Somebody hold me.

I'm so glad to see you writing Sherlock Holmes again and this is beautiful and a little heartbreaking <3

Sorry? :3

Thank you, and I'm pleased it came across that way!

Thank you! I'm not sure what made me want to torture Holmes, but sometimes the draw is inescapable.

Oh, I've missed your writing! That was a little bruising at the end, but such a sweet, Holmesian confession that it didn't hurt too badly.

[queerlyobscure]

::blushes:: - well, thank you! I'm glad it didn't hurt too much; I don't actually *intend* to torture anyone. It just slips out sometimes.

Aw ouchy is right. Nevertheless, any Holmes/Watson or Holmes/Trevor (or both!) from you is glorious, so the pain was numbed by squee :P I love the feeling of Holmes being really cheeky (or impish as Watson might say) in this, it does lovely squiggly things to my insides, it's rare in a fic for the feelings to be one sided but for them still to have that trust and chumminess. I love that your Holmes can confide his feelings in his Watson, even when he knows they're unreturned. It does them both justice as characters.

Sorry for the unconnected rambly-ness of my comment, it's 1am and I'm half asleep.

[queerlyobscure]

Unconnected rambliness is perfectly fine :)

I'm glad you enjoyed it, and very pleased that it comes across that even though it's one-sided in this particular instance, they can still be friends together.

Wow.

Nothing beats sookie Holmes, and your sookie Holmes wonderful :)
