OMG BE STILL MY HEART IS THAT IRENE!!?!!!!!!!??????!?!?

Wow, quick reading! And good guess. ;)

Well who else would be pretend married to Sherlock!?!?!?! It was Molly or Irene and Molly didn't use to be a "professional".

I love Sherlock but I'm not sure I like him much right now. I know he doesn't notice people and their feelings but John loves him. And telling a possibly dying man that's in love with you that you won't be returning home with him is just cruel. And of all things, telling John he went out with Adams was mean but I doubt he noticed. Now we throw Irene into the mix and who knows what's going to happen. Can't wait to find out.

Yes, Sherlock can be incredibly insensitive. After all, this is the man who let someone who loved him believe that he was dead. Not only that, but made John watch him "die". Any reasonable person would have known that that had the potential to completely break John's heart and ruin his life, however clever the reasoning behind it.

Sherlock has his reasons here too. One of them is that John said that he didn't want to work or live with Sherlock anymore (in chapter 3 or thereabouts), and Sherlock is probably trying to be sensitive to John's wishes - but missing the actual point that is obvious to anyone else every time he's anywhere near John, which is that the man still adores him. John of course, forgives him as soon as he says he'd really like John to come with him.

I think Irene is always a fun ingredient in the mix. :)

Irene?? of course!! Ok another great chapter and I'm so glad you addressed Adams' date with Sherlock, but poor John, gah, Sherlock, he really doesn't get it. I know he thinks he's saying and doing the right thing, but- gah. gah. ok I think I've emoted enough. Waiting for more, of course. And was that an Elementary mention in there?

[ariana_paris]

I know, I know, poor, poor John. As if being laid up in hospital wasn't bad enough, he has Sherlock being all insensitive and apparently laying about him with a number of ladies! Sherlock of course is just being innocently honest and trying to take into acocunt what John said about not wanting to work with him anymore. Fortunately, John is used to that kind of thing!

Why, yes, yes there is an Elementary reference in there. :)

haha! see I would watch *that* - Benedict as Sherlock as Sherlock moving to NY, to work with Lucy Liu.

(as long as he was still in love with John)*cough*

[ariana_paris]

Well, it's his co-star from Frankenstein, so that's ~nearly Benedict, right? ;)

[labellecreation]

SLY with the NYC.. seriously no, just no, London is where Sherlock belongs so cheeky you! Not sure about why Sherlock went on the date, there has to be more to it though and well if that isn't Irene.. well of course it is! Poor John..

[ariana_paris]

Sorry, I could have sworn I'd responded to this. *eyes phone suspiciously*

Indeed, poor John. Now Sherlock has two women on the go as it were. And more to the point, one of them is Irene. ;)

And I'd have to agree that Sherlock in NY is just wrong.

(Still love your picture. squee!)

Loved everyone's mind games. And loved Irene turning up. :-)

[ariana_paris]

House certainly enjoys the mind games and I think Sherlock would enjoy playing along, even if it involves (nearly) getting his leg over with House's staff. And Irene is lots of fun to write. Chapter 9 is in beta so more coming soon!
