I just died from adorableness! (Best way to go out, hands down!)

[patster223]

I totally agree, best way to go! Thank you! :D

This is good. I wish you would write the prequel to it.

[patster223]

Ohh, I'm glad you're interested enough for a prequel. We shall see, if I ever get inspiration for one, maybe I'll write it. ; ) Thank you so much!

I agree with your_icequeen. A sequel would rock.

Funny story, we're actually lying in bed reading fanfic, and I just turned her and mentioned your fic. She was all like, "I just commented on that fic; I told her to write a sequel."

So here I am, seconding her motion.

I think I may have to write a sequel sometime in the future, a few ideas are already kicking around in my brain. :D

Thank you both so much!

Totally adorable! :D Loved it!

And holy effin' crap! You're listening to The Antlers?!?!?!?! *dies of happiness* I was beginning to think I was the only who did. Hospice is a brilliant album!

[patster223]

Thank you! :D

Oh my god, Epilogue is STILL murdering me right now. I can't even with that song. *dies* Seriously, Hospice is amazing! I only know like two other people who listen to The Antlers, I can't believe more people haven't. They're so brilliant.

They really are incredible! They'll have a new album out this May, and I'm dying to hear it! It's just a shame that mainstream radio doesn't have enough guts to showcase artists like The Antlers, who really encapsulate artistry, innovation and passion in the work.

You know, I may be crazy, but I sometimes listen to Hospice and think it would make a spectacular basis for an extreme and dark Sherlock/John AU. Like, a few years post-TGG, and Sherlock hasn't yet met John. After collapsing at a crime scene, it's discovered that he has inoperable brain tumors, and they're not responding to treatment. His health declines quickly. Mycroft hires John to care for Sherlock, and John and Sherlock's relationship follows the events of the Hospice album, with Sherlock suffering from severe depression, delusions and horrible mood swings that make him physically violent and emotionally vulnerable in turns, and John choosing to stay and deal with it all until the very end.

I mean, seriously. When you hear the Atrophy lyrics:

Little porcelain

[patster223]

THERE'S GONNA BE A NEW ALBUM? *promptly dies of happiness*

Oh my god, I do the EXACT same thing! I seriously think of them when I listen to Hospice. And I would read that AU in a heartbeat. Guhhh, now I'm brainstorming fic ideas to Hospice because I NEED to write something to it.

*puts Atrophy on* Lyriiics. It's so THEM. <3

Aw, poor spaced out John. Small wonder Sherlock's too worried to be embarrassed.

Even if Lestrade is!

[patster223]

Poor John. <333

LOL, poor awkward Lestrade! He's all get me out of here, but still worried for John at the same time. xD

Thank you!

[fragileobject]

It's soooo lovely, thank you!

[patster223]

Thank YOU! :D
