Wow. This is heartbreaking, even though it's funny, particularly

the expression on Mycroft's face when I arrived at his house composed almost entirely of blood, dirt and teeth - yes, that was more than worth it."

I love the wry tone of this, and John's resignation. It was creepy, and yet poignant and funny. Just brilliant.

Thank you very much! I'm pleased you thought it worked. I sort of fell into 'cannibalistic prompt for Christmas' I'm not sure why.

How can you write something so sad yet lovely at the same time? *shakes fist*

Wow this has got to be the strangest Sherlock fic I have read. It's more disturbing than the zombilock ones, and more creepy than the vampire or werewolf ones even the demon ones. But even with that its funny and SO Sherlock. Loved the whole bit about inviting Mycroft to dinner, the double meanings and sly comments were a delight. It's bittersweet and funny and odd and perfect.

Is it strange that instead of being horrified I was smilling at the thought of Sherlock dragging a dead body out of the bath to stash it somwhere else. The bone crunching did disturb me a bit but again not for long :)

I love it to bits :)

I really wanted to do something strange for the last story in my series, so that's nice to hear, and I'm very happy you thought I made it work. I knew it might be a tough sell.

Thank you for reading!
