In the Shadow of Your Heart - Chapter 3
Chapter 3: Mrs Hudson
Summary: England would fall.
Excerpt: ”Are you even listening, Mr Holmes?”
Rating: T, for now.
Author’s Note: Roane continues to be amazing with her beta-work - I shouldn’t be so spoiled my first go ‘round - and even found me out for being anti-canon with a delightfully esoteric fact. You’re all already reading Pull the Stars from the Sky, right? Well, duh, you ARE on Tumblr after all.

John says nothing after Mike Stamford says, “Yeah, he’s always like that.” Instead, we have this amazing little bit of body language: a tiny stumble, signifying just how completely off-balance his first encounter with Sherlock has made him.
Mr. “Nothing happens to me” may have just met his “Something.”

I’ve watched the first 25m of ASiP more than would behoove me to admit, but every.single.time my American brain worries that these cars are going to crash into one another. WHY DO THEY BOTH PULL TO THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE ROAD NO ONE DOES THAT FOR REAL.
The Ego Speaks, the Id Responds
- ego: No one really *likes* plot, or anything, right?
- id: No, I mean, heh, plot just gets in the way of the good stuff, nudge nudge.
- Oh, what?
- Not really "good stuff" per se, yet?
- Oh, a character talks about ostriches for awhile?
- ...

I could write for ages on the opening scenes to Reichanbach. Ungh.

Y’all have all that the discussion already that
the reason the Blind Banker script is the only one available because it contains the least Sherlock/John interactions in the entire show and the actual, living scripts for ALL FIVE remaining episodes likely contain stage direction that is Shippier than the Shippiest Fic Ever right?
Because f’reals.
I married the right lady.
