GLKSDFJRKEH KEYBOARD SMASH I am slain, slain I say from awesome. Seriously. I'm on my mobile so I can't leave long comments, but this not-op reader is just thrilled at what you've done with the concept and offers you Internet hearts, flowers, cookies, and other tokens of affection.

Equivalent Exchange (7/8ish)

[anonymous]

John half-expects Sherlock to stop watching so intently, now that John has told him the whole truth, but Sherlock doesn't. Sherlock seems to want to study John more. It's not just when John does alchemy any more. It's when John's making tea and when John's trying to interview a witness and when John nods off while on trains. John hopes he hasn't grown an extra head without noticing or something like that, because he can't figure out what Sherlock finds so interesting

"Look," John says, "I just want to ask you a few questions

........................WHAT. D: WHAT. OH MY GOD. WHAT. THIS IS THE END??? /CRIES

AAAAAHHHHH FFFFFFFU- NOOOOOOOOO *weeps* *is tramautized*

While I was holding out for a happy ending, this probably fits better with the overall tone of the piece. ;_; There's no way Sherlock wouldn't give human transmutation a shot if he thought he had a reason to, especially for John. And of course he'd never believe for an instant that he wouldn't succeed.

(...although...the ending doesn't necessarily say that he doesn't succeed. Just that he hasn't been near his computer...)

(...and now I wonder if there's a John-homunculus waking up somewhere.)

HOLY FUCK THAT ENDING SWEET FUCK.

I CAN'T EVEN-

TWO FOR YOU, BECAUSE THAT ENDING IS RIDICULOUSLY ENGAGING AND IT TOOK BALLS (I SAY AS I STARE AT THE BROKEN PIECES OF MY HEART ALL OVER THE FLOOR).

Okay, by the end of the sixth part I was whimpering, WHIMPERING, OUT LOUD, UNABASHEDLY. I HAVE CRIED, SQUEALED, YELLED, LAUGHED, EXPLODED over fic, but never once, NEVER, have I whimpered. Oh my God.

AND THEN THE ENDING - FU*- HELL.

YOU BROKE ME.

oh my god.

-tiny, keening, quiet noise of despair-

I need either
a) sequel
b) happy epilogue
c) fluff

God. I just - I want to write a happy ending in; I want to set it so that they live, escape to Wales and get married and live happily ever after with everybody assuming they're dead, I don't know, but then I don't because it would just cheapen the beautiful, broken-glass perfection that is the ending...

I need a cuddle. So badly.

Still whimpering.

What? WHAT? What? o_O That was EVIL. My mind just went to sad places that makes me want to CRY. And then running for hopeful places that weren't that helpful. ;_; Cruel and unusual punishment, yo. But if anyone can do it right, Sherlock can. Because he's a HOLMES. And they can do ANYTHING.

NO. NO. ANON. YOU GET BACK HERE RIGHT NOW AND FIX THIS. *weeps*

I loved every single second of this. It was a beautiful mix of the 2 fandoms and John's pain was beautifully rendered. But oh! The ending. My poor, poor broken heart. :'(

Re: Equivalent Exchange (8/8)
