Guest chapter 1 . 11/22/2018 No blanket for John? Also, John won't be getting out after all. |
Icecat62 chapter 1 . 12/10/2017 Very nicely written. You’ve captured Baker Street and the characters so well. I like Sherlock and Mycroft sharing space without the venomous snarking. |
Guest chapter 1 . 7/5/2016 I love domestic moments... and that is my absolute favorite poem so when I saw the title I had to read it! |
librarywitch chapter 1 . 3/11/2016 Great study. |
Guest chapter 1 . 12/19/2014 very well written..enjoyed reading it |
Fang's Fawn chapter 1 . 9/12/2014 The interactions are spot-on...lovely read! I especially loved the scene of Sherlock disappearing into his mind palace, and how the time gets away from him when he does that. I imagine him all still while his brain works on and on, faster and faster...you captured that perfectly |
SupernaturalGeek chapter 1 . 10/23/2013 That was quite simply lovely. I felt sorry for Mycroft when I realised John was right and that he is in all likelihood quite lonely, whether he would admit it or not. I was therefore inordinately pleased when John not only agreed to him spending the afternoon at Baker Street so easily but also that Sherlock suspended their usual hostilities and acted more like a little brother for the duration (well, like a little Holmes brother at least). The image of them both on the same sofa, jostling for space and having semi-silent conversations, was really rather touching and made me smile. As did your description of Sherlock looking like a disgruntled six year old when he glared at them! The addition of a rather domesticated moment with Lestrade finished off the story nicely. As always you kept everyone completely in character throughout and did a superb job with their voices. |
hrargleface chapter 1 . 3/21/2013 Read this again. Fell in love with it again. :) Thank you for writing it. Beautiful. |
ButterfishJellyfly chapter 1 . 3/2/2013 Oh, I liked this very much. |
Nectar-Ambrosia chapter 1 . 1/19/2013 Oh god that's good. All your writing is so perfectly in character. The dynamic between the characters are brilliant as always. Your language reads like warm chocolate milk. Very unpretentious yet clever. I like it. A lot. |
Coquillage Atlas chapter 1 . 12/17/2012 Beautifully calming, warm, and lovely. You really captured the feeling of a quiet snowy evening with friends and family. It was very peaceful to read. Thank you! :) |
RomansRoad chapter 1 . 9/10/2012 Excellent piece of work you have here, I really enjoyed every part of it. It's calm and very in-character. Very nicely done. RR |
fowl68 chapter 1 . 9/6/2012 This was a pleasant piece with a nice pacing. Not the most incredible thing ever, but then, I doubt it was intended to be. I very much like the way you wrote their relations and interactions with each other. "...they keep jockeying for space even though there's an empty chair two feet away." As soon as I read this line, I was reminded of me and my siblings, so I got a good grin out of that. Thought I'd share. Thanks for writing this! |
delxxx chapter 1 . 8/19/2012 It's just something else - this piece. It's mind blowing in its normality. Really well done. |
Guest chapter 1 . 7/2/2012 Great! |
