OMG LOVE. SO MUCH LOVE. You have totally nailed both Richard and Holmes. And all the Shakespeare! AND THE META. And that Holmes gets it.

(And the bit about the restraints -- that made me wibble. Poor Richard.)

ANYWAY. THANK YOU SO MUCH. &hearts

Of course Holmes gets it. Holmes gets everything. ;) He's just not very helpful.

Very, very glad you liked it!
