So Sherlock's his cup of tea, eh? (I'm sorry. I couldn't resist) This was adorable, and the only way possible I can think of for John not punching him in the face.

I love it. The dream sequence is a bit confusing, but dreams tend to be like that. Trust Sherlock to come back in a dramatic way. You created a great, heartwarming atmosphere.

Absolutely heart-warming and tender.

Perfect cure for my Reichenbach broken heart.

Not sure how I feel about this one. The whole beginning bit made me quite uneasy. (In a good way...? I don't know.) Though I feel like there would've been more emotion on John's part when he finally understood Sherlock wasn't dead. I mean. He was DEAD. People don't just come back from that.

But I really do love this. The dreams were spot on. Made me feel that... fear that comes with loss. And the ending was good, though maybe a different context would've suited it better. Like Sherlock disappearing for a good amount of time or something instead of coming back from the dead after three years.

Reading more of your work tomorrow~ Cheers. :]

Oh, I love Sherlock returning from the Great HIatus stories and this one was terrific!

Loved that John woke up to find Sherlock making the perfect cup of tea...and that John thought Sherlock was better than the perfect cup..to be drunk right down, too!

Well Done!

Oh, god, I loved this.

One thing - if I were in John's place, I wouldn't be able to go to sleep that night in fear of waking up and it all being a dream. After a break up a couple years back, I had non-stop dreams of everything being perfectly okay and fine only to wake up and be brought back to reality. It was horribly difficult for me to fall asleep every night, and I fully believe that if we had gotten back together (which would have been irrational, considering the situation), I wouldn't have been able to sleep for days in fear of waking up and having it all be a dream.

But I love the way John went from thinking he was dreaming, to accepting it, and then slipping in and out of accepting that Sherlock was really there - because it's truthful and real. Most people wouldn't just go "Well, you're here, then" after a while and just accept it - they would do what John did. They would check, doubt themselves, doubt their consciousness or sanity. And I adore how soft he was about it - even if he wanted to hit the man.

Sorry for the long review (or, perhaps, you're welcome? I know I love long reviews.), but I just really enjoyed your story.

I know I went off a little on a ramble. Forgive me~

I like very self-contained oneshots like this one. Love the imagery of the dream and how you carried over to when Sherlock was present. Tea is awesome too.

That was amazing. Not very useful feedback, I know, but true. The dream was vivid and realistic, and your characters were as true to the originals as possible, given the story. It was also just a really good story. I honestly can't think of how you could improve it. Possibly a bit more drama/action. Or John punching Sherlock. He deserved it.
