Oh, lovey!
What on earth were you so hesitant about posting this for?! It's absolutely well-written, and stunningly, achingly, heart-wrenchingly beautiful. Of the both of us, I now claim the right to feel inadequate!
The last paragraph has torn my heart into shreds. Oh, Holmes, how you tried. ::stifles a sob::
I now have the sudden urge to thoroughly beat Watson with his own cane due to his stupidity...
Amazing work, dear.

Thank you for the compliments! I have never written Sherlock Holmes before, so I was quite nervous.

I imagine that by the time Watson is reunited with Holmes once more, his memory will have returned to him. And their reunion can be properly celebrated.

This was absolutely wonderful, thank you so much for posting it. The emotions are amazing and hurty in all the right ways.

I am pleased you like it! Thank you for reading it.

This story; I can't. Oh, Holmes. Oh, Watson. Gorgeous work.

Thank you so much! This pairing is too much for me. And all of the emotion stuff they gave us in A Game of Shadows was fantastic.

I adore this. The tension between them is so palpable and heartaching. I also love the little canon references you've sprinkled on top - my inner nerd is grinning madly. Lovely work!

Thanks for reading! I always like to tie everything I write in to canon as much as possible, so I'm glad it worked for you. Thanks for your comments!

love you're writing style, you characterized them very well

Thank you! I tend to be over descriptive when I write. I'm always worried that it is going to put people off, but when I write, it is my way of working through the characters and their motivations in whatever fandom I'm working in. I'm glad you liked it.
