Watson took his wedding portrait from Sherlock and returned it to the mantle. "If you're planning on telling some sob story about that sociopath I took for a wife, don't."

"I'm unmoved by sob stories, but one cannot argue with facts. Fact: Erratic or inappropriate discipline has been linked to antisocial behavior in children. Fact: Abused children are often unable to form emotional bonds as adults--"

"Is that what happened to you?"

"Strictly a case of nature over nurture. But John..." Steepling his fingers together, Sherlock squinted at Mary's scar in the photo. "I think someone made her this way."
