Lapis was fascinated by Silas' fluffy ears and tail, so Silas invited Lapis over to his house so they could hang out.
Silas allowed Lapis to play with his ears on one condition, Lapis had to play a little game with him after.
Lapis agreed to the game without a second thought.
Lapis had originally met Silas during her visit to Thema's mansion where Lapis appeared as a Guest on Thema's Stream. Silas had agreed to participate in the stream, which is why he was also present at the mansion when Lapis had arrived. Lapis was immediately captivated by this strange boy's ears and tail, and asked if she could be allowed to play with them. The two of them spent a few minutes playing together before Thema announced the start of her stream.
Playing with Silas' ears and tail was a lot of fun for Lapis, but she felt like she didn't quite get enough time to play with him as she'd like.
One day, Lapis received a message in her inbox from that cat-boy she'd met before! It was Silas requesting that the two of them meet at his house over the weekend so they could hang out again without any interruptions. Lapis happily agreed to the invitation and met Silas in the afternoon on a Friday. Silas welcomed Lapis to his home and the two of them broke into conversation like they'd been friends forever.
It didn't take Lapis long to ask if she could start playing with Silas' ears and tail again, and Silas agreed to the request just like before. However, this time, Silas had a condition Lapis had to agree to if he was going to let her rub his ears. Silas proposed a game that he would play with Lapis once she was finished playing, and Lapis immediately agreed to the condition before Silas could even explain what this game was. Silas smirked at this internet celebrity's eagerness, but went on to explain the game anyways.
"All you have to do is keep one foot still on this foot-rest here and you'll win the game." Silas said.
"That sounds easy! Deal!" Lapis exclaimed.
"But you have to do it while I'm tickling you." Silas continued, grinning.
"Deal!" Lapis shouted, "I use tickling all the time. I'm great at it!"
"Yes, you use tickling a lot in your streams," Silas said, "but being tickled is very different from being the tickler."
Lapis didn't really listen to Silas' explanation as she was too eager to start rubbing those weird ears of his. The two of them spent a good hour or so just sitting on Silas' couch while Lapis had her fun. Lapis got to enjoy the feeling of her fingers running along the cat-like fur on Silas' ears and tail, lightly pulling them and squeezing them between her fingers. If she tried this with a normal cat (and she has) she'd get scratched right away. For Silas, this was just a pleasant way to spend his afternoon.
When Lapis was finally satisfied, Silas asked is she was ready to play the game.
"Do you need me to explain the rules again?" Silas asked.
"Nope! I just have to keep my foot still and not move it. Easy!" Lapis replied, jumping back and landing in a chair Silas had put out for her.
Alright, if you're ready, we can begin." Silas said.
Lapis was already leaning back in the chair with both hands behind her head, relaxing as she placed both feet on top of the foot rest in front of her. Silas took a single claw and dragged it along Lapis' right sole from her heel to her toes. Immediately, Lapis responded with a sputtering cough as she pulled back both feet and recoiled from the unfamiliar sensations. Silas was shocked to see Lapis fail so quickly as she grasped the tickled foot with both hands and rubbed away the tingling sensations.
Lapis didn't even realize she'd lost until a few moments had passed, before turning to Silas with a dopey expression on her face.
"Heh, clearly you weren't ready. Shall we try again?" Silas said.
"Y-yeah! I wasn't focusing, so it didn't count." Lapis said, placing both feet on the foot rest in front of her again.
Once both feet were in place, Silas took his single, clawed finger and placed it in the center of Lapis' sole. Lapis' immediately reaction was to curl her toes as the claw poked her foot, once again causing her to fail.
"Ah ah! Remember, you can't move your foot at all. You only have to keep this one foot still, but you can't move it, wiggle it, or curl your toes while I'm tickling you, understand?" Silas said.
"Yeah, of course! I'm just warming up." Lapis lied.
Lapis once again repositioned herself, this time starring intently at her foot as Silas brought his clawed nail closer to her unprotected sole. Slowly, Silas touched his nail against Lapis' skin which caused her to audibly gasp at his touch. She managed to keep her foot still, so Silas didn't count that as a loss.
It had always been pretty clear to Silas that Lapis had never been tickled before. The way she talked about tickling, he could tell she barely understood what it was, let alone how it felt to be tickled. It was always Silas' goal when he sent Lapis that invite to teach Lapis about being tickled. He just never realized how ticklish she really was! Silas wanted to have as much fun with this as he could, which is why he's allowed so many do-overs.
Silas dragged his nail up Lapis' sole just as he had done before and watched to see how Lapis reacted. Surprisingly, Lapis managed to keep her foot totally still as Silas ran his nail along her sole. Lapis didn't curl her toes or pull her foot away, though it was pretty clear Lapis' entire body was trembling. Silas didn't count this as moving, so he just continued running his finger in and around the area of Lapis' tender sole.
Since there was no rule against it, Lapis' other foot began to spasm in an attempt to release some of the building stress coming from the tickles. Her left foot slammed into the side of the foot rest and her toes curled around the cushion, squeezing it with as much force as Lapis could muster. The girl's eyes were wide in panic, and her face warped into a wicked grin as she forced herself not to start laughing.
A few minutes into the game, Silas decided to start teasing Lapis about her situation, and how she should've considered how ticklish her feet were before agreeing to play. Lapis, being so focused on not moving an inch, could not manage a response and simply slammed her free foot into the side of Silas' head. Fortunately, Lapis' kicks are very weak so she wasn't able to do much but amuse her tormentor.
Even after half an hour, Lapis still didn't move. Silas was surprised Lapis had this much stamina in her, and he wondered how long he could keep this going.
Even after all this time, Lapis never realized Silas hadn't set a time-limit.
= = = = = = = = = = =
Lapis struggled as hard as she could in her bindings, but there was nothing she could do to escape Silas' punishment.
Silas knew he was being mean, but he intended to show Lapis what tickling really felt like.
It was her fault for agreeing to his game in the first place.
Lapis had endured Silas' teasing for far longer than he thought she would. Even though Silas was using a single finger to comb over the area of Lapis' sole, he could clearly see just how sensitive Lapis was to even the lightest touch. The girl's entire body trembled as she struggled against the urge to move her foot, so Silas had figured that Lapis' endurance would've failed by now after so much time had passed.
It seems that Lapis had far more stamina than Silas gave her credit for. He was having a blast just using a single finger to tickle her sole, listening to Lapis' weak whimpers and feeling the muscles in her foot tense beneath his finger, but he knew this had to end soon. Silas suddenly quickened the pace of his finger and this unexpected change in rhythm caused Lapis' toes to flinch in response.
Finally, Lapis had lost the game (again).
"*huff* aww... *huff* *huff* I... need... another do-over..." Lapis said, repositioning her foot so they could start the game again.
"Mmm, I'm afraid you've run out of do-overs." Silas explained, smirking.
"B-but, wait, no... I want to try again!" Lapis said.
Silas was already standing and started walking over to the bed on the other side of the room. Lapis jumped out of her chair and followed after him. When they both reached the bed, Silas started fiddling with some restraints that had been built into the furniture.
"Here, jump up on the bed." Silas said, patting the sheets.
"I want another do-over!" Lapis replied.
"We've been over this, you don't have any more do-overs, silly." Silas explained.
"Th-that last round didn't count! You must've cheated somehow!" Lapis shouted.
"And how could I have cheated?" Silas asked.
Lapis didn't have a response, though she certainly put a lot of effort into thinking of one. Just before she was about to say something, Silas knelt down and picked her up only to place her down on the bed he'd prepared for her. With Lapis lying on her belly, Silas took both her wrists and secured them in the cuffs attached to the bed. He then proceeded to place both her ankles in leather cuffs.
Lapis didn't resist during all this. She was mostly just curious to know what was going on.
"Is this another game we're playing?" Lapis asked.
"Oh, no, this is your punishment for losing the game." Silas replied.
"But I didn't- eugHH EGHHH!! MMUGHHH!!!"
Lapis was suddenly cut off by Silas placing a cleave gag into the girl's mouth.
"Part of your punishment is that you're not allowed to talk anymore." Silas explained, smugly.
Lapis watched as Silas set-up what appeared to be a tripod with a phone attached to it. After pressing a few buttons, Silas smiled at the phone screen and walked back over to Lapis.
"Mmesh Mahht?" Lapis asked.
"Oh, the phone? I decided that, since you're this big internet celebrity with a whole lot of fans, I would live stream your punishment for the whole world to enjoy!" Silas lied. He just wanted to record this for later.
Lapis didn't respond to this new information. She was a bit caught off-guard.
Suddenly, Lapis' vision went dark as she felt something soft being placed over her eyes. Lapis instinctively went to grab for whatever was obscuring her vision, but before she could get her hands on it she felt Silas' nails make contact with her feet. Before Lapis could realize what was going on, Silas dragged all of his nails across his captive's soles. Lapis immediately began squealing in laughter.
"MHAAWT!! MOUUGH!!!" Lapis cried.
"Ah, sorry, but I can't stop. This is your punishment, remember? You agreed to play the game, and if you lost then I could tickle you for as long as I want." Silas said.
Silas gripped both of Lapis' feet tightly in his hands, enjoying the feeling of how smooth and soft they were. Every time one of his fingers traced along the inside of her arch, Lapis' foot would twist and her toes would curl. Silas enjoyed the sensation of wrinkles forming across Lapis' otherwise very smooth soles.
The tickling wasn't very hard or fast, but Lapis still thrashed like crazy in her bindings. Her arms pulled against the leather cuffs that bound her to the bed, and her legs kicked and strained to escape Silas' clutches. Of course, Lapis isn't very well known for her strength, so it took little effort to keep her feet still.
Gradually, Silas started moving his fingers quicker and quicker, digging his sharp nails deeper and deeper into Lapis' plump feet. The girl's toes spread out and her feet started waving back and forth like they were trying to form a hand to slap away Silas' nails. Lapis' squeals turned into howling laughter, and any sense of her trying to form coherent words were lost to the giggling.
When Lapis' feet became too hyper, Silas tightened his grip and squeezed them both like they were stress balls. As the feet started to slow, Silas began rubbing and massaging her soles to further calm them down. Soon, Lapis was left gasping and her feet were both trembling, but at least she wasn't going wild anymore.
That's when Silas snuck his fingers under Lapis' toes and tickled her toe-stems with his nails. Lapis shrieked much louder than before and her whole body tensed up all at once. Silas thought it was cute.
Lapis had already endured over an hour of tickling, but seemed to still have energy.
Silas thought about giving her a break soon, but he was having so much fun that he figured he could go for another hour or two.
