Thanks, Annie! My job here is done. :-)

I wish I could say that the next part will be up as quickly, but I'd be lying. The first two parts have been sitting around for a while, waiting for me to be able to tease part three out of my brain. Even after some really helpful feedback from verityburns, it took a while. I think I just need to be disciplined and sit down to write even when I'm not feeling it.

YAY for part three!!

Sherlock not being able to play his violin and dropping the bow is such a sad image, but I love John in this.

Your last two paragraphs are perfect. Just absolute perfection.

My fingers are crossed for both of them...

Ah, good. I was hoping the violin bow clattering to the floor would zing somebody in the angst heartstrings!

Wow. Must now try to go top perfection... :-D

BTW, you should see some of the plot suggestions people are making for this over on sherlockbbc. Talk about angst. So far, I've got (1) Mycroft forcing Sherlock into hospital for the operation and BAMF!John busting him out and then they go on the lam together, returning eventually to 22B so that Sherlock can die at home and (2) both of them making a suicide pact to "drink kool-aid" should Sherlock's health decline. I appreciate the enthusiasm but I felt as though maybe I should be handing out Prozac!

Bloody hell! I wondered why there weren't more comments here - so you've posted the stories separately, rather than just posting links to your journal on the comm? You'll get dizzy with comments popping up all over the place!

Can I put in a (fairly confident, knowing you) vote against 'Sherlock dying at home'? I do NOT need to read this!

Do you have a clearer idea yourself where you want to take this now? It's a very strong start, I'm so in love with those last lines!
