I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife


Tempting the Priest


It’s a little more than just forbidden love—maybe your motives aren’t love at all—or corrupting an innocent, because in this meme it’s the innocent doing the tempting. You’ve set your sights on a someone untouchable, someone whose faith, vows, or situation have forbidden them from straying toward the desires of the flesh, but you’re determined to see to it that they stray. Right into your arms. Or perhaps you are the priest, or knight, or king, and now you’re facing irresistible, relentless temptation from the most exquisite source.


Irresistible
1. White as Snow - You’re the angel, the ingenue, the Lolita, seemingly pristine and pure. Perhaps you’re even a virgin. But your heart is not so pure, and you have some ideas about just how you’d like to be debauched. You’ve set your sights on your beloved, and sooner or later you’ll wear down their resolve.
2. Red as Blood - Let’s not kid anyone, you’re no virgin. You’re the Jezebel, the witch, the whore, you’re the one that all the texts warn about. You’re beautiful and dripping with sin, and you revel in it. Men and women fall at your feet, compelled by adoration and lust. But you’ve lost all interest in all but one: the one who has vowed to resist you.
3. Black as Night - You’re not doing this out of such pure motives. You can’t claim this is out of love. Perhaps not even out of lust. This is about bitterness and revenge. You want to see this person—or their order—depraved and debauched, and you have just the plan to do it. Just be careful, you might fall in love with your target. Or you might not: hatesex can be such fun.

Untouchable
1. Sworn to the Cloth - You’re a priest or a nun, vowed to chastity. Married to god. Divorced forever from the pleasures of the flesh. It hasn’t ever been a problem, before now. But they’re everything that tempts you most, and your certainty is fracturing with every smile, every flirtation. Eternal damnation might be worth a night of pleasure.
2. Sworn to the Cause - No love for you but Patria. You’re married to your work, your country, your order. Whether you’re a knight, a politician, or a prophet, you have no time for love, and you’ve never been tempted by mere physical pleasure. Until you encounter the one person who can compare, who tempts you away from your noble aims and your vows of abstinence. The revolution can wait another day, for them.
3. Sworn to the Crown - Born into royalty or nobility, you always knew that your duty would come before love. Perhaps you entered a loveless marriage, or perhaps you were forbidden from marrying at all. It never bothered you before. Your country needed you, and your family taught you to put duty above all. You’re married to the throne, and your bed is cold. But now someone has lit a fire in your heart, even though you may have to risk everything to have them.

So she's married to the crown and him to his cause?

[personal profile] tigress_of_kiev 2017-07-10 02:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Traveling outside the Empire was such a hassle. Unlike most, she had a hard time traveling in daylight, but she had made it to her destination just fine.

But that didn't mean that her troubles were over. While staying at the Vatican she was watched over like a hawk. No one trusted her because of what she was. There were whispers of her being here to assassinate someone, but that couldn't be farther from the truth.

She had willingly given up her weapon upon arrival and provided the proper documents for travel. She had been given an order by her Empress to be the voice of the Empire in peace talks.

"It is good seeing you again, Able." She said as she sat under the shade of a tree, careful of the light.

[ Can go either way, if tending a bit more towards being the untouchable— probably a tired, disillusioned priest who fulfills his role out of obligation but not out of real feeling, can be a young one in training or an older one, who's still staunchly clinging to either the cloth or the cause out of stubbornness or pride or any other such things. If the irresistible, then either black or white.]

It was a rare thing anymore that Cassidy and Jesse got to spend any one-on-one time together. He didn't particularly mind, seeing as he was fond of Tulip and all, but it was nice to not have to pretend to be more polite. Jesse had already seen him at his worst, so there was little for him to hide.

Cassidy takes a long drink from the bottle of bottom-shelf whiskey and sets it down, passing it over to Jesse. "So. You're a very down-to-earth, reasonable sort of preacher," Cassidy begins. He drops his feet up onto the table separating them and he reaches into his too-small jacket to fish something out. "Very modern, progressive near as I can tell. The big things. Your opinion, especially with your background and all that. Big questions, that is. Homosexuals, witches, adulterers. How's that figure into your worldview there, Padre?" Just some light conversation while Cassidy lights up his blunt.

[He's probably Untouchable in general, but if we tweak Red as Blood to a more literal interpretation, his appeal is more for the violent-minded. He fights like a mad dog from hell. He revels in the fight, but is constantly mindful of this body's limited endurance.

[If he's a man of the cloth, his belief is based on the fact that he literally died once and came back in the body he appears to be in now. But beyond that, he has no particular faith as far as as canon events are concerned. He also has no negative opinions towards sex - but he IS a virgin and VERY sensitive.]

[Sworn to the cause, or more like, has lost too many people, and considers Getting Involved with people to be a bad idea. Especially because if he does have some form of sex, for it to have much enjoyment for him it will probably include telepathy. Related to that: pure physical lust is unlikely to get the job done in this case. I'm very open to exploring Time Lords Are Weird, as opposed to 'might as well have been human' sex.]

[Info over here, including nsfw information. She's aged up, although if that's older teen or adult is something you'll have to let me know a preference on. Can be really anything, so if there's a scenario you're interested in, hit me up. For "Irresistible", she's probably "White As Snow". For "Untouchable", I'm always down for "Sworn to the Cloth".]
