criticalkink | General Kink Discussion

Anon asked for a post where they could discuss fic advice and thoughts while remaining anonymous.

BIG, IMPORTANT NOTE: If any discussion descends into being rude about the cast, the characters, other members of fandom, or anything else, this post will go away and y'all can go make an anonmeme somewhere else. This is not for snark, it's for discussion and conversation that people do not feel comfortable having on Tumblr. Only offer concrit on people's comments if they specifically request it, and do be constructive about it.

And for the love of the Everlight, don't kinkshame, even in a "well, I don't like watersports, but maybe you could blah blah blah" way. Stick with the advice, not the judgment.

Anon is on, IP logging is off.

Omg what a blessing was literally just considering asking for a post like this. Because honestly I feel like just talking about characters and kinks in a casual way but can't exactly just post "hey who wants to talk about Vax and watersports" on my public twitter lol

From: (Anonymous)

Finally I have somewhere safe to ask these questions, thank you for this post !!
So: I've been writing character fic for a while but there's just something about CR that makes me want to try slowly easing into RPF. I'm just so in love with the idea of the cast being of the type of friends that casually get with each other (or maybe I just want to create a scenario where Matt gets a break for once).
Anyway for you seasoned RPF'ers out there: how did you go about the transition from character fiction to RPF?

From: (Anonymous)

Okay so. This has been on my mind after spending a Lot of time on the kinkmeme
We all kind of silently agree that Taliesin would be the kinkiest of the lot and I get it? But I don't get why I get it?
Is it some kind of aura of kink that we all pick up on with our definitely hellbound hivemind or just?
How
Why

From: (Anonymous)

Not strictly kink related but i can't think of where else to ask this.
Everyone makes a metric ton of jokes about Brian Foster having been arrested/in jail/parole/etc but why? Did he legit get arrested once or something?

From: (Anonymous)

To fellow writers, what are some patterns or characterisations that you just can't break free of?
The world of CR RPF has bitten my ass hard, and I find that some things - like submissive Matt (seriously, even his name screams sub) - have just wormed their way into my writing and seem so natural that I often don't question them until I see a prompt that suggests otherwise.
Have any of you noticed anything similar? If you have, do you think it restricts your writing or helps it settle? Do you have any ways to encourage/discourage patterns?

From: (Anonymous)

Does anyone have any idea who wrote Filter By Relationship?

From: (Anonymous)

I'm feeling curious, so let's have a chat: do you read/write mostly RPF, mostly character fiction, or an even mix of the two? what is it about this category you find the most appealing? what's your preferred/main pairing?

From: (Anonymous)

this post seems kind of dead but. "you know your terrified victim is wetting herself in fear because you can feel her piss against your knee" from song of the lorelei. pretty detailed. and reminds me that liam sure does bring up piss a lot. just saying.

From: (Anonymous)

I don't have a tumblr so I don't have anywhere else to squee about this, but I'm really glad the Caleb/Jester rarepair seems to be picking up in the last couple of weeks. Although, their dynamic seems more conducive to fluff than smut at the moment. (Change my mind. >:3 )

From: (Anonymous)

So, Tumblr is a dead site walking— does anyone have any idea where the smutty crit role community will pick up and head?

AO3 just isn’t quite the same...

From: (Anonymous)

I put this on tumblr but I need a larger sample size for statistically valid results...just trying to get a general feel for who y'all are horny about, lmao

Anyone else here into orientation play as a kink? Someone who's not into a particular gender being requested to do things with someone of that gender by their Dom/me, for example, or even deciding to experiment on their own out of curiosity.

From: (Anonymous)

Do any of y’all know if there are discord groups specifically geared towards either writing kink or even just general content for critical role?? If not, would anyone be interested if I made something like this?

From: (Anonymous)

Pardon the practical question, but it seems like there must be some secret konami code to making it easier to see 'new' content on here that I have yet to discover.

How is one supposed to know when any of the posts that have 8 or 11 pages of content gets a reply, or a fill?

From: (Anonymous)

I don't even know where to START

From: (Anonymous)

I know this can come off demanding or whiny, but I've felt discouraged writing for the Kinkmeme lately.
So I'll take it as an opportunity to say that if you enjoy a fill, no matter how old, leave a comment. It means the world to the filler, and is completely anonymous!
If you enjoy a prompt, feel free to say so. Prompts with activity are more likely to be filled.
Let's make sure this is a community as welcoming and encouraging as other Critter spaces, just with more lovely, juicy, kinky content! <3

From: (Anonymous)

Feeling curious today so heres a question: favorite character/kink combination? Rpf or character no shaming here <(^_^)>

From: (Anonymous)

Is there a RPF discord :(? Kinda wanna talk about it, kinda not wanting to come out of anon lol (tried messaging the tumblr community to no avail, tumblr wont let me D:)

From: (Anonymous)

Why does it feel like prompts for Travis are less likely to be completed?

From: (Anonymous)

random youtube deep dives are fun. thought y'all might appreciate this vid of matt and mark hulmes (calianna) from ayacon '09.

From: (Anonymous)

I really don't know if this is the right thread for this, but I am going insane looking for a fill and I figured I would ask to see if anyone knows where it is. I could have sworn it was somewhere on the kinkmeme, but I have looked in each RPF thread have not seen it.

The fill I am trying to find is Liam/Matt/Marisha/Talisen where Liam gets a phone call that the other three are being "held captive" and the "Captor" wants him to come over to keep the others safe. It's really a consensual-nonconsent roleplay in which everyone but Liam takes a turn being the "Captor". If I remember correctly it was Marisha first, but I don't remember the order for Matt & Talisen. If anyone knows where to find this I would appreciate directions, because I am completely lost.

From: (Anonymous)

I guess technically now he's part of CR, not just adjacent: Ivan Van Norman.

Please, sir, set me on fire and whip me.

I was wondering if there was still a writing/ship discussion discord server that was up and running?
Found a previous comment saying to message the criticalkink tumblr but it seems to have been deleted from what I can tell.

Cheers!

From: (Anonymous)

I will freely admit that I am more of a lurker on this thread than anything else, I was part of the discord for a time but left it because I felt that I didn't have anything to contribute to it. However with campaign 2 having ended, Exandria Unlimited around the corner, and Campaign 3 beyond that (each with the potential for new threads) I thought I may as well propose the idea of a Fill thread in order to consolidate just incase people are running out of space in their Notification Tracking. I would like to propose a thread where an Anon can link their fic in a central location, either when it has been started or when it has been completed.

Other Kink memes I have been part of in the past have had differing methods for a Fill Thread. Some have had Anons provide a link only when the fic is completed, others have had Anons provide a link both when the prompt is first filled and when the prompt has been completed, others still have asked for a link provided for every chapter until the fill is completed. Personally, I like the second method best but I see the benefits of all three.

I think this has the potential to make it easier to find stories in what I think is about to become a much larger group of threads. Using one of my favorite stories on this Kink Meme "See Me At My Worst", I have provided an example of how I think this could work on the premise of the third idea (links for every chapter until completed (unless posting multiple parts at once))
_____
TITLE: [FILL] See Me At My Worst, 1/? (Percy/Vox Machina, NC-17)

THREAD: CR Campaign One: Vox Machina era (characters)

Link to prompt: "Percy/Vox Machina, consensual gangbang" https://criticalkink.dreamwidth.org/700.html?thread=48572#cmt48572

Link to fill: https://criticalkink.dreamwidth.org/700.html?thread=55740#cmt55740
_____

When the next part (and all following parts until the Fill is completed) is ready the poster might reply to their original post in the Fill thread as follows.
_____
TITLE: RE:[FILL] See Me At My Worst, 2/? (Percy/Vox Machina, NC-17)

Link to start: https://criticalkink.dreamwidth.org/700.html?thread=55740#cmt55740

Link to current part: https://criticalkink.dreamwidth.org/700.html?thread=56764#cmt56764
_____

When the fill is eventually completed (again assuming that it wasn't all posted at once) The Anon could again reply to their post on the Fill thread as such.
_____
TITLE: COMPLETE [FILL] See Me At My Worst, 11/11 (Percy/Vox Machina, NC-17)

Link to prompt: "Percy/Vox Machina, consensual gangbang" https://criticalkink.dreamwidth.org/700.html?thread=48572#cmt48572

Link to start: https://criticalkink.dreamwidth.org/700.html?thread=55740#cmt55740

Again this is simply an idea. I am not someone who has either prompted or written on this thread, but I am someone who enjoys reading through it. I leave it up to those who are more active within to decide if this method is something that would work well for them.

Sincerely, Reader Anon
