It was a warm afternoon, the kind that made the handsome pegasus knight, Shigure simply wanted to lay back and bask in the sunlight. However, he'd vowed to himself to spend today practicing his singing. He walked through the gardens of Castle Askr looking for a comfortable place to rest while he did his vocal warm-ups. He happened upon a small pond he didn't think he'd ever noticed on the castle grounds. There was a small fruit tree growing right on its bank that provided shade as he sat down and rested his back on its trunk.
He cleared his throat and began humming a few bars to get ready.
"Hmmm you arrre the oceean's graaaay waaaaves" he warbled to an unseen audience.
His golden eyes chanced upon the water and he noticed a small school of odd-looking fish watching him intently. Why they almost seemed to be listening to him. He smiled and went on singing the song his mother had taught him as more of them began swimming up. He noticed his audience swelling and had to admit it was nice to have an audience. They were really strange-looking fish though. A tingling began in the back of his mind and suddenly Shigure's socks felt as if they were the most stifling thing on earth.
---
Without much though he began undoing his boots and cast them aside. His feet still felt as if they were roasting so he quickly peeled off his tabi and tossed them as well.
"Well, well, well the piggies are out to suuuun!"
He giggled to himself as he held his naked foot up to the sun. He wiggled the toes and was blissfully unaware as yet more of the strange fish swam up to watch the young man. He wanted to simply practice his vocal warm-ups but suddenly the feeling of the sun on his feet was heavenly. He placed his bare feet upon a small lump of grass by the water and realized he was apparently quite sleepy. His eyes were heavy and as he tried to fight off sleep, he lost and was off to dreamland.
---
Shigure even snored melodiously and as he breathed in the air his toes flexed unconsciously in his sleep. His mother had always disapproved of them for reasons. She'd claimed it was the custom in her homeland for all to walk about naked footed but when Shigure had asked her where that was she'd grow vague. When she would visit him in the deep realms she would always tease the young bluenette about wearing shoes but simply put Shigure preferred them. He'd tried a few times to walk about without them like mother did or Uncle and Aunt Corrin (That had taken a bit getting used to) but he simply preferred shoes. As a male, his feet were significantly larger than his mothers but whenever she praised them he felt that he was being teased.
This had evolved into a complex where he'd hidden them from others at every opportunity. The only times the very pretty 12's came out was when he was completely alone or when his mother had believed her baby needed to smile. Whenever he'd been too bad or good for that matter his poor little feetsies would end up in the crook of his mother's arm for her measure every inch of Shigure's growth. He'd always been vocal about hating it but as he'd grown he had to admit the smile would stay for a while.
---
Shigure dreamed of these moments and was totally unaware that as he did so, yet more things in the pond were stirring to take in the sight of his big beautiful feet on display. The fish stayed hypnotized as a few more slimy creatures began swimming up from the bottom of this pond that had not been here yesterday. One of the little swimmers was seized with an idea. It swam back and forth to gather momentum which was easy for something smaller than a finger. Finally, it arced up and breached out of the water! It sailed through the air aiming right for the great wall of pale flesh that had been teasing it and it's kind. Right before it splatted into it, the little fishy daredevil puckered up. It planted a highspeed kiss right beneath the toe pad of Shigure's biggest digit and jolted the sleeping pegasus knight in his dreams and caused him to mumble.
"Nooo, mommy don't do that! Those are dirty and you shouldn't touch ugly things like that..."
Shigure crossed his legs in his sleep and after a bit of effort that was quite impressive in somebody unconscious, positioned his right foot's heel right in the crook of the big and index toe on the left. His pretty feet were stacked up now and the fish were going wild. After the success of the scaly little trailblazer, they'd become emboldened. All the teeny little fish were jumping from the water to deluge Shigure's sleepy feet with kisses before they flopped back to watery safety.
---
In his dreams, Shigure struggled with Nohrian bandits who'd torn his boots off and now barraged them with slimy kisses as they told him how anyone with feet this ugly should pick up an ax and join them. In the waking world though perhaps more unbelievably an almost steady arc of fish was bursting from the water to deluge the bluenette's sleepy feet with big old fish lipped kissies. He waved a hand in his dream to try and fight off the bandits but one enterprising little tadpole just sailed over and gave that a smooch.
His sleepy smile, his flushed cheeks, and now thoroughly slimed feet attracted something that wasn't a fish now. It saw a star power in Shigure that couldn't be denied. The reptilian creature swam up towards that window into Askr that the pond created and prepared to fish. Shigure had gotten to the part of the dream where he was kicking his way free of the bandits when he started to stir. His pretty golden eyes opened just in time to see a pair of clammy green hands poke from the water and clamp around one of his ankles.
---
Shigure flew into a panic as they began trying to pull him into the water by his leg. He dug his hands into the dirt to try and hang on but a cold claw began tracing down the sole of his captive foot and making him giggle. It began plucking each of his clenched toes and wiggling them back and forth as his grip on both the ground and the smile he was trying to hold back both loosened.
Finally, a sharp beak poked his plush heel and Shigure lost it. He curled into a ball defensively and lost his grip. Shigure yelled for help and saw a few of his fellow Heroes from the Order running towards him in the distance but in seconds his head slipped beneath the water and everything went dark as the fish cocooned him in nibbles and kisses till he passed out.
---
Shigure awoke to a new place and a variety of new sensations. He was no longer under a warm sun in Askr for starters. He was somewhere new that positively buzzed with energy. Women flitted about and tended to strange jars but his eyes were glued on the great red curtain that seemed to divide the room. Behind it, Shigure could hear so many voices speaking at once that he couldn't figure out what any one of them was saying if he tried.
He swallowed hard in fear at the idea of what was on the other side and made a faint noise that one of his tenders picked up on. She signaled to the others of his now being conscious and they turned as one.
"Oooooh, sleeping beauty finally awakes? Why it's about time! The curtain is any second now!"
"Sleeping beauty? No that's the third act. First is "Small Fish Girl" then I forget the second."
"Oh shut up! We're about to start the show and we've still yet to finish our leading man's make-up! C'mon he needs more blush!"
---
To Shigure's horror, one of them knelt down and took him by the ankle so that they could float an oversized make-up brush along his ugly (to him) foot. They poofed it up nicely until his sole was alabaster white with a peeking bit of pink below the surface begging to be teased out. They did the same to his other tootsie while the other girls teased his eyelashes out and blushed up his cheeks as well.
Shigure's armor was gone and now he sat here tied to this director's chair in the old festival outfit his mother had gotten him. It matched hers quite well but he'd never been a fan of it due to the way it put his toes on display for all to see. That didn't matter here of course because he was barefoot for these monsters.
He saw them dragging forward some kind of strange costume and could only howl as the women teased his pits to keep him pliable through his costume change. He was such a giggly puddle as they stripped away his trousers that he couldn't even muster up a word about what was obviously another person sharing this costume with him. The blonde was gracious and helped pull the outfit up over Shigure's gracious hips.
---
The next thing Shigure knew they'd hauled him from the chair and tossed the boy onto a paper mache rock. He turned back just in time to get a face full of cold water as the curtain opened. The blue-haired songbird wiped the water from his eyes and looked out over a crowd of unfortunates. Sitting in the audience before him were all the Heroes that had been abducted from the Order of Heroes. Mixed into the crowd and running claws, tentacles, and hands all along every inch of the poor souls were various kinds of monsters of all shapes and sizes.
Shigure went pale as the mass of people and beasts all turned as one to look at him up on a stage before them. He swallowed hard but looked to see a placard with lines written upon it. He got a strong feeling that he should read them to keep himself from getting pulled into that giggly mosh pit and so he did.
---
"Oh what a world it must be on land. Would that I could walk among the land dwellers and see what they see. If only I had but feeheeheet instead of theeheese fihiins! GauHAHOHO UHUHEEHAHA *hnnrk* BAHAHA!"
Shigure's less then enthusiastic reading had inspired Forrest, hiding inside his fish suit to help him dial it up a notch. Forrest had decided those dials were on Shigure's hips and he dug his nails in to pump up the performance his bluenette co-star gave. That was the reason Shigure had dissolved into giggles during his line reading. However, that was the only part the audience had paid attention to. For Shigure's less than stellar reading they'd all continued to tickle each other and play with their favorite toys. However when Shigure had broken down into belly laughter and cute little piggy snorts that had been the part they'd all quieted down for.
---
"Oh what I'd gihihive, QUIT IT! Oh, what I'd give to walk upohon the beach-EHEEHEE! To feel the saahahand *hnnrk* between my TOHOHOES! To lay upon a towel and feel the fahahbric upon my HIHIPS!-STAHAHAP! To wear *hnnnrk* a swihih-buhuHAHA! To wear a swimsuit BETWEEHHEN MY THIHIGHS GAAHAHHWD! GEHEHT OUHT OF THEHERE! AHAHAGA *hnnrk* NOHHOOO!"
The crowd was rapt, not for Shigure's acting. But for the performance he gave so convincingly as a fish flopping about gasping for air. His "handler" Forrest had played with each part just as Shigure had called them. Stroking his feetsies, twiddling his piggies, scratching at his hippies, and nibbling on his sweaty thighsies. Shigure's arms had given out and he'd been collapsed down onto the fake rock. He'd been forced to crane his sweaty face up at his cue cards and read them through teary eyes.
---
Forrest pouted about how soon this scene would end and he'd be forced to give the pretty drumsticks of this songbird back. He wondered that if he pleaded with Mama Hel enough he could make this a regular role for himself? Although he supposed once Shigure was settled into his new life here he could just keep this fish suit and the two of them could do this regularly. He could just tickle the backs of the Pegasus Knights knees and nibble their caps when they jumped too much just like he was doing now.
Forrest ran his button nose along the length of meat that he shared this gaudily made prison with. He'd decided but a few seconds into the scene that Shigure had no need of these dancer's trousers and pulled them down around the singer's ankles. Now he smiled as the cock he was pioneering the "nose job" on twitched and jumped at his actions. If he remembered this play right then Shigure should be right in the middle of the scene where the old sea witch was making him the offer for his legs.
---
Forrest had motivated Shigure a bit too much and his fellow tickle slut Ursula was getting annoyed at how his lines weren't forthcoming. She doubted these throaty gasps would do as acting to her Hubie and she'd damned if she'd be the one getting her nipples tickled pink for this.
She reached down and took the little merboy by the wrists. Laying him across her lap, she began swirling a finger in one of his ears and just simply reading her lines as if his were going smoothly. She got to the part she had been so looking forward to and didn't even try to hide the glee in her voice.
"So what would you trade, my pretty little sea-girl for a pair of those feet you so wanted?"
Shigure went rigid in her arms at the mention of that and began shaking his head frantically while pleading for mercy. In payment Forrest trailer his nails along Shigure's tight ass cheeks to make him titter even more. Speaking of, Ursula trailed her nails up to begin trailing nails around Shigure's pink nipples while they went through a scene change.
---
A pair of stagehands ran out to take Shigure by his "fins" and pull him out of his costume. The crowd of mad perverts cheered at the sight of the young man's pale 12's and began chanting in a mad frenzy for their destruction. Shigure tried to scramble away but was weak from lack of air. Ursula was able to take him by the ankle and keep him still. However, she was a cruel woman. Instead, she let Shigure tumble off the rock. He collapsed face-first into a heap at the foot of it due to her keeping one of his poor pies in a headlock.
She displayed it to the crowd whooped and cheered, well except for the ones in the front who's mad hands and claws scrabbled on the stage floor to try and reach Shigure and drag him into their hysterical orgy. Ursula stroked her knuckles down the lads sole at the twitching little fish she had in her arms and the blue fuzzed minnow she saw fit to burst down there. She slipped a leg free of her rather frumpy Octo-witch costume and trailed a toe down Shigure's thigh until he got the hint and rolled over onto his back to show the crowd his swollen member to thunderous applause.
---
She blew a stream of hot air on the toes and smiled as they clenched in fear. She stuck out her tongue and coiled it around the big one to give it a rough suckling as Shigure went nuts with the wriggling down on the stage. Despite himself though his hands never once went to stop Ursula. Instead one clapped around his member and he had to use the other to try and restrain it.
"Now what new sensations would you want to feel on these I wonder? Why does this first little guppy want to be sucked like the cute little candy it is?"
The crowd went silent as they stared at Shigure. He shook his head to massive boos and a tongue cluck from Ursula that made him squeal due to what else was in her mouth. She popped his big toe out with a wet squeak and went on with the act. She leaned in close to just graze the pad of his index toe with her teeth and feel him tremble from the electric sensation. He pumped his cock unconsciously and gave the crowd quite the expression as the monsters howled and their victims laughed.
---
"Does this little guppy knows what happens on land? Why it's a *groan* fish eat fish world. The smart ones know you have to eat them before they eat you. The winner is the last one on their own two FEET!"
She punctuated that one with a sharp clack of her teeth that made Shigure pump himself again.
"Does the sheltered little princess think she's ready for that world?"
Again a hushed silence. Shigure looked at the starved looking crowd and again shook his head to boos.
Ursula shook her head and moved on to the next one. This time she took a loooong and loving lick of the middle toe. Then she did it again. Then once more. Then for variety, the same exact thing for a fourth time. When she came up for air the lad was seeing stars and had pumped his aching cock three or four times.
"Such a sweet face. Does this little guppy know what happens to sweet things on land? They get sampled until there's nothing left. Is that what this sweetiefooted little princess wants?"
---
Again a shake of the head this time greeted with crumpled up playbills thrown as projectiles from an incensed crowd. Shigure's eyes were open but all he was seeing were stars. To the point where Ursula moving on caught him entirely by surprise. His second to the last toesie was pushed back by a strong thumb letting it's poor sensitive stem be all scratched up.
Shigure didn't even have the breath to laugh at this point. His knuckles were white as he held back his to flood ready to burst out of his cock. He could barely shake his head but he knew what was coming. He wouldn't be able to take the next one. Ursula knew it too and that's why she savored her last little guppy.
---
She leaned in and planted a gentle kiss on that babiest of toes. Shigure came explosively to the point where his chest almost looked as if it had been painted. The crowd stomped their feet and the cheers were almost loud enough to prevent Shigure from drifting off to sleep as he nodded at Ursula asking him if he thought he was ready for the dangers of the land.
She said something about fantastical tales and all that but he couldn't hear a word of it over the crowd or the director's praise for his new leading man. His eyes closed to the curtain drawing and the rushing of stagehands towards him as he lost consciousness in a puddle of his own fluids.
---
He woke to the brushes applying make-up to his cheeks again. The women flitted about and made sure that the stockings he'd been attired in were without runs, the tuxedo he wore was without wrinkles and that the twenty pairs of socks he wore were sufficiently floofy. This last detail caused a raised blue eyebrow. While there was no possible way he wouldn't feel something from all that cloth cocooning his slender feet, what it was wasn't UNcomfortable. They felt warm and strangely safe as if they were in the embrace of a clothen protector.
He experimented with flexing his toes inside all of that and found that while he could move his piggies it wasn't much. A giggle escaped his lips as something inside all that cloth moved with his flexing. He didn't feel it on his immediate skin but he was now acutely aware of something buried in all those different socks somewhere. He tried to position it by flexing his feet but found there was another somewhere else in the other set of socks as well. The stagehands seized him by the arms and carried him forwards to a great throne before the curtain.
---
He was plopped into it just as the curtain began to draw and a new "actor" strode forward. Nina licked her lips at the sight of the blushing young princeling before her but turned to the audience to deliver her lines with gusto befitting the suave suit the silver-haired woman wore.
"Oh, woe betide our kingdom! Our crown prince is struck with an ailment that prevents him from walking! His royal sensitivities are his undoing! Why somewhere in the many pairs of woolen socks that the dashing young man wears to hide his royal peds are not one but TWO dastardly peas! One for each wiggly royal pie you see! Just see what happens when the dashing prince tries to stand!"
Shigure was seized by the arms and pulled up onto his feet which made him immediately bubble up into musical giggles. He danced from foot to foot trying to get those damn peas into a position that would allow him to stand. Whenever he tried to sit back into his "throne" Nina would be there to dance quick fingers along the small of his back and force him back onto his feet. He danced quite sillily to the hoots of the crowd while Nina delivered a performance so hammy that he wanted to laugh through his tickles.
---
"Why whoever could be brave yet clever enough to save our hapless prince from a life of soft-footed giggles? Won't anyone step forward and save his sole?"
"I WILL!"
The reactions on Nina and Shigure's faces were almost comical to watch change as the next actor strode onto the stage. His silver hair matching Nina's own made her shiver in disgust and the way he absentmindedly adjusted his eyepatch made Shigure shiver.
"Do not worry! I have a plan to save the handsome prince's delicate sole!"
Niles shouted the line with a more than appropriate amount of ham. Nonetheless, the crowd howled in gratitude and cheered for the sniper to help the poor ticklish boy. Shigure looked about for somewhere to go but knew that standing would just bring him more tickles. He struggled to decide between letting Niles play his games or making a tickly flight for freedom. Niles made the decision for him by side-stepping to block him from the backstage.
---
Niles took the flier's ankle in his hand and further played to the crowd before finally driving one finger into the young man's heel to make him jump in his chair.
The crowd roared with glee at Shigure's unmanly yelp and the blush that overtook his cheeks when he looked down at Niles hungry grin.
"Now first we must find the offending little veggie that so torments our fair prince! We'll have to look everywhere! From the highest peaks-"
Niles's expedition started by heading up into Shigure's arch making the pegasus knight tremble as he bit his knuckle to maintain composure.
"-down to the lowest lows where the fiendish little bean may hide!"
Niles's finger began making circles along Shigure's heel, expanding with each rotation to cover more ground. Shigure's eyes were so tightly closed that tears were leaking from their corners as the show continued.
"No matter how long it takes we'll sift through every inch of this poor foot AND FIND-oh poo there it is."
Shigure's eyes flew open as Niles circled his finger around where he'd found the pea. He began scritching ever so gently at one side of it to begin gently guiding it along Shigure's sole and up towards his ankle.
---
"It's only due to the sensitivity of royal blood that our handsome prince can even feel such a small thing through all these lovely pairs of wooly socks. To commoners like me or my lovely blushing daughter here, this would all just be a silly game but to someone of such fine breeding here as our ocean-haired princeling, this is unbearably ticklish."
Shigure was laughing his head off to prove Niles claims but there was somebody on stage who also had a reaction to what was said. Nina swallowed and looked into the crowd until she locked eyes with a certain pink-haired young lady. Soleil blew her a kiss without breaking stride on the rib-tickling she was giving the blonde pair she had in her lap. She gave Nina a wink as if to say that she would be testing that later before returning her full attention to making sure Ophelia and Forrest enjoyed the show.
Nina swallowed and decided she'd occupy her mind by showing up her no-good louse of a father. She took Shigure's other foot under her arm and proceeded to try and mimic Niles's movements to get the other pea up and out of Shigure's many sockies. She wasn't quite as skilled a lockpicker however so all she was really doing was giving Shigure a hell of a tickling which caused him to kick his legs and slow Niles down.
---
Eventually, though Niles popped the dastardly little pod fruit out the top of Shigure's sockies. He shooed Nina away and began on the other wiggling tootsie as she made a show of stumbling and almost falling into the audience where a drooling Soleil awaited her favorite suited siren and her pale size 8's. Nina corrected herself though and just barely dodged being dragged off stage by the ravenous pinkette. Niles popped the other pea out of Shigure's socks to thunderous applause. He displayed it between his thumb and forefinger and with a flourish turned to the bluenette on the throne.
"As the savior of the handsome prince, I suppose I'm obligated to a reward! So I'm going to challenge him to a game! If the handsome young royal takes his hands down from above his head he's going to lose those troublesome socks."
He pressed the green little tuber beneath Shigure's right nipple and moved it back and forth while using his free hands to guide the giggly boy's hands up into his preferred position. He folded them behind Shigure's head and signaled that the game could begin. Shigure looked in horror as Niles proceeded to pull open the loose material of his dancer's trouser and drop that evil little pea right down his underwear. For some reason, he was true to the fairy tale and the feeling of it settling beneath his balls was too much.
---
He took his hands down and proceeded to slap at his own kicking legs until he felt the horrid little thing dislodge. It shot out of his pant leg and right back into Niles's hand.
"Wow, that was sure quick wasn't it? I do believe that's a point for me. So those socks? Daughter? I'm sorry. Court assistant?"
Taking a bow the archer girl obliged. She knelt down before the throne and after sneaking a few tickles to Shigure's calves peeled off the ugly black woolen socks atop the pile that hid his pretty feet.
With a twirl, she tossed them into the audience for the crowd to fight over. They were both magically caught by a magician. He tucked both into the box he kept in his lap. Had anyone in the crowd looked inside it they would have found two pairs of disembodied feet that were locked in loving footsies now using the ugly socks as tools to scrub each other. His assistants, Marth and Merric had been naughty so the great magician had made them sit out this show. Still, he'd wanted some entertainment himself so after locking his boys in the boxes to take them apart he'd decided to take their handsome feet to the show anyway.
---
A certain someone in the audience had had enough though. As the whole show that tricky and teasy Nina had been taunting her. Whether it was wiggling her bubbly toes at her or stretching in a way that showed off just the smallest bit of her ticklish belly that belonged to Soleil and Soleil only! She was going to pay!
Soleil climbed onto the stage as Nina watched in horror. Various other tickle monsters and slaves were emboldened as well and followed her up. Soon the pinkette was standing in front of a not angry but thirsty mob! Nina tried to reason with Soleil so as to save the show but her father had other ideas. He stepped forward and seized his daughter's jacket to drop that evil little pea down it before shoving her right into the arms of Soleil.
Nina thrashed and twisted trying to dislodge the horrid little thing that was tickling all along her back. By which we of course mean Soleil who was taking great joy in tickling the archer's spine through her clothes. However, it wasn't enough! She wanted more!
With a roar, she charged forward with her Nina and the crowd followed her with Surtr sweeping up Niles as well. They deposited both actors right into Shigure's lap with enough force that his throne splintered beneath him. Soon all three of them were on their backs with their legs in the air as a crowd of tickle mad sluts and creatures ravished them. The three different pairs of feet stayed straight up in the air so theatrically that you'd be hard-pressed to believe it wasn't part of the show!
---
Niles had his shirt torn open and howled as his pink nipples and pecs were attacked from all sides by lips, finger tentacles, and even one beak! His sides were staked out by a pack of small gremlins who ran brushes in between the muscles there and did their best to avoid getting squashed. Surtr himself claimed the deviant's hips and kneaded them with massive fingers that made his favorite victim interrupt his own throaty laughter with moans of pleasure. His poor one-eyed weasel was drowned in oily raven feathers until it spurted in milk.
Nina had her nice suit torn open just like her papa and squealed like a piggy when a pair of lips began buzzing her breasts with kind raspberries. Her ribs were given cruel tweaks and poke however to contrast and through her foggy tickle haze, she wondered whatever in the hell was currently in her poor perky navel. It vibrated like it was alive and seemed to be trying to curl up in there. It almost felt like a fuzzy caterpillar was trying to hide in her navel from the fingers trying to pull it out by pinching her belly until it popped out.
Shigure himself though of course got it the roughest. As the star of the show, he was already a sweaty mess but now he felt the full brunt of his adoring public. His face was smooched, pecked, and kissed from all sides by beasts, men, and women alike. It felt like somebody had started a race in his armpits and dozens of pairs of fingers were neck in neck to see who could do the most laps in that blue-furred track. His pecs were attacked and rubbed as if a genie would come out eventually. His cock was pulled and squeezed while somebody had even snuck around to stroke a feather around the opening to his "Cave of Wonders" while he gasped and shook. Hel herself had snuggled into the pegasus knight's stomach and was deeply and passionately frenching his navel while he collapsed into airless wheezing.
Through it all, though the three pairs of feet stood straight in the air where they had been given special attention with a marker by an unknown party. They read "That's all folks!" as the curtain closed on the scene and the three came in perfect synchronicity while stagehands began to try to fight the crowd back.
---
With a start, Shigure woke and tried to fight off his attackers. The stagehands tending him let him flail weakly at that which had happened last show. It was routine at this point. They'd been in theater for a long time and had seen every kind of eccentricity from "stars" even ones of what was just essentially a fluffy striptease like this. Every show Shigure worked himself to the limit and his crowd to the limit until they charged the stage for him. He'd roar in ticklish agony for more and more and for it all to never end before he would faint with a great forced smile on his lips.
He'd wake up for the next show and insist he didn't want to perform but then a few lines in it was like he'd be a different person. Tonight they tossed him out on the stage with Xander and Leo performing for their ladies in the audience. The enchanted frogs hopped about the stage but stopped the second the star was in the spotlight. They were all the various tickle sluts of the castle looking for a big kiss from the debutante so they could be turned back and win their ticklish prize of first dibs on his backstage.
---
Shigure delivered his first few lines hesitantly to his "wicked step-sisters" who were circling him and slowly backing him towards a wall. He wasn't watching where he was going and let one froggy slip too close. It hopped atop one of his feet to give him a big kiss on the ankle and smoke filled the stage. When Shigure looked down, Prince Corrin had him by the leg and was already skittering fingers up his thigh. He tumbled backward as the other two brothers joined in and began the section that was just laughter.
However, as the frogs all started coming closer to his big defenseless feet his voice changed and the best part started as he delivered his lines through wheezing belly laughter just the way the crowd liked. After all, there was a reason this show sold out every night!
He cleared his throat and began humming a few bars to get ready.
"Hmmm you arrre the oceean's graaaay waaaaves" he warbled to an unseen audience.
His golden eyes chanced upon the water and he noticed a small school of odd-looking fish watching him intently. Why they almost seemed to be listening to him. He smiled and went on singing the song his mother had taught him as more of them began swimming up. He noticed his audience swelling and had to admit it was nice to have an audience. They were really strange-looking fish though. A tingling began in the back of his mind and suddenly Shigure's socks felt as if they were the most stifling thing on earth.
---
Without much though he began undoing his boots and cast them aside. His feet still felt as if they were roasting so he quickly peeled off his tabi and tossed them as well.
"Well, well, well the piggies are out to suuuun!"
He giggled to himself as he held his naked foot up to the sun. He wiggled the toes and was blissfully unaware as yet more of the strange fish swam up to watch the young man. He wanted to simply practice his vocal warm-ups but suddenly the feeling of the sun on his feet was heavenly. He placed his bare feet upon a small lump of grass by the water and realized he was apparently quite sleepy. His eyes were heavy and as he tried to fight off sleep, he lost and was off to dreamland.
---
Shigure even snored melodiously and as he breathed in the air his toes flexed unconsciously in his sleep. His mother had always disapproved of them for reasons. She'd claimed it was the custom in her homeland for all to walk about naked footed but when Shigure had asked her where that was she'd grow vague. When she would visit him in the deep realms she would always tease the young bluenette about wearing shoes but simply put Shigure preferred them. He'd tried a few times to walk about without them like mother did or Uncle and Aunt Corrin (That had taken a bit getting used to) but he simply preferred shoes. As a male, his feet were significantly larger than his mothers but whenever she praised them he felt that he was being teased.
This had evolved into a complex where he'd hidden them from others at every opportunity. The only times the very pretty 12's came out was when he was completely alone or when his mother had believed her baby needed to smile. Whenever he'd been too bad or good for that matter his poor little feetsies would end up in the crook of his mother's arm for her measure every inch of Shigure's growth. He'd always been vocal about hating it but as he'd grown he had to admit the smile would stay for a while.

Shigure dreamed of these moments and was totally unaware that as he did so, yet more things in the pond were stirring to take in the sight of his big beautiful feet on display. The fish stayed hypnotized as a few more slimy creatures began swimming up from the bottom of this pond that had not been here yesterday. One of the little swimmers was seized with an idea. It swam back and forth to gather momentum which was easy for something smaller than a finger. Finally, it arced up and breached out of the water! It sailed through the air aiming right for the great wall of pale flesh that had been teasing it and it's kind. Right before it splatted into it, the little fishy daredevil puckered up. It planted a highspeed kiss right beneath the toe pad of Shigure's biggest digit and jolted the sleeping pegasus knight in his dreams and caused him to mumble.
"Nooo, mommy don't do that! Those are dirty and you shouldn't touch ugly things like that..."
Shigure crossed his legs in his sleep and after a bit of effort that was quite impressive in somebody unconscious, positioned his right foot's heel right in the crook of the big and index toe on the left. His pretty feet were stacked up now and the fish were going wild. After the success of the scaly little trailblazer, they'd become emboldened. All the teeny little fish were jumping from the water to deluge Shigure's sleepy feet with kisses before they flopped back to watery safety.
---
In his dreams, Shigure struggled with Nohrian bandits who'd torn his boots off and now barraged them with slimy kisses as they told him how anyone with feet this ugly should pick up an ax and join them. In the waking world though perhaps more unbelievably an almost steady arc of fish was bursting from the water to deluge the bluenette's sleepy feet with big old fish lipped kissies. He waved a hand in his dream to try and fight off the bandits but one enterprising little tadpole just sailed over and gave that a smooch.
His sleepy smile, his flushed cheeks, and now thoroughly slimed feet attracted something that wasn't a fish now. It saw a star power in Shigure that couldn't be denied. The reptilian creature swam up towards that window into Askr that the pond created and prepared to fish. Shigure had gotten to the part of the dream where he was kicking his way free of the bandits when he started to stir. His pretty golden eyes opened just in time to see a pair of clammy green hands poke from the water and clamp around one of his ankles.
---
Shigure flew into a panic as they began trying to pull him into the water by his leg. He dug his hands into the dirt to try and hang on but a cold claw began tracing down the sole of his captive foot and making him giggle. It began plucking each of his clenched toes and wiggling them back and forth as his grip on both the ground and the smile he was trying to hold back both loosened.
Finally, a sharp beak poked his plush heel and Shigure lost it. He curled into a ball defensively and lost his grip. Shigure yelled for help and saw a few of his fellow Heroes from the Order running towards him in the distance but in seconds his head slipped beneath the water and everything went dark as the fish cocooned him in nibbles and kisses till he passed out.
---
Shigure awoke to a new place and a variety of new sensations. He was no longer under a warm sun in Askr for starters. He was somewhere new that positively buzzed with energy. Women flitted about and tended to strange jars but his eyes were glued on the great red curtain that seemed to divide the room. Behind it, Shigure could hear so many voices speaking at once that he couldn't figure out what any one of them was saying if he tried.
He swallowed hard in fear at the idea of what was on the other side and made a faint noise that one of his tenders picked up on. She signaled to the others of his now being conscious and they turned as one.
"Oooooh, sleeping beauty finally awakes? Why it's about time! The curtain is any second now!"
"Sleeping beauty? No that's the third act. First is "Small Fish Girl" then I forget the second."
"Oh shut up! We're about to start the show and we've still yet to finish our leading man's make-up! C'mon he needs more blush!"
---
To Shigure's horror, one of them knelt down and took him by the ankle so that they could float an oversized make-up brush along his ugly (to him) foot. They poofed it up nicely until his sole was alabaster white with a peeking bit of pink below the surface begging to be teased out. They did the same to his other tootsie while the other girls teased his eyelashes out and blushed up his cheeks as well.
Shigure's armor was gone and now he sat here tied to this director's chair in the old festival outfit his mother had gotten him. It matched hers quite well but he'd never been a fan of it due to the way it put his toes on display for all to see. That didn't matter here of course because he was barefoot for these monsters.
He saw them dragging forward some kind of strange costume and could only howl as the women teased his pits to keep him pliable through his costume change. He was such a giggly puddle as they stripped away his trousers that he couldn't even muster up a word about what was obviously another person sharing this costume with him. The blonde was gracious and helped pull the outfit up over Shigure's gracious hips.
---
The next thing Shigure knew they'd hauled him from the chair and tossed the boy onto a paper mache rock. He turned back just in time to get a face full of cold water as the curtain opened. The blue-haired songbird wiped the water from his eyes and looked out over a crowd of unfortunates. Sitting in the audience before him were all the Heroes that had been abducted from the Order of Heroes. Mixed into the crowd and running claws, tentacles, and hands all along every inch of the poor souls were various kinds of monsters of all shapes and sizes.
Shigure went pale as the mass of people and beasts all turned as one to look at him up on a stage before them. He swallowed hard but looked to see a placard with lines written upon it. He got a strong feeling that he should read them to keep himself from getting pulled into that giggly mosh pit and so he did.
---
"Oh what a world it must be on land. Would that I could walk among the land dwellers and see what they see. If only I had but feeheeheet instead of theeheese fihiins! GauHAHOHO UHUHEEHAHA *hnnrk* BAHAHA!"
Shigure's less then enthusiastic reading had inspired Forrest, hiding inside his fish suit to help him dial it up a notch. Forrest had decided those dials were on Shigure's hips and he dug his nails in to pump up the performance his bluenette co-star gave. That was the reason Shigure had dissolved into giggles during his line reading. However, that was the only part the audience had paid attention to. For Shigure's less than stellar reading they'd all continued to tickle each other and play with their favorite toys. However when Shigure had broken down into belly laughter and cute little piggy snorts that had been the part they'd all quieted down for.
---
"Oh what I'd gihihive, QUIT IT! Oh, what I'd give to walk upohon the beach-EHEEHEE! To feel the saahahand *hnnrk* between my TOHOHOES! To lay upon a towel and feel the fahahbric upon my HIHIPS!-STAHAHAP! To wear *hnnnrk* a swihih-buhuHAHA! To wear a swimsuit BETWEEHHEN MY THIHIGHS GAAHAHHWD! GEHEHT OUHT OF THEHERE! AHAHAGA *hnnrk* NOHHOOO!"
The crowd was rapt, not for Shigure's acting. But for the performance he gave so convincingly as a fish flopping about gasping for air. His "handler" Forrest had played with each part just as Shigure had called them. Stroking his feetsies, twiddling his piggies, scratching at his hippies, and nibbling on his sweaty thighsies. Shigure's arms had given out and he'd been collapsed down onto the fake rock. He'd been forced to crane his sweaty face up at his cue cards and read them through teary eyes.
---
Forrest pouted about how soon this scene would end and he'd be forced to give the pretty drumsticks of this songbird back. He wondered that if he pleaded with Mama Hel enough he could make this a regular role for himself? Although he supposed once Shigure was settled into his new life here he could just keep this fish suit and the two of them could do this regularly. He could just tickle the backs of the Pegasus Knights knees and nibble their caps when they jumped too much just like he was doing now.
Forrest ran his button nose along the length of meat that he shared this gaudily made prison with. He'd decided but a few seconds into the scene that Shigure had no need of these dancer's trousers and pulled them down around the singer's ankles. Now he smiled as the cock he was pioneering the "nose job" on twitched and jumped at his actions. If he remembered this play right then Shigure should be right in the middle of the scene where the old sea witch was making him the offer for his legs.
---
Forrest had motivated Shigure a bit too much and his fellow tickle slut Ursula was getting annoyed at how his lines weren't forthcoming. She doubted these throaty gasps would do as acting to her Hubie and she'd damned if she'd be the one getting her nipples tickled pink for this.
She reached down and took the little merboy by the wrists. Laying him across her lap, she began swirling a finger in one of his ears and just simply reading her lines as if his were going smoothly. She got to the part she had been so looking forward to and didn't even try to hide the glee in her voice.
"So what would you trade, my pretty little sea-girl for a pair of those feet you so wanted?"
Shigure went rigid in her arms at the mention of that and began shaking his head frantically while pleading for mercy. In payment Forrest trailer his nails along Shigure's tight ass cheeks to make him titter even more. Speaking of, Ursula trailed her nails up to begin trailing nails around Shigure's pink nipples while they went through a scene change.
---
A pair of stagehands ran out to take Shigure by his "fins" and pull him out of his costume. The crowd of mad perverts cheered at the sight of the young man's pale 12's and began chanting in a mad frenzy for their destruction. Shigure tried to scramble away but was weak from lack of air. Ursula was able to take him by the ankle and keep him still. However, she was a cruel woman. Instead, she let Shigure tumble off the rock. He collapsed face-first into a heap at the foot of it due to her keeping one of his poor pies in a headlock.
She displayed it to the crowd whooped and cheered, well except for the ones in the front who's mad hands and claws scrabbled on the stage floor to try and reach Shigure and drag him into their hysterical orgy. Ursula stroked her knuckles down the lads sole at the twitching little fish she had in her arms and the blue fuzzed minnow she saw fit to burst down there. She slipped a leg free of her rather frumpy Octo-witch costume and trailed a toe down Shigure's thigh until he got the hint and rolled over onto his back to show the crowd his swollen member to thunderous applause.
---
She blew a stream of hot air on the toes and smiled as they clenched in fear. She stuck out her tongue and coiled it around the big one to give it a rough suckling as Shigure went nuts with the wriggling down on the stage. Despite himself though his hands never once went to stop Ursula. Instead one clapped around his member and he had to use the other to try and restrain it.
"Now what new sensations would you want to feel on these I wonder? Why does this first little guppy want to be sucked like the cute little candy it is?"
The crowd went silent as they stared at Shigure. He shook his head to massive boos and a tongue cluck from Ursula that made him squeal due to what else was in her mouth. She popped his big toe out with a wet squeak and went on with the act. She leaned in close to just graze the pad of his index toe with her teeth and feel him tremble from the electric sensation. He pumped his cock unconsciously and gave the crowd quite the expression as the monsters howled and their victims laughed.
---
"Does this little guppy knows what happens on land? Why it's a *groan* fish eat fish world. The smart ones know you have to eat them before they eat you. The winner is the last one on their own two FEET!"
She punctuated that one with a sharp clack of her teeth that made Shigure pump himself again.
"Does the sheltered little princess think she's ready for that world?"
Again a hushed silence. Shigure looked at the starved looking crowd and again shook his head to boos.
Ursula shook her head and moved on to the next one. This time she took a loooong and loving lick of the middle toe. Then she did it again. Then once more. Then for variety, the same exact thing for a fourth time. When she came up for air the lad was seeing stars and had pumped his aching cock three or four times.
"Such a sweet face. Does this little guppy know what happens to sweet things on land? They get sampled until there's nothing left. Is that what this sweetiefooted little princess wants?"
---
Again a shake of the head this time greeted with crumpled up playbills thrown as projectiles from an incensed crowd. Shigure's eyes were open but all he was seeing were stars. To the point where Ursula moving on caught him entirely by surprise. His second to the last toesie was pushed back by a strong thumb letting it's poor sensitive stem be all scratched up.
Shigure didn't even have the breath to laugh at this point. His knuckles were white as he held back his to flood ready to burst out of his cock. He could barely shake his head but he knew what was coming. He wouldn't be able to take the next one. Ursula knew it too and that's why she savored her last little guppy.
---
She leaned in and planted a gentle kiss on that babiest of toes. Shigure came explosively to the point where his chest almost looked as if it had been painted. The crowd stomped their feet and the cheers were almost loud enough to prevent Shigure from drifting off to sleep as he nodded at Ursula asking him if he thought he was ready for the dangers of the land.
She said something about fantastical tales and all that but he couldn't hear a word of it over the crowd or the director's praise for his new leading man. His eyes closed to the curtain drawing and the rushing of stagehands towards him as he lost consciousness in a puddle of his own fluids.
---
He woke to the brushes applying make-up to his cheeks again. The women flitted about and made sure that the stockings he'd been attired in were without runs, the tuxedo he wore was without wrinkles and that the twenty pairs of socks he wore were sufficiently floofy. This last detail caused a raised blue eyebrow. While there was no possible way he wouldn't feel something from all that cloth cocooning his slender feet, what it was wasn't UNcomfortable. They felt warm and strangely safe as if they were in the embrace of a clothen protector.
He experimented with flexing his toes inside all of that and found that while he could move his piggies it wasn't much. A giggle escaped his lips as something inside all that cloth moved with his flexing. He didn't feel it on his immediate skin but he was now acutely aware of something buried in all those different socks somewhere. He tried to position it by flexing his feet but found there was another somewhere else in the other set of socks as well. The stagehands seized him by the arms and carried him forwards to a great throne before the curtain.
---
He was plopped into it just as the curtain began to draw and a new "actor" strode forward. Nina licked her lips at the sight of the blushing young princeling before her but turned to the audience to deliver her lines with gusto befitting the suave suit the silver-haired woman wore.
"Oh, woe betide our kingdom! Our crown prince is struck with an ailment that prevents him from walking! His royal sensitivities are his undoing! Why somewhere in the many pairs of woolen socks that the dashing young man wears to hide his royal peds are not one but TWO dastardly peas! One for each wiggly royal pie you see! Just see what happens when the dashing prince tries to stand!"
Shigure was seized by the arms and pulled up onto his feet which made him immediately bubble up into musical giggles. He danced from foot to foot trying to get those damn peas into a position that would allow him to stand. Whenever he tried to sit back into his "throne" Nina would be there to dance quick fingers along the small of his back and force him back onto his feet. He danced quite sillily to the hoots of the crowd while Nina delivered a performance so hammy that he wanted to laugh through his tickles.
---
"Why whoever could be brave yet clever enough to save our hapless prince from a life of soft-footed giggles? Won't anyone step forward and save his sole?"
"I WILL!"
The reactions on Nina and Shigure's faces were almost comical to watch change as the next actor strode onto the stage. His silver hair matching Nina's own made her shiver in disgust and the way he absentmindedly adjusted his eyepatch made Shigure shiver.
"Do not worry! I have a plan to save the handsome prince's delicate sole!"
Niles shouted the line with a more than appropriate amount of ham. Nonetheless, the crowd howled in gratitude and cheered for the sniper to help the poor ticklish boy. Shigure looked about for somewhere to go but knew that standing would just bring him more tickles. He struggled to decide between letting Niles play his games or making a tickly flight for freedom. Niles made the decision for him by side-stepping to block him from the backstage.
---
Niles took the flier's ankle in his hand and further played to the crowd before finally driving one finger into the young man's heel to make him jump in his chair.
The crowd roared with glee at Shigure's unmanly yelp and the blush that overtook his cheeks when he looked down at Niles hungry grin.
"Now first we must find the offending little veggie that so torments our fair prince! We'll have to look everywhere! From the highest peaks-"
Niles's expedition started by heading up into Shigure's arch making the pegasus knight tremble as he bit his knuckle to maintain composure.
"-down to the lowest lows where the fiendish little bean may hide!"
Niles's finger began making circles along Shigure's heel, expanding with each rotation to cover more ground. Shigure's eyes were so tightly closed that tears were leaking from their corners as the show continued.
"No matter how long it takes we'll sift through every inch of this poor foot AND FIND-oh poo there it is."
Shigure's eyes flew open as Niles circled his finger around where he'd found the pea. He began scritching ever so gently at one side of it to begin gently guiding it along Shigure's sole and up towards his ankle.
---
"It's only due to the sensitivity of royal blood that our handsome prince can even feel such a small thing through all these lovely pairs of wooly socks. To commoners like me or my lovely blushing daughter here, this would all just be a silly game but to someone of such fine breeding here as our ocean-haired princeling, this is unbearably ticklish."
Shigure was laughing his head off to prove Niles claims but there was somebody on stage who also had a reaction to what was said. Nina swallowed and looked into the crowd until she locked eyes with a certain pink-haired young lady. Soleil blew her a kiss without breaking stride on the rib-tickling she was giving the blonde pair she had in her lap. She gave Nina a wink as if to say that she would be testing that later before returning her full attention to making sure Ophelia and Forrest enjoyed the show.
Nina swallowed and decided she'd occupy her mind by showing up her no-good louse of a father. She took Shigure's other foot under her arm and proceeded to try and mimic Niles's movements to get the other pea up and out of Shigure's many sockies. She wasn't quite as skilled a lockpicker however so all she was really doing was giving Shigure a hell of a tickling which caused him to kick his legs and slow Niles down.
---
Eventually, though Niles popped the dastardly little pod fruit out the top of Shigure's sockies. He shooed Nina away and began on the other wiggling tootsie as she made a show of stumbling and almost falling into the audience where a drooling Soleil awaited her favorite suited siren and her pale size 8's. Nina corrected herself though and just barely dodged being dragged off stage by the ravenous pinkette. Niles popped the other pea out of Shigure's socks to thunderous applause. He displayed it between his thumb and forefinger and with a flourish turned to the bluenette on the throne.
"As the savior of the handsome prince, I suppose I'm obligated to a reward! So I'm going to challenge him to a game! If the handsome young royal takes his hands down from above his head he's going to lose those troublesome socks."
He pressed the green little tuber beneath Shigure's right nipple and moved it back and forth while using his free hands to guide the giggly boy's hands up into his preferred position. He folded them behind Shigure's head and signaled that the game could begin. Shigure looked in horror as Niles proceeded to pull open the loose material of his dancer's trouser and drop that evil little pea right down his underwear. For some reason, he was true to the fairy tale and the feeling of it settling beneath his balls was too much.
---
He took his hands down and proceeded to slap at his own kicking legs until he felt the horrid little thing dislodge. It shot out of his pant leg and right back into Niles's hand.
"Wow, that was sure quick wasn't it? I do believe that's a point for me. So those socks? Daughter? I'm sorry. Court assistant?"
Taking a bow the archer girl obliged. She knelt down before the throne and after sneaking a few tickles to Shigure's calves peeled off the ugly black woolen socks atop the pile that hid his pretty feet.
With a twirl, she tossed them into the audience for the crowd to fight over. They were both magically caught by a magician. He tucked both into the box he kept in his lap. Had anyone in the crowd looked inside it they would have found two pairs of disembodied feet that were locked in loving footsies now using the ugly socks as tools to scrub each other. His assistants, Marth and Merric had been naughty so the great magician had made them sit out this show. Still, he'd wanted some entertainment himself so after locking his boys in the boxes to take them apart he'd decided to take their handsome feet to the show anyway.
---
A certain someone in the audience had had enough though. As the whole show that tricky and teasy Nina had been taunting her. Whether it was wiggling her bubbly toes at her or stretching in a way that showed off just the smallest bit of her ticklish belly that belonged to Soleil and Soleil only! She was going to pay!
Soleil climbed onto the stage as Nina watched in horror. Various other tickle monsters and slaves were emboldened as well and followed her up. Soon the pinkette was standing in front of a not angry but thirsty mob! Nina tried to reason with Soleil so as to save the show but her father had other ideas. He stepped forward and seized his daughter's jacket to drop that evil little pea down it before shoving her right into the arms of Soleil.
Nina thrashed and twisted trying to dislodge the horrid little thing that was tickling all along her back. By which we of course mean Soleil who was taking great joy in tickling the archer's spine through her clothes. However, it wasn't enough! She wanted more!
With a roar, she charged forward with her Nina and the crowd followed her with Surtr sweeping up Niles as well. They deposited both actors right into Shigure's lap with enough force that his throne splintered beneath him. Soon all three of them were on their backs with their legs in the air as a crowd of tickle mad sluts and creatures ravished them. The three different pairs of feet stayed straight up in the air so theatrically that you'd be hard-pressed to believe it wasn't part of the show!
---
Niles had his shirt torn open and howled as his pink nipples and pecs were attacked from all sides by lips, finger tentacles, and even one beak! His sides were staked out by a pack of small gremlins who ran brushes in between the muscles there and did their best to avoid getting squashed. Surtr himself claimed the deviant's hips and kneaded them with massive fingers that made his favorite victim interrupt his own throaty laughter with moans of pleasure. His poor one-eyed weasel was drowned in oily raven feathers until it spurted in milk.
Nina had her nice suit torn open just like her papa and squealed like a piggy when a pair of lips began buzzing her breasts with kind raspberries. Her ribs were given cruel tweaks and poke however to contrast and through her foggy tickle haze, she wondered whatever in the hell was currently in her poor perky navel. It vibrated like it was alive and seemed to be trying to curl up in there. It almost felt like a fuzzy caterpillar was trying to hide in her navel from the fingers trying to pull it out by pinching her belly until it popped out.
Shigure himself though of course got it the roughest. As the star of the show, he was already a sweaty mess but now he felt the full brunt of his adoring public. His face was smooched, pecked, and kissed from all sides by beasts, men, and women alike. It felt like somebody had started a race in his armpits and dozens of pairs of fingers were neck in neck to see who could do the most laps in that blue-furred track. His pecs were attacked and rubbed as if a genie would come out eventually. His cock was pulled and squeezed while somebody had even snuck around to stroke a feather around the opening to his "Cave of Wonders" while he gasped and shook. Hel herself had snuggled into the pegasus knight's stomach and was deeply and passionately frenching his navel while he collapsed into airless wheezing.
Through it all, though the three pairs of feet stood straight in the air where they had been given special attention with a marker by an unknown party. They read "That's all folks!" as the curtain closed on the scene and the three came in perfect synchronicity while stagehands began to try to fight the crowd back.
---
With a start, Shigure woke and tried to fight off his attackers. The stagehands tending him let him flail weakly at that which had happened last show. It was routine at this point. They'd been in theater for a long time and had seen every kind of eccentricity from "stars" even ones of what was just essentially a fluffy striptease like this. Every show Shigure worked himself to the limit and his crowd to the limit until they charged the stage for him. He'd roar in ticklish agony for more and more and for it all to never end before he would faint with a great forced smile on his lips.
He'd wake up for the next show and insist he didn't want to perform but then a few lines in it was like he'd be a different person. Tonight they tossed him out on the stage with Xander and Leo performing for their ladies in the audience. The enchanted frogs hopped about the stage but stopped the second the star was in the spotlight. They were all the various tickle sluts of the castle looking for a big kiss from the debutante so they could be turned back and win their ticklish prize of first dibs on his backstage.
---
Shigure delivered his first few lines hesitantly to his "wicked step-sisters" who were circling him and slowly backing him towards a wall. He wasn't watching where he was going and let one froggy slip too close. It hopped atop one of his feet to give him a big kiss on the ankle and smoke filled the stage. When Shigure looked down, Prince Corrin had him by the leg and was already skittering fingers up his thigh. He tumbled backward as the other two brothers joined in and began the section that was just laughter.
However, as the frogs all started coming closer to his big defenseless feet his voice changed and the best part started as he delivered his lines through wheezing belly laughter just the way the crowd liked. After all, there was a reason this show sold out every night!
