Guide's Choice by Shadde

Guide's Choice by Shadde

Fandom: THE SENTINEL
Pairing: Jim/Blair
Length: 18123 words
Author on LJ: not known
Author Website: http://brothersinarmsfiction.com/shadde/tsgen.html
Why this must be read: - Blair, student guide, resists the call to bond with Jim, at least in part because he is looking for a way to help all sentinels manage their senses without the need for a guide.

This is an interesting psychological study of the needs of guides; sentinels are covered too, but things are more hard and fast for them; they will die if they don't get a guide.

I suspect that English is not Shadde's first language; there are, I feel, one or two slight constructional awkwardnesses in her writing, but those don't detract from the thrust of the story - the need in guides to bond, a different need from that of a sentinel but nonetheless as strong.

The link isn't quite correct. Go here:

The link you put in doesn't go to her index page either. I host Shadde's stories on Brothers In Arms and the link just to her index page is:

http://brothersinarmsfiction.com/shadde/shaddetsgen.html

The link you gave was:

http://brothersinarmsfiction.com/shadde
which goes to a 404 error
so maybe the link got cut off. I have no idea. I just know I clicked on the link you gave and it came up incomplete.

Apologies, Sheila. My next post explains it better, I hope.

My apologies, Sheila. You did give the correct link to the story - I am getting new glasses next week! But the index page for Shadde's stories is
http://brothersinarmsfiction.com/shadde/tsgen.html

in case anyone would like to read her other stories
Apologies again

Interesting take on Guides and Sentinels. I enjoyed it.
