Switch/Equal

"I'd like to hear about the other two scenarios." Josh said. Shen raised a single brow, but simply launched into the explanation.

"For those who consider themselves my equal, we have Partners in Crime. You are someone who could be a useful ally to me, such as a merchant, noble, or warlord. I enter into a partnership with you intending solely to use your position to consolidate my own, but instead, it quickly turns erotic, even romantic. This scenario has no set kinks, and how dominant we are with other characters is up to your choices - we can do anything from conquering all of China as doms who consider each other equals, to losing repeatedly and getting fucked together.

"On the other hand, if you were hoping for a hardcoded switch between being the dominant and the submissive partner, there's Phoenix Reborn. In this one, I am being sold at a **** market. You purchase me and at the start I am properly obedient, doing whatever you say. However, your treatment ruffles my feathers, so to speak, and I end up retaking control from you, at which point I will treat you like you treated me. Obviously, the kinks involved in this scenario are entirely up to you, as I will mirror anything you do to me back onto you once I am no longer a ****."

With that, Shen fell silent and waited for Josh to make his choice.
