Author's summary:For a man who’s scared of heights, Lestrade has taken to spending an awful lot of time up on rooftops.
Reccer's comments: Lestrade accompanying Sherlock on various rooftop jaunts... this story skillfully incorporates the never-shot scene of Sherlock and Lestrade on the roof as well as giving an insight into Sherlock and Lestrade's relationship over the years, Lestrade as a steady, supportive but often ignored presence as Sherlock takes his tumultuous journey from troubled young drug addict, to successful detective, to someone who finally has the maturity to rebuild his life and his friendships post-Reichenbach. It's a sweet gentle romance, and a deft character study of both men.
