Most societies have certain mores that are unspoken rules; humanity itself even has such conventions, grilled subconsciously into our minds for our own safety. Don't go out alone at night. Avoid getting wet when it's cold. Don't pick fights with those stronger than you...okay, some of us missed the boat on the last one, but the point still stands. Society's rules tend to be more variable, though they apply to most aspects of life - including sex. In fact, bending the rules on what's considered acceptable in romance and sexual encounters can lead to anything from ostracization to death, depending on the time and culture.
So, play it close to the chest if you're going to do a big, big, big t a b o o. Is it worth the risk?
- Comment with your character and preferences. Be sure to include what you want and what you DON'T WANT. Blank comments are fine; info is even better!
- Reply to others.
- Be fun and respect others, as this will deal with some heavy topics and potentially triggering material s.
A G E ( DIFFERENCE ) - light of my life, fire of my loins. you're supposed to stick to those your own age, but you can't resist.
I N C E S T - you're of the same blood, yet something draws you together. you'll keep your secret thicker than water.
C H E A T I N G - when you were young, they should have taught you to not take things that belong to other people.
I N ( PUBLIC ) - to involve unsuspecting others in your sex is insidious, but you can't resist it.
S U P E R F L U O U S - some conservative societies view sex outside procreational purposes as taboo. that means anal, oral, and toys are all no-go.
F I X A T I O N - you're nearly obsessed with one part of your partner - breasts, ass, lips...whatever the case may be, you always focus on that.
D E V I A N C Y ( IN SUBURBIA ) - there are some things that should be sacred. the home should be one of those. should.
S I Z E - pick on someone your own size. couples with large size difference, be it height or weight, can be looked down upon; don't let that get you down.
P H O B I A - unfortunately, in some societies, being with someone of the same gender is a taboo, no matter how much progress the modern world has made.
F E T I S H - some just can't get off without their fetish, and the varieties run the gamut: feet, crossdressing, autoerotic asphyxiation, foodplay, bondage...it goes on and on.
U N E X P E C T E D ( DOMINATION/SUBMISSION ) - the masculine must be dominant. the feminine must be submissive. what if you're dominant in life, though, and just want to be submissive in the bedroom.
V I O L E N T - more than mere lover's spats, what goes on between you two is dangerous. if people knew, they'd be horrified. still, you can't stop.
F O R B I D D E N ( LOVE ) - your relationship may be taboo, but there's genuine love in your copulation. this isn't merely a thrill.
L O O S E - monogamy isn't what you're after. no matter how looked down upon it is, you're going to have fun while you can.
S T U D E N T / T E A C H E R - what goes on between the sheets is not an appropriate subject matter to teach. there's so much to lose; is it a smart game to play?
A U T H O R I T Y - perhaps they're the boss, the president, the king, but you, you're a lowly peon. are they using their powers over you or is this something you both want?
I N T E R S P E C I E S - kind finds kind, and don't you be a traitor by being with one of them.
B E S T I A L I T Y - one of the most primal taboos. will you go into that moral wilderness?
S O C I A L ( CLASS ) - the rich. the poor. it's like they're in two different worlds. what will the uppercrust say if they saw their golden child with a tramp?
C E L I B A C Y - you are supposed to keep your chastity, but things are never that easy.
S T O C K H O L M - prisoners should never fall for their guards.
D U T I E S - whether it be saving the world or being the world's best bodyguard, your sworn quest and purpose keeps you from enjoying the sins of the flesh - especially with your charges.
I N N O C E N C E - one of you is much more worldly, and to ruin the "innocence" of the other feels unclean.
F E R T I L E - you aren't supposed to find mothers or fathers sexually alluring. however, there's something so enticing about fertility...perhaps even pregnancy.
C O R R U P T I O N - society expects you to treat your partner well, not try to destroy them through sexual degradation.
N O N C O N S E N S U A L - consent is rightfully important to a healthy sexual relationship. to break that trust is taboo. |

Let's play it by ear then!
He'd found work, and he'd tried to start his life over again. Sean had done it once before, so what would be different now? He'd tried to make friends. He'd tried to get out and start dating. Fuck, he'd even just gone straight to trying to hook-up. But nothing clicked. People didn't call him back, and lots of dates ended early. He was probably coming on too strong, and nobody liked the stink of desperation on a person. The little black pit in his chest had just gotten deeper and wider by the day, and he'd finally broken down two months ago and made a call for help, because all he wanted to do was die so he'd stop feeling so broken up over Roger. He'd gotten a therapy appointment and shown up, and given all his information in a small clinical office while a lady wrote down extensive notes on a clipboard. She gave him a print-out and said they'd see if they could find him someone on the sliding scale. It hadn't sounded hopeful. He'd resigned himself to waiting another six months at least before doing anything stupid. Or, anything permanent.
A month and a half after that, he finally got a call with an address and a time. Sean had expected another of those squat clinics with the crowded waiting rooms, but... this was a nice neighborhood, with a gorgeous brownstone. He got worried when he saw his appointment was outside of clinic hours, and even more worried when the waiting room - far too nice frankly, with real furniture instead of the plastic stuff you knew they hosed down twice a year - was empty, without any receptionist or anything.
There's got to be a mistake. He probably shouldn't be here. Somebody must have fucked up. There's no way this doctor operates on a sliding scale. Jesus, hopefully it isn't costing him to just be standing here. He checks his watch and looks around. Usually someone calls him in but... There's not really anybody to call him in.
After a long, nervous moment, Sean knocks at the door and waits there, hands shoved in his pockets.] U-uh, hello? I'm Sean O'Malley, I'm... here for the 5pm appointment, I think?
no subject
Yes, Mr. O'Malley. Welcome. Please come in.
[He stands aside and gestures for Sean to enter.]
no subject
This is the best dressed man that Sean's seen outside of a magazine. He's absolutely immaculate looking and he has that look to him that Sean hasn't seen since he left Ireland, just... just continental European in that classical sort of sense. Sean just hunches more in his jacket as he makes himself step inside, and he holds a hand out to shake.]
Dr. Lecter? Uh, hi, sorry I'm just... a little more used to... y'know. Not this. I'm on the sliding scale, is that okay?
[He's trying to stay focused but his eyes can't help but wander. Fuck this is such a nice place. And... it's sorta funny, because it also feels impossibly homey too. Not that his house looked anything like this growing up but... in a city that often feels very young, this place feels timeless the way the old stone buildings he grew up with did.]
no subject
When the man finally steps inside, Hannibal accepts the hand, rough with manual labor, in his own warm and smooth hand, a firm handshake.]
Yes, I was notified of your status. Please, Mr. O'Malley, make yourself comfortable.
[He closes the door behind his patient and gestures toward two leather armchairs set in the middle of the room.]
no subject
He manages to be physically comfortable, but mentally comfortable is a bit of a high bar. That's not Dr. Lecter's fault though. That's on Sean. He sets his hands in his lap, lacing the fingers together.]
So uh... I... uh. Wheeeere should we start? I read the handouts the other lady printed out for me, and tried to do them. And I've been trying to get out of the house like she said, and to be social again but it's... it's been hard. Anytime I go out, I feel like I'm running across people who ask me about Roger, and I have to tell them all over again that we're not dating anymore, and then I feel that rush of agony all over again. And I'm trying so hard not to come off as the desperate one, but it must be rolling off me in stink waves because I've had no luck at all with friends or dating, or anything of the store since the break-up.
