*UNDER REVIEW*


Sherlock Series 4 came to television on Jan 1st 2017. This is set after that. It's an AU which stands for Alternate Universe; the change to canon is that Mary does not have a child and John is moving on with his life after her death. Moriarty is dead and no more. This is intended to be a happy ending after the tragedy of Series 4, and hopefully the books too (Thank you to the late Arthur Conan Doyle). I wish to do both these works justice - not to devalue what happened, but simply to re-contextualise.

It is important to note that Sherlock Holmes, in this particular work, is neurodivergent.

Enjoy.

Simply exhausted of all colour. Wasted. I didn't lie down. I didn't blink. I just sat there, staring into nothingness, waiting for something to materialise into my vision. Something. Anything. I had kept Sherlock away. Kept him away from his death, for so long. So long. Little did I know, all he needed was a little jump from a rooftop. It wouldn't take me long either, would it? I wasn't going to die. I needed relief. I needed disconnection. Disorientation. Oblivion. Ignorance. Because ignorance is bliss. It was in my hand, now. Like vengeance disguised in forgiveness. Breathe. Steady. Hold. Control. . . . Now. Pain shot through my arms and my palms, like my nails were being pulled out. It spread like fire, like ice cold fire, still burning like coals. My limbs were numb. I fell onto the bed, my mouth pressed into the sheet at an odd angle. I was too fatigued to change it. Too drowned to change it. Drowned too deep. To change anything. I'd never done this. Was I going to die? It'd be better if I died. What would that feel like? Flying? Better that this I suppose. Don't you think, Sherlock?
