Extra information about my a/b/o universe

These are just some things I came up with while thinking about how this kind of world might work. I really enjoy the world building aspects of writing AU's, but most of this stuff is completely irrelevant to the actual plot, so I decided to put them here.

Something Almost Tender

Title: Something Almost Tender
Author: oanja
Artist: evian_fork
Pairing: Zach Parise/Mikko Koivu
Rating: NC-17
Word count: 56,660
Warnings: Set in an a/b/o universe (but it's a pretty mild version of it)
Summary: Going into heat sucks, but it’s extra inconvenient when it happens during the first game of the playoffs. On top of that, Zach has never been around an alpha during his heat before, so one bad decision leads to another, and Zach ends up heat-bonded to his captain. The bond forces them to live together, and they cohabit surprisingly well for two guys completely unable to talk to each other about anything important. But what will it take for them to realize just how good they have it?
