Arranged Marriage

Marriage for love is a such a modern concept. In the past, marriage was
recognised as a social contract. Unions were entered into for many
reasons: to obtain property, to unite families, to carry on a bloodline,
et cetera. Whatever the reason, congratulations, you're getting married!

How to Play:
Post with your character | fandom | and any preferences.
Be sure to mention any scenarios you are interested or not interested in playing.
Tag Others.
Be awesome to each other.
Have fun!

POSSIBLE REASONS:
STATION: You come from a royal, noble, or otherwise distinguished family who has chosen a suitable spouse for you.
FEUD: You are being married to put an end to the bitter enmity between your two families.
ECONOMICS: Your economic state and/or your station will improve through the union, though one of you may be marrying down.
EMPIRE: You and your spouse are merging your businesses and/or property to create something more influential or profitable.
TRIBUTE: You have been offered as a gift or appeasement, alternately you're the spoils of war.
BLOODLINE: Carrying on your distinguished family name has fallen to you and the equally well-bred spouse of your family's selection.
DISAPPROVAL: Your marriage has been arranged to keep you away from the person with whom you truly wish to be.

POSSIBLE SCENARIOS
FIRST MEETING: This is the very first time you're meeting your future spouse.
COURTSHIP: To get to know each other and encourage affection, your family has approved of you going on dates.
ENGAGEMENT PARTY: Be it a huge, formal affair or a small, intimate get together, you're celebrating (or pretending).
WEDDING DAY: The big day!
RECEPTION: The big party!
WEDDING NIGHT: Every meme needs a smut prompt, right?
HONEYMOON: Where will you go with your new spouse and what will you do there?

[Station, feud, and bloodline suit her best, but I'm down for any, honestly.]

Currently king of a city in Egypt. He isn't big on arranged marriages, but if a political marriage is the only way to remove the church from his land, he'll finally accept the conditions.

Willing to pretend m/m marriages are totally cool and a thing even back then, but also open to m/f )

We may have to play around with the idea for this one, but I'm open to making it work! )

( voice testing! not interested in disapproval )

[Game/companion choices in journal, warn for spoilers, I'm willing to play from any point/before the games/au him into other verses/etc. Also while m/m is the pref, I'm also down for f/m with castmates.

Look, arranged marriage is my jam I am absolute trash for it, bring me all your ideas]

[ aliens smashing together their barbies ]

( m/m for shipping. open to canon (even if this is clearly an au to begin with obv), crosscanon, ocs.

but the catch is your character is arranged to marry elan ceres and they are getting a clone :) can write them finding out or already knowing or whatever, or just not knowing. and don't worry, if something goes wrong with this clone, your character's soon-to-be spouse will be seamlessly (?) replaced with another :) very normal.

detailed prefs / info . please note there are spoilers.)

[ m/m, happy to discuss options. canon, crosscanon, OCs welcome. ]

[ m/m. crosscanon and assumed cr welcome! ]

[F/M. Game for Station, Feud, Bloodline, potentially Disapproval for Reasons. As for scenarios, fairly open to all of them!]

[Likely a matter of Station & Bloodline, open to First Meeting, Courtship, or Engagement Party.]

[M/F! Leaning towards Station, not against writing Feud, Tribute, or Bloodline given the nature of his lineage.

Scenario wise, I'm fairly flexible and can roll with any of them really.]

[Good with all and any of the above!]

[Probably a mix of Station, Tribute, and Bloodline. Courtship with assumed First Meeting CR might be fun to roll with.]

[Also comes in Inquisitor!flavour.]

[Bare bones about her: sarcastic seer with a knack for finding trouble, or having trouble find her. More in-depth information about her is here.]

[Original high fantasy setting Crown Prince, so Station+Bloodline are pretty much a given. Open to all others and any choice of scenario, and discussing any other setup ideas up front.]

[Canon, crosscanon, AUs, assumed CR, I'm here for all of it.]
