The bunny for this story was born out of two stories written by ellenscult in the NCIS fandom: Imprinted and Stepping Out of the Shadows. (You should really read both, even if you aren't NCIS fans.) I adored both of those fics, so when I decided to work on a new QaF fic, I thought I'd incorporate those ideas into a single story centered around Brian and Justin. I'll warn you now, though: this story is far from my normal fare.
Imprinted is a story that takes the premise of "soul mates" as a scientifically provable fact. What if some people really do connect on a deeper level? What if that connection had a biological root, and predictable patterns of behavior associated with it?
Stepping Out of the Shadows, on the other hand, is set in a world where BDSM is a natural part of everyone's lives. There are ranks from sub to omega to alpha (which I will explain better in the fic), and homosexuality is accepted as a normal offshoot of this system.
Obviously, I will have made changes to these premises to fit the story dancing around in my mind, but I wanted to write this both as a tribute to a really creative author and as an exercise in taking my writing outside my comfortably realistic niche. I hope you all enjoy it. Jules
