omg this fic: Evidence of Life

it’s the kind of fic that i hate because it’s so good and gives me that intense twisting feeling in my guts because it’s just a really great fucking well crafted story and it’s tragic in so many ways but it’s still happy and it… it just gets under your skin and sticks with you, i think.

(warnings for explicit johnlock, and sherlock pretty legitimately losing his mind in some scary ways) 

Ahem, yes, very much seconded.

You know what I enjoy about reapersun’s recent art for fic I like? The details. EoHL has a line about “the stupid shell that was tipping over” that never fails to make me laugh—something about its timing in the fic and how it snaps you right back into the narrative voice—and look, there it is in the art.

As a note, because thesardine is indeed cracked in beautiful, beautiful ways: she maintains that this fic was not intended to be dark at all, just amusing semi-ridiculous island times. I can’t decide if that makes it better or worse, to be quite honest, but my love is all the greater for it.

Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesus Christ.  Also I love thesardine, but I had managed to never read that fic before and holy crap. *_*

Give me a bit.  I need to reconstitute my brain from pudding.
