PET PERSON SHIPPING MEME

>> premise

Hello, and welcome to The Care and Keeping of Your Pet! As you surely know, a pet is a big responsibility, and we're so glad you've decided to be a concientious master. A safe pet is a happy pet, and this handbook is certain to keep your precious lifelong friend as content as can be. The history of the animal person is a long and difficult one, with their origins not being known even to this day. However, scientists believe that despite our common appearance - most animal people have humanoid forms except for the ears, tails, and sometimes teeth - we share no common ancestry, even if the ascent of this species corresponds with that of the homo sapien. We gained dominance over each breed thousands of years ago, beginning with the dog type, who have long been considered "man's best friend." Most breeds these days are docile and perfect for owners of any speed. Of course, it is our duty as the superior species to take care of these animal creatures, and this is inherent in their genetic makeup. Everyone knows that an animal person, when matched with their correct human master, is loyal for life - a true "soulmate," if you will. Far be it for us to turn this away! Ever since the Great Domestication, these intelligent and loving animals have served us as friends, workmates, guardians, servants, and sexual companions and will for years to come. Despite recent hubbub from so-called "Pet People's Rights Activists," this way of life is wholesome and good. Scientific research shows that the natural desire of the pet person is to be owned and cared for by a human. So, it's your first pet. What do you need to know? As previously stated, pet people come in as many breeds as you can possibly think of. By far and away the most popular are the dog and cat types, but exotic birds and lizards have been gaining popularity among trendsetters from L.A. to Tokyo! All pet types are best suited for certain jobs, and when hunting for one, it is best to search for a type that suits your needs best. However, a "True Match" - when a pet person bonds with you and only you for the rest of their natural lives - comes naturally, and sometimes takes time before you can find the pet you will be able to give a forever home to. According to all current research, pet people are completely sentient and like us in many ways. However, it is important to remember that they have many animalistic and feral characteristics. Do not be foolish and think that your pet is a person, despite the facts that many are clothed and may be allowed to read, write, and have "hobbies." Some traditional pet owners may eschew these frivolities, and that is within their right. Pet people age more quickly than humans, at least physically, and many types have long lifespans. It is not uncommon for pets to be passed through the family. When getting your child their first pet, it's important to keep in mind that just because the pup is tiny now, a grown pet can be jumpy around a small child. It is important to train a pet. Discipline will be necessary. This does not make you a bad owner. Failure to train early will result in a rebellious pet. Training is especially important if you want your pet to serve as a household servant. Remember, your pet will be extremely protective of you, especially if you are Truly Bonded. It is best to socialize them early. A socialized pet is a perfect family pet. These days, unowned and unbonded pet people are allowed to live as strays or "Frees" in certain designated areas. Some even hold "jobs." This is against their best interest, and owners who adopt these strays are to be rewarded. Still, the best place to get pets are from liscenced kennels or breeders. Some masters find it beneficial to participate in activities with their pets, such as shows and other competitions. Finally, much has been made about the sexual relationship between pet and master. This is a normal facet of the bond, and humans are sure to find pet people sexually alluring. But beyond that, it is only responsible and prudent for owners to care for their pet's needs. It is a well-known fact that the libidos of pet people are remarkably strong, and when they go into heat, it is usually more convenient for a master to relieve them. There is no risk of pregnancy. All rumors of hybrids are urban legends. Despite this, masters must remember to not view their pets as romantic partners. Humans should stay with humans. With that said, thank you and welcome to your first day as a pet's master!

>> how to play

Needless to say, The Care and Keeping of Your Pet is a bit biased and full of propaganda, but it gives a good idea of the world your character is now AU's into. They are either a pet person or a human master, and what that means for them varies. So are they a devoted pet or a rebellious animal person looking to buck the system? A generous master or a cruel sexual sadist? Just a normal pet owner? Most likely they're something in between, but when you're raised in this world, it's difficult to see anything different on the horizon. Rules Comment with your character and say whether they'd be a master or a pet. Ideally, they could be played as both. Mention what kind of each they'd be and what they'd be like, (ie: "Xx-chan is a bunny girl who is happy to please her master" or "Asterothia is a cat boy who is aloof but loyal to his true master"). For pets, be sure to include features ("wolf ears, tail, teeth). REMEMBER, pet does not automatically equal submissive and master automatically equal dominant. This is not a BDSM setting though BDSM can be included. How far you want to go with the actual "pet" aspect is up to you, as well. Your pet could just be your slightly-furry roommate or soulmate! Comment to others. Play out the scene.

>> prompts

This by now means an all-inclusive list, but it should get you going in the right direction. First Time Pet/Owner: Usually, pets are gotten at a young age; you're an old dog. Can you learn new tricks? True Bond: What all masters and pets yearn for...the pet's loyalty and adoration for life. Love: It's expected for masters to love their pets, but to love them? Romance is strictly forbidden. Old "Couple": Master and pet have grown together and know each other. You know, know each other. Loss of Master: The pet has lost their master, perhaps even their True Bond. Is it possible to move on? Young Master/Older Pet: Pets age quicker than masters, so it's possible to end up with a bit of an "age" difference. Family Pet: This pet's been raised as part of the family. What happens when their feelings for a family member get more than platonic. For Your Protection: You don't want to be a master, but you have to take in a pet for their protection lest they be in danger from the general public. Stray: You're a stray or a "Free." Can you live like this with your biology screaming for you to make a match? Servant: You're more servant than pet. All Sex, All the Time: The only purpose for this pet is to service the master, and not in a way that means cleaning their house. Guard: You're a loyal bodyguard, a service pet. You'll do anything for your master. Anything. Pet Play: This is for those who prefer to keep their animals on leashes, have them eat from bowls, and keep away from clothing. Breaking In: Training is important with any pet. In Love with Another Master...or Pet: To lust after another's master is no better than treason, and to wish to be with another pet just cruel! Punishment: Bad dog, no nookie! Heat: All pets go into heat, and it's the responsibility of the owner to take care of this problem. After all, unchecked dry humping kills thousands every year. Breeding: Breeders know the best qualities in each type and mate the cream of the crop together to continue lines. It's a hobby for some, a calling for others. Pregnancy: So, about that whole "hybrid" thing. It maaaay be more true than you think, even if pet/human pregnancies are the stuff of salacious tabloids. Territorial: Hey, hey, other dog person! This is your apartment. Stay the fuck out! Kennel: Kennels are where unadopted pets are kept. They're generally agreed to be depressing places. Why not volunteer at one, keeping the pets healthy and happy with the kind of affection only humans can show? Rebelling Against the System: Damn the Man! Pet people are people, too! Just be careful not to get talk. You know what happens to bad pets. Instant Attraction: You ever just look at someone and know they're the one? That they're...your master? But what if you've been trying to fight it? Well, don't try! Dominant Pet: You might be the pet, but you call the shots, at least in the bedroom. Pet Show: Everyone wants to show off how perfect their animal is. Look at that ass! And you'll never believe their special skills... Therapeutic: Pets, especially those bred for their kindliness, are perfect therapy for those who've been through trauma and heartache. Jealousy: Who's that around your master? Oh, hell no. They better not be touching them! Petting: Pet people are absolutely gaga for being touched. Even the most steely ones turn to mush for rubs. Games: Playing with your pet and giving them exercise is a key to happiness. Of course, with a pet person, you might want to use other toys instead of a ball.

Todd the Wraith // Stargate Atlantis // OTA

[commandshumor]

[ooc: Master role only. Strict, but quietly affectionate, will treat any pet he gets be it from a shelter or from off the street quite well. Kinks and info are in the journal, no heat or pregnancy, and no domestic cats or dogs. PM me to discuss him as a pet if you want, or with any questions!]

hanamaru kunikida ( love live sunshine ) ota

[endpapers]

( pet, probably something mystical. would love to play a fox. very affectionate, innocent, but a loner and a bookworm. )

Mitsunari Ishida | Sengoku Basara | ota

[upadly_aniol]

[Most likely a pet, but can be a master, if any pet accidently follows him or something? He'd wonder what to do with it, but he could adapt. Slowly.]

Hanzo Shimada | Overwatch | OTA

[chickenleggy]

[Either role, but if he's a pet, he's a dragon are you kidding. As a master, he's a sometimes distant but rather indulgent and affectionate one. The pet won't want for anything.]

akiko yosano / bungou stray dogs / ota

[aesculapius]

( master........ would probably be in the habit of experimenting on said pet a little, but will at least make it up by shopping a whole bunch and doting on her pet with nice little trinkets. alternatively, a cat. the one that refuses to be touched unless she decides it's time to. comes and goes as she pleases, truly a cat. )

[aircrafter]

[[How would you like a pet dog? Pretty dutiful, protective, trained easily but also kind of aloof and blunt?]]

[aesculapius]

( im down if you are!! any scenario you're interested in? )

[aircrafter]

[[Probably something akin to guard, breaking in, and pet play (though with more (sexy) clothing than less). Kaga doing what her master says out of a sense of duty but feeling her out. I'm flexible with others though!]]

[aesculapius]

( those are absolutely fine with me! just tell me how you want her broken in and Training Can Ensue. )

[aircrafter]

[[Up until now, probably having Kaga take her guard duty a little too seriously, so her mistress puts her on a schedule of sorts to make her easier to manage. Want to start or should I?]]

[aesculapius]

( if you dont mind starting that would be rad )

[aircrafter]

Kaga considered herself a refined creature.

As far back as she could remember, she was largely trained to protect. She may not have been some perfect pet person ideal, but that didn't really matter to her. Her rather curvy frame was usually hidden behind a plain kimono top and baggy pants, and her muscles were toned to be able to strike down any threats. Her dark, pointed ears were tuned to heed the words of her mistress and be on alert for threats.

Of course, that became a two word mantra: constant vigilance! So long as there were suspicious people, she needed to be ready to protect her owner at all costs.

She might have nearly overdone it too, when a suspicious person had grown a little too friendly with her owner, in a way that seemed to not sit right with her. She had managed to pin him down on the ground in a matter of a few seconds. It seemed that it irritated her owner though, and she was asked to relent.

So this following morning, Kaga was waiting obediently at her owner's desk, a bit confused on what she wanted this time. She might have been overzealous just a bit, but surely that was a mistake she wouldn't repeat again? What was she waiting for?

Adam | Only Lovers Left Alive | M/F

[darksongs]

Pet: A vampire bat with large, dark brown pointed ears and large, black wings on his back. He can't fly, but he can glide. Adam is a bit moody, and he likes his personal space, but touch is also very important to him. He would be happiest with an affectionate owner who doesn't mind indulging him in sex and cuddling when he needs it. Just be prepared for him to hoard books, musical instruments and equipment, as well as records, tapes, CDs, etc.. He is a musician. He does also live on blood.

[justlikejezebel]

[ would you mind playing with an OC? Dev's a madam, can fit into modern or fantasy setting, runs an upper-class escort service/aristocratic brothel, and isn't squicked out by much. Affectionate by nature but tough as nails when necessary. She also enjoys literature and music, so Adam might feel right at home. :) ]

[darksongs]

[I do prefer modern settings with Adam, but I don't mind OCs at all! Would you mind setting the scene? She may have first found Adam injured, since I can't imagine the general population being very comfortable with bats.]

Richter Lawrence Alcross | OC | M/F

[for_redemption]

[As a pet he is a fiercely loyal german sherpard or wolfdog. He loves playing and rarely lazes around, most though he's asserting his dominance by fighting and beating other dogs in fights.

As a master, he is very affectionate and watches out for the needs of his pet. He won't allow the pet to grow lazy so he takes them out for activities and such.]

Nariko Lunae | Original | m/f

[gunslingerqueen]

[As a pet, she'd make for a very loving panther, destructive if left alone, and protective of a good master.

As a master, she'll spoil her pet in whatever manner fits best, whether it be giving personal space or endless gifts.]

Blake Belladonna ♦ RWBY ♦ F/M - OTA Castmates

[deadly_belladonna]

[Canonly, she has cat ears so she makes for a good pet. Willing to reverse roles though if you have something in mind!]

leo tsukinaga | ensemble stars | ota

[cyni]

( Master: Leo isn't too good with this because he'll forget his pet all the time? Maybe if you're a little weird he'll remember to feed them but other than that, he does his best! He'll leave sticky notes around to remember to do things for his animal. He's an idol, he has so much going on?

Pet: He's the pet cat that disappears for six years or every week and then reappears back on your doorstep after saying he's been catnapped by aliens. He's a rather active cat and places ownership on what's his, so he wouldn't like sharing at all? Leo shedding his fur on owner, no one else. )

Alcuin no Delaunay ( Kushiel's Dart ) M/M

[alcuin_delaunay]

[Pet role preferred. Sweet, submissive fox boy with skills as a scholar and linguist.]

Peter Parker | Amazing Spiderman | OTA

[spideyguy]

[Playful kitten or very confused owner.]

[prettyingreen]

Jennifer was very involved in the pet-people's rights movement. She didn't think of herself as an owner, but if she could give someone like Peter a chance at a better life, she was all for it. She'd never had much luck with dating, so having a companion around was actually pretty nice for her as well--and Peter was so full of energy that life was never boring. As long as she didn't come home to find the apartment littered with a cat's cradle web of toilet paper, it was all good.

[spideyguy]

Peter had been raised by breeders, a kindly old couple. Parker Pets, dealing with an assortment of cats, dogs, and even the occasional rabbit. He was the runt of his litter, babied to health by May Parker, one of the owners. He was one of the last adopted, rescued by Jennifer, really, when the next litter was on its way and he still hadn't found a home.

[prettyingreen]

The Parkers were good people, but they certainly had their hands full. Jennifer wasn't sure what she would do with such a houseful, but she felt like she was getting the hang of things with Peter. Knowing he was waiting for her at home gave her something to look forward to, and she couldn't help but smile as she let herself in.

"Peter? I'm home! And I brought dinner..."

[spideyguy]

Peter meowed quietly from his place by the window, stretching and blinking over at Jennifer. He'd been napping, as he was prone to do, still adjusting to the space. He uncurled his tail, letting it swish across the pillows. His head tilted when he smelled the food Jennifer had brought and that finally prompted him to get up, eyeing her curiously.

[prettyingreen]

Jennifer sat down beside the coffee table, and opened up the bag from the fish-and-chips shop she had stopped at on her way home. She put a portion in front of herself, and slid the rest toward Peter. He could join her or not, as he liked. She wouldn't be upset either way. She just hoped he was starting to get comfortable in his new home.

"Did you have a good day?"

[spideyguy]

The stronger waft of fish hit him and Peter yawned, padding over to the coffee table. His ears twitched, and he sat down slowly beside Jennifer, tilting his head to watch her take a portion of the food. He was getting comfortable, but was still a little wary, in general.

"...yes." Peter cleared his throat a little; he hadn't been talking much, and he certainly hadn't been talking when he was alone throughout the day. "I...watched through the window."

[prettyingreen]

"Good." Jennifer glanced over and smiled at him as she began to eat. She could see that he was still a little shy, but she wanted to make an effort to interact with him. She didn't want to smother him with affection and attention if he wasn't ready for it, but neither did she want him to feel neglected. "Did you see anything interesting?"

tyki mikk | d. gray-man | ota

[teasing]

[ lazy cat or indulgent owner. expect all the head scritches. ]

[balking]

[ i'm planning to write a starter! but i wanted to pop in and ask if tyki would be the type to follow someone home and make himself at home without being invited to stay. ]

[teasing]

[ sorry for the delay, was at work!

and i think that yeah, he probably would be, if there was something particularly delicious or indulgent at home \o/ ]

[balking]

[ that's no problem! and namie's an excellent cook, so that works out. just shoot me a pm if you'd like anything in this changed! ]


[ Namie's never been keen on the thought of owning a pet. She leads a busy enough life that the thought of adopting and caring for another being seems like more of a hassle than anything else, despite what she hears from pet owners about how happy and warm their pets supposedly make their homes. Living alone has never bothered her enough to want to keep a pet to welcome her home in the evenings.

So she blames the woman downstairs for her situation. The woman who already owns a couple of pets and still insists on feeding any strays who wander near their building. Word spreads easily enough and there are anywhere between ten to fifteen cats hanging around outside thanks to her irritatingly generous nature.

For the most part, the strays seem to stay out of the way of the tenants who haven't offered them food. Tyki is the exception.

Namie passes him late one evening after making beef stew at work, the smell still clinging to her clothes on her way home. It's enough that she recalls Tyki following her inside and into the elevator, off on her floor and right into her apartment before she could even react. And despite threats, he's stuck around since.

It's been two months and Namie still doesn't really see the appeal to coming home to a pet.

It's fairly late when she finally arrives home, toeing her shoes off in the entranceway of her apartment before she heads toward the living room to look for Tyki. ]

You're still here.

[teasing]

[ he's been on the streets long enough to make a comfortable life for himself, as far as comfortable lives for strays were concerned. he'd always thought he wasn't doing too bad off, all things considered; he had a dry place to sleep, plenty of houses to hang out at for food, and the occasional kind stranger who would offer him a wayward pat and a scratch. what more could a pet ask for?

at least, that's what he had thought. but one fateful day he'd followed his nose to something that smelled utterly, divinely delicious - and it wasn't long before he'd found himself lounging around the woman's apartment on a daily basis, indulging in whatever scraps she'd stored in the refrigerator that he could get his hands on. it certainly topped fighting other stray pets every time he wanted to get a meal. like his own personal chef de cuisine.

he's just polishing off the last remnants of what was supposed to have been tonight's dinner. or perhaps it was leftovers. he honestly couldn't tell anymore, nor did he care. it was in his belly now. ]

Hoh? Why wouldn't I be?

[balking]

[ she gives him a long stare at the answer she gets then glances over the now-empty containers in front of him, no longer surprised by the disappearance of the leftovers from the night before. nothing is at risk of going bad when it doesn't last more than a day in the fridge. it could very well be the lone bright spot in her unwilling adoption of the stray who's made himself at home with her. ]

If you're going to stay- [ which is painfully obvious, despite her cold shoulder toward him ] -you're going to be more useful than this.

[ and with that, namie leans over the couch and gives his arm a tug as she nods toward the empty containers he's cleaned out. ]

Pick them up and follow me.

[his_cat]

[Question! In his canon he can only meow, are you okay with that or should he talk?]

Vincent Law/Ergo Proxy // Ergo Proxy // OTA

[theworldunwinds]

[ooc: Either can be a pet but Vincent can be a submissive master. Pet-wise, Vince will be a stag, Ergo a dragon. You can pick one or the other or both. M/M only for Vincent, PM me with any questions!]
