I left an inadequate review over at AO3 but I danced inwardly just seeing this!
And it was excellent - it rings very true to the universe, you have the voices down right (and Zen is not easy, or at least, I find him difficult to get right) and your backstory is interesting, fits with the B7 universe and is also the right kind of creepy.
And B7 is totally still Whoniverse fic. It's just one corner of the vast multi-verse the Doctor travels in. :-)
(Also, that reminds me - I don't think I mentioned Kaldor City, and at this point, I should. If you can obtain them, either from their website, or by your own methods, they are... um a Chris Boucher-fest with Carnell from Weapon, characters from Robots of Death, Paul Darrow playing a character who Definitely Isn't Avon Honest (I refuse to believe he is, but Avon's brother would totally make sense), and it mashes up elements from B7, Image of the Fendahl and Robots of Death and possibly Star Cop (which I don't know) together. It makes no sense but in the most entertainly snarky backstabbing way, and mostly because Paul Darrow seems to think a microphone is either something you eat or growl at. There are 6x 50 min titles, plus a thing only available from the website called Metafiction, which I haven't heard and should, because I think it's suppose to explain what actually happened. Possibly. Also Russell Hunter, Peter Miles, Nicholas Courtney, Brian Croucher, Scott Fredericks, David Baillie, David Collings, Philip Madoc and even Gregory de Poligny returning as a Voc at the end, and no doubt people I've forgotten. Anyway, the point is, DW's Kaldor City is where Carnell from B7's Weapon escapes to, and this happened in the BBC books title Corpse Marker, and Kaldor City runs with that - it's the official B7/DW crossover. I don't think it adds much to the B7 universe, but Paul Darrow/microphone is definitely the cracky OTP here.)
