"You let a wolf save your life, and
then you pay and pay and pay and pay..."
White Wolf Website
The Diefenbaker fanfiction archive
What would the great television show dueSouth
have been without Fraser's headstrong half-wolf companion Diefenbaker?
Probably still a very good show, but much less fun. Forget about Dino,
Lassie, Flipper, Salem, Oz... okay, not Oz. Dief is the ultimate TV
animal.
But is he given fair treatment online? Oh no. There are stories out
there, but they are hard to find. I have browsed through endless dS
sites to bring you the work of these wonderful authors. If you
appreciate the stories, please tell the writers so by sending them
feedback. That way, you encourage them to write more stories about our
beloved Dief.
Thank you kindly for reading.
From the moderator of Two Axes
comes this statement:
Deaf Suits Him
The characters in these stories belong to Alliance, not to the
authors, nor me, and nobody makes any money on this. We mean no
copyright infringement, we're just enjoying ourselves.
Since this is not an American page, and since I'm not really
into that sort of things, there will be no ratings. However, the
summaries can give some indication of what to expect. "Slash"
means expressions of love and/or sexuality between two people of the
same sex. If that bothers you, don't read those stories.
If you wish to read more stories than the ones on this page, mail me
and I'll give you the URLs to stories whose authors I haven't been able
to reach.

Slash.
