Fic Rec: There's Something Living in These Lines
Title: There's Something Living in These Lines
Author:teahigh
Pairing: Sherlock Holmes/John Watson
Length: 4676
Rating: M
Verse: Sherlock BBC
Author's summary: Two men, complete opposites in almost every way, who speak only in letters and pages torn from books.
Reccer's comments: This is a gorgeous, subtle story that stayed in my head long after I had read (and re-read) it. It has so many wonderful levels: the ambiguity of the situation, the angst of separation, and the growing tension between John and Sherlock in their careful communications. Blackout poetry plays a deliciously key role in the story. And watch for the achingly lovely blue Post-it note. Sigh.
