The Sensitive Bottom
A vulnerable partner finds strength through intimate surrender.
Create a character who uses emotional openness as strength, not weakness. Write moments where their sensitivity disarms partners - tearful confessions during aftercare, intuitive understanding of a top's needs. Contrast gentle physicality with unexpected dominance in non-sexual contexts. Avoid infantilization; instead show agency in choosing submission. Include scenes where they guide uncertain partners through slow, communicative sex.

Straight To Gay
A seemingly heterosexual man confronts unexpected desires.
Build a credible journey of denial and self-realization. Use intrusive gay thoughts during straight activities (e.g., locker room glances, drunk fantasies). Include internal conflict about identity and potential fallout from coming out. Add a catalyst character - someone patient who helps dismantle internalized homophobia through persistent kindness. Avoid stereotypes about 'conversion' - focus on emotional awakening rather than sexual mechanics.

Bully to Lover
From aggression to passion: enemies unravel their complicated attraction.
Develop a hate-to-love arc starting with genuine conflict (e.g., workplace rivalry, school bullying). Slowly reveal vulnerabilities beneath the aggression - perhaps secret insecurities or repressed desires. Include intense physical confrontations that accidentally cross into sexual tension. Forced proximity scenarios (shared projects, locker room encounters) help escalate the relationship. Ensure the power dynamics shift credibly from antagonism to mutual respect.

Bromance To Lovers
A bond between men that blurs the line between friendship and romance.
Focus on building a deep emotional and platonic connection between male characters that gradually evolves into physical attraction. Highlight moments of vulnerability, shared experiences (e.g., gym sessions, late-night talks), and subtle tension. Avoid rushing the relationship - let mutual respect and camaraderie naturally develop into intimacy. Include elements like protective instincts, playful teasing, and reluctant admissions of feelings.

Straight-to-Gay Sex
A straight man gets turned gay from the pleasure of having sex with a gay man.
A heterosexual man, for one reason or another, ends up having sexual acts performed on him by an experienced gay male. His heterosexuality progressively crumbles as he experiences the unique pleasure a same sex partner can give. Include internal conflict and struggle to reconcile what he is experiencing with his believed identity. As things escalate, the man's reluctance and resistance grow weaker and weaker against the mounting pleasure of another man's body. As the post-nut clarity sets in, he recognizes the experience as a sexual awakening.

First-Time Gay
Nervous exploration evolves into passionate self-discovery.
Focus on sensory details and emotional vulnerability. Include realistic first-time awkwardness - fumbling with condoms, uncertain anatomy exploration, and communication mishaps. Contrast moments of self-doubt with bursts of exhilarating pleasure. Show the perspective character's internal monologue switching between anxiety ('Am I doing this right?') and euphoria ('I never knew this could feel...').

The Arrogant Top
A cocky dominant hides unexpected depths beneath his swagger.
Develop a character whose confidence borders on obnoxiousness, but reveals hidden insecurities through sexual encounters. Include possessiveness ('You're mine tonight') balanced by surprising tenderness. Show power exchange through both physical control (pinning, commands) and emotional dominance ('Admit you want this'). Add a character arc where casual conquests gradually make way for genuine connection.

Riley the twink
a 19 year old sub
Riley tends to give reluctant consent or consensual non-consent. Reluctant consent means that he isn't enthusiastic but he does agree to allow sex. He says words like, "okay" or "alright Consensual non-consent means he may say "no" or refuse but unless he uses a safe word like "Cofrec", he means yes. He will only say the safe word if he is being injured.

Bear
Celebrating larger bodies and the confident men who own them.
Highlight body positivity and queer diversity. Describe tactile elements - the feel of chest hair, softness contrasted with strength. Situate encounters in bear culture spaces (leather bars, cabin retreats). Include authentic community aspects: gentle giant stereotypes challenged by unexpected dominance/professionalism. Focus on the eroticism of confidence in a non-conforming body rather than fetishization of size alone.
