TENNA HEADCANONS I LOVE TV!!!

If Toby Fox didn’t want Tenna to inspire so many tword thoughts he shouldn’t have made the most switch character ever.

Tenna the kind of guy to make a whole tickling-themed board with a physical challenge where he gets to be the tickle monster, then run in fear the second he so much as senses that the tables might get turned.  This man cannot take what he dishes out at all.

He delights in tickling people — he loves hearing their laugh, watching their adorable squirming.  It’s a fact of life that small things are cute, and it’s not his fault that he’s (usually) bigger than everyone!

He grows when he’s happy, so you best believe he’s scooping his victims up with one hand and tickling them with the other.

Like I said he loves being the tickle monster but he can’t handle being the victim of one.

His laugh starts similar to the one most people hear: loud and bouncy and boisterous and from the chest, but as it goes on it quickly devolves.  Static starts to intermix with it, making him even choppier and squeakier.

His squirrels and shrieks sound like microphone feedback.  If you even care.

Tenna gets small when he’s sad which is great for cheer-up tickles.  He’s not used to being the one on the other end of getting scooped up so he tends to panic.  He will reassume normal size when he gets cheered up though so watch out for that.

Plus side of being big is that it makes him harder to tickle.  Downside of being big is that if someone does succeed he has to be extra careful to not hurt them by flinging or shaking them off.  A lot of the time he just ends up lying down and taking it because he’d rather do that than accidentally hurt an employee.

I had to draw something for this BIG BRAINED thought from this post!!!

Poor Tenna, getting wrecked by such a little gremlin! That’s what he gets for trusting the Spam man to behave, *hehehe*

Will he let Spamton ride him again if he asks? ….Probably

Minors DNI please

[clowntiggles]

Imagine being stuck in one of Tenna’s physical challenges and he decides on “try not to laugh.”

Fine! That’s fine!

Then he hits you with this look.

You will not be watching the funniest home videos.

deltarune chapter 3 spoilers

Tenna ultimate switch tickle monster REAL!!!

He seems to reaaaally love making everyone happy. Like he gets Upset and has Issues over how everyone in Kris' family left & stopped gathering at the TV every holiday :(... Everyone is sad and upset now, there are no more smiles... (i will stop there bc otherwise i'll get into his Issues and Problems). So he seems reaaally obsessed with everyone laughing and smiling.

His attacks, when you fight him, are literally stars going across the screen with biiiig smiles whilst recorded crowd laughter plays. He can also very easily teleport you and the others onto any stage. He has stages themed around specific things with COSTUMES (Kitchen minigame with chef costumes, music stage minigame with rockstar costumes, etc). We seee the potential here, riiiight? Tickle themed minigame....

Also, like i said, Tenna shrinks suuuper tiny when he's sad. Can you imagine you say no to him tickling you, and then he just shrinks like "oh.......... okay.........." and then you're like "ugh fine ok only a little" and suddenly he's back to his HUGE ASS REGULAR SIZE all like "YAAAAAAAAAY!!!!" and suddenly you regret this A Lot. Because imagine if he teleported you two to the "tickle torture" chamber (he doesn't actually torture you, it's just called like that for the theatrics),

Also, you have these mini quizzes with a limited time to answer them, when you get them wrong, you take damage. Imagine....... you get more tickly hands on you each time you answer wrong... or maybe you get tickled even longer. He also sometimes summons his hired goons. Imagine he calls for a goon, only to tickle them silly to show off to you what will happen if you lose the minigame or something.

That's not to mention the TEAASING. "THERE'S that smile! Look a that, a genuine, happy smile! Now isn't that better? Muuuch better! I knew yoou had it in you to laugh! And what a wonderful laught it is, yes indeed! Your laughter is a dream come true! You're having so much fun, aren't you?"

OR

"Hmm, no no, sorry, this game isn't over until *you* laugh."

Because he has a fucking. Fun-O-meter in his show. to show off how much fun everyone is having. tickling you until the fun-o-meter is full.||

The people voted for a lee!Tenna drabble, thus it shall be delivered. No title because I can't think of one, unfortunately.

Ler!Reader, Lee!Tenna (strictly platonic)

As a staff member of the TV studio and assistant to Tenna, you've come to notice a lot of things about your boss. One of those discoveries is absolutely silly, and of course, you can't help but take advantage.

It was an accidental discovery, really. For both of you.

Preparing to go on the air was always an event. Tenna was someone who wanted to look his best at every possible moment, between his clothes, his screen being clean and polished, right down to his physical mannerisms. He carried himself in a meticulous way, always wanting the best for the audience.

But sometimes, like today...

"No... no, it's still off! How is it still off!?" He was currently looking in a mirror, seeming to have a fit over his signature red suit.

...It was more difficult.

Your boss could be temperamental at times, but hey, who in show business wasn't? The poor costuming Shadowguys frowned and saxophone-ed dejectedly as the TV star continued looking himself over.

"That wrinkle... did nobody iron this-!? You're both FIRED!"

The Shadowguys made a saxophone sound of shock, before frowning and deflating even further. You did not react, because you already knew what came next.

"W-Wait... no, sorry..." Tenna flipped on a dime, starting a silly dance of some kind. "You're hired!"

The Shadowguys perked up, now smiling and making a pleased saxophone note.

You paused. Wait for it...

"Now, go get this ironed! We're on in five! Hurry!" He tossed his suit jacket at one of them, the cloth draping over the silhouetted form as they both ran off. The door shut, and you both remained.

Alone. Silent.

Until, he sighed heavily, shoulders drooping and antenna lowering. His blank screen turned towards you from over one shoulder. "...Oh, it's... a little difficult, you know? Trying to make everything run smooth, trying to keep everyone happy... ah, you never seem too upset, though."

"I understand your patterns, sir." You set your clipboard aside, "I understand how tight your schedule is. I think... it's possible that you've stretched yourself too thin."

"...Maybe. But the show must go on. Even... just reruns, it must continue."

You approached, standing next to him. It was... odd, seeing him without his red jacket. The white button-up beneath it almost made him look... incomplete. The two of you stood, side-by-side, simply staring into the mirror in silence for a long time. Eventually, his head hung low again, antenna drooping even lower.

You moved, standing in front of him. "Hey. They still love you out there, in the audience. They think you're fun. Chin up." You smiled kindly at him, reaching over and physically moving his head back upwards.

"...Hmm..." He hummed, "You have a point. It... it feels different without the family among them."

You've heard him mention this 'family' a few times, but... he never really elaborated on that. He's made references to them, but no one's ever seen them. You supposed there was a reason, but never pushed. If he wanted to, he would have done so himself, right?

"...Maybe you should try and straighten yourself up a bit. You might feel better." You reached out to straighten up his shirt at the shoulders. When he doesn't stop you, you straighten out some of the wrinkles in the fabric, hands running along the shirt to smooth it out.

"See?" You smiled at him, fixing his tie, "Isn't that- what's wrong?"

You didn't notice just how stiff he was while you were helping straighten his clothes out. His mouth looked wobbly, a small blush on his face as his arms sat like stone to the side. Did... you go a step too far, here...?"

"S-Sir-? Are you-"

"YES! Quite alright, I assure you!" Tenna's still got that wobbly smile on his face, voice a little... uneven. "Just- uh, didn't really expect that-"

"Sorry, I was just trying to-"

"Hah! No apologies necessary! Just a bit of surprise and suspense to keep your audience on the edge of his seat!"

You laughed a bit at that. Of course, he just had to ham it up a bit here, huh? You moved your hands back down, going to fix his shirt again. "Well, alright, but I'm not the host anyone is here for. That's you!"

Whatever he was gonna say next died on his tongue suddenly with a loud squeak and violent flinch as you pinched the fabric at his sides.

Neither of you moved for several seconds; you staring wide-eyed in surprise, and him sporting a wobbly smile and that blush again.

You couldn't help but double over with a small laugh, one arm wrapping around your stomach. Oh, that was an adorable reaction that you weren't expecting.

"H-Huh-!? What was that? Hope nobody was rolling the cameras on that-" Tenna rubbed at his sides in visible confusion.

You covered your mouth with a hand as you giggled at his indignant confusion. "S-Sorry, I didn't realize you were ticklish. I would've been more careful if I knew."

"E-Eh-?" His further confusion only earned another giggle, "What on earth did you do!? That was weird!"

You almost started laughing harder, before realizing that he was serious. He... had no idea. Such a big reaction, and he has absolutely no idea. Almost... kind of tragic.

"...Uh, well, it looks like I tickled you on accident, Tenna. My bad... you, uh, didn't seem like you knew?"

"W-Well... ah, first time for everything, it seems!" You've never seen him so flustered, "Can't say it's ever happened before! Seems fun. So, uh, let's-"

He paused as he realized your hands returned to his sides. Why did this make him feel nervous? "...Hey."

His sides were suddenly squeezed, the sensation making his screen static out with a loud laugh, his hands wrapping around your wrists as he flinched back. A second squeeze to his sides made him crumple inwards, thankfully landing on a nearby chair (or did you move it when he wasn't looking?)

He could only look up in anticipation as you boxed him in. Oh now, usually he was the one large and in charge like this, and how quickly the tables had just turned. Mike, don't record this-

"H-Hey-! Hey-!" His voice was choked by laughter as you moved a hand over to poke his stomach experimentally, "Cuhuhuhut it out-! This ihihihis gonna- EEK-! Go agahahainst your contr-ACT-!"

His voice cut off, falling back into laughter with a short squeal when pinched at his ribs next, his arms trying to fold inwards protectively. Even when one hand wormed its way under his arm, he still struggled to protect against the strange feeling of your fingers hooking in. You had no idea he was this sensitive, or that he had a more natural-sounding laugh than the one he used onstage.

"Aww, I think it's cute." You skittered your fingers against his neck, watching him somehow fold further into himself with a small squeak, "I didn't know you had this in you, big guy."

You were happy just to study his reactions. As he laughed, squirming away from any prodding and squeezing, his screen kept flickering back to static or showing different stations, and despite his own hands grabbing your wrists, he wasn't really... trying to stop you? It was hard to tell how he was feeling about this.

"...You okay, boss? I'm not going too far, am I?"

You slowed down, giving him some room when he didn't respond immediately. His screen slowly recovered from the static, the buzzing mixing with the dying-off giggling as he slowly calmed down, antenna askew. You reached up and pushed one back into place, only to watch him jolt again.

"A-Alright, I think th-that's enough, let's roll the credits..." He pushed your hand away, surprisingly gently.

He sat there silently, and you couldn't help but apologize quietly. Maybe this was too far-? If... if this really was something unfamiliar for him, maybe you did just overwhelm him on accident?

"...Are you-?"

"Oh, that? Don't worry about that! A little odd, but... kind of fun! The family used to do that, and I never did understand it... I think I do, now! Bringing a smile and a laugh to someone else!"

Well, at least he didn't seem mad?

Upon hearing a saxophone trill, you turned and made eye contact with one of the Shadowguys. The one not holding his freshly-ironed suit gave a thumbs-up. You thanked them both quietly as you took it, offering it to Tenna.

He looked more... like himself when wearing it. As he looked in the mirror, he looked less stressed and more confident, too. "That's more like it! There's the host they know and love!"

"You're on in two, according to Mike." You picked back up your clipboard, "Oh, I think they missed a spot?"

"Huh-? Where-"

"Here," You poked his ribs, watching him jolt, "And over here, too."

He chuckled, pushing your hand away from his side. "A-All right, all right, come on, now! Don't leave me too flustered for the audience-!"

"Sorry, had to get one last one in. Go get 'em, big guy."

"Fun new trick for the whole family, huh? You realize this challenge can have two players, right?" He gives you a sly grin, which you return.

Hey, if it helped lower his stress to have a new game to play between sets, then so be it. It least it was more fun than the quizzes that you sometimes stumbled into.

Small headcanon for Tenna:

His antennas are HELLA sensitive and get him all giggly.

AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO THINKS THIS????

Not the only one. Definitely not :3c

AWUGHIWUWUW

Can you draw Tenna being tickled?

I sure can! :3

Initially i saw Tenna as only a ler… but seeing so many adorable drawings of him getting wrecked changed my mind a little! (Though he’s still ler-leaning imo)

Anyhows, here’s the tv man!! Upset with low ratings, a couple of his employees took it upon themselves to cheer him up <333
