OMGWTFBBQ, I’m going to have to read this through a million times and work out what in all holy fuck the plot can possibly be and what happens next, and I’m really tempted to just write a couple of thousand words of Mrs Hudson sitting in her flat and drinking tea. But no, I won’t, because it’s no worse than what I did to you last time :D AND THIS CHAPTER IS SO MUCH FUN, heee, Irene threatening to manhandle Mycroft and Mary being a total badass, and DUDE YOU CHOPPED A DOG APART, but you didn’t slice up the governess and child’s hands so naturally you get a gold star for restraint.

I love Irene and Mycroft’s verbal sparring - of course she had being tied up under control :D SHE IS ALWAYS IN CONTROL.

*runs away to consider*

Yayyay :D dialogue for Irene and Mary is difficult, I feel like I'm not witty or sophisticated enough to impersonate them XD

And haha, not-chopping-hands-off bit was just for you. See, I can resist the gore, I swear. I can quit any time.

BUT I LOVE MARY'S DRY WIT IN THIS, expecially the 'my husband takes my protection very seriously' - heee :D And the slap and the pinking... mmmmm, shades of things to come, I very much hope.

Jesus, the potential for innuendos in that sentence :D

Awwww, you are so sweet to me. But don't push yourself too hard, wean yourself off slowly. Like... do a scene about cutting fingernails or something next time. And then eventually you'll get to the stage where all you need is for someone to reach out and brush a stray eyelash off the cheek of their beloved, and you will be ready to integrate into the fluff-writing community.

Yay phew, I love the idea that Mary is a master of deadpan humour, I feel like that fits so well with the sarcasm and snark of Jude Law's Watson.

Loaded with sexual tension, that's just the way I like it :D

LOL okay the first thing I imagined was someone reaching out to brush the cheek of their beloved and... accidentally yanking an eyebrow out somehow, and their beloved is like "OW wtf not sexy, dude".

I'm utterly besotted with this 'verse that you guys are building, it's an absolute joy. The characterisation for Mary, and Irene, and ok I'm going to round off to bloody everyone, is just superb and I'm really enjoying the culture clashes, makes the whole thing even more believable. Stalking this series like a stalking stalker who stalks.
