Solitude: J/B, R, First Times, AU

September, 1999 (65K)
Jim is a farmer, part of an old-fashioned religious group that still embraces a traditional way of life, and Blair is a hippie drifter, who gets into deep trouble while passing through the community. They end up saving each other.

NOTE: Occasionally, someone writes me a rant to tell me how I totally got the whole Amish experience wrong, even though I have always admitted in my disclaimer that I know nothing about Amish culture, that my goal was to say something about Jim and Blair, not the Amish way of life. So now, let me make it clear that this has absolutely nothing to do with the Amish. This is my own made-up culture, a group of people set apart from mainstream society, living a more traditional life that is based on agriculture and infused with religious sensibility. And if you still feel the need to write me with complaints, at least use a valid address so I can respond. Thank you.

Oh, and there is still shameless borrowing from the movie Witness. Just not any of the Amish people.


Stories from Zines:

Photographic Evidence: J/B, NC-17, Drama

Originally published in CTYS 14
At a crime scene, Jim finds evidence of Blair's youthful indiscretions, and it forces him to confront painful and long forgotten events from his own past, as well as to navigate his feelings for his Guide.

Erotica: J/B, R, Romance

Originally published in Angel on My Mind 1
Blair feels exposed and counts on Jim to help him avoid embarrassment when a woman he dates violates his trust in a most revealing way.

Surrogate: J/B, NC-17

Originally published in CTYS 15
My take on the Jim-has-Sentinel-sex-trouble-so-the-boys-have-to-do-it theme. Some cliches are just too much fun to ignore.

Golden Haze: J/B, B/multiple partners NC-17

Originally published in CTYS 16
A missing scene from Blind Man's Bluff. I just had to wonder what was going on in Blair's head while he was out of it on golden, and somehow, this is what I came up with. Warning! It's a lot kinkier than my usual fare.


Pretender Stories

Trust: Jarod/Miss Parker, R, Drama

The more Miss Parker learns about her family the more confused she is about who she can trust. Thanks to Rubin and Angie T. for crossing the lines of fandom to beta read this for me.
