"The thing is-the way Joan has always dealt with failure is to keep doggedly on until she invariably succeeds. But there are no second chances in surgery. Even she cannot raise people from the dead." idk why but this is killing me. and it's okay it's short! my attention span is short :P anyway, I love it and I'm gonna check out your other advent fics :)

p.s. - the dialogue is so great. I'm always in awe of ppl who can write dialogue that flows b/c I really suck at that lol.

I really like this. I think this is a very credible motivation for her, and I especially like the interaction between Joan and Sherlock; it feels very true to the characters and their voices.
