in our nature 'verse: Dog Years (1/2)
May. 10th, 2011 10:44 amTitle: Dog Years
(1/2)
Characters/Pairings: In Our Nature OCs + AOS (non-mirror) characters (Gene/Alel, Jill/Scotty, Tom, McCoy)
Rating: M
Warnings: Non-graphic violence, implications of psychologically abusive (past) relationships, mentions of slavery and related abuse, semi-explicit sex.
Summary: Placing trust in a handful of former imperial soldiers is hardly easy for a group of slave-born Romulans on the Terran Empire's home world, even if the four humans may not be what they seem. It's hard enough to separate friend from foe among their own species, to confide in each other, to trust that they could be loved.
Notes: If anyone is actually inclined to read this as a stand-alone (maybe somebody out there has a hankering for Romulan slash, I don't know), I think it might work. Quite a while back I had already written some stuff from the POV of the ex-slave OCs in ION that I hadn't thought I'd ever post, but somewhere along
flowrs4ophelia asked me about how Gene and Alel first met, and some months of occasional fiddling and a few K later I have this thing which is so much longer than I expected and hopefully only a little bit self-indulgent. My gods.
( our mother has been absent ever since we founded rome/but there's gonna be a party when the wolf comes home )
