Bodyguard

[ladys_night]

the bodyguard meme 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.

Bucky Barnes | Captain America

[freightcars]

[ AUs welcome. Willing to play either side. ]

eleanor hesnstridge | the royals

[ she's a princess so definitely the guarded. ]

Cassie Cage | Mortal Kombat X | OTA

Lady Winter Celchu | Star Wars

[winter_celchu]

[Winter was Princess Leia's official bodyguard and body-double as well as being a Lady of the Alderaanian royal court before becoming an extremely skilled spy and hacker for the Rebel Alliance, so she could play either role.]

Raleigh Becket | Pacific Rim

[unbreachable]

[ I'm down for either! ]

Stiles Stilinski | Teen Wolf | ota

[wolftamer_stilinski]

((ooc: either~))

[causesearcher]

(Stiles okay to be guarded?)

Morrigan | Dragon Age

[courtintrigue]

(Either role. If there's a reason for her to consider your life important she'll protect the fuck out of you. Or she can be reluctantly guarded due to her position at court. AUs fine but no Wardens on this one, please, unless Inquisition-era.)

Jason Todd / Red Hood | DC Comics

[batmansphoenix]

[Probably the bodyguard, but can play up the son of Wayne's thing as well.]

[imperfectsoldier]

Steve in no way wanted or needed a goddamned body guard and he wasn't happy about being assigned one. He had managed to get through USO tours, a world war, and an alien invasion without one. Why he needed one now was beyond him.

The phrase 'it's just for show' didn't help him much.

He'd been fighting and arguing and butting heads about it for ages. Fury wasn't backing down. Steve gave in. It was a month, maybe two on the outside. Fine. He could cope. He could maybe even not take it out on the guy they'd wrangled into playing Body Guard to Captain America.

He took some deep breaths, and turned when the guy walked into the boardroom he was waiting in. "Hi, Jason. I'm Steve." He stepped forward and offered his hand like a civilized human being and kept reminding himself that this was not Todd's fault.

They'd just have to make it work.

Hermione Granger | Harry Potter | m/f

[mudblood_andproud]

[One very capable witch available to guard]

Samus Aran | Metroid & Smash Bros | OTA

[jetheels]

[ Definitely the bodyguard.

F/F or M/F are fine for anything relating to shipping. ]

Alisha Diphda | Tales of Zestiria | OTA

[ex_deeds185]

( She's a princess and a knight so either role works well. I have a slight preference for her being the bodyguard, though. )

Rey || Star Wars: The Force Awakens

[talentedscavenger]

[ooc: Up for either role.]

Sofia Sinclair | OC | OTA

[esatru]

[Bodyguard or the protected role are both good for me! She's capable on her own, but being the protected one would be nice for a change. Can do a scenario where she's injured, or she's carrying an important object.]
