Anna felt an odd sensation roll over her mind and body, a soft noise sounding in the back of her throat that was half panic, half protest.. but there was nothing that she could do.
“..Of course. I am loyal to you,” Anna spoke, her tongue feeling thick in her mouth
“Holy fucking shit IT WORKED!” Victor crowed, jumping around his Dad’s lair.
Jabbing a finger at his Dad’s mate bitch, he demanded, “WHAT’S MY NAME?”
Anna blinked slowly, frowning, “..Victor,” She answered, the confusion in her eyes showing clearly. She didn’t know why it was Victor decided to ask the question he did.
“Noooooooooooo, it’s your -fucking- majesty, Queen Victor the FIRST!”

[Wayne isn’t quite sure what to say to some of that, nor is he exactly sure what the reception to his opinion will be. It’s strange hearing a Megamind complain about the Game. Sure, Syx isn’t planning on quitting at present, but with issues like that, it doesn’t sound like a career change is that far off. It also doesn’t sound like a super healthy relationship.]
[Turning his back to the pair so that they can’t see is his mask slips, he sets about making up his own plate of pancakes consisting only of blueberry pancakes.] Have you guys considered talking things out? If both your professional lives and your personal lives aren’t going as smoothly as they were before, it might be best to try to figure out what changed or what you can change. I’ll admit that I’m no expert on dating Megamind, but I do know a few things and, well, I’ve also been getting some… perspective on various matters.
“Talking is good,” Harrison agreed, gesturing with his fork before stabbing another bite of pancake barely visible under the pile of whipped cream.
“Communication is important in relationships. But if he’s going to be a jerk, there are plenty of other heros in the sky. You can always try battling with another Metro Man or one of the city’s other costumed super types.
See how he likes you playing the game with someone else. I could probably put a good word in for you with the best Metro Man in town,” he drawls, winking at Wayne. There had been had several long talks with his mate about Syx before this meeting and knew that Wayne would love to battle the new blue villian…. partially to defend the city and partially as a sort of foreplay.
Syx hunched his shoulders as he chewed on his lower lip, “I don’t need to prompt any more jealousy from Wayne. He’s jealous enough as it is,” he sighed and poked his pancake again, “I have fought other heroes… but it… wouldn’t be the same,” he wasn’t sure how he even felt about staging a battle that was outside of ‘the game’.
“And Wayne doesn’t want to talk. He shuts down every time I try,” he continued bitterly, finding it easier to talk as he kept going, “I ruined everything by kissing him. I should have known he’d just turn into the same boy he was in the shoolyard again,” Syx closed his eyes, swallowing down the swelling emotions, “Too good to last.”
isn’t that just the same thing as a threesome / love triangle?
nope! polyamory differs because it’s a relationship. a threesome is purely sexual and often only happens once between those involved and love triangles don’t involve consent or sometimes even the knowledge of all parties involved and are largely considered unhealthy with how it can impact the parties involved.
polyamory thrives on two things: consent & awareness.
whereas a threesome is generally a one time thing, polyamory is a relationship involving consistency and commitment between more than one person.
polyamory isn’t just about sex. it’s about love and commitment as well for some if not all of those involved but there are many types of polyamory.
well then isn’t it basically polygamy?
polygamy is the marriage between one person and multiple partners. it’s a type of polyamory but does not always involve love between all parties involved and is usually politically related more than it is love and consent related. which is not to say polygamy can’t be consensual and loving the way polyamory in general is, it’s just to say the modern notion of polygamy is largely political.
TYPES OF POLYAMORY:
open relationships: in which two parties are in a relationship but it is open to the parties involved having other romantic relationships on the side / in addition to the one they are currently in
polygamy: closed relationship in which the parties involved are all married usually to one person
polycule: a complex inter-connected polyamory relationship
polyfidelity: all partners are primary to other partners within the group and sex is shared only among the group
eclectic relationship: relationship in which members are of varying sexualities with diverse elements as to how they function in the group
group relationship: a committed, loving relationship involving multiple partners
inclusive relationship: a relationship in which all partners agree to include more lovers into their relationship
multipartner relationship: any relationship that is nonmonogomous
WRITING POLYAMOROUS CHARACTERS:
this is a tough one because a lot of roleplay settings involve only one on one interactions. a good way to roleplay polyamory is to have multiple verses set up in which certain character involved with relationships with your own take place in the same verse. it’s important that all characters involved are consenting to this relationship, understand it is not monogomous, and are okay with being in the relationship. this can involve as many people in a ship as you want. it can be as diverse as your character only loving one person but having multiple consenting sexual partners or as complex as loving multiple characters who also love your character / love certain characters in addition to. it’s up to you and what feels right for your character!
polyamory is just as complex and diverse as your character(s) is / are, it’s okay to play around with group dynamics to see what is right with your character and polyamory.
just as much as it is important that the characters involved are consenting, the muns involved should be aware and consenting too. make sure you discuss it with your writing partners out of character as well to make sure they understand how it works and how it will play out in threads / writing.
ALWAYS REMEMBER: CONSENT IS MANDATORY. CONSENT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF EVERY POLYAMOROUS RELATIONSHIP.
