I love this more than I can explain! Which is funny because at first I wasn't going to read it. I'm not a big fan of BDSM fics, but when I started to read it I was relieved. I'm actually really fine with this level of BDSM(and I'm actually finding it really hot! especially when it's Rodney and John), and I like the fact that they are not really into blood play and really heavy stuff like that. And the biggest thing that won me over was the fact that the subs are not just objects to the Doms. I hate those stories, they make me a little sick. I have a hard time when the people see the subs as just an item. I love that the Doms(0r at least the good ones) cherish their subs and see them as someone to treasure. P.S. I saw that one of Elizabeth's old subs was Spencer Reid and that made me so happy! And then in this chapter you mention Hotch!! I loved that! I love Criminal Minds, and those two are my favorite characters! I could definitely see Hotch and Reid ending up together! Omg! I love this more than I can explain!

I love this pairing so much. Usually I dislike multiple pairing fics because it reduces screen time for my OTP, but you make the characters and their relationships so interesting and <i>real</i> I even look forward to reading about your original characters pairing up. And the collaring scene was so sweet, I just melted. I really dislike the Dolorians. It seems strange to me that I have such a negative reaction to them when we've only really seen two of them and Koral seems like a good guy. But the casual disrespect the rest of the Dolorians seem to have regarding the Lanteans' customs and boundaries just really pisses me off. I get the whole "when in Rome..." thing, but I would think if you were truly allies with someone or group, you'd be willing to compromise, and the impression that I'm getting is that they only do that on paper. <i>“Too bad for him that Ancient equipment turns over, throws open its legs and begs for you, Colonel.”</i> This has to be one of my favorite lines from anything I've read, ever. It's dirty, funny, and true and I LMAO everytime I read it. Yay, lots of yummy Lorne/Matt! I love this pairing so much.

Sure he's a Geisha, but he still has his father's fire and badassery (that's not a word I know but I think it fits) and he's not one to just bow down and take Jordan's abuse. I was beginning to think Matthew was the "soft" one but training or no, I realized that he's still his father's son. He's a Geisha...but still a Sheppard, which makes this story even MORE interesting. In reading your replies up-thread, in regards to marriage, Rampart and O'Neill are the only ones with commitment rings? Duh, I just answered my own question, I think: Patrick, being truly bisexual, wouldn't marry Jonah, right? I'm a HUGE fan of Jonah...spending 19 years in the Sheppard household, he deserves a medal :) Mason and Sydney are the cutest ever.

A full grown one with a mad cow disease. I loved when Blake said that it was just so funny and awesome, all at the same time. Can't wait till the next part is up!!!

I also wonder who propositioned Blake/Jamison. Perhaps Chase took advantage of his new found love of the cane to proposition Gerard's doms? Or maybe Chris? Either way, that is a mind melting image.

Can I just say that I love the idea of Mason and Sydney, they are very cute together. From the first time I read this I can’t stop thinking about John or Rodney dropping Chris Morley’s name casually into conversation with them. The three of them would be very interesting I think. Morley would be adorably flabbergasted at why these two powerful people are suddenly interested in him. LOL, but that’s just a random thought I had. I’m sure whatever you’re thinking about doing is going to turn out even better! Just rereading this in preparation for the newest chapter, it’s still amazing.

I think de Sade would be too busy wetting themselves over getting John to really do them justice. And, let's face it, John and Rodney are both pretty much in touch with their "harsher" (for lack of a better word) aspects. My 2 cents.
