Summary
And his mind! It's like a plane crash, twisted, smoldering metal scattered for miles across a debris field, each bit of wreckage marked with a tiny evidence flag representing a separate bit of dread or guilt or pain -- or fear? -- all of it cracked loose from the same terrible occurrence.
There's a little girl in this hospital who is hurt because Sherlock failed. And at her side, there is a father who will never speak to him again.

Summary
The letter had been nothing but grief wrapped in barbed wire. Every word a deflection, every sentence tipped with venom he didn’t mean. And Sherlock—bloody Sherlock—had taken it. Just taken it. Because he cared. Because, in that maddening, twisted way that was his alone, he loved John.
Loved him in the way that said, I can take it, hit me again. In the way that said, I’ll put a gun to my own brother’s head if it means you walk out of here alive.
It wasn’t right. It wasn’t healthy. John knew that. But knowing didn’t stop the part of him that… relished it. The part that was selfish enough to find comfort in it.
And now, to think that it might all be about to end—this strange, fragile life they’d built—it made something raw twist in his chest. It made him want to slam a fist into the nearest wall, shout until his voice broke.
Because despite every protest, every denial, every stubborn piece of posturing, John had finally understood something in the past year.
He loved him.
He loved Sherlock Holmes in every way a man could love another man.Bookmarked by Lillliana

Positive Representation, Complex Emotions, and a Fictional but Semi-Heroic SecUnit in Media by BlatantBookworm

Summary
I don’t normally pay that much attention to the credits. In general, I tend to care more about the fictional characters than the real humans playing them, but this had caught my attention.
I mean, it wasn't the first serial that ever put in a SecUnit as a villain instead of a prop. RihaniLane Street had actually made their SecUnit villain sympathetic before it tried to kill everyone. And obviously this fictional SecUnit was going to be a villain, too, because they always were, but that scene was —
The credits said ‘Made and Produced in GoodNightLander Independent.’
Oh.-
Or, Murderbot has feelings about finding positive representation.
Mostly positive.
Even when humans try, they get SecUnits wrong in media.
(Not the murder, the murders were justified, but the writers made the fictional SecUnit like cubicles)
(It’s still pretty positive.)Series
