Omg, I think I have a new OTP. Wow, just wow.

At first I was worried, these types of stores don't always work out. But your story just completely blew my theory out of the water. Well done.

I love how everyone is in character and the story itself is believable.I wish I could write a longer review (for this story deserves it), but its 5 AM and I am sleepy.

Anyways, I do hope you write much more. For this is FANTASTIC!

Five am? Poor you, go to sleep and thank you very much for taking the time to comment despite the late/early hour!

Thanks!

Very good. Very, very good. In character despite the gender switch. Are you sure this is a one shot? *enables*

Yes!!! Thank you! I hoped I managed to keep it in character despite the switch, but I wasn't sure. Glad to know it worked.

As for more, I think there might be a coda in my head, somewhere, but I'm not sure. These things come and go. :)

Thank you.

That was stunning. Brutal, but utterly stunning. You didn't shy away from the difficult things, the ugly things, like the way Sherlock treats women or the effect it has on him and John. Your motifs, the beating heart, your prose--it has this rawness to it, a kind of truth, that made it feel incredibly special, like being gifted a glimpse of something spectacular. I love John, and I hated Sherlock a little bit, but I also understood.

I will remember this wonderful story for a long, long time ♥

Thank you very, very much. <3

That's fantastic. I find John to be utterly believable, genderswitch or no, and Sherlock is wonderfully in character. If the story had been twice as long, I'd have happily stayed glued to the monitor. ♥

Because it's my first story in the fandom, and that always makes me fret.

I'm glad you like it, and thanks for the love. :)
