    Summary

    “This particular fair would have a member of the Royal Family in attendance, regrettably. And thus, it was necessary that Watson and I should attend, if merely to gather more information about the Princess’ proclivities.”

    Summary

    The reaction of my own body startled me. I had not intended this, had not meant to do anything other than offer my warmth to Holmes. After a long, wearying hunt in bitter cold weather, he certainly deserved all the warmth I could offer.

    I was also offering something else, regrettably.

    Summary

    “Many, many apologies,” I said automatically when Sherlock Holmes burst into my room. Apologizing would do little good, but I couldn’t help it any more than I could help my nightmares. “I know it’s quite rude to keep screaming in the night, and that it’s disrupting your sleep.”

    Summary

    “Traveling as often as Holmes and I did certainly gave plenty of time for introspection. Often, we were too near others, whether on a train or a boat, and so could risk little in the way of open conversation. It had become something of a habit for us to spend such journeys largely in silence, relying on the comfortable intimacy between old friends to communicate wordlessly.”

    Summary

    “My dear fellow, interfering was a considerable risk.”

    “Well, well, I could hardly let my best friend’s sanity be devoured.” Holmes turned, smiling at me. “Now, might I tend to you?”

    Summary

    Sometimes Sherlock Holmes doesn't know why he's trying, when the odds are so impossibly against him, and his own mind is sometimes the enemy.

    Summary

    “You are exceedingly tense. I fear a massage would be inadequate.” For a moment, Holmes was silent, although he continued rubbing lightly across the sore muscle. “Would you be interested in a little gentle intimacy?”

    Summary

    “When Sherlock Holmes and I slipped out of the tangled network of London’s alleys, the rising moon glinted in the many puddles that stood testament to the afternoon’s rain. Crimson light reflected in the countless pockets of gathered water, turning the street bloody.”

    Summary

    We had been caught trespassing in the castle, glimpsed as we tried to make our way to royal chambers. Holmes had pushed me into another hiding place, a secret passage we’d learned about from an old architect.

    Holmes had given himself up, claiming to be alone. As they did not believe him, the guards had dragged him to the dungeon, bound him, and began to torture him.

    Summary

    Summary

    Watson did not mean to become a werewolf; he merely meant to protect Holmes. He can't say he hates the final outcome, though.

    It's much more distressing when Holmes is transformed into a cat, but thankfully Mycroft Holmes seems to have a plan to fix that.

    Summary

    “I had never been skilled at resting, for to rest seemed the most wasteful thing I could possibly do. Living on the brink of death, as Watson and I had for so long, made each moment seem vital and precious, time to be spent furthering the cause.”
