    Summary

    John has been fantasizing of someone else lately. Someone wiry thin even nearing his late 30s. As sleek as a greyhound and just as limber. When John looks at his podgy stomach, classic middle-aged spread, he just doesn’t think 'average' will cut it to stand beside someone exceptional like Sherlock.

    aka: how john learns through convoluted and questionable sherlockian means how wrong he is about that.

    Summary

    He can’t do it. He just can’t do it.

    No matter how damaged Brian is (and it borders irreparable), Dexter can’t bring himself to kill his brother. He can’t bring himself to kill the only person who sees him as he is—the same person who left beautiful, bloodless bodies out on display just for him. They’re connected in a way beyond blood and death, they’re entwined all the way back in the days of the Before. Brian predates the Need and the Dark Passenger, even if Dexter can’t remember it. Besides, didn’t his father always tell him that family is important?

    And it isn’t Brian’s fault that he’s outside the Code.

    Although he hates to think negatively of Harry in any way, he has to admit that Dad abandoned his brother, leaving him to develop his modus operandi and a particular flexibility for victims, as long as they fit his aesthetic requirements. But all of that is something he can change, Dexter knows that. His father taught him the Code, gave him something to cleave to when the Need built up. Now, he’s going to do the same for his brother. He’ll just need to keep a bit of a closer eye on Brian than Harry did—letting him get away could result in an innocent’s death, after all.

    Summary

    In the language of flowers, Dahlias can mean a variety of things: they can mean eternal love, devotion, and commitment, a sacrifice of time and energy, and even thriving in a difficult situation. But black Dahlias only mean one thing: betrayal.

    Or, in which Brian reflects on his choices.
