I think I needed to show that this situation? is not easy, for anyone. Rewarding, sure, but not easy. Also, Moriarty wanted to say hiii, and who am I to say no?

Here, have my Molly/'Anthea' fic while I'm working on more of this series. ;) Because I am totally in agreement.

Love the Molly/Anthea fic! And I continue to love this series. We're deep in Plot now, and it's very enjoyable. I also hope you'll continue post-Plot and show a bit of life down the road for this mad, adorable trio.

^_^ I am glad you are enjoying my little stories, here... To be perfectly honest, I have no Master Plan or anything - I have a few scenes or plot points I want to hit (and frankly, the climax is being downright *stubborn* because there are like six options and none of them feel *right*), but no long properly planned Arc. D: So I'm just pleased when each installment doesn't get 'WHAT DID YOU DO YOU RUINED THE SERIES' comments.

Side note - John was actually blinking out "S.O.S" by the pool there. ;)

More importantly, GUH. As much as I love gay Sherlock and asexual Sherlock, it's fucking *brilliant* to get a well written OT3. I love the developement of Sarah's character & the meta-plot, omg...was not expecting Moriarty & you wrote him so well I could hear him.

I've loved this whole series. Hopefully Sherlock gets well soon so he can do whatever he'd been wanting to do to Sarah since that first time he took off his belt.

Oh, I love the HELL out of good ace!Sherlock, no lie. I just can't *write* it to save my life. My brain doesn't go to that place. I simply am grateful that there are writers out there who can, and do so brilliantly. :)

I am fairly certain that in this fanon, they've done the belt bit already - I haven't written all the sex that they've *had,* mostly because if so then I'd be writing for YEARS, and this series is getting long enough, thankyew. :P Though if that's a request, I'll have them bring it back while they're doing the clearly-impending kinks...

Yeah, there's more metaplot coming, too. And more Moriarty. I was actually worried that I'd written him a bit over-the-top, but then I went back and watched the end of TGG, and yeah, no, nothing can top that. But I never realized that John was blinking SOS! Drat my tiny TV! I'd just assumed it was common fanon 'till now... D:

I seem to remember someone asking Moffat or Gatiss about this on Twitter and the reply was that no, he wasn't. But that was months ago so I'm afraid I can't link the relevant post on sherlockbbc where that was discussed.

At the very least, it is convincing and awesome fanon, one of those instances where it *ought* be canon if it isn't (you know, aside from the porn).

ourdramaqueen January 5 2011, 11:36:09 UTC

YAY NEW CHAPTER! Goodness, I can totally understand Sarah - thank goodness now we know who's behind it all, and once Sherlock recovers, they can concentrate on getting Moriarty! Still in love with the dynamics between the three of them - and I love that Sarah's mother knows about the threesome and teases Sarah about 'her boys'. Haha motherly intuition > Sherlock's skills of deduction.

saathi1013 January 5 2011, 11:55:35 UTC

^_^ Thanks!
(I don't know if Sarah's mom *knows* for sure, but in my head, she's definitely one to make that kind of inappropriate joke. Sarah's more cavalier tendencies had to come from somewhere... And yeah, moms ALWAYS know, it's their JOB. :D)

MoffGat confirmed in an interview that John wasn't blinking SOS. It does look like it but it's just a fluke that Martin was blinking rapidly to show John's fear.

I believe that it was during a live chat after the PBS broadcast of The Great Game where they said this.

Meantime, can I add that I really love this series and am looking forward to the next instalment.

saathi1013 January 5 2011, 12:35:05 UTC

again, sometimes fanon > than canon. But that's why we <3 it so.

I am glad you're enjoying this, though!! ^_^

...'since the beginning?' back on the kinkmeme? O.o Then you know this was not at *all* what I expected when I started writing the fill, lol. But I am glad I have not managed to disappoint yet! :D

(Also, jeez, don't thank me, I always feel awkward. Thank YOU for reading and providing such lovely comments! Feedback is musefood, don't'cha know...)
