Review:
AKA Misadventures in Apartment Hunting. What if Jim *wasn't* so understanding about Blair staying after that first week.

I love T. Verano's writing, but I often find that her hurt/comfort ratios aren't in my favor (i.e., there's more hurt than comfort). This fic is a bit borderline in that regard, but it's just too good to not rec. On the one hand you have Blair, who has the worst luck of any human being in the entire world (and that goes double for when he's looking for apartments) and on the other hand you have Jim, who doesn't particularly want a roommate, but whose blessed protector instincts are kicking in big time. Couple that with great writing and some truly inventive roommate issues and you have a solid fic that looks at the Jim/Blair friendship from an unusual perspective.

T is one of my favorite writers and I adore this story.

I podficced it, if anybody would rather listen than read. I just copied the entry from my podfic page.
