Love Endures (A SV-Original Erotica Quest)

Question 1: What genders do you prefer? What are your opinions on trans partners? What pairings do you like? (I personally prefer women - cis or trans - having sex with other women.)
M/F - cis

Question 2: Would you prefer our heroine to be more submissive, more dominant, or a switch? (I'm a switch, so I tend to write switches.)
Submissive

Question 3: What physical characteristics would you like our heroine to have? (Height, build, age, presence or absence of cat ears, etc.)
Body shape never mattered much for me, although I do like tall women.

Question 4: What sexual characteristics would you like our heroine to have? (Are her cat ears sensitive? Does she have a penis, a vagina, or both? Does her cup size matter? Etc. )
Vagina, any cup size will do except unrealistically humongous breasts.

Question 5: If you were running this, what would be your top three candidates for our heroine's major kink? Keep in mind the limits the previous vote set. (No major equipment/connections needed.)
>Historical Role Play
>Bondage (ropes or chains)
>Light torture (no permanent marks, safe words)

Nos for me :
>anything unhygienic
>mind control
>psychoactive substances (including alcohol)
 
Haah.
Finally got some off time, so let's see...

The previous votes kind of put a limit on what I can ask for realistically, but hey, here goes nothing.

-Bondages
Especially ones in unusual positions, as well as people being bound together.
-Milking
Machine or by hand or direct sucking
-Slimes
Doesn't have to be sentient or even a living creature at all. Just, slimes.
-Cum Inflation
A visible, decently sizable bump is good enough by my book. Bigger the better, really, but not everyone's into that.
-Egg Laying
Into or out from someone both works. Object insertion in general, really, but eggs are round and less likely to hurt.
-Petplay
Not outright to the point of acting like animals, though. Bondaging preferably included.
-Exhibitionism/Voyeurism
Minor, but goes well with other kinks. Prefer for any consequences to be played off (relatively, at least) lightly, though.
-Teasing/Back-and-forth snarking
@Vocalend can attest to this being my no. 1 fetish
-Lovey-dovey and/or carefree couples
see above

And then there's the highly unlikely ones.
-Sex machine
Yeah I'm aware it was brought up in votes, but without equipment focus this isn't going to work out, probably.
-Non-amputation limb removal
Specific, yes, but I like the idea of it as an alternative to bondage.
Typically it's done with portal rings attached onto limbs, but there are probably other ways.
-Transformation
Hoo boy.
Almost any form of transformations that doesn't run afoul of what i listed below for 'do not want' is great.
Especially if it's a partial/unfinished one, where you can visibly see parts that are still human.
There are honestly a boggling number of transformation types so I won't go in depth there.
-Tentacles
Okay I'm not actually sure if tentacles are that unlikely but just to be safe
-Body modification
Referring here to the more egregious ones like adding/removing body parts, changing shapes, the likes.

In general, just fetishes that puts people into interesting/fascinating situations in life. Of course, both the situations themselves and how said person react are both what draws me in.

- What do you seriously not want?
Most of the 'absolutely not' stuff have been covered right there in the discussion start post, so there's that.

Of the more 'don't particularly like but can tolerate' side:

-Rough/Painful plays
Tend to hurt just by reading them. Probably just personal preference.
-Impregnation
even though eggs and cumflation are okay Feels like considering it as a fetish would be making light of what pregnancy really means, again, personal preference.
-Mind control
I presume mind break/identity death would be counted under permanent injury
Too implicitly scary to like.
-Chastity
¯\_(ヅ)_/¯ probably wont ever understand this
-Cuckolding, even if it's with consent
iunno it registers in my head as 'not cool' only

Question 1: What genders do you prefer? What are your opinions on trans partners? What pairings do you like? (I personally prefer women - cis or trans - having sex with other women.)
Either M/F or F/F. Cis or trans doesn't matter much to me as long as the body's fine and the mind's willing.

Would you prefer our heroine to be more submissive, more dominant, or a switch? (I'm a switch, so I tend to write switches.)
Switch, definitely. the ike-minded ones gather

What physical characteristics would you like our heroine to have? (Height, build, age, presence or absence of cat ears, etc.)
Cat ears are absolutely good but any non-human bits are great too. Not much other specifications other than an average to slightly curvy build, and 20s to early 30 age.

What sexual characteristics would you like our heroine to have? (Are her cat ears sensitive? Does she have a penis, a vagina, or both? Does her cup size matter? Etc. )
Either just a vagina or both. Bonus point if there's no balls. Cup sizes should stay in reasonable range (read: F at most and A at least)

If you were running this, what would be your top three candidates for our heroine's major kink? Keep in mind the limits the previous vote set. (No major equipment/connections needed.)
Oh man, this is hard. The limits kicked out most ideas I would otherwise go for.
1. Exhibitionism
2. Voyeurism
3. Sex Toys

Originally has Exhibitionism and Voyeurism packed together because they're IMO surprisingly close concepts, but I couldn't think of a 3rd feasible kink anyways so ¯\_(ヅ)_/¯

I would just like to re-emphasize that my PM box is always open. If you would prefer to tell me your preferences more privately, I'm absolutely fine with that.

Q1: I'd prefer there was at least one dick involved there one way or another. Otherwise, don't much care.
Q2: I'm down for a switch, all dom/sub makes it a bit tedious for me.
Q3: Less human the better. I'd be down for some cyber limbs.
Q4: Yes to all.
Q5: Roleplay, and I don't really know other two.
 
Little do you all know that @Evenstar is secretly collecting your kink data to sell for nefarious purposes. Stay woke, questers! :V

Everyone else has covered the stuff I might bring up, so I have to stick to shitposting for the time being. Consent is important, light bondage is kinky, blindfolds are hot. Preference is female (cis or trans) but I can appreciate male a bit more distantly and even more than appreciate if they're especially handsome/likeable.

How explicit can this actually get? Have SV's rules on sexual depictions in quests recently gotten a little lighter?

SV allows for some pretty explicit content considering Evenstar's past quest and the story Enthusiastic Consent where one of the protagonists turns her self into the other's sex slave through tech she made.

The big rule for sex on SV is no fucking minors, and as long as we all stay far away from that most of the things, people have been mentioning as their interests should be allowed.

The rule is basically "sexual content must be appropriately tagged, and load-bearing to the story." Kushiel's Dart is one of the examples given as acceptable.

This says volumes... if you're one of those who has had the good fortune to actually read Kushiel's Dart. It's not exactly Star Wars, y'know?

As someone who has actually read it: Kushiel's Dart is about an indentured professional courtesan, dedicated into the service of Namaah, goddess of pleasure. She is particularly prized because she is an anguisette. Translating from the fake-french fantasy worldbuilding, this means "extremely enthusiastic masochist." The first explicit description of sex is on page 81, and while that scene is vanilla save for the fact that it is a ritual occurring in front of an audience, later scenes become... very much less so.

Here's a demonstrative setting detail; each indentured courtesan bears a marque, a tattoo with a predefined number of solid-inked sections. For each [large amount of money] they earn, one section of their marque is inked. When the marque is complete, their debt is discharged and they are free to leave.

The narrative rather lingers over our heroine's tattoo sessions, and makes it quite clear how much she enjoys them.

In short: Kushiel's Dart is porn. It's well-written porn that works every single sex scene into a larger narrative surrounding our heroine's courtesan training, her forbidden love, her intrigues at court, and the eventual dischargement of her debt - but it's also totally an excuse to write a lot of erotica featuring a switchy, masochistic slavegirl.

Q1: As long as we have a sword and a sheath.
Q2: Switch
Q3: Early 20s, she's a virgin after all. Athletic and healthy body. No weirdness, just a regular human being we're dealing with here.
Q4: Vagina only, cute petite B cups
Q5: I like bondage and exotic, weird role play. The more intricate the scenario, the more exciting. Slavery is also fun.
 
@Vocalend can attest to this being my no. 1 fetish
I am called, and I will chime in. Mostly because I am intrigued by how far the envelope will be pushed for these sorts of Quests, so let's start.

I am Vocalend. I tolerate and enjoy a large number of kinks and fetishes because there's always something worthwhile to see about them. The descriptor is deliberately vague mostly because they aren't exactly something to be divulged in not-so-private company. The other reason is because a good number of them seems to be rendered invalid by the previous voting choices.

But I digress. Much like Zero, I enjoy an inordinate amount of teasing and snark to go along as prelude or in the middle of the act. The core appeal that I find and write in story is the feeling of partnership that burgeons into a fullblown romance/mutual attraction towards one another. I find that to be inordinately diabetes-inducing. Miscellaneous related fetishes on this range that I adore is petplay and bondage in some form (confinement might be a better word), amongst others.

Unlike Zero, I would vouch for some form of mind break or personality shift, to go along with the shift to mutual attraction. I understand that it's not exactly the taste of people around here, but it is for me.

Other than that, while I would enjoy a great number of kinks, some of them makes me feel leery. Not enough for me to drop it, but enough for me to skim through the sections that have those. Impregnation being chief amongst them, in the sense that the timeframe that I oft see is rushed or put as an inconsequential effect. I'd rather have none of it than have it done not well.

As for the five Questions...
Q1: Any is fine. I would be fine with a shape/gender-shifting or beings that do not have set genders and appear whichever way they choose. The inner filling is more important than the crust, so to speak.
Q2: Switch. No question about it.
Q3: To the exclusion of everything else, I am going to ask for cat ears. Enhanced pet play and teasing options that way. If not to the exclusion of everything else, having the heroine not too extreme in both height or build is my want.
Q4: Of course the ears have to be sensitive. Anything else defeats the point. I am neutral with whether there is a sausage, so to speak. And again, nothing too extreme in bust sizes.
Q5: Hard to answer this one mostly because I am limited by the designs made in the Quest. But I suppose rapid Switching would be on the first place, petplay and cosplay tying for second and third place.
 
Kink Negotiation: Checkpoint 2
Second checkpoint:
It looks like the frontrunners for our heroine's major kink are exhibitionism and impregnation/pregnancy play. Both, however, have multiple people who actively dislike them. We'll come back to this.

It seems fairly clear that our heroine is a Switch - most people want variety.

There seems to be a fairly general consensus that our heroine is both tall and physically fit. Though a few people are into elf ears etc, it seems pretty likely she's human. She's probably also "twentysomething" in terms of age.

As for sexual characteristics, it seems that there are two major camps - "vagina only" and "why not both". So we can be pretty sure our heroine has a vagina. The presence or absence of a penis is still undetermined.

As for pairings, it seems that most people are okay with trans partners, but there's a mix of people who want straight pairings, people who want gay pairings, and people who don't care. The easy answer here is that she's pansexual.

Now, back to the kink discussion.
My main takeaways here so far are that:
- Most people are pretty okay with my own personal likes and dislikes.
- Of things I might actually write accidentally, I want to avoid bondage and humiliation play.
- Most people are also more into dynamic dynamics than static ones.
- The number of potential romantic partners should be a number I can count on my fingers. Ideally one-handed.
- People want BOTH story AND smut. Which is good, because when I try to write porn without plot it turns into Mantle.

Regarding the central kink, I have decided to unilaterally make it Exhibitionism.


This is for a number of reasons.
1: There's a lot of wiggle room in it: it's a motivation (the desire to be seen) far more than a specific act.
2: It's one of the few kinks that has broad appeal to many readers.
3: It's a kink I've got nothing against, but haven't personally explored deeply. That means it'll be easier for me to get into our heroine's nervous headspace.
4: Pregnancy, the other frontrunner, has a number of issues:
  • If done realistically, it takes forever, and has unsexy consequences such as morning sickness. If not done realistically, it'll disturb the whole tone of the quest.
  • If our heroine isn't intersex, it'll inherently bias the quest in favour of partners with dicks.
  • Mantle already exists, and I'd like to differentiate this quest from it.
Similarly, I've unilaterally decided that our heroine has only a vagina.
This is mostly for reasons of consistent tone. We've already decided that:
1: Our heroine is human.
2: The tone is realistic but light.
3: The full consequences of weird shit will be explored.

Since I don't actually know much about real intersex conditions, and I'm unwilling to resort to magic this early, that means our heroine only has a vagina. (Sorry, @Terrabrand.)

Please complain about my flagrant abuses of power now, so that I know how to make things more comfortable for those of you who are on the losing sides of these two decisions.

I also accept compliments, concerns, and/or general comments.

In the meantime, have a side vote:

Where does our heroine's physical fitness come from?
[ ] She's a swimmer.
[ ] She's a mountain climber.
[ ] She's a dancer or other performing artist.
[ ] She's specifically into pole dance.
[ ] She's a blacksmith.
[ ] She's a mechanic.
[ ] She's a sailor.
[ ] She works in the middle of nowhere, so she has to walk everywhere.
[ ] She hasn't got her driver's liscence, so she gets everywhere by bike.
[ ] She practices a martial art, like Judo.
[ ] She does a combat sport, like Kendo.
[ ] Write-in. (Subject to approval.)
 
[X] She does a lot of intensive LARPing.

That is no-shit the reason why "Combat Sport" is up there: I was trying to think of a generic way to describe "She's in the Society for Creative Anachronism and whacks people with lengths of rattan for fun."

So yeah, approved.
 
[X] She's a mechanic.
[X] She's a blacksmith.

[X] She practices a martial art, like Judo.
[X] She does a combat sport, like Kendo.
Fixing machines is cool.
[X] She rows.

I love when women do things that aren't "traditionally feminine".

Well, I'm a bit late to things, but now I'm here and this seems very much worth weighing in on even if some stuff has already been decided.

Starting with my likes:
  • On the physical-appearances front, I'm pretty inclined towards what might be dubbed Traditional Feminity. Long hair, flowy dresses, smooth skin, et cetera. I also tend to like broadly fantasy-genre-coded humanoids along the lines of fairies, monster girls, particularly human-adjacent elementals, et cetera. (Catgirls fall into this general category, and warrant specific mention because I particularly like them.)
  • On the activities front, probably the most central of my kinks is vulnerability. Not necessarily helplessness, it doesn't specifically involve a restricted action-space on the part of the vulnerable party, but vulnerability in the sense of... having one's experiences significantly under the control of someone else in addition to whatever personal control one may or may not have over them. Teasing, orgasm denial, forced orgasms, pain, being physically moved around, et cetera. Adjacent to this, I also like begging and related forms of... acknowledgement of vulnerability, I suppose would be a way to summarize it.
  • Other kinks of mine which seem worth mentioning include mid-scene shifts in power dynamics, social conflicts with interesting maneuvers and risk-taking (a kink I find more often fulfilled by fantasy novels than by erotica, inconveniently, but which I could easily see showing up in the right sort of roleplay if the characters are so inclined), intense-but-ultimately-doomed struggles, exhibitionism, consensual nonconsent, and praise-kink stuff.
In terms of dislikes, putting aside anything already covered by your own list... I've got a general distaste for body fluids exiting their ordinary receptacles to any extent greater than (for example) the traces of saliva left behind after a kiss and other comparably-minimal cases. (So I am, for example, not a fan of lactation or ejaculation or the like.) While I don't object to their presence per se, I'm not a huge fan of phallic elements getting significant emphasis as such in sexual contexts, as in the "this character's penis is Interestingly Exceptional In A Fashion Worth Dwelling On" scenes that I sometimes encounter, or as in dildos' phallic nature being emphasized, or the like. Also, I'm not a huge fan of pregnancy or other effects which significantly alter the involved person's body-shape. None of these are hard nopes for me, but they're all things that I prefer, all else equal, to be nonpresent rather than present in any given scene.

(I'm not sure how much of this is still going to affect things, with the second checkpoint having come as I was writing this up; but it seems worth putting out there for whatever effect it does still have.)

Anyway, on the new vote:

[X] She's a swimmer.
[X] She's a dancer or other performing artist.
[X] She's specifically into pole dance.
[X] She works in the middle of nowhere, so she has to walk everywhere.
[X] She hasn't got her driver's liscence, so she gets everywhere by bike.
[X] She does a lot of intensive LARPing.
 
[X] She's a mechanic.
[X] She's a blacksmith.

Fixing machines is cool.

I love when women do things that aren't "traditionally feminine".

Write In:
[X] She served in the military and has kept up her fitness levels.

I did consider the military, but I'd rather not have to deal with potential weaponization of research or veteran's issues. Regrettably, that means this is a no.
 
[X] She does a lot of intensive LARPing.
[X] She works in the middle of nowhere, so she has to walk everywhere.
[X] She hasn't got her driver's liscence, so she gets everywhere by bike.


Giant dork added to the list.
And if tall, work dem legs
 
[X] She does a lot of intensive LARPing.
[x] She's a blacksmith.
[x] She's a mechanic.
[x] She's a sailor.
[x] She practices a martial art, like Judo.
[x] She does a combat sport, like Kendo.

Personally I chose not to do larping because if she ends up doing a lot of roleplay stuff in the bedroom and for work for that matter I'd rather her not also do roleplay for recreation.
If that makes sense?

There wasn't enough advocacy for cat ears? I'm surprised.

I'm disappointed by the lack of bondage, but I accept the necessity of accommodating other voters.

[X] She's a swimmer.
My first thought was that it meshes a little too well with exhibitionism, but on reflection I trust you not to let her become a one-note character.​
[X] She's a mountain climber.
[X] She's a blacksmith.
[X] She's a mechanic.
[ ] She's a sailor.
Is sailor even a real profession anymore?
[X] She practices a martial art, like Judo.
This would be my first choice; I'm mostly including the others in order to downweight the options I don't particularly care for.​
 
[X] She's a dancer or other performing artist.
[X] She's specifically into pole dance.
[X] She's a swimmer.
No bondage, that's a shame. Hopefully we can still explore the themes of vulnerability and trust, and roleplay.
