Oh.My.God!

*covers the gaping whole in my chest*

[kat_lair]

Aww and here I thought this finished on a hopeful note... :D

[milly_gal]

lol! There is but still, my heart clenched!

[pushkin666]

Oh that hurts. Poor John but at least he has Sherlock to take him away from the nightmares. Excellent writing hun and very nearly a drabble :)

[kat_lair]

Thank you sweetie. I didn't think it was that angsty but okay, re-reading it... yeah, a bit of tellingly raw emotion there John.

My praise for this would be longer than the actual fic. Just the Best!

[kat_lair]

Well by all means, go ahead! :D Thank you very much for your lovely comment, much appreciated.

Oh. *woobies* That was heart-wrenching. And very beautiful. Love, love, love the last sentence in particular.

[kat_lair]

Oh thank you so much <3 Your comment really made me smile. Special thanks for pointing out that the last sentence worked, I love hearing if there is a particular section that touches the reader :)

So descriptive and painful with such a beautiful ending. I just love the thought of Sherlock's music bringing comfort to John.

[kat_lair]

Thank you very much! This was very visual for me yes, glad that came through. And I'm a sucker for the trope where music used to convey feelings so it was only right to use it here.
