The kind of rp that @pinkdadger and I do usually involves a few days/weeks of elaborate worldbuilding to determine what the setting is, what my situation is, what the extent of his powers are, and what sort of things are going to be happening once the story gets rolling
It's a little bit ridiculous but it's also a big part of why we hit it off so fast when we started talking, there was this magical moment where we both realized 'oh, good, someone else who legitimately enjoys creating an extremely baroque premise for being horny in first'
At first we started with an age regression premise involving Astolpho in @PinkDadger's thoroughly horny sci-fi setting, Evertech, and that was a lot of fun, but I'd already switched to a badger fursony on my main and he had also started moving from Typhlosion to badger
So he wanted a little badger to collar and that's how Pebble came to be. I didn't even come up with the name; juvenile badgers and otters are both called 'pups', which he didn't much care for, so in his personal lexicon, a baby otter is a 'skipper' and a baby badger is a 'pebble'
(So 'pebble' isn't really supposed to be my 'name' so much as it is a designation of what I am. I, um. I.. don't get a name. Only people have names. You don't name owned objects, you just call them what they are.)
(I'll also confess that the idea of surrendering control of myself so fully to someone else to the extent that they take my old fursona away and assign me a completely new one pressed some buttons in places I didn't even know I had)
None of the stories we did with a pebble involved age regression, though - the premise would usually involve some version of growing until reaching puberty and then getting collared and caged once I'm old enough to paw, with the revelation that Dad had planned this from birth
And this was still a lot of fun for me, there's a magic trick you can do on me where I'll get really into nearly any kind of humiliation you want, AS LONG AS it comes with some kind of verbal affirmation of how much you like doing that to me, how you like me better like this
I mean there's limits to this, like knives and vore and injury and most forms of physical pain will remove me from the headspace immediately, but even then, we discovered with stuff like CBT I still get a lot of emotional catharsis from knowing how much Dad likes doing it to me
But generally any kind of embarrassing situation can work for me as long as it comes from a place of affection, "I like you better like this" is one of those phrases that will always blow my fuses no matter how many times it's used and will always make me want to be a good pebble
However: one of the difficulties I've been having lately is that all the stuff that works with @pinkdadger with me as a pebble ONLY works with him. I spend a lot of time on f-chat and, uh, most of the time I'm still logging in as Astolpho. Which, I don't know, feels dishonest?
I know that sounds kind of loopy because this is all just horny text-based make-believe but when I'm not around @pinkdadger I slip right back into old habits and I've been trying to figure out why that is and how to "fix" it, as though it is a problem what needs fixing
The problem was pretty easy to spot, though - pebble isn't age-regressed. The idea of going from adult or near-adult to toddler and being expected to play the role assigned, with previous memories and knowledge intact has always been my core kink for as long as I can remember
There's other ways to scratch that itch, but they need to involve some kind of loss of status/personhood and they need to be done by someone who:
1. did it because they like me
2. did it because they like me better like this, and
3. enjoys exercising power over me this way
1. did it because they like me

So tween pebble going from son to pet works because it satisifies all of those prereqs and was pitched by someone who was really into the idea, but it's not a pitch I'd make to someone else. I'm not a fan of racing games but if it's a really good racing game, I'll still have fun.
We had a conversation recently about how I haven't completely gotten into being a pebble when I'm not playing with him, though, and how I might need to make some changes to the character that he might not like, but are necessary to make it feel more like 'me'.
We're also working on a premise that actually involves age regression this time, with me being an antique store owner/part-time dealer in supernatural antiquities receiving a mirror that puts him in contact with his father, a powerful mage who he was separated from at birth
And he determines that he's got a lot of time to make up for, so Pebble goes from 40 to 4, and has to adjust to the transition from fully grown middle aged man established in his life and reasonably successful in his career to playing the part of a fully subordinate child
This seems to have done it, though. I'm waaaay more into being a little badger at all times now, instead of just in certain contexts. Usually age-regression narratives for me worked best when starting from early adulthood but now I'm getting more into starting from my actual age.
(I didn't mean for this thread to turn into a goddamned novel, whoops)
