Squee! You updated. This is one of the first fics I read and I realIy wanted it to be completed. I haven't read the update yet ( as I want to read it from the first again and I don't have the time right now). But I'm so happy to see this story continued that I had to let you know. Thanks a lot!

:D

Life is making progress on this sporadic, but I'm determined to finish it. Thanks for hanging in there!

Yay! They make progress! Slow, but progress.

Mycroft creeps me out. I'm with Sherlock - so good to see him using his brain again! Yay!

Yes, Mycroft...is a creep. I don't know why, but it only makes me like him more. XD

Oh, what a lovely present! I adore the Mycroft/Jim interactions; they're so deliciously creepy. (Hello, Highlander reference?) And it's good to see Sherlock & John making a bit of progress. You write Mrs. Hudson wonderfully, btw!

Thank you for continuing - this series is always a joy to read! (...though by "joy", I mean joy for me, presumably not for the poor characters. =D)

The Jim/Mycroft interactions can be absolute murder to write - two super geniuses who refuse to say what they mean, as they both try to mind-fuck each other into oblivion - but they're also really fun, in a creepy and disturbing way.

The characters are in for a ride before the end! Fun for us, not for them...>:D

I am always so ha-ha-ha-ha-haaaappy when you post another story!

The Mycroft/Jim interaction has continued to be compelling. Also, all the frankly weird shit John and Sherlock get up to. And the whump! And the slow recovery therefrom! It is all so disturbing and ... um. Have you ever read any of Doris Piserchia's YA science fictiony stuff? It's out of print now (still findable in used book stores), and she stopped writing before she polished things up, but I was (still am, occasionally) nuts for her. Your work reminds me of hers. I'll have to reread her to figure out why.

Thank you! I have not read Doris Piserchia's work, but maybe I could check it out at the library (fingers crossed).

I'm so glad I finally managed to get Sherlock and John out of the flat this chapter! I love whumping them, but I also like them to get off their asses and solve some freaking mysteries, too. As for the Mycroft/Jim...sue me, but I think they're a much better match for each other antagonistically than Sherlock/Moriarty. I mean, you'll notice in canon Moriarty does nothing but dick Sherlock around while Sherlock can't do a damn thing about it. Mycroft and Jim both have networks and money and minions. Sherlock has John and a bunch of homeless people: just not on the same level at all...
