fan fiction for The Sentinel by: Michelle Gussow
"Hey, Jim, I got something for you." Blair Sandburg was talking excitedly before he even got all the way inside the loft.
Jim was non reactive. He was used to his roommate's over enthusiasm, and he said simply from his position on the couch, "Close the door."
Blair had been reaching into his backpack but withdrew his hand to comply with Jim's request. He plunged his hand back into the brown leather and retrieved a CD. Sticking it under the sentinel's nose he told him, "You've got to hear this."
Jim raised an eyebrow. "More jungle music, Chief?"
Blair couldn't believe it. "More?.... Jim, man, this... this band." He paused to regroup. "They're playing at the university. Kind of an old blues-new blues type thing."
Jim finally took the disc from Blair's fingers. "Old blues-new blues?" He studied the label. "The Electric Jellyfish. Some name."
Blair plopped beside him. "What's in a name? Look, I heard them rehearse. The lead guitarist, he's got this Hendrix kind of thing going." He gesticulated to make the point. "It's like totally awesome." Sandburg bounced to his feet. "I've got to dig out my strat." He thumped Jim on the shoulder with the back of his hand. "Maybe I can get him to listen to me play."
Jim sighed and shook his head. Hearing Blair scrounge around his room he rose. Opening the case he studied the insert. "Something You've Got" Mmmm. Maybe I will listen.
