♱ Yuma. Twenty-one ; ; F-List
“ ─ O, why should nature build so foul a den, Unless the gods delight in tragedies?”
─ Titus Andronicus, Act IV
I am Yuma. Welcome to an overturned & updated version of my previous request thread. Having returned from an unexpected hiatus, I'm doing my best to catch up. If I've missed anything, please let me know via PM! Like before, I'll spare you the self-summary and move on to what I'm looking for:
- Thread or PM roleplays. I prefer to stay away from IM platforms.
- Flexible writers. Don't force quantity where it isn't needed!
- Folk who understand OOC boundaries.
- Reliable OOC communication.
- Stress-free writing. I'm quite active myself, but I will not expect you to adhere to my own schedule.
- Comprehensive story-building. I adore a well-thickened plot.
- Light to heavy bondage.
- Coercion/blackmail.
- (Dark) Romance
- Jealousy
Writing-wise, I view myself as quite literate and would expect my partner to have a good grasp on grammar and spelling as well. Mistakes happen and are perfectly understandable however, so no fretting! I'm an absolute sucker for storylines and would appreciate writing partners who are just as confident with world-building and plot-pushing, regardless of how 'submissive' their character might be. Feel free to ask for writing samples and tidbits when you approach me, if that's your fancy.
My smut to story ratios vary and I don't have any particular preference, so long as there's a bit of story crammed in somewhere. Let me know what your expectations are!
I tend to use written descriptions as a sole form of reference for my characters, but during instances where faceclaims are included, I vary between the use of realistic and artistic references depending on the setting's aesthetic and my partner's own preference.
Moving swiftly on.

Medieval Fantasy, Werebeasts (?)
She was born of the moon -- an aspect of beast blood. Her family revere physical prowess, and value strength above all else. But she is weak, frail, imperfect; a runt living in the shadow of her elder brothers. Though noble-born, she is long cast aside, shamed by her forebears and targeted by her brethren.
Having given up on her beast form, she instead hopes to prove herself worthy of her name by some other means. She flees her home in search of a figure she has only ever heard tales of; a lone swordsman, a remnant of a war long passed. She offers them trinkets and coins stolen from her father's archives in exchange for training, and claims that she will not return until she is strong enough to challenge their leader -- a feat she is immediately mocked for. Her pleading is eventually accepted, but her new master is exceptionally cruel. Their lessons push through the seasons with slow progress, and secrets from both sides begin to emerge into the light.

Modern Crime/Horror, inspired by novels written by Thomas Harris. (?)
A student is pulled from the Academy to assist in the psychological profiling and eventual capture of a serial killer at-large, who has become infamous for his continuing series of kidnapping, skinning, and killing of young women in the state.
In order to aid her research, she gains access to and confides in another killer, who remains incarcerated in a secure hospital following his arrest some years ago. The former psychiatrist offers the student a thorough profile of the killer she seeks, in exchange for tidbits of information about herself and her own psyche. A twisted game of psychological cat and mouse ensues amidst her case, wherein the disgraced psychiatrist forms an immense sense of obsession towards the student, and the student herself cannot help but return to him.
&, whilst she chases the killer at-large, her helping hand seeks to escape the hospital himself.

Modern, Superheroes.
She was a troubled girl, taken in and raised to be the ward of the city's hero -- a sidekick, by any stretch of the definition. She only had eyes for him, though she was bitter and stubborn and never acted upon it. But now he was dead, his light extinguished by the one he dubbed his archenemy.
& the villain does not kill her, but rather takes her to be his own squire; an object of torment he drags along as he levels everything she's ever known. The slow twisting of beloved sidekick to disturbed supervillain; a tale of manipulation and brainwashing beyond doubt. The ultimate revenge against his dead rival.

Medieval Fantasy, Vampires, Multiple Characters (?)
She is the last of her line; an ancient family of vampires, massacred years ago by their enemies. Their blood contained phenomenal power, and so they the youngest alive, keeping her healthy until they can find a suitable consort for her to pass her power onto. Though ultimately a prisoner, she is content to fulfill the duty that has been given to her, and despite the enormity of her power she has yet to raise a hand against any of her keepers.
Though physically weak and often sick, she bears immense psychological prowess. Through her pairing with some flavor of warrior, it is hoped that she will mother the foundations of a new line of unstoppable beings.
