Tickletober Day 14, Soft

Kingdom Hearts brain rot go brrrrrr! I like the idea of Donald and Goofy teasing their friend when they get in the Gummi Ship cause it "Runs on Laughter". So, anytime Sora shows even the littlest hint of sadness? The two softy tickle him until he can't help but be happy~!

(My art don't repost but please reblog)

[anxious-lee]

Got any headcanons for Della? I’m curious.

God she's so wonderful... 😳 erm uh anyway headcanons

Della Duck Tickle Headcanons

- devious ler

- she doesn't strike me as someone who likes being tickled idk

- is so good at ambushing people, you'd never know she was going to tickle you until it was too late

- laughs with the lee, but like not like that; she MANIACALLY laughs like a corny supervillain

- thought up so many tickle games to play with her sons while she was on the moon. most of them, the boys were too old for. but not all of them! she and the triplets play all sorts of tickle monster games (which Louie claims he's too old for mhm sure buddy whatever you say)

- she tickles dewey the most bc he makes it so obvious he wants it. dude grew up motherless and now she's here, he needs some physical displays of love and assurance STAT

- teases by calling herself the tickle monster and pretending to gobble up her victims. she goes into these dramatic monologues about how she feeds on the laughter of the innocent yada yada and that just makes the lee laugh even harder because of how silly it is

- grew up getting into intense tickle wars with donald, so she knows how to push his buttons. she starts telling the boys how to wreck their uncle donald and the duck in question tries to shut her up any way he can but it's no use. the triplets make very good use of their mom's intel lol

- della can say the t-word with no issue

- tickles with pokes, squeezes, and scribbles. not a gentle tickler

- can almost (and I do say ALMOST) get too carried away tickling someone but in a couple seconds after she snaps out of her tickle-monster phase, she pulls back immediately

- advocates strongly for personal boundaries with her kids. if they don't like something, she won't do it, simple as that

- louie and huey's protests die quickly on their tongues because inside, they really do want the tickles (especially louie). it makes them feel closer to the mom they never had

- the BEST at raspberries

- finishes up tickle fights with her boys with a long cuddle session, complete with kisses and hugs 🩷

- finishes up tickle fights with donald like "haha got ya dork 😜"

----

Et voila!

Coochie Coochie Coo!

Scrooge is bored and then he remembers that he hasn't heard Donald laugh for a long time..

Scrooge McDuck ler/ Donald Duck lee

°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°

Scrooge sighed loudly and heavily pushing the papers away from him. He leaned back in his chair and stared at the ceiling in boredom

As much as the old man didn't want to admit it, he hated paperwork. To him, it seemed like hell for adventurers like him!

Every idea that came to mind was shattered by reality

He couldn't study old scriptures and solve riddles with Huey, couldn't tell old adventures with Dewey, and couldn't discuss finances and his new business with Louis

"Well, I can't blame them. The boys want to be with their mom" — Scrooge nodded to himself — "And the girls are busy too... Apparently 22 and Della specifically talked about how to spend time with children" — he chuckled, remembering how in the morning Webby enthusiastically told them what was waiting for them that day and how Mae and June listened to her attentively with shining eyes

But 22 went with the girls to the highlands, as did Della and the boys to the city, as did his mood

Launchpad has a date with Darkwing and his daughter

Gyro with his robo-sons and Manny on vacation in China. And Fenton and his girlfriend are there too

What to do?...

CLAP

Scrooge jerked violently. He got up from his chair and looked out the window that led to the pool

On his houseboat, Donald threw a tantrum on his boat again and got angry in his own style

Scrooge chuckled to his memories of this office

At first, he did not even think about the "office" in his mansion and preferred to work at work

But then two problems appeared in the form of his nephew and niece and he could not leave them alone for some reason

First: well... They are his nephews, his family, problems are part of their lives and I didn't really want to pay Duckworth extra for psychological damage

And secondly... He missed them like hell! Working from home, he could calmly watch the twins and not die from the thought that something would happen to them

The location of the cabinet was also influenced by these two

Donald, when he wasn't in his room, was mostly by the pool.

He created boats and islands out of everything that could float and played the traveler when no one saw him.. At least, Della definitely didn't see.

But when he still couldn't get rid of her, Donald just played guitar on the side of the pool

Ah, these beautiful days~...

Scrooge returned to modern days and noticed a strange thing

"Why did Donald smile so little?" — this question shocked him — "Nah, that can't be"

Scrooge was rummaging through the memories of recent times and did not understand where this question came from at all?

Here is their reunion, and how Donald smiled at the boys after the adventure on Atlandita

But still, Scrooge had a strange feeling..

He looked out the window again at the pool, where his nephew was once again trying to relax in his hammock

And suddenly an idea came to him.

A smile spread across the beak, which did not bode well

At least to Donald

----------------------------

Donald was resting quietly in his hammock. The sun warmed pleasantly, the wind rocked his hammock and refreshed the atmosphere, and there was no one at home except his uncle in the study

Nothing could have gone wrong

Well, until this moment

A relaxed and light smile fell from the sailor's beak

He took off his black glasses to look at the cause of the shadow hanging over him

"Hey, lad" — Scrooge stood over him and smiled in a kind way

"Uncle Scrooge?" — Donald raised himself slightly on the hammock to get a better look at his troublemaker — "What do you need?" — his tone abruptly became serious as did his gaze

"Easy, Donald, I just wanted to check on you." — Scrooge raised his hands defensively

"Yeah, sure" — Donald rolled his eyes. He jumped off the hammock and headed to his house — "I'm going to get myself a lemonade, while you come up with a better excuse. Or find the strength to tell the truth" — he said the last sentence at the door

Scrooge shuddered slightly at these words. Even after everything they've been through, Donald is still mad at him.

He shook his head. Donald is right, it's time to stop avoiding problems and behave like a child!

At this time, his nephew came out with a tray in his hands, on which there was a pitcher of lemonade and two glasses.

"I thought you'd want to, too, after all, you've been in the office all day, must be hot?" — Donald shrugged and looked away as he set the tray on the barrel next to the hammock.

Scrooge couldn't help but smile. Donnie could be angry and spit poison all his life, but he would still take care and worry about him

"Thanks, lad, but no" — the sailor just poured himself a lemonade and raised an eyebrow expectantly. — "I.. I was just bored, so I came" — the billionaire rubbed his neck in a restraining gesture

"Okay?" — Donald drawled a little uncertainly — "And what do you want from me?" — Scrooge's face immediately changed from awkward to a smile. A smile — which Donald had known for a very long time and which promised nothing good. He put down his glass and began to walk slightly around his uncle.

Scrooge squinted slightly, but for now he was letting Donald go. And Donald knew better than anyone that if there was a chance to leave, it was better to take it, especially if you contacted Scrooge McDuck.

He turned his head, which was a fatal mistake.

Scrooge, without hesitation, until he was in sight of his nephew, took the opportunity and poked him in the side.

"WAH" — the reaction was not long in coming and Donald covered himself with his hands. They stared at each other for a moment, until.. — "Nah!" — Donald abruptly ran, but it was too late. Scrooge was faster.

His uncle knocked him to the floor and sat on top of him.

"Get off me!" — in an unsuccessful attempt to untie his uncle from himself, the sailor jerked

"I'm afraid my answer is no."

"What are you-" — but Donald couldn't finish. He cringed and tried to hold back the laughter that was about to come out of the treacherously smiling beak. Scrooge's hands were on his stomach while his fingers tickled his nephew.

"What am I what?" — he asked mockingly. From his nephew's beak came rare giggles and giggles, which Donald unsuccessfully tried to keep to himself.

"S-stop.." — only he could speak.

"Hmm..." — Scrooge stopped. He put one hand on his hip and propped his chin with the other in a thoughtful gesture. — "Let me think..." — Donald has already relaxed and started thinking about how to get out of this situation — "No." — But his uncle took advantage of this and abruptly began to tickle his armpits.

"WA- HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" — this time Donald couldn't hold back his laughter — "UNCA- HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! STO- HOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO -P! HAHAHAHA!" — his hands tried to remove his uncle's hands from him, but to no avail. The old man is too strong

"Come on, Donny, aren't you having fun? Yes, for me" — Scrooge chuckled at his gloating, but still decided to spare his nephew — "Okay, I think you've had enough" — with obvious sarcasm, Scrooge got off him and sat down next to him.

Donald rolled over on his stomach and tried to catch his breath. Why is he so ticklish at all?

"Damn it." — Donald wiped his sweat and sat down slightly, having completely recovered his breath. Here Scrooge again seized his hand, which was still on his forehead. — "Wat?"

"Penalty for bad words" — there was a sweet smile on Scrooge's beak, which was only a lie and for Donald it was fatal.

Donald tried to tear off his uncle's hand, but Scrooge just grabbed it with his other hand. He joined his nephew's hands while he struggled unsuccessfully and calmly transferred them to his left hand. Scrooge knelt over Donald.

"No! I don't want to, let it! Let go!" — in unsuccessful attempts, Donald tried to escape.

"Oh, come on Donny~" — his right hand was slowly reaching for his neck while his nephew was trying to move it away, but this was not only useless, but also opened a weak spot for Scrooge. — "Have fun with your beloved uncle." — Scrooge's sweet and gentle voice did not soothe in any way, but only frightened and terrified even more.

"Mmm... He.. He-he.. He..." — a rare chuckles came from the sailor's beak. He was still trying to fight somehow.

Abruptly Scrooge's hand was on his rib and began to tickle there. Quiet giggles abruptly turned into loud laughter. The hand danced expertly on the ribs. Then she moved to the armpit and poked very quickly. And then deftly, and even professionally, she began her journey from the armpit, along the ribs and tummy.

"UNCKI-HEHEHEHEHEHE! STO-HOHOHOHO-P! WAHAHAHAHAHAK! IT TI-HEHEHEHEHE-CKLEHEHEHEHEHES! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" — at this time, Donald kept trying to get out, but despite all the kicking and trying, he couldn't do anything and Scrooge still held and tickled him.

After perhaps an hour, although minutes had actually passed, Scrooge released Donald. He got on his knees, so Donald could stop feeling the pressure on himself and let go of his hands. Donald just caught his breath and wanted to start swearing at his uncle, but..

Scrooge lifted his shirt so that his tummy was free and grabbed his back with both hands and pulled him to his beak.

"Pfffffffffff!"

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! NO-HOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO! STOP, STOP, STOP! PLE-HEHEHEHEHEHE-AHAHAHAHAHAHA-SE!!"

Donald writhed in his uncle's arms while Scrooge held his nephew unwaveringly.

A little later, Scrooge finally released Donald.

"Hehe, that was pretty fun, wasn't it, Donny?" — Satisfied, Scrooge wiped the sweat from his face, proud of his work — "Lad?" — Scrooge turned to the still lying junior — "Donald!" — Duck looked too dead and enjoyed the cold floor.

----------------------------

"Hey, 22!" — a cheerful young female voice made the former agent sigh wearily but lovingly.

"Hello, Della, hello, boys." — she turned to the family, receiving a quick "Hello" from the guys.

"How was your special day?" — under the rapid and excited conversations of the children, the lunar mother began a conversation.

"I'm afraid I can't tell you now."

"Oh, yeah.. This is all your spy, agency and other super secret stuff! Am I right, right?" — young Duck winked at the elderly woman on the last question.

"No." — She shook her head slightly with her eyes closed while Della gave her an unexpected look. — "I said "now." We'll tell you, but later. Maybe tomorrow or at dinner." — she shrugged her shoulders in a casual and relaxed manner that didn't really suit her.

"O. Oh.. I get it." — the cheeky smile was replaced by a tender and loving one, like a mother's, when she looked forward at the children again. — "Also learned a couple of important lessons today, right?"

"Right." — a soft nod followed the surprised look. — "What would you like for dinner?" — Bickley asked a little louder so that the children could hear too.

"I don't think it's worth worrying about right now." — Della waved her hand casually, before the children would have started asking — "Donnie's probably already cooking us something. Probably stewed soup or fried pork." — she was careless towards her twin, but that didn't stop the boys from starting to guess in nostalgia.

"Or chicken with tomatoes and beans.." — in bliss Dewey suggested — "I hope he will add marine products this time too!"

"You remember that he only made us this soup when we were sick, don't you?" — Huey asked skeptically.

"Come on, bro." — Louis stretched out in a relaxed manner while he held June's hand — "Now Uncle Donald does not need to save all the time for everything and everyone except us, so he will be able to pamper us more often than before" — the triplets slightly lowered their heads at these words, remembering how sometimes they heard how much their uncle's stomach rumbled, but he still said that he was not hungry and fed them to satiety and even gave dessert — "Plus, you have to admit, this soup is just the food of the gods. We were lucky that only the three of us ate it! Zeus can only envy and cry like a baby, which he always does" — the joke quickly lifted the mood and the group was able to walk to the mansion and enter it (fortunately, a moment of sadness allowed Bentina to continue to run ahead and open the door for the children).

However, when they entered, there was a strange noise, similar to a fight, in the kitchen area.

The children looked at each other, Louis casually squeezed June's hand tighter (not out of fear, of course).

Suddenly flew out of the kitchen (literally) Scrooge. He got up and looked at the kitchen door, which instantly snapped shut.

"Donald! You can't kick me out of my own kitchen! Open the door!" — He started knocking on the door. However, there was no reaction and he stopped. — "Are you... Offended?" — his answer was a door that opened abruptly and a cane flew out of there, which hit him in the face and he immediately fell. The door slammed shut again.

"Um... Unca Scrooge?" — Della asked a little uncertainly after what she saw, and when Scrooge looked at her still on the floor, she continued — "What's going on here?"

Scrooge just got up again, dusted himself off, adjusted his top hat and glasses.

"Well..." — Scrooge looked at the kitchen door and shuddered slightly. He turned back to the group that had arrived — "I'll... tell you a little later. And how did you spend your day?"

After a while, Donald joined with croissants and everyone forgot about this incident.

Except Donald.

He refused to talk to Scrooge until one day he just burst into tears and he had to forgive him and that day they fell asleep hugging.

Com metade da equipa do site Bandas Desenhadas de férias, foi notória a diminuição de obras lidas, o que se reflete na seleção realizada para a rubrica de Melhores LeR.

Roadkill Cafe & OK Saloon, You Kill It, We Grill It! - Seligman - Arizona - EUA

Encontramos no Roadkill Cafe & OK Saloon um museu de preciosidades do Velho Oeste Americano, um restaurante com alma, história e os ótimos pratos de uma gastronomia rica de sabores.

Continuando a busca pelos locais pitorescos americanos encontramos Seligman, entre as cidades de Flagstaff e Kingman. O município se autodenomina “ponto de nascimento da histórica Rota 66” e mesmo que Springfield no Missouri conteste essa afirmação é inegável que o espírito da Rote 66 é muito mais vivo nesta região que ainda conserva o estereótipo das cenas que vemos nos filmes de viagem.

A Route 66 é conhecida como a “Estrada Mãe” e é indiscutivelmente a estrada mais famosa dos Estados Unidos, nenhuma road trip americana estará completa sem dedicar muitos quilômetros a estes cenários espetaculares. Para ler mais sobre nossas descobertas no Arizona é só clicar aqui: comerdormirviajar.com/tag/arizona 

Foi justamente na cidade de Seligman que encontramos o Roadkill Cafe & OK Saloon. O nome do restaurante e a sugestão de uma aventura gastronômica única nos motivou a conhecer este lugar.

Antes mesmo de entrar no Roadkill já vivenciamos um pouco da vida no velho Oeste. Nos arredores do restaurante encontramos a primeira prisão territorial do Arizona, totalmente preservada. A carrocinha com grades já manteve presos bandidos notórios como Seligman Slim, Four Fingered Frank e o lendário Carl “Curley” Bane.  

Ao lado da prisão encontram-se réplicas das fachadas de lojas clássicas old west. Este espaço serviu como pano de fundo para muitos filmes, clipes musicais, documentários e comerciais de TV.

O termo “Roadkill” sempre foi utilizado de forma pejorativa pelos caminhoneiros que cruzavam os Estados Unidos e queriam se referir aos restaurantes de beira de estrada como “vendedores de carne ruim”, mais ou menos como o pessoal do Brasil que se refere a  algumas comidas de rua como “churrasquinho de gato”.

A ideia que tivemos de “aventura gastronômica” foi porque a legalidade em se pegar animais mortos nas rodovias e vender em restaurantes estilo “Roadkill” varia de estado para estado nos Estados Unidos.

No Tennessee, por exemplo, recuperar e consumir bichos atropelados (com exceção de animais de estimação ou domésticos) é perfeitamente legal perante a lei e não necessita de nenhum registro ou intervenção, já no estado de Maine a polícia tem que marcar os animais mortos antes dos moradores levarem para casa.

No Colorado as pessoas podem consumir os animais atropelados encontrados em beiras de rodovias desde que autorizados pela Divisão de Parques e Vida Selvagem, mas os restaurantes que desejarem servir cozidos e bifes de bichos mortos encontrados nas estradas não é simples, a carne precisa ser fresca e não estar muito machucada.

No Arizona, as leis estaduais não só proíbem a coleta e consumo de “roadkill” como a jurisprudência também proíbe especificamente a caça de camelos (as leis americanas podem ser bem doidas às vezes).

Tudo aqui no RoadKill cafe é inspirado nos estados onde o consumo de animais mortos à beira da estrada é permitido, inclusive os itens do cardápio incluem pratos com nomes como: “Rigor Mortis Tortoise” (rigidez cadavérica da tartaruga), “Rack of Raccoon” (tormento do guaxinim) e “The Chicken That Almost Crossed the Road” (a galinha que quase atravessou a rua).

O menu infantil não fica de fora e exibe itens com os sugestivos nomes: “Donald Forgot to Duck” (Donald esqueceu o pato), “Poached Bambi Burger” (hambúrguer de Bambi roubado), “Barney Con Carne” e “Rocky the Low Flying Squirrel” (Rocky, o esquilo que voa baixo). – Traduções totalmente livres e de acordo com a nossa interpretação –

O fato de não encontrarmos animais atropelados no menu nos causou um misto de frustração com alívio, mas ao mesmo tempo aprendemos uma grande lição de como os “marqueteiros” americanos conseguem fazer grandes esquemas para pegar-turista que funcionam de forma exemplar!

O Roadkill Cafe é repleto de referências à Route 66 e embora realmente não sirva animais encontrados mortos à beira da estrada as várias cabeças nas paredes e os exemplares empalhados criam o clima ideal ao restaurante.

Aqui é muito fácil de distinguir os turistas dos moradores locais, afinal de contas existe sempre um grupo com várias câmeras em punho e outro que entra, senta e começa a beber e conversar como se não tivesse mais ninguém no bar.

O ambiente do OK Saloon nos deixou completamente imersos no Velho Oeste Americano, as paredes e o teto são revestidos com madeiras rústicas onde vários implementos agrícolas dividem espaço com armadilhas para animais, frigideiras e muitas notas de dólares com mensagens deixadas pelos turistas.

A comida é deliciosa, super temperada e com molhos variados e saborosos. As bebidas são servidas em grandes frascos e repostas o tempo todo.

Como a indecisão era grande optamos pelo Roadkill Platter, uma amostra dos pratos favoritos pelos clientes composto por Cheddar Cheese Poppers -pimenta Jalapeño coberta de queijo cheddar e frita com farinha crocante-, Fried Zucchini -abobrinha frita empana em massa caseira-, Buffalo “Bat” Wings -asinhas de frango com molho secreto e 7 pimentas- e Onion Rings -anéis de cebola apimentados com molho de churrasco-. – US$ 15,99 (cerca de R$ 52,00) em 07/2017 –

Antes de sairmos do restaurante passamos na loja de presentes e lembranças divertidas, ideal para comprar aqueles souvenirs que lotam a sala de casa mas acabam nos trazendo ótimas lembranças.

Deixamos Seligman no fim da tarde e seguimos de volta a Peach Springs onde estávamos hospedados.

O assunto “Route 66” imperou em nossas filosofias ao crepúsculo: O que faz desta estrada que hoje está praticamente abandonada (substituída pela moderna e eficiente Interstate-40 com suas oito pistas) um mito? Por que esta antiga e mal conservada faixa de concreto desperta tantas emoções?

A resposta foi uma só: Esta não é apenas mais uma rota, este é o símbolo do espírito empreendedor norte-americano, uma via que foi construída com a missão de juntar estados tão diferentes entre si e permaneceu com a alma dos antigos desbravadores, sem maquiagens ou mesmices, sem a interferência dos tempos modernos. A Route 66 segue sendo uma aventura inesquecível para aqueles que querem mergulhar na história do povo deste país.

Seligman é a cidade do Velho Oeste responsável pelo sucesso e herança cultural que fez da Rota 66 uma via tão popular e o Roadkill Cafe é um dos melhores exemplos de como o marketing bem colocado pode levar os turistas por uma ótima viagem gastronômica com pratos fartos e muita bebida.

Se o cardápio engraçado não traz verdadeiros animais mortos por atropelamento para nossa mesa, pelo menos arranca muitas risadas dos comensais (exceto dos vegetarianos e ativistas dos direitos dos animais). Este restaurante definitivamente merece estar na lista de destinos imperdíveis da Rota 66.
