Howdy same anon who just stalked the playroom AU, this stumped me- there’s a link in the ask and when I tried to use it, it said video unavailable- could you try and simplify what the video was if you remember? It’s been bothering me- sorry to send in two asks one right after the other- and sorry for the request, it’s fine if you don’t want to explain what it was!
(I don’t want to ask you to explain the whole thing, that’d be kinda rude in my opinion, so I won’t be asking for a full description, just a simplified explaination;w;)
ah sure!
It's just a link to a video that shows a section of the Raggedy Ann and Andy animated movie; it's where a king gets a multi-limbed monster to tickle the main cast in order to make them laugh for his entertainment so he can become "the biggest thing in the world". Dude's super tiny and only grows bigger when laughing at other people. This movie is so silly XD

You absolutely give off a vibe that if you were to ever quit writing tickle fics of the egos that you would send it off with a grand finale where EVERYONE gets tickled. Probably by a big viney monster.
I can see the plot being something like Marvin's magic mishaps and one of Henrik's experiements (or an experiment on Marvin's magic) going "horribly wrong" and how each character has their own little perspective of the chaos. And knowing you, you'd add small details the reference someone else's perspective (aka hearing a "manly shriek" followed by the perspective of said shriek). Each perspective of each character and what they were doing before the mishap, like Magnum tying up his boat before being scooped up by a creature similar to Gazooks from Raggedy Ann and Andy. Or Dark doing paperwork, his mind numbing as he reads over the numbers as Wilford bugs him to get up and stretch. Dark finally snaps after a playful poke and pins Wilford to the wall with a growly growl "You're about to stretch in a minute" followed by both also being grabbed by the monster.
The jims were doing brotherly twin activities with Eric, roughhousing with him. Both Jims get him pinned and are just about to get him. Eric closes his eyes, too flustered to watch but nothing happens. Surely it's an anticipation trick, but he falls for it. He peeks an eye open and reporter jim is no longer straddling his thighs. Camera jim ran off to rescue his brother and gets captured. Eric attempts to run off to get help and of course, gets captured as well.
Googles were probably in the middle of maintenance. Bing was doing a sick trick where he's doing a handstand on top of a ramp. Anti and Jamie were planning their next prank and it goes "horribly wrong" in the sense that it was rudely interrupted by the monster (they probably duct taped Chase to the wall and were just about to get him out. Poor chase doesn't even need to be scooped up!)
Robbie was being a little assistant for Shawn and in an attempt to show affection, he paints one of Robbie's cheeks to make him giggle. He goes back to work and finds something is brushing against his cheek. In a comedic turn of events Shawn thinks it's Robbie trying to get him back, only to discover it was in fact a paint brush like tendril/vine. Hijinks ensue.
Yancy was on facetime with Murderslaughter who is NOT helping the situation at all, telling the beast to aim for his ribs and teasing him about going soft if he couldn't handle one monster when he was used to 20 or.more hands grabbing him at a time. The beast proceeds to grow more appendages to get Yancy.
Jackie and Silver were probably practice sparring with each other for training as Host, Yandere, and Dr. Iplier watch. Jackie 80 percent of the time is able to pin Silver down, but Host keeps resetting their positions either way, getting a kick out of Jackie's determination and playful annoyance. Dr. Iplier is watching their vitals, superhero stamina is such an interesting thing, especially since this sparring has been going on for hours and only starting to get a little tired. Yandere is there to cheer on and shout out fighting manuevers, planning to have both heroes tuckered out before attacking themselves. They then just barely hear Host's narration murmurs, something about a monster about to interrupt their sparring. Couple of seconds later and bam, all 5 of them are captured and just their luck, the two superheroes are also captured and too weak to pry off the appendages
Illinois is the only one who almost got away. Almost. His overwhelming luck allowed him to not get captured. Until he ran into Actor who thought it'd be funny to throw him into the chaos. Actor was just about to walk away when Ben got captured. Some would say Actor would have just left him, but he was fulled by jealousy because no one messes with his butler but him!
Unus and Annus were in the middle of a séance for fun to see what would happen. They think they caused the monster to appear.
And that's all the ones I could think of. Obviously I would never ask you for such a big feat. But you defo give off the vibe that if you ever quit writing fanfics, you'd give one hell of a last hurrah!
YOU DAMN FUCKIN BET I WOULD HOLY SHIT THIS IDEA IS SO COOL - I'm not at the point of stopping outright yet as I still have prompts to fulfil, but you have correctly identified My Vibe for a finale 😆💜

so, with the raggedy dolls, they both have their own unique music tastes that they enjoy.
raggedy andy enjoys romantic music and related artists, such as frank sinatra, bing crosby, and george michael / wham!
raggedy ann, on the other hand, listens to rock and hard metal artists such as limp bizkit, rammstein, metallica. she purposely would listen to the music on industrial speakers to feel the bass tickle her. an example of how she'd listen to music is this.

Fixing Raggedy Ann and Andy: a Musical Adventure
I recently discovered this gem of a film, and I’ve fallen in love with these funky little rag dollies! Raggedy Ann and Andy: a Musical Adventure has stunning animation, incredible music, and charming characters. That said, I can certainly see the flaws in the story, characters, and musical structure of the film, so I’ve written up what I would change to make it stronger.
Under the cut, because this got looooong.
• Theme: this film is actually not far off from having a solid story, if you think of the film being about love and happiness, rather than about the literal adventure. Every character’s goal is to find happiness. The captain thinks that claiming Babette as his bride, as if she’s a pretty trophy to show off, will make him happy. The Greedy follows a similar line of thinking, as he believes finding a sweetheart to add to his collection of sweets will make him happy. Even though both are desiring people, they demonstrate the idea of finding joy in ownership, rather than in interaction. Babette and the Camel are both trying to get home, with the former wanting to go to Paris and the latter wanting to join a camel caravan. They place all of their hopes for happiness on finding a certain place, instead of trying to make the best of where they are. Sir Leonard Looney thinks that joy comes from playing pranks on others and laughing at them. Finally, Raggedy Ann and Andy know that happiness comes from being with your loved ones.
• Characters: to start, notice that I left King Koo Koo off the list of characters discussed in the theme section. This decision is due to the fact that his goal is confusing; he also tries to find joy in the misery of others, but that’s to serve another goal, making himself bigger (which just ends up being disturbing in the film). I say that this character should be scrapped entirely. In terms of theme, Sir Leonard makes him redundant, and in terms of plot, it’s not difficult to write him out (more on that later). The other major character that needs an overhaul is the Captain. I get what they were going for; he’s supposed to be desperately lonely inside his snowglobe—even though he seems to have an entire pirate crew—which is why he kidnaps Babette. At the end of the film, he’s supposed to be redeemed, but he still comes across as acting creepy toward Babette, and he never even apologizes! I would tweak this character. First of all, he should be entirely alone in the snowglobe save for Queasy; this doesn’t justify his actions, mind you, but it at least makes him a little more sympathetic. Most importantly, he needs to come to the realization on his own that what he did was wrong. Instead of having him complain to Queasy in the brig about losing his “prize,” have him admit that he messed up; he can’t cure his loneliness if he treats other people like trophies, rather than showing them respect. The Captain also needs actually apologize for his actions—it’s hardly fair to have Babette apologize for causing trouble, but then for the person who started the whole mess to get off scot-free! Additionally, to lessen the creep factor, I would also have him no longer be “in love” with Babette at the end of the film, but instead show him respecting her as a friend.
• Songs: I love most of the songs in this film, but there certainly are too many—there’s 19 songs on the soundtrack! The first fix is to eliminate all of the Twin Penny jingles. These mini-songs are unnecessary, always bringing the story to a screeching halt and interrupting the flow of dialogue. Also, the Twin Pennies get the first song of the film, which hardly makes sense! That brings us down to 16 songs. The second obvious fix is to get rid of any background songs, or any songs that aren’t actual musical numbers in the film. That scratches “A Miracle” and “the Abduction & Yo-Ho,” which are both played behind dialogue during the kidnapping scene; the latter song doesn’t even end properly! I would also include “Camel’s Mirage” among these songs, and change that to an instrumental version, since the lyrics don’t contribute much impact anyway. 13 songs now. If we apply the change I made under the characters section, the elimination of King Koo Koo, we can get rid of "Hail to Our Glorious King” and "It's Not Easy Being King,” bringing us down to 11 songs. The final fix would be to combine songs whenever there’s two back-to-back. The film already does this anyway, having the final song “Home” transition into a reprise of “Candy Hearts and Paper Flowers,” so it wouldn’t be difficult to do it for a few other songs. The first instance of this is “Rag Dolly” and “Poor Babette.” Since “Poor Babette” is a pretty weak tune anyway, let’s just make Babette’s lament into another verse of “Rag Dolly!” Just switch it to a more dismal sound and change the lyrics—I’m thinking something along these lines: “Oh, I’m just a poor dolly, stranded so far from Paris / such a miserable dolly, trapped in this strange nursery / I feel melancholy, knowing I can’t get away / so this French dolly, scared and alone, has no choice but to stay.” The other two songs I would combine would be “Hooray for Me” and “You’re My Friend.” This one is even easier, since both songs are already call-and-response; just rearrange “Hooray for Me” as follows: “Hooray for me! Hooray for she! / Babette of Paris! She’s captain, see! / What joy, what glee! What joy, what glee! / When our voyage ends / once we’ve crossed the deep blue sea / we’ll reach Paris! We’ll reach Paris!” That makes our final count 9 songs: “I Look, And What Do I See,” “I’m No Girl’s Toy,” “Rag Dolly,” "Candy Hearts and Paper Flowers,” “Blue,” “I Never Get Enough,” “I Love You,” “You’re My Friend,” and “Home/Candy Hearts and Paper Flowers reprise.”
• Setting: now, I love how surreal the settings are, but I’ll readily admit that it doesn’t make much sense. The film says that Ann and Andy just go into the woods, and yet they run into a Taffy Pit and a Looney Kingdom out there! To help with suspension of disbelief, I say that instead of going out the window to chase the Captain, they go into Marcella’s drawings.
• Plot: with all of these changes in place, let’s play out the story! The beginning goes the same until we get to the Captain’s escape. Ann still helps him get out, but instead of him already having a ship and a crew inside the snowglobe, he goes up to one of Marcella’s drawings, a pirate ship on the sea, and orders the crew to jump out and help him kidnap Babette. The pirates then escape into a drawing of a starry sky over a desert sticking out of Marcella’s backpack. Ann and Andy follow them in, and the meet the Camel. He was abandoned in the lost-and-found at the school and ended up climbing into the drawing to look for his caravan. He agrees to help Ann and Andy, but gets distracted by the camels in the sky; the three ride right off the edge of the page and into a different drawing, this one showing candies and sweets galore. The encounter with the Greedy plays out as in the original film, and the trio escapes into another drawing, this one showing a castle. They run into Sir Leonard Looney, who intends to keep them in Looneyland for his own entertainment, but they get him and the other Loonies distracted by throwing pies and escape into the sea drawing. Sir Leonard is the one who calls up Gazooks to pursue them, hoping to get the last laugh. The three use the H.M.S. Koo Koo to get onto the ship and find Babette has become Captain. Crucially, we see the Captain showing remorse for his actions while he’s in the brig. While Babette is tying up Ann, Andy, and the Camel, the Captain spots Gazooks sneaking up on the ship through a porthole; he breaks out of the brig and gets on deck to warn Babette. Babette realizes she’ll have to give up on reaching Paris to keep her new friends safe. She commands her crew to turn the ship around. Gazooks attacks, tickling all of the crew as well as Andy and the Camel. While they’re being shaken around, Andy and the Camel drop joy buzzers and gum balls that got caught up in their clothes/wrinkled knees in the Taffy Pit and the Looney Kingdom. Ann, Babette, and the Captain pick up these items, and use them to load up a cannon and fire at Gazooks. The explosion knocks the toys out of the drawing. The Captain lands on a shelf by his snowglobe, but the Camel goes out the window and lands on the ground. Ann, Andy, and Babette nearly fall as well, but manage to hang onto the curtain. Ann is terrified for Babette, who will shatter if she falls. Just as the three think Babette is going to drop, Marcella comes in. She grabs her silly dolls, scolds them for playing near an open window, and puts them back in their proper places before leaving again. (I’m writing this scene with the original stories in mind; the original Marcella always seemed fairly aware that her dolls were getting into trouble behind her back, and would just scold them and save them as necessary.) The dolls are relieved to be home, and we get the Captain’s apology, and show him respecting Babette as a friend, as well as quite an impressive pirate Captain herself! Meanwhile, the Camel is left outside. He sees the caravan once again, but unlike in the original film, it leads in the opposite direction of the house. He stares at them longingly, but forces himself to turn away, and goes for the playroom window instead. Of course, he’s welcomed into the family, and we get our happy ending at last.
If you made it this far, please let me know what you think of my fixes, and what you would change about the film!

Reimagined Tickling #3
Shantae/Raggedy Ann & Andy: A Musical Adventure
For those unaware, I sometimes look at famous tickle scenes in movies/tv and wonder what they would be like with other characters and settings. The first time I did this, people really seemed to like it….much more than I thought they would!
So for my next attempt, I decided I’d take that weird-ass tickle monster scene from the Raggedy Ann movie…you know the one…
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And do a variation on that with...
Tumblr media
….some seafaring Shantae characters!
Tumblr media
Ocean spray peppered Shantae’s face while entire islands sailed past her. Wrench was carrying her and her friends…Bolo, Sky, and of course Rottytops…out to sea, in a pulse-pounding chase after Risky Boots’ new and improved Tinkertug vessel. And though the four of them were almost too much for the bird to carry, it was still faster than sailing.
Static noise buzzed on and off from a pink crystal ball in Shantae’s hands. She’d been practicing with it but still had difficulty getting a signal. Inside the sphere swam the face of her Uncle Mimic.
“She can’t be too far out now. You’ve got to bring that treasure back!” he told her.
“I’m just glad the Ammo Baron doesn’t have the Shock Battery anymore. If there’s anyone who doesn’t need that kind of firepower, it’s him!” the half-genie hero replied. Wrench dove closer to the blue sea and shredded the surface with the tips of his wings.
“Ohhh, in Risky’s hands it may be just as dangerous!” Uncle Mimic, Shantae thought, always worried too much. “That Battery could power an entire fleet of Tinkertugs til the cows come home!”
“Oh, Uncle, we’ve got it under control! We deal with Risky all the time. Just you wait. Back before you know it!”
Excited for the mission ahead, Shantae waved her hand, dissipating the noisy image inside the crystal ball, and stuffed it in her pocket.
“There she is! Up ahead!” cried Sky, pointing forward. They were rapidly gaining on Risky’s ship, all alone on the horizon. Shantae eagerly gripped the feathers on Wrench’s neck and bent forward.
"WOOHOO!!!!"
A triumphant holler rang out over the open sea, and Risky Boots' eyes darted skyward. She had mere seconds to dive out of the way before Wrench's claws crashed down onto the deck of her ship and threw wobbly Tinkerbats all over the place. Her four heroic foils all leapt from their carrier bird's back in perfect formation, taking extra care to strike a dramatic pose, and Wrench immediately shrank down to size in a puff of purple-and-blue feathers. He perched on his master's outstretched arm and trilled at the simmering Pirate Queen.
"Ret-2-Go!" Shantae yelled.
"Heh-Heh...oh, you're still doing the battle cry thing? Cute. I was wondering when you losers would show up," Risky laughed. Her hat had gone askew as she dodged Wrench's assault, and she straightened it with a flirtatious lick of her lips.
Bolo readied his grappling hook.
"Alrighty now! Give back the Shock Battery, you confusingly gorgeous criminal woman!"
Rotty slapped him.
"Ha-Ha! Or what?" Risky drew her cutlass, and her Tinkerbats swarmed in formation around her. "I gotta admit...stealing this was way too easy. And I've been itching for a fight."
Her weak little minions retrieved whatever daggers and ropes they could lay their hands on. One tripped trying to lift a cannonball. It was an old-fashioned stare-down as combatants locked eyes, two armies opposed beneath the blazing sun.
But before anyone could launch a projectile, swing a sword, or whip their hair back and forth, all of them paused. A soft gurgling noise was coming up from below. Definitely not from Risky's ship. Making sure to keep their weapons pointed at each other, the two leaders glanced over the edge of the ship, and saw a mass of teeming bubbles and sea foam, growing bigger and bigger by the second. Something was coming up.
From beneath the sea there rose a crimson hill, like the top half of a massive dodgeball, equipped with a strange mechanical saddle. There were two round, yellow eyes, familiar ones, at the lip of the water, which stared intently at the pirate ship's passengers. It was the Squid Baron!
Astride this odd craft was the Ammo Baron, holding a pair of reins, and flanked by his two young recruits, Twitch and Vinegar. The water which sloughed from their clothing didn't seem to bother them in the slightest...they were downright determined and eager. The Ammo Baron practiced his evil laugh as the ocean around him came to rest.
Tumblr media
"HA-HA HA-HA HA!! We've got you now, Risky Boots! Ooo, and it looks like her saucy little genie pal is here to join the fun too!" he chortled.
"Squid Baron?!" exclaimed Shantae. "What are you doing with this guy?"
A froth of bubbles blew up from the water with a gurgling, splashy sound. Apparently the Squid had tried to say something without lifting his mouth out of the ocean first.
"We're teamed up now!" Ammo helpfully explained. "I got him some souped-up new tricks, and he's gonna help me get my stuff back!"
"Hand over the Battery, simpletons! There's nowhere for you to split!" Vinegar called out.
"We've got you completely surrounded!" complied Twitch.
The Baron and his accomplices seemed totally unfazed by the fact that they were relatively low in the water, with a cannon staring them directly in the face. Shantae wasn't sure whether or not she should say something. Sky just facepalmed and shook her head.
"Pfff! Who do you think you're kidding, honey?" Risky scoffed. "If you couldn't even be bothered to lock this booty up..." (...she put a very uncomfortable emphasis on that word...) "...there's no way in heck you're gettin' it back! Now hop it! I'm busy with this one!"
But the trio of cantankerous soldiers showed no indication of leaving. In fact, their wicked grins only grew in size. Bubbles rose from the Squid Baron's area, as if he was laughing beneath the waves.
"Heh-Heh-Heh...you asked for it!"
Suddenly, the whole sea around them rumbled. Squid Baron's head was all aglow with soft orange light, vibrating and bouncing faster and faster, until his riders could barley hold onto their saddle.
Out of nowhere the red, bulbous ball of rubber stretched high enough to blot out the sun, and his tentacles...once merely 8 in number...had multiplied, extended to a much greater length than his head, grown thick with muscle. Laid end-to-end, from the tips of his arms to the top of his head, this newly-formed Squid Baron would have even dwarfed the Empress Siren in size.
“Whoa! That’s no Squid Baron…that’s a Kraken Baron!” Rottytops yelped.
“HA HA HA HA!! Check me out now, ladies!” The Squid Baron’s greatly-deepened voice shook the ships and rattled the skyline. “Who’s a ‘filler boss’ now?! Not this guy! I’m the Final Boss I always wanted to be!”
“What happened to him?!” Sky was more grossed-out than afraid.
“Nice, right?” the Ammo Baron laughed in reply. “It’s amazing what some half-genies’ll do for a couple bucks!”
“Ok, Squiddy…” began Twitch, striking a pose.
“…pick ‘em up!” finished Vinegar.
A hail of blood-red arms rained down and battered the deck of the ship. The Squid’s increased number of limbs slithered down along the floorboards, reaching for any stray arm or leg they could find, and…aha! found another one…yanked their prey into the air. The pirates and heroes all dove for cover, but one by one they were all snatched. Just as Bolo flew into the rafters with a loud holler, another tentacle reached for Rottytops.
“Heeyah!” The zombie girl swung her leg around to kick the grabby Baron, but his hide was too tough…as soon as her foot struck, the force reverberated through her, and her whole limb popped off and flew across the deck.
Oops.
Rotty’s eyes bulged just in time for her to get a good view of her impending makeout session with the mottled floor. She squeaked at the impact. Before her leg could even attempt crawling back to her, both pieces of her body were hauled skyward by the cackling Squid.
“Put me down you, gross weirdo!” Rottytops wailed.
Soon, everyone was in the air, held over the ship, but Risky herself…and Shantae…were nowhere to be seen. They had ran.
"Got 'em!" Vinegar shouted in triumph.
"Woohoo!" Twitch thrilled at watching them struggle.
“Ok! Ok! Drumroll!” called out the Ammo Baron. “Ready…
....aim…
...TICKLE!”
One of the mutant Squid Baron’s tendrils reached down and began to wiggle near Bolo’s armpit. He didn’t resist for long.
“PppfffHa-Haaaa! Woo-Hoo! Haha!” Bolo cackled.
“AH!! Heheh-Heheh Heh! *gasp* Aheh-Heh! Ah-Heh! Ha-Ha Ha-Ha Ha!” Rottytops shrieked and burst into giggles. One slimy tentacle was poking around the zombie girl’s belly button...this is soooo gross!! she thought. And another one had pulled the boot from Rotty’s detached leg and was going after her foot.
“Wait…wait-Eh; Ha-Ha Ha!” yelped Bolo.
“Heh, Haha-Ha-Ha Ha! Wre…Wrench, Heh-Heh-Help!!” Sky cried out. She struggled to push the monster Baron’s arms away, but they all kept shoving until they forced their way into the bird-trainer’s shirt, squeezing mercilessly around her ribcage.
“Ha-Haaaaa, Ha!” bellowed the Ammo Baron from atop his unconventional steed. "Now the Battery is mine!"
They might have been left out of the “action,” but Twitch and Vinegar were dying from laughter of their own - the mischievous mechanics found themselves reduced to hysterics, watching their boss’ foes tickle-tortured into submission. The pair nearly slipped and fell off the Squid Baron’s round dome, so overcome were they with sadistic glee.
Slowly, a creaky, upturned lifeboat lifted itself off the deck of the ship…barely a few inches. None of the villains could possibly have seen it. There, hiding from sight and forced to watch Shantae’s friends suffer, were the Pirate Queen and the half-genie hero herself.
“Gah…quit shoving! He’ll see us!” whispered Risky angrily, elbowing Shantae in the shoulder.
“Are you happy now, Risky?!” Shantae hissed back. “He was following you this whole time! This is why you don't steal from people! Just look what he’s doing to your crew!! Don't you care?!”
Risky looked out at the spectacle. Among his field of laughing victims, the Squid Baron was holding a few Tinkerbats aloft and relentlessly attempting to tickle them too, but the little minions just hung there and blinked stupidly. It wasn’t exactly a moving sight.
Still, Risky expressed a heavy sigh and squeezed her eyes tightly.
“Ugh…look, I’m sorry. I didn’t want all of you guys to get mixed up in this,” she grumbled. The attempt to be nice was killing her. But she knew Shantae was her only chance at stopping this guy. Outside their hermit hole, Risky could hear the Barons’ victims continue to cackle themselves silly.
“Heheh-Heheh Haha! *gasp* AAAHHH! *gasp* Aha-Ha Ha-Ha! Make it stop! Make it stop!” squealed Rottytops. The tips of the Squid’s tentacles dug into the arches of her green-skinned feet and were tickling her mercilessly.
“Pffff! Heh-HA-Ha-Haaaaa; Heehee-Hee!” Bolo had a loud, raspy belly laugh, despite not actually being all that ticklish.
“Nnnn…this is so wrong! I’m so ticklish I can’t even watch!” Shantae confessed, shivering. Risky tried not to look too sympathetic, even as a bead of sweat trickled out of her bandana.
But suddenly, the two heard another voice.
“Hey! Look who’s hiding down there!!” The Ammo Baron?
“Oh no,” Risky gulped.
Blazing light spilled down onto their backs as their protective shell of a dinghy was pried away. Risky leapt up and drew her cutlass, but was unable to stave off the monster’s limbs. Before she and Shantae could react, they were scooped up by the Squid and held aloft, high among the sails.
“Gahhh, let us go!”
“Now tickle ‘em!” the Ammo Baron called, and his new partner obeyed.
“AAAHHH; HA-HA HA-HA HA-HA!!! Oho Ho-Ho Ha-Ha Ha!! Stop! STOP IT!” Risky Boots immediately began to scream. A tentacle was writhing all over her pale lavender tummy, in every tender spot it could find, poking between each one of her ribs and making her flail like a crab stuck on its back. Under that haughty exterior, the Pirate Queen was deathly ticklish, and even the smallest touches brought tears to her eyes as she laughed uncontrollably.
Snaking red tubes encircled Shantae’s limbs too, pulling her in all directions, and wiggled behind her knees. They prodded her hips, dug into her armpits, and even tickled between her toes when her shoe fell off.
“Ha-Ha Ha, Ha-AAAAH, Hihih-Haha Ha-Ha! *gasp* Heehee! AH-Ha Ha-Ha Ha! Ok, I give up! Uncle! Uncle!” the poor half-genie cried out in laughter.
The crystal ball in her pocket crackled.
“Uhhh, yes? What is it?” Uncle Mimic responded.
The heroes and their villain were all driven to utterly helpless hysterics. There wasn't a ship around for miles, and Shantae's crew had failed to bring any pike balls or thunder clouds, or anything that might actually be useful in stopping a massive tickle-monster octopus at the behest of a crazy general with a grudge. Risky knew, as a feeling like hot sandpaper ground the inside of her heaving lungs, that she would have to surrender.
But unbeknownst to everyone else, Wrench had listened. And he had a plan.
The Squid Baron, while his arms held his tickle toys aloft, was slowly drifting in circumference around the modest Tinkertug. He'd started to port side of the deck, shimmied his way around the bow, and was now on the other side. All Wrench had to do was wait until they got into position.
The bird let out a determined cawww! and flew in a high arc. His aerial dance caught the eyes of the two Barons, but they merely snorted. After all, what could a pet bird possibly do without his size-changing caramel? Another one of the squid's mighty arms mockingly lashed out at the little blue creature, but he skillfully zipped between them and crashed through the window of Risky's cabin.
It was a bit of a pigsty, strewn with god-knows-how-many neglected maps, charts, books, and cracked treasure chests. Far too much space was devoted to a fancy bathtub. But there was also a crude little device...something like a TV remote, sitting beside Risky's desk.
It was a booby-trap the pirate had pulled on Wrench's pursuits many times before. With a push of the button, three panels opened up in the floor of the cabin. Gears below deck clunked and whirred as they slowly hoisted hidden platforms into the room.
And when he saw what had happened, as he rounded the windows, the Squid Baron’s maniacal laugh disappeared. Three massive cannons were pointed directly at his face. And there was Wrench, holding the detonator in his beak.
“Oh, poop-nuggets.”
KA-BLAM!!!
The fiery belch of the ship’s guns threw Ammo Baron and his minions onto the deck. Recoiling in a white flash of damage, Squid Baron dropped his victims on top of his employers and zipped backwards in the water.
“NOOOO!” the great boss monster bellowed. “But I already sent 8x10 glossies of my gorgeous new body out to the merchandise people!!! T-shirts…drink coasters…decorative toaster cozies!!!!”
Flashing white and spilling sparks everywhere, the Squid Baron's massive form didn't explode, but popped like a balloon, revealing his original body underneath, hanging in the air behind Risky's ship.
"Uh-oh."
With those undignified final words, the octopus plummeted down like a rock and disappeared beneath the waves.
Back on the deck, the Ammo Baron groaned. He rubbed his large, singular eyelid in pain, followed by Twitch and Vinegar. They could still feel the heat of the explosion on their backs. Their world was dizzy and silent. Until a sharp glint of light, hanging onto a curved blade, pounded into wood and sliced off the end of the Baron's goatee. The three gradually stirred and looked up to find themselves surrounded...Shantae, her friends, Risky, and the Tinkerbats were all furious, and waiting.
"So..." Risky began, smirking. "...what should we do with you?"
-------
“GAHHH! GET ME DOWN FROM HERE!!” roared the Ammo Baron.
“Sorry, Baron! No more room up top!” Sky replied in a mocking, sing-songy tone.
Wrench had, with the help of some extra salted caramel, returned to massive size once more, and was eagerly carrying his owner and her friends over the sea. Sun was setting, and the salty ocean air had withered down to a breeze. The Ammo Baron, however, was uncomfortably tied to Wrench’s breast like the figurehead of a ship, his legs dangling awkwardly into the clouds. Every couple of seconds, the extra weight caused Wrench to dip slightly, and the cycloptic warlord screamed like a girl.
“I still think we should’ve stuck a fishtail and a clamshell bra on him,” Rottytops mused.
“Hey, Baron! You better hold still down there…” Shantae warned him. “After all…”
Against his better judgment, the Ammo Baron looked down at the solid mile between him and the sharp rocks.
“…Wrench is ticklish too!”
Tumblr media
Twitch and Vinegar, on the other hand, found themselves tied to the mast of Risky’s ship. Shantae had promised her eternal rival to look the other way and let her exact all the revenge she wanted…in exchange for the Shock Battery. To her great surprise, it was a price that Risky had been willing to pay.
Night had fully fallen as the ship drifted back toward Scuttle Town. Tinkerbats swung like monkeys from the lanterns.
“Grrr…you better let us go or our boss is gonna come after you!” Vinegar snapped. Twitch spit aggressively on the floor.
But Risky merely smirked.
“Oh, old Ammo is gonna be busy for a while. You’re stuck with me til I get back to town, sweeties.”
Twitch & Vinegar could feel all the Tinkerbats lazily eyeing them up.
“…so what are you gonna do with us?” Twitch demanded. Both girls were simultaneously angry and nervous, and it showed. Knowing Risky, they expected something humiliating…probably a grandiose bad-guy speech to go along with it…but the Pirate Queen didn’t say anything. She stepped forward, leaned down, playfully cradled Vinegar’s chin in her hand, and smiled that damn arrogant smile.
From under her tricorn, she pulled out a long, soft-looking red feather, and just waved it back and forth in the dancing firelight.
The blondes looked horrified.
“…no…y-you wouldn’t…” stammered Vinegar.
--------
None of the mermaids in their nearby coves got any sleep that night. All throughout the evening, they swore they could hear what sounded like loud shrieks of laughter coming from above the water.
All of my recent fics/posts end up being longer than I planned them to, and longer than my initial writings on this blog. Is this a decent length for a tickle post? I really gotta rein it in or this'll eat up all of my time. lol

what got you into tickling?
I've had a fixation on it ever since I saw Raggedy Ann and Andy: A Musical Adventure when I was very young. That ending just hit a chord that never went away.
