So where to start.

Done on a whim with Characters I've really grown to love. If Keyholder is the R1 unit, to borrow an analogy from a sci-fi series I abandoned the second they washed away the expanded universe, then Collared would be the R2. More refined, more functional, and I think overall a better product. Maybe not quite as horny or as porny but absolutely 'me'.

The thing is, it's apparently a bit over-finished.

A friend has been helping me go over things. I won't spoil all the details but one thing to note is that Collared in its current state is the length of several novels. Even with stories broken off that could be turned into their own novels with work it's still two novels worth of length.

It would seem I am very bad at this.

So what does that mean? Well I will say it means a few things. One of them being that you'll get some one-shots. Related or not. Maybe some fucked up work more akin to my older stuff. Maybe some new things. I know some of it, and some of it will come to me.

These characters won't go away. I'm going to keep working on things so I don't mean to actually scare the few people who give a shit about my silly little setting. My impermanence issues won't let me get rid of anything. But expect to see things happen in the coming months, craziness of the world and efficacy of my meds willing.

Until then, enjoy!
