"I understand your fear of rejection, especially given your history with these things. Lord knows it was difficult being young and gay and socially awkward in the nineties. But you aren't 19 anymore. Times have changed. If you want to try having a sexual relationship again, far be it from me to stand in your way. But this can't continue

It's amoral!sherlock at his amoraliest.
So amoral that I was surprised that he was upset that John developed his desire only after the hypnosis. I would have thought he'd been kinda smug. Still stopped the hypnosis, though, since he's right about not wanting to change John anymore.
Somehow you make all the nastiest stuff fun to read. I may have become as amoral as Sherlock :-)

woah. this was fascinating to read. i can see sherlock as a character skidding past the morality line like he did, but im relieved that he realised his mistake lol. thank you for writing this. you are becoming one of my favourite authors!

See, it's that last "I love you" that gives me chills. Yes, John said he loved Sherlock earlier but it was a different type of love. How much of John did Sherlock change for John's feelings to change as well? Still, even with that, I am glad for a "happy" ending.
This story reminded me strongly of another story in which Sherlock rapes John as an "experiment." I think it's because of the way Sherlock thinks--he completely disregards John's own choice and excuses his doings by his own faulty logic. I'm just glad that in this story, Sherlock recognizes his mistake before it completely destroys his relationship with John.
All in all, I was very much glued to your story. I was unsettled and yet I still rooted for Sherlock and John to have a happy end. You did a great job on this.

Wow, this was amazing! I was sort of glad that it had a happy ending, but I don't think it was very realistic...but I loved how you could sense that Sherlock was going to let this overwhelm him, right from the beginning. This really was brilliant :)
