"Real truth is firm, unyielding. It cannot be manipulated. Only a person's mind, with its faulty understanding, can be subjected to such influence." He assessed me with narrow eyes. "You should know that as well as anyone, purveyor of romance and distortions that you are."
Okay, I know this is a direct quote (I copy-pasted it) but I can't seem to find this fic anywhere. It's cannon (ACD) Holmes/Watson, and it is not only one of the most gorgeous pieces of fanfic I have ever read, it's one of the most gorgeous pieces of writing I have ever read, hands down. I'm pretty sure it's pre-2009, if that helps, maybe from LiquidFic or somewhere similar? I have looked everywhere I can think of, but no luck at all.
