five acts

[black_hat]

Here's how it works:
1. Cut a hole in the box.
2. Post a list of your five favorite acts/kinks/themes/tropes to read about. Check out this list if you need some inspiration. At the bottom, add what fandoms/pairings you're interested in.
3. Go HERE and post a link to your list. Read other people's lists.
4. Write comment-fic (or longer pieces) based off of other people's lists. Post either the fic or a link to the fic in the person's post.

Here's a link for the overall meme: http://toestastegood.livejournal.com/550739.html





Five Acts
1. Situational engineering (the conscious or unconscious manufacture of events that give an emotional or sexual pay-off which can't be otherwise achieved; in particular, perilous situations; for example, character A puts himself in danger in order to receive fussy attention from character B; pay-off can be simply seeing someone, or hurt/comfort touching, intimacy, adrenaline sex, etc)-YES!!!
2 )Mindfuck, mindgames (yaayyyy!<333)
3) Tragic flaws
4) Trust and vows (promises are kept or broken; loyalty or betrayal; absolute trust or doubt; fidelity or infidelity; blindfolds or bondage as trust symbols; commitment or fear of commitment; acts of devotion; marriage vows; unconditional love; blood brothers and oaths; showing trust/faith in someone's abilities) (I love trust issues and showing faith in another's abilities ;-))
5). Emotional themes, emo-kink (angst; wallows; darkfic; emotional damage; psychological trauma; tragic pasts; broken characters; guilt and shame; mental instability; sadness and grief; abandonment or fear of same; characters who can't go home again; fear in general; nightmares; loneliness; broken-heartedness; failure; insecurity; self-hatred; self-mutilation such as secret cutting; suicide; see also Insanity)

Comments

Jason/Tim (DC), Emotional

[babydracky.livejournal.com]

“Get the fuck out of here!” spats Jason.
The man is sitting on the narrow bed in his little flat. Tim knew he will try to throw him away. A lost battle he’ll try to win. As usual.
“You know pretty well, I won’t go, Jay” gently answers Tim coming closer.
Tim knows that Jason hasn’t slept for days now. He can see it on his tense shoulders, he can see it in those torn lips, and he can see it in those empty stormy eyes.
It happens anytime Jason has to come too close to his murderer, every time he decided not to kill the Joker because he shouldn’t be the one finishing him off, not him, but Bruce.
Even if Jason is healed of his wounds, he is still broken inside. Deep bloody invisible wounds.
Death definitely would turn a man mad.
Tim gently puts his hands on the tense broad shoulders. Jason tensed even more, yelping like a wounded and cornered animal. Tim softly rubs against the warm skin to help him relax. Slowly, carefully, he takes place on the man’s lap.
“Don’t” whispers Jason.
“You know you want me to” hushes Tim, his gentle fingers playing with Jason’s shorter hair.
“Tim, just listen to me for once. I don’t want to hurt you anymore” Jason tries again.
“You know I want you to” smiles Tim.
He kissed the man before he could protest anymore.
Tim never complains about Jason’s rough ways, about those strong hands harsh handling him, about those lips punishing him for others’ crimes.
He doesn’t complain because even when Jason is violent when possessing him, he is always careful not to damage him, not to break him.
Jason needs the relief, Tim needs to be useful.
In the morning when Jason brings breakfast to Tim in bed, warm coffee with milk and toffee muffins, his very favorites, they never talk.
Jason never apologizes, never thanks with words.
Tim always pretends he didn’t hear Jason cried into his neck.
But they both know that when Jason is sleeping in Tim’s arms, the man never got nightmares.

<3 Thank you!!

I like how they fit together, even as broken as Jason is! It really worked, in this give-take way, and how Tim wanted to be useful. A SPOT-ON observation of their dynamic! Thank you for writing this for me!
