Chapter Text
In this alternative universe, there is more than just hero, civilian, and villain. There’s a ranking order in this. A ranking order of power, pairs, mates, everything. First was Masters. They are seen as the most in power as they have complete control over a slave/servant. Slaves/servants are at the bottom of the power chart. Next were alphas. Usually they didn't have complete control over an omega, and didn’t mind that they weren’t fully in power over their mate. Mommies/Daddies are not the same as caregivers or age regression. They just have more of a dominant sense. Their partner can be a little, but usually they just have a baby. After mommies/daddies were caregivers. Betas/neutrals (someone without any difference). Following was omegas, then babies, littles and slaves.
Some of these are more common than others. Alphas are the most common. Omegas, and masters were next. Mommies/daddies were in the middle right above babies. Slaves are much less common than masters. Many masters have regular partners like betas that they dominate over in bed only. Caregivers are next with littles as the least amount. Despite how some, like littles, are uncommon, it’s very common to treat your partner that way in public. Tons of littles go out regressed, masters take control of slaves, etc. Different types can be with a non-common partner. Littles with mommies/daddies, babies with a master, omegas with betas. All of it.
Little in-depth explanation of each. Power chart top is beta up, bottom is omega and below.
Masters are the top on the power chart as they usually have complete control over a partner. Of course the complete control might not be 24/7, it could only be in private, bed, public, etc. This can control what their mate eats, wears, activities they do, and more. Not every master is the same. Some like total control all the time, others might let their mate go off and do things without controlling it. Other relations the one in power might also come off more of a master, especially in caregiver baby relationships if they pick the food or clothes constantly. Very different though.
Alphas, the most common and definitely added onto every series like this, are much more common. Alphas have ruts, like omegas have heats. During ruts they might not go to school, work, the outside, and more. An omega in heat can cause many physical problems for an alpha if they come in contact. Usually alphas are with omegas, not always. When someone starts to present as an alpha they can usually smell things better. Mainly just their mates scent or another person's pheromones. Sometimes, they might have trouble holding back. It truly depends from person to person.
Mommies/daddies are different from caregivers. The difference is slight so many littles might be with a mommy/daddy because of it. Unlike caregivers, a mommy/daddy’s traditional partner, babies, don’t regress. Like most of the people in the top section of the power chart, they usually take control. Most of the time they help their partner out. Picking clothes, making food, typical things someone would do to help. It’s more likely they’d take care of a baby than little. Mommies/daddies don’t have the same parental instincts as caregivers do.
Caregivers are at the bottom of the top portion of the chart as they do not take as much control as the rest. Caregivers usually don’t fully control a little. They take care of littles, in and out of regression. Their relationships are more protective as they take charge of littles more. Caregivers are more likely to be better with littles, not always, due to their natural instinct. Different from mommies/daddies is how they interact. Mommies/daddies can be more of just a sex relationship with their partner as caregivers don’t only have sex with their partner.
Betas don’t have anything happen to them. Of course they can mate with a baby, little, mommy, master, anyone. Doesn’t mean that it will work out as they might not have the natural instinct or crave.
Omegas have heats. Just like an alpha’s rut, it usually lasts a week. Omega’s are more submissive as a beta but it does depend on the person. An omega can be very submissive or barely. This can impact who they end up mating with. Their senses of smell get heightened when they start to present. They are the most nurturing throughout the bottom section of the power chart.
Babies do not regress. Babies and littles are different just as mommies/daddies are with caregivers. Of course they could have a caregiver or whomever they choose as their partner. Babies are likely pampered and taken care of. They don’t regress so that means no bottles, diapers, baby toys, etc. They are called babies as they get babied. Just like mommies/daddies, it might just be a sex thing they do. Most of the time they get taken care of as if someone bathes them, dresses them, makes them food, and more.
Littles. Littles may be nicknamed baby or have nicknames like it but babies and littles are different. Littles regress. They go into a headspace of many ages. Older littles may regress to a teenager. Some might regress to kids, toddlers, or babies. The most common to regress to is a toddler or baby. Regressing could make them feel helpless, like there's a fuzz in their brain. It is very uncommon for littles to be with anyone but a caregiver or mommy/daddy as they do not only regress as a sex thing. Without accepting it and regressing, or trying, for the first year could cause serious problems. Uncontrollable regression is common at the first stages. Same with getting in or out of head space. Sometimes littles can stay for minutes or a month in that headspace. First presenting and being careful is crucial. Without the proper care can ruin headspace changes, drops, lengths, everything. Most littles use things like diapers, pacifiers, bottles, and more. It’s common to see littles in public all the time.
Slaves/servants are at the bottom. At some time, or point, their partner usually has complete control. Either it's only in bed, public, private, any time. Every relationship is different due to people’s different comfortability levels and more. Slaves should have a good, trustworthy relationship with their partner. Breaking the trust can cause problems in submission and more.
