    Summary

    The plan to sneak into Magnussen's office to try and access the Appledore vaults didn't include finding an unconscious Janine, and it certainly did not include someone pointing a gun at Sherlock. Luckily, John's trigger finger is quick— but not quite quick enough.

    Summary

    Questions about Mary have become more and more frequent of late.

    They’ve told her the truth as neutrally as possible, just the bare bones of it all: Mary had a very complicated life and was made to do very difficult things to survive but she absolutely adored Rosie and was so proud to be her mum. Sherlock has even explained the shooting to her, although John hadn’t been privy to that conversation. Since then, the questions have evolved into far more personal ones, obscure ones, about all sorts of things.


    Rosie wants to know more about her mum.

    Summary

    Summary

    John took a long drink, feeling the burn of alcohol in his throat. "Afghanistan was simpler," He said quietly, as if confessing a secret. "All the horror, the loss… but at least it was straightforward. You knew who the enemy was. You knew what to expect. This? Watching Sherlock go through whatever he’s got with him, and being unable to do anything… to say anything? Braving Afghanistan again would almost be a relief."

    Moran chuckled darkly. "Funny. I was thinking the same thing. Give me a rifle and a clear shot any day over Albert’s mind games with his beau. At least you know what to do in a firefight."

    Silence settled between them again, but it wasn’t uncomfortable. There was a strange kind of solidarity between old soldiers who had seen the world fall apart too many times, just to be now caught in battles of a whole different kind. Battles that left them more tired than gunfire ever had. Battles they apparently couldn’t win.

    Summary

    “Well, Holmes, I received your note,” I announced sternly from the doorway. “I’m here.”

    “Excellent, Watson. I had wondered where you’d got to.” He didn’t even turn to acknowledge me.

    “What do you mean, where I’d got to? Holmes, I no longer live here. It has been thus for quite some time, in fact,” I replied, my tone filled with the usual exasperation that came with being a companion to the world’s most infuriating detective.

    “Quite so,” Holmes simply replied in turn. “A situation I mean to rectify this evening.”

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Watson is summoned by his ex-living mate and colleague, in the middle of the night. Will Holmes persuade him to move back to Baker Street... and what else might come to light?

    Summary

    And Watson is a welcome surprise, the consulting detective never thought he'd one day cherish a babbling little human that much.

    But it will never happen. Not after all the pain Sherlock has caused John.

    Summary

    Sherlock Holmes is an idiot.
    He’s never admitted this to anyone, only his internal monologue. But it’s undoubtedly, entirely true. He’s been an idiot for a while, yet only noticed it now.

    Holmes and Watson are back in their old chambers at Baker Street. The night comes, and so do the dark thoughts (but if there's anything to make them pass away, that's a good middle-of-the-night talk).
