flo_neljaHello, writer friend, I hope you're well! I have tried to add a bit of info to the signup, though of course all the prompts are optional, they're only here if you like them (I like them)
Good writing!
What I like:
* Characters physically enjoying it and orgasming, but (for the victim(s) at least) being emotionally devastated.
* So, all the angst and feelings! I'm all there for the emotional pain! The betrayal, the guilt, the powerlessness, the regrets... Also, in situations where it applies, the ethical dilemmas, the pining, the mental breakdowns.
* I love all kind of supernatural influences. Mind manipulation, sex pollen, aliens made them do it, everything that makes the characters lose control and it's terrifying.
* All kind of supernatural elements in general, really, be it xeno or use of magical powers in sex.
* I love dialogue and characters talking. Begging, threats, being forced to tell out loud what they feel, gloating, lies or hard truths, everything.
* I like it when the characters (including the victims) keep all their skills, be it cleverness, magic, snark, strength. It won't be enough to avoid the rape, but it could save them from even worse, or save other people.
Do not want:
* All kinds of AUs except canon divergence and low fantasy/magical realism AU for mundane fandoms. Even in these AUs, I'd rather characters keep their canon personality and most of their history.
* Bimbofication. BIG squick here. Actually, avoid the words "bimbo" and "himbo" altogether.
* Ageplay, infantilization, daddy and mommy kink. Underage under 14yo. Magical premature aging or age regression, even non-sexual. Unrequited incest.
* Any precise mention of the size of penis, breasts or any genitalia (big or small is okay, I don't want the cup size or the centimeters)
* Surgery, physical medical examinations. Needles. Epidemics and pandemics. Gore, non-canon heavy injuries, especially with lasting effects.
* I'm not into reference to real life issues: racism, sexism, homophobia, ideally don't exist here, except if mentioned otherwise in the fandom prompts. Not do STDs. Neither references to institutional rape or slavery.
* Gender as a central theme. Pegging.
* Any kind of "mechanical" rape, where the characters don't have strong emotions about it.
* Mention of any character being in love/lust of another only for their looks. Actually, most "love at first sight" stories except mentioned otherwise.
* Mentions of pregnancy. Lactation.
* 2nd person PoV. External PoV.
* Watersports or scat or emetophilia or food kink as the center of the story (it's okay if it's a passing mention)
* Non-canon character death, except for the evil alternate doubles who appear in some prompts. (it includes innocent OCs being massively killed - threats are fine if everyone is saved in the end).
* Characters losing their jobs or having economical problems. Bashing of the NHS or other help/free government services.
* Hair shaving
Christabel (Coleridge)
Geraldine xcons Christabel
Freeeforms:
* Magic - Xcon Gives Agressor Influence Over Victim
* Mind Control
* Magic - Ritual/Spell Requires Xcon
* Motive - Aggressor is reenacting past violence done to them on innocent third party
* Intimacy - Aggressor Cuddles Victim After Xcon
* Intimacy - Forced Kissing
* Arousal - Forced to Enjoy Xcon
* Arousal - Victim Orgasms and Is Ashamed
* Arousal - Victim Ashamed of Enjoying Xcon
If you don't know it: it's unfinished, short (for a book, long for a poem) and deliciously femslashy. It also has a spell of mind control by bosom touch.
She took two paces, and a stride,
And lay down by the maiden's side:
And in her arms the maid she took,
Ah wel-a-day!
And with low voice and doleful look
These words did say:
In the touch of this bosom there worketh a spell,
Which is lord of thy utterance, Christabel!
What I want for this fandom: more mind control, sex as a way mind control - it's a very small departure from canon, really, dignified whump for Christabel, Geraldine being evil and hot.
Also, as it's unfinished, maybe some answers about the plot? What is Geraldine's plan? Is she really the daughter of the former friend (boyfriend?) of Christabel's father, killed by brigands and turned into an evil spirit? Or is she lying all the way? And what does she want?

Evil spider-enforced soulbond! Really it's one of my fave canon things and I think I'll take any take on it.
Annabelle Cane xcons Oliver Banks (TMA)
* Arousal - Forced to Enjoy Xcon
* Gender/Sexuality - Victim's Sexuality Does Not Include Gender of Aggressor(s)
* Attitude - Victim Pretends Recurring Xcons Are No Big Deal To Infuriate Aggressor(s)
* Attitude - Aggressor is totally nonchalant about xcon
* Body control
* Mind Control
* Mind Control - Victim Partially Resisting
* Arousal - Forced Orgasm
* Arousal - Multiple Orgasms
* Motive - To Xcon-by-Proxy Entity Possessing/Controlling Victim
* Religion - Aggressor Claims Xcon Will Provoke Deeper Spiritual Revelations
I love Oliver's shrug in 121 about, yeah, the spiders made me do it, it happens. I'd like more of it, and well, we're in a dubcon exchange. I like them being acquaintances, or toxic friends, or actual friends with a very twisted sense of ethics.
Maybe Annabelle wants to know if mind control can bypass Oliver's dead state as sexual pleasure is concernes. Maybe it's a metaphorical way of having power over death. Maybe, as the End works a lot with fate, Oliver no longer believed in free will anyway. Maybe she treats him to a dubcon date for waking up Jon.

* Character(s) Wanted It But Not Like This
* Motive - To Assert Dominance Over Violent/Feral Character
* Scenario - Forced to Live Out Darkest Fantasy
I love Basira and Daisy being loving but unhealthily codependant, and this being used for manipulation, by one of them or by someone else.
Melanie King & Helen xcons Jared Hopworth
* Weapons - Knifeplay
* Humiliation - Victim Treated Like Fucktoy
* Altered States - Hallucinations
* Bloodplay
You know I just want the noncon version of Jared entering the Institute thinking he would easily kill everyone, and being beaten by Melanie's endless knives and murder attitude, and Helen's corridor tricks. Some full reversal dynamics with him being threatened, and used for his body, and hating it.
Michael xcons Sasha James

* Dynamic - Xcon is Better than Victim's Consensual Experiences
* Monster - Sexually Transmitted Monsterism
I loved Michael's canon interaction with Sasha, and their almost date, and I would like some mindfucky, unhealthily Romantic dubcon or noncon for them. It can be a dream, can be a minor canon divergence, or a major one where Sasha is eaten by the Spiral rather than the Stranger.
Marvel 616
Shadow King makes Exodus and Magneto mxcon (616)

* Dynamic - Superpower Sex
* Character(s) Wanted It But Not Like This
* Altered States - Dream Sex

* Mind Control - Xconned by Mind Controlled/Brainwashed/Possessed Character
* Mind Control - Victim Aware of Actions But Unable to Stop Them
* Scenario - Aggressor escalates xcon into ever increasing depravity
I'm here for anything in the nineties, or Bunn's Uncanny X-men Superior, or Krakoa arc - I haven't read it in it's entirety but I know the settings. Generic X-men setting is good too, anything in 616, and you can go alternate timeline at any turn! Hmm except maybe in Carey's arc about Xavier, I love it! but depowered Magneto is not what I have in mind here!
I love some very creepy sexualized mind control with still an heroic ending, Claremont style. Though bad ending is totally an option too. Go wild!
It can be subtle mind influence here Exodus' weird devotion and Magneto's desire for control are pushed to unhealthy extremes by an evil but hidden force. Or it can be full brainwashing. Or slow evolution from one to the other. For the Shadow King, it can be for revenge, for evil plans for the future, or for kinky gratification. It will be good anyway!

* Arousal - Victim Ashamed of Enjoying Xcon
* Altered States - Victim Dosed with Aphrodisiac
I'd like better Angel PoV for this, except you have really interesting theories about troll mentality that you want to show
My prompts assume post-canon, but if you really want to write Angel yield while the baby troll lives in his house, I don't mind canon divergence at all.
I'd like better for the multiple human deaths which certainly happen during this time not to be mentioned too much. I'm not here for the canon troll apocalypse, just the canon troll sex pollen :-)
Because yeah at the end of the book, he's literally dosed with sex pollen and in a cave full of trolls. We know how it can end. Can his baby troll claim him from himself? Will there be gang rapes? Or both? Will Angel try to keep his mind to himself, or won't he be able to resist, being desperate for sex with anyone? I see the baby troll being affectionate, but the others not at all. they don't kill him because he helped one of theirs, sure, but they don't have to like him.

My fave dynamics is Izzy pining for Ed and having a big masochistic crush, and Ed honestly liking him, but not this way (and not in a way that will stop them getting mad as each other).
I love Izzy not being clear with himself about what he wants. And still when he gets it, it's in the worse way, and he's having a totally miserable time. It can be his own fault, or him being unlucky.
I love Ed at his most brilliant and as his most depressed, or a mix of the two. I love competence kink for him, and dark introspection, and if it's not his PoV reactions that seem too extreme or not extreme enough and you can't always say if it's him putting a show or depression.
I love pre-canon, but everything is alright! If it's not pre-canon, Ed is still in love with Stede, that's not negotiable, but I really don't like Steddy Hands.
