It won't be long before we start working, finally, on Asterion's NSFW content. This is what we've all been waiting and building up for, it's hard to express just how hyped we are for it.

We have quite a few ideas for what we want to do, but it's always healthy hearing what you guys want. It gives us a fresh perspective, which can be a game changer considering how we can get tunnel vision from putting so many hours into the game.

Feel free to throw your ideas to see what sticks, but to give some direction I'm giving you these questions. Answer whichever ones you feel comfortable answering — and if you see in this thread a response you're into, give it an upvote.

Without further ado:

1. What are things, sexual positions, acts and/or kinks you'd like the MC and Asterion to explore together?
2. If the MC had the chance to rile up/tease/excite Asterion, what would you like him to do? (For the sake of the discussion, assume that Asterion gave the MC permission to have some fun.)
3. Similarly, what do you think Asterion would do to tease/rile up/excite the MC?
4. Is there something you'd like R&D to do that would, intentionally or not, provide a chance for a NSFW scene? (For example, building a sauna.) 
5. Is there something you'd like the MC and Asterion to do, but you are not sure if Asterion would be comfortable? If yes, what?
6. If the MC's been more reassuring, dominant, bolder with physical contact, Asterion can become more bashful and really get into it. As a player who's been more dominant to Asterion, is there anything you'd like the MC to be able to do to tease him? Or something in NSFW scenes?
7. Likewise, if you have NOT been particularly dominant, what would you like to see?
8. What do you think Asterion is into? Feel free to speculate.

1. i think asterion would be a soft top if the player isnt really dominant 

2. stuff amongst the lines of "my precious little moo" and probably nipple play

3. for a less dominant mc i think asterion flexing would work and for a more dominant mc having asterion say things along the lines of "make me~"

4. the sauna works really well i dont have anything to add to that 

5. perhaps soft bdsm? not sure

6. i think the soft top asterion works so ima gonna say have the mc tease him by sitting on his lap and grinding into asterion

7. asterion being more self confident and making some *bold* decisions 

8. i dont really have anything popping into my head but i would like to see any ideas you guys perhaps have

hmmmm only thing that really comes to mind for me is double ended dildo action if both asterion and MC want to bottom since most of the commenters given ideas i had in mind. Or just toys in general for all your bottom moo's needs. 

im a kink nut lol i love super doms and love watersports but i think astereon mught be a soft top till hes more comfortable with the role then get progressively dom if MC is submissive id like to see him ask for advice from some of the other patrons in private like Luke i like their interactions together;) i think as a bottom Astereon  would be super submissive and be into leather or nipple play but would hate bondage to put a nice spin on things. As a wierd quirk i think he would be not exactly aloof but blunt when asking about sex but top or bottom hed ask the others about it in secret (testing his freedom so to speak by doing things privately)

1. For position, probably a traditional one that allows the CG(s) to include the MC's dick, Ass-terion's ass and dick at the same time. Personally, nipple play, rimming, lactation would be most appreciated. Since we don't want to hurt Asterion, let's pamper him and be gentle to him

2. For now, I can only think of kabedon-ing him, squeezing his butt and petting his tail

3. Grinding his glute in the MC's crotch, or squeezing his own boobs and cheeks in front of the MC (you know which cheeks I'm talking about)

4. An erotic massage room, with Asterion as the massager

5. No, just ask Asterion before doing anything to him

6. Put him in a leash or tie him up (in their quarter only, thank you very much)

7. Pass

8. As mentioned above, nipple play, slammed against a wall, having his tail played with. Oh right, forgot about the musk

1. I think some soft slave play might work really well. Have Asterion really want to pamper the MC, play up how he's always been trying to put himself in a subordinate role, let him really go wild with that. Maybe make Asterion have to talk MC into letting him do so, especially if they've made lots of "stop calling me master" choices. There's ways to eroticize the MC's ability to give "orders" and (on top of being HOT) it's a not uncommonly reported method of taking agency over past abuse, to turn it into kinky scenarios (though it should be emphasized that this isn't an approach that automatically works for everyone.)
2. You could use the "control over Asterion's body" to some interesting effect, I think. Maybe as simple as a "...so what happens if I just ORDER you to become horny? Does that work?"
3. I can see Asterion spouting extremely elegant and extravagant, to the point of being a little self consciously silly, poetic praises of whatever part of MC's body his lips happen to on right now.
4. 'Sauna' is definitely good. But I'd also consider having horny possible extensions to already existing R&D projects, if they are completed AFTER the relationship becomes sexual. The Gym and the Pool come to immediate mind as good possibilities.
5. I think Asterion might conceivably be uncomfortable with a sling/sex swing, or anything which might remind him of the cow Daedalus built Pasiphae. 
6. The scene where the MC examines the nose ring, and handling it put Asterion almost into a trance, seems me to be foreshadowing horny applications. Like, gentle pressure down on it to get him on his knees, for example.
7. Asterion's got far too much chest and torso in general to not be able to use it to good effect. Like just bury MC's face between his pecs.
8. I think Asterion's the kind of person who falls in love with someone over a shared task (like, well, running a hotel) But like, the kind of "collaborators to friends to lovers" path. So i think he'd like some activity that then turns into passionately making out. I could see him getting the kind of performance anxiety that comes from having to initiate sex from like a cold start, as it were. I could see him much preferring sort of semi-spontaneous "oh you're brushing my back, oh, something about this feels good..." kind of scenario. Similarly, I could see him liking scenarios where he doesn't have to think about things, doesn't have to make decisions, where he can just be told "use your physical strength and sexy man-body in such and such a way." He'd be submissive because he's got the kind of personality that feels the guilty and therefore more uncomfortable with the sex the more responsible for it they are, so he'd like someone else to call the shots.

1. I can’t speak much for the question as it relates the MC being in the dominant position, but I could definitely see some potential pet play combined with role reversal where the Asterion is filling the role of “master” while the MC is the “servant”/ “Pet”. Some other options might be having them explore sensory deprivation, or in the case of a fully dominant Asterion in late chapters, potentially having the MC fill the role of a service top. Although tbh it would be great to see Asterion potentially taking the top position alongside his bottom position. Having Asterion overstimulate the MC would also be really nice.
2. For sure could see the MC playing with either Asterion's tail, his chest, or his nose ring as part of getting him aroused. I could also see the MC showering Asterion with praise as part of getting the bull more into it.
3. Honestly I’d love to see Asterion becoming more bold and start teasing the MC about their roles. I could see him doing a sort of “you can look but don’t touch” act when he’s stripped down to either just underwear or fully nude. Maybe coming up behind the MC while they’re working and just whispering in their ear about what Asterion wants to do the MC/questioning the MC about what precisely he wants Asterion to do to him.
4. The idea of a sauna is one that is particularly appealing for an NSFW scene. Although the gym is already in the game, I could see a nude shower scene/locker room scene in the gym working well. I could totally see a theater/cinema being a good location to develop with R&D that leads to a little fun in the darkened room between MC and Asterion.
5. Bondage definitely fits this category. It’s something I’d love to see them explore, but I don’t know if I can really picture Asterion being totally cool with it. At least at first.
6. Don’t really have much of an answer for this one, so I’ll skip it for now.
7. I’d think a good answer to this might be having Asterion gradually become more dominant over time, with or without the MCs intervention. I understand the prevailing opinion is that Asterion’s pretty heavily a sub but it would be interesting to see him fleshed out more as a true verse, rather than having a particular leaning innately. Honestly just getting to see Asterion acting more confident and dominant on his own over time would be great I think. 
8. Off the top of my head, nipple play and musk come to mind. Continuing off of my prior answer, I could rather easily see him being into either position in either case for what he’s into.

The way I RAN to make an account to reply to this topic. I am so very excited to hear you are working on this and I love the fact that you are encouraging community engagement for it. You guys are the best. 

1. I think with Asterion being our precious virgin star, it would be most appropriate to continue the “slow-burn” approach the novel has had so far. Before the actually sex, it would be great to have a scene or two (or ten) where the lovers engage in more innocent acts. That said, when it comes to the sex, I think it would only be appropriate story-wise for the first time to be very vanilla missionary with lots of eye contact. Imagine a CG where MC is knocking on the back door and decides to have a taste. To have the bull look down over his body and past his bull-hood to make flustered eye contact with his love who is gently tonguing his South Star — the bull being completely enraptured by new sensations after millennia of misery and torture — would be poetry. I want to see every involuntary reaction from that bull’s face as he finally gets his chance to feel real carnal pleasure. When the entry is made, I want that eye contact and closeness to continue. Asterion being the strong man he is, would be able to power bottom his way into a closer and more intimate position where the two are able to kiss and feel each other and bask in each other’s love while engaging in this, the ultimate act of intimacy. Once the bull acclimates himself to the feeling of receiving his sweetheart’s sex, I want to see the fleeting away of momentary pain melt into not just carnal pleasure, but loving correctness. Finally after so long, the bull is exactly where he ought to be doing what deserves. He wanted this for so much longer than he even realized. I want his first act to culminate in feelings of love that he — and quite possibly MC — never thought attainable. 
2. I’d love a scene where a tender cuddle looking out the window turns a bit more daringly explorative vis a vis groping, necking, extended making out. Fluster. That. Bull. Tug on his nose ring, kiss along his neck until you find the spot that makes him moan the loudest, twirl his tail in your fingers, grope his bara tiddies, flick his nipple, trace the outline of his bull hood in his pants. I have full confidence that the writers have thought extensively about this and will deliver.
3. Then a scene where our bull turns the tables on MC would be chef’s kiss. If MC has expressed being flustered by having Asterion mount him, it would only be poetic to have Asterion exert that over MC in a more sexually exciting way: extended necking, nipple play, groping, etc. leading to Asterion making the next step to hand stuff and mouth stuff. Verbal teasing throughout all of this is almost assumed. 
4. Sauna makes the most sense here. I don’t think I have too much to add that others haven’t already said.
5. Throughout the novel so far, MC has been rightfully cautious and aware of the bull’s feelings, so I don’t think it would be very appropriate for him to cross lines with sexual acts or kinks, but what I think might actually happen is that, while drunk, the MC might get frisky while him and Asterion are in the public areas of the hotel. I could see this causing a bit of a disagreement between the two of them.
6. I think I addressed this earlier when I got carried away by horny thoughts.
7. Asterion seems to have a side of him that wants the MC to be more dominant. I would love to see Asterion become a power bottom in this case. It would be interesting to create a dynamic where Asterion encourages the MC into situations where MC explores the bull’s body. An “I’ll close my eyes. Touch me wherever you’d like” sort of scene would be magical. (I'm drawing inspiration from Brogulls by AntiDev here.)
8. I think Asterion would be into extended foreplay and kissing for sure. Teasing verbally and physically seems to be his favorite way to encourage intimacy. I think he would be just as much into smelling natural body odors as the MC seems to be. EDGING. Hoo boy. A scene where MC edges a big bull load out of Asterion would be GOTY stuff. I think just the lightest form of bondage would make sense. Nothing more than a linen tied to a bed post or even self restraint by way of holding his hands behind said bed post while the MC has his way with Asterion’s body. I could see Asterion being really into MC’s cum — like an “anything you create is perfect” sort of angle. 

I’m going to stop myself here. I don’t want to gush too much. (Double entendre unintended) but thank you all again for this wonderful novel and this opportunity to voice our opinions and desires about it. <3 

1. For sexual positions they should try the cowgirl for obvious reasons, also Asterion's pectorals demand worship and they should attempt the ultimate kink of being a married couple.
2. Asterion acts all innocent and naive but with all his experience he actually knows how to be very manipulative, and i'd like for MC to learn how to notice and call out on that feingned naivety.
3. Probably what he already does, of calling him my lord, my king, perhaps he could go even further and call him my god or daddy.
4. Something like a dark room or sex dungeon. I understand this would be unusual for an hotel but there's no reason we shouldn't have and unapologetic culturaly gay facility within the hotel.
5. Experiment with the hotel magic to make some body modifications on Asterion just for fun. Like changing his genitalia or making him more beast like. This could get uncomfortably kinky depending on what you do, but that was the point of the question.
6. Perhaps some casual and inappropriate teasing, maybe tease on what Asterion would like to happen if the guests were to have their way with him.
7. Power bottom Asterion, i rather dislike that the default for bottoms is to be submissive, i prefer when the bottom calls the shots and express the fun their are having.
8. Maybe a date by the pool, it seems that water makes him feel at home due to his lineage. with some private playing of the lyre that has been a constant form of entertainment even when he was in isolation.

1. I personally am fine with any position.

2. Assuming Asterion is fine with it, then some thinly veiled promises, less SFW PDA, etc.

3. Refer to answer 2.

4. Sauna, a hot spring, things like that. Also, while not R&D, it would be interesting to create a new, binding contract that forces both to abide by a safe word and requires both parties to consent before sex.

5. I feel Asterion might be alright with certain public displays (see answers below), but draw the line at full on public sex, so if the room has no lock, no sex. Personally, I'd enjoy some optional watersports content, but am unsure how he would feel about it. Potential threesomes seem like they're a no-go. BDSM is off the table, but leather might still be appealing to him.

6. A few public ass grabs or a foot on his bulge below the dining area table. 

7. Trapping the MC against a wall for some flirting/teasing, some quick gropes during a hug. For some scenes, I'd enjoy the option for a dominant bottom Asterion.

8. I feel Asterion might have developed a slight praise kink, maybe a breeding kink, musk seems likely. He'd love more soft, tender lovemaking mixed in with some of the kinkier stuff, in my opinion.

I have another thought that isn't directly about sex with Asterion, but the consequences afterwards.

News travels fast around the hotel, so I'd love a scene where Luke being Luke gets a devilish grin on his face and approaches MC saying something along the lines of "So I've heard you had some angus" or "So you fucked the minotaur" (something with an innuendo haha) and while MC is getting a bit embarrassed by Luke being so direct, Asterion sneaks up behind Luke, leans down, and blurts out "Yup" or some kind of confirmation in a way that unexpectedly and completely flusters Luke.

I think the tables being turned on Luke would be really funny, and it would be a nice scene where Asterion is confident in his sexuality and relationship with MC. 

1. There's a lot to imagine, but a short list for me is oral with MC gripping Asterion's horns, doggy style with Asterion bottoming, cow girl with MC bottoming, and missionary with Asterion topping.

2. Tugging Asterion's tail or nose ring if he's wearing it. Another brushing scene but Mc brushing lower and lower. Horny one liners, like complimenting Asterion's fingering technique when he plays his lyre, though that might be more Luke's thing than MC.

3.  Asterion throwing his weight around MC, like picking him up, dragging his through the hotel, or pinning him down/to a wall. When he does that one smoldering stare too, that alone works like a charm.

4. A movie theater would be a really fun and romantic project, a screening room for a couple dozen people, and as the movie runs Asterion and MC hold hands in the dark... Or an observatory on top of the hotel, so Luke can map the stars, but afterwards MC and Asterion have a passionate moment under the stars. An art studio where everyone can workshop and create but also MC and  Asterion can mess around. Having a project that's only available to your chose background in a cool idea and a lot can come from that.

5. Maybe some butt slapping, or rougher sex. That as far as I'd go.

6. MC giving "orders" for Asterion to pose for him (maybe if MC has the Arts background he'd draw him in lewd positions). Touching or groping that minotaur in public but just out of sight of other guests, the risk of getting caught. Maybe MC could conjure up sextoys for Asterion and just leave them  in his room.

7. MC pampering the minotaur, brushing and  rubbing oils in his fur, massaging his legs and hooves, feeding him meals that MC cooked. Showering him with compliments to his size, scent, warmth, etc.

8. Maybe role reversal where he's the "master" and MC is the "prisoner" and he'll "treat you  the way you treat me" role play. Asterion is a bottom  [certainly] and loves all things related to "serving" the MC but I think he REALLY wants TO WANT to top MC but needs encouragement to get there. He likes wrestling and it seems that would be part of the foreplay to him. It's my understanding that Asterion is most likely a virgin (unless things happened between him and childhood friend Phoenes) so I'm not sure if HE really knows what he wants aside from pleasing MC, who conversely just wants to please Asterion.

I'm really excited to see what happens between Asterion and MC, the art and story of this game are amazing! Can't wait to fuck the minotaur!

1. To be honest, I’d love to just see some very classic positions. Missionary is probably a safe bet to start and cowgirl and reverse cowgirl could also be cute. Would also be really nice to have the two 69 each-other. Kink wise, I’d love to see the MC and Asterion, regardless of who is more dominant, trading praise of one another in a form of Praise Kink. I’d also love to see Asterion and the MC performing aftercare, especially if in the case of Asterion performing it after filling the role of a service top. In regards to being a service top, while I understand generally Asterion meant as a bottom, it feels like it could potentially be interesting and IC to have him give topping a try at least once while he and the MC explore their interests more(this statement applies to both dominant and submissive understandings of Asterion). Especially later on once Asterion has grown more comfortable with performing these sorts of acts with the MC. That said, MC service top could also work really well in the event of a more dominant Asterion. Another fun scenario might be to have the MC dive under the desk to give Asterion a little tlc(blowjob+fingering) while the bull is working. Whatever it is though, the consent should be clear and complete from all angles. The power dynamic between the two makes this critically important.
2. As mentioned above, the MC engaging in teasing while Asterion is working could be fun, so long as nobody else is around(could make for a fun scenario where the MC is accidentally caught being lewd towards the bull by Luke/Kota). A grope here, some whispered sweet nothings there. Perhaps idly playing with Asterion’s tail while they’re eating dinner together. A kabedon scene could also make for some fun teasing from the MC to Asterion.
3. Regardless of how dominant he is, I’d imagine Asterion taking a very sweet approach to teasing. Maybe he pins the MC against the couch and tells him how beautiful Asterion finds the MC to be. Perhaps he writes sweet poetry expressing his love for the MC. He might walk up from behind the MC and pull him into a hug while whispering sweet nothings in his ear. Unconsciously, his tail might wrap around the MCs leg. Overall I imagine him being a very sweet/well meaning sort when it comes to how he riles up the MC.
4. I don’t really have anything for this that hasn’t been said already. A sauna would certainly be a nice addition though.
5. Both excessive/noticeable PDAs feels like something Asterion might not be comfortable with, especially early on in the dynamic of the two as a couple. Leather and Bondage also feel like kinks he might not be comfortable with, bondage because of his many centuries of being bound to the will of the Masters. Meanwhile he might be a bit uncomfortable with leather since it’s A)Typically made of cowhide, and B)potentially by association to the hollow cow made for Pasiphae which was covered in a cow hide. 
6. Dominance wise, I would adore seeing the MC being a very very reassuring dom in the case that you chose to be more dominant. Very gentle, very loving, always making sure Asterion is comfortable with whatever they’ve been doing. As I said above it could be fun to have Asterion act as a service top at least once but I’d imagine that would require a fair bit of setup and would have to come later on down the line closer to the end of the game probably. But overall just, having the MC being a gentle dom.
7. As it regards Asterion, supposing the MC has not been filling the dominant role, we could potentially see Asterion slowly stepping in instead to fill the role of dom. Whether it's as a power bottom maybe, or bottom-leaning switch, it would be a nice reflection of the bulls growing confidence. Having him become more bold and start being more forward with his teasing.
8. There’s plenty of things Asterion might be into but kinda the few I’d imagine being the most likely would be a Praise kink(giving and receiving probably), musk maybe, body worship(again, both giving and receiving), and cuddling(I bet he’s a big time cuddler, and the wrestling scene gives me the impression he’d be fine as either big spoon or little spoon).

First off, I gotta say the interactive sex scene with Khenbish + Tuan was impressively written and basically everything I could have hoped for, so kudos on that!

Here are my thoughts + ideas for Asterion:

1. Vanila stuff is fine, and I think oral for Asterion, oral for MC. 69ing, and frot would be the main things I'd love to see. Maybe stradding his muscled chest while both nude. Maybe something where the MC gets Asterion to go on all fours, before ducking under him and 'milking' him ;)

2. Tail tugging, tail licking/nibbling or gentle crotch groping. Slapping on the ass. Biting/licking pecs + nipples. 

3. Hmm, probably put his bovine tongue to use in some teasing fashion.

4. Some random ideas: Pool scene unlock: (Asterion or MC loses their swimming clothes while swimming, or MC/Asterion gets frisky and dives underwater to do naughty things to the other)

   Gym scene unlock: (Asterion tries to bench press a hefty amount, MC has some kinky fun with his lower half.)

 Shower scene unlock: (After a particularly messy R+D project MC and/or Asterion get covered in dirt or mud and go to wash off, before being joined by the other as a surprise.)

Restaurant/Bar scene unlock: (New fancy booths/tables - maybe with tablecloths - lead to MC/Asterion having a dinner date that leads to either one 'dropping a utensil' and ending up between the legs of the other - cleverly concealed but still in public.) 

Office/work scene unlock: (Similar to the above scene, but instead its when MC or Asterion is busily working at a desk and the other 'interrupts them' and hides under the desk while other employees come and go.)

5. Probably something like the public sex scene above is as risqué as I would get.

6. Not sure!

7. Asterion taking charge, showing initiative or being surprisingly sexually aggressive - but still gentle. 

8. Worshipping the MC sexually, putting MC's pleasure above his own much to MC's annoyance. Perhaps having his tail played with during sex being a guilty pleasure of his. 

1: Missionary, cowgirl, 69ing, ball-sucking and analingus. Would not like to top Asterion as it can be painful when you're not used to it, hurting the moo is a no-no

2 and 3: I'd like to see lots of campy innuendo stuff between MC and Asterion like you see in the Carry On movies. Lots of double entendres.

4: Turkish style bath-house, or anything with a large body of water that allows for underwater sex

5: Anything I doubt Asterion wants to do, I wouldn't want to do, stuff that involves pain or even roleplaying with Asterion in a subservient position like a maid. I want him to be empowered. I also don't want body modification as I want Asterion to be "himself"

6: I'd like to see MC put his fingers in Asterions mouth, or have Asterion suck his thumb during sex, I find that insanely hot

7: Scooping up MC in his arms like a baby, marching down the hall, kicking open the door to the bedroom, and the rest writes itself

8: I want to say wrestling, but the wrestling scene in the original labyrinth didn't feel like it was sexually motivated on Asterions part, so I'm not sure. Aside from that, nipple-play

Expanding on points two and three, I think a scene that's similar to this sketch would be funny, where MC and Asterion are flirting, and then Luke come in and ruins everything

In keeping things simple and enjoyable:

1. Definitely missionary, while staring into each others eyes.

                A) as a kink, neck biting

2. Fingering is always a plus in media 

3. Nipple biting, using his furry body to rub MC's entire body

4. Sauna or bath house sound perfect

5. Idk maybe analingus

6. Holding on to his horns while pulling in for a dominating kiss, or, licking along the "gooch" line while staring into his eyes

7. Definitely Asterion doing more groping or guiding the MC's hands to where he wants them

8. Asterion seems to be fond of the MC natural musk (and vice versa)... that should definitely be remembered for the nsfw scenes

it would be nice to choose to be dom or sub with Asterion if I am being honest. Bdsm with him is a no go for me considering what he has been through. Chest play and tail play would be pretty hot considering that tail play has happened before, and playful wrestling  and taunting would be nice. Frotting would be pretty hot as well ( with you sitting on top of Asterions body and masterbating together with both penises pressed against each other) ass play could be nice with Asterion too.  One thing I'd really like to hear is asterion during these scenes. (I enjoyed his humming very much and I think grunting will be good if they had a play wrestling scene again). Other than what I had in mind right  now,  I'm sure whatever  y'all think of will be great ^^ you and the team makes great content and I can't wait for this update!

Wish I had seen this thread earlier. Seems like almost everything I'd like to say has already been said, but I'll put in my two cents regardless.

1. I like the pacing and feel of their relationship so far and expect their initial sexual encounters to be something similar to the kissing scene, very sweet and romantic with lots of foreplay. On a general note I'd like for the MC to really explore the implications of being intimate with a mythical to the fullest, be it in more innocent and cuddly situations or during sex. You've already been doing this incredibly well with putting these bovine features to good use and I can't get enough of it! The nose ring scene, all the ear scratches and tail petting are great! Having a BJ scene with some facefucking using the horns as leverage could be really hot. I guess another part of this relationship with a mythical that could come into play is Asterion's divine pedigree and how he is fit to be a hero of legend. Our Little Star seems more than happy to show off his athletic prowess and, I think it'd be fun for MC to indulge in some muscle worship and showered the Moo with all the praise he deserves with a bit of BO sprinkled in every now and then. With pectorals like that, MC would be crazy to let the opportunity for some tit fucking to pass by. Nipple play would be pretty nice on top of that, maybe down the line seeing if Asterions would be up for some piercings. Nothing specific comes to mind right now, but I'd love to see what kind of kinky shit (act or object) MC and Asterion can come up with using The Hotel's magic and clever contracts. If we are talking exclusively about personal preference, I always find rimming very hot and I'd love a scene with it regardless of it being MC or Asterion on the receiving end. I feel like it would be a missed opportunity if there is not even a mention of "milking the bull" at some point. To that end, prostate massages with fingers or a toy or perhaps rusty trombone would be wonderful. I bet with how athletic Asterion is he could also be surprisingly flexible. Having him lay on his back and kick his hooves towards his head, exposing himself so the MC could have at it untill coaxing Asterion into giving himself a facial would make me very happy too.
2. I think he would most likely keep up with what's been proven to work. He seems to get a kick out of getting him flustered, of which PDA, praising, calling him things like majesty and that sort of thing seem to work exceptionally well. I'd like him to be more forward with that while still keeping it PG and proper for the work environment in front of the guests, maybe tugging him down by the collar to sneak in a more passionate kiss when no one is looking every now and then. All bets are off in private settings tho. I demand more play time with his nose ring and lots of tail stroking!
3. With how he mentions that the Muses have been kind to him, I wonder if Erato in particular hasn't been more generous, after he and MC officially became "a thing". Maybe he has a separate book reserved for his more spicy works and MC finds it on accident or not. From them on the bull could sneak in some of those works around their office or slip one on a stack of papers that are due a review from MC. Around the more close members of staff I could also imagine him using his feigned innocence to some effect and make MC flustered. In case he grows bold idt it would be out of character for him to take advantage of the weird non euclidian space and steal MC away from his duties for some moments of heathy teasing away from prying eyes
4. It would be nice to have a project for building spaces and workshops dedicated to artistic pursuits. Dance classes sound like a good opportunity to get up close and personal with a partner and that can have some unintended effects. Drawing or painting classes with live models also could be fun in that regard! Maybe even a pottery workshop to have the cliche of a  couple working together on the same wheel. With Asterion's lack of coordination for finer hand movements that seems appropriate. The potential is also there for expanding on the gym or having a new project altogether that focuses on sporting areas. Aside from the locker room shenanigans, having the characters play or teach one another can get pretty touchy. On a similar vein, that could be expanded on to having a full blown Olympic event, which would naturally follow the traditions of the past, with the participating athletes completely nude ;)
5. Wouldn't mind some very light BDSM, perhaps some magically induced orgasm denial/edging and body mods, like piercings earrings and such.
6. Nothing that I haven't mentioned previously already comes to mind atm. Might edit somethig in later
7. Would be nice getting more of what we got during the Deep Labyrinth section, a more confident Asterion that gets to challenge MC in playful ways, makes his wants known without mincing words and takes the initiative. Having him become a power bottom sounds pretty hot. Also wouldn't mind if he ends up discovering himself as a verse/switch in this case.
8. Cuddling, praise, physical exertion, muscle play, showing off/very light exhibitionism

So. I hope, I'm not to late. :)

1. Just about anything I can imagine, as long as it happens in privacy and by mutual consent. However, I would like Asterion to get a more top-like, dominant role during NSFW scenes. It can be implemented during the straightforward choice before the scene, or by using mechanic, that will give Asterion some "dominant/submissive points" according to the player's choices before their relationships come to sex. But I really want Asterion to be a Master's master, even just sometimes. ;)
2. Well, I can really see it as it already is: some accidental (or not so accidental) touch, some accidental peek, some compliments here and there. I'd prefer the first scene to be driven just by emotions and instincts, maybe after the talk and the kiss... I've had it in my life, and for me it's the best option: no teasing, no riling up, just kiss, and the next thing you know - you're already making love. Of course, it can become really kinky later, but the first time is always goes on emotions and instincts. Maybe a bottle or two of vine before would be a good start. :)
3. I think, he's doing it already, and by all means, very well (pool scene is VERY exciting). MC needs just get out this "we're just business partners" stick out of his ass, and Asterion should have less of this "Master this, Master that", though he's getting rid of it as of chapter 16 (as far as I got yet).
4. Good idea, I'd also like to Asterion see the MC naked, and appreciate it, maybe. See him not only as a friend, or Master, or "business partner", but as someone sexually appealing. Well, MC have already seen Asterion naked: at least during the first chapters (though it wasn't sexy, mind you) or during the changing room scene. The last one would imply that Asterion sees MC changing too, but it's not explicitly said. As far as I can tell, there is not much text, implying that Asterion looks at MC with some sexy thoughts. I assuming it's the lack of his experience in such things, but I currently can't really imagine them making sex without going by instinct or after thorough preparation: thought here, glance there... P and Storm are good example. :)
5. Anything that would remind him of his previous traumas. So, any rough BDSM with Asterion as a sub is out of question, at least before MC and the minotaur can get more comfortable on a kinky side of love. Asterion being a dom is more imaginable, though I don't think he would be comfortable in hurting his Master and friend.
6. Can't say. I'd prefer to see my Asterion as (finally) more dominant. And I'm not the guy who can seduce someone without feeling absolutely awkward. :D
7. Well, he can really be more bold with physical contact, occasional teasing, maybe some witty but not sleazy comments (as we already know, he can be a tease and give witty comments if he's comfortable enough with MC, why don't go with it to a new level) . As for NSFW scenes, I can imagine Asterion being rough, though by nature, and not by his own choice, with long sweet pillow talks after.
8. As I said above, rough sex, but not by will but by nature. Well, if you're going to rile up a minotaur, you should be ready, that after he lose his head and all his shyness, things could be rough. :) I think some light restraints and teasing suit him too, maybe he would enjoy it on both top and bottom side. I can imagine him showing off to and/or teasing MC in not-so-private spaces, like the pool's changing room, though he must be sure they won't be caught, especially by guests. I can imagine Asterion and MC making love in the morning, somehow neglecting their hotel duties, only to have to hurry afterwards and missing a breakfast, or something like this. I think he would enjoy kissing and some oral sex, being top or bottom (adding maximum cringy "honeyed tongue" comment after). :D And yes, I think if he's free enough of his doubts and fears, he could enjoy almost anything, as long as it is love, and not just lust for a sake of fuck. 

p.s. The two things I can not imagine Asterion doing: is going after fuck-some-meat-with-no-feeling, and deliberately inflicting pain on MC just for a sake of inflicting pain.

I feel that the living quarters where Asterion serves the MC most often would be the best setting to get LEWD. I personally imagine that Asterion would be the top for the MC mainly because of the size difference, but it should be a power bottom situation, because he's still submissive but he gotta be a top with all that MEAT. Things he would be into might be bondage; restraints or leashes. With the option to pull his tail in the basic interactions, I would assume that we could do some rough things with him, pull his tail, use his horns as handles (in various positions), spankings, biting, things that could leave a mark.  In my run, I would love to see a power bottom position, because that's mainly my play style. Teasing him would be pulling his tail or petting his body; his stomach or chest. Something he could tease the MC with could be: picking them up, or being really dominant, calling us master or asking for punishment. I would love to see: Sucking/ playing nipples (maybe even milking) , him with a cock ring, lots of fondling, cuddling, and sucking his big dick.

10/10 game! PLEASE LET ME MAKE THE BABY BOY FEEL HAPPY I DON'T WANT HIM TO HURT NO MORE JUST WANNA CUDDLE AND TELL HIM EVERYTHING IS OKAY

I'll go loosely by the bullet points to make this wall of text have at least some structure.

1. I'd like to see a bit of role reversal where the MC can take or (if Asterion is sufficiently riled up) yield the more active role in a scene, or (smoothly) push Asterion into the bed/pillows to end up on top of him. In terms of kinks, bondage and latex (clothing or accessories) are personal favourites (though I don't know how well the latter would work with fur, considering the game seems to otherwise take a realistic approach). Being able to masturbate/top and/or interactively edge him manually and/or using toys, similarly to the kiss scene, would be really hot.

I love the occasional surprises about how Asterion's body works. I suppose that's less of an idea and more of a "more of that please", though.

2. M3tav0X's idea of riling up Asterion with hypotheticals is verz hot. More casually, the MC unexpectedly revealing that he's (very) open to trying some thing or other and getting him flustered that way sounds very fun. (On my main playthrough, it's unclear how much experience the MC actually has, but he's not shy about drinking games.)

3. I have the strong suspicion that, if the topic comes up, Asterion could use internet research and contracts to make sex toys, especially interactive ones. (From what I can tell, he could easily do this on his own by skipping the electronics.) He could probably even tweak them on the fly if needed, though handing a stealthy "linked object" remote to a more sexually dominant MC seems fun too.

Also, as others have mentioned, he seems like he might slip the MC an invitation or other message in form of a poem sometimes.

4. There's a contract somewhere that makes Asterion feel the Master's pain, right? (I'm not sure he ever mentions this out loud, though.)
It may be possible to amend that one to a) temporarily replicate other sensations like touch and b) also work in the other direction.
(Kinky idea: Maybe this could even be used to act as temporary body swap that works between the MC and Asterion specifically. That would make a really interesting late NSFW scene.)

5. Bondage is a touchy subject in this situation. I think Asterion may be okay with it or even into it if it's light and doesn't involve any hotel or labyrinth magic to restrain him (beyond summoning physical but otherwise mundane restraints, likely ones he could break out of with some effort). He may have some unusual preferences related to how his body works, that would be interesting. There may also be a need for an additional contract that limits the Master to make the scene safe for Asterion.

(I'd actually like it if the MC could state very early on/in advance and unprompted that anything involving pain is off-limits, in both directions, due to the proximity to BDSM. The labyrinth seems to enforce one of them anyway, but this is a different context not built on contracts, so I think it bears restating.)

Manipulating Asterion's body would be interesting as Theodwulf mentioned, but I don't think he'd be okay at all with his mental state being changed directly this way (and it may not be a good idea to do this even if he requests it for some reason). However, he may be able to become much more comfortable with this part of the situation if the MC uses this to pleasure him more indirectly by adjusting shapes and/or sensations (but in either case, I wouldn't be comfortable with doing this without confirming consent and boundaries first).

6.&7. To be honest, I have no idea where I even ended up on that scale. Determined Asterion is hot as hell and he's utterly cute when flustered. I want to directly compliment him at some point, even if it's a bit blunt. Topping him while he's not entirely submissive would be great, I think. And cuddling afterwards.

8. It's hard to tell. I think he may be into kinks that let him safely explore parts of his past trauma, but outside of that I suspect he'd also want MC to have a more hands-on approach to his culture from when he was alive in Crete. Or to himself in such a context, for that matter. Maybe he'd prepare a set of clothes for the MC to wear going into such a scene, especially if he recreates the climate from Crete there and it doesn't match the hotel's.

(final edit: Just went over this again, hopefully it's a bit more coherent now.)

I apologize for using a translator that may have made this comment difficult to read😂 I'm having breakfast with him right now. I think with asterion's current personality, he might ask the MC's location and special hobbies beforehand, secretly take notes, and thoughtfully prepare everything in advance... I really want to see MC come in behind him pulling his tail until he goes with one incomplete moo after another!! please🤤🤤

1. Maybe some dominant version of Asterion or a submissive depending on MC's choice.  Got a feeling Asterion would like role play to be a god or the Master.

2. Sauna area would be interesting and would it lead to the relationship being open going in the sauna.

3.  Adding a 3rd in to the mix of a choice of the other staff.

1. What are things, sexual positions, acts and/or kinks you'd like the MC and Asterion to explore together?

Body worship, Riding the Bull, Pool-Sex (overwater and underwater)

2. If the MC had the chance to rile up/tease/excite Asterion, what would you like him to do? 

 Generel: message (body,tail), poolside fun, wrestling, Idea: MC visits a Sex/Erotic-Shop to buy a few toys, but Asterion cannot leave the Hotel so.. a) MC communicates with Asterion by Phone/Skype  b) MC keeps it a secret and invites Oscar because he is Minotaur,  c) the MC invite Luke, Kenbisch, Wolf or Robert to help him out d) MC can invite multiple people, example; with tech/math background the MC can communicat with asterion while also having Luke, Kenbisch or Temba around; With humanitarian the MC can invite Oscar (instead of asterion)  + another staff member. Leadership allows the MC to invite Pedro (looking for tools for Oscar) or Nikos (evil bondage ideas) instead.                  

Background; Teach Internet and Pornsites (tech+math+gamer),  Asterion being nude-model for the MC (artist) or bunch or Guests who are artist or historian (leadership-humantarien)

3. Similarly, what do you think Asterion would do to tease/rile up/excite the MC?

Flexing, sucking morning wood. 

Evil Idea: Asterion and MC agreed on poolside sex, but the MC made the mistake to anwser "ANYTIME, buddy!" So on one sunday very early morning, Asterion (in his Speedo) kidnap the MC (asterion  carefully took away the MCs clothes)  while sleeping and throw him over his shoulder. MC wakes up but does not protest because he is either too sleepy or fears to wake up the other guests with his protest. Arriving on the poolside with no other guest around Asterion jump into the pool with the MC on his shoulder. 

4. Is there something you'd like R&D to do that would, intentionally or not, provide a chance for a NSFW scene? (For example, building a sauna.) 

Sauna, small Cinema, River with nice green landscape for picnic scenes + maybe a waterfall, music room where asterion or Argos can teach diffrent music instruments, Oscar learning to play giture for some romantic songs etc...

5. Is there something you'd like the MC and Asterion to do, but you are not sure if Asterion would be comfortable? If yes, what?

a) FKK beach / pool weekend. FKK = free-body-culture -> nude

b) Sex (or Sex Education) with other people:  1. MC or Asterion having Sex with Luke or other Stuffmembers. Tripples/Sandwiches   2. Asterion helps Oscar with minotaur-style sex / the MC advise Oscar on human sex issues.  3. Kenbisch wants....

c) american wrestling, selling gut punshes, stomping the opponent stomach or chest and  leg drops.

6 + 7 + 8. It's easier to tell what i don't like, what is repulsive: 

- erotic asphyxia  (stupid/risky, boring)

- hardcore bdsm, real torture  (doing this to Asterion, sick Bastards!!) 

- rimming,  licking the butthole  (ugly, boring)

- any kind of unremoveable piercing or tatoo (beautiful bodies don't need that, keep that optional!)  

Personally I feel that Asterion would avoid anything relating to bondage, chastity, or actions and fetishes otherwise relating to previous torture and abuse. Being sexually exposed to another person is a very vulnerable state, and my interpretation of Asterion views him as inexperienced at best. However, while Asterion can be shy, he also has moments of confidence and will even physically overpower the Master.

If Asterion were to flirt, I imagine him doing it through his poetry, getting ever-more erotic with his descriptions, but I wouldn't be surprised if he has little to no knowledge of current-day slang in relation to sex. It's hardly something I think guests would be openly talking about, but perhaps Luke would have taught him some things over time? Maybe Asterion would even end up teaching us, like the route with his project teaching us obscenities from the past.

For Master flirting, there's many opportunities to grab Asterion's tail already throughout the story, I wouldn't be surprised if that became their personal way of flirting and hinting at Asterion that it's time for a private moment in the bedroom. He gets bashful and shy when the Master grabs his tail, and it's been shown to happen with his horns too.

I'd very much like to see Asterion and Master in more of a playful relationship than a very serious one. The way Asterion bounces around happily like a calf when excited, and that smile, are some of the most warming parts of his character. 

For fetishes, that is a difficult question on Asterion's side. As I mentioned, I doubt he would be into anything adjacent to things he has been tortured with in the past. But since he is forbidden from being naked around guests, it would be quite fun to have the Master declare Asterion as unable to wear clothes when in the Master's quarters, either as a nudge towards humiliation, exhibitionism, or the Master's own voyeurism. There's also a rather abundant use of scent-based commentary throughout the story, Asterion knows you love to smell him, perhaps that would be taken a step further, after a gym or swimming scene. 

Overall, one scene I would definitely love to see between Master and Asterion is the two exploring each other's bodies. Asterion is forbidden from becoming intimate with guests, and it's very doubtful any Master in the past has allowed Asterion to see much of their body, let alone touch. He would certainly enjoy the opportunity to simply feel a human body, feel the Master. Realise that, despite his bullish features, parts of him are simply human. He isn't so different. He is normal, and healthy. It would be very reassuring to him.
