Joanna looks in the mirror and sees her sister.

Obviously not in a literal sense, no, but. It's

Here goes, unfortunately I fail at HTML (2/?)

[brightest_wings]

Sherlock explodes his flat on a regular basis and shoots things and keeps entire corpses in the fridge, in some combination of parts, and there is always something living in the flat besides Sherlock and Joanna--mold experiments, algae, mushrooms, mice, a peacock (best not to ask

Here goes (3/?)

Sherlock and Joanna exchange looks; Sherlock carefully puts his bow down. "Show me his record first. Give me a complete profile on him

Here goes (4/5)

"I swear to God," Lestrade says hotly, over Mycroft's rich chuckle, and takes a sip of the champagne. Before dating Mycroft Holmes, he'd have said it was the best stuff he'd likely ever taste in his life. Right now, standing at Mycroft's elbow, he can tell it's a bit flat. He drinks, and nods at a tall black-suited back. "He's not looking at her

"He really won't care."

"I care," she says, more sharply than she means to, and pinches the bridge of her nose before she can help herself. "It's not--it isn't transport to me, okay

This is amazing. So well written, so wonderfully understated in tone. Thank you. Truly marvelous.

you do something like smile or laugh, or something ordinary and stupid and pointless and--"

He looks down to take something out of his pocket, and drops it into her hand: it's the missing earring. "And I can't breathe."

Just perfect!

This was so beautiful -- I read it last night, and I'm still thinking about it! <3

This was really good and super sweet! I loved it! I especially liked the line, "And I can't breathe." That made me sigh dreamily and go, "Jo, you had better kiss him for that..." Great job!

Op here. I love you. Internet cookies for life. I mean this is wonderful. Better then I would have hoped. I started pulling my favorite parts but I would have to copy and paste the whole thing. I loved Jo as one of the guys on base. I love how she was bad ass she was in the dress. I love Mycroft and Lestrade together, they were so cute! And I love Sherlock at the end. All in all a perfect fill. Thank you so much! All I can say is more please? ;-). Maybe Harry being pissed that Jo's got such a good looking partner. ;-P. Thanks again.

Wow. The little earring gesture killed me. This is so sweet.

Oh, my heart.

Oh my God, I want to make out with all of your girl!John x Sherlock fics. SERIOUSLY. They give me the biggest case of fluffy bunnies in my heart, they are so adorable and so perfectly written. I really love the relationship between Sherlock and Joanna in this. That bit where the 3rd man notices the two and observes that Sherlock really wants to kiss Joanna? I melted. ♥ But yes, Sherlock loves Joanna no matter what she's like (and I am biased towards freckles, so noooo makeup don't cover them!) and all is well in the world.

Thank you thank you thank you for writing this. Not the OP but damned if I didn't enjoy it all the same!
