Okay, that's it, I'm shaming.

(kink)shame your muse(s)!
It's simple, really. Think of the age-old practice of dog shaming, but hornier, and with better results.
HOW TO PLAY
- Post your character with a 'shameful' kink as the subject.
- Shame here is subjective. We don't really care what the kink is so long as they're being outed for it.
- But God bless them if they have a humiliation kink...
- Those who respond can bully, shame, humiliate, make things worse... or they might offer to indulge?

You keep calling Hunnigan an assistant and she'll have us both hunted down. [It's a joke. Probably.]
I'm not sure if so much cross talk would fly... how is she with calling in air support? [Again he's joking. Mostly. If Hunnigan knew he was disparaging her skills, he'd probably have a smack to the back of his head waiting for him.]
So... Lyla helps you. What exactly are you two hunting down? And for who? That company of yours? [He feels that nervous edge inching back in, the uneasy twist in his stomach.]

My apologies, then. [ That's said with sincerity since Miguel didn't mean any disrespect toward her, he simply wasn't sure what to call her. ] Air support? Do you need it often? I'm afraid I don't have any jets or anything of the sort, so no, Lyla doesn't know much about those.
[ At the Spider Society, they have other more advanced machines, that might or might not resemble spiders sometimes, but not the sort of air support Leon might be thinking about. ]
No, I'm not part of any company, that was a lifetime ago. Mostly the focus is on helping with more mundane threats: bank robbers, hostage situations, escaped criminals...[ Also interdimensional anomalies that put the integrity of the universe at risk. Those are the worst.
He's talking about superhero stuff, without actually using those words. ]
no subject
[So, Miguel doesn't so what he does for a company, which is honestly great news. But he also doesn't seem like he does it for the government either.]
... Like a cop? Miguel... stop me if I'm way off base but... what you're describing sounds like vigilantism.
no subject
That's a little worrisome. Good to hear you have that support.
[ To be fair to Miguel, the government in his world is basically controlled by Giant corporations and corrupt CEOs that enforce class segregation. So fuck them. ]
Sort of like a cop, yes. We work together on occasion. Now, who's the one asking all the questions? [ Miguel raises a perfect eyebrow but says nothing more. ] Le

Good job. That's not the easiest thing to do. Especially when it comes to violent crimes.
You must be good. [He sounds genuinely impressed.] Especially if you started that pitch with 'so, I bite people'.
no subject
It can be pretty exhausting at times but nothing worth doing is easy. [ Miguel's not used to receiving praise or even thanks for what he does, quite the opposite, and it probably shows in his face. He blinks quickly a couple of times, before looking down at the interdimensional watch on his wrist, almost mumbling. ]
Thanks...I've been doing it for a while. [ The work or the biting, he doesn't clarify, so he's attempting a joke. He looks up at Leon after that. ] I should probably get going, though. It's been a nice chat but there's always more work to be done. You must know how it is.
