imperfect, slightly painful sex.

Despite what movies or TV or RP will tell you, sex isn't perfect most of the time. This meme explores those times where it's painfully imperfect. But this is no fail sex meme, no real humor here. Awkwardness, maybe, yet the real subject here is when intercourse hurts: physically or emotionally. Whether the problem is past experience or trauma, size difference, incompatible species, powers, current feelings, other love interests, or a whole myriad of other issues, all can be explored here.

HOW TO PLAY
★ Comment with your character, preferences, preferred role, all that good stuff.

PROMPTS
★ Physical: The position or actual mechanics aren't doing anything for you.
★ Emotional: Sex is uncomfortable because of contact, connections, or intimacy.
★ Raw: Something terrible has happened in your past, leaving you too vulnerable to be comfortable with sex.
★ Not Ready: Whether it's mentally or physically - ie, you haven't had enough foreplay to get you turned on - you're not ready.
★ First Time: What it says on the tin.
★ As It Begins: Initial penetration can be uncomfortable.
★ Into It: They're too enthusiastic and not being mindful, perhaps due to inexperience.
★ Gift is My Curse: A power or ability of yours can hurt someone you're intimate with, though it may usually be a benefit.
★ Should Hate You: You two just had an argument and one of you doesn't have your heart in it.
★ Place and Time: Sometimes, the time and place really isn't right.
★ Size: Whether their body is too big to balance on top of you or...other things are bigger, you're suddenly feeling a bit small.
★ Wrong Configuration: You two are of different species, so you don't exactly fit in that way.
★ Too Rough: They're unawares, but they're not being gentle enough.
★ Powerful Impulse: Something in them is telling them to hurt you in some way.
★ Remind Me of...: Being with them makes you recall someone else, perhaps from long ago or maybe even someone you'd rather be with; understandably, this makes your heart hurt.
★ Always Afraid of Hurting You: You can tell they're holding back. You don't want them to.
★ Keep On: It doesn't matter if it hurts; your feelings for them mean you can soldier on, as long as you get to be with them.
★ Kind of Like It: Actually, the pain kind of turns you on.

[OOC; My jam. Open to all prompts, cross-canon and canon-mates. Open to any role but would prefer to discuss things beforehand.]

[ .....this is the bad place. ]

[Giving. No "wrong configuration." Yes to "place and time," with it being semi-public. "Into it," and "too rough" are also a solid yes. Talk with me!]

[Cross-canon and other OCs welcome.

[Raine is a fairly lazy-minded individual who prefers to get as much out of as little effort. In bed, however, is a different story. They enjoy lots of things, including Dom/sub play in either role, but they are often prone to Dom drop after the deed, if they were in charge, and likely will need aftercare, themself. They also have a big dick atop of their small stature, and are often nervous of others' opinions of them based on said size. Partners who call them cute in spite of that (or even because of it) can easily put Raine at ease.

[VERY Yes: As It Begins, Into It, Gift Is My Curse*, Place and Time, Size, Wrong Configuration*, Too Rough, Powerful Impulse, Remind Me of...**, Keep On, Kind of Like It.

[*Raine has the ability to have inhuman genitals due to their were-cat blood, and as such, can also link to Wrong Configuration. This, however, is opt-in, and Raine will not have such a configuration without prior discussion.

[**Raine is a widower and there is a chance of them thinking of their late husband during the deed, but usually they have sufficient affection for the current person they're with.

[No: Emotional, Raw.]
