Glass Fish by Spyke (R)
I started this month with a Spyke story and I'm going to close with another. I've had a fun time exploring the possibilities in Jim's heightened senses and I hope you've found my recs interesting.
Fandom: THE SENTINEL
Pairing: Jim Ellison/Blair Sandburg
Length: 10,500 words
Author on LJ: Unknown

Why this must be read:
It's Blair's first day as a detective in Major Crimes and Jim is searching for a gift. He comes across a beautiful glass sculpture of a fish created by an artist with hyper acute vision. Jim feels a connection with the artist and his own vision begins to flash in and out of microscopic depths. He's seeing too clearly, especially Megan and Blair's growing interest in each other. This is a slow, quiet story as Jim becomes aware of his own feelings and tries to do the decent thing.
"Hey." Blair turned to her, smile a little warmer, heart slightly faster and Jim automatically widened his nostrils to check for a musk increase.
Musk increased. Well, well...
"I thought this might be appropriate for today, being special and all." She handed Blair the box.
"Hey, wow, um, thanks." Blair jiggled his gift slightly. "Can I open it?"
"Sure," and Megan watched as Blair unwrapped it carefully, nervousness making him work slowly, peeling each layer with the deft indelicacy of someone using his fingers for tweezers. Jim zoomed in on Blair's trembling hands and gave up with a scowl.
"Give that to me Sandburg, I've disarmed bombs in less time -" Jim stopped, his outstretched hand falling limp, the offer of help dying even as twin gazes swung towards him, eyes widening in surprise.
Jim blinked.
Shit. No way

Was this a moment?
