Hi, I'm Rhiannon-Jehane, and I'll be your crack_van driver for The Sentinel this month.

Fandom: THE SENTINEL
Pairing: Jim/Blair
Author on lj: veronicaluv

Why this must be read:

I’m a sucker for stories where the guys confess their feelings and then are promptly separated. In The Sun From Both Sides, a rookie who’d gone to the academy with Blair is killed in the line of duty. This prompts Blair to confess to Jim the feelings he's been quietly harboring, but it also brings up some old, unresolved issues between them. The separation comes when Blair decides that the best thing for both of them is for him to move out, promising to come home when he knows Jim truly trusts him. And since Jim has a teensy little problem when it comes to trust, it may be a long wait before Blair is back at the loft… and maybe Jim isn't the only one with issues.

The Sun From Both Sides

There's also a short epilogue/companion piece from Simon’s point of view, called Penumbra.

Thanks for reminding me of the author. The story is a little gem. I want to visit the houseboat.
