Dick Grayson/Slade Wilson (DCU)
i requested tags with the broad dynamics i like for these two — dubcon, manipulation, power struggles, all that good stuff. if i tried to tag all the kinks i'd be down to see with them, we'd be here all day, folks!!! as long as a fic hits these dynamics i will be into it, so i figured that i would leave the additional kinky stuff up to you, dear writer :) but if you would like some more tags and prompts, i am happy to oblige:
other tags from the set i'm into:
- more ~dynamics~:
- Banter as Foreplay, Competence Kink - Rivals Are Incredibly Turned On By Each Other's Talent, Grudging Arousal, Hate Sex Turns Unexpectedly Tender, Reluctant attraction - sexual attraction to someone they (should) dislike, Intense Sex After Prolonged Self-Denial, Sex Chicken - 'I won't back down first!' mentality leads to sex
- more situations:
- Bad Guys Made Them Do It, Bad guys think they made them do it but they really just enabled them, Dubcon - Fake Noncon To Prevent Real Noncon By Others, Undercover - Sex to Maintain Cover Identity
- and now just some plain ol kinks tags:
- Degradation, Degrading Praise, Dirty Talk, Dub/Noncon - Victim Mouths Off and Makes Things Worse for Self, Forced to beg, Forced to Confess Sexual Fantasies to Desired Partner, Humiliation - verbal humiliation for obvious arousal
- Breeding Kink, Breeding Kink - as dirty talk without risk
- Orgasm Control, Orgasm Control - forced to beg to come but still not allowed, Orgasm Delay, Orgasm Denial
- Fear Play, Rough Sex to Stave Off Other Violent Urges, sparring leads to sex
also plugging my general likes list at the bottom of this post— sladick is my main ship right now so it was basically written with them in mind!
fandom-specific DNWs: fluff, bottom slade, 100% good slade or 100% evil slade, woobified dick (i like it when they're on at least a somewhat level playing field!), no capes AU
Original M/M
i requested all the relationship and freeform tags together in case anyone wants to mix and match in some fun ways, but in my mind i've split this into two somewhat distinct flavors —
undercover shenanigans: Enemy King/Undercover Spy, Male Mob Boss/Male Undercover Cop Infiltrating His Organization, Superhero Undercover at a Sex Club/Supervillain Who Recognises Him
- to me these are so ripe for putting the undercover character in increasingly dubious scenarios under the guise of keeping their cover — even though the other guy probably already knows what's up and is using that against him 👀
- all situations where one character has absolute total control over another — but because i'm not requesting straight non-con i'd like to see this with some kind of twist! what makes it dubious? did the prince offered as a tribute volunteer because he has past history with the warlord? does the hero offer sex only for the villain to decline (and maybe now he has to admit to himself he's a bit disappointed)? does the rebel manage to negotiate some kind of bargain with the elf? definitely don't feel bound by this, would love to see whereever else you take these prompts :D
Original F/F
Female Suitor Sent As An Insult To Ruling Monarchs/Princess Uninterested In Male Suitors
this prompt grabbed me by the neck and refused to let go. i know there's a sweet and wholesome way this prompt could be taken, but my mind immediately went to the less-savory places this could go...
- is the suitor aware she's being used as an insult?
- is she in on it, and a gleeful participant in the plot to humiliate the princess? does it work, or do the tables turn against her?
- is she not in on it, and just a pawn for some larger powers at play? why is she able to be manipulated like that? maybe she's a being blackmailed, or needs safety for some reason.
- is it equally humiliating for the both her and the princess? (this is where i think the "mutual dubcon" and "bad guys made them do it" prompts could get real juicy... maybe there's some kind of ritual they have to partake in? maybe they're trying to avoid a war?)
- or is it out of the frying pan, into the fire? is the princess equally manipulative as the people who sent her?
- what about the princess? does she even know herself why she's uninterested in male suitors, or does the arrival of the female suitor awaken something in her?
- does the insult work? is she resigned to her fate, or is she angry? does she decide to take revenge by humiliating the poor suitor right back?
- does the insult not work? maybe part of the insult is that the princess is expected to take on a traditionally-gendered wife role to her suitor (to honor and obey, etc.) "yeah, she's hated that stipulation for her male suitors," the would-be-insulters think. "she's gonna really hate this, right?!"
all the deliciously fucked up dynamics aside, i'd like for them both to be into it, however grudgingly or angrily that may be :)
General letter
SFW likes:
- enemies to lovers — hero/villain, rivals, etc. i love this in any way, from a lightly teasing, banter-y frenemies dynamic to a mortal enemies, i-will-kill-you-or-die-trying thing, and anywhere in between
- imbalanced power dynamics — captor/captive, older/younger, nobleman/peasant for some straightforward ones, but i also love it when there’s more than meets the eye: role reversals, emotional dynamics that are mismatched or opposite to the power dynamic, the less-powerful character finding ways to exploit the one in power, etc… basically, the more social, emotional, and situational factors that add spice, the merrier!
- complex, messy relationships in general! give me all the fraught past history, the flip-flopping feelings, the power plays, the reluctant attraction, the dysfunction, the manipulation, the mind games, the possessiveness, the obsessiveness, a beautiful mix of both, the betrayal, the forgiveness, the unfounded fear and unexpected mercy. yum!
- mutual respect, competence kink — though i love when characters get to hate each other, i also love when they strongly respect one another despite that! i also like when they can hold their own against one another — ie if there’s an imbalanced power dynamic, it’s more because of the situation (someone is injured, held captive) or a social dynamic (boss, professor) rather than an imbalance of skill, strength, intelligence, etc.
- “forced proximity” tropes — one bed, trapped together, snowed in, assigned on a case together, political arranged marriage, all that good stuff
- UST-heavy scenarios — situations where characters can’t (or won’t) resolve what is obviously blazing hot sexual tension. because it’s socially improper, because they (supposedly) hate each other, because they’re undercover, because they’re on an important mission that they can’t compromise, etc
- pining — on that note, also yes to straight-up pining, especially mutual pining. “they’d never look at me twice if it wasn’t for this arranged marriage,” “i can’t risk disrupting this fraught peace we’ve finally established,” all that good good
- identity porn — undercover stuff, secret identities, etc
- banter, snark, fighting-as-flirting
- sex/relationship chicken — pride, competitiveness, an “i won’t back down first!” mentality leading to escalating intimacy
- morally gray characters who are allowed to stay that way
- happy/hopeful endings
smut likes:
- dubcon of all kinds — from milder forms like sex pollen, to imbalanced power dynamics where consent can’t be freely given (ie captor/captive), to coercion or blackmail or manipulation, to situations where consent isn’t discussed at all (ie fights that end in fucking), even up to situations that may need to be tagged for noncon. all yummy to me
- humiliation, dirty talk, degradation — this is like, THE kink for me. i can be into basically anything that is used for the purposes of humiliating someone. especially love it when characters are reluctantly into something and feel ashamed about it; when they’re forced to admit or show just how into it they are — or better yet, to beg for it >:)
- physical control and resistance — struggles for power, needing to be threatened (gun/knife kink anyone?) or restrained in order to submit
- under/un-negotiated kink — in general i think it’s fun when it’s in the heat of the moment. take something like bondage — BIG yes to tying someone up with a belt, gagging them with their clothes, etc, versus characters buying a shibari kit, for example. kink discovery, when characters learn for the first time that they are really into something, is fun too!
- outwardly non-sexual dominance and control — stuff like making a character shine boots, corporal punishment, handcuffing someone as part of an arrest… and the character is kinda into it. (and, god, they’re so weird for that, right?! but, wait, is the character punishing them also into it too..?)
- “frog boiling” — the slow burn pushing of boundaries, manipulation, gaslighting, escalation into increasingly kinky but plausibly deniable scenarios that a character only realizes late in the game… yum
- other rapid fire kinks i’m into: orgasm delay/denial, breeding kink, chastity devices/cock cages, mild feminization, watersports
really, when it comes to specific kinks i can be into almost anything that’s used to control or humiliate a character 🙈 as long as it’s not in my hard DNWs, go crazy with it! and i mean that!
on the fence:
these aren’t true DNWs, but they’re things i am generally not super into, or have some kind of difficult preferences for
- established relationships and fluff — complex “established” relationships, though, like an enemies-with-benefits thing, or arranged marriages with mutual pining? that’s cool with me!
- soulmates — it’s fun when it causes problems, but i generally don’t prefer reading soulmate fic where it fixes them!
- mundane AUs — no superpowers for characters that usually have them, no magic for a world that usually has it, coffeeshop AUs, etc
- het femdom — i dunno, man, i love it but i am weirdly particular in ways i find hard to articulate lolol. disregard this one for spuffy tho. i am always into femdom spuffy 🫡
- negotiated kink, CNC — honestly i guess i just prefer it in the heat of the moment
hard DNWs:
- underage, ageplay
- high-protocol BDSM
- straight up non-con where the victim never feels desire or reciprocates at all (though it’s ok if it either starts out or ends that way!)
- unrequested gender/sexuality changes, including genderbends
- daddy/mommy kink
- the spelling “cum”
- scat, vomit
- extreme gore
- main character death
common DNWs that i’m explicitly OK with: omegaverse, fantastical or historical AUs, monsterfucking, bodily fluids, and seriously i mean it when i say i can be into basically any kink as long as it plays into the things in my smut likes
