I like the juxtaposition of the garkness of the first part of the chapter coupled with side splitting humor of the second half is brilliant. I really am interested to see how Holmes will survive without his blogger. So happy you updated!
BAMF John with a Blackberry, he has bad days! Slimy Anderson, long suffering Lestrade, chain breathing Sherlock! Jane throwing up, oh the list of yays goes on!
Yes John has his bad days so don't mess with his PTSD. I'm flattered that you enjoyed the humour in this chapter. I was a bit at a loss of how to fit the dark parts of the actual case with the humour of the first couple of chapters.
I'm pretty sure Jane tossing all over Anderson qualifies you as the winner of life itself. All of the awards. I knew she'd vomit, but the fact that it was projected towards Anderson, makes it all the better.
John hitting Mycroft with the phone is just hilarious - that'll teach the Holmes to underestimate the blogger.
I love that this is progressing into case fic area, those bits were well-written and enjoyable after the onslaught of silliness of the previous chapters. (good silliness, but balance is always nice)
Many thanks for such a long review. It definitely made my day.
I think Anderson thoroughly deserved what he got but this is just the beginning of Anderson-bashing. I know the guy likes dinosaurs but there's something really not-nice about him.
Mycroft is going to have his work cut out for him when it comes to John and he's going to learn some new found respect for our favourite ex-soldier when John shows his BAMF-ness in the future.
I'm glad that you found the darkness of the case fic actually refreshing. I was afraid that people would be put off by the seriousness of the case and it would not gel with the light hearted humour of the previous chapters
As much as I love my dear Mycroft I think he got what he deserved.
I have to say that I kind of skip read the Sherlock bit as your descriptions were far to good for me and have left me feeling a bit icky! Indigestion remedy here I come. ( I know how Jane feels.) :D
I hope that its not going to get to dark or I shall be reading this from the back of the sofa.
Thanks for yet another good chapter of your story.
It's not going to get too dark because there will still be comedy. I usually try to put the gruesome bits in a light-hearted way but there's really no disguising mutilation so I didn't try.
There will be more Mycroft in the future - he's going to show the world just why he's running the country.
