*is overwhelmed from the awesome* It was fascinating to see how each character sees Sherlock. I LOVED that several people recognized his humanity, or saw a bit of themselves in his intensity, even in the most loving of ways most people are categorizing him, the good parts and the scary parts, the potential and the insanity; but not John! John's piece (The Bubbles! and the Pipe!) is the only one that is simply accepting, meeting him on Sherlock's terms. The whole fic is enlightening and honest, but that difference about John's reaction stands out starkly for me. And then the Moriarty was so creepy and awesome and Poor John! *hides*
