Chain Reaction {Kurapika and Leorio}

A/N: oughh these were both cute but i decided to go with Kurapika and Leorio because i adore them, i love how Leorio is like a dad to basically the whole group, but I especially like how sweet he is with Kurapika hehe. I must warn you this might be ooc since its my first time writing for hxh and i’m still only on episode 20 or so whoops. Still hope you like it!

Summary: Kurapika has been preparing a new trick, but when trying to show it to Leorio, things go a bit haywire.

Word Count: 1.1k (under the cut)

“Leorio, I need to show you something,” Kurapika said, sounding eager as he tapped Leorio’s shoulder, who was sitting at the table working on something.

Leorio turned in the chair, looking at the shorter blonde boy as he smiled.

“Sure, what’s up?”

Kurapika grinned. He had been working on a new way to use his chains, a way without Nen. It wasn’t perfect yet, and he was still making a few mistakes, but he felt confident enough to share it with Leorio.

He took a few steps back from Leorio, raising his hands. His chains slowly swirled around him, almost like a carousel as he focused, straining a bit.

“That’s really cool Kurapika!” Leorio said encouragingly, and Kurapika grinned, his confidence growing.

“You haven’t seen anything yet,” He said, almost cockily as the chains changed directions, Leorio watching enthusiastically from where he sat. He made a funny face, one that suddenly caught Kurapika’s attention. Leorio sneezed, the loud noise breaking Kurapika’s attention as his chains whipped around out of his control. Kurapika let out a sharp cry, tripping backwards over his own feet as his chains wrapped around him.

Leorio gasped, quickly jumping out of his chair and rushing over to Kurapika. Kurapika struggled, trying to get out of the chains, but only managing to free one of his arms, which didn’t do him much good.

“Kurapika! Are you okay?”

“I-I’m fine, just a bit embarrassed now. Sorry, I meant for my trick to be cooler…”

Leorio shook his head, kneeling down next to Kurapika and immediately reaching over, grabbing onto the chains.

“Don’t apologize, kiddo. Let me help you out of these,” Leorio said, and Kurapika smiled. It was always nice to have Leorio around, he was like a father to him and his other friends, Gon and Killua.

Kurapika winced when Leorio grabbed at a chain near his hip, Leorio quickly noticed and pulled his hands back, looking at Kurapika with worry on his face.

“Did I hurt you?” He asked, and Kurapika shook his head, his face heating up slightly from embarrassment.

“No, it just - it tickled…”

Leorio raised an eyebrow, Kurapika quickly averting his gaze to avoid further embarrassment, which also led him to missing the grin from Leorio.

“Alright then,” Leorio said, a lilt in his voice that he couldn’t hide. Leorio went back to untangling Kurapika, though he slipped in a few “accidental” pokes that made Kurapika flinch.

“Leorio!” He whined, “Stop messing around and get me out of these!”

“Oh? I don’t think you realize the situation you’re in, Kurapika~”

Kurapika looked at Leorio with wide eyes, shaking his head as he giggled nervously. Leorio only chuckled, Kurapika already attempting to roll away before Leorio grabbed him, digging into his sides as Kurapika squawked immediately and uncharacteristically, though still managed to hold back his laughter.

“L-Leorio! Quit it! J-Just get me out of this!”

“Heh, you’re awfully cocky for someone who’s so ticklish you know,” Leorio teased, tickling his sides gently as Kurapika bit his lip, trying to keep himself from so much as giggling. Leorio raised an eyebrow, chuckling amusedly.

“I wonder how long you can go without laughing?” He proposed, almost as a challenge as Kurapika whined, a giggle slipping through when Leorio moved to his waist. Leorio tutted and Kurapika’s face started to go red from all the laughter he was withholding.

“I… was joking, Kurapika. You can laugh, you might explode otherwise.”

Kurapika shook his head, still refusing to laugh. Leorio rolled his eyes at the younger ones antics, figuring it was more funny than anything as he kept up the work on his waist, reaching down and tweaking his hip experimentally.

Kurapika jolted, looking up at Leorio fearfully, who flashed him a mere grin before digging in, making Kurapika instantly burst into laughter.

“Leheheorio! Wahahait!”

“Why wait? Not like you’re getting out of this anytime soon,” Leorio chuckled, Kurapika swatting at him with his one free hand, too busy to care about getting out of the chains now. Leorio dug his fingers gently into Kurapika’s hips, slowly climbing up to his ribs as Kurapika squealed, trying to wriggle away but only managing to tangle himself up more.

“Careful now, keep wiggling and I might not be able to get you out. I’m trying to help you, y’know!”

“Nohohot h-hehelping!” Kurapika wailed, his free arm flailing and whacking Leorio, though not hard enough to hurt. Leorio hummed, now scribbling his fingers over Kurapika’s exposed tummy, making Kurapika jolt.

He flopped around, trying to roll away again, Leorio quickly adjusting him as Kurapika cackled. He struggled in his chains, trying both to get away from Leorio’s tickly fingers and also to try and free himself.

Leorio laughed with Kurapika as he tickled the poor boy, who flopped around like a fish out of water, his blonde hair all over his face as he tried to wriggle away. Leorio went back to Kurapika’s ribs, now his upper ribs.

Kurapika panicked, feeling Leorio get closer to one of his worst spots as he kicked his legs as much as he could in the chains, Leorio’s hands slowly creeping upwards…

Kurapika shrieked when Leorio finally dug under his arms, scribbling his fingers in the hollows as Kurapika arched his back, laughing loudly and rather undignified compared to his normally composed nature.

“LEheheorio!! Not thehehere!” Kurapika cried out, squirming from side to side as Leorio whistled, continuing to tease the sensitive hollows as Kurapika flopped, clamping his already trapped arms harder against his sides to try and nullify the sensations, only managing to trap Leorio’s hands.

“Not where? Not here? Why not?”

“Behehehecause! I-It’s bahad!”

Leorio hummed, pulling his hands out from under Kurapika’s arms. Kurapika panted heavily as Leorio chuckled at him.

“Had enough?”

Kurapika nodded quickly, and Leorio laughed. He finally helped Kurapika get untangled from his chains, minding how he grabbed the chains so he wouldn’t accidentally tickle him again. Finally, Kurapika was freed, and he immediately stretched, glad to be free.

He squeaked when Leorio poked his side as he stretched, retracting his hand quickly as he chuckled.

“Couldn’t help it.”

“You sure could’ve,” Kurapika huffed, though there was a small grin on his face that Leorio didn’t miss. He went back to his chair, turning it so it was facing Kurapika as he sat down.

“Well? Are you gonna show me the trick for real this time? I won’t sneeze, I promise.” Leorio said, and Kurapika raised and eyebrow. “Or tickle you.”

Kurapika smiled, going back to his position at the start of the trick with a grin.

“Watch this.”
