the bodyguard shipping 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.

[ The most reluctantly guarded.

I love assumed CR, crossovers (♥ ♥ ♥), convoluted scenarios, combustive attraction, bickering, first time, culture differences, ingenue/gruff, worldly man, inhuman characters, cute nerds nerding out together, Beauty and the Beast dynamics because duh, arranged marriage AU, fairy tale/fantasy settings, magic, passionate reunions, redoing first times that didn't go so well. sneaky trysts, risk of discovery, emotions spilling out in private, and much, much more.

Ridiculously into Tolkienverse (dwarves yes pls), ASOIAF/GOT, HP (my kingdom for a Newt Scamander or Lupin), and MCU right now and equally into AUing Belle to fit in any of them, but check out my slightly embarrassing dream list of shit I'd like to play. ]

[ Even after all the time they've spent together, Taemin feels like he shouldn't be here. Maybe it's the way some of Siwoon's other guards look at him, as if he doesn't have any right to be protecting a person so much taller and broader at the shoulder than him, or maybe it's the fact he feels like he's slipping a little in his duties. Just last week, there had been an altercation at one of the regular so-called "meetings" Siwoon often frequented to make appearances and speak with potential partners or buyers -- realistically, Taemin has no idea what they discuss, and he prefers not to know -- in which Siwoon had been grazed by a stray bullet saving him. It's annoying, and he's been mad about it ever since, purposely ghosting him so he could refocus his attention on doing his job rather than getting distracted by a pretty face. Knowing Siwoon, it probably pisses him off, but he has people other than him to safeguard his interests.

And when he finally decides to check-in, he's confident the entire floor of the hotel is locked down so tight that nothing would get through to disturb them. All the finery of the suite makes him feel out of place, but Taemin ignores it as he wanders into the sitting area and glances around. Naturally, his eyes stray to Siwoon, his posture and his general silhouette before he forces himself to stare at his feet. He already feels guilty enough about the injury; he certainly doesn't need anything else to add to it. His expression shifts just slightly, and he frowns. ]


Everything's secure. No one's going to bother you tonight. [ He doesn't address him by his full name, doesn't call him sir. Taemin hardly cares for formalities, but the truth is, he wants to ask how his arm is, if he's okay. Rather than push the subject, he just keeps his head down and waits to be dismissed. ]
