Human Prison

Not sure I've ever made a cap with this element in it,
so I was struggling on what tags to put on it.

Update: Wow, the ideas in this comment section were great.
Officially made me wanna make more in this space! ["Human Prison" tag made]

    1. Thanks, me too! I actually felt sorta bad writing it, but then remembered it was a caption about a terrible person being imprisoned and that it was actually probably just. Lol

  2. Could you do a caption where a guy likes his girlfriend's pretty body but not her shy personality and gets the girlfriend sister to steal her body because the sister is sluttier but not as pretty.

    1. Lol, I'll try and remember this when I'm cooking up ideas. I feel like I'd have to spice it up a bit because I think I've made a caption (or 5) exactly like this in my past.

  3. But he will experience sex only if it is painful, and it shouldn't, should it?

      Lol, jk, I'll say that yes sex can definitely be an ambivalent combination of pain and pleasure depending on what's specifically going on. But perhaps more haunting, this imprisoned character is going to be experiencing sex from the perspective of a woman without any control himself. Having your autonomy robbed from you can actually be more damning than literal pain, believe it or not.

  4. maybe the tag can be called "backseat"

    1. Oh I see what you mean, for caps that have the person in a sort of "backseat" to the driver. Hmmm, gotta think on it.

  5. I thought this was more of a "giving prisoners" a chance at life again due to good behavior." Because if that was the case a good tag for it would be called the "Switch Amendment."

    1. Mm, that's a more humane solution. I do like that, but unfortunately I don't think that's the way these people were looking at it. BUT, I do love that tag - I do I do... Gonna think on that a bit more.

  6. I like the premise, as being without control can be a nightmare, and it's rare to see this kind of story in captions as most are about the opposite, gaining control. Could lead to a follow-up where someone commits a crime and deliberately gets caught to be put in this situation, as that's what they were after all along, though they'd have to design their crime to be opposite to what they'd normally do, if you get what I mean, to make this "appear" to be the right punishment.

    1. Who are you!? These ideas are brilliant! Love the analysis too. You're completely right about most caps being about gaining control rather than losing it. (Seriously, email me if you want to ever chat you idea machine!)

  7. What happens to the prisoners body, when his/her mind is implanted into a host? Also, it might be fun to see the tech mess up and the prisoner is in charge and the host is in the backseat. He then has to try to fool everyone into thinking he's really her.

    What do the hosts get? Why volunteer? For example to they get a payment every month from the government to host the criminal's mind in their body? What happens when the time is served? Does the prisoner get his/her body back? What happened to it in while he/she was in the "backseat?" So many possibilities here.

    1. If I were setting up the system I'd implant the mind in the "backseat" of a willing host. Then I'd auction of the body of the prisoner to the highest bidder. When time has been served, the prisoner gets the body of a new inmate, one they couldn't auction off, or whatever is on hand. lol

    2. Wow you created a whole set of plots from this. I feel like there are 20+ captions that people could make just from this setup. Really like the idea of a prison break, getting into the perspective of the volunteers, all that... ack, you guys are really making me feel like I should tag this and do some more from this universe.

  8. I honestly think the title of this caption is its own tag. "Human Prison" is already a perfect label for future captions. I like this idea and also wonder what the volunteers get. Also maybe, sometimes, the real punishment for non-lifers is having to return to their original bodies when they have served their time and are released. They will be free and themselves but remember wish they were still in the "human prison". That life was better.

    1. Goodness the ideas in this post are great. And yep, you know what I think you're right about the title being a good one. I'm officially adding the tag! Really hope I remember to keep making caps in this tag though...

    2. Hooray, new tag! :D Hopefully with many diverse caps to use it!
