Boys in Chains was a slash fan fiction archive and mailing list that focused on slavefic, prisonfic, hookerfic, Tie Me Up Fic and BDSM themes. It also archived portions of the Key Game[1] universe fiction. By the time the archive stopped updating, it had 478 stories.
From their main website:
- "This site was created and is maintained by delicate, etiquette-oriented young women who are looking for academic discussions about how slashing characters built in a capitalistic system reclaims our power.
- Long look
- Did you buy that? Poor, innocent sod.
- Honestly, we like fic, we like boys and we like chains (although RavenD's not at all opposed to leather). This is a happy home for all of the above.
In addition to the fan fiction archive, the website hosted art and photo manips focusing on themes of dominance and submission. Samples are below and more can be found in the Boys in Chains Art Gallery (via Wayback).
In 2001, the website began advertising for submissions for a fanzine "Boys in Chains Anthology" to be published by Torquere Press. The zine was never published.
The boysinchains mailing list is still active, and the mod of the list (duskpeterson) is looking to get the archive back on line.[2]
