And then we'd be spending two years calculating the chances of surviving such a collision, reading fanfics about the Glasgow Coma Scale, Sherlock pushing wheelchairs and so on. Bit not good.

Well...we've already had John doing some emotional suffering when he thought Sherlock was dead...so I think the reverse would be if Sherlock had to do some emotional suffering too.

I like this idea xD

Is it a good sign if series 3 has not even completed filming and just the thoughts about the possible ending of it already make me cry? No? Ok, I'll try to stop.

I could imagine the cliffhanger could be John being accused of having murdered his pregnant wife Mary.
( "HER last bow"?)
Or Mary shaping up as a sister of Moriarty or some other kind of female villain, and John having to kill her. Or John having to decide in a deadly situation if he is going to save HER or Sherlock.-
Or John having to decide in a deadly situation if he is ging to save Sherlock or the Queen.-

Or John - emotionally overdamaged through the death of Mary ( who was killed by Sebastian Moran) seeking revenge and becoming "evil" himself and Sherlock have to stop him by killing him.-

You can try to write some ( Kannst ja welche schreiben!)

I really think it will have something to do with the death of Mary.

I had loads of fab ideas for the Reunion, but alas, doesn't look like it's gonna be anything like...

All your stories involve poor John having to experience some kind of awful decision or have an emotional trauma. He's already had to put up with watching his best friend apparently kill himself. I think we should let Sherlock do some suffering, now we know that he does actually have a heart.

This is some Holmes emotional suffering for you:

"No, sir. He has gone to his room, sir. Do you know, sir," sinking her voice into an impressive whisper, "I am afraid for his health?""Why so, Mrs. Hudson?"

"Well, he's that strange, sir. After you was gone he walked and he walked, up and down, and up and down, until I was weary of the sound of his footstep. Then I heard him talking to himself and muttering, and every time the bell rang out he came on the stairhead, with 'What is that, Mrs. Hudson?' And now he has slammed off to his room, but I can hear him walking away the same as ever. I hope he's not going to be ill, sir. I ventured to say something to him about cooling medicine, but he turned on me, sir, with such a look that I don't know how ever I got out of the room."

Then you must, must, must read Katie Forsyth fan fic! I call it 'vintage Johnlock'. Excellent stuff. Go to "The Seventeenth Step" - recommended earlier on the Johnlock fan fic thread by Susi

RAT hmm , two types seem to have stuck in my mind , Love Rat , and Rat Out , ~ to snitch . .

This is making me think of The Adventure of Charles Milverton , the famous blackmailer of course.
Sherlock gets engaged for a case ( that would be so funny , imagine peoples reactions ) , becoming a love rat .
For some reason Watson becomes a suspect.
And The surprise culprit of the murder at the end while they are hidden behind the curtain ?
Someone they really don't wanna rat out . ( may begin with M )
