Fandoms

'R.B.' has been a writer in the due South fandom since 2007 and has written in Hard Core Logo, House and a wide range of other fandoms.

Writing style

exbex in ds_profiles says about R.B.'s due South writing:

"I am constantly struck by R.B.’s excellent use [of] the limited third-person point-of-view. Not only are the voices excellent, but characters go through transformations, sometimes with turmoil and sometimes with joy, and I always feel like I’m going through it with them. R.B. also has a knack for exploring the friendship and pre-slash element of the Fraser/Kowalski dynamic."

Notable Works

due South

• V1K-T0R-1A (Fraser, Victoria, PG-13) A fresh and fascinating Victoria’s Secret AU. The characterizations are excellent, and it pulls many of the same emotional punches that the original episode does.

• Aberration (Kowalski/Vecchio, NC-17) Kowalski returns from Canada emotionally wounded, Vecchio takes him under his wing, Vecchio suffers from Vegas-induced PTSD and disillusionment - set in Florida instead of Chicago. A remarkable story.

C6D

• A Tragedy in Five Fucking Acts (Joe/Billy, R) This piece, with its examination of the slow unraveling of Joe and Billy’s tumultuous relationship, is a standout.
