the incest open post
incest; noun — sexual intercourse between closely related persons. It's no secret that in most modern societies, incest is frowned upon these days. "Keeping it in the family" is no longer a necessity, as people can travel freely and go many places to meet potential mates. Of course, that's not always the case. In some cultures, incest is allowed as long as it's not too close of a relationship; Japan, for instance, permits first cousins to be married, as do many. In addition, incest was often practiced in the past, both for convenience. Still, today, it's mostly taboo, though some continue to partake because of circumstance or other factors.
And, as you all know, the Hotel loves breaking a good taboo AND it has quite a lot of...factors.
It's providing them today, everything from the setting to the relatives. But you don't have a living relative, or the person you're stuck with isn't related to you! No problem. Aren't they really related to you? The Hotel will make you believe that, at any rate. There's lots of varieties, too, so it's something the whole family can get in on.
- Siblings
- Parent/child
- Cousins
- Aunts or uncles/nieces or nephews
- Adopted/Step
Where is all this taking place? Not in the Hotel, one would hope. It's your lucky day! You'll have a lot of options to "choose" from.
- Modern suburbia
- Medieval times
- Fantasy kingdom
- 1700s-1800s
- Victorian era
- The future
- And much more!
With all that in your very own family tree, who needs to climb up another one? Maybe it's an unrequited, one-sided love or a mutual attraction. While you may be hesitant or regretful at first (they don't call it the forbidden fruit for nothing), there's something that will turn the tables towards a little more than familial.
