Miya&Mia's Tickletober Day 31 - Halloween

Neuvillette x Wriothesley

Collab with wonderful @otomiyaa

A/N: Last day of this fun event and of course we had to write something together! I had so much fun writing this with you, dear. Thank you for doing this with me! And also thank for doing such a challenging and fun list with me!

Summary: There's a All Hallow's Eve event in the Nation of Justice and The Duke has his own little informant, but why is he so serious?!

It was something not very common.

The words just wouldn't stop coming out of Neuvillette's mouth, and even though his voice was as monotone, serious and deep as ever, he sounded almost breathless, excited even, as he explained to Wriothesley everything there was to know about All Hallow's Eve, or at least Fontaine's version of that event. 

Wriothesley had stopped working to focus his full attention on Neuvillette while he enjoyed his tea. That little traveler and his companion had introduced Lady Furina to this autumn event that happened yearly in Mondstadt. Pumpkin carving, enchanted attractions, a weird game called apple bobbing, playing pranks, lots of candy and a lot more things which sounded appropriate for the Nation of Freedom, but certainly did not seem like something that could be celebrated in Fontaine. 

But, according to what Neuvillette said, everyone seemed very interested, and the streets at the Court of Fontaine were full of people, but also full of decorations that probably no one in the Nation of Justice had ever seen before.

Wriothesley almost felt the need to leave his office and see everything with his own eyes but… why was Neuvillette still so serious? 

"I see, it seems like a big celebration then," Wriothesley said kindly, smiling warmly at Neuvillette. "Did you get bored?" 

Neuvillette blinked and he tilted his head to the side, confused. "I just said it is quite interesting, why do you ask if I got bored?" 

“Hmm,” Wriothesley hummed, leaning over to grab one of the ghost-shaped cookies Neuvillette had brought him. He took a bite to eat it with his tea. The taste was rather bland, but he appreciated the effort. 

“Looking at your face, I can’t say whether you are reporting about a funeral or a festival,” Wriothesley admitted in all honesty. He took another bite of the cookie. 

“About a festival,” Neuvillette replied, still very serious. 

Wriothesley scanned the little basket with candies and snacks other than the cookies, and a couple of festive decorations Neuvillette had brought him so he could still enjoy the festival during his working hours. He reached for a funny hat, more like head decoration with a skeleton on it, and handed it to Neuvillette.

“This is for people to wear? Please put this on. It will make you look less serious.” 

Neuvillette did not budge, though a very subtle blush could be seen on his face. “I am afraid I must refuse.” 

“It’s a gift. You should accept it,” Wriothesley encouraged.

Neuvillette remained calm and serious. “With all due respect, Wriothesley. I gave it to you first. So, it is your gift.” 

Wriothesley chuckled. “Fine. Then I say, I would like you to wear my gift. At least it will look like you are having fun. Come on, Neuvillette. My lonely experience of All Hallow’s Eve from my office will not be complete unless you wear it.” 

Neuvillette stared at the silly hat. Then without responding to Wriothesley's funny request, he sighed and got up without even finishing his tea.

“I am afraid I should leave. Lady Furina must be waiting, now if you’ll excuse me -” 

Wriothesley got up quickly and tried to place the hat on Neuvillette’s head, but as expected, the Chief Justice was not one to fool with and snatched the thing from him and held it above his head.

“Do not,” he warned. Wriothesley smirked, watching the elegant Neuvillette with the silly skeleton hat high above his head. 

“Fine. I will not.” Instead without warning, he placed his hand on Neuvillette’s waist and squeezed slightly. 

Neuvillette's breath hitched in his throat and Wriothesley felt the muscles contracting under his touch as his arm lowered just a little. Neuvillette looked at him with slightly wide eyes.

"Do not," he warned again, his arm stubbornly up. "I am serious."

"That's exactly why I'm forced to do this, Monsieur Neuvillette," Wriothesley taunted, placing his other hand on the other side of Neuvillette's waist and squeezing. 

Neuvillette grunted, his hips lurching back as his free hand closed around one of Wriothesley's wrists. The Duke chuckled to himself and without another word, he started to squeeze Neuvillette's waist over and over. Neuvillette made a strangled sound and Wriothesley saw him gritting his teeth as he tried to twist away from between his hands. 

"Maybe if you show me a little smile, Neuvillette, I'll actually believe that you had fun?" He teased and giggled when Neuvillette shook his head desperately, refusing to talk back. "Or you can put the hat on, that's easier right?" 

“N-no I - ahhhh!” Neuvillette let out a most precious yelp when Wriothesley moved his hand up and squeezed just the right spot between his lower ribs. Neuvillette jolted in surprise and didn’t just drop his arm. He also dropped the hat. 

“Ooh?” Wriothesley watched the thing fall and looked back at Neuvillette, smirking.

“N-noho i-it was ahan accide-ahh! Don’t!” Neuvillette tried to fight his laughter as Wriothesley trapped him against his desk, both his hands now aiming for Neuvillette’s sides and tickling him ruthlessly. Neuvillette, who usually looked so cool and aloof, was now blushing and stuttering, making the cutest and strangest noises. 

“Wriahaha-Wriothehhesley! N-nohoho!” With each second Wriothesley dragged the playful moment, Neuvillette’s voice sounded louder. He went from restrained chuckles and giggles to soft little yelps and a nice and gentle sound Wriothesley could call laughter. He smiled. 

“Now this is more like it,” he said when Neuvillette was finally smiling. 

“Ahhahah!” Neuvillette turned and twisted, his hands reaching for Wriothesley's, but failing to pull them off.

It was fun to see Neuvillette trying to cover his smiling mouth with one of his hands, he was also trying to seal his lips again, but it was harder now that Wriothesley found that extremely sensitive spot on his lower ribs. 

He looked so pretty, his fair skin was adorably pink and his smile was so wide. Wriothesley couldn't lie, he always found an excuse to tickle Neuvillette just because he always got to see that beautiful expression on him.  

"L-Lehehehet mehehe gohoho!" He laughed beautifully, pushing Wriothesley's shoulder. "Thihihis ihihis chihihildihihish!"

Wriothesley chuckled, "you always say that when I do this," he said happily, "but hey at least you look happier, do you mind repeating everything you just said about the festival?"

"I c-cahahahan n-nahahat!" He squeaked when Wriothesley vibrated his fingers against his lower ribs. "Stohohahap tihihickling me thehehere!" 

"You can not?" Wriothesley asked, completely ignoring Neuvillette's pleading. "Then, what about wearing the hat? Sounds like a plan, Neuvillette?"

Neuvillette shook his head while sweet laughter continued to pour from his lips. 

“No? Hmm, alright then.” Wriothesley’s hands climbed up a bit further, his thumbs slipping under Neuvillette’s arms and digging into those armpits, a hidden goldmine Wriothesley would call them. Neuvillette let out a loud gasp and jerked with all of his body. 

“WAhhh nohoho!” Neuvillette laughed in the cutest way. Wriotheseley joined in with a laugh of his own when Neuvillette made such a violent movement as a reflex to the tickling that he managed to turn around, bending over Wriothesley’s desk, but the Duke was persistent and continued to tickle his sensitive underarms.

“No- not thehere! Ahahahah!” He flailed his arms when Wriothesley tickled his armpits mercilessly, knocking the basket he brought from the festival and sending its sweets, candies and decorations rolling and falling off the desk. 

Neuvillette’s efforts of trying to remain cool and calm were admirable, but right now he should just give in to the fact that he was adorable.

Wriothesley smiled fondly, pleased that in this position, Neuvillette wouldn’t be able to see how soft he could make him. 

“Not here? We could strike a deal, if you wear that little hat to the festival,” he suggested, glancing at the skeleton hat that lay on the floor between several other fallen items. 

“Buhuhut!” Neuvillette laughed, and Wriothesley could swear he was blushing. He stepped back and forced Neuvillette to turn back around so they were face to face again. He was indeed blushing, and there was a subtle trace of sparkly tears in his eyes. The sight made Wriothesley feel… things. He leaned in and kissed him. Not their first kiss, for the record. But definitely the first one in a while. 

“Hmmhehehe!” Neuvillette giggled when Wriothesley gently wiggled his fingers from his sides towards his tummy, poking the spot playfully. The Chief Justice was a breathless and flustered mess, and he tiredly caught Wriothesley’s tickly hands, failing to pry them off or to stop their wiggling fingers tickling his stomach.

“Wriothehehesley,” Neuvillette laughed breathlessly. 

“Hmm?” Wriothesley kissed his lips again, feeling a little greedy. “What is it?”

“I’ll wehehear the hahahat…," he said blushing and unable to keep from laughing when Wriothesley's fingers wiggled against his lower stomach. "O-Ohohonly if y-yohou stohop, thohough."

Wriothesley hummed in thought. He certainly wanted to see his serious Neuvillette wearing that ridiculous yet cute hat, but his finger still itched to draw out more of his wonderful and exquisite laughter, however, his lover was already out of breath and could barely stand on his own feet. 

He sighed heavily and he smiled when Neuvillette looked at him curiously. He surprised the Chief Judge by a sudden squeeze to his hips that had him squeaking and giggling before Wriothesley moved to pick the hat up and the basket with all those candies he still wanted to try.

"Very well, Monsieur Neuvillette," Wriothesley said, placing the hat between Neuvillette's hands. "Would you do me the favor?" 

Wriothesley wanted to laugh at Neuvillette's expression when he saw the hat in his hands. Disgust combined with horror and an adorable blush that spread from his cheeks to the tips of his eyebrows. He looked at Wriothesley and then at the hat and then at Wriothesley once more before quickly placing the hat on his head. 

Wriothesley thought he was going to laugh at the sight of Neuvillette, but his heart jumped in his chest and he could only think of how adorable Neuvillette looked. His eyes softened and he gently cupped Neuvillette's face in his hands to plant a kiss on his lips. 

"Why didn't you want to wear this?" He asked after leaving Neuvillette breathless with a heated kiss, his crooked hat gently fixed by Wriothesley. "You look so adorable I might pass away this instant."

If Wriothesley didn't know better, he'd say Neuvillette was pouting. “.....” Neuvillette answered with silence. He just had this cute embarrassed look on his face, so Wriothesley kissed him again.

“You look great. A true All Hallow's Eve enjoyer.” 

Neuvillette nodded shyly and turned away. “I should leave,” he said, and Wriothesley could see that even his ears had turned red. Aw, so flustered he was. Wriothesley reached for his hand, grabbed it and pulled him right back. Neuvillette gasped when Wriothesley once again caught him with his eyes, and he smirked.

“Wear it until the end of the festival, alright? I have my sources up there, so I will know whether Monsieur Neuvillette walked around according to the theme… or not,” he said teasingly, and he wiggled his fingers against Neuvillette’s hip again. A soft strangled noise left his lips, and Neuvillette quickly managed to disguise it as a cough.

“Y-yes, uhunderstood,” he giggled nervously. Ah damn. He was so cute. "Will you not… go up to see?"

Wriothesley smiled, "I'll probably join you after I finish some things up," he said, grabbing Neuvillette's hand and kissing the back of it. "You should go now, however, and show Lady Furina your All Hallow's Eve spirit, hmm? Also, promise me you'll come back here if I don't go up."

Neuvillette nodded solemnly, his lips slightly curved in a shy smile. "I will."

"I am planning on tickling you again, too. I know you love it so much."

Neuvillette's eyes widened and he pulled at his hand still held by Wriothesley. "I do not enjoy that little childish and rather silly game of yours!" 

Wriothesley laughed, kissing Neuvillette's hand again before letting him go. "Yes, yes, yes. Of course. Now go and don't forget to wear your hat and bring some more of those cookies, please?"

"... Fine. I will see you later, Wriothesley."

"Be careful on your way, Monsieur Neuvillette."

As he watched Neuvillette walk away, he felt a small pang in his heart. Maybe it would have been better to keep Neuvillette here with him, wearing his adorable hat and listening to his beautiful laugh, but he could tell Neuvillette really enjoyed the festival and who was he to keep him from having fun? 

Ah… maybe he should join him later after all, just for fun!

[buckybarnesevents]

IT'S HERE!!!! ShrinkyClinks Double Bang is here with sign ups starting next week!

We've put together an event FAQ/breakdown for you here and also under the cut. This will look very familiar to any Bang participants, but in case this is your first time, we have tried to make the below information as clear and as detailed as possible so you know what to expect.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW/FAQs:

1. What is ShrinkyClinks? 

“ShrinkyClinks” is defined generally as Winter Soldier Bucky with pre-serum Steve. For the purposes of this Bang, it can also be a “Beefy Bucky”/a Bucky with similar attributes and a “Small Steve”/a Steve with similar attributes. This means it can be canon, canon-adjacent or -divergent, or an AU. 

We ask that you do your best to stick with these attributes, keeping in mind that there are loads of other events for other Bucky/Steve variations and this event is intended to specifically bring more ShrinkyClinks content to the world. If you’re unsure if your idea fits or want to discuss anything, please reach out to a mod.

2. How does a Double Bang work?

In a Bang, a writer submits their fic idea to be claimed by an artist. A Reverse Bang is when the artist submits their work to be claimed by a writer. For the purpose of this event, a Double Bang, we will be accepting submissions for both. 

All submissions are kept ANONYMOUS so in the spirit of the event, please do not post your work anywhere or announce which piece(s) is/are yours. This is a great opportunity to meet new people in the fandom, work with someone new, etc. We will not have a dedicated space for writers vs. artists to discuss prior to claims since this event allows for you to sign up for both roles. 

After claims (August 19th), you are allowed to chat, post snips, and promote your WIPs all you want. You can go nuts in the event channel on Discord or in the creator’s lounge channels. 

3. What criteria do I need to participate in this event? 

Most importantly is that you understand we are a safe space for creators – there is absolutely NO shaming (kink shaming, character bashing, criticism of works, etc.). Respect your fellow creators and do your best to encourage each other! 

Furthermore, this is a collaboration. Please read the Wants and DNW’s of each slide before committing to claim it, and keep an open line of communication with your partner(s) to ensure that all of your interests and hard work are represented in your final creation. 

The bang will be broken up into NSFW and SFW sections, however, this is an 18+ event due to the nature of some of these works and we cannot moderate/block/control what you may or may not accidentally see. We will, however, make it as clear as possible between these ratings.

4. What can I sign up as? What are the different roles?

Writer: you will either (1) submit a slide/piece to be claimed or (2) intend to claim a piece during claims period and provide writing

Artist: you will either (1) submit a slide/piece to be claimed or (2) intend to claim a piece during claims period and provide art

Pinch Hitter: you are essentially an “on-call” writer or artist. By selecting this role, you agree to be included in future emails throughout the event if a fic or art piece needs to be claimed due to unforeseen circumstances

Beta & Support: you would like to specifically offer beta-reading services, cheerleading, brainstorming, characterization help or sensitivity reading. Please provide what you are willing to provide from this list, or anything else we have missed. 

SUBMISSION MINIMUMS

Art:

Original Art 

Manips - (must be skillfully and heavily edited so they are unrecognizable from the source material, we’re not trying to get sued her)

Podfic - at least 2,000 words recorded 

Fanvid - at least 2 minutes

A craft that can be photographed or scanned

*Moodboards or playlists can be included in the final submission but not as standalone art for claims. There is no maximum for this event. 

Kam (@mxaether) is your lead mod for art concerns. 

Fic:

There is a 3,000 word minimum for the ShrinkyClinks Double Bang 2023. There is no maximum for this event.

HR (@buckyismybicycle) is your lead mod for writing concerns.

HOW DOES IT WORK? 

On July 2, you will sign up for the event using this form. Please read through both the sign up form and the FAQs/rules above thoroughly.

On August 5, you will SUBMIT your Slide(s) for previews here. Please use this template. If you are submitting more than one work, you can put all your slides on the same slideshow and we will review each slide. While we do not require the completed work, please have enough information/enough of the art done for this to help match you up. 

On August 12, you will be emailed a preview of all the works submitted (so please ensure you enter your correct/active email). This preview will include both fic and art submissions, and both SFW and NSFW. These will be marked accordingly. It is suggested that you think about which slides you want to claim and in what order. On the claims form, you will be asked to enter in your first, second, third and optional additional choices. 

It is recommended you give some variety in case your first choice(s) are already claimed. If all of your choices are already taken, you will receive an email immediately telling you to re-submit your choices. 

On August 19, CLAIMS WILL OPEN! Claims open at 6:30pm EST. For your local time, please see here or see the converter at end of the Word document. Claims will be made through this form.

Claims go on a first come, first serve basis. If you are not around for claims, you can have a proxy - this is someone who will claim on your behalf. They will enter in their own email address and own name and advise us they are just a proxy assisting you with claiming.

There will be two check-in dates at 1 month intervals: September 23 and October 21. Check-ins are very easy and both can be done here. We essentially want to know (1) how’s it going? (2) do you need help? Check-ins are a good time for your team to assess where you’re at, if you think any help might be needed, etc. 

You should aim to have your collaboration done by November 5, 2023 and more or less ready to post. Check with your partner who will be posting the work to which platform - Tumblr, AO3, etc. We recommend that you embed your artwork(s) in your posts. While having a “banner” or “title card”. This will be the final check in before posting week to ensure you’re ready to go or if you need a mod to help with something. 

Between November 12 - 18, you will post your completed collaboration! Please submit your masterpost/completed work using this form. We will be using this, and our “@” mentions to compile our final masterlist.

AO3: AO3 Collection

Tumblr: tag us at @buckybarnesevents 

STILL WORRIED?

What if I sign up, and then need to drop out or don’t want to claim something? 

If you sign up and do not claim anything because you don’t vibe with it, not a problem, it happens! 

If you sign up and do claim something but then need to drop out, just let us know as soon as possible. This is a key point of our monthly check-ins, to ensure you’re on track or if you’re feeling like you can’t meet the deadline. This is also where our lovely pinch-hitters can step in and claim the piece you’ve been working on so that your partner(s) can continue in the event. 

If you sign up and you’re running behind but still think you can complete your work(s) with a few additional days, please speak to a mod about an extension, within reasonable limits. 

We are open to hearing any concerns at any time and there is almost always a solution, so do not fret. With that being said, we do ask that you sign up only if you are fairly confident or certain that you can commit to the event. 

I’m an event junkie – can I use this piece as a fill for another event? 

Yes, if your other event allows this as well, you are welcome to cross-post to any and all other events. The only caveat is that you cannot post your work before our posting date (ie: you cannot post your finished product before our posting period of Nov 12 - 18 or without your team’s consent. If you really want to post before Nov 12th in order to make another deadline, please speak with a mod for an exception.)

I don’t have Tumblr or AO3

Not to worry - these are just where Bucky Barnes Events operates out of so it’s easiest for us to reblog on Tumblr or have a Collection on  AO3. If you are posting your fic elsewhere, that’s perfectly fine! Just submit the link through our submission form so we can still include you within our masterlist and do a simple Tumblr post for you. 

4. Does this have to be Bucky/Steve?

For the purposes of this Bang and in the spirit of ShrinkyClinks, yes, your work should focus on the relation between Beefy Bucky and Smol Steve, whether it’s platonic, romantic, or even if they’re rivals!! Their relationships and interactions should be front and centre. You can, however, include side pairings, previous relationships, or even polyamorous relationships so long as your spotlight remains on Bucky and Steve.

CONCLUSION:

The most important thing is to have fun! As always, please let a mod know if you have any questions, concerns, or need some clarification! 

Happy Creating,

Your Mods,

HR & Kam

The reason | HuaLian

A/N: Another lovely collab with beautiful @otomiya-tickles! We've been missing our boys very much *sobs*

Summary: During some steamy times with Xie Lian, Hua Cheng reminiscences about the past when his relationship with Xie Lian was just starting and somehow, his lover kept squirming and jerking away from Hua Cheng's touches whenever they tried to get intimate!

They're trying to get n$fw, but they can't. So no worries about that!

Words: 1.7k

A smile crept to his lips when he felt the warm skin trembling under his touch. He was used to it by now, endeared by the way goosebumps followed the path where he slid his fingers, but he certainly didn't feel as confident and endeared from the very beginning. On the contrary, feeling the milky skin tremble and jump under his touch made him feel scared, sad even. It would make him think that this wonderful being was shaking in fear and disgust at the thought of being touched by someone as lowly as Hua Cheng; jerking away from the touch that would decrease his cultivation.

In the start, Xie Lian would be okay with kissing, his knees always growing weak and his cheeks turning pink as wonderful little sighs escaped from between his lips, Hua Cheng drinking them all into his mouth; he would unconsciously pull Hua Cheng closer to him, pulling at his clothes in a frenzy, something that even made Hua Cheng feel shy.

The problem started once they were on the bed, their bodies naked; Xie Lian shivering as his warm skin made contact with Hua Cheng's cold body, letting out gasps of bliss that made Hua Cheng's head spin. Hua Cheng's gentle hands would gently cup Xie Lian's waist and the god would jerk heavily with a strangled noise.

Hua Cheng would apologize like crazy and Xie Lian would swear that he was okay, but that kind of interaction lasted many nights, making it almost impossible for both of them to feel actual pleasure, feeling awkward and a bit too self-conscious about the other, instead.

It was only a matter of time until one of them had to speak up and it was Hua Cheng himself:

"Gege," he started after the umpteenth time that Xie Lian jerked away from Hua Cheng's touch with some kind of soft cry. "If you don't feel comfortable with me, we can just not-

"It tickles!" Xie Lian blurted out, red petals blooming across his fair cheeks.

Hua Cheng widened his eye, feeling something swell in where his heart should be beating. He stared at Xie Lian and Xie Lian stared back at him, both not daring to speak.

"W-What?"

"It tickles!" Xie Lian squeaked out again. "I'm very ticklish, s-so I can't help but move away when San Lang touches me because it tickles!"

Hua Cheng hadn't laughed so hard in a long time. So that was it, huh? Xie Lan was certainly very sensitive, after all, mere cobwebs were enough to have him cackling breathlessly, now that he remembered, but who would've thought that this sensitivity would be so present even during those kinds of moments. He couldn't fall more in love with Xie Lian, everything he did and everything he said made Hua Cheng feel like he was being blessed after so many years of pain.

After that, things went better and they enjoyed their intimate time together even more, however...

"T-Tihihickles... S-Sahan Lahahang," Xie Lian giggled, covering his mouth with the hand that had the red ribbon wrapped around his finger.

Hua Cheng chucked, "as sensitive as always, gege."

"It's because San Lang is touching me too lightly- ahahaha! Dohon't do thahat!" He laughed out when Hua Cheng scribbled his fingers against the tender spot underneath his ribs.

"Oh? Does His Highness want me to be rougher? So dirty, gege," he teased, making Xie Lian blush even more.

“Thahat’s not what I - ahahahhh! San Lang! Whah!” Xie Lian’s laughter increased as soon as Hua Cheng transitioned from light scribbling to digging in, the smile on his own lips growing.

“Not what you… what? Gege?” he asked casually. He liked how warm and soft Xie Lian’s skin felt under his fingers as he wiggled them against his beautiful ribs, his cute underarms, and - oh right. His underarms were quite a good spot. He chuckled when Xie Lian’s laughter grew louder and he felt him kick his legs adorably.

“SAH-Sahahan Lang! Y-you’re doing ihihit on purpohohose!” Hua Cheng smiled at this.

“Am I now? What do you take me for, gege? I would never,” he teased in response. He stilled his fingers so they came to rest in Xie Lian’s armpits, and he watched him fondly.

“There. Better?” he asked. Xie Lian giggled and shook his head with this cute blush on his face.

“S-still ticklehes! T-take them out!” he laughed. Hua Cheng felt Xie Lian’s arms squeeze his fingers in there, and he shook his head.

“I’m afraid I can’t. Not if you don’t move your arms,” he said with the sound of almost genuine concern in his voice. Xie Lian pressed his lips together and tried to hold back his laughter. They were both half naked and yet this was their current business. Not that Hua Cheng minded at all.

He loved seeing Xie Lian like this: carefree, playful and happy. The rosy blush across his cheeks looked childish in a way that made Hua Cheng think that there was no being more adorable than Xie Lian.

Belly against belly, Hua Cheng felt Xie Lian's held-in giggles and he chuckled tenderly, his fingers twitching slightly under Xie Lian's arms, but his lover giggled brightly and shook his head, pressing his arms even tighter to his sides.

"Can I have my hands back, gege?" Hua Cheng asked teasingly.

"I c-cahan't! You're g-gohohoing to tihickle me mohore!"

Hua Cheng laughed. Uh-oh, Xie Lian saw right through him, but that was not a big deal, if Xie Lian was the most adorable being to ever exist, Hua Cheng was the most mischievous.

"Ah, don't worry, Your Highness," he said with a dangerous smirk, his eye twinkling. "This humble believer will help you out."

With a swift move, Hua Cheng pulled his hands out from under Xie Lian's arms and quickly grabbed his wrists, lifting his arms up high above his head. Xie Lian shrieked and broke into loud, frantic giggles, his back arching up against Hua Cheng. Hua Cheng giggled.

"Gege, I'm not even touching you, why are you laughing so much?"

"Lehehet gohoho!" Xie Lian giggled out, weakly pulling at his arms as little tears of laughter clinged to his lashes.

Hua Cheng's grin was big enough to make his cheeks hurt as he spoke again. "Ow, Your Highness," he said with a fake pout. "This San Lang only wanted to show you his affection."

Another delighted shriek followed by loud giggles filled the room as soon as Hua Cheng's cold lips made contact with Xie Lian's skin. He started peppering tiny kisses that certainly tickled Xie Lian out of his mind: on the hollows underneath his armpits, across his chest, his highest ribs, his neck, his collarbones- just every single spot that he was sure would make Xie Lian laugh and giggle.

“Ahhhhahahah it tickles soho much! I’m sohohorry!” Xie Lian squealed, arching his back and squirming heavily as he endured Hua Cheng’s tickly kisses.

“Why are you sorry when I am not?” Hua Cheng asked in between the kisses, talking with his lips against Xie Lian’s warm skin.

“Becahahause- wahhah! Ehehehe San Laaaaang!”

When he felt Xie Lian shaking so much, Hua Cheng released his arms and was pleasantly surprised when those arms landed around his neck; Xie Lian embraced him warmly, clinging onto him as he continued to giggle.

Hua Cheng placed his hands on Xie Lian’s waist and nuzzled his neck, enjoying the embrace, and he felt Xie Lian jump beneath him.

“Here, too?” was all Hua Cheng needed to say before he slightly dug his thumbs into Xie Lian’s waist. Xie Lian let out the cutest cackle.

“Y-you know I’m- ahhaha! Don’t tehehease me!”

Xie Lian being so cute and ticklish made making love to him hard sometimes. Not because his sensitivity was troublesome. But because it could cause Hua Cheng to feel like this: he wanted to hear Xie Lian’s laughter, more, more and more and so, he couldn't help but tease his precious lover a bit more; his fangs gently sinking into Xie Lian's warm skin, playfully nibbling.

"Ahaha! Sahahan Lahang!" Xie Lian giggled, his shoulders lifting up, squishing Hua Cheng's head. "Lehehet thihis pohohoor mahahan breheheathe!"

Hua Cheng laughed softly, leaving a tender kiss against Xie Lian's throat. "I apologize, gege," he said, lifting his face to look at Xie Lian's bright eyes. "I can't help but want to listen to more of that sweet laughter of yours, you see." Xie Lian pouted, but Hua Cheng saw how his lips trembled, trying to hold back a smile. "I'm also sure gege doesn't mind either, hmm?"

Xie Lian gasped and he was the one hiding against Hua Cheng's neck, his blush creeping to his ears.

"Hua Cheng is so mean." Hua Cheng felt a nice shiver run down his spine as Xie Lian's lips brushed against the skin of his neck. "Acting as if he isn't ticklish at all."

Hua Cheng widened his eye, "what- ahaha! G-Gegehehe!" He giggled, arching his back away from Xie Lian's delicate touch against his shoulder blades. His skin woke in goosebumps as Xie Lian's fingers traced his spine and lower back and peppered tiny kisses on his collarbones- a place he wasn't ticklish, but somehow felt highly sensitive, perhaps because he was laughing already.

"Do you want me to get your hips, San Lang?" Xie Lian asked playfully, but his fingers stilled and he rubbed Hua Cheng's back tenderly. The difference between temperatures always felt amazing.

"Nohoho!" Hua Cheng squealed, jerking his hips away from Xie Lian, but the god moved back closer to him. "Oh, noho, Your Highness, plehehease! You can be quite ruthless when you go there."

Xie Lian laughed and Hua Cheng felt his silver butterflies fluttering inside his stomach. "That is because San Lang doesn't need to breathe."

They laughed softly, pressing their foreheads together, looking at each other as if they were staring at the most precious thing in the whole world, and they were. Nuzzling their noses together, Hua Cheng smiled tenderly and thought that, even though he enjoyed giving Xie Lian the best pleasure he could ever experience, sometimes they would end up like this: giggling as they tickled each other and kissed and cuddled, holding each other so close and so tightly and so tenderly all at the same time.

Hua Cheng curled his toes in giddiness and felt silly and he laughed, making Xie Lian laugh too, so hard until Xie Lian's cheeks were red and he was having trouble catching his breath.

Yes, having sex was great, but this was definitely the best.
