As or against?

[WaveVelour]

Hey~ An interesting question came to my mind a while ago. Think of an already established character, let it be fandom, celebrity or anything but original. Someone you like/hate, simply someone fun to include in an RP.

You find a partner equally interested as well. Both of you know him/her well and both of you can write them convincingly or just in a fun way.

Would you like it more to play as the character yourself, or rather prefer to play against them? Dictating their decisions, or interacting with them? Write them submit to another, or surrender YC to him or her? Explore their kinky side as or against them?

That’s about it =) I personally mostly use original characters, but would have preferred to play as the main attraction.

If the other partner wants to do it, against; if they'll do a good job, I have more than plenty of alternative choices. If they're skittish or it really doesn't matter and my deference just drags things on, then I'd go for as.

It depends. Some of the characters I love, I'd rather "be". Others, I'd write to be "with". If I want both I'll write it all myself, I've done it. And sometimes I just want to read both so, FF it is.

It depends on who the character is, if for example it is a female character that I have some kind of crush on then I would prefer to play against them so I get to interact with them. If it is a male character or a character I am not crushing on then I would be just as happy playing them, especially if my partner was crushing on them.

I would normally prefer to be playing opposite the character I'm interested in, but I'm currently engaged in an RP where I'm playing two pornstars in a 'fuck a fan' competition. My RP partner is playing the fans. It's just a fun to play those characters as it would be to play opposite them, especially knowing that my partner enjoys my performance.
