Good heavens, this is a marvel. Honestly, I am bowled over by it. The action, the fantasy, the passion.

it is lightning striking a hollow tree -- I adore this telling of the reunion in EMPT as an accident. So delicious.

My fingertips tingle still in the shape of your shirt buttons—I have undone two already and I could still undo more. -- Oh my god. Just... Oh my god.

This is a stunning piece of storytelling. The juxtaposition of Holmes' desperate fights alone on his hiatus vs what happens when Watson is at his side, for example, is masterful. Or the beautiful section where Holmes cares for his knife wound and imagines it's Watson's fingers doing the work. Mmm. It's a piece for the ages. I love this one.
