You do an extremely impressive job with your dialogue choices. Sherlock seems incredibly authentic, you’ve done quite the job figuring out what he would say in these situations. Very impressive.

Damn. Certainly the sexiest kiss I’ve ever read. Nicely done.

What A lovely story. Thank you for writing!

Ahhhh heartwrenchingly warm and...sexy. You’re quickly becoming one of my very faves. Your characterization is perfectly spot on every time.

I think this is the most realistic fic i have ever read. the dialogue, the reactions, the body language... The snappy remarks, the internal turmoil, it's like the script itself. I really mean it, i read some great stories, but for me this is the one that feels like the series and the characters. Absolutely fantastic.

I'm reviewing this story after I've read it. Its rare to see characters written so well that you can picture, feel and understand every action they portray. The way you write Sherlock, which is a very difficult character to write, is near to as perfect as Benedict would have written him himself. Keep writing, every aspect of this fanfiction is incredible.

Thanks for the well written story! I could barely put it down!

I loved it! Great story! I liked how you portrayed Sherlock's transition from the false sociopath to a man in a loving relationship. All the internal conflicts, the uncertainty... A great work!

Well, this was an exceedingly perfect fic and I can do naught but marvel at you talents as a writer. Well done, loved it :)

You are a truly gifted writer. At several points throughout this epic I was struck mid-sentence with awe and had to re-read it to savour its value. Finding that level of talent is not an easy task so I want to ensure that my appreciation is communicated.

This story got at an aspect of Sherlock's character that is very intriguing - his perception of himself and how that relates to feelings/giving in to his body when he's a man whose entire sense of self is centered on his mind. My favourite parts were from his perspective as he tried to piece together what was happening and what he wanted.

There was great tension and depth between him and John. I really liked how you got at aspects of John's character that are realistic but had yet to be addressed, particularly his desire for control in the bedroom. When the writing is superb one can experience the characters' journeys right alongside them and I felt in-tune with each of our protagonists as they rediscovered themselves and each other. The combination of lust and emotional investment was perfect. Thank you so much for writing this wonderful story. I will definitely be reading more of your work!

"Truly, Mycroft would make a wonderful Lady Bracknell..."

You have such joy in you. He's like... like a disapproving dowager!" He sniggered, remembering the play they'd taken Mrs Hudson to see. Truly, Mycroft would make a wonderful Lady Bracknell, although John wasn't so sure where he'd stand on the issue of handbags. Not that he wanted to know. Far from it.

HOW?! HOW IN MOTHERFUCKING HELL COULD YOU KNOW THAT?! HOW?

Good grief, this chapter is so much more special in context of what we just discovered in S4 of Sherlock... Mycroft did in fact play Lady Brecknall!

I've only really read the first part of this chapter but the way you portrayed Sherlock's thinking was Genius and I love it!

I come to this story again and again and love it more with every re-read! Your characterization is wonderful and I absolutely love your style of writing. Hopefully some day you come back to write in this universe. Peace!
