fic: sherlock - "equivalence"

Jan 28, 2011 17:43

[Original author's note redacted.]

12/2011: I have gotten about fifteen PMs asking whether this fic will continue to stay around on the internet, and the answer is yes. It can also be found here on AO3 in the case that this journal is taken down. Anyone is free to save my fic to their hard drive, but I ask that you please do not repost it ( Read more... )

transfic, *sherlock, !fic, this story is about me

Flec, I have the email you wrote about this, and I still reread it, it makes me feel really proud and glad of this, thank you for being so kind.

...I pick this fic up, hug it close, kiss its forehead and keep it with me forever.

Introoooooooooooooooooooooooo -clings- It's beautiful.

I... Speechless.

Headcanon. And - just - oh, YOU. YOU, okay? fkadjf;adkfjadflakjdfa If you ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever just - need anything, I don't know everything, I'm always here and I love this and you and I kind of want to stab that one teacher of yours sometimes, quietly. And if you ever want to just talk to me. Really. Short of being asleep, there's always at least one way to yell at me for attention, and you have several.

(I want to write something in response to this, a sequel or a companion or even just slip in a reference to Mycroft's new male assistant whom John swears he's seen before or something but I feel it would be SO VERY INADEQUATE, whatever I do.)

This fic may or may not be the equivalent of a love declaration to you. :P

Regardless. <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Thank you so much for reading and commenting. ♥ I think this is probably the reaction I was hoping for, so I'm glad it came across that way, having been so difficult to write. :)

Wow.
I don't usually comment on fanfic. It's terrible of me, I know, but I don't. Except for the times when I find a story that really is gorgeous, that I can't just keep quiet about, and this is one of them.

This was so incredibly personal, and at the same time, incredibly relateable- for me, at least- and it never lost a bit of its impact for all that the characters are just that, characters. This didn't read like fanfiction, but it meshed with the universe in such a way to make it impossible to be anything else.

So. I'm, er, gushing. Sorry about that. But this is wonderful, and thank you.

Oh, hey, don't apologize. Thank you for reading, and I'm glad you took the time to tell me what you thought. I was initially apprehensive that people wouldn't like this story because it seemed pretty far removed from the canon, but I'm glad that it's the other way around -- that people think it's instead a viable addition to the canon.

This was somewhat terrifying to write and to put out there, especially owning up to the fact that this story contains so much of me, but comments like yours make me feel good about having put this out there. I appreciate the feedback, thank you. :)
