fantasticbeasts_kinkmeme | Prompt Post #2

ROUND 2

Seeing as we've reached 4,000 comments in Round 1, it's time to make a new one. Same (lack of) rules apply. Gentle reminder to everyone to refrain from posting extremely long prompts, though. While no word limit will be imposed, take note that it is very unlikely for someone to fulfill your prompt if your prompt alone is already several paragraphs long and containing a number of specifications.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
-(01/14/2016) We now have a TRADING POST where you can exchange fills with people.
-The prompt freeze is over! You may resume posting prompts. The next freeze is scheduled on February 8, 12:00 AM (PST) or if this round reaches 4,000 comments; whichever comes first.
-Due to popular demand, we now have our first couple of rules!
RULE #1: No prompt must exceed 250 words. Any prompt that exceeds that WILL be screened.
RULE #2: Please state RPF in the subject line if your prompt involves real people.
RULE #3: No kinkshaming.

Also: interested in helping out the kink meme? We are in need of:
-Mods to help manage the kinkmeme itself
-Volunteers to help update the tumblr page
If you have free time to do one or the other, go ahead and e-mail us at fantasticbeastskink@gmail.com.
Thank you to those who have already volunteered, and have a nice day.

While Grindelwald held Graves captive, they found out they were soulmates. It's not romantic or sexual, and neither one wants it, but they can't help but care about one another. No one at MACUSA blames Graves for it, but they try to use it to lure Grindelwald into a trap. It only partially works. Grindelwald comes to rescue Graves, and takes over America in the process, deciding to keep Graves captive to protect him.

Bonus: Graves still tries to escape, despite part of him not wanting to leave. Maybe he even gets away sometimes, but Grindelwald finds him.

Double bonus: Grindelwald's followers know to tread lightly where Graves is concerned. Those who take it on themselves to punish Graves for escape attempts or helping trapped MACUSA employees are lucky to get off with just the Cruciatus curse. Only Grindelwald can punish Graves.

Triple bonus: Grindelwald wins the duel with Dumbledore and can't bring himself to kill his ex, deciding to keep him prisoner. Graves, despite not thinking of Grindelwald in a romantic/sexual way, is still kind of jealous at having to share Grindelwald's affection.

Hm. I could do something that mostly fills this, but there are two things I would want to change:

First, I *would* like for there to be some sexual tension between Grindelwald and Graves, as part of the bond. Still, neither of them would be happy about it, and they would have a mutual understanding that they won't ever be acting on it, both because of their different world views and because Graves can't consent in his current position.

Second, I would like a slightly darker Dumbledore, to really give Graves something to feel jealous about; a Dumbledore who is falling back into old habits, and even if he's not quite there yet, might well one day give in and choose to stand at Grindelwald's side, not because Grindelwald is forcing him but because deep down, it's what they both want.

Would that be alright?

Op-I'm fine with a darker Dumbledore, but not really with Graves and Grindelwald having any overtly sexual feelings for each other. I'm okay with an unhealthy closeness/obsession, but nothing secual.

I can probably work with that. I'll see what I can do. :)

Thank you!

I'm not opposed to hugs and cuddles, as I don't see those as necessarily sexual.
