Oh my gosh. I LOVE it. I love that you decided to remix THIS fic, of all fics, and you took my weird twisted thing and turned it into this, which is lovely and sad and you redeemed poor damaged John. :)

I feel much better about the horrible things I did to him in the original. THANK YOU so much for writing this!

Thank you so much - I am SO RELIEVED you like it! I know the uncertainty of what happened was an important aspect of your original fic. Which was brilliant, by the way. And didn't get less so upon the multiple re-readings required to write the remix.

But yes, like you I felt horrible for poor John, and needed desperately to 'fix it'. So, cast all the blame on Mycroft. He's pretty tough, he can take it ;-)

I loved it. :) I love that you wrote a fix it for my horrible horrible dark fic. I still don't know how it came out of my brain.

I love how tightly you plotted it so you never contradicted the original, but made it all work. It made me super happy. :)

I finally got around to posting "Agency" on AO3 (http://archiveofourown.org/works/867691). Would you be at all willing to link to it from "Unreliable"? Thanks! :D

Oooh, this isn't one I expected to be re-mixed. Lovely job, author! :)

Thank you! It was my pleasure :-)

wowwwww, you managed to make Roane's already-messed-up premise and make it even MORE twisted and disturbing. Bravo! That takes a special type of sick mind, sir or madam, and I applaud you for it. :)

(Also I'm kind of secretly delighted whenever Mycroft becomes the villain. Personal weakness. So good job on that too!)

Thank you! (I think? :-)

Yes, I'm none too fond of Mycroft myself, so it's easy to make him the bad guy ;-) But not too bad - he thinks he's acting for the best in a bad situation. And he cops to nothing, so I left room that there may yet be more going on than we know.
