(Anonymous) 2020-09-07 11:51 pm (UTC)(link)Actually, I've never really considered that (not being sarcastic or anything). But sure, maybe that's a subset of the authors writing it. But I'm just looking for the other side (I usually end up writing the kind of fic I'm looking for if I can't find it. It's just nice to read something you don't already know since you made it ). I want a bratty sub, if we're going by those dynamics.
I would like to see a character who resists someone taking care of them for any/various reasons (pride, used to being the provider, trust issues, etc.) In a situation you could consider sugar daddy/sugar baby, but isn't explicitly so -- Character X is the friend of Character A's parents, and when A falls on hard times...that kind of thing. It doesn't have to be an explicitly "sugary" situation.
No shade to people who are in for it to see full service, as you said, I just gotta keep looking until I find what I want !
Re: OP
(Anonymous) 2020-09-08 12:08 am (UTC)(link)You might also consider making posts about it on whatever platform, being enthusiastic about what you like about it? Generally people respond better to that than "why do y'all always write the same old stuff."
Re: OP
(Anonymous) 2020-09-08 12:23 am (UTC)(link)Well, I'm flattered you find it hot lol perhaps I will write this...uhh do you have any pairings you'd like to see like that? I draw inspiration from many sources, and while my usual pairings are particular, writing for others sometimes gets the gears in motion!
I was definitely complaining lol phrasing can go a long way in getting what you want. I would Cross post, but between this and AO3, I'm not active on any platforms, alas.
Re: OP
Good luck finding your desired dynamic! Perhaps consider pairings that involve a tsundere type?
Re: OP
(Anonymous) 2020-09-08 12:25 am (UTC)(link)Yeah! It's like an itch that ALMOST gets scratched...
Thanks! I definitely will check out the tag -- always open to suggestions for media that has those dynamics to start as well, if you have any!

(Anonymous) 2020-09-07 11:57 pm (UTC)(link)I'm just tired of seeing the same demure female thrust into power imbalance with older wealthy man who wants to treat her being read as SUB that must be it! SUB! like the person can't be feisty, resist the care, etc. Which is totally fine, and generally the trope, it's just something I'm not looking for ATM within the trope. Shift in dynamics within the trope? I'm probably gonna have to write what I want to see lol

Re: OP
(Anonymous) 2020-09-08 02:33 am (UTC)(link)FS coming thru with the recs tonight! Thanks! I'm definitely going to check this one out!
Re: OP
(Anonymous) 2020-09-08 03:27 am (UTC)(link)That does sound interesting! I kinda like it myself. I'm curious if there isn't a lesser known trope that fits that subset? I don't know of any myself, but it fits in a subversion of sorts so I have to imagine the trope exists elsewhere? Bah, either way, I hope you find what your looking for OP! I feel we have so much 'write it yourself' opinions on here that they have to exist somewhere! Good luck!

(Anonymous) 2020-09-08 02:32 am (UTC)(link)No worries, thanks. I have walked into some mangas (and animes) I wish I was warned about, so anything mentioned here wasn't too bad! Lol Honestly, you had me with the first description, but the bits of "summary" are really the icing on the cake, so I have my manga for the week/however long it will take me to read!
Hmm.
(Anonymous) 2020-09-08 01:33 am (UTC)(link)I don't know how you feel about Hannibal or Will Graham/Hannibal Lecter (FBI profiler with issues and abilities that make him vulnerable/cannibalistic serial killer who likes to play mind games) in particular, but this series (https://archiveofourown.org/series/452866) by emungere might be up your alley.
Re: Hmm.(OP)
(Anonymous) 2020-09-08 01:51 am (UTC)(link)Yeah, I think dependency of the bat is a perfect way of explaining it. There's plenty of characters that would feel uncomfortable/reluctant to let anyone help them, much less take care of them (financially, emotionally, etc.). I'm glad to see I'm not alone in the deviation of this trope/kink.
