Oh, my gosh. *tears of joy*

The texts (all of them)! The Harry Potter references! The sticky note the morning after! The not being able to say yes fast enough! Sherlock in the hospital! Mycroft being awesome! Anthea (you read my mind, I was really, really hoping something would happen and then it did :D)! The cooking! The first sentence! The last sentence! All the sentences in between!

Those are just some of the things I love about this fic. ♥ I didn't want it to end, but when it did it was so perfect and happy-making that I am reduced to being all over-emotional and flaily! (See, this is why I was greedy and asked for two. I knew as soon as I had one I'd be dying for more. Your writing is so addictive. :D)

THANK YOU FOR THIS! :D

jadksjfkajdskfj so glad you liked it omg. <3333 you cannot see how much i am grinning but i am grinning SO MUCH, okay? <333

THE HARRY POTTER REFERENCES ARE MY FAVOURITE i was like let's make clara a redhead just so i can make lots of silly harry potter references and have them be adorable together. :')

I AM SO GLAD YOU DIDN'T THINK THIS WAS WAY TOO LONG i was like okay, i can do this, just a couple hundred words! and then it just kept getting longer and i was enjoying myself way too much writing this entire thing and i was like OH MY GOSH I BET THIS WILL MAKE NO SENSE TO OTHER PEOPLE, but it made sense to you SO I AM PRETTY ECSTATIC. :D THANK YOU FOR LIKING THIS, ilusm. ♥

Oh, this is lovely! I love Mycroft swooping in and sort of shaking Harry - I think "Anthea" kissed her, not to tempt her into stopping, but to remind her of who she'd RATHER be kissing - yes, that is just devious enough for this gang. :-)

All the Harry Potter stuff is adorable.

Thank you for the comment! :D :D Yes, that's exactly it. They are so very devious, aren't they? <3

So glad you liked the Harry Potter stuff! Adorable is what I was aiming for. ♥

I really enjoyed this - the prickliness of the relationship between Harry and John especially.

(I've written in second person, and I know how mind-bending it can be, so please take this as a nudge rather than a criticism - a couple times you've got "her" instead of "you" - take a look at the scene where Harry tells John that Sherlock's in love with him.)

Oh god, thanks for pointing that out! I haven't slept in about 24 hours and I'm absolutely exhausted, so honestly, thank you so much. What makes it even more mind-bending is that I originally wrote half of this fic in third person, then decided I hated it and did a rewrite, and part of my jet-lagged mind probably still thought I was writing in third person. :') I've corrected the ones which I can see right now, but I'll read it through again tomorrow morning when I've got some sleep and see if there are any others.

I'm glad you enjoyed the fic anyway. ♥
