    “Why would we ever need to describe each other to forensics though? We’re kind of famous,” John says. “And everyone knows what Sherlock Holmes looks like."

    In which John struggles to adequately describe Sherlock Holmes, and also thinks about his lips a lot.

    Summary

    It took a beat of silence for the words to settle in, before both of them realized what John said.

    "You—" Sherlock started.

    "I—" John said at the same time.

    Summary

    “And once again, you think you know what’s best for me.”

    John rises from the chair, the anger and frustration and hurt overwhelming him, bursting out of every pore, and he doesn’t even know for sure that it’s Sherlock he’s angry at, really, but the only reason he tied himself to Mary in the first place is because the person he really loved left him behind, and the woman he married once sat in the shadows above a darkened swimming pool and aimed a sniper rifle at his heart and later shot his best friend in cold blood and cuckolded him and just gave birth to a child that wasn’t his and right now he just can’t do this, he just fucking can’t do this anymore.

    ***

    John has to somehow rebuild his life in the wake of Mary's betrayal and Sherlock's deceptions.
