Blair Abused as a Child, Irresponsible In-denial Naomi/Blair Abused as a Child by Step-Uncle
I'm actually looking for a series. Some stories are from Blair's POV, Jim's POV, and Simon's POV - I think there might be one or two from Naomi's POV as well. I'm not sure what triggers it, but it comes out that Blair was sexually abused as a child as a result of Naomi up and leaving him with whoever when she went roving about. During the confrontation between Blair and Naomi over his abuse he screams at her that she actually "lost" him one time - she'd left him with someone named Crystal (I think) who decided to marry mainstream and leave commune/hippy-style life behind so she dropped Blair with her cousin or maybe a neighbour who was married to a paedophile. When Jim confronts Naomi he tells her that the trauma of rape is overwhelming for Blair and Naomi dismisses him saying that using the word rape to describe what happened to Blair is a disservice to all women who've been victimised. I think Simon steps in then before Jim loses it - because he's really about to lose it. Jim goes off to the gym to pummel the boxing bag because he feels helpless that there's nothing he can do to Blair's abuser. Simon talks to Naomi, or Naomi reflects that Blair can have no idea what rape is (she is a rape survivor and her uncle is Blair's father) and basically whines that no one is taking her side or considering how difficult it was for her to raise such an intelligent and precocious child who was always asking questions, always talking, and always demanding attention. Seriously, there were a lot of fics in this series. I'd like to revisit it.
And speaking of child abuse - there's another fic where Blair almost has a step-father named Tony (who I think wrote a children's book for Blair) who is brain damaged in a flash flood on his way to Blair's baseball game. His brother is a sheriff (or FBI agent) and takes care of Blair while Tony is in the hospital and Naomi sits by his bedside. The brother is a sadist - beats Blair, rapes Blair with his service revolver - but Blair runs away to a neighbor and the neighbor sends him back to the sadist. Adult Blair, Jim, and Simon confront the neighbour about Blair's escape and the swastika-tatooed, chain-smoking a**hole proudly admits he knew what was happening to Blair and sent him back. He says they should give him a medal because he protected the town's boys by making sure the "pervert" wouldn't go after any other children since he had Blair, and it was okay because Blair's Jewish (and therefore worth less than the other boys in town).
I hope I've got enough description here to jog some memories!
