Making a Love Potion to Use on Someone
Making a Love Potion to Use on Someone
Remember it is illegal to use, produce or distribute love potions in most if not all cases. This includes every state, province and territory.
Necromancy gets a bad rap, but these soulless husks weren't doing anything useful before I got here. Enchantment is the stuff of nightmares.
But my boy Sandal loves enchantment
Ahahahahahaah! xD
The Harry Potter series is so weird about this.
It’s like a joke that a girl essentially tries to roofie Harry and gets Ron instead. Voldemorts mom drugs a muggle into loving her.
Pretty wild
The Gods Are Bastards makes the same call-out!
“I’d be careful with that kind of joke, Professor,” Toby warned. “Sisters of Avei consider the use of love potions a form of rape. So does Imperial law, for that matter, but Imperial law doesn’t get quite as…worked up on the subject as they do."
Only Villains Do That, by the same author, has a similar reference - the protagonist receives a "starter bundle" of spells, one of which is Enamour. He's pretty skeeved that one of his few starter spells is a rape spell.
Dang, love potions are a dark art confirmed.
Only time I’ve seen an ethical love potion plot was a cute little comic featuring a couple looking to spice things up due to mutual boredom. They split a love potion, but neither changed their behavior. Both remained bored together, but with slight, visible smiles.
Honestly, one of the most scientifically plausible "love potions" we might actually be able to make someday would something that long term couples might actually be really interested in. You know that initial early head-over-heels "chemical love" that happens right at the start of a relationship? In principle that could be duplicated artificially. That would be something.
So just an absolute rage of hormones and oxytocin? Sounds miserable to me, but I’m ace-aro so what do I know?
You can get an oxytocin nasal spray, right now, to enhance your bonding if you so choose.

What if I use it on myself?

Does the recipient have to love a person, or can we, say, make one for the environment and the wellbeing of all our fellow living things?
Can I introduce a dilute form of it into the water supply and then have an easy path to elected office?
Still illegal, as the person will feel a romantic love towards the environment. Some people who've done this little experiment have been caught doing unspeakable acts to forests and groves. And for some reason, fences.
You're just describing shrooms, lol
As for 1/. is concerned, you'll be ok as long as you can stay away from lakes and other deep still water reservoirs (Narcissus)
Big Depression won't allow it, it's a scheme to sell more sad

Perhaps what the potion really does is changes you when you make it so that you become the person that your object of desire will love.
Well that works until the person you're pining for is, unbeknownst to you, gay or lesbian. Now you're in for more changes than you bargained for!
The beauty of such subtle magic is that you would be happy to be changed in such a way. :)
That life drain potion though? Totally ok :-)
Offers the police a refreshing drink when they arrive.
But when I kissed the cop down at 34th and Vine
He broke my little bottle of
Love Potion No. 9

- It’s starts getting frisky with you
- Walk funny for 2 weeks
I'm not seeing any downsides here.
Only two weeks? I want my money back for that love potion.

Ok but what about placebo love potions?
Gaslighting?
They will be confiscated by the imaginary police.
Maybe still a little questionable? Like if you honestly convince someone that they are supernaturally compelled to be in love with you, that might be a bit manipulative
What if it was a platonic love potion?
To make you fall in love with Plato, or to make Plato fall in love with you?
like, with 12 sides?
That would be pretty solid.
For even more warning, a child made through procreation via a love potion also loses their nose.
And is also a sociopath, incapable of feeling or giving love.
And the final ingredient, a dash of GHB...
Channelate has a short on this
ACAB
Using a love potion can also be dangerous. See: Sorry, but I'm Not Yuri for more details.
Would certainly be welcome in my CNC play >.>
