Reactions and Reviews

This is a post-TSbyBS, 'Jim throws Blair out after a misunderstanding' story. Naomi arrives at just the right (or wrong) moment and takes him away; and then Simon tells Jim that a background check by the Academy has revealed that Blair Sandburg, born May 24, 1969, had died ten days later. This is a brilliantly crafted story. It could be called an AU, except it follows after the events of the fourth season. It gives Blair (and Naomi) a whole new, and unexpected, background. Readers who like Naomi probably won't like this story; it's definitely evil!Naomi, with a good and supportive William to balance that; and yet, in some ways, by the end it's hard not to feel ever so slightly sorry for Naomi.[1]
