loved this at the fest and love it all over again here! beautiful pacing and structure, gorgeous delicate resolution. just lovely. for some reason Sherlock complacently stealing a piece of John's macaroon is one of my favourite things here. though there's a lot of competition...

Awww! Thanks hon! I also loved that maccaroon like fury (no idea why). Clearly it is a macaroon of justice and righeousness! Or maybe I've just painted too many ceilings... But I'm really glad you picked up on one of _my_ favourite moments!

I'm hoping to get this linked across the comms tommorrow... Can't believe we move on Friday! ARRRGGGGGGGHHHH!!! And then _no broadband at home until December_! \0/ This is my gobsmacked face... At least the BL has internet so I won't be abandoning you _completely_ for that long!

macaroon!stealing!Sherlock is so beautifully IC. something both cocky and intimate about that moment.

*mirroring your gobsmacked face re. no broadband till December* argh! but very relieved that you are not disappearing altogether...

wishing you well for Friday and looking forward to hearing all about it.

I love this, it's genius. The language it's written in, the underlying theme of warfare, the way it all explodes at the end into something else entirely (or really what it was all along.)

Why thank you!

*blushes*

I think this is my favourite of the things I've written so I'm particularly glad you liked it! It started with the image of the severed hand soapdish and just grew! This fandom is such a joy in that respect. Delighted that you thought it worked!

Only John and Sherlock would use a body part prank war as foreplay. Thanks for the grins!

This is one of the best getting-together stories I've read. I can so see it happening this way!
