WIP Wednesday: Through a Glass, Darkly
Tumblr media
Coming soon!
It begins in an alley. Two alleys, to be accurate. John and Sherlock, chasing a suspect. Holmes and Watson running for their lives.
“There’s nowhere to go.” Sherlock’s calm voice echoes off the alley walls. “If you turn yourself in, I will see that you get reasonable terms. Your crimes are all financial, though I suspect that if we go looking for murder, we’ll find a few that can be attributed to you. Surrender now, and it will go better for you.”
Stepping out where they can see her, she holds a gun pointed in the direction of Sherlock’s voice. She must know that he wouldn’t come alone, that John is somewhere in the darkness, his gun drawn. 
“No thanks,” she says, and fires.
Parallel stories, in two different timelines/realities. While Sherlock and John run from Scotland Yard, accused of a crime they didn't commit, Holmes and Watson must figure out the mystery behind what happened in that alley.
Thanks for reblogging! ❤️

I was gone for one fucking evening, and you’ve been nothing but a whining git.
Seriously.
I am fine by the way, thank you for asking.
Maybe you shouldn't have left then.

TEH, part 3
I wasn’t sure how much there was left after the bonfire scene but apparently there’s about a half hour left, meaning these parts are in neat thirds.
I write as if anyone else knows what I’m talking about when these drop randomly once a year or so.
Sherlock remained more in focus from John’s perspective.
Still so cute how Sherlock immediately must hustle his parents out when his crush heterosexual former roommate shows up.
Mum putting her foot in the doorway in case there was any doubt who’s the “sherlock” of these two.
“Your parents? Your parents? Those were your parents?”
John who desperately wants to understand Sherlock. How much he would have wanted to interrogate them, I’m sure. But then he has to giggle at the absurdity of the Holmes brothers having such (seemingly) ordinary parents.
And then the hurt. “Did they know too?”
“So that’s why they weren’t at the funeral!” Because if they had been, John would have recognized them now of course. But also he probably thought they had died or something, making their existence as ordinary people even more shocking.
“Wasn’t working for me.” If Molly and John not mirrors then why this exact line. Why not “Well, everybody hated it” or “Didn’t fit me” or “Kept tickling my lips”.
Just saying. Plenty of options.
“Last night” “Too nebulous” goes on with the case.
There’s all the likelihood that, like with Sherlock’s survival, the writers just didn’t care who put John in the bonfire. They just wanted John in the bonfire. So that Sherlock could heroically rescue him.
And yes I was thinking about how this episode takes place “today” as in 5th November as in Guy Fawke’s Day. (Though the cool kids call it John Johnson’s day.)
Am I just that Johnlocked that I find it adorable that Sherlock angled the laptop so that John would see more/be more included?
Sumatra road is 28 minutes by car from Westminister. Definitely not below it. Gotta take some creative liberties for those sweet canon references.
Why hasn’t Moran just left town entirely? Oh well.
A bit of illegal breaking and entering as people walk by without giving them a second glance. That’s big cities for you.
I forgot how far they have to go through this.
Love that John got to comment on the demolition charges.
Ah, I get it! Moran still has to be in like radio range or something.
“Why do you think I know what to do?” Really, Sherlock? Really?
“And a soldier, as you keep reminding us all!” Sherlock why are you being so petty, you love him being a former soldier.
051113 is the bomb code.
I just love the line “Use your mind palace” because it makes me think of how intelligence is weirdly used as a superpower in media.
Also that you can vaguely hear Sherlock saying “off” as he’s panicking with his hands around the bomb.
John is so fucking smart but also maybe he also just has faith in Sherlock being clever enough. But anyway just cutting through the bullshit, this is a trick.
Maybe Sherlock is underhanded here. But John finds this sort of stuff difficult.
So here we get John Watson’s version of Dean Winchester’s purgatory prayer. “Of course I forgive you”
This explanation is definitely unreliable narrator. Sherlock wasn’t quite as in control as he likes to portray himself so of course he makes it out otherwise. But he’s convinced that Moriarty died but again: A. Singular. Body.
This explanation means that it was John that most importantly had to buy it. Possibly because close friend, with medical certification who Sherlock nonetheless felt he couldn’t trust the acting skills of.
I think this scene happened (more or less) and sometime after the proper end to the episode. But like even Anderson(Philip) noticed that the explanation is lacking.
Sherlock laughing like the utter little shit he is.
“There’s always an off switch.” Say that to the undefusable bomb. Although technically it did have an off switch, it was just too complicated to be tried without knowing the proper sequence.
Getting John to laugh even when he’s angry with him.
They really are the right kind of wrong for each other.
Mycroft being les miserable. XD
“Weddings. Not really my thing.”
You’re going to be planning and arranging the whole thing you miserable bastard!
A difference between Molly and John. She went for the suspiciously similar substitute, he went for (what he believed to be) the exact antithesis.
Oh my little lestrolly heart at Lestrade asking if Molly and Tom are serious. Although he is likely doing it because he is the one who would comment on the elephant.
“Real life is rarely so neat.” The goddamn bonfire.
They’re literally saying that the one true explanation for Sherlock surviving is that John asked him to.
“Time to be Sherlock Holmes.” *wears the damn hat*
Sherlock’s mind palace is certainly nicer than Magnussen’s.

Mirror
Tw: Graphic Depiction of Violence and Alcoholism.
--
John's eyes fluttered open as the bright sunlight hit his eyes through the bedroom window.
John had overslept. He sat up on his bed and held his head in his hands. It throbbed with pain because of last night's hangover.
John could feel his own bad breath from his mouth - not to mention his body, which was stinking with sweat.
John knew he couldn't sleep anymore, so he slowly dropped his feet on the floor, wore his slippers and got off the bed to walk towards the bathroom door and get in.
John had been staying in the house he had once shared with Mary in the sub-urbs. Even after her death. After all, he wouldn't dare to ask Sherlock if he could move back in to Baker Street in this pathetic, alcoholic state, would he?
John closed the bathroom door behind him and grabbed his toothbrush and paste.
He could not even be a proper father to Rosie. Right now, his daughter was staying with Molly.
John didn't even feel an ounce of shame dumping her there.
He opened the tap to wet his brush, and half-heartedly applied some paste on it before putting it in his mouth.
As John stared at his own puffy, red eyes in the mirror, the images of that day in the hospital morgue flashed before him. For the millionth time.
John's left hand - which was monotonously brushing his teeth - trembled at the image of Sherlock lying on the morgue floor and taking his brutal kicks and punches. Sherlock's previously beautiful face, swollen and reddened. Blood dripping out of his mouth as he coughed because of John's monstrosity.
John had thought of Sherlock as an emotionless, thinking machine a couple of times before, hadn't he?
Then beating Sherlock up in the morgue, with no fault of his, despite being in love with him ever since John had met him - what did that make John?
It was as though the bathroom mirror had helped John with some self-reflection, albeit in a cruel way.
He's not a sociopath. I am, he thought as he felt his throat tighten - not necessarily because of having kept the toothbrush in his mouth for too long.

I like to think Yujin compliments Herlock so casually and then it’s all Herlock can think about lol
Inspired by how Herlock was a lot moodier when he was younger but became goofier over time, def think that was the work of Yujin and a Iris

Through a Glass, Darkly by Calais Reno
Chapter 5: Same, but Different
Summary: Holmes investigates his mirror-life and meets his brother, a very suspicious man.
“What has happened to you, Sherlock?”
He raises his own cup and sips. At least tea hasn’t changed. “What ever do you mean?”
“You’re different. In what exact sense, I cannot tell. But you are changed.”
He trusts his brother more than most people, John excepted. If he ever returns to 1891, he will most likely tell his brother about his trip to 2017. But he is not sure about this Mycroft. He is different, and Sherlock isn’t able to predict his reactions so easily.
“I am worried about my partner, who has been shot.” This comes out more aggrieved than he’d intended. “What do you expect of me? My heart is not stone, brother.”
I have just passed a milestone: 2 million words written in this fandom! It was six years ago this month that I received my invitation to join AO3. ❤️
Thank you for reading and reblogging!

When your husband winds up dead, and there is too much speculation surrounding his death, the one and only Sherlock Holmes is hired to investigate.  There’s only so much that Sheriff Beau Arlen can do to make sure you stay safe.  But at what cost?  And how quickly can Sherlock solve the mystery...if there even is one.
