Drowning Sorrows by DCStreets (PG-13)
Fandom: THE SENTINEL
Pairings: Gen (but if you squint just right) Jim/Blair
Author on LJ: I don't believe so.
Author Website: Starfox's Mansion
Why this story must be read:
I'm not normally a big fan of hurt/comfort stories as authors have a tendecy to emphasize the hurt and not deal with the comfort aspect of the equation. However, when it's done right, it make a story rock.
Drowning Sorrows is a post TSbyBS story with Blair as a cop, but that doesn't have an impact on the story. Jim and Blair are chasing a gang and get in over their heads.
The story unfolds at a slow pace. Like Jim waking from unconsciousness, the reader slowly becomes aware of their predicament and just how bad it is.
The characterizations are dead-on. The pacing is great. The dialogue is perfect. The writing crisp.
Don't let the fact that the story is gen fool you.
