I too have been a fan of this theme for as long as I can remember - and yet as popular as it seems to be, there has never seemed to be a proportionate amount of material out there which covers it.
I have a few classic stories in my mind, but they are all from so long ago that it might take me a while to re-call and post their titles … I will re-post as soon as I do.
I have one additional question to those interested in this thread - what about videos featuring the resistance/trying not to laugh theme??? Now they seem to be incredibly rare - especially done well.
Whoawh – that definitely encapsulates the essence for me as well; Tickled Pink was one of the first stories I'd enjoyed that much here in ages. (I also love Anger Management, recommended above.)
I think all my stories harness that element, though my first one thematizes it. ^ ^
I really enjoy this element in stories as well, it highlights the psychological side of tickling torture. This is one great example, like all the stories from dig dug dog: http://www.ticklingforum.com/showthread.php?5456-New-Anna-Kournikova-Story
