Partners written for the "Wolves" challenge Chris Cwej wandered idly through the Annual Cross-Continuity Police Convention. As he passed Sean O Lochlainn's lecture on "Forensic Sorcery", he spotted himself. He remembered meeting a 20th century Mountie last year who looked exactly like him, except for having dark hair. This guy was red-haired, and wore medieval armour, as did the blonde woman next to him, who looked like Roz, only white and younger. "Hello," the man said. "For a moment I thought you were Benton Fraser." "You've met him too?" said Chris, "Nice guy. Having a wolf for a partner's a bit weird, though." "Really." said the blonde.
