Bodyguard

[sarabi]

the bodyguard meme You're a pop star, or a royal, or maybe even the last of your kind who will bring about the Earth's redemption. Whatever the case may be, you're in a position that may be a bit dicey if you attract the wrong kind of attention. And you're a bodyguard, a soldier, a knight - a protector. Somehow, you've been roped into protecting this person. You'll be rewarded, of course. The work may be cut out for you, but just do your job, keep your head down, and it'll go smooth. Except for when the two of you break the bounds of professionalism and feelings begin to flourish. Being in such close quarters may get you to see the other in a different light, and saving someone's life just may be the ultimate form of intimacy. Could this be the real danger? To feel so strongly for the one you've sworn to protect...are you compromised? How to Play 1. Comment with your character and preferences, being sure to put if you want to play the guard, the guarded, or either. Also, you may want to put if you prefer fluffy, angsty, or smutty interaction - or have no preference. 2. Comment to others. 3. There are no prompts, because there are so many potential options there could be a hundred. Feel free to play anything: the beginnings of the relationship, just meeting, getting used to each other/not getting along at first, the obligatory first time, a threat on the protected's life and how their protector responds, how the feelings between the two has changed the protection, etc. Your only limit is you.

( definitely the one being protected, by or from either supernatural threats or more ordinary ones. she's been kidnapped and threatened before, and is pretty resourceful and threatening in her own right while not having any appropriate training or preparation that a bodyguard would bring to the table.

info in journal! m/f or f/f, 30+. )

[Post-UA AU career possibility for someone in need of close protection?]

Prompto Argentum | Final Fantasy XV

[real_life_rpg]

[ Most likely the guard.

Unless we go some kind of Empire AU where Prompto is Niff royalty ]

[ give this upcoming actor a bodyguard. one (well two) specific big part(s) of his character is also a spoiler for ep1 so lmk if you 1. don't care about spoilers, 2. already know 3. care about spoilers -- still viable since your character wouldn't know this secret fact of his unless they're telepathic. m/m. character's age pull point is 17. ]

Gebura | Library of Ruina

[bemist]

[ Definitely the bodyguard, could play her as current or from her days as a Color Fixer, would prefer to avoid smut options for now! ]

Angela Carpenter | Carole & Tuesday

[industryplant]

[She's an up and coming pop star (who had at least one incident of dealing with a stalker already), so she'd be the protected one here! She can be a little abrasive, if she doesn't feel like she's being taken seriously, but deals well with people that can either calmly stand up to her or just shrug her off.

She's 16-17 in canon, but I don't mind aging her up a bit (might be fun to do a future AU where she's an even bigger star tbh). Open to f/m or f/f, I'd just prefer to have partners under 25 if we're keeping her a teenager.]

[calrippedso]

[Almost certainly the bodyguard. 21+ characters for anything shippy, please.]

kenma | haikyuu

[determine]

[ timeskip? au? guarded. m/m ]

kaveh | genshin impact

[merlot]

[ m/m; preferences; a famous architect who needs protection from a former client and/or a very aggressive debt collector. could also accidentally fall into the role of bodyguard by saving someone from danger at exactly the right time. would be down for the mess that would be kaveh having no idea how to actually do the job he's been hired for. ]

[bristows]

[ either role and ota! ]

Brock Rumlow -- MCU

[ukase]

[better as a bodyguard, but he'll play damsel in distress for the fun of it in certain scenarios and with certain characters.]

Marina Andrieski (23) | The Magicians | OTA

[andrieski]

[Marina is more like a reluctant bodyguard, but it could be fun to have her be the one that needs saving. So I'm down for whatever. She'll be grumbly either way.]

Atem ( YGO )

[millenniumpharaoh]

y'shtola rhul — final fantasy xiv.

[shtola]

( she could technically be either. )
