What big eyes you have, the kind of eyes that drive wolves mad

little red riding hood;

✦ Snowlight, moonlight, a confusion of paw-prints.

All silent, all still.

Midnight; and the clock strikes. It is Christmas Day, the werewolves' birthday, the door of the solstice stands wide open; let them all sink through.

See! sweet and sound she sleeps in granny's bed, between the paws of the tender wolf. ✧

Should you really be in a place like this? You're a good kid, and this the deep, dangerous woods - literally or metaphorically. Here, there be dragons; more accurately, here their be wolves, of the big and bad variety, hungry to the core. And they're waiting for pretty young things, especially those in red hoods, because they want to gobble you up. But not with teeth and with claws (not usually), for they can lure you to your destruction in delectable, devious, wicked ways.

You way want that, though. That may be why you're here in the first place. You're not so pure, are you? Then again...you may be the wolf yourself. What you're after is the hunt, the prey you know you can swallow whole.

✧ What big eyes you have
The kind of eyes that drive wolves mad
So just to see that you don't get chased
I think I ought to walk with you for a ways

What full lips you have
They're sure to lure someone bad
So until you get to grandma's place
I think you ought to walk with me and be safe ✦

✧ HOW TO PLAY

✦ Pretty obviously, this meme is based off of the fairytale of Little Red Riding Hood, which has commonly been interpreted to be about sexual awakening and seduction. It's also inspired by the short story "In the Company of Wolves" by Angela Carter, which is worth a read.
✦ Feel free to play this scenario as completely straight (ie characters with wolf ears, werewolves, literal fairytale settings) or as allegorical (a young, inexperienced character going into a bar full of bikers, etc).
✦ Similarly, bring along any kinks you'd enjoy. Underage/lolita, non-con, dub-con, fully consensual, knotting, animal mating drives, the list goes on and on. You can do pretty much anything.
✦ Reply with your character, preferences, and what role they'll take: Big Bad Wolf (or not so bad wolf, as it may be) or Little Red.
✦ Reply to others.
✦ Thread!

✦ LITTLE REDS

Innocent ✧ You're really in over your head, an ingenue caught up in a most carnal situation.
In Sheep's Clothing ✧ The red cape's an illusion; you're a wolf, or a maneater, looking to earn trust before you strike and get just what you want, and that's their body for your pleasure.
Tempted ✧ You know you shouldn't leave the beaten path, but walking on the wild side is calling your name.
Empowered ✧ In the end, it is your decision to indulge in your own desires. You're no helpless waif.
Not So Sweet ✧ The innocent and pure look is just to get those "big bad wolves" coming your way. You know what you like, and you like it rough.
Hidden ✧ You have a side that's dark, a bad side that's just begging to be punished. You have to keep it secret, though, or you may not even realize it's there yet yourself.
Purify ✧ Even the bad can be swayed by the good, and the goodies in your basket are just sweet enough to tide the beast over.
Fallen ✧ Once you were the hero of the story. Now, the sex and the lust have driven you down a darker road.
Beauty Loves the Beast ✧ What should have been only a little, luscious death has become more. You love your wolf so, you won't let anything happen to them when the hunters come.
✦ WILDCARD

✧ BIG BAD WOLVES

Bad ✦ Every moment of being the monster is something you enjoy. There's never enough precious little treasures to whet your appetite.
Reforming ✦ Your days of being the bad wolf are over and done with...that is, until you're dragged back into your wily ways by the forbidden fruit.
Rough Around the Edges ✦ Actually, you're good, for what you are. As it stands, everyone has their vices, and even you can't stay away from someone walking into your neck of the woods.
Corrupter ✦ You know you destroy innocence and you adore every minute of it.
Finders Keepers ✦ They were wandering into your territory, so you'll keep them as a pet.
Not What You Seem ✦ You appear as if you'd be the Huntsman in this tale, but you're only hiding your teeth.
Romantic ✦ Even a wild beast has a heart. Still, how did they worm their way into yours?
What Big Teeth You Have ✦ All the better to eat you with, my dear. Oh, and you are a biting one.
Reverse ✦ How does it feel when you're the prey, instead? There's a certain rush, though, you can't deny.

[Werewolf or werebear, either way you’re in his territory now. No dub/noncon, no shy or meek characters he’s not likely to initiate anything intimate. DM to discuss or such!]

( m/f for shipping or smut. kinks and prefs in journal. he's the wolf, most likely bad, finders keepers, not what you seem, what big teeth you have.)

[Def. the big bad wolf, though a wolf disguised as the huntsman is a strong possibility.]

[can be absolutely any variety of little red against any variety of wolf! (or he can be a scrappy little wolf, why not.)

Not into vore, but any other of the suggested or obvious kinks are A+!]

( perfect to play the little red, Xingqiu is a martial arts disciple and aristocratic heir in the city where money is born, and carries a deep personal passion for heroism, justice, and honor. for little red, he's very applicable for innocent, tempted, empowered, purify, and beauty loves beast — but I can easily swing things for Xingqiu to be more not so sweet as well. he's given no canon age, but he's estimated at being ~17, and I can happily age him up a notch on request. for wolves, especially like reforming, rough edges, finders keepers, hidden huntsman, romantic, and reverse, but genuinely open to other ideas. more interested in the role types being more symbolic, that said, I love to play heavily with symbolism. dub-con is great, but not interested in non-con.

castmates and cross canon welcome; for castmates, love Albedo, Kaeya, Diluc, Childe, Zhongli, Xiao, and Lisa, but anyone else is definitely welcome. if you would like a starter, just ask! )

(ooc | Information, permissions, and warnings can be found here.

Little Red, Innocent, Tempted, Purify, Beauty Loves the Beast all work best. I'm also open to other options.)

( the suave and charismatic wolf, possibly even in a huntsman guise; Kaeya is a captain of the calvary belonging to the Knights of Favonius, but he has some unknown and very much unconventional sides to him for the association he belongs to, would love to dig a little deeper into his shadier side. that said, still interested in reforming, rough edges, corrupter, finders keepers, not what he seems, romantic, and reverse. open to any kind of little red for Kaeya. more interested in the role types being more symbolic, that said, I love to play heavily with symbolism. dub-con is great, but not interested in non-con.

castmates and cross canon welcome; for castmates, love Traveller (either,) Albedo, Fischl, Barbara, Noelle, Razor (for more than the irony,) Sucrose, Bennett, Jean, Lisa, Diluc, but open to anyone (even from Liyue and beyond.) if you would like a starter, just ask! )

[ Little red ]

[ Big Bad Wolf.

>> Zhongli: The War God
- He was once known as a ruthless god of war whose wrath fell with calculated and devastating precision, and no amount of remorse. His duty was not one of love, but of procedure and power. His word was still his bond, but humans were nothing of importance. If one took a shine to him, then so be it; if he was likewise interested in a fleeting folly, these people were his to indulge in, however he pleased.

>> Zhongli: The God of Contracts
- Eons after Guizhong's passing, he still honors his word and does earnestly love the people of his land. He's far less selfish and callous to his people, and treats them with gentler respect and patience.

Offering:
✦ Rough Around the Edges / Finders Keepers / Not What You Seem / Romantic / Wildcard

✦ I prefer to play moreso with the metaphorical sense of wolfishness, but I am interested in a character at least seeing his dragon form, just cause it's fun to play honestly.
✦ Not interested in non-con, but dub-con is fine.
✦ Moreso interested in playing it out as him being a selfish god enjoying the spoils of his duties or any offerings made to him, but I can easily write a more ruthless Zhongli if requested for the scenario.
✦ Also interested in a 'tamed wolf' approach if anyone prefers the more patient Zhongli we see in game, rather than who he was before meeting Guizhong. I've just been in such a mood to bounce him off of a Guizhong, or play with the parts of him we don't get to see in game.
✦ Not bothered by age gaps given Zhongli is over 6000, as long as the character is 16+. Mun must be 18+, however. ]

(ooc | basic information ◎ permissions ◎ warnings ◎ contact info ◎ Cross canon/medium welcome.

Little Red. Innocent (if taken early canon), Tempted, Beauty Loves the Beast (possibly; he's prickly) all work best. I'm also open to other options.)

[ if you're open to it! jones' canon involves a lot of inter-dimensional travelling for him, and he's a good, self-reliant, comfortably confident dude who really just Wants to Do the Right Thing.

i'm imagining his rift gun malfunctioning and leaving him stuck wherever arthur is? werewolves aren't new territory to him, so i think it'd be Properly Funny if for the first time ever arthur isn't seen with fear or something, hahaha. ]

[Sure, I'm completely canon blind to fortnite stuff but willing to give it a shot! Arthur's canon is 1899 America, cowboys and all that.

Open to either Van Helsing sort of werewolf or just a larger wolf.]

[ Doesn't get much more appropriate. Open to details and options, let's talk! ]

[ It's kind of unreal, the number of times John's messed up these days. He'd always thought he was better prepared for the higher order responsibilities of keeping reality stable, but that just goes to show that foresight's a real load of crap.

His rift gun's glowing red instead of blue now-- the universal symbol of "not working any more", if he's ever seen any. John's hidden it safely in his backpack, though, and-- relieved that he'd kept the dollars from the last time he was in the Old West-- he's also managed to get himself more era-appropriate attire. This isn't at all the world of legendary fighters Chun Li and Ryu, but he's not going to complain; maybe destiny'll be kind and give him something good, anyway.

Even if John's moving into territory the townsfolk had explicitly told him not to check out. Then again, John's always had a pretty skewed perception of what is and isn't a good thing. ]

Reality log number two-eight-nine-nine. [ He's talking into a tape recorder, his new boots crunching the grass beneath as he walks. ] I heard stories in town that there's some kind of beast in the area, which is-- not going to lie-- pretty worrying. Stories vary wildly from sightings to having to fight it to actual deaths, but I like to think the variance is a good thing. If all the stories were about killing, I'd have been dead as soon I set foot here.

[ John laughs. It's half-nervous. ]

Still breathing, though, so I'm gonna count that as a point in my favour. [ He stops in front of a tree, brows furrowing as his free hand traces the claw marks in the bark. ] It's a territorial creature, probably. Chances are the only reason it ever comes after anyone is because of trespassing, which... [ John's head drops down to his feet. ] I'm totally doing. [ Another nervous laugh. ] Oh, man, maybe I made a huge mistake--

[ The sound of rustling has him shutting up and immediately turning in its direction. The flashlight he'd kept hidden in his pack is pulled out, but he doesn't flick it on just yet, brows furrowed and his senses on high alert. Did he imagine it? He wouldn't be surprised if he did.

John inhales. He could run away. He could totally bail. He's only here because of his own curiosity, anyway. And yet... ]

Hello? [ Ha-ha, now he's done it. At least his voice is steady, though. ] Anyone out there? [ A beat. ] Or... anything...

Arthur couldn't even count how many wolves he must have encountered in his life, gotten bit a fair amount of times too by them. Not to the same injury as Marston got but apparently somewhere down the line one had been a werewolf because for the past year he'd been switching between his old body and that of a partially bipedal wolf.

Happened as soon as death hit him on the mountain, he'd laid there for some hours, watching the sun, exhausted, breathing his last, and then agony unlike anything before coursing through him, and he was a wolf. The TB couldn't compete. Cured and cursed all in one now.

He settled into Hamish's old place at O'Creagh's Run. It was remote enough, bit close to Beaver Hollow but it was only for a little while. His plan was to make his way west, maybe even to California or out at least that way. He lived off the land exclusively. Hunting, fishing, foraging, he couldn't risk being recognized in any town. The man, Arthur Morgan, had to die on that mountain, and be presumed dead, lest the chase continue from Pinkertons.

But he had to ensure people stayed away, so, the wolf came into play. Marking up the territory, spooking locals and travelers passing in the area, whatever he had to do. He'd been shot a few times, but, if stories were true, only silver could kill him. Bullets still hurt like hell though.

It was a cool summer evening, a nice reprieve from the heat and he'd been wandering the woods about his usual routine, looking for dinner as well when he spotted a stranger. Smelled strange, even stranger, he was talking to himself. Maybe he ought to just leave him be...Nah, couldn't risk the odd man getting any funny ideas...

Between the trees he moved into view, a massive light brown-blonde bipedal werewolf. His lips drawn back over his long canines, drool dripping down into the leaf litter as he approached.

Now, John's definitely imagined things in the dark before. Thinking his open closet had monsters in it in the middle of the night? Normal. Thinking that a hanging coat by his front door was actually a ghost? Yeah, all the time.

But the shadow that comes closer is huge, and moving, and not at all tree-shaped. Fear sets into him-- it's human instinct, and his definite lack of knowledge about the creature means it can't be helped-- but more than that, the stupid, child-like glee of actually finding what he was looking for makes his eyes light up even in the black.

"Ohhh--"

Man! What're the chances this thing'll kill him? He's fairly confident in his abilities to handle the six-shooter at his hip, but how quickly can he draw it if the so-called "beast" decides to swipe at him?

Well. If he's lucky, he can probably get away with being lightly maimed. It wouldn't be the worst injury he's ever had (in his excitement, John completely forgets that America at the turn of the 20th century might not be able to heal monster-inflicted wounds, but whatever).

His flashlight clicks on, but instead of landing on the creature's head like he was hoping, the beam lands on its chest. John's foot starts tapping impatiently with the want to run, but with the power of his own self-control, he stays stubbornly still.

"You can stand on two legs!"

And if he's really really lucky, the two-legged creature can speak English.

Arthur approached, slowly, giving the man time to think and run. He tried not to kill people when he could. It was better they go back and tell the tale of a monster in the woods rather than him needing to deal with a body. Didn't need some angry mob up here.

There's something in his hand and he doesn't have time to even try to guess what it might be when there's a bright white light. Some sort of lantern? He shields his eyes from it, blinded for a moment before he lowers his arm, looking at the man.

The comment makes him cock his head. So he wasn't scared, or if he was, he was hiding it well, more curious than spooked. Dammit.

He snorted a grunt, wiping his mouth with his forearm to stop the drool. Clearly that didn't work this time.

"Who the hell are you and what do you want?" he growled, approaching him until they were only a couple yards from one another. He was twice the man's height and had a few scars across his face.

[ If someone loves me enough they will give me junko(bad wolf)/Nanami. Otherwise I am ota anything, Nanami red riding hood. ]

Without thought or preamble, John lets out a breathless, "You."

Which is, he realises a few moments later, super vague, so he swallows immediately after and holds his free hand up in surrender (his ring finger is folded down to keep the tape recorder pressed to his palm as he does, though).

"Not-- like, I don't wanna take you away or hurt you or anything, I just sort of..." John grins, pleased with the simple success of discovery, and tries to stand taller, even if it doesn't accomplish much compared to this apparent behemoth. "I didn't know you were real. Heck, I didn't even know you'd understand me.

"In hindsight it was a dumb move. But with all the stories out there, I wanted to believe you wouldn't..." His shoulders slump with silent epiphany. The hand he'd raised drops back down to his side and hangs loose, and in much the same fashion, the bright excitement he'd started out with turns into quiet awe instead. "...hurt me."

John exhales softly in thought.

Then he takes a step forward, curious as he looks up. It's only the one step, in true "testing the waters" fashion, but if the wolf-man doesn't run away or snap at him, then John's going to count that as another point in his favour.

"I'm John. Do you have a name?"
