Fic: The River so Dark, the Night so Quiet, Sherlock, John

So, I wrote something. I not only wrote something, but I finished it after what felt like two years of not writing and not finishing anything. I'm curiously nervous about it.

(I know this is a super-fast comment - I wanted to read fast and say something before I left my office!)

This is the perfect thing to take with me as I watch for the first time this weekend. :) ♥ And then I can read your other fics!

I'm so nervous, it's the first time I wrote BBC Sherlock! I'm quite fond of my other Holmes stories, but they are written in such a different style to suit the feel of the "original" Sherlock Holmes.

But this one was fun, and I wanted a comfort story, so it's partly written for myself, I guess. <3

Have a lovely weekend, bb. <3

Oh honey, I'm actually speechless! It's so beautiful, and you captured them really well. Thank you!!! *squishes*

[loreley_se]

Actually - would you be ok to have it as a public post?

[kohaku1977]

Yay, you liked it! <3 I'm so glad. The moment I realised that I wanted to write it was the moment I wanted to write it for you :)

They quite stole my heart, these two. <3

And yes, I'll make it public. :)

Nice work. :) We just watched the second of series 2's episodes last night, so I was definitely in the mood to read this!

[kohaku1977]

Thank you! After 2.03, I finally had the guts to write them! So different from my other Sherlock Holmes stories, but fun! I'm glad you liked it!

I'm slightly tempted to attempt a case story now!

And I don't often read Sherlock fic, either! My friend mamishka is seriously into it these days, though. :D

[kohaku1977]

Ooooh, definitely feeling flattered now! :D

This is such a wonderful fic! I loved it so much. You have their voices down so well!

[kohaku1977]

Ooh, thank you so much! It means so much to me, especially that I got their voices right. Phew, I had hoped I'd do them justice!

Thank you for letting me know. :)

I was reading this and then had to run out the door and it was so good I had to find it on my phone to finish reading. It's adorable and in character and sweet.

Great work!

Whee, what a lovely compliment and comment! I'm so so glad you think it's in characted. It really means so much to me. <3

Thank you!!!
