Trope: characters are forced to engage in sexual intimacy or risk death. Often used to alleviate sexual tension that already exists between characters, but not always.

Ex:

• being exposed to aphrodisiacs or “sex pollen”
• kidnapped and forced to fuck each other or be murdered
• protagonist on a new planet needs cum to live
• a curse/spell that can only be broken by sex

Inherently a dub-con/non-con trope since one cannot freely consent to sex while under threat of death.

Accepting recs!

Welcome to the depths of depravity, where trigger warnings practically serve as the table of contents. Romance is optional (and usually nonexistent), morals are absent, and MMCs are morally BLACK—not gray, not for the greater good, and definitely not knights in shining armor.

These aren’t walking red flags. They’re the entire crime scene.

This isn’t dark romance. This is UNHINGED. 🖤
