Your Moriarty is spot-on and super creepy. "All the nice girls love a sadist." is brilliant.

Thank you so much! Really glad you liked it! ♥

Very creepy! I love the seductive overtones, and the casual dismissal of the people killed - feels very Moriarty. He doesn't take any special pleasure in their deaths because he just doesn't care, which is so much more frightening.

"All the nice girls love a sadist."

That is just...I don't know how to describe it, except as very true to Moriarty.

"The way to a man's heart is through other people's stomachs."

That is just brilliant - perfectly sums up the way Moriarty views this thing between them.

And that thing about not proposing marriage on the first date? I love it!

Thank you so much! I think you've got me sold on "Moriarty: all about the twisted seduction!" :-b

Really touched that you read it and commented - it's an odd little piece! And yes, those mixed up sayings were a helluva lot of fun to write!

Oh - I loved this in the competition! I love it all the more, reading it in isolation.

I love Moriarty's cadences, his mania, it's all very him.

But...Switzerland... *watches from behind fingers* ...Noooo!

Thanks so much! *beams*

Ah, Switzerland! How will we survive the end of season two? HOW? Shock blankets all round!

Wonderful Moriarty voice here. You capture his creepiness and his flare for the dramatic. I love that he secretly built up the cabbie's immunity to the poison while the cabbie honestly thought he was gambling with his life.
