neopoints In our world, sexual roles are commonly defined by genders -- male or female or other, by sexualities -- gay or straight, bi or asexual or in-between. But what if they were defined by something else entirely?
Alpha/Beta/Omegaverse is a fusion of fanfiction tropes and animalistic behavior. In this world, sexual roles are divided into three categories: the Alphas (the dominant, the protective and the aggressive), the Betas (ordinary humans) and the Omegas (submissive, fertile and able to carry children).
ROLES:
1 - The Alpha.
* Stereotypically type A personalities.
* Anatomically: Males have a penis; females may have a penis in addition to a vagina.
* Alphas knot their mates, meaning that the base of the penis swells and locks them inside their mate while they produce copious amounts of semen in an effort to breed.
* Strong sense of smell.
* Near an Omega in heat, they experience a compulsion to mate that is almost impossible to overcome.
* Alphas may go into rut, which is their equivalent of Omega heat, and drives them to mate.
2 - The Beta.
* Ordinary human being.
* Males have penises; females have vaginas.
* Can mate to anyone.
* Might be able to smell hormones of Omegas and Alphas, but will not be overwhelmingly affected by them.
3 - The Omega.
* Stereotypically submissive, quiet, intelligent and less physically able.
* Regularly go into heat, which involves being overcome by the urge to mate. They are unable to consent while in heat.
* May be made compliant by a bite to the neck. However, that may also induce a mating bond.
* Often regarded as second-class citizens or prizes to be won.
SITUATIONS:
1 - Bonding - Love at first sight. You've spotted your soulmate. You can smell them, you can feel them, you know that they'll be with you until the end of your days. Unless there's something between the two of you. It could be age - maybe one of you has to wait until the other has reached maturity. It could be that the bond is one-sided, and the other has yet to fall in love. It could be an unwanted bond, or society could have divided you into different places. Is your love strong enough to conquer?
2 - Heat/Rut - The need is coming on you strong. Everyone for a half-mile around can smell it. Better find someone to ride it out with, or hole yourself up in a room with a few bottles of water and a durable sex toy. And you'd better hope that there isn't someone out there who will take advantage of your pliable state. Best case scenario, there might be a Beta who can take care of you, or fend off anyone too predatory.
3 - Pregnancy - Whether through a heat or not, you're pregnant. Congratulations - or condolences. Is it time to start a family, or time to start panicking?
4 - Suppressants - You're using suppressants to keep yourself on an even hormone cycle, skipping heats, or maybe pretending to pass as a different class of society. After all, Omegas might want to be in the military, where they're not usually allowed - or an Alpha might want to take a job in a university or as a nurse. Shouldn't they be allowed to, if their hormones are suppressed? Just hope that you don't miss a dose.
5 - Mistaken Identity - That friend that you always thought was an Alpha, or an Omega, or a neutral Beta, turns out to be something entirely different, and your world is turned absolutely upside down. Does it challenge your preconceptions? Or does it just ruin the balance between you two?
6 - Unlikely Pairs - After all, there's no actual reason that Alphas have to mate with Omegas. Maybe two Omegas can satisfy each other. Or two Alphas. Or your intended mate could easily be a Beta. Maybe this is just about breaking out of your pre-established role and becoming something new.
7 - Manifestation - In some cases, an individual may not know they are Omega, Beta or Alpha until their first heat/rut/manifestation, usually happening in early teen years. It may take you by surprise; it may be a blessing, or may be a deep disappointment.
8 - Other - Adventures in getting jobs, making families, fighting bad guys, and anything else you can come up with!

Date: 2021-04-19 08:00 pm (UTC)This is about what you need, Quire. I can, probably, keep myself under control for a while. I just... None of my training really covered this.
no subject
Date: 2021-04-20 03:51 am (UTC)he needs to make this bearable for both of them. they're trapped here, this is fucking happening whether either of them want it (neither of them do), so he just needs to.. deal with it. ]
It's about you, too, [ he grits out, curling his arms around himself, glancing to the fire. ] It'll be over a lot quicker if I have an alpha, but if you hate the idea, I'll knock you out and try to keep you out.
no subject
Date: 2021-04-20 03:57 am (UTC)Great. My choices are possibly freeze to death in my sleep because your cycle is out of whack or have my fir-
[Nope. Not admitting that to Quire.]
I am so not doing joint missions ever again. There’s no getting around the logical choice here.
no subject
Date: 2021-04-20 04:08 am (UTC)he briefly considers just walking out into the snow. freezing to death would be unpleasant, but at least he wouldn't have this responsibility looming over him. he suspects alleyne would find it an extreme response, though.
his jaw works, and he finally, reluctantly, glances back up, breathing carefully and trying not to focus on david's.. alphaness. fuck. ]
You need to tell me the truth. Is this your first time dealing with an omega in heat?
no subject
Date: 2021-04-20 04:12 am (UTC)I know what I’m doing. Will be doing.
[Which is absolute truth given his powers. He does know.
But none of it is from first hand experience. Which might be surprising for a guy not-so-secretly seeing an omega speedster on and off.]
no subject
Date: 2021-04-20 04:38 am (UTC)[ he shifts from foot to foot, uncomfortable, mouth flat. ] You have something like half a foot and fifty pounds on me, and I get really sick of getting hurt during my heats. [ that sounded a little dramatic. it's not all the time, obviously, but it's happened in the past, either with an inexperienced alpha or--once, memorably--one who figured quentin's heat was an optimal time to teach him a lesson. but if it sounds a little dramatic, maybe david will realize he's taking it really seriously.
but it has to be uncomfortable for him, too. quentin is not the person he's sure david would like to be doing this with, so.. he shouldn't be so short with him, at least. maybe act like this isn't some kind of chore.
he softens his body language, uncurling his arms and dropping them to the side, the scowl smoothing away from his expression. ] .. I know this isn't.. ideal, and I know you kinda' hate me, but.. I have it on good authority that I'm a pretty good lay, especially during my heat.
no subject
Date: 2021-04-20 04:48 am (UTC)But he swears in that moment he will do all he can to not be like those others. And maybe to find out who they are and fuck with their finances. For karmic retribution. Hacking is a good hobby sometimes.
For now he steps forward, nervous, a hand coming up to touch one of Quentin’s arms.]
You’re an arrogant, self important, conceited asshole who seems to delight in pissing me off, just like every other male telekinetic I’ve ever known. Yes, I can hardly stand you. It would give me no end of pleasure to kick your ass in a fair fight of one kind or another some day.
But I’m also dead here without your help. And even before that, you’re a person, and the specific ways I can be an asshole still don’t keep me from taking care of people. So trust me, first time or not, I’ve got more years of experience in me than any alpha you’ve met, more reason to keep you safe and happy, and every reason not to make either of us miserable. So will you trust me?
no subject
Date: 2021-04-22 02:15 am (UTC)You're never going to be able to kick my ass, [ he says shakily, because he can't just leave it unaddressed. although given how hard it is to keep his voice steady and keep from leaning toward the alpha, maybe he should have left it for afterward, when he can dangle david from one foot a hundred feet in the air and remind him that just because quentin's an omega doesn't make him any less an omega-level.
his jaw works, expression flat and suspicious, but.. he sort of has to trust him, doesn't he? and as far as he knows, david's never been that kind of spiteful. ] .. Fine. Yeah, okay. [ he hesitates, then reaches up to the closures on his uniform, pulling it open at the throat and chest. ] I should.. get out of this before I get any worse.
no subject
Date: 2021-04-22 02:27 am (UTC)Yeah, you, uh...
[The scent, and the first bit of skin bared has him hungry. David moves forward before he can really stop himself. His hands moved as well, coming up to the closures to help with them. But hey, he's not ripping them at all.]
Tell me to stop if you need.
no subject
Date: 2021-04-22 03:24 am (UTC)finally, he reaches, his own palms sliding over david's waist, skimming up to palm his ribs through his own uniform. ] I wanna' start out on your lap. [ he tugs at the other man's uniform with his tk, beginning to pull it open, suddenly very invested in getting him naked. ]
no subject
Date: 2021-04-22 03:36 am (UTC)Don’t rip my uniform and we’ll be fine, Quire.
[Saying anything but his last name would be too intimate, in David’s opinion. But he did pull Quentin fully against him. Telekinesis meant that even being close would probably leave Quentin more than capable of stripping him. Bedsides, he would be lying if he claimed he never thought about how those lips, so good at crafting insults, might feel. Guess he got to test it now with a hard kiss.]
