This is so so heartbreaking and so very well written. I haven't read this series before, but I so love the way you write Sherlock and John individually and together.
I planned to review it all at the end but I have a small sort of observation to make: from my own experiences with genuine British persons (tm) when they say tea they mean the English Breakfast kind and not any other kind. I find it unlikely Sherlock and John would even have fruit teas in the house. When my British friend first came to visit and she wanted tea and I was like "Which kind?" "Normal tea." "Fruit tea, black tea, green tea?" "Tea!"
If this makes no sense, I apologize. It's 4 in the morning.
