Alpha/Beta/Omega

THE ALPHA/BETA/OMEGA MEME


In our world, sexual roles are commonly defined by genders -- male or female or other, by sexualities -- gay or straight, bi or asexual or in-between. But what if they were defined by something else entirely?

Alpha/Beta/Omegaverse is a fusion of fanfiction tropes and animalistic behavior. In this world, sexual roles are divided into three categories: the Alphas (the dominant, the protective and the aggressive), the Betas (ordinary humans) and the Omegas (submissive, fertile and able to carry children).

CONTENT WARNING: Below the cut contains descriptions of animalistic sexual behavior as applied to humans, situations of dubious consent, explicit situations, mpreg, and scenarios of societal oppression. Click with caution!

 

ROLES:
1 - The Alpha.
* Stereotypically type A personalities.
* Anatomically: Males have a penis; females may have a penis in addition to a vagina.
* Alphas knot their mates, meaning that the base of the penis swells and locks them inside their mate while they produce copious amounts of semen in an effort to breed.
* Strong sense of smell.
* Near an Omega in heat, they experience a compulsion to mate that is almost impossible to overcome.
* Alphas may go into rut, which is their equivalent of Omega heat, and drives them to mate.

2 - The Beta.
* Ordinary human being.
* Males have penises; females have vaginas.
* Can mate to anyone.
* Might be able to smell hormones of Omegas and Alphas, but will not be overwhelmingly affected by them.

3 - The Omega.
* Stereotypically submissive, quiet, intelligent and less physically able.
* Female anatomy is similar to Betas; males are self-lubricating and may have either an external or internal vaginal setup.
* Regularly go into heat, which involves being overcome by the urge to mate. They are unable to consent while in heat.
* May be made compliant by a bite to the neck. However, that may also induce a mating bond.
* Often regarded as second-class citizens or prizes to be won.

SITUATIONS:
1 - Bonding - Love at first sight. You've spotted your soulmate. You can smell them, you can feel them, you know that they'll be with you until the end of your days. Unless there's something between the two of you. It could be age - maybe one of you has to wait until the other has reached maturity. It could be that the bond is one-sided, and the other has yet to fall in love. It could be an unwanted bond, or society could have divided you into different places. Is your love strong enough to conquer?

2 - Heat/Rut - The need is coming on you strong. Everyone for a half-mile around can smell it. Better find someone to ride it out with, or hole yourself up in a room with a few bottles of water and a durable sex toy. And you'd better hope that there isn't someone out there who will take advantage of your pliable state. Best case scenario, there might be a Beta who can take care of you, or fend off anyone too predatory.

3 - Pregnancy - Whether through a heat or not, you're pregnant. Congratulations - or condolences. Is it time to start a family, or time to start panicking?

4 - Suppressants - You're using suppressants to keep yourself on an even hormone cycle, skipping heats, or maybe pretending to pass as a different class of society. After all, Omegas might want to be in the military, where they're not usually allowed - or an Alpha might want to take a job in a university or as a nurse. Shouldn't they be allowed to, if their hormones are suppressed? Just hope that you don't miss a dose.

5 - Mistaken Identity - That friend that you always thought was an Alpha, or an Omega, or a neutral Beta, turns out to be something entirely different, and your world is turned absolutely upside down. Does it challenge your preconceptions? Or does it just ruin the balance between you two?

6 - Unlikely Pairs - After all, there's no actual reason that Alphas have to mate with Omegas. Maybe two Omegas can satisfy each other. Or two Alphas. Or your intended mate could easily be a Beta. Maybe this is just about breaking out of your pre-established role and becoming something new.

7 - Manifestation - In some cases, an individual may not know they are Omega, Beta or Alpha until their first heat/rut/manifestation, usually happening in early teen years. It may take you by surprise; it may be a blessing, or may be a deep disappointment.

8 - Other - Adventures in getting jobs, making families, fighting bad guys, and anything else you can come up with!

Scott's practically tempted to bite down on his own fist as Isaac slides out from between him and the door, stepping out of the remainder of his clothes before he crawls onto the bed on all fours and glances back at him invitingly, a complete contrast to the bashfulness he'd displayed earlier.

He presses the heel of his hand against the front of his pants, rubbing his cock through his jeans to try and help, but it's too late - he's rock hard and throbbing painfully, and all he can do now is take off the rest of his clothes, shoving jeans and briefs down with both hands and kicking the pile of clothes across the floor as he crosses the room to crawl onto the bed behind Isaac, sliding a hand up the inside of his thigh.

"Like that," he replies, eyes dark and flashing with want as he kneels behind the other wolf, using palms to massage and knead his backside, coaxing the cheeks apart. He slicks a finger in his mouth and then presses the tip to Isaac's entrance, gently circling that puckered hole before slowly pushing in, testing his readiness.

Isaac watched Scott approach him with a hungry look, wanting the raven haired boy more than ever. He let out a throaty growl and shuddered as Scott ran his hand up the inside of his thigh. He watched Scott with great anticipation, eyes filled with lust, but when he saw the long digit enter his mouth, his eyes close and head falls forward, causing his body to open up slightly more for the other wolf.

He spreads his legs at the non verbal command and shakes his ass a bit, the need and heat still overtaking his body. Isaac moaned, loudly, his silent pleas answered as his puckered entrance is teased and tested, this is what he is really craving, even though he didn't know this is what he wanted. Now, there was not other thought or want that did not include having the dominant wolf inside him. His eyes flash gold and his canines extend as he loses his control a bit and bites a pillow to muffle the sounds he is making.
