BBC Sherlock Fan Forum - Serving Sherlockians since February 2012 / Molly Hooper, Figure Skater

I wrote my first Sherlock fanfic a few weeks ago. I got the idea while I was at my skating rink. It wasn't a very logical idea, the idea kinda came out of some insane troll logic in my head. Basically, my line of thinking went, "I am shy, Molly Hooper from Sherlock is shy, I'm awkward, she's awkward, I love figure skating and am most comfortable at the rink, so so is Molly." Which of course makes no sense at all, but I thought it might make a cool story, so I wrote it. Basically, Molly is a figure skater and tries to keep it from Sherlock. And I'm an actual figure skater, so everything in there about skating is accurate. Or it should be. Here it is:

That's really sweet, Jayie. And a nice take on the Reichenbach story from a new perspective (if I may mention this).

Thanks!

I figured the Fall would be pretty hard for Molly, since she (may be) the only one who knows Sherlock's alive, is the only one who can ease John's pain with the truth... and she can't. The guilt's going to have to be eating her alive, depending on how bad off John's going to end up being.

You're right, that would be a terribly difficult situation for her. Well done.
