Review:
Blair and Jim have just managed to settle back into normal life after the Alex incident, when Jim starts noticing that he's getting better at reading people. *Much* better, in fact, so much so that Blair starts talking ESP (albeit, ESP in a very scientific, reading body language, anthropologically explainable way). At the same time, Blair suddenly becomes almost impossible to read. Wonder why.

As much as I love romances, it's sometimes nice to read a story where the romance is secondary to an actual plot, especially when the plot is as interesting as this one is. Jim and Blair are both well-written and in character, and Jim's new super-power is carefully thought out and plausible. Plus it's fun watching a whole new round of testing (with an added bonus of the downsides of actually being able to know what people are thinking about you). A good fic for those looking for a break from relationship angst.
