The Sentinel
The Awakening (Jim/Blair)
Detective Jim Ellison doesn’t want a Guide. What he wants is peace and quiet and maybe for his ex-wife to disappear. Dr. Blair Sandburg, a successful profiler with the FBI, has nearly given up on finding his Sentinel. Then the night came where one’s pain drew the other across the country – neither will ever be the same.

Author Note: Feel free to leave a note suggesting a fandom I should check out. You never know when something might inspire me!

Just finished reading your sentinel story for i believe is the third time. I really liked it. Thought I would send you some feedback since i didn’t the first two times i read it. Silly of me not to.
Also saw your note about suggesting fandoms. I have two to suggest. Been trying to get some really talented writers to come join the fandoms in hopes of gettting long angsty stories out of em…hehehe.
Two fandoms I recommend are Firefly and Chuck. I really got into both fandoms because of the actor Adam Baldwin. He is so hot! And a good actor. In Firefly you have alot of pairings I personally like River/Jayne and Mal/Jayne. Jayne being the character played by Adam Baldwin.
The only pairing in Chuck that I enjoy is Chuck/Casey, Casey being the character played by Adam Baldwin. They are both good shows and below are some links in case your interested.

i’ve read a lot of Sentinel fic….but this is by far my favorite…a sequel (when will you ever find the time???
) would be welcomed with open arms!

Just wanted to say I love your rules, I love your attitude and I really love your stories! Keep rocking it out…
Keira Marcos said
The rules are my way of responding to assholes who post horrible things on my website since I don’t actually approve their comments.
Freemountin said
Hi, Keira!
I’ve spent many hours enjoying your writings, and some parts I return to over and over as ‘pick-me-up’ when the rain falls (literally or not). Thank you.
If you’re in the market for a new fandom, why not check out one of the oldest? Star Trek fanfiction has been around longer than the internet, and since the Reboot movie it’s more interesting than ever.
Hugs to you, and may you always find inspiration enough!

I would like to recomend my new passion – Supernatural. I tried to watch it when it was first on, but it didn’t catch my fancy. Then last year they added a new character, an angel named Castiel. He rescued Dean from hell and seems to feel that Dean is his protect. The dynamics between Dean and Cas are very hot. One of the running ‘jokes’ is that Castiel doesn’t seem to understand personal space and he’s always standing less than a foot away from Dean. Like I said, VERY HOT.

Buffy – for the sheer potential and the very fact that I think that my favorite character Xander was overseen in the show. There’s a lot of hot guys and Xander once tells his whitchy friend to ‘gay me up’ in one of the episodes. Spike, who is a vampire in the show, lives with him in his basement for a while – tied up in a chair. This is only one of the pairing possible and I hope you will give the show a chance (if you haven’t seen some it before). Mal from Firefly is a bad guy in the 7th season of this show (freaked me out the first time I saw a picture of the guy). Well:P up to you – can’t wait to see what more you’ll write (and when you will update you SGA longer SGA stories).
Keira Marcos said
Confession: I’ve never watched a single episode of Buffy but I did watch five episodes of Angel one day when there was a marathon on TV and I was too sick to look for the remote.
junnights said
Just struck me – NCIS. I know you’ve at least read some – but would love to see a Keira Marcos NCIS story:) Love a vulnerable Tony… but its up to you:) hehe – I’ll just wait and see what you’ll be posting.
Diva0789 (Michelle) said
oh hell yes…NCIS!!!! Gibbs.Tony Slash from Keira??? i’m so totally there ( well, i will be if you ever delve into that fandom!!!)
lili said
me three!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ncis by keira would rock my fanfic world! *begs* please!?!?!?!? */end beg*
Alwaysand said
If you have ever seen the show then may I reccomend Due South? Its been around a very long time but it never loses its appeal. It has an archive at squidge.org with a couple of thousand stories. My favorite pairings are Fraser/RayK Ray/Ray and RayK/Turnbull.
Diva0789 (Michelle) said
nd my new and sadly underfed obsession is NCIS:LA…Sam/G slash is hard to find but grrrr….i want it bad!
marmalade said
You mentioned on fanfiction.net that you used to write star trek, what about writing some kirk/spock or some amanda/sarek those pairings have a lot of potential (both tapped and untapped) I think you could really write some awesome ones
oh! what about xena fics, I’m really fond of Joer/Ares and Cupid/Strife (god of mischief).
…. Ok so I know I have issues, but they’re lovely issues to have
Keira Marcos said
I never watched Xena so I couldn’t write that with any kind of skill. I am tempted by Kirk/Spock. I’ve never slashed them and of course, I’m tempted all to hell and back to do it. Still, if i fell into that fandom I’m afraid I’d never come back– I feel the same way about Farscape. I adore Farscape too much to write fic for it. I’d be obessed forever.
renee said
You say obsession like it’s a bad thing ! I was like that with Sentinel slash for a while since it was the first slash I ever read (took me a while to figure out Blair was a boy) but now I go in waves from fandom to fandom.
purrfus said
I had a dream that you had written a fic about NCIS:LA crossing with Stargate and SGA. Hetty had some connection with the political powers that be, and Callen ended up with Matthew. I know it sounds corny, but it really happened. The alarm went off this morning, and after hitting the snooze I dreamed I was reading fic, and it had to be yours because it was Matthew. Unless you’ve given someone else permission to write about him? I checked as soon as I had access to the computer, and while I wasn’t really surprised to see there wasn’t a Callen/Matthew fic I was sorta sad. Maybe someday.
Keira Marcos said
No one has asked if they could borrow Matt — lol — but I would definitely say yes to a Callen/Matt fic if I was asked. That’s made of TEH HOT. I’m jealous of your dream!
Stardragon said
Yes! NCIS, any NCIS! Somehow NCIS and Keira Marcos just seems like a natural mix.
Oh what you could do with Mark Harmon in a story.
Also, how about one of the CSI shows? There are a lot of choices.
lili said
Oh HELL YES!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can just imagine all the filthy and immoral things kira could do to mark harmon *drools at mental images* makes me wish i could write!!
Kitson said
Hi
I have just Awakening for the first time, it is really brilliant, words cannot say how good you are.
I have read all your comments on Ties that Bind so I know you have a really full year but a sequel to this would be really brill.
Good luck and all my love with the baby, 3 years ago we found out that I cannot
K.
Keira Marcos said
I’ve had a heartbreaking three years on the baby topic. I feel like this is my last year to try. The last year I’m going to let myself get built up for this. It’s just not– there just has to be a time when I stop tortureing myself, right?
Kitson said
It’s just not – you said it all with those few words.
Much love K.

since we are talking other fandoms and crossover fics, let me just add my $.02, please. there is very little of it, but one author has written a crossover between SGA and Eureka. McKay comes *back* to Eureka for a few months to work on a project and Sheppard comes with. They have a house and set up housekeeping together. McKay there is in his element. more minions to torture and even some who can keep up, like Henry. and Sheppard and the Sheriff bond, as the only 2 men in town who drink beer and watch football and would like to do this on superbowl sunday, rather than have a robot war. these particular fics are really well written; there is little sex, the point of view is the sheriff, and watching John and Rodney interact is just the best. and its funny.
i so want more of this series. and this crossover.
i did find a few small stories which incorporate eureka, but not much. there is a short multi crossover fic, with eureka, sga and the pretender.
not written but can you imagine ms parker on Atlantis. lol imagine rodney meeting ms parker. shepard protecting rodney from ms parker. teyla kicking ms parker’s ass? ronan and ms parker? wonder if there would actually be any talking with them, or would there just be sex?
Keira Marcos said
I watched Pretender and I adored Miss Parker. I’ve only watched three episodes of Eureka but my husband LOVES that show.
erin said
Pretender fan fiction was the first fan fiction i ever read as an adult. i remember how dumbfounded i was when i found it on the web back in the 90’s. long before there was much out there other than Star Trek and SWars, of course. but it lent and i guess lends itself so well to fanfiction since there are these established and messy relationships and then the-attraction-that-should-not-be between Ms Parker and Jared. and the joy of reading a story that focused more on the relationship then the show did And the best part of all; they actually get it on!! i remember in one of the stories they actually had kids~ and yet, she was still chasing him for the Centre!! LOL
I saw where the actor Micheal Weiss was in a play in Chicago recently. and i think there was a mini Pretender reunion of the actors, for a convention or something? and i guess he has openly come out as gay. Ms Parker is all over the tv. and yes, everytime i see the actress show up, its Ms Parker who has entered the room!!
Do you watch The Big Bang Theory on CBS?? I keep waiting for them to ask David Hewlett to guest star on it. Play himself, play Rodney… just want him on the show. Can’t you see him as a visiting professor to their University and being smarter than Sheldon? Sheldon would be more Rodney than Rodney!! and the 3 other guys would just be in awe of Sheppard, his coolness, his way with the woman (Penny would be all over him and he *wouldnt see it coming*. I can see them trying to emulate him. LOL. and you know Sheppard would just love the comic book store!!
On a completely unrelated note, have you seen the ebay sales for Stargate goodies?? i myself have bid on a piece of the stairs. But with my bid, i let go any fantasy that there will ever be a SGA movie. You can break down the sets. you can put them in storage. you can sell of the costumes after they have sat in storage for years. actors change and they can just sew more. the SGA uniforms werent exactly from “The Runway” show. but if you break down the huge staircase that is one of the main focal points of the gateroom and then sell of the parts? well, you arent going to be needing it again, are you?
Keira Marcos said
No– I haven’t been to ebay to buy and I won’t. You’re right– we aren’t getting a movie and it’s just one more FUCKING lie the told us about SGA. They said they wouldn’t cancel it to do Universe– two days later it was cancelled. They said they would do movies and now they’re selling off pieces of the set. Just fuck them. I’m so serious about that. I have Universe on my DVR but I haven’t actually watched a single episode. I’m not sure I ever will.
fanarts_series said
For SGA i was awakened at 4 PM for watch the show, for SGU sometimes i wait 2 weeks to see a single episode, isn’t my cup of tea, missed the gate, the ships and a crew and i’m disappointed by the characters and the ship, the gate, we don’t see it so much, no much stargate so, it’s a copy of voyager and bsg for me.
Do you like vampire fanfics keira ? do you think about write one someday ?
If you like vampire show, try True Blood.
You can try NCIS (love Gibbs/tony so much) Numb3rs (love the pairing Colby/David, the banter between them is so good) Castle (it’s too much het but good and Nat fillion is amazing good in it).
After there’s supernatural, you can slash castiel/dean (Dean/Sam is to creepy, come on they’re bro for god’s sake lol).
Due South is very good and the slash is fun.
X-files is a classic and always a good fandom and show to play.
gaia said
Graham and Xander from Buffy coz you dont see it enough
purrfus said
If you are thinking about vampires – how about Henry from Blood Ties? TPTB messed around so much the show didn’t last long, but there were a few familiar faces, and oh Henry!
fanarts_series said
Henry is yummie, he can bite me when he want, and the story was interesting, the cancellation was a shame because i love Dylan Neal and Christina Cox (two characters who playing for keira and us BTW).
Alwaysand said
I think I mentioned this in a comment to one of your story chapters when someone else brought it up but DieHard 4 is good. There should be more John/Matt in the world. Plus the work on their own as well as in stories you already have goinyg.
AmyCat =^.^= said
One fandom I’ve not seen recc’d here: “White Collar”. Neal Caffrey’s a HOT con-man/forger/thief who’s now on a conditional release from prison, supervised and working for the FBI agent (Peter Burke) who caught him. He’s “using his super-powers for GOOD”, helping solve crimes instead of committing them. Other characters include Peter’s wife Elizabeth, who’s so charming, funny, and bright that any “slash” pairing between Neal and Peter will HAVE to include El and be a “threesome”. The most recent episodes have all had scenes that can only be described as “FanGrrl Catnip”… SO much subtext! *purrr*
I’d LOVE to see what you’d do with it… but I also want the next stories in your “Sentinels Of Atlantis” and “What Might Have Been” universes.
Oh, and I’ll second the others who recc’d “NCIS”. I’d love to see what you do with Tony and Gibbs.
Hmm… Thought of one more: “The Mentalist”…
jewel said
Have you ever considered Criminal Minds? I love all of the characters, especially Spenser Reid. I think that you could do a lot with them. There is another old and short-lived tv show you might try. Houston Nights was the title. If you can find it. I agree with the NCIS Gibbs and Tony. I would love to see that.
marmalade said
I had what I think is an awesome idea, a sequel to this where they adopt the child guide rodney after something happens to his parents and sets him online, he has all sorts of drama and meets a teenage or slightly adult john (just before, after, or on leave from the airforce) and the meeting triggers him to come online! I would LOVE to see you write it or a version of it… whether it contains atlantis or not…. so what do you think?! yes, no, maybe, hell no….
marmalade said
if not maybe I’ll give writing it a go….it would be awful but I think this is a plot line that I need to go down….
Keira Marcos said
While I welcome anyone to do AUs of the universes I create– I wouldn’t want anyone to claim they’d written a sequel to something I’d written. Mostly because I like to leave myself room to write sequels to almost everything I write whether I intend to do it or not.
marmalade said
of course…has anyone else written au’s off your work – with permission – ? if so it would be nice to have a section on the site for them or a link to some of your favorites
Keira Marcos said
Not that I’m aware of. People have asked but I don’t think they’ve posted anything OR at least they haven’t told me.
marmalade said
only with your permission of course!
chrisking2005 said
I still think the Tardis idea has merit. And, ya know, maybe cloning? Then we could send you and your clones off in the Tardis in the morning, you and the Keira clones would write five or six novels, and still be home in time for morning tea. Or one of those fancy coffees you like.
*has a braingasm thinking about having five or six new Keira Marcos novels to read*
Coldcheese said
Hi Keira,
I discovered your site several months ago and I’ve nearly read everything here. I just love your SGA fic and I’m thrilled whenever there’s a new update. As for suggestions of fandoms that could benefit from your writing, I can add a vote for Supernatural. Also, and oldie but goodie, are you familiar with Highlander? I wouldn’t be able to hold back the fangirl squee if you wrote about Methos. I can just picture him in your Ties that Bind ‘verse. So many possibilities!
Thanks for all the wonderful fic!
purrfus said
I was watching Highlander this weekend, and the original Methos episode was on. It wasn’t the best Highlander ever but Wingfield is oh so yummy, and the character has so much unrealized potential.
Keira – in your copious amounts of spare time – please?
With whip cream, cherries, and syrup on top?
marmalade said
i’ve been watching eureka and i thought how awesome would it be if you did a sga/eureka crossover where rodney and john go to consult…it would be MADE OF AWESOME!!
fanarts_series said
Thanks to the lj sentinel fanfictions finders i discover a amazing author who please me a lot.
In the BDSM world for the sga fandom we have Xanthe, puddle of goo and you darling.
I read the fics by Jane Davitt Point of Contact and Loss of Contact and it’s pretty amazing.
http://www.janedavitt.com/PointContact.html

Read its if you don’t know because it’s gorgeous, we see the scale into a d/s relationship and it’s wonderful and credible.

The Awakening was great! I came across it once by accident and enjoyed it very much. I wanted to read it again a couple of months later, and couldn’t remember where I had found it the first time. I joined the Sentinel ficfind community on Livejournal so I could find your story again. I actually got the answer within ten minutes! I liked The Awakening so much that I hunted it down. Smile. Great wrting! I liked how Jim and Blair seemed destined for each other. I liked how Blair waited for years for ‘his’ Sentinel, rather than settle. I liked how Jim woke out of a sound sleep and crossed a country for Blair. I enjoyed the fact that they were equal partners to each other. I liked how they worked together to support and protect their people. Wonderful story! I’d like to hop on the recommendation bandwagon. I have recently started reading the slash pairing of Derek Morgan and Spencer Reid from the CBS television show Criminal Minds. There aren’t many stories featuring them (the ones I’ve read were on fanfiction.net), but I thought they made an interesting pairing. The big buff tough but smart guy paired with the frail looking but cute and highly intelligent genius who has managed to use his brain to save the day more than once. I would love to see what you might come up with for this pairing.
