Summary: Sherlock returns, whole, but battered and not just on the outside. There are things he's done, things he's discovered that he can't tell John. But the signs are there and it's only a matter of time before those secrets come out. Deals with Sherlock and what happened in those three years and how he copes with it now (mainly the latter), and how John copes with him.

AN1: This was spawned by a Tumblr conversation between myself and
silkmoth101 in response to
this amazing gif set by tumblr user
airdotcaptain. I would never have gone ahead with this if it hadn’t been for Silky (even if it’s not as long as she’d have liked- sorry, love).
AN2: Likewise, without
mialoco’s putting up with my constant whining babbling and random dropping of ideas on her I doubt I would have pulled this off.
AN3: And of course, my Arthur, who, despite not being a part of the fandom, put up with my last minute editing and second guessing, served as an alpha, and will provide a huge chunk of the hand holding once I post this, lol.
AN4: And finally a huge *hug* and THANK YOU to
tinnny for the absolutely amazing
art!
