deelaundryHELLO, ANONYMOUS! I am happy with criticism but would prefer dialogue, so if you'd identify yourself that'd be great! (PS. Don't read "Leave in Quiet" because you really won't like that one.)
This doesn't work one bit, you really don't seem to have a clue on how BDSM relationships work in RL or this AU. The point of Cameron in aris_writing's AU is that Cameron is a sub pretending to be a dom & House is the dom-est dom around. No way would House ever behave like this or Cameron for that matter, because she's ALWAYS subed to him. Even if you're not using that AU but a straight BDSM, House can't defend any claim against Wilson if he's uncollared without Wilson's public acknowledgement, which is missing here - Wilson must have given Cameron consent for her actions - she can't touch without a sub's consent, and there's no way he would have if House had a prior claim. And there's no way House would have made a claim against Cameron unless he were authorized to do so - no dom would ever behave like that, least of all someone with the kind of self-control & lack of fear House has. To suggest House would be afraid of Cameron is completely ludicrous.
Do you actually write anything original? It seems that the last half dozen things you've written have all been derivative off of other people's work.
And, now that you point it out, almost everything I've written has been derivative, seeing as how it's fanfic. What do you think I should write instead?

Some points to kick us off:
- I don't claim to know how BDSM relationships work in real life - only what I've gleaned from the Internet. I make absolutely no claim that this fic, or any other of mine, represents real-life BDSM relationships.
- I've read Aris' fics and the ones she linked back to; that's my knowledge of how the AU works.
- Also, I asked Aris' permission before I posted this fic anywhere, and she granted it.
- I totally disagree with you on the point of Cameron in Aris' fics. To me, the point of Cameron is that she is a top who is completely confused by her sub-like reaction to House. She tries subbing to others but can't stand it, so I heartily disagree that she is a "sub pretending to be a dom."
- Cameron has never subed to House in Aris' fics. Never. She's only imagined doing so.
- House behaves the way that he does in my fic because he is trying to get Cameron away from Wilson without revealing that he and Wilson have a relationship. If you'll recall in the last of Aris' fics, House had told Wilson he'd sleep with him only if Wilson lied about it. House in the AU does not want a conventional dom/sub relationship; as you said, he's the dom-est of the dom, and he's told Wilson he doesn't want Wilson doing any of those sub-y things. I hypothesize (and this is my interpretation) that House secretly wants such a relationship with Wilson but is not willing to admit it. Also, if he were to collar Wilson, it would compromise their working relationship, wouldn't it? Wilson would have to do what House said, instead of being a foil and relative equal for him at the hospital. Wilson has already complained that he gets less respect professionally because he's a sub - if he was collared to House, wouldn't people defer to House instead of him?
- As to why Wilson would give Cameron consent for her actions - because House told him he had to hide his relationship with House. (And maybe to make House jealous.)
- House is not afraid of Cameron in general, but he's afraid of the secret relationship getting out... and he doesn't want Wilson to know how he truly feels.

Well, the last half dozen things I wrote were sections of a fic that crosses over withsimple__man's Churchverse, so yes, I suppose you could say those all were derivative.

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.
