Summary
“No, Mrs. Watson,” Sherlock’s voice is low and quiet. “You won’t.”
Oh, isn’t that sweet. He thinks saying that will keep this from happening, keep her from killing him. He thinks that he can call her “Mrs. Watson” and suddenly she’ll transform back into being the cheeky, supportive wife. The loving wife who bakes bread and loves cats and urges them to solve cases together and is just as stupid as she is expected to be. The kind of wife who can remember a room number or spot a skip code, but is blind to the way her husband and his best friend stare into each other’s eyes as if they want to drown there and never resurface.
What was going on inside Mary's head as she turned her gun on Sherlock Holmes? AGRA knows when Sherlock Holmes is fibbing, remembered what Sholto's room number was, and can spot a skip code; so what does she observe in the relationship that unfolds before her? What does she see in Sherlock Holmes and John Watson?

Summary
Holmes, in the letter I received from you I noticed a comma in the middle of a phrase. It was a phrase you’ve often said aloud in our past days. The comma you’ve included changed the meaning. It created a pause I’ve never heard before. I find myself unable to stop pondering your intention. You’ve written ‘My Dearest Watson’ with a comma after dearest.
You’ve written My Dearest, Watson.
Did you intend this?

Summary
Deep below the glittering waves exists a world unknown to humans. A world of creatures that are myth and folklore among humans. Merfolk. But one Merman longs for more than what the ocean offers him. The ever curious and ever rebellious Sherlock ventures beyond the home he knows in search of escaping boredom. Above the surface he rescues a human, a young war Captain named John Watson, from being swallowed by the cold clasp of the stormy sea. Immediately intrigued and for the first time feeling the ache of longing and the warmth of budding romance, the merman sacrifices his tale for human legs. But this choice brings with it consequences. The vulnerability of love and the pain of heartbreak is just two of them. Is caring an advantage?

Summary
John had always enjoyed Christmas growing up though the years. He loved the ridiculously festive jumpers. The bright flickering lights. The excuse to snog people just because of a plant hanging from the ceiling. When he was young, it was the one day his parents made an effort to be cordial towards one another instead having screaming matches. Later, it was the only time his sister didn’t get so drunk she couldn’t see straight. When he was in the military, it was the one day of the year that a sense of hope prevailed in the blazing desserts of Afghanistan. Now, as he was staring at Sherlock scantily clad in lingerie and nothing else, he decided he loved it even more.

Summary
"Look," Sherlock began again, "you keep saving my life. And touching me," and hm, that wasn’t as conclusive as it had seemed in his head.

Summary
The change had occurred, John had accepted it, and when Sherlock had asked, “You don’t mind, do you?”, John had answered, “No, of course not.”
In hindsight, an obvious mistake.
