PET PERSON SHIPPING MEME

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.

She laughed softly and gave his ears a good scratch. "I figured that was a big plus."

Not that she could blame him. Some pet people were forced to wear rags and behave like animals. Alex never wanted Loki to be treated that way. He deserved to be happiness and fair treatment.

"You can be such a sweetheart," she said, stroking his ears and hair more when he rubbed against her hand. "Do you want to watch a movie while we eat, or would you rather just cuddle like this?"

"Just don't let your friends know about this." Not that he hated Alex's friends, he just didn't know them that well and so just ignored them when they came round.

"If we put a movie on," he said in an annoyed tone, though he did not care what they did.. "You'll have to move and I've just got really comfortable."

"Don't worry. My friends don't need to know anything about you, except that you're my precious cat."

And they didn't need to watch a movie either. She was happy just the way they were, with Loki snuggled up close to her. She might even be willing to feed him, but just a little.

"It's a good thing I left the door unlocked and my purse is still on the coffee table then. The delivery guy can just come in, and we won't have to move."

"Your handsomely precious cat who has a very trusting owner. How do you know they'll take the right amount or even leave your purse where you left it." Humans really were strange creatures and his owner had to be the strangest out of the lot of them.

Though he pointed that out and sounded worried for her, the delivery person could even be a serial killer for all Alex knew, her closeness, stroking and calming scent was affecting him in a way that he'd usually be able to hide by slinking off to his room. The hand scratching his ears and the one running up and down his tail prevented him to do that as Loki's body went a head and betrayed him, rolling his hips towards the hand on his tail to rub his slow growing erection.

"Because you're going to hand me the purse and I'm going to give the right amount," she replied, ruffling his hair playfully.

Alex also had a 9mm with a silencer attached hidden in the house. She had never told Loki about it, as she didn't want him to think she was stranger than he already did.

When she felt him pressing himself against her hand, she grinned and moved his tail over his building arousal and began to rub both at the same time, massaging her fingers gently against him.

"Are you sure you're in the mood to eat right now?"

The two of them had never been intimate despite sleeping together some nights, but Alex wasn't opposed to it. In fact, she welcomed it.

"Oh is that so and why would I move from such a comfortable position?" he asked stretching out across the couch a little more, or he did until Alex's hand began stroking something else along with his tail.

"Yep, in the mood only for pizza." Loki stated as he very quickly sat up, moving to the other side of the couch.

Loki's sudden retreat surprised Alex enough to have her sitting there blinking stupidly for a moment. Then she looked away.

"Ah, sorry...," she said softly, feeling like an idiot. Alex hoped she hadn't ruined the whole evening.

"No, I just..." he stuttered out bashfully, also feeling like an idiot. "You've never... y'know." For once Loki was lost for words as he turned back to look at her.

Alex turned to meet his gaze.

"I know... but I'd like us to be more than just friends."

She felt silly saying it. This could make their relationship incredibly awkward if Loki wasn't interested. He might even want to leave and look for another home.

By the sounds of it Loki had nothing to loose as he turned and lent in towards Alex, bravely pressing their lips together.

She reached up and stroked his cheek as she began to move her lips against his. Alex hummed in contentment, happy that Loki was at least open to the idea.

Loki purred in response to her humming, nuzzling into that hand as he moved to get a little closer to Alex.

She smiled into their kiss, moving her hand from his cheek to the base of his of his ear, giving it a good scratch. She wrapped her arm around him and traced small circles between his shoulder blades with her middle and index fingers.

Unsure of what he's actually supposed to be doing, Loki allows instinct to take over instead as he begins to purr louder and deepen their kiss. His tail snakes up to brush over the back of the hand that's rubbing his back, while one of his own hands starts to rub up and down Alex's thigh.

Alex massaged his tongue with hers, humming in appreciation again. She gave his tail small strokes while the hand scratching his ears slid around to his chest. As she began to run her hand up and down his lithe body, she realized that he was well muscled too.
