This story has been so inspiring and such a wonderful thing to read. This is without a doubt my favourite Sherlock fanfic.
I look forward to any future stories!

Ahem. I'm sorry, did I just write that in a public forum? Yes, yes, I did. #noshame
Also, "so much gay royalty in one spot!" Could not finish reading the sentence through the laughter. Laughter picked right up again when you tied into it with Mel's "British queens" line. I love having a shiny, hilarious headcanon for the celebrities that merely used to baffle me.
Sherlock's reminder that yes, only for John does he give warmth to his typical cold-water dousing of any unrealistic speculation or irrational sentiment, was perfect. Also, their little in-joke about "doing people." And also, John's "moment." Because even a fictional character needs a moment to absorb that this mind-blowing shit is real, and it's happening to him!

Wow, that is quite something! I definitely wanted to finish the story before series 2 aired so I'm very glad to have met that goal. Thanks for reading!
