Summary
"Your life is not your own."
"Your life is not yours to choose."
Two alternate people from a multitude of different worlds, and yet the same.
On January 29, 2016, Sherlock Holmes tries to commit suicide by jumping into the Thames before being saved by a young woman he met by chance. The wounds by John Watson in the morgue only remind the Sherlock of his failed self, and of the deep deception that succeeded in protecting his true self from the other people: a self-medicating addict, prone to depression, suicidal thoughts, and low self-esteem. He knows that he has always been a fuck up.
"I know what's like to be treated like that."
Since the morgue, his body remembers even if his mind wants to forget and blame it on himself. For some reason, Sherlock Holmes is afraid of John Watson, even as he still desperately loves him. And John Watson doesn't understand what he did wrong.
It seems that the only person who understands is the woman who is trying to save him.
But do they all, all these actors in this tragedy, want to endure the journey in order to live again?
