Oh my. That hurt, but in the best possible way. What a lovely, angsty little ficlet to add to the mems.

His death harms you in ways I cannot fix. It is personal now.

I think that may be my favorite part.

for Bill Murray who survived Afghanistan, but not being friends with John Watson

This is wrenching and powerful. Just lovely. It packs quite an emotional punch!

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it, I think it would be impossible for John not to feel responsible and to blame for Bill's death.

You killed Bill Murray, star of Caddyshack!

This is lovely, dearest. Your range as a writer is growing and blossoming.

Your comment on the beta made me laugh, because I had almost the same exchange (hence the warning note) with angelnetgirl in London.

Me: I just killed Bill Murray.
ANG: Er.... why?
Me: Because I needed someone Sherlock doesn't know, but John would be upset about.
ANG: ......
Me: The character that saved John in Afghanistan?
ANG: Oh, LOL! ...... I was wondering why you were killing the actor and why John would be upset about it.
Me: *has hysterics*

I think it's an entirely new thing for me. Writing non-relationship related angst, and in so few words too. Who knew I had it in me, I certainly didn't!
