Ohhh, you asked, and now you shall get the spam.

THEY ARE. SO CUTE!?

I headcanon them as being friends in school but reconnecting in their early twenties in uni (and then they get married obviously). They’re very different in many ways (with Oliver being more athletic and Percy more academically-inclined, which tbh is one of my favorite dichotomies) but they’re also both very motivated and driven people, and I <3 them together. (READ THIS FIC IF YOU HAVEN’T ALREADY.)

Also: they’re totally both ticklish, right? Like, obviously. Percy is very ticklish, particularly on his neck, ribs, and stomach. Much to his indignation, his siblings tend to be the hands-on type who use tickling as an annoying-sibling tactic, so its something he deals with quite often (though it’s different coming from Oliver). I think that Oliver’s ticklishness is much less known, especially because he tends to immediately come off as that-guy-with-the-singleminded-focus-on-Quidditch that people who don’t know him well have trouble looking past. However, he is ticklish, with his underarms and feet being the worst, and quite a few other spots that are mildly sensitive.

I see them as a couple who uses tickling when they know each other needs it and will be receptive of it; like, if one of them is stressed from schoolwork or Quidditch, respectively (stressed enough that they’d appreciate a distractor/stress relief, but not so stressed that they’re in don’t-touch-me-leave-me-alone-mode) then the other will tickle them. Or sometimes when they’re lying in bed or making out in a classroom together and just feel like being silly.

[#series: Loopy] Yeeeeeeeeeeee :)

hey, strings! I was going through some of your posts and came across the whole high ropes question stuff for your loopy verse and I’ve done it before! I can say this about them: if you get Dean up there, he’s gonna freeze up. People afraid of heights can do the easier courses for high ropes, but that is almost always the case anyway. I love it though! It doesn’t look like much but it can be a rush when you get up there, especially when you can barely feel your harness. (part 1)

(part 2) But if you need more info, I can assure you that it’s safe. Some places even have nets (besides the ones that you climb). Personally, my favorite ones are the rope bridges you have to cross and then the platforms that swing when you step on them (like at the playground, but much higher and you’re wearing a harness and a helmet).

[referenced post] YES! Yes, this is what I want to know! This is an excellent start, and if you’re willing/able to talk to me over messenger, I’d love to hear more, and/or have you on tap if I have questions! 

You are asking the WRONG PERSON, amiga. I absolutely looove wriggling my usually-keyboard-typing fingers over sensitive skin, and I also absolutely looove the feeling of those touches. BIG SHRUG

As far as Loopy ‘verse goes – best I can figure, Dean would start something for the sole (ha) purpose of getting retaliated upon. In the presence of another person, he’d much rather be laughing and squirming than doing just about anything else tbh. Cas, though... Cas has spent his life being a rule-follower, very straightedge, very boring. He’s got a rebellious streak; he just doesn’t know how to use it. The thought of making someone else lose control, while he keeps a tight hold on the reigns of the situation, gives him butterflies. If that someone is a strong, snappy, smooth-talking charmer who gives off a subtle “please wreck me, promise I’ll let you” je ne sais quoi, those butterflies multiply tenfold. He doesn’t care much for being made to squirm, but if nothing else, it gives him an excuse to wreak vengeance.

HECK YEAH

who’s the most ticklish character:

Gamora and Peter are equally ticklish, but Gamora will stab most people who try to tickle her, so Peter is the most ticklish one who actually gets tickled.

who’s the character that most people would assume is ticklish, but actually isn’t:

Rocket seems like he might, possibly, be ticklish, but he actually isn’t very ticklish at all (not to mention he constantly radiates “don’t touch me,” so anyone who isn’t crazy - i.e. anyone who isn’t Peter - usually isn’t willing to test it).

who’s the character that everyone gangs up on and tickles:

Peter

who’s the character that somehow knows everyone else’s tickle spots and reveals them to others:

Rocket (he likes blackmail)

who’s the character with one specific tickle spot that only one other person knows about:

Rocket will deny until the end of time that he’s ticklish but. The area underneath his chin is a little sensitive, a fact which only Groot is privy to.

who’s the most likely to win gang tickle wars:

Literally e v e r y o n e except Peter. Gamora, Drax, and Rocket are all so ruthless that any one of them could win (or punch each other before coming to an agreement to gang up on Peter instead), and Groot will just hover over them jumping in when he feels like it.

which character has a kink for tickling:

Peter has a tiny kink.

which character didn’t even know they were ticklish until another character tickled them:

Gamora had no idea that she was ticklish until Peter snuck up on her and tickle-attacked her (after which she immediately kicked him).

which two characters have tickle fights all the time:

I haven’t seen one come across my dash, but here’s a YouTube clip of the extended scene (a.k.a. basically every second of screen time he had). (The accent is even worse every time I hear it but WHO CARES.)

Since you're in that AU!Castiel mood, you should definitely listen to "Misanthropic Drunken Loner" by Days n Daze. That song kind of reminds me of a mix between this new Cas and the one from the other alternate universe from before.
