Makes a lot of sense to me. :) As I said above, I see these two unis as being more similar than some do, in part for the same reasons you mention. I also like your look at John in Helen's story; I thought a lot about him (and Rodney, but mostly John since John seems to be more screwed-up *g*) after reading, and I've been working on sorting out what's up with him. I agree with you that he's a sub, and I agree with Rodney that he's been messed up by a succession of assholes and also by the expectations of this society. Neither of them fit comfortably into the roles created for them, which makes me glad they found each other--and also makes me wonder what this uni's version of the Kinsey scale would be like. Hmmm.
