My updated idea list. All of these are merely concepts. I enjoy discussing and negotiating plot points and limits so that we end up with a scenario that works for both of us.
The Personal Assistant (Open, Likely BON, Could Stray into Reluctant/Non-Consensual, UN)
(1) I would love to role play the personal assistant or secretary to a strong, dominant boss. She is shy, awkward and has tremendous respect and even awe for her employer. I see the boss as either an older, successful dominant man or a married sophisticated woman. The employer sees the potential in the personal assistant and decides to reform the shy, awkward young woman into his or her idea of perfection. Slowly, her or she takes control over every aspect of her life, changing her, altering her behavior, utterly and completely dominating her. An interesting corollary with a female boss where the female boss is married to a very successful man. And she molds the personal assistant to be the slut/mistress of her husband, because there are some things a lady doesn't do. This would be lovely if played subtly.

Infiltration (Open to Wherever this Goes, I see it as likely Vanilla, but in the end who knows, so UN)
(2) A beautiful woman is recruited by the Israeli secret service to seduce and marry a rich, politically connected Saudi in order to live in his country as a mole. Over time, as she spies on her husband, she finds herself falling in love with him.
He may already have a second or first wife. I sense that it will likely tragically. We might do it in a series of acts, the meeting, the marriage and learning to fit in with a different culture, being activated as a mole, attempting to flee, leaving behind the husband she has come to love after betraying him and ruining his reputation.
It would take a certain amount of back and forth via PMs to make this mesh. It could involve just the husband and wife or a third player as a first wife. I see this as primarily psychological, romantic, and likely vanilla.
I'm open to going wherever we choose to take the story. Who knows maybe I'm wrong and she falls in love, not with her husband, but the first wife.
On another note, though my concept is modern. It could also be put in a science fiction type setting (think Dune), where the political backdrop is a disguised religious/Middle East scene. Alternatively, we could set in the 1970s. We would want to do some leg work first, back and forth with the PMs.
The Arranged Marriage (I see this as Vanilla, but as always open to other thoughts)
(3) I'd enjoy an arranged marriage role play. A young wife comes to America to marry a man she has never met. We could talk about what cultures are involved, how this came about. I read a lovely book called the Village Bride of Beverly Hills by Kavita Daswani and I felt it would be a fun topic to explore.
Initially, I viewed this as a modern day scene. But it could also be turned into an historical. I could even see it played in a fantasy setting, thinking of all those princesses married off to foreign princes [Claimed by Dingo with Modifications] .
The Enslavement (Bondage, reluctant, non-consensual, hard edged)
(4) I still want to do a consensual/non-consensual slaver/pet/toy scenario. Basically, I would play a young woman who wants to be enslaved. She it utterly charmed (and turned on) by the entire concept. But she is also strong-willed, stubborn, and finds it very hard to submit. So she turns to a man (he might be a boyfriend, a mentor, the boyfriend's boss, I'm open to ideas) who agrees to accept her as his slave. He will do his best to teach her submission, to break her will so that she can truly enjoy her submissive nature. But she wants and he agrees it understood that she cannot change her mind for a set period, say six months. But in this case, the male character has to be played with a harder edge. My character would enjoy submission to an extent. But she would resist some things, she would try to take control at times, she might, she might want to back out after having previously agreed to everything. I'd want someone who isn't squeamish about non-consensual story lines. Because even though this is consensual in a sense, I would want the male character to take my character and turn her into a true slave/pet/toy so that she can obtain the release of complete submission.
(4-A) For a totally off-the-wall addendum (only for the Battle Star Galactica viewers), I wouldn't love to play a female Cylon prisoner who falls into the hands of a lone human resistance fighter. I would set it on one of the Twelve Colonies that does not come into play in the series. In other words, this does not take place on the Battle Star Galactica. I'm stealing the setting, not the characters.
Initially, the male, dominant resistance fighter would treat my Cylon character as set out in (4). He sees her as not human, a robot, akin to a rubber-blow-up-doll in short. But after he puts her through some pretty horrendous, humiliating experiences, he begins to realize that she is more than just a robot. She has emotions, dreams. And he tries to slowly build a more romantic relationship with this enemy who is both less than and more than human. If that proves to difficult psychologically, it might work with the other player breaking the male role into two characters. We have the "bad cop" who has initial control of my Cylon. And then we have the good cop later who tries to salvage her, establish a more romantic relationship [In discussions with Cammulus, so essentially claimed for now]
