[buckingham]

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.

[dogamidstmen]

[ The guard! Modern au also A-okay by me ]

Re: Gabriel Starling | OC | OTA

[thirdoptionwizard]

((So upon reading the bio, I have an idea that kind of works with both their canons, just earlier on. Like when Gabriel was in exile, he meets a battered Taako whose trying to protect a relic that basically saves the world. If Gabriel wants to deal with a paranoid, arrogant, jackass of an elf whose a glass cannon at any rate.))

Taako | The Adventure Zone

[thirdoptionwizard]

[Can be either though he will be a pain in the ass no matter what]

[scoutsniper]

((am I wrong to want to see her trying to guard Frank?))

empress jessamine kaldwin / dishonored

[oftheisles]

[ guarded, of course. lets see who can keep her alive this time... ]

Steve Rogers/ MCU

[supershouldery]

[Guard. Open to m/m or m/f but 21+. AU situations are great. PM as needed.]

Re: Steve Rogers/ MCU

[scalesandsecrets]

[Thinking that Mystique in disguise might be the person Steve's been assigned to protect?]

Lady Loki | MCU | OTA

[frost_sorceress]

[Guarded as a princess of Asgard, even though she can take care of herself.]

Mick Rory - Legends of Tomorrow/The Flash - ota

[bringstheheat]

[The most unlikely of guards.]

Michael Corvin | Underworld | M/M

[lycanhybrid]

[Either role]

Scarecrow | Batman Arkham Knight

[doctor_terror]

[More likely the one being guarded]

The Dragonborn | Skyrim | M/M

[fireandhoney]

[Either role]

[ either! ]

whiskey | kingsman: the golden circle

[rode]

[ def the one doing the bodyguarding. ]

Balthier / FFXII / OTA

[bedecked]

[Could be either. If he's guarded, he'll be younger. As a guard, he'll be older and likely with a compelling reason. Definitely open to AUs.]

[royaldifficulties]

[ It's not that Balthier and Fran cannot take care of themselves. They most certainly can, and possibly in ways that Basch, with his rather... set training and life might not be able to think of his way to help.

But.

Sometimes, just sometimes, even Balthier takes on more than he can actually chew. And while things are complicated, Larsa is very much fond of him and does consider him a citizen, thereby being willing to extend protection in times of crisis. Sending one (1) mostly pseudo judge out to an assignment - and letting Basch take off that full armor and be himself, at least for a little while. ]

The Strahl is as wonderful as she ever was.

[ Softly, and with a smile. Balthier's ship really is something, and coming on board seems like a good time to show his appreciation. Or at least to start a conversation.

It has been a while. Which doesn't seem to have changed things at all, for him, but he would rather not presume. ]

Jamal Lyon | Empire | m/m

[heavythecrown]
