Wow, I love the way you've written a properly human Sherlock. It does bug me when he gets away endlessly in fic or canon with utterly falling to eat/sleep/generally self-maintain and signally fails to suffer any ill effects. Much as I love the series it does have the side effect of ramping up the self-hatred because I'm not as clever/beautiful as the MC. Which I recognise as Very Silly. But... well, I am a model member of your likely audience. If incredibly slow to have discovered the series.

Anyway, more about the fic. Sherlock's italicised syllogisms are HILARIOUS (the humour of recognition, rather than funny ha-ha). John is wonderfully credible as a real bloke; and I'm assuming you went to Oxbridge because o fuck yes.

Fic thoroughly saved for rereading as a counterbalance to some of the more conventional and less healthy aspects of fandom.
