*flails* Thanks a million for this, my friend! I'm so grateful for your support and encouragement all the way through this piece. It's meant a lot to me. I'm thrilled to hear that this ending rang true. *hugs you*

This is exceptional!

Oh, thank you for this! I'm delighted that you enjoyed it.

Whew. What a ride. And it sounds like there's more to come...
Thank you for the brief, to-the-point mention of the ethics involved. I like the way the question is posed, and the fact that it leaves the matter open to more than one choice.
Thank you, very much.

Thank you so much for this!

I conceived of this as a one-shot story, actually, so I didn't mean to tease anything that isn't going to appear. Apologies! But, hey, it's always lovely to know there might be interest in more. Never say never, and all that.

It really did my heart good to hear that you liked the way John and Mycroft danced around and engaged the ethics issue. It felt like one of those proverbial elephants in the middle of the room, and I suspected Mycroft would be well aware that it would be on John's mind. I appreciate your commenting about that very much.

Thank you, truly!

I know that I already posted a review on A03, but man, do I love this fic! I love the obvious bond between Mycroft and Greg and I love the idea that Mycroft is going to continue looking out for Greg and John both--Sherlock would expect it but Mycroft considers them both allies so I think he'd watch out for them regardless.

Truly lovely work on this fic :)

Oh, I can't thank you enough for your wonderful feedback!

I'm so glad the Mycroft-Greg relationship works for you here. I agree with you that Mycroft likely would watch out for both of these "allies" even without Sherlock asking him to do so.

You've put such a huge smile on my face. :D Thank you!

I had to read this as soon as I saw it was posted. And then I had to read it again later to take in everything that you'd written. John's thoughts and conversation with Mycroft are so realistic, and his realisation that the events will add to his nightmares makes so much sense.

And the epilogue where Mycroft assures Sherlock that he will look after the two of them; as he watches them with rather more care than he might admit, is such a great ending.

Oh, thank you so much!!!

John's thoughts and conversation with Mycroft are so realistic

This makes me soooo happy (and relieved!). Mycroft is a challenge for me, but I really wanted these two to have a meeting of the minds/psyches/moral perspectives. I'm so glad it seemed realistic. I'm also thrilled to hear John's thoughts - including his realisation that this night would play a role in his future nightmares - made sense.

And the epilogue where Mycroft assures Sherlock that he will look after the two of them; as he watches them with rather more care than he might admit, is such a great ending.

This makes my day! Thank you. I'm so glad that it came through that Mycroft was showing more care there than he'd want Sherlock (or anyone else) to realise. :)

Thank you so much for your support and encouragement throughout this story. I really appreciate it!
