No preamble for this one, just gonna get right to it. Let's be real, the "wanted ad" part of this is what you're here for, it's the entire point of a request thread.

Request # 1

What

Final Fantasy XIV. AU-ish, some non-canon. Very slight personality alterations made, in that neither of them is a complete psycho/sociopath and thus capable of forming an actual bond. But make no mistake, their feelings for one another do not make them good people. A monster in love is still a monster.


Who

I'm looking for a Zenos

for my Yotsuyu.

(Ignore Grynewaht in the background there, nobody cares about him. He just happened to be in this image and it was the best one I could find.)


Where

DMs only, please. I'm self-conscious and don't like to have my writing on display for too many people to read. I'll use Discord for OOC talk, whether that's roleplay-related or just general conversation. I like to get to know the people I write with, I've made some good friends that way, and I find it makes it easier to become more comfortable with someone.

Plot


Forced into marriage at thirteen as a child bride with a man more than twice her age, then sold to a brothel only a few short years later after her husband's mysterious death, Yotsuyu's life has never been her own. Made to entertain and service men she hates for the last decade, she is not a person, but property; it is all she has ever known, and it has made her angry and bitter toward everyone she deems complicit in her suffering.

She has no love for her country or its people, who looked the other way when she needed help and either pointedly ignored her torment or deliberately contributed to it. Neither does she have any sympathy for the hardships and misery imposed upon them by Garlean rule. Her whole life has been spent under the boot of one man or another, her fellow Domans have not felt a fraction of the pain they inflicted upon her and do not deserve her pity.

Trapped in sexual slavery, Yotsuyu expects that she will continue to work as a prostitute until the day she dies, or until her beauty fades, whichever comes first. She plays her role well, as she has no other choice, but behind her soft voice and demure smile burns a hatred and longing for vengeance that no man could ever hope to smother.

Opportunity comes calling one day when a handful of men representing several high-ranking Garlean houses visit the brothel with a sinister purpose. They dislike the current emperor, and wish to remove him from the throne so they may replace him with one of their own lords, or one of said lords' heirs. Aside from the task of killing their ruler himself, however, there is still one problem...

Emperor Varis has a son. Should His Radiance die, the crown prince will inherit the throne, and should that happen, he will not be so easily disposed of. The prince is a beast, a one man army capable of slaughtering entire battalions without so much as losing his breath, and to engage him directly with or without one's intentions known would be tantamount to suicide. He is also cunning, too much so for an ambush to have any hope of success, which leaves only one avenue remaining.

The prince will soon come to the country and reside in the royal palace for foreseeable future, having been appointed by his father as viceroy of Doma. The most important houses of Garlemald will give him the gift of a courtesan, that he may enjoy the company of a woman who will entertain him in any way he so desires. This woman will obediently cater to his every whim, hang on his every word, and gain his trust...and once he has finally lowered his guard, when he least expects it, she will take his life.

Any woman stuck in this brothel would surely leap at the chance for a way out. Though there are many lovely women employed in this place, it is Yotsuyu they approach with their plan. She is by far the most beautiful, and easily the cleverest, and she will need beauty and brains both in order to succeed. If she can accomplish their goal, if she can assassinate the prince, they will make her the lady of her own high house in Garlemald, once their own man has been established on the throne.

Yotsuyu is no fool. She knows that killing a man like the crown prince is nigh impossible, and that if she is caught, it will be her throat that is cut. Even so, a chance is a chance, and she would rather die than spend the rest of her days as a whore. She wants out, and these men have made her an offer she cannot refuse.

"Kill Zenos yae Galvus, and you will go free."


Request # 2

The Fifth Holy Grail War: Redux
(Working title; subject to change)


I've been rewatching Unlimited Blade Works (and watching Zero and Stay Night for the first time, I'm going through the series in chronological order this time; about to start the Heaven's Feel movies and I hear they're a trip) and I am all about Fate right now. I'm looking for a long-term Rin x Archer (EMIYA) storyline, though I don't have anything particularly detailed in mind beyond writing our own version of the Fifth Holy Grail War. Ideally, the war will also be longer than the one to two weeks (if that) it took to complete in canon. I understand why it was such a short timeframe, but it felt too short to me. I do have some thoughts on a possible time loop mechanic which would, by its very nature, extend the duration of the war in a manner no Master or Servant would expect...

I'll happily play Saber/Artoria in a Saber x Shirou pairing as well as, but not instead of, Rin x Archer. I would actually prefer both, truth be told, but if I had to pick only one of these girls to play, it would be Rin. So, just to make it crystal clear, I will play Saber, but only if I get my Archer for Rin. You can have just Rin or you can have Rin and Saber, but you can't have just Saber. I also won't play either of them against other characters; it's Rin and Saber for Archer and Shirou, respectively. Not negotiable. If you're not interested in playing either of them, this ain't for you.

Tohsaka best girl. That is all.


Other Info

Since people have done this before, I'm going to say this up front: Please don't DM me to inquire about doing roleplays that are completely unrelated to this thread. I'm not looking for or interested in anything else right now; if I was, I'd have said so. I don't really dig "cold call" DMs even when I don't have a thread active, and I like them even less when I do. It bothers me. So please don't.

Literate+ only please. A good grip on the English language is a must; I had it drilled into me from the moment I could talk, so I consider myself very proficient. I'm not asking for perfection, typos happen and everyone makes mistakes. I'm not fussed about that when it happens. But if a person consistently has poor spelling and grammar, or can't form a coherent sentence, we're not going to work out. (Note: I'm Canadian, and therefore use Canadian/British English spellings for a lot of words. I.e. colour vs color, favour vs favor, etc. I don't care if my partner uses American spellings or Canadian/British English; my RP partner of seven years uses American English, so it's kind of an interesting little mishmash of u's and no u's and such. Adds character.)

As you'd expect from a Lit+ request, I will not work with one-liners or single paragraphs. The average post from me tends to have six or seven paragraphs; I prefer longer posts whenever possible, but I'm willing to work with shorter ones as long as they're not too short. I'd like to see five paragraphs at minimum, but if you're like me and like 'em longer, then have at it!

Regarding post frequency, I'd like someone who can post at least twice a week. More often than that would be fabulous, but I understand that people have lives and responsibilities and other things to do.

The real life gender of my partner doesn't matter to me; male, female, NB, I'm fine with anyone. I would, however, prefer my partner to be no younger than 24. That's the age of my youngest friend, and I'd just feel uncomfortable with anyone younger than that; I'm 32 and writing NSFW with anyone younger than that just makes me feel skeevy.

That said, I also don't do PWP (Porn without plot/Plot? What plot?), non-smut story and interactions are important to me, so if you're looking to jump right into the smut, or if that's the only thing you want, please pass on by. Similarly, if you only want something short-term, please don't engage. I only do long-term, no exceptions.

If for any reason you feel like we don't mesh well, please don't ghost me. I've had people do this before the first post was even written, or right after, and it's been disappointing, to say the least. Just tell me that you don't think things are working out. I'll probably ask why and want to see if it's something we can fix by talking about it, but I won't get angry or give you shit for it. Sometimes people just aren't a good fit and that's okay. There won't be any hard feelings on my end if you want/need to bow out.


Yes/No:
I do have a few hard limits. The items on the no list are things I will absolutely not agree to, they are always, always going to be a 100% NO no matter who's asking or why. Not negotiable. However, if it's not on the no list, (or the yes list, which comes after, and is not a complete list of everything I like, it's just a few of the things I enjoy more) feel free to ask me.


NO

Rape/Noncon (Semi-exception: Dubcon is okay, I actually like it under certain circumstances and if it's done well, but that's as far as I'm willing to go.)
Anything related to bodily fluids/excretions (Basically, if it's a bathroom thing that isn't an actual bath or shower, that's where it stays.)
Gore (In sexual situations only; anywhere else, it's fine.)|
Pregnancy/lactation (I am severely tokophobic, to the point where even typing those words makes me shudder. No. No, no, no, no, a thousand times no.)
Anal (Yeah, I know, a lot of people seem to think this is a staple and like it, but I'm not one of them. Instant turnoff. Not doin' it.)
Anything foot-fetish related
Cervical penetration (Not actually possible, and if it was, it wouldn't feel good, it would hurt!)


YES

Creampies
Wall sex
Semi-public places/risk of being caught
Deepthroating
Semi-clothed
Light bondage (Think immobilized wrists, limbs tied to bedposts, etc.)
Rough sex (Scratching, biting, pinning down, etc.)
Passionate, romantic sex (Don't have to play rough all the time, slow and steady is good too!)


Probably a lot more on the latter list that I've forgotten. Again, if you're unsure, just ask. Worst I can do is add it to the no list.

That's all for now. Hit me up if either of these take your fancy.

Does anyone on Blue Moon even play critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV? I'm beginning to think perhaps not.
 
Screw it, I'm doing the memes. Even if it doesn't bring in a partner, it'll amuse me. And the first one is even relevant to my request!
