FILL: The More They Stay the Same [1/2]

[messageredacted]

(Since this prompt hasn't been filled yet, thought I'd jump in).

i. Sherlock doesn’t apologizeJohn doesn’t know why he thought things would be different when his relationship with Sherlock went from “friends” to “lovers” (or maybe just “friends with benefits” or “colleagues who get each other off once in a while” or whatever sort of label there could possibly be for this…thing they have). Perhaps he thought that Sherlock would be friendlier to him, or spend less time insulting his intelligence, or apologize once in a while, god forbid

The More They Stay the Same [2/2]

iii. Sherlock doesn’t touch himThey don’t sleep together. Sex, yes, but even if John falls asleep with Sherlock at his side, he never wakes up to him there. Sherlock doesn’t brush against him when they move around the kitchen in the morning. They don’t sit on the couch together. They don’t kiss unless they’re in bed together, and even then it’s not something Sherlock will initiate

This absolutely fantastic! Your way with words is absolutely stunning. I envy your ability to write. Seriously in-character, too.

Re: The More They Stay the Same [2/2]

[messageredacted]

Thanks! I'm relieved you think it was in character since I was nervous about that.

Awesome. Really IC, but somehow still managing to convey the care underneath the coldness.

Re: The More They Stay the Same [2/2]

[messageredacted]

Thank you. He does care, he just doesn't have much experience in showing it.

Oh, that was wonderful. Sherlock is both annoying and strangely endearing, for all his interpersonal flaws.

Re: The More They Stay the Same [2/2]

[messageredacted]

I think it's all his flaws that make him so endearing.

Aw, how did I miss this? So sweet in spite of everything.
