While I read voraciously both fanfiction and published novels I would say at least half of the stuff I have written over the past few years has been for Naruto, specifically the Founders Era. I find it fun as the lack of canon material has allowed the community to create our own lore.
One of the fannon tropes I really enjoy is the idea of 'marriage hunt' which kinda ties in with 'marriage rope' I have an idea I am probably going to write and add to my 'Children of War' collection, however first I need to figure out some background.
In order for the 'marriage hunt' trope to be feasible in our fictional society there need to be some rules. Otherwise it would not be a marriage hunt, it would be kidnapping and sexual abuse. So, how does it all work? Well, here are my ideas.
Firstly these rules are enforced by the divine for the most part rather than mortal law. Most marriage hunt fics I have read put a somewhat stronger emphasis on kami. If you do not follow the rules you will end up cursed, dead, or both.
Second, the hunter is making a commitment. This marriage is their only marriage and there will not be anyone else. No cheating, no divorce. If you are widowed no remarriage. This relationship is the one and only.
Third, it is expected you treat your spouse with dignity and respect. You are honor-bound to acknowledge their kin as your kin. You cannot just haul someone off and be like mine now. They are your spouse, not your prisoner or your slave.
Fourth, who is allowed to be hunted. All participants must be of age and free of other commitments. You cannot hunt someone significantly above your social level (somewhat unfair but logical, we can't have some nobody marrying the lord's sister right)
Fifth, some legal recourse if the spouse is not being treated well. Probably handled by the temples rather than the courts. Not sure of all the details at this point but it would need to be there.
