Mercy is for the uncomfortable!
My tickling impulses contradict each other. If, for no other reason than I cannot possibly stand to tickle someone if they are in actual distress...same thing with sexual stuff, if someone's in pain, I can't get into it.
BUT...
I find that if YOU the LER are confident that no harm will come to the lee, then the license to be super-dastardly comes forward much more easily.
EX: If the lee is about to
- Fall off the bed
- Wrench a joint
- Choke on air
- Hit head on board
- Trip and fall
- Pull a muscle
- Thrashing WAY TOO HARD
-THEN I stop and try to get her re-positioned so that nothing bad or painful or injurious is going to happen. Of course, the status quo is to always check the breathing rate, but usually there will be little sound indicators before a breather is necessary: like a GULP, TOO-SHALLOW GASP, change in FACIAL EXPRESSION...since I imagine a lot of ler's like to watch the facial expressions of their work, it should be easy to catch a sign that something is wrong.
This is all to ensure that the lee is safe and comfy and therefore a good candidate for tickling.
After that, all bets are off. Having no legitimate reasons to hold back, I am the kind of guy that likes the lee
- Laughing silently/cackling deep and hard
- Eyes shut and watering
- Mouth open as widely as possible
- Vibrating from intensity
- Begging brokenly (e.g.: STA-HA-HA-HA-....HA-HA-HAAAPPP!)
- Laughing in breaths (e.g.: AH!...AH!...AH!...AH!)
For me, the goal is to make the lee endure the most intense and unbearable tickles for as long as possible without stopping, even if it means they go beet red and can't move because their muscles are exhausted.
And if the lee can go for five minutes without a breathing break (hey, they might be out there)...they'll go five minutes without one.
