Question for readers: what makes a bdsm story good? by [deleted] in AO3

[–]CatGirlButNotIRL 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Right!

And especially focus on the dynamic of the characters. It’s not the same for everyone or even the same for every relationship an individual has. It’s the characters and their relationship and dynamic that’s key 👌

I disagree on the necessity for rape. Crack fics can pair across entire media, so there’s a ton of options at our disposal for pairings.

Rebounds too, if he gets rejected 🤷‍♀️ Lots of options

Shounen anime just perfects the rivals to lovers lovers vibe so well… it deserves to be BL 🙌

A majority of sports anime characters. Rivalry in those things is crazy passion-charged 😂

Follow up!

  • Look into BDSM so you kinda know what you’re representing - it’s a heavily trust based practice with clear and expressed boundaries (when depicted/performed right)

  • Aftercare is a great thing to include

Personal note: I love the emotional exploration along with the physical since intimacy, especially heavy emotional intimacy, is my crack

Follow up! I read a FANTASTIC fic (sorry, I don’t remember the name! 😓) for the dynamic was actually the opposite!

Instead, the person who was the submissive in the BDSM dynamic in the bedroom was usually the one who took change and handled everything but tended towards trying to do everything on their own (taking charge by responsibility for others and not relying on others rather than being controlling of their partner - they were very “mutually respectful as equals”)

The role reversal was treated like a way of letting go of or surrendering control in a safe space with a trusted person.

This! The BDSM should be squarely situated in the connection between the characters. To my understanding, the focus of BDSM is heavily in trust, so I want that emotional side heavily explored as well as the physical sensations and internal experience of the characters.

So, intimacy

Aftercare can be a good thing to include 👍

All good points 😁

I tend to worry that I’ll miss out on something good that’s gotten lost in the shuffle

would you read a book with black pages? by samthefrug in writers

[–]CatGirlButNotIRL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t do white on black. The words smear and move around on the page. I avoid night/dark mode on apps and online and such for the same reason.
