An intriguing AU! I liked your use of Tarot, that glimpse of Camden Market, John cutting through all the BS by refusing to be Sherlock's weakness, and Sherlock's truth-seeing being such a powerful weapon against things that conflicted with John's essential truth.

This was a fun and clever AU. I love the way you've changed John's shoulder wound so that it's still what makes his life change, but not for the same reason as canon.

Now let's hope Sherlock gets back to the whole 'prove John's innocence' issue before Lestrade has to come looking for them.

UF Johnlock combines two of my favorite things, and you did a great job of it, with fascinating twists to canon.
I just wish you hadn't removed it from AO3, where annotated bookmarks and full-story downloads are so convenient.
