Beautiful! I love the lighting, the mysterious feel and how enraptured John is. The violin is a great touch.

Thank you! <3 I'm glad you like it! mahmfic's list had the violin on it, and I felt like a lonely dragon!Sherlock would love to have it with him :)

Oh my goodness, this is gorgeous! I love the mood of the piece and the colouring. The summary had me giggling, and of course, the expression on John's face in the first frame fits perfectly with the story.

Your dragon!lock is beautiful! No wonder John was seduced.

Thank you! <333 Well, Sherlock is beautiful, no matter what species :D and really nothing like John expected - I didn't even have to make his "OMG how lovely and amazing creature" face up, he looks at Sherlock like that all the time :D

This is stunning! I love the colouring; this not quite purple not quite burgundy and not brown shade either. It makes it warm though this world seem to be a rough one. I love how lost Sherlock is while playing the violin and how very much he is focused on John and the here and now in the next picture. John is so handsome here and his bum. *fans herself*
And Sherlock, gosh, I'd love to see a lot more of him. His wings are very intruiging as are the scales and spikes on the skin.
I love it. Thanks so much for sharing, MA!

Thank you so much for the nice comment! <3 I am especially glad that you like the colors, because I made, like, 28 different versions of it on the way until I settled on it :D I love all the dragon!locks artists come up with, and it makes me so happy that you like my version! :) drawing him almost-but-not-quite human is so much fun, it just fits him :) And, duh, of course John has a pretty bum (among other things) :D

OMGOMGOMG! *cuddles your comment and makes embarrassing happy noises* I was a bit worried if you'll like what I came up with, and I'm so happy you did!!!
Sherlock's otherwordly, pale gaze was kindof the very first thing I noticed about him when watching the show for the first time (I don't think I knew Benedict before), and it made me pause and think - wow, he is beautiful! <3 I'm so glad I seem to have managed to make that happen :) And pleasepleaseplease, story, there is not enough dragonlock out there <3

Gorgeous! Especially Sherlock with his violin, framed by his wings.
