Wow…. Thank you! I…I don’t really know how to respond to this, your comment fills me with such happiness. I don’t really feel deserving of it. Thank you for every word, it means the world to me!
The nails thing…. Nails creeps me out, or rather having someone touch them creeps me out – even cutting and filing makes me squirm. So it was easily my torture method of choice and to me it makes John’s ability to withstand it even more heroic. That whole scene had to be told from John’s POV since I can’t even imagine what Sherlock must have felt when Moriarty asked about Daniel. Really the whole story, having to send your kid away because you have done something to put him in danger? Realise now that Sherlock has to send Mycroft a thank you-card (or five).
Again, thank you so, so much!
(…and no, I’m not done with Daniel yet, way too attached to let him go. We haven’t even started to look at Sherlock as a football-dad ;) )
