Resignation Station

[tehchou]

Frustration curls around Lestrade like an old friend, warm and familiar and sidling up to buy him a pint. Watching Sherlock Holmes pull theories and absolutes out of bits of string and different shades of lint and a bloody scuff mark on someone's shoes just drags that impotence just howling and screeching to the surface, leaving him cold and useless on a beach, the sting of stagnant water in his eyes mirroring the futile anger in his soul that he can't even detect properly anymore. At least, not as well as this maddening, insane creature who makes his life a living Hell. There's no way he can be that clever, make all these grand assumptions and infantile inferences, not without solid proof and inadequacy of the justice system in these moments just resigns Lestrade to the fact that life is a complete and utter bastard. With a scarf that never seems to move proper in the wind.

Not the OP, I but loved this! So much fun when you can just let yourself go, y/y?

This is how my chronic depression feels to me - excellent way to characterize it.

GDI - that bastard just has everything going his way. That's just like rubbing salt in the wounds. :-)

Augh, this is wrenching and beautifully done.
