Author's Note: Heeheehee. I'm really, really happy with how this turned out. I was scared to write it at first, thinking no one would get my references or how I was writing it, but I'm proud of this epic tease conclusion to the core four. Now, I know some people might want a Remus or Deceit self-insert tease. And I am...oddly not opposed to writing them. But I would need to see at least 20 notes on this particular fic before I consider it. Just because not everyone likes those characters and I want to make sure enough people want to see a self-insert with those sides. But anyways, here's Patton's Self-insert. I hope you all enjoy this epic conclusion(?) in the self-insert series! I(f you haven't read the first three, you might be a little lost on where this fic last picks up!)

       "Oh hiya kiddo! How're you doing?"

       "Eheheh. Oh don't worry about the vase. I cleaned it up an hour ago. Virgil told me what happened and I'm sorry I wasn't here sooner. Are you hurt at all from the shards of porcelain? Let me see your hand."

       "Oh good! No cuts! I was worried you might be hurt, but you seem fine enough! Well, I'm sorry Virgil didn't give you a particularly warm welcome. He's always a little nervous about things coming into the mind palace from the imagination. Heheheh, I'm sure you can imagine why."

       "Well since you're here, would you like to help me make some dinner?"

       "You will?! Aw, that's great kiddo! We'll be having pasta! Can I put you in charge of the boiling noodles? Here's the noodles and here's the pot. Over there's the faucet. Watch out! It's hot! Eheheheh!"

Time Passes

       "Omg! Well done! The noodles couldn't have turned out better! Aww, and look at that cute blush. I'm proud of ya kiddo. Oh! You give the best hugs! So snuggly and warm! Mmmm! How about we eat some pasta, yeah? I'll go get Virgil!"

Time Passes

       "Mmmm! That was amazing! Lemme tell ya, Pasta is always better when it's shared with friends! Eheheh! Now, I had been meaning to ask ya, what brings you out of the imagination?"

       "Exploring eh? No harm in that! You're name's not Dora is it?"

       "Ahahahah! I was just checking. Say, what do you think about playing a board game or two? Sound like fun? Would ya mind if we played Trouble?"

       "Do you know what trouble is? The rules are simple! It's an old famILY favorite of ours! There's a big button in the middle of the board with a dice inside. Player's start on opposite sides of the board and move in a clockwise motion At the beginning of everyone's turn, they push the button to roll the dice! If you roll a one or a six, you can get a peg out of home and begin to move it around the board on your next turn. Unless you roll a six, then you get to roll again! The objective is to get all four of your pegs out of home and around the board into your safe zone using the numbers that you roll from the dice on your turn! Watch out though! There's a catch. If your opponent happens to roll the dice, and their peg is that many spaces away from you as the number on the dice says; They can get your peg out and put it back in home, so you'd have to start the process all over again with that peg. Then the opponent would say 'Uh-Oh! You're in trouble!' Sound simple? It's a really fun game! You ready to play?"

       "Awesome!"

Time Passes

       "I'll go ahead and take my turn first then. I'm gonna press the button. I got a two. Because I don't have a peg already out, I can't move anything and it is now your turn."

       "Ooh! Nice! You got a six! Go ahead and get your first peg out! And you get to roll again!"

       "Five?! You're on a roll! Alright my turn! Hmm...nope. I gotta three. Still can't go. Your turn!"

       "Nice! You got a four! Go ahead and move your peg four spaces. Hey! You're almost have halfway through the board already. You're about to get into my territory. You better hope I don't get a peg out soon, or else I might just get you in trouuuuble."

       "Oh you are just too cute when you blush like that! Makes me want to pinch your cheeks...gently...I'd never do it too hard...like Aunt Patty. Oof."

       "Okay okay. My turn! Dang...a two. Go ahead."

       "Another five! You are really racking in the distance there, kiddo! Let's see here. Let's hope I get a peg out-YES! A six! Ohohoho! I'm behind youuuuuu! Let's see here...my current spot is about four spots away from you. So I'd need to roll a four if I wanted to get your peg out! Let's see what I get!"

       "Heeheeheee. Hey...hey y/n...what does the dice read?"

       "Four right? You know what this means right? 'You're in trouuuuble!' Now I never did specify what type of trouble you'd be in, did I?"

       "Right! I didn't. Would you like to know?"

       "Yeah? You would? Well, for starters, I'll say this. Just know that Logan and Roman aren't too keen on keeping secrets from the real tickle monster in the Sander's household. And a little birdy told me, that someone really really really liked to be tickled. Is this true?"

       "Awww. Don't shy away from me. I know you want it! I see you giggling behind your hands and that blush is creeping up to your ears."

       "Eheheheh. Scooting away from me isn't going to do anything now is it? I'm literally right next to you! All I'd need to do is gently grab your waist and pull you onto my lap! It would be so simple to reduce you to a pile of giggly soup!"

      "Oh and to make matters worse, or better, Logan told me all of your worst spots. So you can't hide any cute tickle spot from me, kiddo! Are you ready to get wrecked with tickles?"

       "Ohoho! Where do you think you're going? Gotcha! I got this foot! I wonder what I will do with it? I think I could take off the shoe and tickle your sole through the sock. I think Roman would be proud of that idea. Don't you? A-gootchie gootchie goo! Tickle tickle tickle! Poor unfortunate sole. Aww, your other sole wants attention too? Is that why you keep waving it near my face? I'm sure you weren't intentionally trying to kick me. Welp, now I have two socked and ticklish soles trapped in my grasp! Eheheheh!"

       "Aww I love your giggles, kiddo! Certainly the best of the west! Logan told me your knees were bad! Are they? Let me give 'em caps a couple tweaks. And the tweaks gave squeaks! So cute! I think I'll call them you're squeak knobs! Oh! What about behind the squeak knobs? Behind your knees? Eeheheheheh! Yes! Another tickly spot! Are ya having fun, y/n? I certainly am! The tickle monster always has fun when he tickles his kiddos."

       "Moving on up here! Gotch your thighs! Gootchie gootchie goo! And here's a pair of ticklish hips! You have just the cutest squeaks! I'm gonna die of cuteness! I've heard your sides are the worst, so I'll go ahead and avoid them for now! How about those armpits! Reach for the sky! Did you like my woody impression? No? Well, I'll tickle you until you say you did! Right here in your underarms. This has got to be some sensitive skin, right? I think I ammmm!"

       "I know Logan tried counting your ribs, but he did it from the top down. Should I start from the bottom up? Maybe he miscounted. You can never be too sure kiddo! One. Two. Three. Awwww you can't handle the tickles can you? Your ribs are just too ticklish for this! What if I went ever so slightly lighter? Would that help? Cutie pie you are! You just have the sweetest giggles ever!"

       "Uh-oh...what time is it? I think it's Tummy Time! Aww, just look at that cute belly and belly button! Hey! What do you think the dice will read if I press the button? I see four tummy tickles. You get a-tickle over here, a-tickle over there, and a-tickle-tickle everywhere! Such a cute tummy. Perfect for raspberries! What d'ya say? Aww, I think we both know your 'no's' are yesses! Here comes the raspberry!"

        "PFFBBBTTT!! Yes! Your giggles are certainly uplifting my spirits! How about I end this whole tickle session with neck and side tickles, yeah? Since I'm already using raspberries, do you want one on your side?"

       "Eheheh, I think you do! I'm gonna getcha. I'm gonna getcha! A-PFFFBBTTT!! Cutie patooti lemonade scooty. I don't know what I just said, but I know your sides are ready for a good tickle tickle tickling! Can't forget that neck now, can I? I'll squeeze your sides as I give your neck another RASPBERRY A-PFFBBBTTT!!"

       "Awww! You've taken that tickling really well! I'll just conjure a feather and gently trace around your neck to get the last of that belly-laughter out of ya. So so cute! It looks like the tickle monster Patton has won again! Sorry, if that was too sudden. I couldn't hide the fact that I wanted to tickle you anymore!"

       "Oh good. I'm glad you aren't mad with me. Would you want to continue our game of Trouble? I won't tickle you unless you ask for it this time."

       "I...I have your permission? Really? Oh thats great!! Thank you! So now I know each time that I get you in trouble I can tickle you!"

       "Wait...huh? What about if I get in trouble...you'll...oh...eheheheheh...well...it looks like the odds have evened themselves out then, huh kiddo?"

       "Well, We'll just see who the true tickle monster is after this game!"
