Generation Kill Wolf-verse AU fic: What to Do After Firing

Another story in my A Companion to Wolves fusion verse! This one takes place chronologically earlier than Which in Your Case You Have Not Got, but is not as good an introduction to the universe, so read that one first if you have somehow gotten here without doing so.

Many many thanks to petra, tevere, missmollyetc, oliviacirce and iulia for beta!

Ray/others, Brad/Ray. 14,000 words. Hurt/comfort. Explicit!
Warning: dubiously consensual gangbang of the soul-bonded wolf in heat variety, not entirely offscreen. Also explicitly consensual sex onscreen.

November 2000. Ray and Navi have their first multiple breeding, and Brad and Frost look after them when it's over.

( A further unpacking of the warnings. )

And without further ado, my totally short Ray prequel story. Which is too long to crosspost to LJ. Title from Henry Reed's Naming of Parts.

30 questions fic meme, day 6: an even shorter and more definitive answer.

6 – When you write, do you prefer writing male or female characters?

Male. To such an extent that, until I started deliberately writing Bechdel Test fix-it fic for SG-1 a couple of years ago, I had never written a piece of fic that passed the Bechdel test. I'm getting better about it now (ahahaha, look! I am writing a whole AU that adds prominent female OCs to the exclusively-male world of Generation Kill! It's just that they're bitches wolves.) but, uh, yeah. I still definitely prefer to write male characters. A lot.

...This meme didn't originate in slash fandom, did it.
