Oh, amazing. I love this from beginning to end. Jim's snarky death puns are wonderful, and I now have this image of him sitting on the roof, fake blood running down his back, checking his tumblr, reblogging like a maniac, just waiting for Seb to show up :D

You've also managed to infuse a poignancy that runs under all of the jokes and the snark, which is just lovely. May Jim's adventures never end!

Jim wants to know if you're his follower on Tumblr. You seem to know so much about him! He reblogs like a maniac any time he finds himself behind on all those wonderful Dr. Who gifs. XD

Thanks so much for reading!

What's Jim's tumblr name? I gotta follow him!

Unsurprisingly, it's Jim-in-Westwood over there too. ;) There's a lot of Moran threatening anyone who likes Jim's posts, ha-ha.

yo! moffit/gatiss! this here. now this is the real deal. bunches of words/phrases/images/feelings that absolutely ring true. and are worthy of the world's greatest. be it consulting criminal or consulting detective. after all in a series where dead/not dead is the new black. how could it be anything else? free tip for sure.

and jim? fuck you dude. fuck. you. in all the best ways. and anytime. srsly. anytime. you clever clever man!♥♥♥

Wow, if that's not the most impressive compliment I've ever gotten, I don't know what is. Thank you so much!

And Jim says, with all his love, fuck you too. That's the nicest thing anyone's ever said to him. XXX

Just gotta say, this is probably the best fic I've read in YEARS. Just the way you wrote it, the repetition and continuity was perfect, the idea was brilliant, and the execution is just beautiful. Characterisation was just what I was looking for :D Thank you!!

Thanks so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed it! I don't know where the Jim voice comes from in my fics, but they're too much fun to write.

It's funny. I've recently had a giant lapse in reading fanfics, but yesterday I somehow (can't quite remember) stumbled into this blog and read everything Moriarty/Moran and LOVED IT. I'm now reading everything I can get my hands on that keeps my attention for more than the first paragraph. But honestly, your writing style is impeccable and your structure is to die for! I wish I could write as well as you do!

(God, I sound like such a suck-up) But honestly, you are probably my favourite fandom writer ever. And you hit the mark so high you're in direct competition with some noteworthy published authors as well. Just... basically what I want to say is, you're amazing, and you should keep up the brilliant work because... I need something to read. :)

These are some lovely compliments you're flinging at me, and you've quite made me blush. I'm pleased by my own little take on Jim and Sebastian, but it always really makes me thrilled when someone else likes how it turns out as well. I'm hoping to do Jim's take on some of the events in Hounds as my next fic, so hopefully you won't be disappointed by my future endeavors. Thanks so much!

I love some Seb/Jim! I can't get enough and Jim just had me rolling through this! His death jokes, I can really hear them in his voice!

I really feel bad for Moran he is just worried about Jim and well Jim is Jim and isn't going to give him a minute of peace. I love the dynamic between these two.

Just love the story!

Thanks so much! Knowing that you can hear everything in Jim's voice is a very high compliment. That's what I'm always aiming for, and I'm also pleased that you were laughing. Thanks for reading!
