*squee* So glad to see this continued! Brilliant!

[rutherfordblack]

Thank you. I'm so glad you're still enjoying where this is going.

<3 Awwww! I see John is responding to this so well! I'm proud of him. And I want to be around wolf Sherlock. I have a feeling it'll be a little scary, but also awesome and if he'd allow it, he'd be brilliant to cuddle. <3 This chapter was great fun to read! Thank you!

I'm glad you enjoyed it! More wolf cuddles coming up. I'm trying not to make this fic too fluffy, but it's hard to resist.

Oooh, this is absolutely fascinating! I love the backstory you've built in, and the obvious mastery of genetics and medicine. I love the progression John makes in being accepting, and I especially appreciate the nuances of behaviour Sherlock displays in human vs wolf form.

Looking forward to the next bit!

I'm really flattered you enjoy this. I tried my best with the genetics, and it's still a bit wonky. There will be more medicine coming up. I'm hoping it's not too much world-building. There probably is a line where I should back off on the world-building and just leave the rest up to imagination, but it's too much fun right now.

If you have any thoughts or suggestions, I would love to consider your ideas!

"That the man he loves (if he is really honest with himself) is the same...person as the wolf in front of him. Just...looking different. Sort of."

I almost cry when I read these lines with no reason. they are just like the moon and the earth each other. adapt and adopt. awwwwww!!! lovely.

[rutherfordblack]

I'm really happy you enjoyed that line. "Adapt and adopt." That's a great way of putting their relationship.
