Disclaimer: This is pure fiction.
Pairing: Taguchi Junnosuke / Nishikido Ryo
Rating: NC-17 for explicit m/m sex. Also, bondage.
Story notes: AU, slightly more than 31,000 words. Various other JE characters – as well as two non-JE ones – appear in supporting roles.
Betaed by: diamondsofsix, k_julia and solo____ – all of whom helped immeasurably. Thank you very much! This story would be very different – and much worse – without you. solo____ deserves special thanks for going above and beyond.

Summary:
Detectives Nishikido Ryo and Taguchi Junnosuke go undercover in a gay BDSM club run by the mob. Ryo is not happy about this, though not for the reasons you might expect.

As always, feedback of all kinds – positive and negative – is very much appreciated!

*blush* Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! :-)

I loved how you wrote Junno and Ryo.

That's great to hear, because it was one of the most important things I wanted to get right! Characterization is always a very major thing for me, but especially in an AU story, it has to be just right - so the characters are believably and wholly themselves, while at the same time being different from their canon selves the way they would be under the given AU circumstances. (Exploring this is, in fact, why I love AUs in the first place. *g*)

And yes, Junno is far more than he may seem at first glance (and not just in this story). I'm very happy you felt for him, and that you liked Ryo's voice too, and that Shingo and Ohkura worked, and that it was all hot! :-))) (I'm always a bit insecure about the hotness, so, yes. *g*)

(Love your icon, btw!)
