                 ❛ You don’t need to keep coming here,
I don’t need you to watch over me now Mycroft. ❜

                 For the first time Sherlock had made a friend,
they had some  G O O D  times and of course they had some  B A D  times, but after the fall things were never really going to be the same again. John moved on from the life they had once shared, he married, had a child, and all that Sherlock had feared would happen came to  P A S S  and once again he was left alone, and he was rather convincing when he said that he didn’t care, that it hadn’t affected him, and yet there was still a sting when his friends name was mentioned, a  T U G  to his heart when he sat there in silence and as fingers tapped at the cigarette in his hand he reminded himself of the times John had tried to get him off the  B L O O D Y  things. 

               All of this and a change in his attitude of course caused him  O L D E R  sibling to worry,
why wouldn’t she have considering his past, considering the things he had often turned to in his time of need, but so far he had resisted the  D R U G S  that had once called to him, though he couldn’t deny that it had been difficult.

           GUARDIAN. sentiment. love. the world’s greatest weakness, the deadliest of all human creations, capable of destroying anyone without leaving a mark. and yet, here she is, in the ungodly hole that is the baker street apartment, and for what? when had she become so attached that detachment became a conscious decision rather than a state of being? perhaps it’s nothing more than boredom, the need to converse with a mind that’s close to her own intellectual superiority, though not necessarily on par. legs cross with nonchalance as she sinks herself into a chair, fingers steepled as though ready to delve into an interesting game of chess, rather than corralling her little brother.    as much as you might like to think that, you will always need me to watch over you, little brother.      

 

"All lives end;"

"That name you think you may have just heard, you were mistaken. If you ever mention hearing that name in this room, in this context, I guarantee you, on behalf of the British Security Services, that materials will be found on your computer hard-drives resulting in your immediate incarceration. Don't reply, just look frightened and scuttle."

"All hearts are broken;"

"Caring is not an advantage."

"As my colleague is fond of remarking, this country sometimes needs a blunt instrument. Equally, it sometimes needs a dagger - a scalpel wielded with precision and without remorse."
