Btw, you might like this fic, besley. You could always skip the last chapter.

Re: Johnlock Fic Recs *warning - adult content*
I have actually enjoyed different fics I has read over the years, mainly for beta purposes...
even some clever crossovers.
Also, remember, I don't mind Johnlock in fan fic- that's exactly where it belongs!
Fan fic reading is just not something I'm really into.
I do read a lot, but either e-books or real books.

Coincidentally when I was sorting through my papers at the weekend, I found a postcard you had sent me- years ago!

Clueing for looks.
