Dear BDSM Exchange Creator,

Hi! Thanks so much for creating for me.

I was excited to learn about this new exchange, because while I enjoy all kinds of kink, it’s often hard to find stories that scratch my itch for the kinds of kink practices, protocols and history that you find in a lot of IRL BDSM communities. Whether or not those kinds of communities are explicitly included in the story—it doesn’t always fit with the canon—I enjoy things like negotiation (talking about hot things can itself be so hot - it doesn’t have to be rote!), characters checking in with each other, taking care of each other when things don’t quite work as planned or there is emotional aftermath … very very much. I’m very into things like honorifics, defined scenes (in the kink sense) when people take on roles/fall into headspace within those delineations, and so forth.

I also have a huge thing for cathartic kink, for characters (especially strong/stoic/leader characters) getting a chance to let go, give up control, process emotions and trauma, and feel protected/under the control and care of someone else, through the medium of bondage, pain or submission. There’s a lot of that in here.

And, I enjoy non-sexual and non-sex-centric kink quite a lot! I also love hot, filthy porn! Basically, with most of these requests, I’d be equally happy with a focus on the one as the inclusion of the other.

I won’t ramble further, I think, at least in general terms … I’ve offered a mishmash of prompts and ideas below, to varying degrees of specificity, for you to play with if you would like (but as always, that’s up to you). I have some general thematic and smut likes over here in a separate post, but I’ve put together some DNWs specific to this exchange. Thanks again, so much. I hope you have fun with this!

    Thoughts/prompts:
    I hardly know where to start with what I love about this pair. The absolute loyalty? The butch/femme hotness of it all? Their deep intimacy and bantering, flirtatious established relationship? Haruka being an outrageous flirt who dazzles all the girls, and Michiru behind her being quietly, elegantly and confidently in control (and ready to dish out some enjoyable consequences if that’s what they both want)? I see them as having a an established dynamic, and while I wouldn’t object to a few words of negotiation (and I’m highly in favor of the use of the traffic light system - Michiru pausing to murmur “color?” Haruka breathlessly answering “green” - it seems appropriate for a race car driver), I think most of that can be taken as long since pre-arranged.

    Some ideas to play with:
  • all the covert public kink! At a nice restaurant for date night, in the car at a romantic outlook AFTER dinner, at a gallery showing for Michiru’s work or once of her concerts, even at one of Haruka’s races … orders quietly given, use of remote-control vibrators, shoving Haruka into a quiet corner or back against her car seat while Michiru pulls out the packable strap-on she was made to wear all night … yum.
  • The pair attend a fancy high-protocol event, complete with dinner where the subs serve their doms, and then … dessert. Collars, titles, exhibitionism, the whole nine yards.
  • in art, all the shibari (nude, over clothes, under clothes), kneeling, Michiru proprietarily enjoying Haruka’s body and showing her off …

    Thoughts/prompts:
    I’ve enjoy Haruka’s outrageous flirting with the Inners, Usagi in particular, and the very flustered responses she gets. (Also, Michiru’s proprietary amusement, whether scolding her or subtly joining in/egging her on.) I’m envisioning an affectionate initiation sort of scenario - the Outers are loyal to Usagi, and she’s also an irresistibly adorable and naive little thing who comes to them for advice and perhaps more.

    I’d enjoy a dynamic where Michiru directs Haruka in topping Usagi, or one where the pair share power more equally; either works! I’d like it to be fully consensual and handled with mutual (three-way) affection and care, in either case.

    Some ideas:
  • Usagi very deliberately goes to Haruka and Michiru for “advice,” knowing in at least general terms what she’s really asking for. They are happy to oblige. Possibly with a bit of an instructional/teacher-student roleplay angle.
  • Haruka & Michiru give Usagi a ride; she feels excited and nervous as she often does when alone with them, the conversation turns suggestive, and they’re on a lonely stretch of road overlooking the ocean … It just so happens that there’s a bag stashed in the trunc with some rope and maybe a toy or two …
  • In art, again, all the shibari (especially suspension in this case!), Usagi riding Haruka’s strap-on while Michiru plays with her hair/fondles her/holds her hips to help control the pace …one of them tying on a blindfold while the other just starts to undress/grope her …

    Thoughts/prompts:
    Queer adventurer/villain/mutant activist wives. I mean. <3 After being editorially closeted for decades, they deserve some joy and sexy times. (And unwinding via kink after a hard day of machinations and murder!)

    With this pair, I’m always especially interested in stories set in their long history, especially in the early/mid-twentieth century (and on either side of the Atlantic). Historical nerdery (and historical kink practice/culture nerdery) delights me!

    Some ideas:
  • Raven is certainly an aggressive person, while Irene often comes off as more reserved; I’d very much enjoy seeing that dynamic reversed in private. I imagine Raven as a service/submissive top.
  • For art, I’d especially enjoy anything playing with historical fashion/hair styles/lingerie/sex toys … I have a great fondness for vintage pinup photography (and art), which might be fun to play off?

    Thoughts/prompts:
    I’m really fond of this triad (so much better than the love triangle). Logan and Jean have always had a spark, while Logan and Scott have (somewhat hard-won) mutual respect and complimentary strengths .., and Scott and Jean at their best-written have an incredibly strong, functional partnership homed by years of trial (not the least of which was their shared adolescence, or those years they spent in the future coparenting Cable.

    I found myself imagining a pre-polyamory scenario where Scott and Jean semi-accidentally wind up topping Logan as a form of caring for their friend (who can’t trust or feel comfortable enough to open up and be that vulnerable most of the time, or with both people). And then … feelings? Perhaps? I confess that with this grouping, I’m a lot more interested in the power dynamics, catharsis and affection than fucking or orgasms. I don’t object by any means, but would rather not have the focus there.

    Art thoughts: a bound, blindfolded Logan kneeling at Scott and Jean’s feet while they sit together on the couch, leaning down to pet his hair or back. A close-up of a snarling, blindfolded (or not) Logan in restraints as Jean grasps his chin and stares commandingly at him/into his eyes (maybe with accompanying telepathic signature), while Scott, behind him, grasps his upper arms firmly and kisses his shoulder/upper back

    Kitty Pryde tops Rachel Summers

    Freeforms:
    Aftercare / Cathartic Submission / Collar - leather collar/choker / Consensual Kink That Mirrors Prior Trauma / Consensual Non-Consent / Dom being genuinely affectionate & loving while punishing sub / Dom refuses to grant sub the punishment they think they deserve / Domming to Allow Safe Emotional Release for Sub / Kink Discovery - Sub enjoys praise kink / Kink Negotiation - Bondage / Kink Negotiation - Power Exchange / Masochism / Painplay - Calibration / Scenario - Attempted consensual non-consent; Dom can't overcome instinct to stop when sub resists / Service Domination / Smut - Markings - Affectionate Bruising/Marking / Sub Ashamed of Their Desires / Submission as a display of trust / Submission used as a coping mechanism for trauma / Traffic Light System

    Thoughts/Prompts:
    This pair is one of my longest-standing, most ironclad OTPs. I have some feelings about them sharing catharsis and caretaking through kink, as related to Rachel’s traumatic history. The fact that her terrible past comes with so much BDSM coding makes me want to see her in more positive, healing kinky scenarios; and she and Kitty have such a deep, trusting, intimate connection, complete with psychic link. (I go back to this one scene in Excalibur #75 where Rachel actually brings Kitty into her traumatic memories, and yeah.)

    I’d prefer a story set when Kitty herself is at least 17 or 18, but you can play fast and loose with how that matches up with their various teams/eras/etc, as you like. Maybe not Rachel’s earliest days with the X-Men, but … Excalibur, as teachers at the Jean Grey school, on Krakoa … creator’s choice.

    Ideas:
  • I’d love a story where the focus is on the aftercare as much as the play; Kitty cleaning Rachel with a warm or cool washcloth, snuggling her, playing with her hair, talking her back to herself (whether aloud or over their link).
  • I love shibari/rope bondage as a method of creating relaxation, rhythm, a sense of security, or easing a submissive into subspace, and that could be really lovely here. Impact or pain leading to subspace is great too. So is forcing the sub to agree to positive things about herself.
  • A scenario in which Rachel is putting on a cocky/cheerful attitude, but Kitty can see through it and insist on doing something about it in private,might suit very well. A little humor or banter to lighten things at the beginning and/or end is always good with this pair.
  • Art showing an aftercare scene (Kitty snuggling Rachel/petting her hair, with visible rope or impact marks?) would be lovely, as would a mid-scene image with ropes being tied or suspension (I wonder if one could play with Phoenix symbolism/posing there?), or impact … with an ecstatic/cathartically broken-down expression on Rachel’s face maybe?

    Thoughts/prompts:
    Yeah, so I can see these two going either way, which is awesome, but with my thing for cathartic kink I’m especially into the idea of Ed subbing and having to let go/let himself be taken care of. Another way of having (metaphorical) softness in his life, even if it comes with pain.

    On the other hand, intensity and feelings aside, I love the comedic aspects of the show and their interactions too, and playing with that, or a mix of both, in a BDSM context could be delightful.

    Some thoughts, largely free form-inspired:
  • Ed has already topped Stede a time or two, but Stede picks up on a poorly-suppressed desire for submission on Ed’s part. He wants to help, and though he’s maybe a little nervous/inexperienced … he finds himself responding, finding he has a domspace he can access with Ed. Ed, meanwhile, may have some bad past experiences to get past?
  • Amidst a joyful new relationship exploratory phase, they decide to try some kind of roleplay, with amusing and faily results (but a good time is had by both nonetheless!)
  • Art thoughts: Stede is a quick study on rope work! Ed tied to Stede’s bed or other furniture with ~fine fabrics. Mmm, wax play. Lots of candles about in that era, still - easy enough to appropriate!

    Thoughts/Prompts:
    Ugh I love these two and I want more of them together. Jim would make such a bratty, mouthy sub who could really use some cathartic pain/being put in their place, and Jackie a fabulous, regal femme dom … but toppy!Jim showing off their skill with knives and Jackie enjoying the hell out of every brush and prick of the blade, letting go of some of that control for just a bit … so hot. I just want a fun, hot story or drawing where this pair lets off some steam! Either power configuration, including switching partway through, is a yes please.

    Thoughts/prompts:
    I definitely have a thing for that whole scenario where a supervillain who isn’t really that terrible of a person, just really jaded about the rule of law and stuff, is unwillingly concerned about and compelled by a brash, inexperienced and adorable hero who is in danger of getting in over their head. (Sure, fine, I’ll be your nemesis. Focus on foiling me and not Lord Stabby McTorturepants over there.) It feels like a dynamic that could be pushed in a BDSM direction very easily!

    Combative banter-turned-admission-turned negotiation while at least one party is already painfully aroused … sounds like a fun time.

    Ideas:
  • the supervillainess notices that this heroine keeps winding up, well, in her clutches. Maybe a little TOO easily? She talks a good game about foiling dastardly schemes and all that, but maybe there’s something else she’s looking for out of these encounters …
  • the supervillainess is at a BDSM club, in secret identity (or it’s a club where everyone wears domino masks or something), and she sees the heroine, who is undercover because she thinks the club is a front for something … and in the process is really really obviously a newbie (and getting interest from other patrons), and clearly both super embarrassed and unexpectedly turned on. The supervillainess is intrigued.

    Thoughts/Prompts:
    Another intriguing take on the hero/villain dynamic!in this case, I’m rather imagining both characters attending a party/event, and at some point (right away? after already hitting it off/starting to talk possible play?) recognizing each other as her former nemesis. A whole new (consensual) take on an old dynamic …

    Thoughts:
  • the hero picks up the villain at a club, because she’s flagging for something appealing (black/SM, grey/bondage, red/fisting, light pink/dildos, etc). Maybe she recognizes her as soon as she turns around, and is surprised to find she’s even more into the idea now. Maybe they find a quiet corner and start talking activities and limits, and something is nagging at her … maybe the villain turns on the domme voice as they get ready to start playing, and suddenly she RECOGNIZES it…!
  • the hero and the villain have already met up and played, purely casually, at some parties. maybe they’re open with each other about their identities, or maybe they’re both pretending they don’t know. It’s just play. They’re compatible, but … feelings would mean they actually had to discuss their history …

    Thoughts/Prompts:
    The classic Captain/ship devotion, with both parties sentient and some power dynamics in the mix, yes please. Whether you see it as role reversal, or the Captain always being in service to the ship (rather than truly in charge) and this just being an extension of that … or the ship caring for its hardworking Captain who doesn’t make time for other relationships/care … yeah.

    I’d be really interested to see how you might handle this without any kind of physical avatar for the ship, in particular. The Captain’s awareness of the ship surrounding her … and the ship’s voice giving orders and instructions … I think that could make for some lovely eroticism. I also threw in one of the ND tags because that’s another take on kink as catharsis that I find appealing (being ND myself, and having been in kinky relationships with other ND people). And for a character with some sensory differences, for example, a lover who doesn’t physically touch you as such has some interesting possibilities
