Wow! I really loved this! After it ended I was just staring at the screen for a few minutes, eyes wide and blinking really slowly before I went: "That's it? Thank God." (That sounds bad, but I mean it in a 'It ended happy (or really, happier)' and way not with Sherlock chopping to Sherlock to bits and you roller-coastering my emotions (EVEN MORE!).

I love the rationalization of Sherlock's brain. It's not really John, so it's okay to rape him.

I just loved how many layers of this there were. There's the hospital and the bed and the kitchen and the prison and then really John. It was lovely. Really lovely.

Thanks! Yeah, I didn't want to drag out the ending. Hope it wasn't too sudden.

Haha yes, Sherlock's brain is a scary place (and that's why I like it)!

And wolf-in-sheep's-clothing John, although he didn't keep Sherlock around for long. Again, thank you very much!

No, not too sudden. I was just enraptured in the story. The fact that it's Sherlock's mind made the shifts really good, flitting from instance to instance, just the way his brain must work. And yeah, Sherlock's a scary place, and you captured it well, I do believe.

Now we know all the most secret desires and fears of Sherlock. Fascinating!
I really liked it. Briliant!

Wow, I just found this and I think it is one of the most creepy and disturbing things that I have ever read here, in no small part to the fact that each dream segment was so believable on some level. The part where Lestrade told Sherlock that he had cut John up into little pieces.... *SHUDDER!*

So creepy and disturbing! Can't tell you how grateful I am that it was all dreams and hallucinations, though even that is still pretty perturbing - all those possibilities existing in Sherlock's mind. Yeek.

Wow... for a moment there, I really thought Sherlock would actually rape the real John without realizing it truly _was_ reality after all.
Wow. I'm.. blown away. I love your fics, I'll be creeping around your journal quite a bit from now on, I think. Mind if I friend you?

Yes this could have gone a lot darker! Still, a change in hairstyle is a scary justification. "Omg John, don't cut your hair if you don't want me to rape you!"

Thanks very much, and sure you can :)

Hehhe.
"Omg John, don't cut your hair if you don't want me to rape you!"
<-- I laughed at that very hard and didn't even feel bad. I think that might make me a bad person.

I wish I could write a nice long comment telling you just how great of a writer I think you are and just how great I think this story is but it would take FAR too long. So just know that this story is FLAWLESS and you are so very talented. :)
