You do like to wring a person out, don't you?

So much to appreciate: Lestrade suffering because he was trying to find out what happened and made himself a target; John suffering through his nightmares and yet as soon as action is required the signs of trauma disappear; and Sig still protecting his friends.

LOL! I like to wring myself out, truth be told. ;)

It's wonderful to hear what worked for you. I'm so pleased Lestrade's search for the truth, and John's ability to move past his trauma when action's needed, and Sig's protection of his friends hit the right note. Thank you so much for your encouraging words. I appreciate them so much!

Beautifully done. I love the idea of Sherlock's friends slowly refinding each other, with a little help from Sherlock. And the details are gorgeous.

Oh, thank you for this! I'm so delighted you liked it, especially the idea of Sherlock helping his friends as they find each other again after the fall. I'm particularly pleased that the details in the writing worked for you. I really appreciate your kindness and encouragement!

Oh, thank you, my friend! I'm so happy that this worked for you! *hugs you tightly*

Wonderfully written, as usual. You know I love my Lestrade!whump. Just lovely.

Oh my goodness! So many wonderful things. I love the idea that Sherlock is watching over them in some way, so, so much (from your keyboard to M&G's brain, I pray). And John looking after Mrs Hudson? Gah, so sweet. You make the pain so worth it.

Thank you so much for these lovely words! I'm so tickled you enjoyed this. I agree with you: I love the idea that Sherlock is watching over them without their knowledge. I'm so pleased John's protectiveness of Mrs Hudson worked for you, too.

You make the pain so worth it.

What a lovely thing to say! I'm thrilled you think so. Thank you.
