Manipulation ment //
BPD + psychosis culture is being unsure if your fp's joyfriend is manipulative or if you're just unsubconciously having an episode of bpd and jealousy because every time they do something you try to flirt with your fp or something.
(It doesn't help that your other fp and partner also see red flag with the joyfriend)
The bonus BPD culture is that matches, if thats true then i need to protect them!!!! My fp!! But i know its a situation where its better to do nothing.

So, I saw a Tiktok recently of a young person who had been in a relationship with a much older person and I wanted to talk about it.
According to their story, they were homeless at 18 and suffering from some medical issues when a person who was 90 met them. The older person offered them a home, stating they didn't want to be alone and they ended up getting married to them.
They, by their own admission, consummated the marriage and that they had "grown to love" this person.
They also then defended this person by saying they were not a groomer. However, it was followed up by talking about all the things this person gave them that they needed.
And to be clear. This person was a groomer. Or at the very least, incredibly manipulative.
This person was 18 years old, homeless, suffering. And an older person took advantage of that. I doubt this 18 year old would have married and slept with a 90 year old had they had a home and security. I doubt this 18 year old would have married a 90 year old and had to "grow to love" them if they had a home and security.
Grooming and manipulative relationships can look like all kinds of things. They're not always the typical "older man is using a younger woman for sex."
Sometimes, they can be a seemingly just lonely woman putting a young man in a position where he has to be in a relationship with her to avoid being back out on the street.
He talks about her as though she's his savior, which is understandable. He was experiencing something horrific that she took away from him. But these actions were not selfless. This was not an act of charity. This was someone using someone's situation to get what they wanted, intentionally or not.

I like to imagine people sort of assume Evan and Gregory are brothers because of how similar they look. They both decide to roll with it and end up being pretty close despite their different personalities.
(Side note, Henry finds them and their shenanigans delightful while Pewpaw is coping and seething.)
William was manipulating Evan because of his meek nature with the Fredbear-walkie and seethes now that Gregory is bringing him out of his shell and helping him become more confident

BLOODIED FANGS OCS
This is a list of OCs that are set in the Fierce Forests world. However, none of these characters or any of the Fierce Forests characters will meet in this story. Set in the region of Ascar, Ciro, a human, had come across a vampire named Blade during his travels and was cursed and forced to work under his rule for reasons Ciro doesn't understand. He managed to break free and escape, but was looked down by society, and he struggled to adapt to being a half vampire, half human. However, he met a human, a blacksmith and hunter named Edwin, and the two became good friends and eventual lovers. However, Blade seemed to have caught wind of where Ciro was, and decided to pay a visit...
All characters made by Hero Forge!
Ciro
Tumblr media
A dhampir man who was cursed by Blade and was forced to work under him and his wife. He managed to escape but was shunned by society... until he met Edwin, and the two became close. He is a grump due to how he was treated over the years, but he can be soft to those he cared about. He fights with a knife for emergencies and to help Edwin with his hunting, and he has four red fangs that could be used to drink blood, but he never used them, instead hiding them in shame.
Edwin
Tumblr media
A blacksmith and a hunter who works in the small town of Millstone, he was a shy and sweet man who wanted to help others, hence why he took the job as a blacksmith after his father passed away. He met Ciro while out hunting, and realizing he needed help, he took him in and saved his life. Despite knowing that Ciro was a vampire, the two became close. He used all sorts of weapons thanks to being a blacksmith, though the bow was his specialty.
Blade
Tumblr media
A mysterious vampire who roamed Ascar, finding humans to drink their blood before killing them. A cunning and manipulative man, he even kidnapped a human woman, Darcia, and forced her to be his wife and made her a dhampir, like Ciro. After learning of Ciro's whereabouts, he and Darcia paid him and his new boyfriend a visit... He used his fangs to drink the blood of humans, and also used a sword to fight.
Darcia
Tumblr media
A dhampir who was kidnapped by Blade and forced to be his wife. After years of manipulation under him, she grew obedient, willing to do whatever Blade wanted. She was once a woman with honor, having served under a king before she retired, but became a shell of her former self and became an obedient puppet, speaking in monotone and doing whatever Blade wished. Deep inside, she wanted to escape... She used her fangs to drink the blood of humans and used a staff to fight.
NOTE: ANY OF THIS IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE.

Gonna be honest, it was originally gonna be me in place of that girl but I SAW AN OPPORTUNITY! An opportunity to introduce one of Fuse’s lab assistants. But if we’re talking about Fuse, who knows if she’s still alive
AnyWAYS she’s got a FAT crush on him, which he doesn’t hesitate to take advantage of
A very timid and intelligent girl, Fuse convinced her to help him in his research by almost pure charisma. Of course this girl couldn’t deny she was intrigued in getting hands on research with Pokémon fusion, it’s not exactly a common thing. You see, not just anyone can get a license in this stuff. She didn’t know it’d be Pokémon and Human fusions. She tried to back out of the job but Fuse “convinced” her to stay. It set off some red flags, and kind of made her a little scared of him, but he seemed perfectly fine and good to be around any other time, just… as long as she did what he said.
She has a soft spot for the Fusion Victims, and would try to help them and comfort them in any way she could when she thought Fuse wasn’t looking. But of course, Fuse has eyes everywhere. With some coercion via forcing her to watch some… unpleasant operations he was preforming with his bare hands, she was forced to stop talking to them or else there would be consequences. Wonder what he threatened her with :). It broke her heart to see the Fusion Victims look at her with such pleading eyes when all she could do was just stay silent.
And the worst part of it all? She knows she’s being manipulated and used by him, she’s well aware, but she can’t shake her feelings for him, the flutter inside her chest every time she sees him. It’s awful. And she hates herself for it.
THANK YOU @xerofresh FOR GETTING THE MEME REFERENCE IMAGE FOR ME I was having trouble with intrusive thoughts and compulsions so I wouldn’t have been able to get it on my own

Oh, oh, idk if these have been shared already since my connection is spotty on the train so I can't backread, but my favorite problematic songs right now are "It's Warmer In The Basement" by Cobra Starship and "All My Life" by Foo Fighters! The former seems to be about abducting and recording and raping someone(a prostitute?) and the latter is also very rape and manipulation themed, I think
Foo fighters are a classic.

Tumblr media
Chongyun is leaning against the sofa, staring over at Kami, who's curled up, with a pillow in front of him. Kami's staring up at the ceiling, very clearly avoiding eye contact with Chongyun.
"So..." Chongyun prompts, trying to get some kind of conversation going. "You said you wanted to talk. I'm listening."
"I don't know how to talk," Kami finally says. He doesn't lower his gaze. "I'm shit at talking to people in person, you included. This is all stupid. Forget I said anything."
The corners of Chongyun's lips curl downward, anxiety starting to pool in their own gut. They don't exactly know what is going on, and the thought that Kami is hiding something is even more apparent now.
"Uh, I can't. You had a panic attack at work earlier."
"Yeah, cause I'm a mess and everyone knows it. Maybe I should call in tomorrow. Or whatever, it doesn't fucking matter." Kami offers a shrug, before shifting his position. He's stretching a leg out in front of him. "You can sit down, you know. I'm not contagious."
"I can sit down," Chongyun echoes. "But are you going to bolt the second I do?" They're moving to sit anyway. "Talk to me, I don't understand what's happening, and I don't-"
"Nothing," Kami interrupts. His gaze shifts to Chongyun. His brows furrow into something that's a mix between anger and. Fear?
"Nothing is going on, and I think that's my problem! I'm waiting for the ball to drop. Like I feel like I'm waiting for shit to go down. For Ren or Arakan or Niwa, or even you to just decide you've had enough and dip."
"I'm not going to!"
"You don't even fucking live in town, Chongyun. What if you drive back and decide you weren't serious about moving here? What then? Maybe I did push you away."
"Where is this even coming from?" Chongyun reaches a hand out to rest on Kami's outstretched leg. The second he makes contact, Kami's jerking his leg back, making an attempt to kick Chongyun away from him. "That's uncalled for," Chongyun complains.
"I never told you about..." Kami begins, trailing off immediately. He turns his head to the side, expression going completely blank.
If Chongyun were honest with themself, they'd have to say in all the years of knowing Kami, they have never seen Kami look like this before. Kami looks completely zoned out. He stays that way for several seconds.
"Kami?" Chongyun prompts. That spark of fear they felt earlier is back, even stronger now. "You with me?"
"I don't remember," Kami whispers. "I don't remember half the shit she did..."
"She?" Chongyun's head tilts to the side as they purse their lips in confusion. "You mean Ei? Or Yae?"
"No, it's..." Kami blinks a few times, snapping out of whatever trance had just held him in a vice grip. "Nevermind, I don't know how to talk about it." His gaze again lands on Chongyun, but he doesn't look as frustrated. "Look, some shit happened to me, and it's eating at me. I told Ren about it."
Chongyun's jealous over that. He doesn't have a reason to be, Ren is Kami's family. But Chongyun's known Kami for years, they're practically brothers at this point. At least, Chongyun had always seen Kami as an elder brother. Why would Kami go to someone he hasn't spoken to directly in years?
But then again, Chongyun had pushed Kami to talk to him more. Is this the result of cousins finally bonding? Chongyun shoves that feeling of jealousy aside, it's not worth getting upset over in the first place.
"Have you told your sibling, too?" Chongyun asks.
"I want to," Kami says, looking down at the pillow, Kami's fingers play with the corner of the pillow, folding it over and pulling it back up, and repeating the process. "God knows I want to talk to Arakan, and even you. I want to just scream at people so bad about what I went through, but I also don't want people thinking I'm even more weak than I already am? I mean, what if people leave?"
"No one's leaving you," Chongyun says firmly. "People care-"
"You don't know that!" Kami spits out. "God, stop telling me I have people in my corner. Yeah, you're there, but I don't know Ren and Arakan, and I know Niwa even less. I don't know them. I don't know what they think or how they feel, and for all I know, they still hate me! I can say some shit and mean it, and they say they care, but fuck. What if it's all just another fucking mindgame? What if I'm still being...nevermind. Fuck it, nevermind."
"Talk to me!" Chongyun says forcibly. "Jesus, Kami, talk to me! Tell me what's going on with you so I can help!"
"Please go back home. Tomorrow or the day after," Kami says. "Not because I want you to leave, fuck. If I was allowed to be selfish I'd have you move in with me right now. Cause yeah, I just. I dunno 'Yun, I need people. But I can't drag you down with me when I'm trying to get my head sorted. I'm so fucked up mentally." Kami waves his hand around his head to emphasize his point. "I had shit done to me. Like. I can't tell you details. God I want to. But crying and leaning on people is doing more harm than good at this point. I'm tired, I have a headache. I don't fucking know left from down anymore."
"What about therapy?"
"Yeah," Kami nods. "Therapy. I need it, I know I do. But I need some time to myself. In this apartment, or something. The past several days were really fucking overwhelming. You here, people constantly coming and going, and half of said people being so mentally screwed up. I. Fuck. I need a day or two alone."
"What about Cyno?"
"I'm not ditching him to the streets. He needs a home, I have a bedroom and a bed. I still want him to live here, but I need a day or two. I fucking need space. Physical space, not emotional."
"Okay. I can leave. I'll go back home and keep checking up on you. But don't you stop talking to your family, okay?"
"Do you think I can trust them?" Kami looks at Chongyun, staring intently. "I want an honest answer. Maybe you don't know them that well either, but you can talk to them easier than I can."
Chongyun stares back. This is a hard question to answer, because while Chongyun and Ren have joked with each other on streams before, in spite of being different categories, Kami's right. Chongyun doesn't know Ren outside of social media, and they know Arakan even less, other than Arakan seems introverted.
"I think you can," Chongyun says carefully. "They're your family. Just because your mom and aunt messed up doesn't mean they did."
"I know, but I feel like there's. It's all shit, 'Yun. I feel like everything is shit. Garbage."
"It's not." Chongyun rests his hands on Kami's knees, pulling on them to lower his legs. "Look, I may not know exactly what happened in your life, and I don't expect you to tell me, either. But I do expect you to keep trying. With everyone, with a therapist, or whatever you think helps, because whoever you were when we first met, I know you're not him anymore."
"I feel-"
"You're not. You're happier, you're more outgoing, you're even making giant steps to keep going. You have a great job, you're starting a new career, and you have gained a lot more over the past few years than you realize. You're not alone."
They watch Kami swallow a few times, blinking rapidly. But Chongyun hopes the emotions are positive, rather than negative.
"Thanks, little bro. Man, I am shit." He forces a laugh. "Go home though. You've been helping keep the peace around here. Go take time for yourself too. Don't be like Niwa, don't take on more than you can chew. Cause if you fall, I don't think there's hope for the rest of us."
Chongyun delivers a light pap to the cheek. "Don't worry. I'll help all of you through this. I'll force dms or something. And hey, I'll be back permanently before anyone knows it."
Kami doesn't say anything to that. Instead, he just leans forward and gives Chongyun a hug, letting his body relax.
"Thanks 'Yun. Know that I... y'know. Care."
"I love you too, Kami."

it's very important to understand how a personality disorder diagnosis functions in the psychiatric system, even if you identify with the diagnosis or find it useful.
personality disorders on your medical record will be used to discredit anything you say or do. they indicate "don't bother listening to this person; apply treatment regardless of their wishes but also they're probably manipulating/attention-seeking so maybe don't bother treating them". needing support becomes attention-seeking. behaviors that would be treated + supported in someone without this diagnosis are ignored or treated as manipulative. providers are instructed to "withdraw warmth" (a real thing in the DBT provider's manual, btw) in response to self-injury or suicidal ideation.
if you have been dx'd with a personality disorder professionally, you likely understand this.
now, here's the important part: this is not an issue of 'stigma' against a politically neutral, pre-discursive True Disease which is being Unfairly Maligned. these diagnoses were formulated based on the idea that some patients cannot be trusted, that some patients seek care too much. they are applied to patient charts as a justification for withdrawing care or as a dismissal of someone "not getting better" fast enough. in the uk, they are often employed by the nhs to shame or problematize people who use large amounts of nhs resources, arguing that receiving a lot of care through the nhs is a negative behavior stemming from a disordered personality.
there are elements of personality disorders which resonate strongly with many people, including myself, but you need to be clear-eyed about the origins + functions of this diagnosis. as a whole, they were created + function as ways to discredit + mistreat noncompliant or "difficult" patients. 'reclaiming' them is not going to change how they function systematically- it is going to make it easier to engage in this systematic neglect by evoking 'ableism' or 'stigma!' when people question the utility or application of the diagnosis.

Oh...
That isn't normal?
'M sorry y'all're going through this
I really wish my mom was normal.
I got food for myself because I was starving and only eat once a day
and then my mom proceeds to just UGHHH
"I bought you something yesterday and you never had a nerve to ask me if I wanted something!? you only think about yourself"
you can ask me to buy you something without guilt tripping me :)

omg,,, your brain!! sub cooper with a service dom/top is so good
like everyone wants to please him/ make him happy it works so well
You're so right, everybody simps over him so hard. They're all but tripping over themselves to fight for his attention
Also also also a bit of a dead dove idea, but Cooper knowing how people feel about him and using that to manipulate him into giving him whatever he wants/just using them. Maybe even leading them on without ever really giving them anything substantial.
(Bonus points for them snapping or getting too needy and forcing themselves on him after a while, maybe being angry or maybe being super apologetic the whole time)

DEAREST ADVISOR.
❥. yandere! emperor x advisor! reader
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
• liam luwelton was one of the most famous emperor on the history of lobelia empire. while he was praised for being a good and powerful ruler. he was also famous for being a womanizer who hook up with so many girls yet, he didn't even chosen any of them to be his empress.
• don't blame him, he likes having fun. but he hates when he got attached or tied to something that will hinder him. he was only doing this for his own entertainment after all. no one stayed on his side for so long anyways, well maybe except to the captain of his imperial knights, warren, his childhood friend.
• that was the main reason why he became surprised when warren's younger sister, you, became his advisor. the most amusing part was warren is the one who recommended you. hmm, it seemed like your brother doesn't even care about the fact that liam's mother, the previous empress, fired all the female servants after knowing her son's tendencies to, uhm... seduce them.
• that was the main reason why he was excited to finally meet you. the famous sister of his friend. he wanted to know how long will it take for you to became smitten and obsessed with him? ahh, just thinking about it makes liam so excited.
• but you were fucking different that he expected. who in the hell is in the right mind to greet the emperor for the first time while wearing a damn pyjamas? what the fuck? as far as he knew, you were the damn daughter of a duke. so, what in the hell was wrong with your fashion sense?
• well, keeping your fuvked up fashion aside. you were indeed good at your job. even though you can be pretty hard headed sometimes, you were able to carry yourself with so much confidence and boy, oh boy. he likes it so much.
• maybe, that time when he basically threaten you to wear an appropriate dress to attend a certain banquet with him. was the time when he realized that he fucked up. yeah, his motto that 'no string attached' crumbled down as he saw your annoyed face when the maids' dressed you up with the most elegant dress that he gifted for you. and the fact that you got drunk that night and mumbled some cute nonsense didn't helped either. fuck. the main reason why he got you drunk anyways is to fuck you. but damn, he can't bring himself to do it since you looked so cute while clinging to him for support!
• as a yandere, liam was overbearing and posessive. gosh, this guy is unhinged and practically crazy. he's an emperor for the petesake! he killed his siblings to ascend to the throne. so don't expect that he's a nice guy!
• those times that he escaped the palace just to go outside and hook up with girls? yup, he stopped doing that for you. expect that while working, his eyes were focused on your every move. you talk to other guy other than him and warren? expect that he will be fired the next day. and why is that? well, it's your fault.
• he was now fine with you working in your pyjamas, you're so cute wearing that after all! but, in exchange he will increase your workload 10x because he knew that you always goes home after finishing your work, he just wants to spend the whole day with you!
• don't even think of quiting, darling. because liam will not let you to do so. unfortunately, he was able to wrap his pretty fingers around you with you being unaware of it. ahh, he just loves how clueless you are when liam fired all the male servants on his palace and replaced it with the female ones to make sure they you won't be able to flirt with them while working.
• all in all, liam is head over heels for you. he wants you for himself to the point that he spread the rumour about you being the next empress of the prestigious lobelia empire. just to shackle you by his side.
• but of course, your usual playful older brother doesn't like it at all. so be ready, because just like a prince on the fantasy stories that the two of you read before. he will do anything to save you, his precious little sister even if it means he needs to burn down the whole empire and kill liam for you. i mean, when you were a kid, you mentioned that you wanted to be a ruler. so just sit back and let your big brother, warren do the work <3.
“ our love comes first, everything is secondary.”
