Something is not right with the universe.

Anything you need to talk about...you know my PM number, Mr. Fetish.

I hope all is well man and you don't have a case of the winter blues🙂

I think our dear friend Mr. Fetish has found someone who loves him. Notice, dear readers, that Fetish has shown more feelings lately. The ladies, inked, ilked or irked, respond. So, his day will be her day. That's my take...for what it's worth. I do hope all is cool, CAB.

 

[stampstock]

Oh yes...and Mind the Gap, my friend.

 

[MTJpub]

I hope all is well my friend. However, if life has got you down, I wish you a speedy recovery!

I very rarely post comments and am remiss in not thanking the artists who share their work here. That being said, I find this to be a powerful piece. Your ability to convey emotion through your art is simply amazing. Thank you for sharing all of your work here, and let me add that I hope all is well on the other side of the drawing board.

What, the irrepressible Mr. Fetish, repressed? Perhaps he just needs a change of pace and the young lady should have given him a taste of his own medicine for once.

 

[ChicagoTickler]

One's passions can dissipate over time. It is a sobering thing when your addictions become irrelevant....no pun intended.

Or perhaps Mr. Fetish is just suffering from low testosterone...

 

[kered]

Sometimes you have to quietly reflect on the past and the present to map out your future. I suspect Mr. Fetish as well as his creator may have to do this, just like the rest of us.

Very sad ,yet understandable , most of us have felt that way at one point or another. And when Mr. Fetish feels melancholy, we can all empathize. Hope you feel better soon little dude!

 

[Inticklergator]

Hope you're alright mate. I must admit my first thought was "surely she should close the curtains if she's not going to wear anything" but then maybe that's the point! Particularly clever making her the only thing with any colour too.

Is that the clock at Wesminster?

Mr Fetish is English? No wonder the poor fellow is down in the dumps, England in February is a rather dismal place. Even we stalwart, bowler-hatted, stiff upper lipped types get a little morose in the continual rain and dark afternoons.

Come along with me old chap, round to the the Albert and Toast Rack and we'll have a couple of halves of mild and a chat about the state of the road surface, that'll cheer you right up.

Then we can go back and drunkenly tickle that floosie of yours into a state of intense but denied arousal.

There there, chin up.

I hope all is well with you CAB. I was thinking the other day that your artwork had been absent as of late. Greatly appreciate all you contribute to the forum. If there is anything amiss, I hope that things get better for you soon.

 

[PQfingers]

@kered, well said.

 

[seanwoj]

Good work.

 

[ftkl_haha]

Excellent work, as always, C.A.B. I hope all is well with you.

 

[milagros317]

Very good work, as usual. 😀
Hope you are well.

 

[greenfeather77]

Ah yes...the grey days and the black dog

I never really post anything up here, I am one of many who just passively watch and observe, but I must say that CAB is a truly creative man who has a great passion for the tickling scene. I know my words are probably hollow, but I think that your constant artwork and stories bring us all up, and bring us great joy when we see your vision of this fetish. My guess this is a reflective piece, but if there is any obstacle in your way, I wish you the best in overcoming it, and that you enjoy all the days that life brings you.

Your artwork certainly brings a smile to my face, and I am sure I am not the only one.
🙂

Thank you for your artwork.

This portrait ironically reminds me of myself......except instead of girls wanting me to tickle them, it's filled with girls that try to talk to me from afar (out of room) despite knowing how lonely I am because of tickling.

 

[sole]

Hope things are well C.A.B. if there is anything we can do to help, let us know. Your work is not quite as enjoyable if the artist is not enjoying it.
:/

I like it. It shows another side to our beloved Mr. F.

 

[C.A.B.]

Thank you all.

One of the joys on this side of the drawing board is to see how folks react to a piece once its posted. Sometimes a concept is interpreted in unexpected ways. The fact that this particular piece invoked such empathy is a testament to Mr. Fetish, who it seems, has transcended a niche fetish comic character to someone that is well loved, and folks project themselves onto him deeply. And it is also a testament to the great depth of compassion of this community, that you transposed those feelings onto Mr. F's creator. I was surprised and very appreciative of your sentiment, which has made the installment more powerful than I ever intended.

I'm a little embarrassed to mention, and not to be anticlimactic, but the original idea was merely inspired by a rainy afternoon, coupled with trying to capture stereotypical English melancholy and so-called 'quiet desperation' (as Pink Floyd once coined); which in my opinion is not a negative, but rather perhaps, a strong motivation to get out and explore the entire world. Which, to their credit, the English did in a very grand way from their cozy little island home.

And there were a couple of other items I wanted to drop into this small strip; I wanted to show that it is okay to have a fetish and not feel beholding to it 24-7. It is okay to just "be." I also wanted to underscore that Mr. F's play partners are quite willing participants, if not, as shown, quite enthusiastic at times.

My heartfelt thanks to you all. I assure you all is well here, and there are plenty new surprises on the way. So now... 'back to the drawing board" as it were.
