Wow. That was really poignant. Lovely symetry.

This was an interesting look into Sherlock trying to pull himself together. Love the run in with John.

I don't know if this was your intention or not, but this line had me roaring with laughter, " She'd been sloppy, set up too many points of contact and never took his advice when he told her which were cops. Probably rotting in a cell somewhere by now. Well, he'd told her so." His penchant for deduction has no limits.

I've found myself stuck on words, too, and I've never done drugs. It's really annoying when it happens.

I like it :D Is the doctor John? I'm fairly sure, and am choosing to believe it's John because it's more amusing that way.

"For all his venom, though, he can't quite bring himself to hope the man dies." I love this line, it's a good place to end. Sherlock's note to self about avoiding black town cars is also hilarious.

Brilliant as always,
