Summary
I can't even stand looking at you anymore, John had written in the Letter.
But this is certainly a whole lot more of Sherlock to look at.

Summary
"Yes, Lestrade," Sherlock said pleasantly into his phone, blinking to the darkness. "This address, please. It looks as if the murderer's next would-be victim got free and fought back. One injured, one dead."
Sherlock sat alone, a dead body across from him, and cross-legged in a pool of his own blood.

Summary
"Love never dies a natural death, it dies of blindness, and errors, and betrayals. It dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings."
-Anais NinThis is the way love falls apart: by the smallest of increments away from each other, barely noticed for their insignificance until the sum of them becomes a distance too great to cross.
This is the way love grows: by the smallest of increments toward each other, barely noticed for their significance until the sum of them finds you standing face to face.
Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end.

Summary
“Sherlock,” John continues, careful and quiet. “I’ve seen your back. I know you were hurt. I don’t want to pry, I don’t want to cause you discomfort but...I’m starting to think something else happened there. In Serbia.”
Sherlock rolls away and sits up on the edge of the bed, his back to John.
“A great many things happened in Serbia,” he says, flat and remote. “None of them were pleasant.”
