The Twincest AU Meme
Incest between twins is a subclass of sibling incest and includes both heterosexual and homosexual relationships. While in modern Western European culture, such behavior is considered taboo and is quite rare, incest between twins is a common feature in Indo-European, Asian (such as Japan, the Philippines, and Bali) and Oceanian mythology, and there are a few societies in which the prohibition on it is limited or it is partially accepted [Wiki].
For your whole life, you've been a one-of-a-kind. Maybe you've had siblings, but your siblings are different or older or younger. Nobody quite like you, nobody exactly close.
Or has it been like that? Don't you have someone closer than a regular sibling - a twin?
In this meme, you do! You're a twin. And not only that, but you're...close. Closer than close, actually, in ways the outside world might not understand. It may be a misconception, or you could actually be inappropriately involved; yet in the end, you still have each other, just as you started with. And who needs anyone else? You two don't.
HOW TO PLAY
- AU your character into being a twin. It will probably be fraternal twins so you can account for differences in appearances and/or gender.
- You can age characters up or down to be the same age.
- Otherwise, comment with character information and then tag others.
PROMPTS
- Treated Badly: The way you grew up was difficult, so you've pulled close to the only person you knew.
- Posing: Luckily, you look different enough that, if you should leave your childhood home, no one would know you're related.
- Protecting: There's usually a dominant, protector twin. That's you. You have to protect your brother/sister from all those out there who'd want to use them.
- Narcissism: What's better than masturbation? Being with someone who looks almost like you.
- True Love: Your love is just like any other couples'. How can you be blamed if you were born in the bodies of twins?
- No One Else Understands: Nobody gets you like your twin. It's such a relief to come to them and forget everything else.
- Exploring the Differences: You want to see everything that makes the two of you differ.
- Always Been Like This: There's almost never been a moment where you haven't been sexually or romantically involved with your twin. You don't question it.
- Childhood Returns: Some old habits from the past have started to resurface.
- Natural You were born into this world together. You're soulmates.
- Competition: Nearly everything's a game in you two's capable hands. You just want to see who's the best.
- Jealous: You want to keep what's yours all to yourself.
- Share and Share Alike: You've shared all your life. It's not stretch to share other people.
- Nonsexual: You're romantically involved, but not sexually. That's okay, you have something more pure than sex.
- Borderline: The one place you said you wouldn't go is the place you're getting closer and closer to. As long as there's no penetration, there's no sex, you tell yourself.
- Guilt: There is some self-awareness of how messed up this is.

TL;DR I'm down for whatever. :0D :0D :0D]

I'll admit the first thing the combo of ideas in your comment made me think of was taking a twist on TLJ events, with Ben being the one trying to sway Brianna and Snoke wanting her to kill him. Wouldn't need to be the same events but just that concept was where my mind went to. Could also be interesting to do something where either they meet up purposefully - unable to resist that pull despite even trying to meet up being dangerous - or they end up being in the same place/area and once one or both of them realize it they can't help but interact. ]

Hm … maybe they can meet up secretly despite the danger so Ben can try to convince Brianna to leave, or come home, or run away with him to make a new life somewhere else. What can I say, I'm terrible and I like to hurt myself via RP.]
a hundred years later here I am with a starter
Killing the source of so much strife and pain and discord in her life was entirely, without a doubt, worlds more positive than any other alternative. However, removing the voice from her head and the heavy hand on her shoulder only allowed room for other things to slip into the now empty spaces. Able to gain some control and security over her own mind, it was easier for her thoughts to drift who she'd left behind on the dark journey she'd felt she had no choice but to take. To think about Ben.
The twins had been near inseparable once upon a time. Brianna would be lying if she said she didn't miss that, miss him, but that was a luxury she hadn't been able to afford herself. Minimizing weakness was something she learned early, learned quickly, and embraced because not doing so was deadly. She still couldn't afford any weaknesses — arguably more so, now that she had taken Snoke's place — but it was harder to ignore the longing that she had done her best to bury for years. To ignore the fact that there was someone out in the galaxy that knew her, that she trusted (or had trusted, she wasn't sure if she trusted anyone nowadays), that made her feel in a way that nothing and no one else ever had.
When even battle failed to be able to distract her, once again she felt she had no choice. Perhaps if she were able to talk to Ben, to see him once more, she could finally put all these feelings and thoughts to bed. Did he want to see her though? Did he even still care? (Had anyone ever cared?) There was only one way to find out, and no longer anyone around with the power or ability to tell her no.
The location was arguably too isolated to be safe but therein was part of the appeal. If it was dangerous for both of them then it actually caused her to worry less. A planet in the Outer Rim, away from busy hyperspace routes and of no value to either side of the war. Her approach was silent and solitary in her new TIE Whisper, piloting it with the careless ease that was in their blood. When no surprises showed on the radar she set the ship down in an abandoned mining town, the coordinates of which she'd sent her twin some 24 standard hours earlier, plenty of time for either of them to change their minds — or attempt to organize an ambush for the other. Brianna had no such intent, and she felt if she were to be stabbed in the back she could handle whatever poor attempt the Resistance would make. Somehow mentally preparing for a fight was easier than preparing herself for the chance that Ben still harbored the same sort of feelings she did.
A bit of walking brought her to what looked to have once been a cantina and she went inside as much to get out of the sun as out of curiosity to see if there was anything drinkable yet inside. If Ben ended up not showing, well, that would be an answer too, although she didn't know if such an outcome would actually make her feel any less.
<3!
He loved Brianna. Always would. Tried to hold onto the hope that there was still something in her worth redeeming. Otherwise, he'd have to accept the fact that she was gone forever, and that was something that he wasn't sure he could ever do.
Ben tried to split time between working with his father and assisting his mother, but going back and forth became tedious, left him feeling like he was losing who he was in the process, trying to make up for Bri's loss.
He knew he couldn't hold out forever. And just when he thought some tenuous string was going to snap, he received coordinates from an unknown sender - and although it could have been a trap, Ben felt confident in the knowledge that it was her. After so much time had passed, it was Brianna.
Maybe it was a bit reckless of him to go in with very little preparation as to how he'd make an escape if she had less than stellar intentions for him, but then - recklessness was in their blood and there was no denying the truth of their shared bloodline.
Ben'd been through too many tense situations to go in completely unarmed, though. Even thought he probably should have unsheathed the blaster at his hip, he left it in its holster he disembarked and began following the invisible trail his sister had left for him.
It didn't take long for him to enter the same decrepit cantina, his senses on high alert, pulse thready with each step he took deeper into the building. It was hard to say what to expect, and his body teetered on the verge between fight and flight.
She was here.

The subtle sound of an approach, though, that certainly merited her attention.
Brianna had wandered behind the bar, her cloak trailing behind and stirring the dust more than her actual passage, but the sound — the sense — of another caused her to still and stiffen. Was it actually him? But no, she knew before she even laid eyes on him. A shift in the air, a certain something like a slight tug on a string, not simply demanding her attention but also forcing her to note how long it had been since she'd felt such a thing.
She'd thought she had planned for most things. Thought she was prepared for the most likely outcomes. Yet it all seemed to go out the window once she saw Ben, anxiety and adrenaline both suddenly surging through her.
"I wasn't sure you would come." Honest, too honest. She managed to keep her voice fairly even though she wasn't sure the same could be said of her expression, what had become her trademark helm not having made the trip with her.
no subject
Twenty-odd years of intermittently traveling with his father had taught Ben at least one important bit of knowledge. Anything could happen at any time, and it was best to always be prepared.
Brianna might have been his sister, but after so many years spent apart, so many years spent on opposite sides of galactic civil war, Ben wasn't sure that he would know her anymore, or if the sister that he remembered even existed anymore, even in bits and pieces.
He approached slowly, but made sure to keep his distance, even though the closer he neared, the more he felt the pull to be even closer. Almost broke his heart to feel it again after so long, just as strong as ever.
But this wasn't the time to ponder the reasons why, and he couldn't afford to shift his focus anywhere other than right where it was. On Brianna.
She didn't appear to pose a threat, but again … anything was possible.
"Wasn't sure, either", he replied, his voice light in a way that his heart did not feel. "Not until I was halfway here."
no subject
She too moved, careful steps that drew her out from behind the bar, less to outright approach and more not wanting the appearance of preferring to keep something other than simple distance between them. There couldn't be any slight chance for it to seem like she felt the need for some kind of defense past her own. It wasn't even a matter of her thinking he would see it that way, it had just become that much of a habit for her to try and stay aware of the image she presented. She had to when she was surrounded by many who would jump on any perceived weakness.
It's good to see you was what she felt tempted to say. Instead she remarked on something she was sure was on his mind, if only because it would have been on hers. "I'm alone, in case you were wondering. No destroyers lurking elsewhere in the system." Granted, the words probably wouldn't mean much if he didn't trust her, but it had never really been her way to lie.
no subject
Not because he wanted his twin to hurt in the same way, but because he wanted her to understand that there had never been a moment that he hadn't missed her with every bit of his being. He had. And once they inevitably parted again, he still would.
Ben's expression might have been neutral, but he was very well aware of Bri's movements and how careful she was being with them. Regardless, he didn't feel threatened. And even if something did happen, he was formidable enough a scrapper that he thought he could take care of himself. For a while, anyway. He knew how brutally efficient she was, too. He'd heard the stories.
I've missed you sat heavily on the tip of his tongue, but Ben didn't dare say as much out loud, not yet. Not while they were still feeling each other out. He chuckled and shrugged at her words, the corners of his lips pulled up into the hint of a smile. "That's nice to know. I'm alone, too. Figured you weren't looking for an audience."
