This is, without a doubt, my absolute favorite of all Sherlock Holmes fanfiction. You truly have an incredible gift. To be able to tell of uncomfortable moments, of strained silence, of unimaginable pain is one thing; to make the reader feel it as if they are in that very room is altogether a different sort of talent, and you possess that talent in spades.
The dialogue is perfection. Holmes slash is a tricky one, to be sure, given setting and time, but you manage it without a glitch. The characters mesh perfectly with your pacing as well, nothing inconsistent or forced.
The turmoil of bigger issues pushing them past the discussion of their kiss...magnificent. I cannot thank you enough for posting your work. I eagerly await the next part.
