General for discussion of Human Domestication Guide & related fiction.trips-bloom edition>What is HDG?HDG is a collective kink writing project about the Affini (an advanced precursor civilization from outer space), who aggressively care for every other species in the universe. They have finally turned their glittery eyes on future grimderp hypercapitalist nightmare humanity. Using their natural charisma and various classes of Xenodrugs, they aim to make Florets (d̶o̶c̶i̶l̶e̶,̶ ̶d̶r̶u̶g̶ ̶a̶d̶d̶l̶e̶d̶ ̶p̶e̶t̶s̶ loved and cared for individuals) of us all! But don't worry, they always have everyone's best interests at heart, even if their methods aren't even remotely consensual~>Where can I read it?Read the original story here https://readonlymind.com/@GlitchyRobo/HumanDomesticationGuide/or check other stories on ROM https://readonlymind.com/search/?q=%23Human_Domestication_Guideor Ao3 https://archiveofourown.org/tags/Human%20Domestication%20Guide%20-%20GlitchyRobo/worksor the wiki: https://hdg.wiki/thread spaced for dissenting: https://desuarchive.org/trash/thread/84002624
Undersea research base at the bottom of Enceladus' frozen ocean who somehow gets a message from Terra after almost a decade of silence, that was somehow able to reach them through miles of solid ice and water, asking if they are warm and safe, and if they'd like for them to bring some hot chocolate and extra blankets. The crew assumes it's another hallucination and ignores it.
Plant that can cure my fucking ADHD
>>84087516They certainly can fix your ADHD, but they're just as likely to decide that, since there's no reason that *you* need to remember your obligations when your plant can do that for you, they might as well intensify it instead.There are affini that increase the symptoms of adhd in their florets, only to give to them normal ability to focus the moment there's something they would *want* to focus on.
"Missing Floret" posters stapled to telephone poles, trees, and sleeping Affini around the neighborhood, pleading with anyone reading that if they've seen a 3 cubic meter highly polished stone cube recently, to please contact their owner, who misses them dearly.
>>84088464NOOOOOOOOO
>>84088360I love that... ffini making me worseI'd personally want to try going manic if they could manage it safely. feels nice until you have to deal with the consequences of your actions lol...
Highly polished stone cube floret enjoying their time at the playground when a missing poster of them is taped to them
>>84089641Confused at how a stone cube can be sapient but hugging the cube all the same.
>>84089641Two indies are reading this poster, one of them insisting that they saw the highly polished stone cube in a Free Terran floret beheading video on the darkweb (this rumor always spreads every time a floret is reported missing)
>>84089798>Free Terran floret beheading videoSurely not even Ferals would do something like that.
>>84089967Everybody claims to have seen one, or knows someone who's seen one, or heard about one that's going around, but nobody ever seems to have a link.
>>84089798I don't think I'd wanna see that :(
>>84089771They greatly appreciate the hug!>>84089798There was this one i had seen of florets cutting each other's heads off, but it was definitely a fetish thing.
Indie at the park getting her hair slowly and lovingly brushed by an affini hairstylist. Feralist rescue flort who says something nasty to her. Affini owner who injects her with enough class A to knock her on her ass for hours. Feralist flort who writhes on the ground. Long hair indie who coos, "how *adorable*, can I give her a belly rub?" Affini owner who says "I might take offense if you didn't!" Feralist flort and longhair indie cuddling together in the grass, indie stroking feralists belly.
>>84090334This is at the same park, you can tell by the bird florts singing loudly about how they wanna fuck
>>84089798Actually made me realize how sort of one-note the Accord can come across as sometimes.There are more enemies than just the military industrial complex and the corporate oligarchy. But whenever I think of the phrase "feral combatant" the only thing I can think of is a John Terra style jarhead.Where are the religious extremists? The criminal syndicates? The political agitators? Hell, where are the blackshirts or corporate security or glowies? Why is it always just the Terran military getting molested?
>>84090436They are a little too common, but I do think I’ve seen most of those other options in fics before.
>>84090436Because they're all fighting internally and not near enough to the fringes for getting raped by plants.All that actually makes it back to the Accord about the Affini is basically just ghost stories, no escapees, no survivors, hell not even ship wrecks.All most of the Accord knows about the plants is that they're basically the boogiemen to end all boogiemen, and anyone with the actual means to get away from that probably will.
>>84090436that sounds fun actually, I'd read a story about a bunch of mafia guys getting flortedsopranos crossover maybe
>>84090436>>84090813They do also get florn maybe sometimes, but it isn't much and does very little to help the 100% abduction rate situation
>>84090436>Why is it always just the Terran military getting molested?Well they are the first in the line of contactAlso affinis have an edging kink and don't touch the earth for some reason
>>84091288That's cruel, don't they know we're suffering down here right now?
>>84091288>Also affinis have an edging kinkTracks
Floret that stares
>>84093840at anything in particular or just likes to see
>>84093998At you.
>>84093998I stare at walls some times
I used to stare at the sky until it went all wibbly
>>84094227Same! It was fun!
>>84094271I wish I still could, but it just hasn't happened in a while.
mistress who calls u her baby
>>84090436>The criminal syndicatesthugflort...
>>84095633Flort that can do the thugshaker...Flort that can do the bugshaker...
being approached by several affini who demand i do the "flort shaker" in exchange for having my belly rubbed
>>84095633Goonflort.
>>84094142waving at the floret who stares at me!
>>84095628mmommy mommy mommy!! mommy!!! mama!!!! mom!!!! affini whose, um, who id, uh
>>84095887I don't even really want to have my belly rubbed.
>>84096480They blink and continue staring.
>>84096807heh. 'the blinker'... nice blinking pal. classic floret who stares at you behavior. nide staring with you buddy *im not paying attention to where im going and bang my face against a lampost*
>>84096880They continue staring with the very vauge implication of concern.
>But supposing the world has become “filled up”, so to speak, with Affini protectorates, such as there exist no tyranny and oppression worthy of the name against which to struggle? Experience suggests that if sophonts cannot struggle on behalf of a just cause because that just cause was victorious in an earlier generation, then they will struggle against the just cause. They will struggle for the sake of struggle. They will struggle, in other words, out of a certain boredom: for they cannot imagine living in a world without struggle. And if the greater part of the world in which they live is characterized by peaceful and prosperous domestication, then they will struggle against that peace and prosperity, and against domestication.
>>84097128'experience' being some truly dumb anecdote no doubt
>>84097184They saw a floret cry bc their owner wouldn't let them eat styrofoam
>>84097973cruel owner. maybe they're right
>>84095628Thinking about this makes me feel warmer inside than any of the other pet names I like. I think there might be something seriously wrong with me, internally
>>84095628>>84096509>>84098251i'm just imagining being like a scared feral capture or something who's only been a floret for a few days and then my mistress picks me up and i'm expecting her to hurt me but she just squeezes me and tells me that i'm her baby and and and
>>84099015instantly rehabilitate scared ferals with this one weird trick
>starving to death inside a crumbling metal can out in the void between stars while picking up propaganda broadcasts of captured free terrans playing and relaxing and being cared for so gently and lovingly
>>84099504just turn on the distress beacon man what do you have to lose
>>84099015Imagine having a panic attack and biting her.
>>84100657You'd still be har baby, scared and shaking, its not like teeth as little as yours would ever actually hurt her after all.
>>84100657aww... poor baby, this is all so new and scary for them. they're just a little overstimulated and lashing out, it's not their fault. i think a little medicine to help them feel calm, giving them a vine to chew on, and some quiet cuddling time would be a good idea.
>>84090436We had a greentext/debate a while ago about a Hatfield-McCoy thing where they kept trying to kill each other and Affini who domesticated their kin that they all ended up domesticated and when the Affini discovered their long lost cousin who skipped down to avoid their family they were domesticated as a matter of procedure, their whole genetic line being "domesticate on site."
>>84101065that's really hot... forcibly domesticated because of your gene line even though you didn't do anything wrong, fuck. if i get domesticated i want it to be for something similarly unfair and out of my hands
>>84101097>B-b-but I didn't do anything!>Our records indicate that 100% of your first degree genetic relatives, 95% of your second degree genetic relatives, and 73.5% of your third degree genetic relatives have had to be forcibly domesticated after committing or attempting to inflict severe or lethal harm on themselves or another sophont.>But that's why I left them, I'm the good one!>Oh of course you are petal, and as a floret you'll be an even better one
>>84099504PULL YOUR SELF TOGETHER PRIVATEYOURE NOT HERE TO BE -COMFORTABLE-YOU'RE HERE TO FIGHT UNTILL THE LAST MAN FOR THE FREEDOM OF TERRA, FOR THE FUTURE OF OUR SOCIETY -NAY- OUR VERRY SPECIES!>>84099522HIS VERRY SOUL AND HUMANITY, THATS WHAT!LISTEN TO ME! YOU AND ALL OTHERS; THE DOUBTFULL, THE WEAKWILLED, THE QUIETLY UNHAPPY OCCUPIED MASSES AND EVEN THE VILE COLABORATOR SPECIES TRAITORS!WE ARE HUMANITY! WE RELY ON NOONE BUT OUR OWN! WE ARE BORN TO INHERIT THE STARS! US, NOT SOME DIGUSTING RAPIST SHRUBBERY!OUR WILL SHALL NOT BE BROKEN SO EASILY! YOU THINK WE DONT HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE, WITH LONG HUNGER SIEGES? HA! YOUVE ANOTHER THING COMMING!WE WILL NEVER QUIT! UNTILL THE DAY THAT FINAL VICTORY IS ACHIEVED, THE STRUGGLE CONTUNUES, TO OUR LAST! BETTER TO DIE A HERO THAN TO BE SLAVE TO XENOS MACHINATIONS!GIVE US FREEDOM OR GIVE US DEATH!FREE TERRA!!
>>84101278Awwww, it's you you!You sure loud today, aren't you petal?Its what I love most about you honestly.
>>84101097Being bound to or forced into anything because of my family is a nightmare for me.

Affini that takes all your money
>>84104422Findom Affini (keeps stealing the wads of cash you're hiding under your mattress to prepare for the eventually collapse of the Compact)
Affini that snatches you during the downfall of the Compact government on your homeworld, and then ties you up in vines and forces you to watch as she withdraws all the money from your bank account and burns it in front of you while laughing.And only then tells you that you live in a post scarcity society now
I will never understand findom.
>>84104651Me neither but it's the objectively funniest fetish to me. Someone who might not even be hot says to people "fuck you, you're an ugly piece of shit who's totally beneath me, now give me your money" and they do
>>84104479Flort that's too stupid to buy gold
Explaining crypto in great detail to random affini on the subway and telling them about how to idealy spread the investment to minimize risk spread
flortdom
>>84105492indie so subby they get dom'd by floretssomehow not a seed though
>>84105364Being florted immediately afterwards
terran that drank too much coffee and feels bad
>>84105975Terran that is going to be okay, but should make sure they're drinking other things (WATER) and using the bathroom.
Terran who kept all of his cryptocurrency when the Affini deleted everyone's wallets because he 3D printed all of his coins. He keeps them in a locked chest hidden in his closet under a blanket.
>>84106973Affini warden that knows he isn't gonna pass his self sufficiency exam but doesn't have it in her core to make him get rid of his funnymoney
Recent feralist rescue that snarls and tries to bite you... until you start scratching her under her chin and she falls over, moaning the whole time. She immediately tries to bite your hand if you pull it away.
feralist rescue that bites your hand and chips her tooth on your carbon alloy endoskeleton
Floret who no one was ever anything but nice to with a loving owner who just bites all the time anyway.
>>84106973Dragon!!! Dragon not feralist dragon not feralist!!!
Floret who bites people because she thinks it's funny how people react.
>>84109162Florets that bite eachother
>>84108096>EndoskeletonIf she's biting to the bone it's probably for the best she chips a tooth and learn a lesson
>>84110598yes, but she's also going to learn a lesson from a lot more than the tooth nowit was a very aggressive bite
calling a boy 'finni mommy bc he's nice to me
Floret that's no longer allowed to bite their own nails so they bite your nails
Floret that's here to kick ass and chew bubblegum.
>>84108015spicy terran!
>>84111812And hasn't run out of gum just yet but is very intent on the ass kicking part.
Indie who's reluctantly checked themselves into the sniffles ward since their floretpox still hasn't gone away after weeks. The Affini were nice, and not overly overbearing, and when they heard how long the infection has lasted, they gave them an extra special room that's different from the other patients (one of the walls is a giant mirror for some reason).
(Just now realized I wanted to add onto this)>>84067422 >A human pet would, honestly speaking, act very childish. A lot of maturity is down to life experience and navigating difficulties and hardships, which a Floret is straight out never going to deal with (...) I can imagine a Floret born post-treaty would be a real brat.Somewhat normal Floret/Indie/Psuedoferal who finally got plucked from the edges of known space about a century after the Affini had fully conquered humanity who now gets to experience a John-the-Savage-esque paradigm with every single human they meet as they slum around Terra being a floret.
>>84112752it's called fpox now
>>84112752The mirror is mostly for constant biological analysis without feeling as invasive as a big scary scanner machine, it can take all your vitals while you're standing in front of it and you can check them all for yourself too by tapping the screen and get more specific by pointing at what parts you want more information on. Its necessary to keep track of the infection as it persists and we test different medicines. Especially in advanced and seemingly evolved cases such as this one, being able to identify they strain, and how to fight it makes for a much more effective means of recovery.
Affini who very gradually heals her floret’s extremely deep seeded internalized self loathing and the only slice we see of it is them doing some mundane task like grocery “shopping” but it’s clear there is a lot of work to go!
Affini friend who's constantly showing you videos of her adorable Floret being cute and having fun. You've never met her Floret in-person and she's always cagey about where they're at when you two meet. Eventually, you ask her when you can finally meet her Floret, and she gives in and reveals all the videos are actually simulations of what you'll be like as a Floret and she's just "Waiting for the paperwork to go through."
>>84115232Affini that can't help herself from spoiling you.
