Love it! Restrained but packs a punch, just as it should.

Oh, this is awesome! I like the sort of non-linear structure of this, the dry humour and how John wants to punch Sherlock all the time but attacks verbally instead. That's the way to deal with this heartless bastard, haha! Great job, sis. :)

Thanks, bro!)))
I really had no idea how to start this story (even though the core idea - John ignoring Sherlock's return - appeared before the ep was released))), so I went for this choppy, non-linear style)) Like John himself doesn't know where to start)))

I've been missing talking to you and raving on and on about our favourite fandoms and such and since you've immersed yourself lately into fanfiction (which is, by the way, an awesome thing; I wish I could do the same ;_;), I decided to at least get my ass to reading some of the certainly lovely stories you've been producing. :3

Even though I am unfamiliar with the particular part of the fandom, I have seen the two Sherlock Holmes movies so at least I had something to lean back on for reference. x3 Although I probably can't fully appreciate the brilliance of the story since I am not much of an avid fan, I have to say that I am completely smitten with the sheer intensity of the whole story. It feels like a deeply wound spring that is ready to bounce at any moment if provoked. Simply superb. All the carefully chosen words are so neatly and finely arranged. Ah, simply awesome. :3 Gotta love your writing style, as ever! :3 ( ... )

I've missed you too, darling! <3 How have you been?
I wouldn't say I've immersed myself into fanfiction (if anything, I've immersed myself into work))))). I used to write more. These days I'm mostly trying to combat my original or headdesking over trabslations. But hey, where would I be if I stopped writing fics completely? XDD
Oh, I definitely rec this series if you haven't seen it. It's short (6 hour-and-a-half eps for now) and very awesome. Though I love those two movies as well)))
Thank you so much for reading! <3 Your compliments are making me blush. >_

I'm good, I'm good, thanks for asking <33

But wow, work eh? What kind of job are you working? You mentioned something about translation? That's really cool. x33 And ya I know what you mean, because I myself haven't been writing a lot lately. But at least you are doing better in that department, thus why I said you write a lot. x33 Writing is a great way to deal with things! :3

Hmmm, I might come around and take a look at it at some point, yea. But for now I got my watching schedule filled with so many things it makes my head spin. xD Been in an all-out anime mania for a while now. xD

And you are always welcome for my reading and compliments. <3 :333 You deserve them every bit. :3

Good to know! *hugs*
Yeah, they finally gave me a novel to translate))) And I'm a teacher now too... at my old uni. >_<
Why haven't you been writing? :( Writer's block? In that case, I do hope it passes!
My mania mostly alternates between British and American tv-shows)))
Aww, you're too kind, sweetie! :)))

I didn't know you wrote Sherlock fic or I would have read it sooner!

Anyway, this is marvellous. The characterization is great, I could see them reenacting this fic line by line. I love the dialogue, how John wanted to punch Sherlock, Sherlock being his usual silly self and then the final olive branch.

Just <3<3<3
