the bodyguard meme

never let her out of your sight. never let your guard down.

You're a pop star, or a royal, or maybe even the last of your kind who will bring about the Earth's redemption. Whatever the case may be, you're in a position that may be a bit dicey if you attract the wrong kind of attention.

And you're a bodyguard, a soldier, a knight - a protector. Somehow, you've been roped into protecting this person. You'll be rewarded, of course. The work may be cut out for you, but just do your job, keep your head down, and it'll go smooth.

Except for when the two of you break the bounds of professionalism and feelings begin to flourish. Being in such close quarters may get you to see the other in a different light, and saving someone's life just may be the ultimate form of intimacy.

Could this be the real danger? To feel so strongly for the one you've sworn to protect...are you compromised?

How to Play
1. Comment with your character and preferences, being sure to put if you want to play the guard, the guarded, or either. Also, you may want to put if you prefer fluffy, angsty, or smutty interaction - or have no preference.
2. Comment to others.
3. There are no prompts, because there are so many potential options there could be a hundred. Feel free to play anything: the beginnings of the relationship, just meeting, getting used to each other/not getting along at first, the obligatory first time, a threat on the protected's life and how their protector responds, how the feelings between the two has changed the protection, etc. Your only limit is you.

never fall in love.

[ While it would be fun to be the damsel, Nezumi seems stuck in guard mode. No preferences in lines of fluff/angst/smut. ]

((Definitely Guard. Raven's ~~very repressed~~ celibate so while smut isn't impossible it's just unlikely given his constant professionalism and stoicness.))

((Guard or guarded is fine- though guard is much more likely.))

[No smut. Will be the guarded.]

((mostly guard but I wouldn't object to guarded.))

[ooc: Or choose her Queenly form, located at

chose_my_path. She is available to do the guarding, or to be the guarded.]

[ooc: Either / or.]

((Guarded, but I'm open to ideas~ ))

[ She'll be doing the guarding! ]

[ She is both a princess and a knight! She can be either. Or both at once. ]

[ Guarded. ]

[ She turns into a giant goddamn dragon, but she is always the one being guarded, so. Whatevs! ]

[Can be either, considering her job]

((ooc: Dejah Thoris is a princess of Mars - she's more likely to be guarded))

[[ooc: On one hand, Kaguya's a princess. On the other, she's a lot tougher than she looks and frequently goes adventuring, so she could play either side.]]
