Reactions and Reviews

This is kidfic with a twist. What I love about it is that kidBlair isn't overly cutesie and Jim is adorably bewildered and out of his depth with a mini version of his guide in place of the one he's come to rely on.The slug scene is worth the price of admission alone.

Incacha decides that it's time for Sandburg to go to "Shaman School". Unfortunately, while Sandburg is away, he's replaced on the physical plane by a five-year-old version of himself. Cue Jim Ellison suddenly learning to be a father (Simon helps. A lot.) and Blair Sandburg learning to be a shaman (primarily by being a wiseass).
This series is just plain cute. Mini-Blair is adorable, parental!Jim nearly as much so, Simon kicks almighty ass, and Adult-Blair is both entertaining and resilient as he takes his lessons (though, fair warning, his lessons consist of: "Jim is way more important than you -- stop trying to pretend you have any life outside of him". Fortunately said lessons are a very, very small part of the story). If you're looking to be overwhelmed with cuteness, have any love at all for kid!fics, and/or love watching Simon being awesome, you'll definitely enjoy this fic.
