Reactions and Reviews
This is a S2P2 story and tells about the trip back to Cascade, the really really long plane trip back to Cascade. While this is a well-traveled story line, what makes this story unique is that the Blair in this story is canon Blair from the series; he's not sick, he's not traumatized, and he's damn sure not about to leave Jim. This Blair takes being dead in stride. He remarks on it, thinks about it, figures that he has earned some cosmic brownie points, but for the most part he just deals with it--much better than Jim does.Let's see, what else goes on? Jim sucks at apologies, Blair drools on Simon while sleeping on the plane, Megan gets weepy. And when they finally make it back to the loft, Jim tries to share a major epiphany with Blair but Blair just gets all "goobery" about it (to quote Jim).
Serious stuff happens. Declarations are made. Sex ensues. Neither guy is very romantic. And Jim has funky toenails.[3]
