I don't know that I really balance it all that well myself, but I basically just try to write my characters as "normal" people who happen to have magic abilities. Rather than start off with a supervillainess cocktease, I just try to picture how the girl next door, or a wife, or a platonic female friend would suddenly react to having Sex Magic, and see how it goes from there. (Well, ignoring obvious comic book supervillains like Jahi.)<br /><br />Even a good number of my non-Sex Magic erotica characters are more or less regular people who just happen to have powers they one day decide to use to spice up their sex lives. And likewise, the guys may be helpless, but I try not to portray them as complete spineless wimps. Even if they are completely powerless in the situation, its rare they just fold instantly. Even if subbing really excites them, I tend to include some kind of mental struggle. In the end, seeing how either party comes to terms is the real "arc" of the story, beyond just whether the guy cums in the end or not.<br /><br />So, for me, the conflict usually comes from just the normal sorts of reactions people would probably have to things like Sex Magic or Sex Powers. Curiosity, misgivings, arousal, confusion, resistance, seduction, "proper action" vs desire, etc. Rather than use the typical cartoon BDSM tropes, try to picture how an actual couple would get into BDSM. Or picture how a normal person could very easily get carried away by their powers. You can get a lot of mileage over just simple human interaction and reaction. And I think too many writers, of horror, erotica, and hell, lots of different genres, tend to forget that, or at least fail to capture it. Again, not claiming I capture it all that well, either, but I try to.Salamando Flameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04600017462795449281noreply@blogger.com
