THE ALPHA/BETA/OMEGA MEME


In our world, sexual roles are commonly defined by genders -- male or female or other, by sexualities -- gay or straight, bi or asexual or in-between. But what if they were defined by something else entirely?

Alpha/Beta/Omegaverse is a fusion of fanfiction tropes and animalistic behavior. In this world, sexual roles are divided into three categories: the Alphas (the dominant, the protective and the aggressive), the Betas (ordinary humans) and the Omegas (submissive, fertile and able to carry children).

CONTENT WARNING: Below the cut contains descriptions of animalistic sexual behavior as applied to humans, situations of dubious consent, explicit situations, mpreg, and scenarios of societal oppression. Click with caution!


ROLES:
1 - The Alpha.
* Stereotypically type A personalities.
* Anatomically: Males have a penis; females may have a penis in addition to a vagina.
* Alphas knot their mates, meaning that the base of the penis swells and locks them inside their mate while they produce copious amounts of semen in an effort to breed.
* Strong sense of smell.
* Near an Omega in heat, they experience a compulsion to mate that is almost impossible to overcome.
* Alphas may go into rut, which is their equivalent of Omega heat, and drives them to mate.

2 - The Beta.
* Ordinary human being.
* Males have penises; females have vaginas.
* Can mate to anyone.
* Might be able to smell hormones of Omegas and Alphas, but will not be overwhelmingly affected by them.

3 - The Omega.
* Stereotypically submissive, quiet, intelligent and less physically able.
* Female anatomy is similar to Betas; males are self-lubricating and may have either an external or internal vaginal setup.
* Regularly go into heat, which involves being overcome by the urge to mate. They are unable to consent while in heat.
* May be made compliant by a bite to the neck. However, that may also induce a mating bond.
* Often regarded as second-class citizens or prizes to be won.

SITUATIONS:
1 - Bonding - Love at first sight. You've spotted your soulmate. You can smell them, you can feel them, you know that they'll be with you until the end of your days. Unless there's something between the two of you. It could be age - maybe one of you has to wait until the other has reached maturity. It could be that the bond is one-sided, and the other has yet to fall in love. It could be an unwanted bond, or society could have divided you into different places. Is your love strong enough to conquer?

2 - Heat/Rut - The need is coming on you strong. Everyone for a half-mile around can smell it. Better find someone to ride it out with, or hole yourself up in a room with a few bottles of water and a durable sex toy. And you'd better hope that there isn't someone out there who will take advantage of your pliable state. Best case scenario, there might be a Beta who can take care of you, or fend off anyone too predatory.

3 - Pregnancy - Whether through a heat or not, you're pregnant. Congratulations - or condolences. Is it time to start a family, or time to start panicking?

4 - Suppressants - You're using suppressants to keep yourself on an even hormone cycle, skipping heats, or maybe pretending to pass as a different class of society. After all, Omegas might want to be in the military, where they're not usually allowed - or an Alpha might want to take a job in a university or as a nurse. Shouldn't they be allowed to, if their hormones are suppressed? Just hope that you don't miss a dose.

5 - Mistaken Identity - That friend that you always thought was an Alpha, or an Omega, or a neutral Beta, turns out to be something entirely different, and your world is turned absolutely upside down. Does it challenge your preconceptions? Or does it just ruin the balance between you two?

6 - Unlikely Pairs - After all, there's no actual reason that Alphas have to mate with Omegas. Maybe two Omegas can satisfy each other. Or two Alphas. Or your intended mate could easily be a Beta. Maybe this is just about breaking out of your pre-established role and becoming something new.

7 - Manifestation - In some cases, an individual may not know they are Omega, Beta or Alpha until their first heat/rut/manifestation, usually happening in early teen years. It may take you by surprise; it may be a blessing, or may be a deep disappointment.

8 - Other - Adventures in getting jobs, making families, fighting bad guys, and anything else you can come up with!

Not planning on it.

[In fact, he was trying intensely not to move at all. It felt like this strange mix of pressure-pain and infinite pleasure. Panting, his arms started to tremble as he kept himself up, body pressed in tight against him.]

Jesus... I can't... fucking tight.

[Words? What were words? He didn't need words. What he needed was more of Derek.]
allhale: (pleased)

Soooo sorry for my epic lag!

[personal profile] allhale 2013-10-04 07:10 am (UTC)(link)
[His leg started to ache so he shifted a little and cried out as the tilt had the knot rubbing on that spot inside him that had his eyes rolling back.]

Fuuuuuck. I can't take it. I have to -

[He rocked his hips and squeezed tightly around him, starting slowly then becoming a frantic rhythm that had him making more whimpers that he would be embarrassed about if it hadn't felt so incredible.]
teenyoda: (Look - Breath hold 1)

Not a problem =)

[personal profile] teenyoda 2013-10-04 06:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[Stiles was fine up until Derek shifted. Then he squeezed.]

Oh my god, Derek, what the fuck!?

[His hands were gripping at his hips like a vice as he pressed into him, an inarticulate and strangled cry leaving him at how good that felt. It rode the thin edge of pain, but it was buffered by the intense pleasure that followed it.]
allhale: (watching)

[personal profile] allhale 2013-10-10 07:38 am (UTC)(link)
Move with me. Just a little. Just enough. Need to come again.

[Derek felt like he was on fire again only this time he wasn't sure if it was the heat or simply having an erogenous zone stroked like that. Probably both. It felt incredible.]

Fuck, please, I need - Stiles, come with me.
teenyoda: (Look - Close talking 1)

[personal profile] teenyoda 2013-10-10 07:40 am (UTC)(link)
[He couldn't say not to that, not with the way Derek was pleading and how his body felt tight around his own. He was careful, unsure if he'd hurt either Derek or himself, but he started moving, leaning down and opening his mouth to taste the closest part of Derek he could reach with it. Chest, neck, lips, he didn't care, but he needed something.]
allhale: (kiss)

[personal profile] allhale 2013-10-10 08:51 am (UTC)(link)
[His hands moved up from his hips, a light drag of nails up his back. Then he cupped Stiles head in them, fingers ruffling through the short strands of his hair. He guided his mouth back to his and kissed him deeply, this one not remotely hesitant. It was passionate and hungry, his moans captured between each slide and thrust of his tongue.]
teenyoda: (O Face - 1)

[personal profile] teenyoda 2013-10-10 08:57 am (UTC)(link)
[Once he felt lips on his own, Stiles let the kiss take over, a hand gripping at Derek to keep him close so the movements weren't too much. Nothing that might hurt either of them. He had no idea what to expect, but the pressure felt like it was building up even more and he moaned, loudly and emphatically as he felt the release of it begin to start.]

Oh... shit. Oh god. Derek... I--

[He couldn't get anything further out, not when his breath was caught in his chest when the second phase of his orgasm flooded him, almost making him black out as he came. And came. And came, the knot finally starting to deflate.]
allhale: (bared throat)

[personal profile] allhale 2013-10-10 10:43 am (UTC)(link)
[The moan that Stiles let out made Derek's toes curl and his legs grip him tighter. He could tell he was going to come, not from the words but the fact that the knot got bigger. Every move of their bodies sent a mingled spike of pleasure/pain through him.

Where Stiles went silent Derek got loud, a near howl coming from him as his back arched and his come rushed over his stomach again. It mimicked the feel of the flood of heat inside him, dragging his orgasm out until they were both finished.

teenyoda: (Look - Tightlipped 1)

[personal profile] teenyoda 2013-10-10 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[Stiles was panting, breathing hard and biting at Derek's neck, sucking marks in that would disappear before they'd have a chance to show.]

Oh. My. God.

[He wanted to collapse, but he also had to figure out how to extricate himself from the tight heat of Derek's ass.]
allhale: (pleased)

[personal profile] allhale 2013-10-11 05:23 am (UTC)(link)
[Derek made a soft noise that may have been an agreement or possible just a satisfied whimper. He slowly and carefully unwrapped his legs from around Stiles, letting them fall to the bed as he tried to catch his breath. For the first time in days he felt a sense of relief from the endless need.]

Mmph.
teenyoda: (Look - Down 5)

[personal profile] teenyoda 2013-10-11 10:45 am (UTC)(link)
[Stiles carefully pulled himself out, looking down to see if there was anything wrong or different with his dick. Looked the same to him, but obviously there'd been something going on for him to knot like that. When he was free, he moved over to lay in an exhausted heap beside Derek, nose against his shoulder.]

Um... thanks. That was... yeah.
allhale: (pft figures)

[personal profile] allhale 2013-10-12 09:04 am (UTC)(link)
[Derek turned his head to look at Stiles, his flickering scattered thoughts coming together slowly. The red eyes and the teeth the ten had had briefly being most prevalent in his mind.

Stiles was an Alpha. Stiles was an Alpha.

How the hell was that even possible? He didn't think it was likely that Scott had given him the bite, unless one of the annoying twins had done it.
]

I think ... I'm supposed to be thanking you ... Alpha.

teenyoda: (Look - 5)

[personal profile] teenyoda 2013-10-12 09:20 am (UTC)(link)
[There was a moment of stillness and he lay there, thinking about that word. Was he? Well, Derek would know, right? That had certainly been unexpected and he had no idea how any of that had happened.]

Um, yeah. I guess so?

[Scott most definitely had not bitten him and Stiles couldn't remember taking any moonlit strolls with the twins, or any other Alpha for that matter. Well, other than Peter, but he'd said no, so...]
allhale: (excuse me?)

[personal profile] allhale 2013-10-12 09:44 am (UTC)(link)
[He watched his expression carefully and his eyebrows went up when something occurred to him.]

You had no idea until today, did you? You didn't know you were - are - an Alpha at all. No one has bitten you?
teenyoda: (Look - Down Frowning 1)

[personal profile] teenyoda 2013-10-12 08:19 pm (UTC)(link)
That would be a negatory. This whole thing is kind of way out of left field. Like, from another planet left field.

[He should probably be a little more self conscious having this discussion naked lying beside the guy he'd just lost his virginity to (oh my GOD) after freakin' knotting him. Derek. Derek Hale. He'd just-- Yeah. His brain was in stunned mode.

And his nose was still brushing against Derek's shoulder, liking the scent of him like this.]
