“Love is a psychological and physiological phenomenon, made of synapses and hormones, endorphins and dopamine receptors, pheromones, experiences, commonalities, mutual attraction. Not the muscle of the heart. Inexact metaphor. Designed for poetry, not accuracy.” First person, present tense story told from Sherlock's point of view. Written in early 2011, prior to series 2.

John's never seen a kid like him. He has this beautiful, crazy grace - withheld behind a smug smile and wisecracks that make John frustrated in so many different kinds of ways. And his eyes; crystal clear, decisive, cleaning through the unimportant things to find the valuables in life. He may or may not have a thing for smoking and James Bond, his favorite ice cream is mint with a chocolate swirl, and he is absolutely addicted to Pop Rocks and toffee. He enjoys pretty boys and warehouses, where he can hoard and think and be alone. Also, bumper cars, and John Watson. But Sherlock Holmes's thing, his niche, his calling in life... is to steal. Books. Wallets. Phones. Cars. Everything you've ever wanted, he's had. Everything you've ever wished for, he's stolen. Everything you are, everything you told yourself that you weren't, he owns, and he plays you like an out-of-tune violin. Does that mean that John's going to let him steal his heart? Not a shot in hell.

It was madness, all of it. She was lost in a violent sea of judgement and 'goodness', whatever that was, and her only raft was a self-righteous chimpanzee king. How did it all get so screwed up? Caesar/human OC. Rated M to be safe. Set ten months after Dawn of the POTA.

The thick foliage above hides us from the suns raze and consequently from their eyes, I can hear them, they're so close now, their muscular bodies forcing the trees to bend with them and they swing from the barren branches, shaking the snow that rests on them to the forest floor. My lungs burn from my exertion, begging me to stop, but I cant if I stop I'm dead. I fought too hard, too long, and lost too many to stop now. I squeezed my arms tighter around the small furred body that clings to my own, looking to me for protection, I whisper that it will be okay. At this point, I don't know if I'm trying to remind myself or him... WARNING! this is a Caesar x human story, don't like? don't read!

Summary: A decade after the outbreak of the Simian Flu and over half the human population of the planet is perished by the disease. That is except from one baby girl abandoned in the woods...
