Squeee - You have made my Sunday night!


:)


Now - off to pour a glass of wine so that I can savour the Kiera brillance.....



ummm - thought I should clarify with the time difference - it's 8.30pm here, so the sun is well and truly across the yardarm.

Thank god I never have to consider the time when it comes to indulging in slash ;)

The consulting detective had looked at Watson and seen his past. John had looked at Holmes and he’d seen his future

Wow, how true is THAT? I don't think I've ever thought about it from that angle before. Everyone's always so interested in Holmes' deductions, but you're right, they're based in the past, and John has an equally powerful ability to deduce the future. Thought-provoking.

It was easily the third most satisfying moment of his life—the first being so classified even he can’t think about it

Cracked me up. An example of the many bits of wry humor sprinkled throughout this piece. ^_^

he figures he might even owe it to his country and his Queen to knock Sherlock bloody Holmes completely unconscious for the rest of the day.

Oh, absolutely, John. Absolutely.

Your voices for Holmes and Watson are wonderful, especially at the end there. I was grinning like a fool at Holmes' petulance and Watson's long-suffering weariness.

Thanks for a lovely read!
