Tuesday: Power Is Sexy
May. 20th, 2014 12:06 amHello, everyone. I’m
kryss_delrhei, pinch-hitting for the week. Today's theme is the Power is Sexy trope.
It is loosely described on tvtropes.org as:
What is it about power that can make someone weak in the knees? Perhaps it's the control issues, to be dominated by someone that's just more than you, or is it something that just brings out our primal lust?
"Power is the ultimate aphrodisiac." - Henry Kissinger
The rules still haven't changed:
- No more than five prompts in a row.
- No more than three prompts in the same fandom.
- No spoilers in prompts.
- If your fill contains spoilers, warn and leave plenty of space.
Prompts should be formatted as follows:
Fandom, Character+/Character, Prompt
Some examples to get the ball rolling...
- Dragon Age, Cullen/Carver Hawke, the one left in charge
- Kingdom Hearts, Xemnas/Saix, he didn't like being ordered around but spoken from the mouth of their Superior he could enjoy it to a small degree
- Darker Than Black, November 11/Hei, "Command me!"

Date: 2014-05-20 06:20 pm (UTC)Michael caught Fiona’s hand before it could land on his face in the form of a painful slap. It had been some time since he had seen her this angry, and while it could be a turn on he was just too tired deal with whole tirade. “It’s over. It’s done. I’m finished, Fi,” he quietly declared. “You win.”
Fiona heard the fatigue in his voice and she stopped trying to free herself from his grip. She took a step back and really looked at him. To her, he looked shattered and that was something he never let anyone see, not even her. “Michael?”
He gave his head a tiny shake before letting go of her wrist. He turned away to look out the kitchen window not wanting her to see how close he was to truly breaking into tiny pieces. The consequences of the decisions he had been making in the last few years were finally catching up to him and destroying everything he had been trying to protect.
Pushing her anger aside, she walked up to him and slid her arms around his waist resting her cheek against his shoulder. She didn’t say anything because nothing she said would change the difficult decisions of the past few years.
They stood that way for several long minutes, and then Fiona pulled away. She gently urged him to turn around. “Let’s go to bed,” she suggested.
“Fi,” Michael softly began. He wasn’t in the mood for sex despite his body’s reaction to her closeness.
“To sleep, Michael,” she gently replied. “We need that a lot more than we need the stress relief we get from sex.”
Michael huffed in amusement since she was right. He didn’t acknowledge that fact out loud and soon he was safely tucked in bed with her tightly wrapped around him. "Sweet dreams, Fi," he whispered as his eyes drifted shut safe in the knowledge that she would be there in the morning.
"You too, Michael," Fiona whispered in return. She gave him a squeeze and a peck on the cheek before settling down to get some rest herself.

John asks Harold for something. The fulfilment leaves them both somewhat shattered. (2212 words, dom/sub, blindfolds, h/c, mildly dubious consent - mostly because John was stingy with explanations before the fact)
