"Maybe they wanted to forget about the men they'd last kissed kissed, maybe they wanted to feel something other than the strange numbness of betrayal, maybe they wanted to connect with the one person who trusted them who believed in them. Maybe they even wanted to betray the men they loved in some fraction of the way they'd been betrayed."- great moment!

"he had his impulses and sulks"- ha ha ha, that's for sure!

Love this: "The Holmes' hearts were small and hard and viciously dark, and there was only room for one in there."

Interesting to see who made the phone call & how Moriarty manufactured the evidence!

Very cool idea! I like how those brothers clearly share a mile-wide sentimental streak, letting their lovers get away.

Spot on. Can you get nothing wrong?

This is an amazingly angsty storyline and right now I wouldn't mind if you put John and Jane together, screw the Holmes' (ARRGH ANOTHER FIC THAT MAKES ME CHEAT ON MY OTP)

I love your work and look forward to the next chapter.

Have my kisses and love

Wit

nice I must admit to loving this(i wonder what that says about my twisted mind)please continue this soon^^

I love this fic so much you must continue on with it. Please with a Sherlock on top. This is one of the most realistic fics Ive read so far and one of the best. Please write on! You fantastic person you.

If your stumped on how to get them back together just have Jane and John go on the vacation with the Holmes' following them leaving gifts and apology notes and all the little romantic things you can think of. Just get them to say something along the lines of " I don't want forgiveness just a second chance to show you I love you" and all that gooey nonsense but in a messed up Holmes kinda way.

The way you write kick-ass John, it's absolutely fabulous. I don't know why, but this is much closer to how I see him than he probably is in canon and it's nice to know that I'm not the only one :)

Will this ever be finished? I'm afraid I can't see how this would end well for all involved, but if you ever come up with a good way to get them back together, I'd love to read that.

I, am in love. This fic had me completely wrapped up and drawing mental pictures, reveling in the utter BAMF!ness of both Anthea(Jane, good there, btw) and John! Good job with Mrs. Holmes (for a sec there, I wanted to as Lady Holmes, but alas, no). Brilliant job, excellent writing and characterization and consistent plot- I eagerly await your next post, however long it may be until then. Good luck, great job,

-SLF over and out!

great story! i do wish moriarty had succeeded( the angst would have been...!) but i do like how you ended thing sand im glad they didnt immediately forgive the holmes's. are you going to write a squeal? it was ould be fantastic!

I just found this story, I really, really like it, and I really want you to update as soon as time and inspiration allows! Please and thank you :)

Ohhhhhhhhhhh. I've been looking for BAMF!John fic all day, and this definitely hit the spot. Not to mention BAMF!Jane/Anthea/Rosy...

This is really amazing. Keep up the great work!

In the words of Dr. John Watson "That was amazing!" "It was extraordinary. It was quite... extraordinary!"

poor sherlock and mycroft :'(

I can't wait for the next chapter :D

The scence with Moriaty was a bit anticlimatic though, but overall loved the interaction between the four.

Please update! I love all the angest going around :D

I love this story! I do love a good dose of Sherlock angst. Hope you update soon!
