t a b o o

Most societies have certain mores that are unspoken rules; humanity itself even has such conventions, grilled subconsciously into our minds for our own safety. Don't go out alone at night. Avoid getting wet when it's cold. Don't pick fights with those stronger than you...okay, some of us missed the boat on the last one, but the point still stands. Society's rules tend to be more variable, though they apply to most aspects of life - including sex. In fact, bending the rules on what's considered acceptable in romance and sexual encounters can lead to anything from ostracization to death, depending on the time and culture.

So, play it close to the chest if you're going to do a big, big, big t a b o o. Is it worth the risk?

- Comment with your character and preferences. Be sure to include what you want and what you DON'T WANT. Blank comments are fine; info is even better!
- Reply to others.
- Be fun and respect others, as this will deal with some heavy topics and potentially triggering material s.

A G E ( DIFFERENCE ) - light of my life, fire of my loins. you're supposed to stick to those your own age, but you can't resist.
I N C E S T - you're of the same blood, yet something draws you together. you'll keep your secret thicker than water.
C H E A T I N G - when you were young, they should have taught you to not take things that belong to other people.
I N ( PUBLIC ) - to involve unsuspecting others in your sex is insidious, but you can't resist it.
S U P E R F L U O U S - some conservative societies view sex outside procreational purposes as taboo. that means anal, oral, and toys are all no-go.
F I X A T I O N - you're nearly obsessed with one part of your partner - breasts, ass, lips...whatever the case may be, you always focus on that.
D E V I A N C Y ( IN SUBURBIA ) - there are some things that should be sacred. the home should be one of those. should.
S I Z E - pick on someone your own size. couples with large size difference, be it height or weight, can be looked down upon; don't let that get you down.
P H O B I A - unfortunately, in some societies, being with someone of the same gender is a taboo, no matter how much progress the modern world has made.
F E T I S H - some just can't get off without their fetish, and the varieties run the gamut: feet, crossdressing, autoerotic asphyxiation, foodplay, bondage...it goes on and on.
U N E X P E C T E D ( DOMINATION/SUBMISSION ) - the masculine must be dominant. the feminine must be submissive. what if you're dominant in life, though, and just want to be submissive in the bedroom.
V I O L E N T - more than mere lover's spats, what goes on between you two is dangerous. if people knew, they'd be horrified. still, you can't stop.
F O R B I D D E N ( LOVE ) - your relationship may be taboo, but there's genuine love in your copulation. this isn't merely a thrill.
L O O S E - monogamy isn't what you're after. no matter how looked down upon it is, you're going to have fun while you can.
S T U D E N T / T E A C H E R - what goes on between the sheets is not an appropriate subject matter to teach. there's so much to lose; is it a smart game to play?
A U T H O R I T Y - perhaps they're the boss, the president, the king, but you, you're a lowly peon. are they using their powers over you or is this something you both want?
I N T E R S P E C I E S - kind finds kind, and don't you be a traitor by being with one of them.
B E S T I A L I T Y - one of the most primal taboos. will you go into that moral wilderness?
S O C I A L ( CLASS ) - the rich. the poor. it's like they're in two different worlds. what will the uppercrust say if they saw their golden child with a tramp?
C E L I B A C Y - you are supposed to keep your chastity, but things are never that easy.
S T O C K H O L M - prisoners should never fall for their guards.
D U T I E S - whether it be saving the world or being the world's best bodyguard, your sworn quest and purpose keeps you from enjoying the sins of the flesh - especially with your charges.
I N N O C E N C E - one of you is much more worldly, and to ruin the "innocence" of the other feels unclean.
F E R T I L E - you aren't supposed to find mothers or fathers sexually alluring. however, there's something so enticing about fertility...perhaps even pregnancy.
C O R R U P T I O N - society expects you to treat your partner well, not try to destroy them through sexual degradation.
N O N C O N S E N S U A L - consent is rightfully important to a healthy sexual relationship. to break that trust is taboo.

[Not big on fixation or fertile. Everything else, especially age differences A+]

Edited 2014-02-07 02:39 (UTC)

[ Yes: Cheating, In public (for true public scening, he won't be getting undressed. Trying to 'hide' it would also be fun!), Superfluous (sexual relationship with Sephiroth firmly refusing to get all emotional about it? Yes pls), Fixation, Deviancy, Phobia (would probably have to be on the part of the other character), Fetish (Sephiroth's boots. Just throwin' that out there) , Unepected (or expected) D/s (pretty much my fav along with combing with others), Violent, Forbidden Love, Loose, Student/Teacher, Authority, Social class, Celibacy, Stockholm, Duties, Corruption

Maybe: Age difference (no younger than 17 please), size (I'd still like it be somewhat realistic), Incest, Interspecies, Innocence, Fertile, Nonconsensual.

No: Bestiality

I'm pretty open to most options in the yes category, but we might to need to talk a little on the maybes. AUs and/or assumed CR are probably a must. I'm a bit on the slow side, but will backtag forever. ]

[Angeal knew it was going to be quite the day after long, nearly incoherent with rage emails flooded his phonee from none other than Hojo himself. He should consider himself lucky that they were only directed at him, but then again he supposed that the Professor didn't want this little 'secret' to be let out.]

>> I should really read these to you out loud. Just how exactly did you tell him?

[He texts his friend back, unable to help the amusement that was sure to carry over, despite his initial panic and embarrassment. A pause, and he sends another one right after.]

>> ETA is in 5

When Genesis invited Sephiroth over to his room, his words were laced with a need that went far beyond mere companionship.

Everyone in SOLDIER knew, or at least had a feeling, that the redhead commander was definitely in a relationship with his childhood friend. And no one knew this better than Sephiroth, who was their closest friend.

He would have noticed from the fond way Genesis looks at Angeal and the way they laced fingers whenever possible that they truly were in a relationship. And that when either of the two went into their partner's room, it was certain that they wouldn't emerge until morning.

But tonight, Genesis didn't want his lover. There was no telling how long he had longed to steal Sephiroth away. Well, at least for now, it wasn't information he was to divulge.

"Just this one night," he said as he shut the door behind them and locked it. "Won't you grant me this one night, Sephiroth?"

[I'd adore: Size, (semi)Public, Violent, Authority. But please No: Bestiality, Fertile, Innocence, and Nonconsensual. Everything else I am totally a go for! ]

Ye Genesis had called and while a niggling suspicion had set in the back of Sephiroth's head, he'd thought that he was imaging the impression he got. So he showed up slightly worried and even more so when Angeal wasn't there. He wondered if something had happened and was about to ask when Genesis asks that.

At first he thought he much have heard the other man wrong, or took the question the wrong way.

Because Genesis certainly wasn't asking him what it seemed.

"Genesis, what's this about?"

In the bluntest way possible.

[ AKA Hojo had managed to bounce a little too much on the General nerves. He wouldn't think to use his relationship with Angeal as weapon under most circumstances but in this one case it had happened and well speculating on whether or not Hojo would explode or die of self-asphyxiation first had been entertaining. Sadly neither one had happened. ]

Good. I'll be home.

Genesis laughs softly. Maybe he was definitely a fool to do this: to try to do something with Sephiroth behind Angeal's back. There as a little knot of nervousness at the pit of his stomach. Was he truly afraid of what could happen if he was found out? Or even worse, if Sephiroth was to reject him and tell on their mutual friend?

But tonight, Angeal was out on a mission, and Genesis found that he couldn't hold himself back any longer.

"I apologize, I have a confession to make. I've wanted you since my boyhood. I have wanted you terribly."

And it was no lie. The General could possibly see it in the other man's eyes: clear and without deceit. And Genesis would even say that on some nights, when he lies with Angeal, he thinks of Sephiroth at the very height of pleasure.

A confused frown threatened to turn to a scowl. These were his friends. To some that was a small word, a simple, easy word, but not to Sephiroth. Of friends he had precisely two: Genesis and Angeal. Even then Sephiroth had tacitly remained at a distant from them partly because of their relationship to each other. At first he'd thought them close friends and later discovered how close. It wasn't something he ever thought to intrude upon and certainly not like this.

Perhaps he'd wondered on occasion what it would be like to be that close to someone (to them), this? No, he couldn't.

"I won't betray Angeal, Genesis, and I can't believe you'd even consider such a thing."

>> If I die in a mysterious science-related accident, I'll know who to blame.

[But he is clearly teasing the other about that. After all, he has Sephiroth to watch his back. Angeal shifts to check how how much further the ride back to headquarters was, and briefly he considers the best way to get back.

...Really, only now was he worried about sneaking around? A little to late for that, Angeal scolds himself, and simply resigns himself to going about things the normal way. ]

>> Not the best day in the lab then, I assume.

Betrayal. It was a painful word. It cut through him like a knife. But it was something Genesis wasn't afraid of if it got him what he wanted. However, he had to admit that betraying either of his closest friends was a difficult thing for even someone as selfish as he was.

His heart beat fast. Would he retreat now? Would he press forward and try to force Sephiroth? Risk tearing apart the friendship they've taken so long to forge?

But there were ways to twist words to his advantage... to try to persuade until he isn't able to any longer...

"It won't be betraying him," Genesis kept his voice low and calm, as if he wasn't scrambling for a way to convince Sephiroth to stay with him. "He knows. Angeal knows how much I've wanted you for the longest time."

It wasn't an all out lie, after all. Genesis' admiration of Sephiroth was practically a boyhood crush everyone in Banora knew so well. He never dared to hide it. And he was certain Angeal was aware of the danger when the boy he loved made friends with the boy he had always wanted to be an equal to.

Well I hear they are working on a new hybrid.

[ The joys of dealing with ShinRa especially when Hojo and Hollander go head on at each other. He only hopes this time they manage to kill each other. It would save them all many, many headaches.

Although - that did give him an idea. ]

Is a day there ever the best? You know, we could change that though.

Well, Genesis avoided a rarely seen scowl. Instead both of Sephiroth's pale brows shot up near his hairline.

"You're joking." That had to be what this was: the invitation, this claim - just a joke or a trick. "You're telling me that Angeal would offer his approval of this?"

Angeal was the most giving of the three and certainly overlooked both his and Genesis' quirks quite often. Still to allow his lover to be intimate with another?

>> What, did the chocobo-cactaur finally kick the bucket?

[The man's next text makes him pause, an amused smile coming to his face. He isn't quite sure what the other is laying out for him, but well, how could he be anything other than intrigued?]

>>Oh and just what did you have in mind Sephiroth, or do I have to make it home first to find out?

"I'm not," the tentative line Genesis' lips had pressed into gently curve into a warm smile. Good. Things were falling into place. But to get Sephiroth's trust ultimately, Genesis would have to try for what could be such a taboo for many relationships.

An open one.

Although he didn't consider it before, now the idea was making its rounds in his head: Angeal overhearing the way he coupled with Sephiroth, turning him into a voyeur for the one thing he had always wanted. Genesis loved being watched. He loved being the center of attention. And the thought of being heard, being instructed, and being with another made his heart race. Now he wished he could have truly talked it over with Angeal before he made his move.

But who knows, it could be a pleasant surprise. Genesis could play with his words and help him imagine his place in this tryst.

"I could call him if you want me to."

Meet me in the lab if you care to find out.

[ Of course it's after hours, but there is little that Sephiroth doesn't have access to. Not to mention the Turks owe him a favor or three. ]

There's a moment where Sephiroth was truly stunned. To his credit, it did not show save the silence that met Genesis' statement. Of course that could mean any number things or nothing at all. Yet oh did his mind spin in an effort to make this make sense.

And to try and quiet the thread of desire.

"Fine, call him." Mostly he wanted to call what he felt had to be Genesis' bluff. He really couldn't imagine Angeal agreeing to any of this. But that wasn't the only reason for it.

>> I'll be there.

[How could he pass that up, of course? The minutes tick by and he counts them down, until Angeal is finally accessing the labs, adjusting to the darkness easily as glowing blue eyes took in the surroundings as he lets himself inside.]

Sephiroth?

[ He doesn't bother sending another message; Angeal's word is more than good enough. Which is why he's already there - only the security lights are on making the Mako green emanating from some of the bath tanks frankly eery. Sephiroth studies one with his head tilted to the side. There's no one in it now, but that doesn't matter when he turns upon Angeal entering.

A grin barely lifts his mouth and he tips his head in greeting. Oh there's a bit of rigidness about his shoulders; there's no where he dislikes quite like this place. ]

That curious?

You say that like I would of told you no, my friend.

[He smiles, and though the light of the mako tanks is eerie at this time of night, he still moves closer to the man who is bathed in it, giving a greenish tint to pale skin and a shine to the leather he wore.]

[ While a SOLDIER could never entirely dismiss the presence of a Mako tank, his attention pivots soundly to Angeal and how just having the other man near settles him. He turns completely to Angeal and gives the man a contemplative look. ]

No one sane likes it here. [ He points out with an almost-laugh. ] And after enduring a long rant about degenerate military practices ruining his best work, I like it even less.

Without any more words spoken, Genesis smiled and flipped open his PHS, rang Angeal up and put the device on speakerphone so Sephiroth could hear the other one loud and clear.

"Hello, partner. How has the mission been?"

"Hey, Gen. Tiring, but no more than usual. Everything alright back home?"

The small talk was familiar. Something they often do when they were apart.

"That's good. I am fine. And so is Sephiroth. In fact, he's with me right now."

A deep laugh from the phone cut through the tension in the air. "Oh is he? I hope you aren't badgering him too much."

Genesis was thankful for the laugh. Without it, he probably wouldn't be able to deliver his next lines to the right effect. With a lighthearted tone to match the earlier laugh, he responded: "I've wanted to ask you... would it be all right with you if I slept with him tonight?"

As much as Genesis would like to invite his lover to listen in to their coupling and make him a voyeur, perhaps it would be best to take things one at a time. Perhaps let his imagination let loose while he experiences the real thing.

Almost as if everything was planned, Angeal's response was just as easy: "Is that all you're calling me for these days?" At that, Genesis couldn't help but laugh just a little.

"You know me, Angeal."

"You and your crush! Fine I'll just sit out here for a few days then while you're sweet on the General. Don't forget about me, though."

"No, I'd never. I'll talk to you again soon. Sleep well." The honey in Genesis' voice could so easily convey love without needing to say it. And with that said, he shut off the phone and put it away on the kitchenette counter.

"Satisfied, sir?"
