THE CAPTIVITY MEME

You've been captured -- or maybe you've been held captive for a while now. Whatever the case, you've lost your freedom, and there's a specific person responsible for that. You might be a prisoner, a mental patient, a kidnap victim, or someone's pet. Maybe you're there willingly, or maybe the choice has been taken away from you completely.

 

Both smut and non-smut scenarios are possible. If you don't want to play smut, please indicate so in the title line of your tag.

 

1. Leave a tag with your character. Be sure to include any limits on what you are willing to play, as this meme has the potential to be triggering.

2. Someone else tags in and uses RNG to generate a number between 1 and 9. The second character is holding the first character captive now.

3. ???

4. Profit!

 

Scenarios

 

1. For their own good. Does this person really think they could make it on their own? It's a big, scary world out there, and you need to protect them from it, whether they like it or not.

 

2. For the good of society. Forget protecting this person -- it's your duty to protect the world from them! Maybe they committed a terrible crime, or maybe they were falsely condemned, but it's your job to keep them locked up where they can't do any more harm.

 

3. Because they're not well. How's your bedside manner? Whether you're Florence Nightingale or Mildred Ratched, you're in the position of ministering to the mentally ill. Maybe this person genuinely needs your help, or maybe you're just turning a blind eye to their true sanity.

 

4. For the money. Higher aims? What higher aims? This person is your meal ticket, and they're staying put until their loved ones pay up.

 

5. For their love. It might be a case of yandere, or it might be a consenting BDSM relationship. Whether it's by mutual agreement or by force, you're keeping them simply because you love them.

 

6. Because they're cute and fluffy. Who's a cutesy wutesy? They are! Yes, they are! This person is your pet now. Maybe they're a different species from you, or maybe you just don't care that you're both people. Maybe you're even an alien zookeeper looking after a new acquisition.

 

7. Because they're your property. Slave? Livestock? Who cares what they think - they're your property, and you decide their fate.

 

8. For the lulz. Hey, what's a little bondage between friends? You'll let them go, once you're done laughing and snapping photos... maybe.

 

9. Choose a scenario, or combine several.

4 - WE BOTH HAVE RED HAIR LET'S GO

[afishoutofwater]

[UMMM enjoy being tied up in fishing lines!? For the record, I tie a mean knot, you know.]

I— I did it...!

sounds legit

[meteorboy]

Ah...?

[afishoutofwater]

[Ooooookay! And now that that's done, let me sloooowly get down on the ground in order to give you the most sincere of bows]

Sorry!!

[meteorboy]

[seems pretty calm all things considered]

I'd be more inclined to accept those apologies if I understood what's going on, exactly.

[afishoutofwater]

[Ahhh right, you probably wouldn't know. That someone put him up to this and offered him to funds necessary for his fishing gear, and that being the type of person he is, he saw no other option. He didn't ask for the details. He didn't even know what to do next. Just...

There wasn't any way to articulate this. Despite being the criminal in this case, he certainly seemed to be the one struggling and getting all worried.]

U-um...!

[meteorboy]

...

Please calm down. I'm sure this is just a misunderstanding, so you don't need to worry.

[afishoutofwater]

[WHAT

A misunderstanding!? You're the one who's misunderstanding here! Even if you don't get the reasons, isn't it clear what's happening!? He's a bad guy!!! Why are you...

ahhhhh]

I can't do this after all!

[and his shaking fingers reach out to undo the knots, but— he can't calm down enough to loosen them]

[meteorboy]

I'm not going to call the police, as long as you tell me why you did this.

Your eyes don't look like those of a criminal. Did someone ask you to do this...? Are they after father's money...?

[afishoutofwater]

[Wh-What are you actually really rich? Is that what this is about? I guess I wasn't given all the details, either...

but yeah totally averting eye contact]

I'll... I'll find another way...!

[this is totally an answer]

[meteorboy]

Ah... I see, so you were in a tough situation.

[afishoutofwater]

[NO NOT REALLY, STOP MAKING ME FEEL WORSE]

[meteorboy]

I don't mind waiting, but if you could free my hands already...

My name is Kiyama Hiroto. Yours...?

[afishoutofwater]

[o-okay I'm working on it 8'( gahhh my hands got all sweaty from getting so nervous I'M SORRY]

Sa— Sanada... Yuki.

[meteorboy]

Ah, I see. It's nice meeting you, despite these circumstances, Sanada-san.

Have you calmed down a bit?

[afishoutofwater]

Y-yes.

[no]

[b-but there, your hands should be free now]

[meteorboy]

[massaging his wrists for a moment, then offering his hand to him]

It's no problem, Sanada-san. Like I said, I won't call the police, so you can rest easy.

[afishoutofwater]

[I-Is it all right to take your hand? I mean, I tied you up and all! I was about to leave you for who knows what! A-And not to mention, my hand is pretty sweaty and gross. That's bad manners, isn't it? But then, it's bad manners to refuse a handshake even more, isn't it? BUT THEN, IT'S BAD MANNERS TO ATTEMPT A KIDNAPPING, RIGHT? OH MY GOD HELP

I'M SORRY TO JUST BE STARING AT YOUR HAND LIKE THIS]

[meteorboy]

... Sanada-san?

[afishoutofwater]

[GOD I CAN'T LIKE WIPE OFF MY HAND FIRST, THEN YOU'D KNOW THAT I KNOW IT'S GROSS. OR MAYBE YOU'D THINK THAT I THINK YOUR HAND IS GROSS BUT I SWEAR THAT'S NOT THE CASE WHY IS THIS THE HARDEST DECISION OF MY LIFE I DIDN'T ASK FOR ANY OF THIS I'LL NEVER KIDNAP AGAIN I PROMISE BUT DESPITE THAT I STILL HAVE TO GET THIS OVER WITH DON'T I OKAY HERE I GO GRABBING YOUR HAND PLEASE DON'T HATE ME

I'm also sorry for how terribly firm my grip is]

[meteorboy]

[shaking his hand!!]

I see, so you're a naturally nervous person.

[afishoutofwater]

[HE COULD TELL JUST BY A HANDSHAKE!?]

A-ah...

[meteorboy]

[more like the sweat and everything else really]

A teammate of mine used to be just as shy and nervous.

[afishoutofwater]

[I don't know what you're talking about 9_9]

T-Teammate?

[meteorboy]

[nodding]

Have you ever played soccer...? It's fun.

The teammate I'm talking about is one I met during the world championship. Utsunomiya Toramaru.
