c-tickler...
This is an idea I had for a Lara Croft tickle story, sort of a "bad day in the life of Lara" tale. If there's anything you like in the story as a potential illo, please feel free to do it...
"When Animals Tickle"
Pursued by the dreaded Kitchi-Koo Tribe, Lara manages to escape their clutches by taking refuge inside a fallen tree... but that's when things go from completely bad to disasterously worse. When she tries to free herself from the tree, Lara quickly finds that she is stuck... only her feet are able to move a little.
Lara tries to kick her way loose of the tree, but that only draws the attention of a pack of monkeys. Curious, the monkeys start tugging on Lara's boots, managing to pull them from her feet. Growing bolder, the monkeys start pawing, sniffing, licking and tickling Lara's feet, which drives her insane with laughter. After what seems like an eternity, the primates lose interest in their tickle game and leave Lara in peace.
It tooks Lara several minutes to calm down from the effects of hours of relentless tickling. Once she has her wits about her, Lara again tries kicking her way out of the log, but as she starts, she begins to feel the strange sensation as if her skin were crawling. It was then she realizes that all of the insect life that makes the fallen tree their home are on the move... across almost every inch of her sensitive flesh. Ants, beetles, spiders, termites, etc. are crawling on her and she is totally unable to stop it. The monkeys, focusing just on her extremely ticklish feet, were bad enough... but this is beyond belief. It feels like she has a thousand itches all over her body from neck to toe, itches that she is unable to scratch. And with each passing moment, those itches start feeling more and more like tickles. Lara tries to put the sensations out of her head, but she just can't do it. Her regularly stoic expression soon turns to a grin, then the grin to a smile. Soon a few giggles escape from her lips, then more and more and more until finally exploding into helpless laughter. Compared to this, Lara could have taken days of the monkeys playing with her feet. As untold numbers of insects go about their normal business, Lara can only howl with laughter as ticklish sensations move across her soles, between her toes and up her long legs. The tickling up and down her sides, across her stomache and around her navel are even worse, if that is possible. And whatever creatures are wriggling their way through her squeezed shut armpits must surely come from some kind of Tickle Hell. With each passing minute, Lara seems to become more and more ticklish, her laughter louder and louder. A sense of doom seems to come over Lara as she realized, with what few mental faculties she has left, that this is probably going to be the way she dies.
Lara's rescuer comes in the most unlikely of forms - a giant golden anteater. Draw by the sound, the anteater stumbles onto a meal of a lifetime, and it quickly goes to work. Unleashing a 3-foot long tongue capable of multiple licks per second, the anteater begins to devour the insects in the tree... as well as giving Lara the most intense tongue bath imaginable. For Lara, this new sensation is simply too much. If she could get anything out of her mouth other than helpless, hysterical laughter, Lara would be begging the Almighty to put her out of her misery. The anteater works Lara's feet masterfully, licking up and down, back and forth, and side to side across her soles in what seems to her to be one fluid motion. What in reality is hundreds and thousands of individual licks across her feet seems to Lara as if the anteater had a single massive tongue that never leaves her soles. Then this most perfect of tickle torture implements begins working Lara's toes. If Lara believes she is nearing her end, then she's shocked by the sudden burst of energy she exertes. Her laughter suddenly jumps an octave in pitch and several decibels in loudness as the anteater's tongue expertly finds its way around, underneath and between her ten wiggling toes. At times it seems as if the tongue is completely wrapped around several of her toes simultaneously, licking and tickling and teasing and tasting one of the single most sensitive areas on Lara's entire body. Just as it seems this new torture will never end, it stops. But before Lara can even begin to enjoy the respite, she feels that evil tongue licking in and out of her bellybutton. Having eaten the insects on Lara's feet, the anteater is now roaming up and down the outside of the tree, using it's tongue to slip in through tiny knotholes and crevices on the tree. The infernal lick tickling now continues, but Lara has no idea where it is going to come from or what part of her body is going to be tormented and teased. After a few more minutes of relentless tickling, the sensations are finally too much for Lara to bear and she mercifully slips into unconsciousness.
Lara awakes hours later as two pairs of hands take hold of her ankles and with one big pull, dislodged her from the fallen tree. Exhausted and just barely conscious, any hopes for an end to this nightmare are dashed when Lara realizes her rescuers are none other than the Kitchi-Koo tribesmen she was trying to escape from in the first place. As she is carried away, the last thing Lara hears before slipping back into unconsciousness chills her to her very soul. The head tribesman orders the others to bring the fallen tree... as it will be useful in Lara's upcoming punishment.
Hope you find an image idea in that to your liking...
