Summary: This takes place after Sen Too. Blair has not fully recovered from the drowning that left him dead for an indefinite period of time. The doctors can't find any physical reason for his complaints, and Blair's afraid they are going to tell him he's got brain damage.
Jim, meanwhile, is watching helplessly as the man he loves is fading away. He confesses to Megan that he doesn't have the right to tell Blair he loves him because of his culpability in the events that led up to Blair's drowning. Besides, he's sure that Blair is straight and he thought he was himself, so he's not ready to declare anything.
But Blair's problems go deeper than damaged lungs or panic attacks. He thinks he's having vivid nightmares, but what's really happening is that he's being pulled into the spiritual plane. And when he starts seeing ghosts who come to visit him with a warning, it's going to take every bit of Jim's love and support to help Blair survive.
Reccer's Notes: Canon kind of dropped the ball (IMO) by not pursuing Incacha's shaman blessing to Blair. Fortunately, we have a lot of talented writers who make up for that shortcoming. Whether Blair is predisposed and Incacha recognized that in him, or whether this is an aftereffect of his NDE (a la The Dead Zone), you can decide for yourself. Audra Rose will keep you riveted with this complex tale of love. Enjoy.
