#last time they used him as a guinea pig for a tickle competition he couldn't speak for the rest of the day because he couldn't stop giggling

I understand that this may cause a bit of emotional whiplash considering my last post (and to the anon who sent that message to my inbox, I will respond to it, I just don’t know what to say at the moment), but the first chapter of Xenoblade 3 has me thinking about Lanz and Taion’s relationship as the two tickle monsters of the main party.

Mild spoilers for the first chapter of Xenoblade 3 under the cut.

Lanz and Taion’s bickering upon meeting each other after the events of Alfeto Valley has me thinking about the potential of them being super competitive with each other in terms of who’s the better tickle monster. They’d constantly challenge each other to see who’s the best tickler out of the two of them, and unfortunately, the rest of the main party are their victims test subjects.

I can see the two of them being like, “I’m the best tickler out of all of us!” “No, I’M the better tickler of this group!” while they tickle their poor victim to tears. They’d try to one up each other and get carried away while doing so, resulting in them nearly tickling their friend to death.
