Temptation

[marlowe_tops]

Seducing 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.

[ untouchable: sworn to the cloth. gimme all you got. he's a madman. ]

[raventonbeauty]

[ Canon-blind to yours but tempted by madman cult leader so I skimmed the wiki a bit. Ashley here is also mad: his defining characteristics are vanity, madness, and a lack of morals or squeamishness. Catholic raised but can easily be led onto new religious paths. Do you want to do a Project at Eden’s Gate setting or an AU? Ashley AUs well into historical settings, if you’d be interested in doing a rural historical priest or a cult leader with a castle.]

pukin ( mhik:limited ) f/f

[splattering]

( sworn to the cloth, or red as blood.

pukin is a woman described to look like a man, so we could get up to some genderfuckery and have her be a woman priest for sworn to the cloth. as for red as blood, she likes nuns. )

akemi morishita | original | m/m

[cupidite]

( most likely red as blood, but white as snow could work too. )

[markofkane]

[He's a noble that became a Puritan and pretty close to celibate. Have fun. Any of the Untouchables would be appropriate. ]

[littledhampir]

[ Sworn to the Cause. Guardian (Personal Guard) to the future Queen of her people. Relationships are uncommon within their society. Relationships with those outside of it are unheard of. Unlikely to sway for the temptation of sex alone. Assumed CR welcome. Cross Canon loved. ]

[lotsoftalent]

((Sworn to the cloth or sworn to the crown. Up for anything even if things might take a dark tone to it ))

Re: Makoto Kino| Bishoujo Sailor Moon | M/F

[legitlessgrump]

[Up for maybe sworn to the cloth with this guy? Maybe she ended up taking him in when he was hurt, he tried to repay things with good deeds, and they keep growing closer?]

[lotsoftalent]

((Aye~ Sounds fine to me.))

Helping others was always something they were sworn to do. Not just by a sworn duty, but showing good faith to mankind. Showing how strong their beliefs were in keeping peace within the world. Really the only life she's ever known, since she was taken in when orphaned. So, she was more than helpful when he showed up, collapsed really on the steps here. She honestly wondered how he made it so far here. She hardly needed much help in carrying him as she did have an unusual strength to her. Between her remedies and help from others he was able to heal properly which was a good relief to her whilst praying at his bedside and between that she'd have some very pleasant conversations with him and enjoying his company. Maybe more so than she should as getting so close to another in friendship and dare even more was forbidden here. Even whilst healing for the better he still tried to make himself useful despite her telling him it wasn't necessary. Besides, he would have to leave soon and that would be for the better. Even the simplest of hand brushes with flesh touching made her very anxious for some reason with him.

"You don't have to do that. I'll fix it." Just needed to fix the linen for the bed. It wasn't a burden.

Face usually veiled much like the other nuns here for the sake of modesty as she didn't show it to anyone but her sisters.

[legitlessgrump]

He wasn't really a believer of God, not after what he had to go through most nights. But he appreciated the help. At least staying here provided some comfort and sense of ease. Though he couldn't just lay around all the time, and insisted he do some help. He began to notice things like what Makoto just did, hand retracting and whatnot. He couldn't help but be curious now.

"It's not really that hard for me. I can do it." He moved to grab the object, only to take hold her hand in his strong grip. An accident, but now he was noticing how soft she was...

[lotsoftalent]

So stubborn. There wasn't any need to do that as these were also a part of chores of her. There was a brief loss of words when she had went to say somethinig, but flinched at the sudden hold of her hand as the contents fell from her arms onto the floor. It felt like she had froze in place feeling such a grasp around her hand. Her hands were quite soft for someone that worked so hard. Did his hands always felt like that when grabbing something? One could only imagine how it felt on anywhere else than just the ha--no, no. Why was she thinking such a thing?! She could already feel the color rising to her face. Least her veil saved her face from the blush that came forth. Eventually hand retracted back as she held it against her chest.

His grip didn't hurt it just...made her feel weak all of a sudden?

It almost felt like it burned her as the heat lingered.

"Ah...I-I'm getting more clumsy these days. S-sorry, but you also shouldn't be so...careless like that."

[legitlessgrump]

"...fair enough. Sorry."

He wasn't used to any of this, not even getting their devotion to God. They really did come from different worlds. Maybe that's why he felt some kind of attraction to her, despite never seeing Makoto's face. Forbidden fruit kind of thing? His only guess.

He picked the sheet back up, handing it to Makoto. "Here. If you really want to that is."

[lotsoftalent]

"Thank you."

There was a quiet sigh given before she took the sheets again with a gentle nob of her head before getting up so she could properly change them out. CArefully taking it as she wasn't sure she could handle anymore touching with the hands. It was interesting how he could easily identify her by her voice and how she carried herself when she came to see him. Voice cleared to attempt to get how flustered she was out of her system.

"You're almost to full health and that really pleases me that you'll be more than strong enough to depart. You should take the time to take things easy while you're here as you are a welcomed guest and friend here."

[legitlessgrump]

"It's difficult for me. Let's just say I'm usually better when my mind is put on a task."

He worked and fought so much, that trying to do anything else seemed off. Working was practically drilled into his skull. That and he couldn't just not repay them for their kindness. Could have just as easily tossed him to the side like some people have.

"Also...is it really that hard being near me? You seem quite nervous."

[lotsoftalent]

"Ah...well it's..." It was hard to really explain without feeling embarrassed by his question.

"Though I've enjoyed getting to know you for some time now and our conversations I...well, I'm afraid I'm not really use to being around men so closely like this.
So, I hope you don't feel ill of me admitting this to you as it's really not your fault."

She quietly murmured as she leaned up and brushed her hand across her dress. It was very different from being around her robed sisters. His touch and over all presence had been making her feel so different. Like her senses had heightened and her body was far more sensitive to the human touch. Maybe that was just her imagination.

"I've never really held a man's hand or anything more than that is all. It's...quite the experience."

[legitlessgrump]

Her interaction with men must have been extremely limited. Chances are it could hamper her abilities in the future here. Though she seemed fine so long as she wasn't touched. And...it was hard to convince himself he just wanted to help her, especially given how being near her was something he also wanted.

"Maybe I can help with that. After all, if this keeps up, I imagine if other guys come around, it would be harder to do your job."

[lotsoftalent]

Help? There was uncertainty about how he would be able to help, yet...she didn't want to have the same problem arise when her mind started to get clouded with distracting thoughts that could be deemed as 'unpure'. She would like to be able to more at peace with this.

"It..most likely would. Any help would be greatly appreciated to be comfortable or sate this feeling."

[legitlessgrump]

Least she seemed agreeable to the idea. Some kind of progress at least. Really, this was something he should have just ignored, yet the feeling could not go away. Maybe she had an ability she just didn't know how to use. Or maybe it was something else, and it did bother him a lot. Not that it showed as he just gave a friendly smile.

"Good. I'll get a quick bite to eat while you clean, and we'll meet up back in this room. Does that work for you?"

[lotsoftalent]

"That sounds fine. I'll finish up things here while you go do that."

Though the waiting part made her feel a bit anxious, but duties do always come first. No need to start getting distracted more than she already had been, as she had noticed her time spent was usually with him at times. It was strange how much she wanted to be around him was that what attraction felt like? Or perhaps a faux feeling as he had been the only male around her.

[legitlessgrump]

The wait did take a bit, with Hei always wanting to make the best of what food he had. At least if his stomach didn't feel like consuming everything at once. Sometimes it proved to be the hardest thing to control.

He eventually returns, and moves to sit on the bed, patting the spot next to him. "We'll start with something basic. Just, try to focus on holding my hand."

[lotsoftalent]

"Your hand....right."

Just his hand. There was nothing to that right? It was such a social norm for people to touch hands in some kind of manner even in greeting. For some reason it just made her heart beat in her chest as her eyes glanced at his hand through her veil. Sitting down next to him in the empty spot she would slowly move to place her hand over his gently.

[legitlessgrump]

He waited patiently, watching her closely as she tried to touch him. Once their hands were joined, he put his hand over hers, and stared at her.

"Well? How do you feel?"

Allura | Voltron: Legendary Defender | OTA

[lastroyal]

[ Sworn to the Crown or Sworn to the Cause both seem about right, but I'd be glad to hear other ideas. Allura is easily adaptable to other settings (especially fantasy and sci-fi), so non-castmates are also welcome. ]
