I have to admit I didn't love Finding North (or Aris' 4 that preceded it.) They were interesting, I'm not sorry I read them, but there are other things you've written that I adored much more.
That said, "anonymous" confused me because, when I was reading them, it didn't occur to me that the relationships portrayed were meant to be blueprints for how BDSM relationships in our world work. This is an alternateALTERNATE Universe in which two equals having sex is kinky. Does anonymous believe that bondage is necessary during sex in order to avoid injury? Or perhaps that all professional interactions should be based primarily on the sexual orientation of those involved? (Actually, that was one of the hardest things for me to accept about this AU. My brain kept saying "you're at work. Save it for your personal time.")
Anyway, as I look through your House fics, I just want to say "Keep those derivative stories coming." I love them.
