taking advantage

TAKING ADVANTAGE

It isn't always about the sex. All right, yes, often it is. But not always.

In this case it's about power over another individual. Using a fatal flaw, a weakness, or a momentary advantage to get them to do whatever it is that you want. Maybe you're going to blackmail them for all they're worth. Maybe you want them to spill every little secret they possess. Maybe you just need a servant to do your bidding. Maybe you want to do something utterly humiliating to them as revenge. Maybe you think you own them and you want to make it clear. Maybe you're just trying to prove that you're better, more superior than they are. Or maybe it is about the sex, who knows.

Your reasons are your own. But someone is going to be taken advantage of.

The standard rules apply:
- Leave a comment with your character name/canon, and state your prefs. Your character could be the aggressor or the victim (or potentially both, or just carrying out orders they were given, etc) and please specify if you're after smut, power games, crack, etc.
- Tag out and respect boundaries.
- RP!

OPTIONS (Note: several of these could be used in combination, so feel free to mix and match, or just use your own!)

1. Manipulation: They know exactly what buttons to press and when.

2. Blackmail: You have a dirty little secret, and unless you do what you're told, everyone is going to know it.

3. Trickery: Somehow you've been deceived and lied to in order to get you into this situation. Getting out again is a little harder.

4. Intoxication: It could be that you had one too many at the bar, or perhaps someone slipped a little something into your drink when you weren't looking.

5. External Forces: Someone else told you that you had to do it, whatever it is. Aliens, an authority figure, Jigsaw, whatever, you have no choice.

6. Mind Control: Magic, psychic powers, or hypnotism were involved. Whether or not you're aware of that fact is up to you.

7. Social Pressures: You're somewhere too public to kick up a fuss, or everyone else is doing it and they don't see why you shouldn't.

8. Trapped: You're locked up, tied up, or just in too close of a crowd to get away from them.

9. Pity: You feel sorry for them, for whatever reason, and agree to do what they want to make them feel better.

10. Betrayed: They were a friend, a relative, someone you thought you could trust. It seems that you can't.

Comments

Naoto Shirogane | Persona 4

[shiroganefortune]

[Het for smut, OTA for otherwise; I would like to focus on the psychological aspects more than anything else even if it does go the smut route. Naoto can be victim or aggressor, though if the latter it'll likely be under someone else's command (or possibly her Shadow)]

[tofu_idol]

[Het for smut, OTA for otherwise; I would like to focus on the psychological aspects more than anything else even if it does go the smut route. I'm tending towards victim for Rise but am open to having her the aggressor in the right circumstances.]

Erik Lehnsherr | xmen:firstclass | ota

[peace_was_never_an_option]

( tagging with a shaw would be ideal, but practically ota. )

Raven | Tekken | OTA

[notblackwesker]

Note: Raven is a usually-stoic man with a quick intellect and unbreakable sense of professionalism. He's an agent of an unknown organization and devout practitioner of ninjutsu. Like most Tekken/fighting game characters, he's very strong. More info in his profile!

Victim: If Raven is a victim, unless your character is strong enough to beat him physically, it would be very difficult for him to be taken advantage of without the aid of drugging him or restraining him or holding some kind of information over his head pertaining to a vital mission. Of course I'm down for any/all of this happening, just don't expect an average Joe/Jane to be able to gain the upper-hand without the aid of something else, as previously stated.

I'm fine with this going down the route of cracky funtimes or serious CR or maybe even smut- but note that Raven would not normally be a willing participant in such 'distracting' things and would not appreciate sexual advances. In other words don't expect anything romantic to come of it because he isn't the type to let himself get attached (and if anything being taken advantage of would only serve to annoy/frustrate/piss him off.)

Aggressor: If you decide for Raven to be the aggressor, then the smut option is virtually out of the window since he would not initiate such a thing of his own will, but I'm down for almost anything else, whether it be cracky or serious or whatever. Raven is so dedicated to completing missions that, if ordered by his higher-ups, he would certainly preform his duty of interrogating/kidnapping/restraining or pressuring your characters in whatever scenario you'd think up. I'm not very picky!

So if you're interested in this tough guy, pick whatever you prefer and we can get the ball rolling! \o/

Rei Hino | Sailor Moon

[guidedbyflame]

[open to just about anything, though i would prefer emphasis on mental/emotional domination than smut.

prefer victim for rei (especially something that affects her dignity, like 7 or 8 or 6 with her aware of it) but if you can come up with a scenario where she'd be aggressor i'm all for it.]

Misaka WORST | Toaru Majutsu no Index

[neurallycorrupt]

[aggressor/victim status is dependent on prompt, feel free to ask. Preference for non-sexy stuff. Power games would be awesome.]

Gilbert Nightray | Pandora Hearts

[ex_devoue66]

[OTA but if sexual stuff is going to be involved I'd like to work up to it rather than start out there.]

Elijah | The Vampire Diaries

[negotiates]

[Het if sex is involved, but fade-to-black only. Otherwise open to all. Elijah is likely to be the aggressor with certain canon exceptions: he's a powerful vampire and he can use mind control on both vampires and humans. He likes to intimidate and he enjoys power games.]

Ise Nanao | Bleach | OTA

[isefukutaichou]

[formication]

[ Men only for smut, ota for everything else. TJ's only likely to be the aggressor if you're threatening him or his family, or you've got him pinned; his father's the former president with a long history of sex scandals, his mother's Secretary of State, and he's a coke-addict with a long string of one-night stands and a lot of potential ammunition against him as far as blackmail goes. ]

Lottie Baskerville | PH | OTA

[grandesouer]

♥

Ky Kiske | Guilty Gear | OTA

[closedcircuit]

[m/m or m/f, Ky would be the victim, and I'd prefer smut or power games.]

Jean Louis Duroc | Silver Wolf (modern AU)

[population_ctrl]

[Generally OTA - unless you know me, however, please shoot me a PM before tagging so we can talk stuff over. <3]

[thethird]

[Mireille doesn't know he's here. To be honest, Florian isn't entirely sure -why- he's here either, except that it's for the best. As long as Mireille stays in his apartment and her husband sticks to the rules.

So he presses the buzzer and waits for an answer. An elaborate one, no doubt. The man being a politician through and through.]

[population_ctrl]

[It's a short, metallic buzz - nothing too distracting or annoying, something they've both appreciated since they moved in years back. For the quiet.

When he opens the door, his thoughts are clearly elsewhere. On -absence-, mostly. Not in general, either. Thus, it takes him at least a few seconds to even respond to Florian's presence on his doorstep.]

Oh. It's you.

2, because.

[centeroftheweb]

[He doesn't like this at all. Of all the people who could be contacting him, Jean Louis Duroc is not one he ever expected. Nor wanted. Because the possible reasons are all either very bad or make no sense.]

What do you want.

Mireille came by last night. She's at my place.

[No -Herr Duroc- or any other politer form of address. Not necessary in this context and his two lines of information probably covers everything that needs to be said. Jean Louis has seen her face as well, obviously. So, in all actuality, the first move wasn't Florian's, but the second is. And it'll be Jean Louis' turn next.]

2 - >]

[population_ctrl]

[That's a loaded question, isn't it. Because Jean Louis wants everything and getting it one piece at a time doesn't bother him in the least. Good for him, bad for Ray but who cares? So he smiles and holds out his hands.]

Your expertise, Monsieur. Like always.

[population_ctrl]

[Straight to the point. What an interesting deviation from the man's usual vagueness. There are no guesses needed here, of course. Mireille wouldn't bother with make-up, not when she's already chosen to leave.]

Thank you for telling me.

[He's missing the point on purpose. Gives the boy a chance to back away before it's too late.]

[centeroftheweb]

And why do you assume I will give it to you?

[population_ctrl]

[His smile doesn't waver.]

Switzerland. North of Zurich, to be precise. A long, thin stretch of mountain road and a somewhat shabby-looking establishment. Should I go on?

Reiza | Inazuma Eleven GO: Chrono Stone

[tacticsax3]

[No smut, I'm only particularly interested in the power games aspect of it (also she's like 13-15). Reiza can be the aggressor or the victim depending on scenario, though she probably leans more towards victim.]

[thethird]

[They're being relatively civil. Florian would really prefer keeping it that way; it'll make everything easier. For Mireille. So instead of stepping forward to indicate that he'd like to be let in, he simply glances past Jean Louis' shoulder.]

It's something we need to discuss in more detail.

[population_ctrl]

[... really. The signal isn't hard to read. It's such an inconvenience, though. You don't have to look at Florian more than once to know that he'll lose this game. And losers are messy.]

I don't think so. [A sigh, making no attempt to hide his exasperation:] Just go away.

[centeroftheweb]

[Well. Fuck]

Blackmail.
