Summary

Starting from the end of the episode "Dead Drop" and continuing onward, Jim and Blair discover that they have a psychic connection between them, a bond that only comes to life when one of them is in life-threatening danger.

Reactions and Reviews

[Mind Over Matter]: Good AU. I like the twist that the psychic bond is risky, something less cosy and more perilous. Addendum: this series was nominated for favourite series in the 2001 Cascade Times Awards. [Fatal Flaw]: Sequel to Dead Drop: Alternate Ending. Good again. However I find it frustrating that Our Heroes are dancing around the issue - even though that's in character! [Remembering the Silences]: Sequel to Fatal Flaw. Good again. More interesting aspects, and things done which seemed like a good idea at the time, but which have consequences. [Severed]: Sequel to Remembering the Silences. Good again. And here's the consequences. [2]

[entire series]: Gah! I love this so much! XD. I don"t think that I"ve ever liked anything with Blair as a top like this before. Ohhhhhhh....and the EMOTION! I swear that my heart was pounding so much through this. It ached, too. Simon was a real doll in here. [3]
