much." Jackie said, relieved for his room to be spider-free once again.

Just to end things off in a funny way, Jamie skittered his fingers under Jackie's sides.

"AAAH! HEHEHEHEY! YOHOHOHOHOU AHAHAHAHASSHOHOHOHOLE!" Jackie reacted, resting his head against Jamie's shoulder as he pushed Jamie's hands away.

'Sorry, sorry, sorry. I couldn't resist.' Jamie replied as he laughed at the reaction. Jackie narrowed his eyes, and stared the man up and down.

"I don't think you are...not one bit..." Jackie replied, before turning Jamie and wrapping his non-dominant hand around Jamie. "...And may I just remind you that I have the CLAAAAAWWW?" Jackie teased evilly, before starting yet another tickle fight.
