   Summary

   The journey is the fun, for Sherlock; the journey is the case. What comes after a destination, an ending? So he waits, and fills in the spreadsheet, and observes you closer than he has ever observed a human before; until you feel as much a part of him as he does, another consciousness in his brain, besides his own.
