Caine’s Extravagant Obscure and Explore Championship

TickleTober Day 4: Hide and Seek

Lees: Pomni, Kinger and Zooble

Lers: Jax, Gangle and Ragatha

Summary: Caine’s latest in-house adventure involves the circus members playing a totally not a rip-off version of Hide and Seek. Jax introduces a twist that catches on.

After the events that happened at the Candy Carrier Kingdom, Caine, despite all his ignorance, recognised that the circus members needed a lighter, more fun adventure for their day. Really, they didn’t need some problem to deal with at all, but his artificial mind wouldn’t be able to comprehend that. Instead, her perused through his old files, looking at the games he’d have planned if a child ever entered the circus, before finally landing on one. Obscure and Explore, a play on Hide and Seek because Caine would never stoop so low as to blatantly copy a game, he always had to put his own spin on things.

With a comically large and loud trumpet, Caine emitted a screeching, piercing sound through the tent, enough to penetrate the walls of each circus’ members room, resulting in some annoyed groaning or horrified screaming. It did work however as one by one, they teetered out of their rooms, knowing better than to go against Caine lest he just become more persistent. Once Zooble finally left their room, Caine figured it would be the best time to explain their new adventure.

“Now, I know all of you critters are a little tired after yesterday, so I’ve managed to prepare something that will be sure to give you your fill of absolutely fantastic fun to make up for that!” He cheered, though no one marched his excitement. Ragatha put on a polite face, which was painfully obvious to everyone except him.

“Thanks, Caine,” Ragatha didn’t know when she started treating Caine like a human, but it helped ease her mind to think of him as the same to them, instead of what he really was, a God amongst the tormented. “What is it?”

“I hope your prepared, my dear, for the first annual Extravagant Obscure and Explore Championship! Here’s how it goes, you’ll be spliced into two groups, one the Obscurers, the other, the Explorers! The Obscurers will have one minute to find a place to hide in the tent before the Explorers have to go looking for them! They’ll have one hour to find all the Obscurers, if they do, they’ll win and if they don’t, their loss!”

It wasn’t the worst idea he’d had, it wasn’t pleasing to Zooble to learn that this was an in-house adventure, they’d already had one of those just two days ago. They did not want to have to deal with the others’ today, especially Caine.

“Isn’t that just hide and seek?” Jax asked, placing a hand on his hip as he gazed at Caine with a disinterested stare.

“No, it’s totally different!!” Caine shrieked, waving a dismissive hand at him. “You’ve never played a game like this in a digital world before, have you? And since I’m making this into an annual competition, you’ll be able to count exactly how many years you’ll spend in here!” Caine explained excitedly, though that didn’t seem to please anyone.

“Uh, don’t do tha-.” Pomni was cut off by a snap of Caine’s fingers, teleporting her across the floor of the circus, with Kinger and Zooble standing beside her. Opposite to them was Jax, Ragatha and Gangle, with Caine floating between them. Jax’s team were all given a vest with a large E on it, and a pair of dentures chomping at the centre of the letter that resembled Caine. Pomni’s team had a large O on it, of which the centre was filled with playing cards, vaguely resembling a face.

“Uh, whose this supposed to b-?” Pomn pointed to her vest though she quickly cut off once again.

“Jax, Ragatha, Gangle, you’ll be the Explorers; Pomni, Kingle and Zooble will be our obscures!” Caine said, a little louder than usual.

“Ugh, do I have to?” Zooble groaned, already trying to rip off their vest, though it proved difficult since their head was a triangle.

“But of course, my dear, if we don’t have you than the teams will be uneven, and Bubble hasn’t been allowed to play since The Incident.” Caine steered into the distance as his tone took on a rare seriousness that almost made the others concerned, but he quickly bounced back.

“Bottom line is, you’ll all be participating today so good luck, my dears,” Caine flicked a few buttons on his Wacky Watch ™ and a large, digital timer was displayed at the top of the tent, set to one minute. “Now, once I disappear this timer will start, so Explorers, close your hide to give the others a chance to hide!” Surprisingly, they all complied though Jax was sure to take peaks whenever Caine wasn’t looking. In an instant, Caine had flushed away and the timer began ticking down and down.

“Well, #{$+ this, I’m going back to my room,” Zooble shrugged dismissively, before walking away from her teammates, leaving Pomni and Kinger alone. Pomni was going to awkwardly offer him a goodbye as she went to hide, but he was already staring off into the distance and shaking violently so instead, she just opened her mouth, closed it again before dashing away.

30 seconds. Pomni didn’t know why she was taking any of this seriously, she should’ve ignored whatever Caine was saying to her, none of it mattered anymore. He was just an AI, a few strings of code that didn’t understand them-hey, that table could be a good hiding spot-who had no idea what they even wanted and was only write one out of a thousand times.

15 seconds. Caine was stubborn and cruel, even if it was unintentional, he didn’t save her time of day, any of their time, even Jax’s. She’d gladly leave him here once she got the chance. Why was she taking this seriously? Why was she currently crawling underneath a fake dining table covered in fake food that barely even fit her? Pomni couldn’t answer that, but it was probably something about seeing Ragatha and Gangle excited to go along with this, for whatever reason.

0 seconds. An annoying beeping filled the tent, the two girls opened their eyes to see Jax’s already wide open.

“Well, I’m off to go find the newbie,” he announced, placing his hands behind his back. He didn’t earn a reaction out of the other two but thankfully for his own ego, he wasn’t focused on them at the moment., so they were spared from any further annoyances. Jax was keen on following Pomni, he knew that she couldn’t be holding up all together after yesterday and thought that this would be his chance to make it a little worse for her. He saw her walking off into a side room, where Caine stored the supplies for the feast Bubble prepared for them a little while ago. Jax was expecting to have to put in a little amount of effort to finding Pomni but it was blatantly obvious when he stepped in, spotting the jester’s legs sticking out from underneath the table instnatly, her red and blue shoes sticking out against the golden polygons that textured the floor.

“Oh gee, I wonder where Pomni could be,” Jax’s uninterested, infantilising voice spread through the near empty room as he hopped up on to the table, pretending to look around while Pomni was painfully aware of how obvious she was now, but trying to shuffle her way fully under the table now would just be pathetic, in her opinion. She was just about to announce herself to Jax sourly, before a gloved hand plunged its finger into the back of her knee.

“I-eeeee!!” Pomni squealed at the touch, her legs blindly kicking about, a blush forming on her cheeks from the noise she just produced.

“Oh, clown girl, is that you? What are you doing under there?” Jax grinned to himself, squeezing Pomni’s knee once again before she could respond, producing another loud squeal as well as getting her to kick her feet against the ground in frustration.

“I-it was for aaaaaadventure, ohohobviously, stop thahat!” Pomni screeched at him, trying to shuffle her way out from underneath the table but it was like her legs had turned to jelly, she couldn’t focus on anything when laughing.

“Stop what? I’m not doing anything!” Jax had to hold back a laugh at Pommi’s frustrated cry, continuing to bully her knees by jabbing his thick, gloved fingers into the back of her knees, or just by giving them a good squeezing.

“Jahahahax, if you don’t stop rihihight #¥$^ing now, I swear-!” Pomni got cut off once again, because apparently no one cares about what she has to say.

“You’ll do what?” Jax asked, his voice wasn’t threatening or teasing, it was just knowing, he knew Pomni wouldn’t end up doing anything to get him back for this, either because she was practically stuck at the moment or because she lacked the confidence to enact revenge. All Pomni do was bury her face in her elbows and let put her frustrated squealing and giggles into them, wildly kicking her legs about in hopes that Jax would just get bored trying to keep up with her. Instead, he just dug his hands even harder to the back of her knees, latching into him as his fingers practically vibrated against her skin.

“Jahahahahahax!!” Pomni cried, satisfying his attention fill for the day. “Quihihihit it!” To her surprise, she actually felt Jax’s tough leave her body, although the phantom tickles did leave her a twitchy mess.

“Well, if your too ticklish to handle it,” he shrugged, already making his way to the door as to not have to deal with the consequences of his actions, “tell Dentures I participated if you see him. Oh, and the aim of Hide and Seek is to not get found, by the way.” Jax added unhelpfully before finally deciding to dash off, leaving Pomni to recover and slowly roll her way out from under the table.

•••

Ragatha unfortunately felt like she had an idea on where to find Zooble. Their room. Well, they did announce pretty loudly so it wasn’t a hard deduction to make, but Ragatha would’ve already known. Zooble had a habit of refusing to take part in Caine’s adventures, one that they made no secret of. Maybe it developed from some deep-rooted hatred they have for the ringmaster, or maybe theyjust preferred being left on their own. Either way, it left Ragatha stumped on how to help them, it seemed like the tasks Caine set them on were the only way to keep them sane, but she didn’t want to be too pushy to her friend. She gave a gentle knock to Zooble’s door, being allowed in once she confirmed that it was her.

“Found you!” Ragatha pointed her fingers at Zooble awkwardly, chuckling a little. They were sitting on their bed, back against the frame of it with their knees curled upwards. “You know, it can’t be good to stay cooped up in here all day.” Ragatha commented lightly, but Zooble averted her gaze from here.

“Yeah, no. I’m not living my life based on what someone else wants me to do, especially some AI.” Zooble huffed, if there’s one thing that they remembered from their life, it was a hatred for authority. Being plunged into a world where they had no control whatsoever, not even of how they looked, not even of their own bodies, was a living nightmare and as far as they were concerned, they could think of a good place where Caine could shove his routines.

“Oh well then…could I stay in here with you?” Ragatha offered gently, shocking Zooble lightly, having expected to be met with nothing but persistence. Luckily even Ragatha managed to see that Zooble didn’t need an elaborate adventure right now, maybe just a friend. Wordlessly, Zooble patted a spot next to them on the bed to which Ragatha took delightedly.

“Do you want some help getting that vest off?” Ragatha offered and Zooble immediately felt like a weight has been lifted, happily sighing and breaking out in a rare smile.

“Please,” they confirmed, meekly raising their arms above their head to allow Ragatha to relieve them of their clothing. She got to work immediately, grabbing the cuffs of the sleeves, starting to worm their way up Zooble’s awkwardly shaped arms. Rags that didn’t mess the way Zooble shuddered as her fingers ended up brushing up against what could only be described as Zooble’s armpits.

“Ticklish?” She asked with a small smile, and a tone she found she hadn’t genuinely used in a while.

“Don’t you dare.” Zooble warned them, though after years and years of putting up with Zooble’s rejections, Ragatha could tell that this wasn’t one of their serious grievances, just a playful dispute between friends.

“Oh, but how could I not?” Ragatha lamented with a playful grin, before deciding to plunge her nails into Zooble’s sides. Their skin felt akin to a bean bag, squish able and filled with…something. Zooble let a shriek before bouncing back against the top of her bed frame, wriggling about against Ragatha’s fingers as they kicked their legs back and forth.

“Nohohoho!” They whined, not able to remember the last time she had laughed, or shrieked this much but it felt oddly right in this moment.

“Wow, your such a squirmer, Zoobs!” Ragatha commented playfully, crawling down her fingers to the little bit of torso left exposed by Zooble’s vest, sliding her fingers against the pudgy skin. Zooble couldn’t keep their arms raised any longer, gently batting away at Ragatha’s arms as they whined beneath their breath.

“I’m a fihihihghter!” They corrected her, a few darker shades of violet appearing on their pink face. Ragatha stayed determined however, drilling her thumbs into Zooble’s tummy, which was proving to be a very sensitive spot for the poor enby. Zooble covered their face with their hands to the best of their ability.

“No fair, lemme say that smile!” Ragatha promoted her by jabbing her fingers into Zooble’s armpits, causing them to let out a wild cry and jolt upwards on the bed. Their arms immediately crashed down, wriggling against their sides and trapping Ragatha’s fingers. Zooble tilted their head away from Ragatha slightly, a genuine, happy smile on their mismatched face, with adorable giggles pouring out of it to top it off.

“Adorable.” Ragatha commented gently, circling her fingers against Zooble’s armpits for another few moments before stopping, leaving them a little more than flustered from the whole ordeal. While Zooble was still recovering from the sudden tickling session, Ragatha worked on removing their vest from them, triumphantly pulling it over their head before tossing it across the floor. Zooble leaned their body against Ragatha’s a little, just enough so that their shoulders were touching with Zooble still curled in on themselves.

“I..uh, thank, you know, for all of that,” Zooble commented, staring at a random spot on their bed, not needing to look at Ragatha to know that they were smiling gratefully.

•••

Gangle, armed with their comedy mask, began striding through the tent on her search for Kinger, given that her other two teammates had already went off looking for Pomni and Zooble. Even though Kinger was going to be the hardest to find, Gangle didn’t actually mind that. She got time alone when wandering through the tent, no fear of having her comedy mask being shattered, simply able to put her mind on the task at hand. And credit where credit is due, Kinger was the best Obscurer of their bunch, but time wasn’t an issue in the circus.

Gangle stopped as she noticed something that she probably should’ve taken note of before, a pillow fort, right in front of the stage, with some small muttering and rambling coming from inside. She manoeuvred her way over to the entrance of the smooth, soft cyan and white pillows, swinging her way inside.

“Found you, Kinger!” She announced cheerfully, hunched over in the comfortable spot, able to see Kinger sitting curled up in the corner. For a few moments, he simply sat there in silence looking at her, as if he was zoned out but he was quickly dragged back to reality.

“AHHHHHHHH-oh it’s just you, Gangle.” Kinger smiled once he came to his senses, Gangle initially jumped back startled from his scream but managed to relax. “What are we doing?” He asked, tilting his head.

“Kinger, we were all playing Hide and Seek!” Gangle whined, a little annoyed at herself that it took her so long to find someone who wasn’t even hiding before giggling a little at the fact that he was the person who took the longest to find.

“Oh, well, I found you!” Kinger announced, earning yet another giggle from Gangle.

“It’s the other way around, silly!” Gangle exclaimed, lightly poking Kinger in the side, to which he almost comically bounced back, practically lunging across the cozy fort. The two just stared at each other for a moment, Gangle half ready to apologise but Kinger beat her to it.

“A-ha, my apologies, Gangle, it’s been a while since I was tickled.” Even the word came off of his tongue awkwardly, like it hadn’t been used in a while. When was the last time he’d been tickled? It must’ve been when he was with…

As Kinger searched through his already forgetful mind, Gangle scooted over to him, a little bit of curiosity twinkling through their mask. They extended one of their ribbon-esque arms towards the man, before carefully wrapping it around his stomach beneath his robe. Kinger was too lost in thought to take note of the touch, only beginning to notice it once Gangle began circling her arm around his waist.

“Pfft-ahahahah, Gahahahangle!!” He cried out, curling in on himself even more, but nothing he could do could pull himself free of Gangle’s mischievous arm.

“Sorry Kings, this is just too cute!” Gangle announced, a delightful expression spreading across her mask, adoration being evident in her pitch black eyes.

“I dohohohn’t mind!’ Kinger admitted casually. “Just a bihihit perplexed abohohout why yohohour doing this!” Kinger asked, deciding now was going to be one of his moments where he’d be incredibly perceptive. Gangle paused for a moment in consideration before leaning against Kinger in a comfortable embrace, keeping her arms wrapped around him.

“You just seemed like you haven’t had attention like this in a while…I thought you could use it.” Gangle figuratively let down her mask, finding a chance to be vulnerable on her own terms with Kinger. His eyes squinted in gratitude whilst placing a disembodied hand atop Gangle’s head.

“Thanks, kiddo.”

••••

“Haha, Bubble, that is-that is not funny, that’s tragic.” The remnants of Caine and Bubble’s conversation seeped back into the tent as Caine teleported the two of them back their, ready to check in on the results of his latest adventure. It seemed like the Obscurers were doing their job very well at first glance since he couldn’t see any of them, only catching sight of Jax. Caine immediately flew down next to him, planting his cane on the ground next to the rabbit’s feet.

“Jax, my boy, how’s the adventure go?! Did you have fun?!” Caine asked, and if Jax didn’t know better, he wouldn’t of recognised the desperation in his voice, or in Caine’s widened eyes, fixed on him. Jax simply waved a hand dismissively at the ringleader.

“Oh yeah, Teeth, I definitely had fun!” Jax grinned, more than usual as he choose his wording carefully.

“Fantabulous! Where are the others?! I need to congratulate and/or degrade them for their victory/defeat!” Caine said, gazing around the room. Jax stared him down for a few moments, then looked around the room before shrugging.

“They uh, pretty sure most of them are resting right now. Why not surprise them with that bright and early tomorrow morning?” Jax suggested, already feeling amused as he imagined their reactions.

“Jax, your a genius!” Caine cried, shaking his hand gratefully before floating back up into the air. “Well, I won’t interrupt your rest either, my dear, have a lovely night and remember; I’m always watching!” And with a snap of his fingers, Caine was gone again and Jax was alone. He stared at the empty space where Caine was, then around once more. Casually, he turned and began striding with confidence, stuffing his hands in his pockets.

“Oi, Pomni, your not still on the floor like an idiot, are you? Come on, I wanna see how much damage we can do to Caine’s stuff before he gets back!”

day 6: ✨ pet names ✨

UUUGGHHH this is so good! 😭❤️

First off, LOVE the idea of Ragatha being a mean Ler. Especially when it come to Jax, who deserves that shit more than anyone else there 😂

I may or may not have squealed a bit at the thumping part 😂 I have a bunny myself, and the little rage thumps are the cutest things in the world. Favorite part.

Loved that Gangle was low key going along with it too. 10/10 🐰🤍❤️

Maybe I did, Maybe I didn’t.

Welcome! To my first Digital Circus Fanfic! This one took wayyyy longer than expected cause I had to basically rewrite Jax after episode two. \O-0/

Please enjoy, and let me know if you want more of these goobers. I’d be happy to write for them again.

So… without further a-due!

————————————————————————

“A-Alright Crybaby get off will ya?” Jax sighed as he stumbled around attempting to untangle himself from Gangle’s ribbons.

“I uh… I-I-I’m sorry! I just… I didn’t!” Gangle stuttered in a panic.

“Yeah yeah… *SQUAK*-ing whatever! Just- Get off of me!” Jax groaned over as his leg got caught.

“Um.. O-Ok…I’ll try……” Gangle mumbled fidgeting and squirming as she tried to unwrap herself from around Jax…

A few minutes passed with no luck and Jax was getting impatient.

“Whats the hold up?” Jax asked straining his neck to look back at Gangle.

“I-I I’m trying! I can’t- Jax, I think I’m stuck!” Gangle gasped as she pulled at her ribbons beginning to panic.

“Oh you have gotta be *BLOOP*-ing kidding me!” Jax groaned angrily. Jax sighed in annoyance squirming around where he stood trying to untangle himself while Gangle tried to tug and pull.

“Ow! Jax! Th-That hurts!-“

“Stop squirming!”

“Ugggh! Just- let me try to…

“GYAAAH! AHH! Watch the tail! Watch the tail!” Jax yelped stumbling back - clumsily tripping over his own two feet falling to the circus floor with a loud thud.

“Jax! Oh my gosh! Are you ok?!” Gangle gasped as uncovering her eyes to see a rather annoyed rabbit. Jax let out a huff of annoyance. “Ok, this isn’t working…”

“Sh-Should we go find Caine?… He might know what to do…”

“Weren’t ya listening this morning? He said he’s busy all day and won’t be around, something about working on a new project or something…” Jax reminded the ribbony circus member.

“O-Oh… r-right… um… what about Zooble?”

“Oh *SPLAT* no! They’ll never let me live this down!” Jax refused as he struggled to sit up. “And before you ask, Kinger is out of the question… he’ll just make it worse.” Jax continued.

“Well then who do you suggest?”

——

Ragatha sleepily rolled over in her warm bed snuggling deeper under the covers. It was a day off from all of Caine’s crazy adventures so why not sleep in?

The doll sighed in content as she began to doze off again but jumped out of her relaxed state when she suddenly heard frantic knocking on her bedroom door. She slowly and sluggishly climbed off her bed and made her way to the door.

“I swear if this is Jax with another bug I am going to abstract…” She sighed rubbing her eyes as she opened the door.

As the light form the hallway filled her room she was greeted with a sight she was definitely not expecting…Jax with a rather unamused look on his face had one arm pinned to his chest and the other to his side from Gangle’s signature red shiny ribbons wrapped tightly around his torso. To say Jax and Gangle were in a tight spot… was an understatement.

“Jax!? W-What did you do?!” Ragatha asked with an cross expression.

“This isn’t what is looks like Rags! Just-“ Jax began but was quickly interupted by Gangle.

“Ragatha! Help! I-I’m stuck!” While Ragatha was worried for her friends, well… Gangle at least. She couldn’t help the amused smile coming on her face I mean… it was a little funny.

“Shut it Dollface.” Jax snapped awkwardly pointing a gloved finger at her… well, as best he could in his current position.

“I didn’t say anything.” She chuckled looking at the two of them up and down. “Do I… even wanna know how this happened?” Ragatha questioned gesturing to the two’s current predicament. She honestly was somewhat eager to hear what Jax did this time to cause this mess.

“Look, all I did was scare crybaby and she wrapped herself around me in a panic.” Jax explained in an annoyed tone. There it was.

“Well serves you right Jax… How many times have I told you NOT to scare her!” Ragatha sighed pointing an angry plush finger at the rabbit. Jax just rolled his eyes at her scolding.

“So… I’m assuming you two need my help?” Ragatha asked leaning against the door frame.

“No!”

“Yes!”

“Ugh, fine just- I swear Rags if you tell ANYONE about this, I’ll fill your pillows with centipedes!” Jax threatened as Ragatha welcomed the two into her room.

“I wouldn’t be making threats right now if I were you mister...” Ragatha smirked as she closed the door and flicked on the room light.

“Tsk- Whatever.” Jax grumbled sitting down criss cross on the plush rug. Ragathe inspected how badly Gangle had tangled herself around the prankster. She circled her friends in search of where to start…

“Wow, you two really are stuck huh?” She stated settling on a knot behind Jax’s back. She kneeled down and began fiddling with the knot.

“Alright, I think I can get you free… just stay still you two…” Ragatha reassured her friends, trailing her finger along the length of the ribbons around Jax’s back closely checking the grooves and knots to find a place that might give. She saw Jax’s fur stand up slightly as she started undoing the knots

“You alright Jax?” Ragatha askes.

“Uh y-yeah, just-“ Jax felt Gangle’s ribbons begin to shake and squirm against him. “Huh? Gangle! Quit squirmin’ you’ll make it worse!” Jax deadpanned as her grip tightened around him.

“S-Sorry, R-Ragathat that tihickles a little…” Gangle whined as the doll fiddled with her ribbons.

“Oh you have got to be kiddin’ me…” Jax rolled his eyes.

“Heheh, sorry Gangle…” Ragatha smiled with endearment as the she continued to quietly snicker nuzzling her face into Jax’s chest trying to muffle her giggling.

“What the- Hey!” Jax grumbled.

“Hmmm ok.. lets try this knot…” Ragatha chuckled as Gangle’s giggles died down.

“Geez Crybaby, never woulda guessed you would be so ticklish… might have to tell the rest of the crew about this after all~” Jax teased with his usual cheeky smirk.

“Nooooo! Jaaaax!” Gangle whined burying her face even deeper into his chest, making the rabbit laugh. Gangle was always so easy to tease it was hilarious…

“Jax, don’t be mean.” Ragatha frowned as she managed to get another knot undone allowing Jax a little more wiggle room.

“There we go… does that feel any better??” Ragatha asked.

“Y-Yeah…” Gangle mumbled. Ragatha took that as confirmation to keep going and she scooted over to Jax’s side.

“How are you doing Jax?” The doll asked.

“Just peachy Dollface…” Jax replied with a huff.

“Hmmm… ok give me a second…” Ragatha’s finger glided along the ribbons against his side trying to follow the trail to find the source of the knots. Jax stiffined at the touch, and reflexively jerked away a little from the doll’s hand. Ragatha looked at Jax with a raised brow.

“Uh… heheh- G-Gettin’ a little handsy there aren’t ya Rags?…” Jax chuckled trying to take focus off of himself. He smirked when he saw Ragatha’s face flush in annoyance.

“No! I- Ugh, as If! I swear you’re so immature Jax…” Ragatha rolled her eyes making Jax smile brighter. Jax jumped a little with a strained gasp when Ragatha placed her hand back at his side gently gliding along the purple fur.

Jax shivered biting his lip as Ragatha’s fingers traveled upwards to his neck. Jax’s usual smile grew wobbly as he felt Ragatha’s fingers dance across the sensitive area.

“Jax? Are you sure you’re ok? You’re all squirmy…” Gangle asked looking up at the rabbit. While Jax may not remember everything from his human life… like his face or name… he definitely remembers how sensitive he is and always has been… his sides being a particularly bad spot. Which explains why he jolted as if being electrocuted as Ragatha wiggled her finger under a ribbon on his ribs, trying to loosen it. He turned his body away from her hand.

“Jax?” Ragatha asked noticing how tense and squirmy the rabbit had gotten all of the sudden.

“Its n-nothing! I-I’m fine!…” Jax snapped. There was a pause between the two of them, both refusing to speak before the other. Jax sighed as his ears drooped slightly.

“Look… I got a lot of stuff to do today so just- GAAEEE!” Jax suddenly screeched - his ears shooting up straight as he clamped his arm down over top of Ragatha’s fingers, which were now under his arm. His own cheeks flushed, glancing at Ragatha before he turned his gaze away.

“Well well, looks like Gangle isn’t the only ticklish one here hm?” Ragatha teased, making Gangle giggle. Seeing the smirk on her face Jax couldn’t bring himself to snap back at the doll. All he gave as a response was a huff of annoyance, as he continued to look in the opposite direction.

“Heheh, not denying it?” Ragatha smirked poking his cheek making Jax groan.

“Tsk, W-Whatever Rags… Just- Just watch it will ya!?” Jax growled refusing to look at her. He wasn’t even aware tickling was a thing in this digital world… until about five minutes ago that is…let alone it’s accuracy to the real thing… This wasn’t even his real body! So why did it feel so real…? He was drawn out of his thoughts by Ragatha’s small chuckle at his embarrassment. He eyed her closely as she reached for his side again but Jax flinched away. “What? Don’t trust me?~” Ragatha teased wiggling her fingers tauntingly. The purple rabbit’s cheeks grew darker as he squirmed away from the hands that where drawing closer, his nerves sending anticipatory ticklish shocks up his spine.

“Greaah! H-Hey!” Jax squeaked bending his torso away from her approaching hand. Gangle and Ragatha both giggled at his reaction. Jax could feel their eyes on him as he glanced away once again.

“Geez- How sensitive are you?” Ragatha teased putting her hands in her hips.

“N-None of yohour business!” Jax snapped through a few giggles.

“Ohok ok, I’ll stop.” Ragatha smiled. Jax let out a breath he didn’t realize he was holding as she went back to her original task. A few minutes went by and Ragatha saw Jax beginning to relax again while she worked on a knot on his shoulder.

“Ok… almost got it…” Ragatha smiled fiddling with the small knot. Jax made a small hum in acknowledgement and sighed - relieved this would all be over soon.

“So, what have we learned from this experience?” Ragatha spoke looking at Jax, who was still gazing over at the wall…

“Jax…” Ragatha pressed with a warning tone moving so she was in his field of view. Jax only looked the other way refusing to make eye contact…

“Awww whats the matter? Why won’t you look at me?“ She teased, still no response from her rabbit counterpart aside from an irritated huff.

“Is someone a little embarrassed?~” She pressed booping his nose making the rabbit groan.

“Come on Jax~ What did we learn?” Ragatha giggled threateningly wiggling her plush fingers at him making the purple rabbit tense.

“D-Dollface!- cut it out! ! I-I’m warning you!” Jax stuttered his arms closley pinning to his body as his usual grin grew to a far more nervous one.

“And what will you do Jax? You’re not exactly in prime condition to fight back or even stop me for that matter…” She smirked playfully resting her hands on his sides not moving them yet just to fluster him further.

Jax felt his cheeks burn once again, for once he was grateful for his purple fur as it covered the embarrassingly warm hue that tinted his cheeks. He wasn’t used to being so flustered… He’s the one thats supposed to milk reactions out of others! Not the other way around! Jax squirmed as he used his feet to push himself back and away from the doll. If he wasn’t all tangled up by Gangle he would have just booked it but that obviously wasn’t an option, so the next best thing? Threatening of course… right?

“R-Rags! *SPLAT* Dohon’t do this! I’ll uh… I’ll- I’ll tell Kinger you stole his bug collection!” Ragatha smirked as she got closer. She’d never admit it, but seeing such a panicked and childish expression on the prankster rabbit’s face was quite amusing.

“Like I said before Jax, I wouldn’t be making threats while in your position.” Ragatha smiled gently squeezing his furry sides just below his ribs.

“Ah! *BONK* Gaahaa! No wahait!” Jax shrieked curling in on himself best he could in his current situation.

“Aw whats the matter Jax? Is the cocky bunny boy a little ticklish?~” The doll snickered.

“C-Cohome ohon Dollface! Th-This isn’t fuhunny!!” Jax giggled trying and failing to push her hands away.

“Hmmm, well I’m not the one laughing here am I, Giggles?” Ragatha teased letting her fingers explore up and down his sensitive sides eventually settling under his arms.

Jax’s laugh was different from how she expected. It was nothing like his usual sinister chuckle or evil cackle he released almost on a daily basis. This laugh sounded far more innocent, childlike even. It was almost endearing… almost.

“*BONK!* nohohoho! D-Dohohon’t cahall me thahat!!” Jax shrieked lowering his head trying to hide his face.

His laughter began to grow more frantic as she found a little sweet spot right at the base of his inner arm.

“Ahh! *BOING* Nononohohohoho! Rahags cohome on!” The rabbit shrieked arching his back in attempts to escape the unbearable sensation.

“Aww why not~ Don’t like that name? How about Gigglebug, or Chucklehead? Hmmm oh! What about Snickers?” Ragatha smirked pinching up and down his ribs.

“Eeheheha! F-F*Boing* Yohohou!! GyaAHAAH Nohohoho! Nohot the neck nohot the neheheck!!” Jax squealed scrunching his shoulders up as his laughter grew higher in pitch. Ragatha brought her plush hands up against the soft fur of the rabbit’s neck searching for a spot that would make his squeal.

“But Jax, Your fur is just so soft here, How can I not? Just look how fluffy!” The doll smiled using both her hands to gently scritch under his chin and at the sides of his neck. God out of everyone in the circus Ragatha was one of the last people Jax would think to be so ruthless! He hasn’t been teased this relentlessly since he was a child. Even though he couldn’t remember their faces, he remembers the many times he was tickled by his family back in the real world while growing up, mostly for being a little *Splat*.

Ragatha smirked fluttering her plush fingers under his chin excruciatingly light. Jax’s laughter died down to little squeals and giggles as he tossed his head from side to side, his ears flopping about. Ragatha laughed as she saw Jax’s foot begin to thump against the floor as his laughter began to grow more panicked and squeaky the higher her fingers went.

“Haha! I know! I’ll call you Thumper! How does that sound?” She snickered.

“N-nohoho!! F-*Boing* YOHOU! A-and F-*Squish* yohohour nihicknAHAHAMES!!” Jax screeched as his squirming intensified when her fingers found his ears.

“Gyaaahaahaa!! Rags- Wait wait wahahahait! Ahaha! Sh-*boing*! Th-Thahat feheheels sohoho wehEHEHEIRD!!” Jax snorted.

“Pfft! D-Did you just snort Jax?” gangle giggled as Ragatha’s fingers continued to lightly dance along the base of his ears.

“N-NohohohOHOHO!?” Jax denied as small tears of mirth began to appear at the corners of his eyes.

“Stahahap wihith the ehehears alreadyhyhy!!” Jax begged instinctively bringing his shoulders up higher, though it did nothing to ease the ticklish feeling.

“Heheh ok I’ll be nice… hmmm, where should I try instead? Any ideas Jax?” She cooed giving the rabbit a break.

“I-I’m gonna kihill you Rags…” Jax deadpanned through heaves of air.

“Oh! How about I get this fluffly little tummy of your! Hows that sound?“ Ragatha smirked in a teasing tone, her playful big sister side coming into full fruition as she darted her fingers to his belly. Despite the barrier of fabric that lay between his sensitive skin and her tickling fingers, the sensation and the reaction it produced was nothing short of overwhelming.

“N-NohohohOAHAHAHAH! Sh*Sploink*! NAHAHT THEHERE!” Jax laughed tossing his head back against the wall as he melted to the floor like butter.

“Heheh… awww look at you laugh! Isn’t this just the cutest thing?” The doll complimented only making his ears tint pink.

“SHUHUHUHUT UHUHUHUP!” The purple character wheezed kicking and squirming his body as she gently poked and prodded at the sensitive area.

“Hehe! I think you found his tickle spot.” Gangle giggled as the Rabbits’s laughter evolved into belly laughs when Ragatha dug her plush fingers into the rabbit’s tummy vibrating them against the fluff. Jax wheezed kicking his legs. Ragatha smiled, she sometimes forgot how young Jax actually was. He was only 22, still a young adult really… he barely had any time to really experience being grown up before being thrown into such a hellish place, and while he was immature… she couldn’t really blame him… His laughter only further proved how young he was, full of voice cracks and squeals.

“OHOHOK! Ohohok! I GIHIVE! I’m sohorry Gangle! I- I wohon’t scahare yohohou anymohore AHAHA!” Jax cackled rolling on his side trying to protect himself. That was all Ragatha needed to hear. So she lifted her fingers off of the rabbit and Jax’s laughter died back down to giggles as he began attempting to regain his composure.

Jax opened one of his eyes to glare at her but Jax could sense the playfulness and lack of ill intent, annoyance, or even frustration with him… on her face and that somehow stopped him?… and as mad as he tried to make it seem he was… Ragatha could tell he had fun.

“Heh… You’re ticklish everywhere huh?” The doll smiled. Jax slumped down against the wall taking in deep breaths of air.

After a minute or two Jax’s breathing began to return to normal and he finally fully looked up at Ragatha with a flushed face.

“W-What?!” Jax asked as she continued to stare at him.

“Heh, nothing… you’re just cute.”

“Ugh ew! Don’t start with that now!” Jax groaned still regaining his breath pushing her back with his foot.

“Hehey! Look no hard feelings, I had to take this opportunity didn’t I? When else would I have gotten the chance to get some revenge for all your pranks huh?” Ragatha smirked crossing her arms.

“And don’t even try telling me you wouldn’t do the exact same to me if the roles were reversed.” The doll smirked poking his nose.

“Grrrr… Ok… th-thats fair I guess…” Jax lamented in defeat he honestly didn’t have the energy to fight back right now...

“I will have my revenge Rags, don’t you worry…” Jax threatened.

“Yeah yeah, I’m sure you will… Now I think its about time we untangle this mess.” Ragatha smiled gently grabbing a loose end of Gangles ribbon and gently pulling on it sending the two circus members rolling across the floor as Gangle unravelled from around Jax in one long motion.

“There we go, all done, you two ok?” Ragatha asked with a sympathetic smile.

“Wha-?! How did?! Oh you slippery little *Boing*! You knew how to untangle us all along didn’t you?!” Jax accused pointing a finger at the doll.

“Maybe I did, Maybe I didn’t…” She smirked getting up off the floor and dusting herself off. “Heheh. Wait here, I’ll go get you some water.” She smiled and left her two friends on the floor.

“We never speak of this again, understood Crybaby?” Jax warned pointing a finger at the ribbon circus member.

“R-right…”

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

"Raaaags! Ragathaaaaa! Rags, talk to meeeeeee!" The rabbit whined pathetically as he flopped face first to the floor to add to his dramatics.

Ragatha crossed her arms and stared blankly in front of her. She'd be damned if she gave into his theatrics after the stunt he pulled yesterday.

Pomni tip-toed her way over to the doll, careful to gauge her mood before speaking up.

"You're- uh- still not talking to Jax, huh?" The jester tried.

To no one's surprise, Jax pulled some underhanded shit during yesterday's game. Thankfully, that game was more tame than the usual as Caine decided to make all of them play a rather distorted version of 'capture the flag', only the playing field was covered in thick black tar-like substance, which made the game slower and over all less fun but Caine did say he was experimenting with ideas.

Long story short, Ragatha had gotten the other team's flag and was about to win before Jax thought it'd be clever to use poor Gangle as a lasso and trip Ragatha by her ankle. Causing her to fall face first into the gooey substance.

So yeah, Ragatha understandably ignored the purple prick for the rest of the day and supposedly the silent treatment carried onto this morning.

Ragatha scoffed at the question. "I have nothing to say to that jerk. Whatever Caine has planned for us to do today, I'm not saying a word to him." She said making direct eye contact with said jerk. Pomni swore she saw his ears go down a bit.

They both knew that wouldn't last. If there's one thing anyone knew about Jax, is that he can't survive without attention. And Lord, was he the biggest attention seeker Pomni's ever seen. Jax would just dedicate the entire day to pushing Ragatha's buttons until she snapped, earning everyone's attention as well as winning whatever sick game he'd imagined in his head.

Caine appeared not two minutes later and the cast proceeded with their little theme song as usual and afterwards, the ringmaster explained the rules of today's little adventure.

Another safe one, thank God. Pomni thought. Perhaps the man was starting to notice how strung out everyone had become and decided to cut them some slack.

Today's game was a timed scavenger hunt throughout the circus, with two separate teams taking turns in the main room to find the mising items as quick as possible while the other team waited in the hallway for their turn. They were split up into two teams. Ragatha instantly grabbed Pomni's hand and not even a split second later, Jax flung himself at the doll and screamed for Caine to team them up together.

Gangle, Kinger, and Zooble's team went first, which meant the other three were poofed into a random hallway away from the action.

Awkward.

Pomni fidgeted due to the tense atmosphere. Jax of course, took his chance to bug the shit out of the other girl. First trying to make conversation, then teasing her, then poking, shaking, singing, yelling, joking, flopping round again, but nothing seemed to break the doll's focus. Ragatha rolled her eyes at his theatrics before shooting them over to Pomni.

"Sheesh, these games have been real tame and non life-threatening lately right, Pomni? Seems like Caine's finally decided to cut us all a break!" She forced a laugh as she nudged the other girl.

Pomni looked rather taken aback by the sudden conversations but decided to play along nonetheless. "O-oh. Right. I-uh, really enjoy not being in danger for once, yknow?" She laughed nervously.

The rabbit shot up as the two continued their bland conversation, annoyed that he was being ignored completely.

Pomni felt rather proud of herself when Ragatha laughed at one of her jokes, her victory was short-lived however, letting out a yelp as she was suddenly yanked in the air by her underarms.

"HEY!-" She panicked and squirmed, having to force down a rather embarrassing noise that threatened to come out of her throat.

"Whatcha two ladies talkin' about?"Jax had that stupid smug grin on he always wore when he thought he was being smart. Ragatha, obviously, was not amused but threw in the towel anyways as it wasn't fair to Pomni to get her any more involved with their little spat any more than she already was.

"Put her down, Jax." The doll demanded.

Pomni tried to grab at the rabbit's gloved hands as she kicked her feet in the air. "Whaaaaaat? We’re just having a little fun is all! Ain’t that right, Pomni?”

The jester grunted and allowed her limbs to go limp, it was obvious she wasn’t gonna get free by herself and didn’t want to risk entertaining the rabbit any further.

“This is not fun for me. Please put me doWN!!!-“

Pomni’s entire body went rigid as soon as that prick started wriggling his fingers under her arms.

She was able to keep her laughter in for all of maybe half a second before exploding in hysterical laughter. The awful sensation causing her to thrash almost twice as hard now.

“Why laugh if you’re not having any fun, Bug Eyes?” Jax laughed along with her, pleased with the strong reaction.

Ragatha was still stone-faced, however, sighing as she moved to release the other girl.

“Jeez you really can’t go five minutes without bullying someone can you?” The doll grunted as she wrestled with the rabbits long ass arms. Jumping in the air a few times when he decided to hold Pomni straight over his head.

Ragatha was getting increasingly annoyed, Pomni was getting more hysterical by the minute, and of course Jax looked like he was having the time of his life.

But you know what? Two can play at that game.

“Gohohod! You two are hilarious. Say Rags, this almost reminds me of the time Caine had you screaming in the air for saying- OOMF!”

The wind knocked out of Jax’s throat as he was full-on tackled to the floor.

Thankfully, this gave Pomni the chance to escape but was still on top of the rabbit’s hands as she tried to compose herself.

“What the &!$@%# Rags?! I was just messing around, there’s no reason to get all pis-“

“Hold his wrists, Pomni.”

That was all the warning they got before the doll’s hands latched onto Jax’s hips and began tickling him mercilessly.

The high pitch scream that tore from his throat probably would’ve made the jester fall into another fit of laughter if she weren’t so taken aback by it herself.

Thankfully she caught up to speed in time to get a hold of the rabbit’s hands that were desperately trying to free themselves.

“WAIT!!- WAIT WAHAHAHAIT!!!- RAGAHAHAHAHAAA-“

Oh my God he’s &!$@%# losing it. Pomni thought as she observed the poor guys reactions.

It was quite a sight to see fucking Jax of all people go berserk over something as simple as tickling. It was a little unnerving to be honest.

What was even scarier was Ragatha’s face hadn’t changed from the ice cold scowl she’s had on since Jax started all this shit.

She looked kinda angry.

“pleheheheAHAHAHA!!-“ Jax wheezed. “You cahAHAHAHAN’T- You cahahahahan’t just- BWAHAHAHAHAAA!!!-“

“Oh so it’s only fair for you to pick on people huh?” Ragatha spat. “Y'know I think everyone here’s had about enough of your &!$@%#, Jax. You wanted attention that bad? Well here you go! Let’s see how you like being bullied for once.”

Her hands migrated down to his upper thighs, the doll now settling her weight on his calves. Giving the rabbit just enough leeway to twist and buck his hips like crazy.

Though he seemed to be breathing a bit easier with the change in spots, didn’t mean he still wasn’t absolutely losing his mind here.

“ahh…ahahaHAHAHAHehe- ohkahahay! Okay! I’m sohohorry! Is that what you guys wanna hear?! I’ll bahahahack ohohoff. Juhuhust- JUST!!-“

“You sure all this is okay? He’s starting to seem a bit lightheaded.” Pomni asked, more than a little concerned at the guy’s state despite what he’d pulled earlier. She knew they didn’t technically need to breathe but that only means this situation must be really messing with him.

Ragatha looked up and stilled her hands before withdrawing them completely.

“Trust me, he’s fine. We’ve put his sorry ass through a lot worse. And he would’ve kept tormenting you until Caine came in to stop him so he deserves everything he gets.” She explained as she got up from her spot on Jax’s legs and made her way over to where Pomni was stationed over their victim’s head.

The brief intermission allowed Jax to gather his bearings and a bit of his audacity too it seemed like.

“Yohohou…*huff*… You two are going to regret this. D-Dohohohon’t think for a second that you won anything. After all there’s plenty of centipedes for me to-AAAAA!!!!”

That ungodly shriek was almost worse than the first one. The jerk didn’t even get to finish his little vow for revenge before Ragatha dropped back down to scribble, squeeze, and prob rapidly over her victim’s belly.

“I know you can’t fathom the feeling, Jax, but I was going to be nice and call it quits there. But you just don’t know when to. Shut. Your. TRAP!!”

Pomni couldn’t help herself from laughing this time. With nothing pinning the poor guy’s legs down, they were flying through the air in every direction while he screamed like a little girl.

Seriously, Pomni doubted even she could reach that kind of pitch.

The whole things was just ridiculous to watch. She was sure her ears were bleeding by now but she couldn’t help the full on belly laughter that forced its way out of her.

Ragatha looked over at her friend as she doubled over in laughter. It was at that point, Ragatha truly realized how ridiculous this entire situation was and that scowl she had permanently plastered on her face finally bloomed into a smile as she too began to laugh.

Another ear-piercing screech and they were both done.

The two of them simultaneously lost their hold on their victim as they fell to the floor, rolling and clutching their stomachs as bouts of laughter poured out of them.

Jax layed there for a while, absolutely mortified at this entire ordeal. He began plotting his revenge almost immediately, if only to keep himself sane while hearing those two &!$@%# laugh at him.

Okay, maybe he wasn’t fond of all the attention he received.

Just as the girl’s laughter was starting to die down, a voice boomed through the hallway.

“Terribly sorry for the wait, friends! It appears that there’s been a rather embarrassing oversight on my part! You see, I told the others that I’ve hidden five items but instead only hid four! The fifth one was in my POCKET!-“

Caine explained as he pulled a rubber duck out of his pocket. Stopping himself abruptly seeing the state his other three guests were in.

Was it that funny? The ringmaster asked himself at hearing the two girl’s laughter finally dying down. That was before he saw Jax, still sprawled out on the floor and decided he didn’t really want to know.

“Does this mean we forfeit?” Jax slurred lazily.

“Nonsense!” Caine announced, deciding to ignore the his guest’s disappointed groans. “This just means we have to start a new game! You all seemed to LOVE playing ‘Capture the Flag’ yesterday! So I thought, why not give it another GO-“

Ragatha threw her shoe at the ringmaster before he even finished his statement. Of course, this prompted another bout of laughter from both Pomni and Jax this time.

Unfortunately, Caine took all of that as enthusiasm and prepared their little field from yesterday.

Pomni wasn’t certain if those two were gonna bring their bad energy back on the field, not to mention Jax was no doubt itching for payback right about now.

One thing was for certain, though. Pomni was staying the &!$@%# out of it this time.
